" Ladies dressed in yukata (cotton casual summer wear kimono) are so beautiful!"
On Aug. 10, Jingu Firework Festival, one of Tokyo's summer features took place, where
ten thousands of fireworks lightened up the summer night sky. Kim Hyun Joong (26 years old) appeared on the live stage of Chichibu rugby stadium, starting from the most recent song," Heat ". He performed the total nine exciting numbers for 40 minutes, which would
be another unforgettable experience with his fans this summer.
❤❤❤❤❤
" Are you ready ? "
With his shout, pearl green lightsticks shaked all at once. Green light emerging out of the twilight looked so fantastic!
With excitement after young girls idol group, SKE48's performance remaining on the stage,
Kim Hyun Joong's live performance began with " Let's Party ", an up-tempo dance number which changed the Chichibunomiya rugby stadium to a concert hall.
" We have really many people with us here today. Can you hear me well ? In July, I released my second single album, " Heat " in Japan. Thanks to this album I am very happy that many people became to know me, " Hyun Joong said. Then he sang heartily " Heat " , he won Oricon Weekly No. 1 for the first time. (Maybe what this means is that its is the title track of his 2nd Japanese album which debuted at No. 1 in the Oricon Charts)
Big drops of sweat was falling down from his forehead.
" It is very hot today. I feel so hot by myself" (actually he said " achui " a sort of child word ^^). "Today I can see many ladies dressed in Yukata. Very beautiful !," he continued.
＊ He said in an interview that he saw a fireworks festival in Tokyo Bay Area whenhe used to live in Tokyo. With many girls dressed in Yukata, he was impressed that the firework festival was a sort of beautiful summer festival, being a part of traditional culture.
At the venue, many girls were dressed in Yukata which brought a chaste breeze. Hyun Joong seemed to have fun, different atmosphere from an ordinary live stage.
" This summer, I encountered " Heat ", having many promotion activities in Japan. Thank you all the fans for your great support, " he told his fans.
With his hectic schedule due to a new drama "City Conquest" in which he takes the male-lead, it is hard to expect his live performance again within this year.
Kim Hyun Joong closed his live performance with " Heat ". He sang a total of nine songs.
" Seeing fireworks together with you at the end of this summer, I am happy to have another memory. " He also enjoyed the firework festival. It seemed that in his heart, a big flower of fireworks in the night sky was engraved on one of his summer memory pages.
