TVXQ Live World Tour 'Catch Me' - 18.5.2013



As we know, TVXQ has finally back to perform in Malaysia after 6 years. TVXQ or also known as Dong Bang Shin Ki – DBSK in Korea or Tohoshinki in Japan was the first K-Pop artist to perform in Malaysia. Even though now they are now only 2 members; Changmin and U-know (Yunho), the duo is ready to give their all for the performance on Saturday night.

Approximately 12,000 fans gathered at the Melawati Stadium Shah Alam for the performance of life time. TVXQ Live World Tour ‘Catch Me” in Kuala Lumpur kicked off around 6.15 p.m.  with their very first song that shoot them to stardom, Rising Sun. Even without the original member, the song was powerfully delivered and both of them look dashing in their white outfit singing the song while floating towards the fans. The song was followed by Getaway, Why, Hey.



It can be said that their concert was the best concert so far in 2013. With the elaborate props, visual effects, lasers and lightings, the concert was never dull. However, a few incidents almost turn into accidents. While singing Like A Soap, the fans was mesmerized when the stage was transformed into fantasyland, with flowers and mascots and Changmin and yunho riding and an aeroplane towards the centre stage. Changmin’s plane landed safely but Yunho’s plane suffered a malfunction and was unable to land properly, but no worries, being an athletic and professional, Yunho jump out of the plane and continue singing like nothing happened. Another incident was when Changmin almost got hit with the props, but apart from that the performance was superb.



The two and half hour concert saw the both of them performing more than 20 songs like How Are you, Journey, Honey Funny Bunny, Wrong Number, I Don’t Know, Humanoids, Purple Line, Destiny,  I Wanna Hold You, Here I Stand, Dream, Catch Me, Why and Unforgettable. The encore were Mirotic, Hiyaya or Summer Days, Sky and ended with I’ll Be There.
