WALK THROUGH WALLS

EIGHTEEN

The first people to sing were Jackson, Tuan and Bambam who sang the song that they had just composed,  GOD HAS RETURNED. it was fun listening to the lyrics of the song and the emotional attachment they had put into it. Then they danced to the song caught up by Usher. They were flying all around the room so much that I even got scared that they will break their legs. I came to realise that these three had something in common that made them so close when they were trainees, they were all non- Korean members of GOT7 so they had each others back. Their energy was just out of this world and they were fun to be around. After that, being that Jackson and Bambam were incharge of the activities of the karaoke night, he gave us the list of the songs to be sung and then paired us up. For the dancing, everyone was to choose his partner.

I had to sing with Jimin while dance with Jackson, Tae was to dance with Jimin, Kai with Felix, little Cai with Mark and Bambam. For the dancing songs were to be chosen by the dancers while singing, we were allocated songs by Jackson and Bambam. I was paired by Jimin to see who could knot the highest notes comfortably, then we, Tae, Kai Jimin and I had to sing a Quartet, Felix and little Cai had also to sing a song together. After that we had Tae had to dance to a song by BTS, Kai a song by GOT7, Jimin a EXO song and GOT7 members to sing a Stray Kids' song while Felix had to dance to a ShinEE song. I had to admit that this was a well planned activity indeed. For Cai and I, we had to dance to a song from Taiwan or Thailand. The logic behind this was to represent all the countries present. Wierd as it was, we went for Thailand. After that we were given twenty minutes to prepare ourselves. Tae took the opportunity to prepare some popcorns and soft drinks for the energy we would be requiring while we partake the planned activities.

We decided that we would do the singing first before dancing. Jimin and I decided to sing our favourite song Tears by So Chan Whee. It was fun because this singer is one of the best when it comes to hitting high notes. I love the voice and I remember it was the song that we normally used to sing with Jimin to train our ability to sing. I can say that it she is one of our idol. We decided to alternate the verses as we sang in that we sang three lines each. The chorus we sung together. We decided not to harmonize because we wanted to make it seem that one person was singing it.

A mu il do nae ken up nun ko ya
Cho um bu to you rin mo run ko ya
Wo non ku rot ke nal po nae jul su up ket ni
Ee je ra do na rul ee jo ya hae

Chorus

Chorus
Cha ra ri na rul mi wo hae

Mo dun ke jip cha kin girl no do al ko it ja na
Ji do ket don sa rang ta win
Mo du ji wo bo ryo jwo
Kil jin a nul ko ya ma ji mak sun kan ka ji sa rang hae

After singing, we got applauses from the rest and Tae even commented that he thought we would have choked with all the shouting. This was a big tick for me being that am about to go to a competition that I believe I will meet the crème da la crème of different production houses. Jackson walked to me and started examining my neck confirming if everything was perfect. Afterwards, we walked out of the stage to give room for the next performers who were Felix and little Cai who decided to sing Take me to church by Hozier. Their singing was just out of this world. They decided to harmonize their voices. Listening to them just made me understand why Cai was among the best competitors of the music contest we were in.
