With a full house, South Korean boy group, GOT7 take over Los Angeles on July 10 & 11!
HypnoticAsia attended the first night of their Los Angeles stop on July 10, 2016. With a two week tour in the USA and seven shows with SubKulture Entertainment, the 7 member boy group showcase their ultimate talent and dedication to music. After visiting cities like Atlanta, Chicago, Dallas, and New York, GOT7 end their tour with two last shows in Los Angeles, home of member, Mark Tuan. Born and raised in Southern California, Mark’s family and friends where all present at the event, taking over the middle section of balcony and showing their love for the group on the first day of the Los Angeles stop. Mark’s happiness to be back home was clearly seen.
The group sang some of their hit tracks, including their debut track “Girls Girls Girls”, “A”, “Just Right” and their latest tracks “Fly” and “Home Run”. They even mentioned some of their favorite tracks and many of them chose “Home Run”. Also at this concert, they performed some fan favorites like “I Like You”, “Bounce”, “Back To Me” and many more. The real Los Angeles favorite was when the boys performed “Rewind” off their latest album, Flight Log: Departure. The crowd was really hyped during this song and we even got to see their choreography for the first time.
Mark, JB, Jackson, Junior, Youngjae, BamBam, and Yugyeom were all excited to be in Los Angeles as they spoke with fans in English and told stories of their time on tour; what they ate – Pink’s Hotdog; dance class – Yugyeom even showcased many of his dance moves on stage. The GOT7 members even remembered to tell their fans to just be themselves.
GOT7 performed some special stages starting with JB and Youngjae who performed their ballad track “1:31 am”, “Higher” which is fun dance track sung by Junior and Mark and lastly, the hip-hop stage of “We Only Live Once” performed by Jackson, BamBam and Yugyeom. These boys also had sexy dance time, making Mark do all types of dances even with his family in the crowd.
They ended their concert with a Spin the Wheel mission where fans in the crowd had to dance to GOT7 songs. The boys came back out for their encore which included a few songs like “Confession Song” which had everyone singing along, “Fly (Remix Version)” and more. After “Confession Song” was over, the Jackson and BamBam started yelling “Merry Christmas”, “Happy Halloween”, “Happy Thanksgiving” but Jackson gets the last word and ends it with an amazing “HAPPY LOS ANGELES” which the audience was happy to hear. BamBam even joked saying, “so random”.
