Orchid and Liz got all hot and bothered in an enclosed room with the
Oh, get your mind out of the gutter, it wasn’t a pleasant experience at all. The extremely flawed organisation of

on the 3rd floor. The air-cons are faulty, though.
Unfortunately at
No joke. The air gradually filled with CO2 and everyone started to suffocate. We were all “treated” to a sauna that we didn’t sign up for.
One hour later, at
Some mainstream reporters and photogs were livid (time is of essence to these people as they’ll have to rush off for another assignment – work is work, no?) and jokingly suggested that the press should just boycott the event.
I got a little light-headed and had to step out onto an adjoining balcony for much-needed fresh air. Before dashing out of the room and gulping in the rather polluted air of

With nothing to do but slowly die in the enclosure, everyone started fanning themselves while straining their necks to find out what the heck the organisers were up to. The organisers seemed all flustered and bothered…the heat (and much more, I bet) got to them too.

And after all that, guess what? The microphones didn’t work properly during the press conference and the sound system sucked…technical glitch? You don't say!
The sauna/ oven: This conference area turned into an oven after theair-cons stopped working. Everyone was perspiring.
What was supposed to be an hour with the press turned into a 15-minute session because everyone – including the
Oh, and here’s the best part: the MC of the day – who by the way was pissed with the whole situation as well – didn’t open up the Q&A session to the floor.
Yup, he asked all the questions (some were repetitive) and the press at large was not given a chance to present our questions to
What kind of a press conference was that? C.I. Entertainment seriously needs to have an internal post-mortem meeting after the dust has settled.

Aww you poor press people! The heat really gets to me! I couldn't imagine being there. I am looking forward to the interview portion.
wow poor thing. i was really looking fwd to reading all pleasant stuff upon knowing that they'd actually be in kl for 5 days, thats long! i thought the whole thing was well-publicized (much better than dbsk's in terms of promotion) up till now. i've been to izzy's and i can imagine a room with 100 other ppl and no aircond. that's the worst hongki has ever looked in a picture imho. and only wonbin and him were appropriately dressed for such burning hot room i suppose.
omg!!!!!! (im kinda late on this, but where's the concert? will it be in bukit jalil indoor stadium?) i need to go and stalk them

pleaseeeee help me :(
i really want a good grade >.<
~~~soohyun
Hello soohyun, and everyone else who is wondering what the national language in Malaysia is...yeah, I'm talking to the both of you over there :-P.
The national language of our country is Bahasa Malaysia...or the Malay language. Hope this helps with your grade :-).
i wonder what will happen today. as i type, lots of FTI fans are screaming in sunway.
Oh my, that sounds like a beyond miserable experience. The staff should have at least brought in some portable fans. Poor JaeJin -- he should have seriously reconsidered wearing a long-sleeve shirt that day.
liz, thanxx so much.
but ive been looking all over on the internet, but i cant seem to find a picture or something thats in bahasa malaysia. i need the word "Malyaisa" in bahasa malaysia.
can anyone help??
in Bahasa Malaysia (or Bahasa Melayu as it is also known as)it is also written as "Malaysia" if you want it to look a bit more exotic you can add the word "negara" in front of Malaysia. It basically means country but its written right before the country's name hence, negara Malaysia
what a bunch of princesses! couldn't bear a little heat? meanwhile everyone else had to wait hours for the boys to answer like two questions! it's not only their management....it's their fault too! arrogant koreans pride themselves from a whole bunch of nothing. it's really sad. makes me ashamed of being a korean.
