Chapter 46

5 Pieces' Magnae (5)

5P_HANNAH: The last day of 2011, everyone please spend it with a lot of joy and laughter!

The whole day is spent rehearsing for MBC Gayo Daejun. Hannah is excited with her members about the show, and when they are backstage they are really having a lot of fun with the other artists. SHINee is there too, so Taemin wants to try a new game on his cell phone so he basically appeared now and then to ask weird questions with his face stuck in his phone.

No matter how fun they all have backstage, Hannah’s number one priority is practicing. Because they will perform a dance special with SHINee, Hannah is nervously going through the choreography over and over again in fear she will totally mess up. The choreography is very stylish and cool, and because Hannah will dance with Taemin (who is a great dancer) she is worried that she will ruin it.

During the rehearsal of the song, Hannah and Taemin are both seriously practicing on the stage before the music starts. Taemin is always saying something when practicing without music, and this time he is saying ‘dum, dum, dum’ for every movement. It does help since both of them moves at the rhythm of what he is saying.

Behind them also Minho starts to go through the choreography while waiting for Maria to come running up.

Both groups are on the stage and listening to the staff telling them some details. Hannah and Taemin are in the middle of the five couples, though Hannah keeps glancing at Jonghyun and he keeps glancing at her. Hannah knows that it is because Taemin is the dancer in SHINee that they are standing in the middle – she would prefer one of the other positions. The music starts a few minutes later and they can do the rehearsal.

The rehearsal goes well. Thanks to Taemin, Hannah didn’t do any mistakes.

On the way off the stage to let the others rehearse, Jonghyun comes up behind Hannah and slinks in his hand in hers. She looks over her shoulder just to make sure it’s him and they smile at each other warmly before his hand leaves her. After all, they can easily be caught like this.

When the rehearsals have ended, everyone is preparing for the red carpet.

5 Pieces gets dressed in matching wine red and black outfits. Hannah has a wine red coloured slim-fit lace top to a pair of black sheer tights and beautiful black platform pumps that make her feet hurt after ten minutes even if the heel is only 8cm. It is a y outfit even if the lace sleeves are long and she isn’t showing much skin at all. The lace top is making a wonder with her body, making it look a little slimmer without loosing her glamorous charm that is such a big talk.

The red carpet starts and 5 Pieces are one of the first to arrive because of their schedule. They look very stylish on the red carpet but for some reason Hannah feels a little lost. She keeps thinking of what she has to do after the red carpet, so on several pictures she looks a little lost.

Carolina starts her radio the moment they come backstage, walking in to a room next to the waiting room that everyone will pass later. Another radio DJ at the actual radio studio started the radio program at its actual starting time so just like planned, the two of them shift when Carolina comes backstage. The radio program has fixed the room just for this, and since the radio program is often filmed live for their homepage, it is that now in the room too.

”Oh, look who just walked outside our door!” Carolina says on the radio and she waves at the one looking inside the room. “It’s the shy girls – Secret!”

Carolina does extremely well when introducing the artists and interviewing them about Gayo Daejun and New Year. Listeners really like it, because Carolina almost grabs whoever walks outside the door beside from those that already are planned for interviews. B2ST’s Doojoon even sits down with her for several minutes, remembering the time when the two of them were DJ’s together.

Hannah and Amber walked by too earler, just to see how it is going. They smiles and waves cutely to the cameras filming to greet all the listeners and viewers before Carolina mention them on the radio.

“f(x)’s Amber and 5 Pieces’ Hannah have stopped by,” Carolina says and lets them introduce themselves.

“We just came by to see how it is going for you,” Hannah says with her hands on Carolina’s shoulder.

Hannah then has to go change her clothes. She just changes the top to a long sleeve cowl-neck knit dress in black and heels to another pair of pumps, so the sheer tights are still on.

“Hannah, we have to leave now,” Manager Kim says by the door and Hannah follows her outside, just to be met by Honggi standing out there. None of them says anything to each other while following Manager Kim to the car. Not until they are sitting in the van.

“Can I talk?” Honggi whispers to her.

They are both sitting behind the front seats of the van with Manager Kim at the front.

“No,” Hannah coldly answers and looks out the window. Honggi sighs. He is very careful, because the two of them will perform [Endless Love] at SBS Drama Awards and he doesn’t want to make her more anger than what she is so they will ruin the performance.

So in silence they head to the awards that already have begun. Manager Kim keeps glancing back at them in the mirror, worried about the performance because the two at the back doesn’t say a single more word to each other. And Manager Kim also knows that Hannah has been avoiding Honggi the whole day during the rehearsals. Manager Kim also heard from Mi Young that Hannah had earlier in the day even run through the corridor when seeing Honggi.

They reach the drama awards and a staff member walks with them, explaining how it will be and everything since they didn’t have time to go for the rehearsal during the day. They stop behind the stage, watching the first awards being handed out. Kim Jaejoong is one of them and Hannah is happily smiling when hearing him say his speech. Since they are backstage, they meet some of the actors/actresses that will hand out the awards and Hannah is awkwardly greeting everyone; she isn’t used to be around actors/actresses.

The first award has been handed out when the MCs introduces the stage performance, [Endless Love] by FT Island’s Honggi and 5 Pieces’ Hannah. While they introduces, the two idols walks up on the stage to take positions that have been marked out for them and there is also staff at the front waving their hands at where they should go.

Hannah has come back to the dressing-room at MBC Gayo Daejun and she just changed back to the lace top and heels she wore at the red carpet. She has missed the whole beginning of the music festival, even Donghae and Eunhyuk’s stage.

She is quiet now, barely glancing at Jonghyun when he asks how the performance at Drama Awards went.

In the van on the way back after the performance, Honggi couldn’t be quiet anymore. He took it as his only chance to talk to her, because Hannah seems to have no problem with avoiding him. He hadn’t cared that Manager Kim sat at the front seat and could very well hear them, though he started off whispering.

“Forget everything I’ve said, Hannah,” he whispers, leaning a little over his seat so she can hear it. Hannah shows no reaction. “I can’t take that you are avoiding me, please say something.”

Hannah looks at him, looking upset but yet calm.

“I can’t forget what you’ve said,” she tells him.

“Then at least forgive me,” he whispers.

“I can’t,” Hannah whispers. “I can’t stand being your friend anymore, Honggi, no matter how much I like you. You ruined our friendship all by yourself, so I won’t forgive you.”

“Do you need time to forgive me? I can leave you alone for some time; just tell me that you won’t avoid me.” Honggi is still whispering and how he talks makes Hannah unable to get that angry she easily gets. But she still doesn’t know what to say to make him understand, so she says the easiest and probably meanest thing she can:

“I don’t want to forgive you and I don’t want to be your friend.” She gets quiet when looking at his face. It really hurt to say it, and it hurts even more when seeing his face. She can’t leave with those words; it would ear her up inside. “I won’t avoid you if you won’t bring it up. Maybe with time I will forgive you, but now I don’t want anything to do with you.”

Ever since coming back, Hannah has been nervous. One part of her wants to just apologize while the other part of her is angry. She reminds herself that it is his fault, that their friendship was ruined because he couldn’t stop being a jerk at times. She nods at herself, agreeing to her thoughts.

“What are you nodding at?” Jonghyun smiles and sits down next to her. Hannah gives a weird smile back.

“Myself,” she answers and sighs. She gives a better smile when looking at him and sees that he looks a little worried. He is caressing her back in his own way to comfort her.

“It didn’t go well with Honggi, I guess?” he asks. “I talked to him a few minutes ago, and he said he would give you some time to forgive him. We don’t have to talk about this now, so put on a real smile and have fun the last few hours of 2011.”

Hannah does smile at him and she puts her arms around him in a hug.

“I’m the best, aren’t I?” Jonghyun whispers in her ear while hugging and she gives a laugh that makes him smile even more. It’s just how he wants to see her; smiling. Hannah takes his advice and stops to think of Honggi and instead prepares for the first performance.

5 Pieces and SHINee are together backstage, waiting for their turn to go up. The girls are wearing the same clothes as they did at the red carpet, so Hannah is wearing the lace top and pumps. Nervously she shakes her hands when watching the current performance, and she smiles at the others who also are waiting.

SISTAR is performing and before theirs ends, 5 Pieces and SHINee walk up on one of the other stages that has been prepared. Hannah taps Taemin on the shoulder when they are walking to take their positions and she is nervously looking over the audience that is currently watching SISTAR but there are some that have taken notice of the idols taking their positions on the dark stage.

Hannah and Taemin does high five just a few seconds before their performance starts. Her heart is beating so fast by the thought of dancing with SHINee. They have done it once before during SHINee’s [Juliette], but it was just a brief performance.

Jason Derulo’s [It Girl] (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EKcnSed1Zw4) starts to play. The first seconds, Hannah and Taemin walks a few steps forward to take the main spot with the other members behind them. They are all standing in their couples in the line they have practiced for. Hannah and Taemin both do one movement during ‘under rocks’ in *I’ve been looking under rocks* and then another movement for ‘breaking locks’. They do a very soft dance, just the two of them next to each other while facing the audience.

The audience started to cheer the moment their stage lightened up.

Taemin and Hannah dances alone for about 20 seconds before Carolina and Key joins in. All four of them starts to do the same dance, one foot gliding back and Hannah can feel Taemin carefully holding her wrist when they do the next move.

All five couples does the chorus together and Hannah smiles at how everything around them shines up in colours and when they dances to *I just wanna rock all night long*, moving their hips from side to side while charismatically moving their legs the audience screams so loudly. Hannah has her hand on Taemin’s shoulder, standing a step behind him just like the other members are doing when dancing that move. The audience gets wild and Hannah can imagine how Taemin bites his lip at that part – he always did it during practice.

The short dance without any lyrics after the chorus also gets a wild reaction as those moves are more extreme than the soft they did during *rock all night*. Hannah smiles when the next part comes and she steps back as it is Maria + Minho, Emelia + Onew and Julia + Jonghyun who takes that part. Standing behind them on the stage, watching them dance makes her unable to stop looking at Jonghyun who dances with Julia. He takes her hand, moving closer to her while it is Maria and Minho who takes everyone else’s attention. Minho had been wearing a hat, and in the dance he coolly puts it on Maria – just imagine how the audience screamed at that!

The others join in and the girls take a step forward to dance with the boys behind them. The next time *rock all night long* they are doing it even closer. But the whole performance is so fun because whenever the couples’s touches – which are often, hand touching hand, hand touching shoulder, hand touching waist and so on – the audience screams. It is a little intimate in a fun way as they can’t help but to smile at some of the fun dance parts. In the end: they just rock the stage and the song.

Hannah bows after their performance has ended and she happily gets a hug from Taemin when they get backstage, both congratulating each other for making such a good performance together. Hannah gives a laugh when someone puts a hat on her head and she looks up to see Emelia smirking down at her.

Without a rush, Hannah is social with some friends backstage. They chat and takes photos together, watching the other performances that interests them and also starts to count down for the New Year. Everyone backstage has started to celebrate the end of the year. 5 Pieces gets dressed in their Doll Outfit for [I Love You]. Just when they are done, f(x) looks inside their room to say they are heading to the stage.

Hannah runs with her members to the stage, seeing artists already gathering on the one in the middle and they follows along to join them. Hannah greets B1A4 and Wonder Girls on the way before Julia takes her hand and they walk over to stand behind Super Junior, next to f(x). Hannah is standing with her arm around Julia’s and they look behind them to greet the artists standing there. The clock is ticking down the final minute of 2011 and Hannah is starting to jump around when Sulli stands next to her.

“10! 9! 8!”

Hannah is laughing because she really can’t count down in Korean, so when she messes up 8 Sulli laughs next to her. Hannah holds on to Julia’s arm.

“4! 3!”

“5 Pieces!” Maria calls to her members and the five of them puts their hands together as well as they can in the crowd.

“1!” everyone shouts

“HAPPY NEW YEAR!” the girls call for each other and hugs before applauding and celebrating with everyone.

Hannah keeps laughing when SHINee makes their way between them and Maria forces herself between them too so she can go stand next to Sungmin and Eunhyuk comes and it is just a lot of people walking here and there. Just like that, Hannah finds herself a little more behind than before. She sees members of U-Kiss and MBLAQ not far from her and smiles when Lee Joon sees her. He waves her over and when she has made her way through a rookie group she bows politely and wishes them Happy New Year. She waves at the audience cheering on the side since they are standing on the side and when she hears Carolina talking in the microphone, U-Kiss’ Dongho notices her and points at her while mouthing why she is over there since the other members are in front of the camera. Hannah just points back at him and laughs.

Several artists start to perform on the side and Hannah walks with the crowd to the side. Among the club light and artists, Hannah just follows without knowing where her members are. She is walking next to MBLAQ and Joon next to her points at someone in the audience. Hannah looks and sees someone with a camera. Joon gives a smile and wave to the fan, so Hannah follows along.

Everyone heads backstage and Hannah finally sees Maria when their leader meets up with Mir to give him a New Year hug. Maria is probably hugging everyone she knows.

“Happy New Year,” Hannah smiles when Krystal comes in front of her. The two put their arms around each other, not saying anything else, but even after the hug Krystal keeps her hand by Hannah’s back and the two of them starts to head out from the big waiting room that is behind the stage.

“HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!” Maria and Key calls together for everyone and they gets many different answers from around the room. Hannah and Krystal keeps walking, pretending they didn’t hear it. Amber joins them too. Hannah walks by herself inside the dressing-room. She turns around when someone behind her greets her for the New Year before she happily greets the faces she knows in the room. Yong Hyun is the first to hug her and he hands her a glass of champagne that they had prepared.

“Oh, nice!” Emelia walks inside the room, eyeing the champagne. She then embraces Mi Young and then Hannah before getting a glass. Everyone arrives to the room and Super Junior’s Donghae also peeks in on his way.

“Happy New Year, Pieces!” he calls and raises his hand when everyone looks at him. He then bows at the managers before hurrying off as s’ calls for him.

Everyone in the room raises their glasses.

“With 2011 behind us, filled with… tears of all kinds,” Maria starts to say, “Let us welcome 2012 with bright smiles and laughter, and let us do great with everything we will face this year. Cheers, for the past and the future!”

“Cheers!” everyone says in chorus and it is repeated over and over again as glasses clank together between everyone. The champagne tastes horrible for Hannah – she has never liked champagne – but she still finishes the little she has. Happily everyone is going around mingling – beside from those performing – and Hannah happily throws her arms around Jonghyun when meeting him.

He quickly turns around with her in his arms and gives her a fast kiss that no one can get to notice. Hannah does greet the New Year with laughter and even when meeting FT Island a few minutes later she greets them happily too – including Honggi, even if it isn’t through a hug like she did with Minhwan.

Hannah smiles when she checks her cell phone, seeing a lot of texts. The one from Yoona is hilarious and Hannah replies to it in their normal weird state.

5P_HANNAH: Happy New Year!! Make the best of the new year and let’s have a lot of fun this year too ~~~

++ - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + -+ - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + -+ - + - ++~

The stages shines up as dancers appears from all kind of ways, half running and half dancing to the music playing. The audience around the place starts to jump by the beat of the remix. The dancers keeps running and dancing around that the audience doesn’t know where to look. The camera on the other hand knows where the artist will appear and they film how a stage raises from one of the main stages on the side, and five dolls are standing there.

The music changes and the dancers around the stages start to act confused. The music sounds more and more like [I Love You] and some dancers’ points towards the five dolls. The audience screams loudly when finally noticing them.

5 Pieces, dressed and standing like dolls, aren’t moving an inch when dancers come to their stage. They are standing in these typical doll positions, frozen. A dancer steps up behind each member and put their arms somehow on the member. For Hannah, the dancer puts his arms over Hannah’s in an awkward position for him, but on the camera it looks cool.

The music starts to get into a different remix and along with the rhythm, the dancers starts to move as well as 5 Pieces – as dolls being controlled. Hannah holds her microphone by .

*I- I giggle* she sings in the remix and with big acting eyes she looks to her left by her dancer’s control. The other members are also dancing, but they looks like they are slowly breaking free from the control. *Like never before* Hannah sings and looks in front of her where a camera zooms in on her. She gives a giggle at the same time as the music gives it and the girls starts to dance to [I Love You]

*I don’t know what to do

I blush like never before

I can’t, can’t control myself* Hannah sings and they go on with the performance like a normal performance of it.

At one part of the song, the dancers suddenly come around the girls as a remix starts again and the audience screams since they can’t see what’s going on. When the dancers parts from each other, they are back to acting confused as 5 Pieces have disappeared from the stage.

*Will you miss me? These words, I fell for you* a ballad singing Carolina comes walking up on the small stage, suddenly in a pair of jeans shorts and distressed knit-sweater in dark grey. She sings slowly and sweet for the ballad version of [One and Only].

*You are my dream, I am living for you* Maria comes up on a similar stage on the other side, singing in a high voice so she has to grimace. Also she sings in ballad, wearing clothes for their jeans concept from [One and Only]. In the middle stage, the other three members are standing in their jeans outfits. All five starts to sing the chorus as a ballad song while Maria and Carolina joins them on the middle stage.

They get quiet and the camera zooms in on Maria. *It’s me* she suddenly says and the song starts to play. The girls jumps around and takes their positions while Carolina sings her part and they performs [One and Only].

5 Pieces finishes their performance with a lot of scream from the audience. It is how they end 2011 and starts 2012.
