Song after song, the girls are getting more and more worn out, but their energy is still on the top. The concert is going extremely well. the audience had cheered a lot, many looked rather impressed, when 5 Pieces performed as a band, showing off their instrument talent and that. Trax’s Jungmo had featured in Emelia’s rock solo.

After the video {Audition: Our Big Journey}, 5 Pieces performs DBSK’s [Rising Sun]. Like always when performing that song, the girls puts their all in the dancing since they are lip-synching. They have some difficulties to dance in the long coats too, since the rough choreography makes the coats move around a lot of it happens that their hands entangle in the fabric. It goes pretty well for Hannah; she only entangles her thumb in her coat once when she is doing her solo part of the song, but it’s no big deal as it doesn’t ruin her performance.

The concert has gone so great so far. Their legs had just started to get really tired when the segment they perform as a band come, so they all had gotten to rest their legs for those songs. Which is good because they all starts to sweat at this song.

Just as they think they are doing so well, something happens. Emelia, who just like her members have been dancing with all her might to be able to do a pretty decent cover of DBSK’s song, falls on the stage. She falls straight down on her knees, and none of the others understands what’s going on. They have to keep performing since the song isn’t over, and Hannah – who is behind Emelia – sees her stand up. Their eyes meet for a second and Hannah understands that she has gotten hurt. Emelia limps off the stage. Hannah almost forgets the choreography, because what just happened seems to happen in slow motion, and she can’t understand it. But most of the song had passed when it happened, so the group does the ending.

The moment the song ends and Christina Aguilera’s [Can’t Hold Us Down] will start, Hannah walks to the side of the stage. She picks up her microphone on the way and when she comes to the side of the stage she asks what happened.

“EM placed her foot wrong or something, she is checking it now,” the staff tells her. “Go on with the concert.”

Hannah nods, and in the little ear piece in her ear she can hear a staff tell the members on the stage that Emelia won’t perform this song, so the members have to fill in her parts if they can. The other members were smart and knew they would be told through the ear piece, so they have already followed the schedule by walking out from the main stage for the song. Hannah takes off her coat and follows them out.

Emelia doesn’t have many parts in the cover of Christina Aguilera’s song, but she has a rap in it and her voice is also in the background a lot. During the first chorus, Hannah passes by Carolina. Carolina puts her hand by Hannah’s waist when they are supposed to walk by each other, and while Hannah sings; Carolina whispers to her to ask if Hannah can take the rap – since Hannah is the only one who probably knows most Christina Aguilera songs. Hannah nods and Carolina says she will take Hannah’s part that is with Julia after the rap, and Hannah nods again.

The second chorus comes after that Hannah and Maria has jumped up and down in each other’s arms when singing the part. Hannah is waving at every single chorus when they sing *so lift your hands high and wave ‘em proud* and she is confidently waving to the audience and pointing at the girls she sees. Hannah doesn’t sing the ending of this chorus and she moves along with the beat to the song. With a deep breathe she starts;

*Here’s something I just can’t understand. If the guy have three girls then he’s the man. He can even give her some head, or yeah her off. But if a girl do the same, she’s a…* instead of singing “w*ore”, Hannah puts her hands out as if she can’t understand. She acts cool like she thinks fits for the lyrics.

*But the tables about to turn, I bet my fame on it. Cats take my ides, and put their name on it. It’s alright though, you can’t hold me down. I got to keep on moving!* Here, Hannah gets a little out of breathe but she quickly keeps on with the part.

Hannah smiles when she has done that part, waiting for her next turn. She is in love in this song, moving her hand with the audience and not thinking about that she keeps moving her hips back and forth

[CHORUS, ALL] *This is for my girls all around the world

Who have come across a man that don’t respect your worth

Thinkin’ all women should be seen not heard

[Hannah] So what do we do girls!

[ALL] Shout louder! ([Maria] shout louder!)

Hannah shouts with all her might her part that she usually does with Emelia, and she is followed by not just her own members screaming ‘shout louder’, but several in the audience sings it too. The chorus is repeated one last time, and Hannah is jumping while giving her all in it. When the ending music is playing, the girls are coolly walking over towards the main stage, Carolina saying ‘yeah, can’t hold us down’ and ‘5 Pieces, we’re gonna show them’.

Next up is a talk. Hannah looks after Maria who goes to the side of the stage to look how it is for Emelia while the other members drinks some water or pats away the sweat from their necks and faces, standing on the main stage.

“What did you think of the performances?” Hannah asks, almost dropping the microphone when changing hand on the bottle of water and microphone in her hands.

She gives a smile and looks behind her when the others are starting to talk in mouth on each other and the audience screams when Emelia comes up on the stage, just simply limping now. Maria comes too. The members are asking her how she is feeling, showing they cares in front of the audience and Emelia explains to the fans that she was careless when dancing so she hurt her leg a little – but she will be able to finish the performance. Even the members’ cheers when knowing they will finish it together.

“I heard from backstage how the cry-baby took my rap,” Emelia says and Hannah looks surprised.

“I’m not a cry-baby!”

“Cry-baby,” Emelia tells her in a flirty way and smiles when the audience screams. “Did she do my part well?”

The audience answers and Hannah smiles before she cutely asking “did I do well?” that makes even her laugh at how embarrassing it is. She apologizes and pouts cutely when Julia puts her hands on Hannah’s cheeks. Again they talk a little, Hannah correcting Carolina’s Japanese and Maria sits down on the stage when admitting she got tired after performing. She asks the audience if it is okay for her to sit down while they are talking, so she can perform greatly for the next songs – of course no one has anything against it.

While talking, Carolina suddenly walks out from the main stage they are standing on to one of the long stages in front of them. Julia calls her name while Maria uses a weird voice to ask where she is going. Carolina gives a cute jump before leaning towards some fans that quickly tries to lean closer to her and Carolina laughs before she goes to lean on the other side where fans gets crazy too. The members all look after her as if she is weird.

“She is not one of us,” Emelia says and puts her arm around Julia who nods in agreement. “Ya, what are you doing?”

“Did you know,” Carolina starts to say and turns around to look at her members. “When I lean this way-” she puts her arm out and leans to the right, “- the people here all comes towards me like a wave.”

“That’s not interesting,” Maria sighs while Hannah just gives a laugh.

“And when I lean this way, the people here comes towards me like a wave,” Carolina says when leaning the other way.

“Definitely not one of us,” Julia agrees with Emelia.

“Am I fun?” Carolina asks the fans on her left.

“No,” the members answer in their microphones so you can’t hear the audiences’ answer.

“They love me,” Carolina is still in her own world and she does a heart for the audience. The other members tell her to come back, but Carolina can’t seem to hear. Maria gives a shout, still sitting down, and she points at Carolina who had jumped at the shout.

“Back here; now,” Maria orders.

“Ay, ay, Captain,” Carolina mutters and she starts to come back.

The concert ends successfully and the girls heads out to celebrate the successful concert. Emelia’s leg injury isn’t serious, so even she manages to finish the concert well. She is still limping a little once in a while, but she is laughing and having fun with the others. When everyone is gathered around the tables to celebrate after, Maria stands up with her glass and she does a cheer loud enough for everyone to hear and she then tells Hannah to translate for the Japanese staff.

Everyone has fun celebrating, and even if members in 5 Pieces drink alcohol, they don’t drink so they get drunk. Hannah drinks Coca Cola, liking the taste better than alcohol. Maria drinks alcohol, just because she hasn’t done that in Japan before. After the cheer, everyone hits their glasses together and screams ‘kanpai’, which is ‘cheers’ in Japanese.

But they don’t stay out for long, since 5 Pieces has to return to Korea early in the morning. The girls can’t go to sleep, and at the hotel where they are supposed to sleep in two different hotel rooms, all of them gather in one room to talk and they maybe are a little too loud since their manager knocks on the door around half past two in the morning. The girls are still giggling when telling each other to be quiet while Julia goes to open the door, and she smiles sweetly to the manager who is standing in his pyjamas.

“You are leaving at six, which is in less than four hours,” their manager tells Julia as if she didn’t know. “Shouldn’t you ladies be asleep now?”

“We are sleeping!” Carolina laughs inside the hotel room. “Our minds are sleeping but our bodies just won’t be still!”

They laugh inside the room and Emelia throws a pillow at Carolina.

Of course they can’t fall asleep now, but some hours later when they are on the plane, Maria is sleeping with wide open – looking exhausted – and Carolina is hugging Julia’s arm while the two of them are sleeping too. Hannah, who is sitting next to Maria, is stuck under the leader’s legs that have their own control when Maria is sleeping, is quietly writing on the laptop and Emelia is listening to music. Emelia maybe looks to be asleep, but she looks around once in a while, so she isn’t asleep. The short flight comes to an end and in the van going from Incheon airport to Music Core, the three girls that slept in the plane are sleeping again.

The girls have their make-up and hair prepared, changing into their stage outfits and it’s not hard to see that they are tired from yesterday. They are quiet compared to usual and Maria rests a lot. Even when MBLAQ’s Mir and Joon comes over, Maria tiredly puts her hand over Mir’s mouth for him to be quiet and she then rests her head on his shoulder. Hannah notices that, but she doesn’t think anyone else really thinks about it, because that is how Maria is.

“Then how did it go?” Joon asks, talking about the concert, and he then looks at Emelia. “How’s your leg?”

“I got some painkillers, so it’s okay for now,” Emelia answers. Hannah and Julia glances at each other. Her leg had just hurt during the concert and yesterday, but today it was no problem; she is making it a bigger deal than what it is.

“You are even compared to DBSK,” Mir laughs. Maria hits his arm, telling him to be quiet, and Mir does get quiet. He is smiling like a fool because Maria is using him as a pillow – that, you can say, is his punishment for sitting down next to her on his own.

“That’s just because we look up to them,” Carolina smiles. “But I still love it … ‘the female DBSK impresses Japan with their goddess-’”

“No one said that,” Emelia interrupts her. Carolina grimaces at her, muttering that someone should, and her muttering makes the others laugh.

These clips are revealed on 5 Pieces official YouTube/Facebook pages, and they are receiving a lot of attention as it seems to be revealing the original 5 Pieces that fans love so much.

5 Pieces is currently in Japan, and their very first concert in Osaka ended not long ago. 5 Pieces very own manager who is in charge of uploading and filming these ‘Real 5 Pieces’ clips, uploaded a new clip that has made fans laugh off their chairs. The clip is from backstage of the Osaka concert and it reveals how the girls are warming up before the concert and how they warm up their shouts. According to Julia in the video, the girls are shouting without reason backstage to release their excitement to get up on the stage. The members of f(x) also appear in the clip, as they performed with 5 Pieces for the concert. The sisterhood between them is seen by their cute behaviour.

For sensitive listeners of the clip, you should turn down the volume a little as it is a lot of noise and screams in it. But for fans that are just as crazy as 5 Pieces; you will probably laugh and make out a lot of noise, because nothing makes sense in this clip.

HEADLINE 11TH: HANNAH’S LUXURIOUS BODY GRABS ATTENTION AT OSAKA CONCERT

5 Pieces had their first Osaka Concert in Japan yesterday, and it has been getting a lot of attention. One of the many things that are getting a lot of attention is the youngest member’s body, which now has been mentioned as ‘luxurious’.

Hannah, who back in 2009-2010 had activities in Japan as an actress, seems like she made a lot of fans in the audience get nosebleed. Hannah first performed her solo song [Burning], which her outfit was a slashed t-shirt that revealed her figure. But her other solo performance where she did a cover of Beyonce’s [Crazy In Love] is what is getting the most attention. Hannah is already known for having curves, and her weight loss since some years back is rather surprising. No had could’ve known her body had gotten this fit as it is revealed in her solo performance. During the song, Hannah’s tank top glides up a little and reveals a fit stomach. Her S-line is seen from both the front and the side, and since the performance is y, several fans in the audience couldn’t hide how impressed and surprised they were over Hannah’s transformation.

Pictures from the concert have started to go around on the internet, and pictures of Hannah with her luxurious body from head to toe are grabbing most attention. While some fans are worried she has gotten smaller, they can’t hide how impressed they are when comparing pictures from Hannah three years ago to now. Several fans even mentions that it’s impossible to see the traces of Hannah’s oversized weight now, that even if she isn’t super skinny her body is still to die for.

Are you curious to know how Hannah obtained such a stunning body? She has revealed before that it is all about exercising, since diets never work for her. Hannah frequently goes to the gym and with all the dancing, no wonders she has gotten such a body.

HEADLINE 11TH: 5 PIECES IMPRESSES WITH FLAWLESS CONCERT AND JAPANESE SKILLS

The popular girl-group 5 Pieces who until recently have mostly had activities in Korea, had their first concert in Osaka yesterday. 5 Pieces have created a craze after craze for every comeback in Korea and wherever they go now there are fans screaming their names. The group has gotten a lot of attention from Japan, and last year they released their debut single in Japan.

After starting the first concert tour ‘Moon Child’ in Seoul back in January, 5 Pieces made their second stop for the tour in Osaka, Japan, drawing more than 14,000 excited fans. Even during the concert, fans that didn’t have tickets were outside the concert. Everyone wanted to see the charismatic 5 Pieces.

5 Pieces with the image of being a tough girl group revealed a lot of different sides of themselves at the concert. With the concept as pirates for the concert, fans were stunned by the cool intro. 5 Pieces performed their strengthening songs such as [Original] and [Moon Child] at the beginning of the concert, and though the songs were in Korean, the Japanese fans sang along well. Beside from the great performances that all stood out, 5 Pieces impressed fans by talking in Japanese. At the press-conference before the concert, 5 Pieces revealed that they have practiced a lot to be able to communicate with their fans, and at the concert it was definitely shown as the members not just encouraged their fans to jump and follow the songs but also between the songs talked in Japanese. Member Hannah is already known for her great Japanese skills, but member Emelia impressed with her skills as well.

The other members made the fans laugh when commenting in Japanese and the typical behaviour of 5 Pieces weren’t changed even if they couldn’t communicate fluently.

5 Pieces impressed a lot with the concert, fans saying afterwards that from beginning to end they couldn’t stop being excited. Every single song made the audience excited, and it seems like 5 Pieces are making a big wave with their tour. Their next stop is Shanghai, and the fans over there are all waiting impatiently for the concert that is at the beginning of next month. Anyone who will go to the concerts are seen as lucky, and fans around the world are calling out for SM Entertainment to let 5 Pieces have more concerts.
