'BTOB in Malaysia 2018' Left Fans with Unforgettable Performances & Heartwarming Moments
Wednesday, December 19, 2018
As we're so
close to the end of 2018, we’re pretty sure that BTOB has made Melodies' year
even more special as they held their first fan-meeting in Malaysia on 16th of December (Sunday) at
MITEC’s Ballroom, Kuala Lumpur.
Although this was not the first time BTOB has ever visited
Malaysia, this fan meeting in particular was a very meaningful one for Melodies. As you might not know, it will be the last overseas promotions for BTOB members Minhyuk and Changsub before their military enlistment. Hence, the venue was filled with over hundreds of Melodies that travelled all the way from different cities and countries including Indonesia, Thailand, Vietnam, Taiwan and South Korea - uniting together with Malaysian Melodies to show their love and support for the boys for one last time.
It is obvious how excited Melodies are as most of them wore matching blue outfits to fit in the theme of the fan meeting - proudly showing off their cute banners
and unique fan light sticks that come in the form of saxophones. As they waited patiently for the BTOB, the lights suddenly
went off and fans started screaming as the VCR intro came up, the crowd
went wild as BTOB members finally made their grand entrance with their first song, Missing You.

While most k-pop groups started off their shows with
charismatic and fast-paced songs, BTOB surprisingly wow-ed the crowd with a
soft ballad as their first opening track. The
boys’ stage presence was incredible, their distinctive vocals were incredibly stable and smooth as they tried to hit the high
and difficult notes. Melodies sang their hearts out and fan chants echoed the whole venue, waving their light sticks energetically to their heart-wrenching performance.
The boys took a short pause to properly introduced themselves
to the fans. As BTOB is known for being a 7-member group, which consist of
leader Eunkwang, Changsub, Minhyuk, Hyunsik, Peniel, Ilhoon, and Sungjae.
However, this time there were only 6 members attended the show as Eunkwang is
already in the military.
“This is our first fan meeting in Malaysia without Eunkwang,
but he will always be forever in our hearts.” said Changsub.
BTOB continued to entertain the crowd with their songs including
Friend, It's Okay and Climax.

There were couples of segments including “Melody’s Wish” where BTOB would have to choose fans' wishes in the form of sticky notes that fans had written before the show. The first wish that came up was a dance battle between Sungjae and Changsub. Their sudden impromptu dancing left the fans and other members bursting into laughter, which made it difficult for the fans to choose the final winner! Who do you think won the dance battle? (Check out the video below to see their cool dance moves!)

Other members including Hyunsik did a smooth cover of Frank
Sinatra’s “Moonwalk” and another wish that was granted when Peniel asked the
fan to come up on stage to sing along with BTOB, her vocals impressed the
whole crowd, which made the members jokingly asked the fan to replace
Eunkwang’s position. (New member
perhaps?)
One of the highlights of the night was when BTOB members were very
enthusiastic about learning the Malay language! Hani, which was the MC for the
night – taught the boys on how to nail the famous Malay jargons and words, including “Lek
lu!” (Relax first!)”, “Cepat Sikit!” (Hurry!) and “Sayang awak!” (I love you)! Check out the video below to listen
to what the boys have to say!

The boys continued to perform other hit songs including Movie,
Blowin’ Up and Beautiful Pain!
Aside from their amazing vocals and cool rapping, the boys
are just natural entertainers and their personalities were more than enough to
make Melodies’ hearts full and happy. If there is another opportunity that will fall onto their laps, BTOB promised to return to Malaysia with complete 7 members.
Let's grab our tissue boxes and wait for their return Melodies!
We would like to express our gratitude to WE Entertainment for inviting us to BTOB Fanmeeting in Malaysia 2018.
