[COVER] SECRET & B.A.P 1st Singapore Fan Meeting

23rd March 2012 – SECRET & B.A.P 1st Singapore Fan Meeting

Recently in town to hold a fan meeting at IMM Garden Plaza, 4-member Korean girl group SECRET, along with their labelmates/juniors B.A.P, greeted the fans enthusiastically for the first time in Singapore. Having witnessed the entire fan meet, we got to say that it was a blast for fans who were present at the venue, or at least it was for us. Besides the usual games and fan interactions on stage, we were pretty much impressed with the stage performances by both groups.

Decked in bright pink suits and later changed into matching black outfits, B.A.P was the first to kick-start the fan meeting that evening. B.A.P stands for ‘Best Absolute Perfect’ and consists of 6 members namely Bang Yong Guk, Yoo Young Jae, Jung Daehyun, Kim Himchan, Moon Jung Up, and Zelo (Choi Jun Hong). Though the group only made their debut into the K-pop scene in January this year, the support they received from fans is a definite one. Numerous placards and fanboards for B.A.P were spotted in the crowd, but that’s not all – the fanchants for the group were really loud and clear too! Putting up a series of performances such as Secret Love, Unbreakable, and Warrior, the boys certainly deserve the cheers and applause earned from the audience.

One of the highlights that night was a birthday celebration for B.A.P’s leader Yong Guk, whose birthday happened to be around the corner. He was presented with a cake on stage after a surprise birthday song sung by the fans in Korean and English.

Shortly after B.A.P retreated backstage, the fan meeting continued with SECRET (Song Jieun, Han Sunhwa, Jeon Hyosung, Zinger) bringing across performances of their hit tracks, including Magic, Madonna, Shy Boy, Starlight Moonlight, and Love is Move. The fanchants throughout their performances were as amazing and loud too!

On top of the game segment, a charity auction bidding also took place in between the show as an effort to raise funds for the Association For Persons With Special Needs (APSN). The first set of items which consists of SECRET’s autographed lomo camera and 2 shirts was bidded off at S$800, while the second set (same items) was eventually auctioned off at a bid of S$900, amounting to a total sum of S$1,700 with all proceeds donated to the charity.

An autograph session was held right at the end which concluded the fan meeting where the girls were seen on all smiles, providing much fan service before they left the stage.
