RUNNINGMAN IN INDONESIA

Hello! 
I'm back with Korean things update!
I'm very excited with this update! This month, Running Man team along with JS Foundation came to Indonesia for Asian Dream Cup 2014. How cool was that?? I'm always a fans of Park Jisung since small, since my Dad always watching him since Park Jisung got into Manchester United, I guess. This event was a great excitement and experience for me! So, if you're interested, keep on reading! :) 


JS Foundation X Running Man once again teamed up to participate in Asian Dream Cup. This time, Indonesia is the chosen country to be the venue for this annual event. I'm not a big fan of soccer, but Running Man and Park Jisung are my reason to watch this event. Additionally, the guests that come to participate such as Minho of SHINee, EXO, etc are my secondary motivation watch it. This event took place in Gelora Bung Karno (GBK), Jakarta's iconic stadium. It was OLD, but it's still the biggest and the most appropriate stadium in the entire city. The event was held on June 2, 2014 started on 6PM with LIVE broadcasting by RCTI. It was the match of Jisung & Friends versus Indonesia's All Star

I bought Class IIA tickets online from kiostix.com. It was super convenient, because I don't need to exchange my tickets. But, the tax was incredibly expensive for a ticket! It cost me 56.000 IDR of tax from original ticket price 350.000 IDR. Most people said it was too expensive for a soccer match, but I think it was way much cheaper than watching concert in GBK.

The away team, which are Running Man arrived in Indonesia on the 1st of June. I decided to go to the Airport, but damn! I did not get to see them AT ALL. I've wasted 5 hours of my Sunday by standing and waiting them. The problem was Garuda Indonesia delayed their landing schedule at that time. Idk why Garuda could delay, but damn it happened and I had to wait much longer. Most of the fans thought they would come at 3.30 PM, but it was delayed until 4.50 PM. Because of the delay, the RM members were hurried by time to get to GBK for press-con on time, so, they came out from other gate, which is very disappointing the fans. We were expecting that the VJs would shoot us, like what they did in Thailand or Hongkong. It break our heart. :( Please to the event organizer, you don't know what would happened with airlines' schedule, so please make a longer spare time. 

The event was held on Monday. LIKE FREAKING MONDAY, which is the first day of the week. The traffic were also unfriendly in Jakarta, especially. I don't know why it was held on Monday, but many people had to sacrifice their time (jobs or attending school) for lining. Thankfully, my class finished at 09.35 PM, so I have much time to prepare for the match. I used taxi to went there with my best friend and her cousin also with my senior. And I arrived at 4PM, which was stated that the gate opened at 4PM. As you might know, INDONESIA'S SYSTEM WAS SUPER AWFUL! They took a long time to let us in, even though they only ripping our tickets without seeing it's fake or real! WTF MAN! Please to all Indonesia's Event Organizer/Promoter, fix your system! And to other Indonesians, PLEASE LEARN HOW TO QUEUE! My section was the worst line ever! Most of the section had lined quite good, but mine was SO HORRIBLE! BOO!!

Fast forward to the event or at least inside the stadium. OH NO! GBK has a serious problem! PLEASE FIX THE STADIUM! I BEG YOU! The platform leak! That day it wasn't raining, but water keep on dropping and make the bench dirty and wet! it was such an IUHH moment. I could not enjoy the whole event, because I'm very concerned with the water. DAMN YOU LEAKING WATER! :S Before the opening ceremony, we could see the members practicing, stretching, trying the field, warm-up, etc. It means the event are going to start. I took the advantage to took the pictures since the movement were not much, so I could take a still shots and also the lighting were still good, since it were not dark yet. YEAY! So happy! Thankfully, I brought my camera, since using phone camera could not zoom like what camera does. Here's some photos of them:







 
The match went well. No injuries happened. All Running Man members participated. Very well done! Even though Indonesia wins over JS Foundation, it makes an impressive show. Can't wait for the edited episode came out! KYAAA~~! 
Fun Fact:
1. Song Jihyo wore the soccer team t-shirt along with the soccer shoes. At warming up session, Song Jihyo tries to make a goal, and she made it! So COOL! All of us wanted Song Jihyo to participate also.
2. Park Jisung was exchanged by Ji Sukjin. So, at that time, Jisung & Friends has no captain on the field. LOL. Ji Sukjin make jokes with Indonesian keeper, when Jisung & Friends tried to make goal. 
3. The only goal made from Jisung & Friends was Gary's "twin".
4. Gwangsoo made a commotion. He ran the stadium to ask the fans to cheer the team. The stadium was not small, so yeah, it was hell tiring! HAHA. He is so funny! TYPICAL GWANGSOO! XD 
5. Indonesian singer, Judika, performed on the field. LOL. It's weird and the sound system was so failed.
6. Unexpected guest, Crayon Pop, (really) performed for the supporters. COOL but FUNNY!

Here's some photo that I took. Sorry, if there is no Jongkook and Jaesuk's photo, since my camera battery died when they play.  






That's all! Can't wait to see the episode! 
Bye guys!
