Hey guys, good morning from Tokyo. I'm here bright and early this morning for the Big Bang concert today
It doesn't start until later
But I'm here
Super early so that I can go line up in the goods line and get some stuff for Nicole
Actually, she's gonna be joining me later today, but she couldn't make it this morning, so I'm going to hopefully
Arrive there early enough that there will be some stuff left, and the line won't be too long. It opens in 15 minutes. It's
10:15 right now and it starts at 10:30
so
Hopefully it's not too bad. I feel like it's really early this time so they probably won't be too many people there
But you never know and especially with this being the last concert
There might be a big group so
Hoping for the best
All the book store's displaying some Big Bang stuff
Smart
Oh
They have the "Elle". I got my friend to send me one from Korea
What is this line for?
I don't think this is the goods
hmm
That's the line for the DVDs, okay, it's not for the goods
Still a chance that not too many people are here yet. This is where
We'll be lining up once it opens, but I'm assuming there's probably a group of people over here already waiting for it to open
Okay, yep, so just a few hundred
Thousand people already in line. Alright well, sorry Nicole
If I can't get you anything.
So this is like a fake for a jacket, Nicole is really considering getting it
But it's $200 so I'm gonna send her photos of it
They have an example when we get up there and she's gonna decide from there she actually wants it or not
I really like the design of the goods at this time the colors are really nice.
There's more! There's so much this time!
These fluffy sandals are all so cute
And these snow globes are nice, but they're really small.
The lines started moving- kinda of, not really, but it moved like...
Five meters maybe?
At least it's really warm today. I don't mind waiting outside
It feels like it's 15 degrees or something
And it's been a lot colder this week so it's pretty lucky
Almost at the front
It's been like two hours guys, so tired of waiting but
Almost there and there's only a couple things that's are sold out right now
So I think I will be able to buy everything Nicole wants
I'm in, I'm in! Woo, finally, that took forever
Pink, yes one of the pink.
Two of the fur charms
One of T.O.P's snow dome
I got everything guys, I did it. They weren't sold out of anything. Okay
I'm gonna go wait somewhere and Nicole should be showing up soon
And then she can open up her
Fur charms and see which color she got. I hope she got a GD and a T.O.P
Those are the two that she wants, so we will see
Nicole's with me now!
Wooo!
It's so lonely coming by myself
We're always together so, it's nice to have her here, okay
So I'm going to show you guys everything. So she got two of these really fluffy
They're like key holders. You can use them as a key holder, and this is a snow dome it's really cute
These are the free gift that you got if you spend six thousand yen
You get one of them, and she just bought enough stuff to get two of them, so that's cool and this year
They're hand warmers. They're the reusable ones and
This is the towel
It's really nice I really like the design
And a t-shirt which is
similar design to the towel
and then Nicole got me this as a Christmas present
It's a big fluffy strap that you can attach to a bag and what I'm gonna do is find a big
Just a really simple black bag on Amazon or something and I'm gonna use this as my carry-on
When I travel because I feel like this will be super comfy on
My shoulder and I'm always stuffing my carry-on with as much stuff as possible so it's always super heavy
So I thought this would be perfect for that so thank you Nicole!
What you gonna open first
[Nicole]: I think I'll open these first.
[Sharla]: Who do you want most?
[Nicole]: I want G-Dragon
[Sharla]: Yea
[Nicole]: that's the hardest one to get
I'd be happy with Seungri, or T.O.P, so pretty much any color, but yellow
[Nicole]: Oooo
[Sharla]: What? What? What?!
[Nicole]: My favorite color
[Sharla]: Blue?
[Nicole]: My favorite color
Sharla: Yayyy
Sharla: That's so awesome!
[Nicole]: Thanks, matches my hair!
[Sharla]: Looks good, yeah.
[Nicole]: Alright so I'm gonna open the next one
I hope it's the color I want
And of course it isn't
Sharla: Awe (laughs)
The one color I don't want
[Sharla]: But Daesung's really popular in Japan so...
[Nicole]: Hopefully I can trade [Sharla]: Yeah, hopefully you can find someone that wants it
[Nicole]: This isn't a bad yellow either though
[Sharla]: Yeah, it's bright. I like it
[Nicole]: I just want either G-Dragon or T.O.P and I saw some people trading T.O.P, so I think imma go try and trade.
Is that what I think that is?
Nicole: Blue! I got another blue! Sharla: Oh, nice! Yea. That's good
Nicole: Favorite color :)
[Sharla]: What? Is it GD?
[Nicole]: I think so!
[Sharla]: Is it GD?!
Nicole: IT'S GD!
Sharla: Oh my god!
Sharla: Nice, you did really well!
Nicole:Yayy
Sharla: You got three out of four of what you wanted, Nicole: True Sharla: and you just need to trade one. Nicole: Yes! Sharla: That's awesome!
Nicole: GDDD!!
Nicole just got her hair done at NALU, look at the color. It's so pretty
It fades from black to a really nice blue. Yoshi-san. Go to Yoshi-san at NALU. He's great
So if you get some of the goods, where you don't know which one you're gonna get, like the stuff that Nicole got
And you get one of the members that you don't like, or it's a double, you can come down to the outside part
After you purchase stuff, like and everybody's waiting here
And they're trading all their extras, so you can trade with somebody to get the ones you want, but nobody ever wants to trade g-dragon
Because he's the rarest so if you get a g-dragon you're really lucky.
Nicole was able to trade for the one she wanted
[Nicole]: So I got a T.O.P one now! Both: Awesome
I needed a break from the cold so we're
Waiting in line for Saizeriya right now
It felt like decently warm this morning, but after standing out there for two hours. My hands are pretty frozen
My nose is very red
We've got a little bit longer before the concert starts, so gonna kill some time in here and keep warm. I've really been craving pasta
When we're in Korea we just ate rice every day
Every meal and I need some pasta, so I'm gonna get my my usual
Pepperoncino
It's just like garlic and chilies. It's really simple.
We're back in the goods line, Nicole wanted the goods line experience
We're lining up again. It's obviously not as bad now because the concerts gonna start soon. The line's a lot shorter
What are you getting? [Nicole]: I'm gonna get more of the charms. Hopefully I can get all five. [Sharla]: Yeah, you just really wanted G-Dragon
At least and I think I'm gonna get one of the charms
I didn't buy anything, but I think I want to get at least one souvenir from
This last concert, possibly the last one for a very, very long time
So I'm gonna get one of the charms. They're...
900 yen, which isn't too bad, cheaper than most of the stuff that is on sale here
And I'm gonna hope for GD. If not GD I kinda want Seungri because it's blue
and it's pretty
Sharla: So... Nicole: Taeyang's nice too
Both: The red.
Sharla: Yeah, red wouldn't be bad
We'll see, hopefully I'm lucky.
They're all sold out of the fluffy keychains. So now we're stuck in line. We don't have a way out
We've gatta find a way out!
It's time for our tradition of trying to win things at the UFO catcher
Every time there's a Big Bang concert here, also for GD's concert
They change lots of the UFO catchers to Big Bang goods, so
Maybe we can get something this time
[Nicole]: I've got two so far [Sharla]: Nicole always does really well, but she also spends lots of money
Sharla: NO!
[Nicole]: Maybe you'll get Taeyang
Sharla: I don't want Taeyang!
Sharla: These are cute
Sharla: Awe, pencil case
Sharla: No more GD
Both: No GD or T.O.P.!
Bento boxes, there's still a T.O.P one left
This is neat, you have to
Stop the light when it's right by an arm, and then that one will fall down
Nicole did very well, how much did you spend?
[Nicole]: Only 1700 yen
[Sharla]: Good job.
So we're just heading inside the venue now
Cause it's gonna start in about an hour, but look at how many people are still waiting for goods. It's never been this crazy
I guess because it's the last concert
Alright, we're going in guys. The concert starts in about an hour
We will see you afterwards because we're not allowed to film inside, unfortunately, that's a Japan thing
But we'll be back after the concert to let you know how it was
Byeee
Hey guys, it's the next morning. I was gonna film this last night as soon as I got back from the concert
But I got a killer migraine on the way home, and I just went straight to bed
That's why this video is late. So sorry about that
I promise I will do my best to stick to my Vlogmas schedule, but the concert was really great
It was so sad though because it's so
Weird to think that that's the last one
I'm gonna see for at least another two years.
So in Korea, men have to go to do army service
I think they lessen the amount of time that it is but it's
Approximately two years- it might be like a year and a half or a year and three quarters now
But they have to do army service even if you're a famous singer or an actor
it doesn't matter, everybody goes to do army service so
So next year a few of the members of BIGBANG will be going into the army and that's why this is the last
Concert for a while.
So our seats were actually quite decent, we were in the arena area which is on the ground
In front of the stage, so Tokyo Dome is set up so that there's an arena area by the stage
Which is the best area you're always really happy if you get arena seats, and then there's a row of seating
and then there's a balcony and then there's another row of seating that's like really high up
and the seating is quite far away. If you get those seat, you can't really see them on the stage
You kind of just have to watch the screen where it's showing like the live recording of what they're doing because you can't see them
They're so tiny and far away, but our seats were decently close so that we could see them when they were on the stage
But actually the stage for this concert moved
So it would come all the way down the middle
Of the arena area and it actually went over some people which was really neat
It would have been so cool to have those seats
But we were in an area that when the stage moved they were really close to us. They were, I would say maybe
10 meters away?
10-15 meters, so they got pretty close, which was really neat because we weren't expecting that. GD was so funny
He said. "I actually didn't know there was a concert today
We had like a fan meet earlier, and then I thought that was it and then here
I am on stage, I didn't expect this to be happening."
He just looks so tired
He thought that he had the rest of the day off, then they're like "No the concert is today."
I think he thought it was tomorrow
That was really funny. At the end of the concert
They said we won't be able to meet for another few years, but please wait for us
And we'll come back as five members when we're back, so that's exciting. I can't wait to see them with T.O.P again
It's so weird when he's not there. During the last song, they sang Last Dance as their last song and
They showed like a video of T.O.P during T.O.P's part and that was really cute. We had a really great time
It's sad to think that that's the last time
I'm going to be going to Tokyo Dome with Nicole to see a concert most likely, but when they come back
hopefully I'll still be in Korea and I'll be able to invite her over to Korea to see a concert with me there and that'll
be fun. New experiences. Alright so last video, I opened a g-dragon poster from one of my viewers
Charlotte and
She commented and said that yes, there is another package
that explains that one so I went through my
Mail and I found another box from Charlotte, so I'm gonna be opening this. So sorry that I opened the other box first
I didn't notice this one in there
What is this?
What?! Is the heart... what it's a Heartbreaker CD? Oh my god
No way, I don't have this
That is so
generous of you
G-dragon first solo album, Heartbreaker. This is actually the only solo album of his that I don't have
Awee
Oh awesome she used to live in China and Taiwan
Awe, you're such a sweetie. Thank you so much Charlotte
I will treasure this. Oh before I forget I need to say a really big
thank you to whoever has been captioning my Vlogmas videos in English. It doesn't display a name
So I have no idea who you are, but thank you so much because I know how much work that is
And I really really appreciate it because it makes my videos available to my viewers that are hard of hearing
So that is so sweet of you. Thank you so much and
another big shout out to
Pablo, if any of you are using Spanish subtitles at the moment
Or you ever have in the past, that is all thanks to Pablo because he subtitles nearly every single video
I put out in Spanish, and I can't explain to you
How much work that is, that is hours of time that he volunteers to do that so. Thank You Pablo. You are so sweet
Please give a big THANK YOU to him in the comments if you've ever used the Spanish subtitles. And one last thing before I go
My acne skincare box from Wishtrend. I'll link the video down below. If you haven't seen that yet
Yeah, I believe there's only one day left. It's on sale for one more day
so if you're thinking about getting that do that now, I'll put the sale link down below too.
Bye guys. See you tomorrow!
