Inspiring, amazing and emotional

As much as I love dramas and however much they changed my life, for me, Take 1 has been a fresh breathe of air. I didn't expect it to be as emotional as it was. If I never heard of an artist on Take 1, consider me a fan of them, now.

I have loved and cried every single episode and felt both encouraged and inspired, just like Lena Park hoped for. Watching this has been a gift.

Lena Park is an amazing singer and her story is very relatable. I'm glad she followed her dreams and I know how scary it must've been for her, especially when her parents told her to come home in the early days. However, she came out on top and made her parents proud with a very unique performance in the heart of Seoul.

I just loved, like loved every single performance. From Toy's performance, reading all their letters, Somi's playing of melodica, Du-na's story, to the crowd's sigh of relief when "Is it Still Beautiful?" starts to play. He definitely fooled me, I thought he was going to sing at first, I thought "He has to!", but then he didn't, but at last he surprised me! I'm so glad he decided to sing, and even better to sing with whole crowd!!

Jo sumi's performance was really beautiful. She has an amazing voice and it's no surprise she's one of the best singers in the world. Very creative performance and they definitely made it work. It was really funny watching her doll-like performance and quite commendable as I can't imagine how she managed to sing while being that tense. Just goes to show how skillful of a singer and performer she is! Watching the parents, children and fellow, aspiring singers watching the performance was inspiring and heartwarming to see.

I am quite familiar with AKMU, as I'm a big YG stan especially being a BLINK, it's automatic to know all the other artists within the company. Extremely talented siblings and I just love the relationship between Su-hyun and Chan-hyuk. Their bickering is too cute and funny that I always laugh whenever they argue, but there wasn't too much of it here, but still it's always a treat to see how professional they are as well. I got to know AKMU a lot and I have become a fan if I wasn't already. I'm sure if Chan-hyuk had more time he would've come up with an even more insane of an idea, that's how ambitious he is, and he made it work in Take 1, along with his sister, Su-hyun. I love both of them, and NAKKA's an amazing song – go listen to it. That performance was really mind-blowing, everything was perfect, they truly nailed it! That Take 1 was made for Nakka.

I cried a lot during Take 1, but I must say Yim Jae-beoms comeback made me tearful. Even as I'm writing this I'm reminiscing about his performance on the rooftop and how emotional it was. I never knew who he was, but I'm very happy that he is back, at least doing none other than Take 1 performance, respect. I can't imagine what he was going through with such a loss. I can definitely understand his depression throughout the years, but I just want to let him know that he's doing great and that he is amazing. He has inspired so many and it shows, and I hope the best for him and his daughter.

Rain's performance was really cool, I loved it and what better song to pick than Rainism, right? I was hoping he was going to pick Rainism, it's such a timeless song, just gets better the more you listen to it. Now, imagine a huge performance like this for Rainism. Well... you' don't need to, because Rain made it happen! Rain is a role-model and in Take 1 it shows how hardworking he is. My favourite quote from his performance was: "Treat the practice like the real thing, and the real thing like practice!" I'm also glad he decided to do one more song, and I through it I have gotten to know Rain more and I'm definitely a fan of his, if wasn't already.

Loved Mamamoo's stage as well. I was worried because of the rain, but the worry was gone as soon as I saw their fans waiting for them, truly a loyal fanbase, always cheering for them. I haven't read upon Mamamoo and how they came to be, even though I do listen to their songs. However, Take 1 showed me their humble beginnings and I'm glad I listen to their songs as they are very talented and hardworking. Love how enthusiastic their fans are, it was funny and lovely seeing them so immersed in the concert. That medley sounds so good, as well. Also, their stage presence is amazing. I'm glad they did that little encore at then end!!

I hope Netflix decides to do a second season.

La importancia de la música

Amé la idea de este reality en el que diferentes músicos coreanos ya famosos deben hacer un show escogiendo una sola canción. En verdad fue hermoso el hecho de que eligieron artistas de diferentes géneros, estilos, edades, desde solistas hasta grupos, encontrarás cantantes de k-pop, melódico, ópera... Todo fue increíble, ver las lluvias de ideas, cómo cada uno abordada de diferente forma el show que harían y quiénes estarían invitados a verlo. Algunos fueron más minimalistas, otros más ambiciosos, pero todos han brindado un momento musical fascinante. Amaría ver este formato en todo el mundo, incluso otra temporada con otros artistas.

Rain

Eu assisti por causa do Rain e particulamente não conhecia os outros apresentados.
A produção sem duvida estava impecavel e toda a aorganização e ver o Rain tão emocionado para realiezar a tarefa do Take, tornou tudo fantastico.
É muito bom quando um drama , filme ou ate programa de variedade mostra em detalhes a essencia dos nosssos idolos, e realementede arrepeiar.
A apresentação dos artista de varias bases diferentes foi o que tornou esse show de variedade tão intenso e empogante.
A netflix arrazou nos efeitos especiais e em todos os astroa apresentados. Assistam voces iram gostar.
