Day 1 Fan Account by @MShinju:
Taeyang was really energetic today in Fukuoka. He danced very passionately, using the elevations on stage (where the band members are standing).
In the Q&A corner, he answered the typical “if I don’t ask this I’ll die on my way home”-questions.
First was a girl in 3rd row left side.
Girl #1: How can I enter YG?
Taeyang: Enter YG? Do you want to become a singer? No..? You mean as an employee? You should ask the staff here!
The girl next to her explained.
Taeyang: Ah,you want to be a dancer!
Girl #1: (nods enthusiastically)
Taeyang: Well then (gesticulates towards stage)
The staff helped the girls on stage. YB asked their names and age. They were only 14 years old. Girl #2 was there as support for Girl #1.
Taeyang: The YG dancers are all looking right now, this is your chance! (towards side of stage) You’re all looking, right?
Taeyang: No need to be nervous. Imagine this (gestures to stage as whole) is your home. And there (towards audience) no one is looking.
Taeyang: Are you ready? (gestures for band to play a rhythm)
Girl #1 didn’t start dancing so Girl # danced instead. She was really good!! When Girl #1 still didn’t dance (face covered partly by her hands) YB started dancing too, so both Girl #2 and him danced to encourage her. But Girl #1 didn’t find the courage in the end so YB stopped the band and said with half a smile “not today hm?” He patted her shoulders
Taeyang: That’s okay, really. (girls leave stage) When I was a kid, I was really shy too. I mean I am still shy now..! (laugh) But when I was young, my parents would ask me to sing in front of others and I just couldn’t do it. I used to go to my room, close the door so nobody could see me and (starts dancing and humming a tune to himself) that’s how it was. I’m sure you can do it!!

The next question was from a woman on the right 10th row.
Q: How to become as muscular as you?
Taeyang: ..you’d die if you won’t ask me this? Well… I do sports everyday..? (laugh) next! Quite far, but 2nd floor! You with the HBA shirt. (Girl starts screaming) Yes, it’s you!
Q: How to become an amazing dancer like you?
Taeyang: I don’t think I’m an amazing dancer.
VIP:: eh..?
Taeyang: No seriously, in my opinion, I’m no great dancer. I just express my thoughts & feelings, music by movements. I’m sure you can all do it better than me. If I can do it, you can do it too!

The next VIP asked him if he’d show us the sushi dance. YB didn’t know right away what she meant, then when he got it he explained a bit.
Taeyang: I just made that dance up after watching a chef make sushi in a restaurant. It’s not really anything special but if you want to see it.. So he danced the sushi dance. He elaborated many detail moves and got a bit hurried in the end which made us laugh, probably intended.

Taeyang: For this sushi, mackerels were used. That’s the right word, mackerels..? They have to be eaten fresh, since they go bad quick.
Taeyang: Do you like mackerel sushi?
VIP:: We do!!
Taeyang: I love it. Next! Third floor, on the very right! You who just did this (imitates movement)

VIP:: I actually came all the way from Okinawa and..
Taeyang: Okinawa!! ..I’m very sorry.
VIP:: (laugh) you see, there are many fans in Okinawa. I wonder what can we do to get a concert in Okinawa..?
Taeyang: I see. You know I really love Okinawa. My favorite seawater pool is there and the food is so good. The people are also very friendly. I like Okinawa so much. To hold a concert there… please contact YGEX..!
YB noticed VIP’s bitter smiles (“as if YGEX would listen to us”) so he smiled helplessly and said “I don’t have much say in this as you know!”

The next question came from a fanboy.
Q: Do you have a girlfriend?
Taeyang: I’ve been asked this before. You see, I do. In Osaka.. and Tokyo.. Also in Kobe, and in Fukuoka. Okinawa! Nagoya! Singapore! Taiwan! In America & Europe! And of course at home in Seoul. It’s all of you!
YB actually laughed at himself at this.
Taeyang: I too do think it would be great to find a woman to give all my love to. Next time… I won’t mess up!! ..haha, just kidding!

Taeyang: Last question!
Q: What is your favorite song?
Taeyang: Aah~!! (points finger at questioner) ah~~~!! That’s a good one! …what would it be…
YB looked around and thought quite a bit.
VIP: started with artist suggestions such as Ne-Yo and then of course Michael Jackson.
Taeyang: Ah, Michael Jackson!
Q: Would you please also sing the song you pick as your favorite?
Taeyang: But I don’t know the lyrics..! (laugh)
Taeyang: Ah, there’s this one song I really like a lot! (towards band) Man in the Mirror!
The drummer started and then the guitar set in.
Taeyang: …is that Man in the Mirror?
He got into the song just a few seconds later and started singing. It was so so good! YB sang about half the song, it was clear he had not much clue about the lyrics so he basically made a part up and the rest was sounds. But it was amazing. His voice is simply amazing. It fits Michael Jackson’s songs so well. I was at the verge of crying when he stopped.
Taeyang: Well… I really don’t know the lyrics. Even if I look at the lyrics… (gesticulates) how do you call that? Lyrics… card?
Taeyang: Well, even if I look at that, I don’t understand what he’s singing. I guess nobody really does. That’s Michael Jackson’s charm!
