“Wah, so many chiobu in the audience!” was how Korean pop group Pentagon’s Hongseok greeted fans at the final concert of their Prism tour last night (Nov 2) at The Star Theatre.
Unlike most other Korean pop concerts, Pentagon’s fans — known as Universe — found themselves treated to a hilarious show conducted largely in Singlish. Random lahs and lehs were peppered throughout the banter-filled breaks as the members jibed with one another, evoking peals of laughter from the audience.
Even the banners held up by fans said: “Love you very much lah!”
Their comedic attempts at Singlish can be attributed mostly to Hongseok, who spent almost a decade growing up and studying in Singapore.
In fact, he even invited his old schoolmates from Hwa Chong International School to attend the concert, though he sheepishly trailed off saying: “I hope they already forgot my name.”
