A short interview with BLOCK B was held on the stage. They were asked about how they feel about the fans in Malaysia. JaeHyo answered that they just reached Malaysia a day ago and they didn’t expect to have so many fans came to support them. They were questioned regarding current fashion in Korea and also their own fashion style too.
BLOCK B continued with “Wanna Be” from their debut album <Do U Wanna B?>. This was the first time BLOCK B showing off their dance skills to fellow fans in Malaysia. Everyone was hyped up together with the fast beat song, enjoying the Hip-Hop style of BLOCK B.
Next, BLOCK B performed their hit song “Nanrina” which is the title song of their latest album <Welcome to The Block>. They went to the backstage and got on stage again handsomely with white furry coat. Fans went wild when the boys performing the “gorilla dance” which was the highlight of this song.
Fans shouted for encore as BLOCK B got off stage after the previous performance. Surprisingly, BLOCK B did an encore for everyone in the hall. The last song was “Let’s Get Retarded” by Black Eyed Peas. Fans rushed to the front, hoping to get a clearer view in seeing the boys performing on stage. U-Kwon and P.O even walked to the front of the stage and sang to the fans.
