In just a few hours after releasing their latest single "midnight", the boys of B2ST have achieved an instant ‘all-kill’ with their newest release as they have topped all the major charts.
An all-kill refers to topping all of the major music charts in Korea simultaneously, and B2ST fulfilled that requirement by achieving the #1 position on the Bugs, Melon, Soribada, Daum, Mnet, Cyworld,Olleh, and Naver real-time music charts.
B2ST’s Yoseob recently tweeted a message of reassurance to his fans in Malaysia after a recent small tripping incident at the Kuala Lumpur Airport .
On July 24th, B2ST successfully performed at the ‘MTV World Stage Live in Malaysia 2011′ event at the i-City in Malaysia, where they amazed over 30,000 fans with their hit tracks, “Shock”, “Soom”, “Beautiful”, and “Rainy Days”.
The next day, the boys headed straight to the Kuala Lumpur Airport to catch their flight back to Korea. Amidst the chaotic crowd of fans, however, Yoseob managed to accidentally trip while walking back towards their terminal, causing him to drop all of his luggage onto the floor.
Shortly afterwards, Yoseob tweeted, “Ack! So embarrassing. I was so embarrassed before that I rushed out and didn’t get to say bye. To anyone who fell over from getting pushed, are you okay? I’m sorry.”
“Tripping over at the Malaysia Airport was 100% my fault. I’m more sorry to the fans who were shouting ‘Yoseob, I’m sorry’ to me. Anyway, I’m completely fine, so don’t worry.”
Fans were greatly moved by Yoseob’s consideration, and left comments such as, “This is why I’m a fan of Yang Yoseob”, “It’s touching to see his love for his fans”, and “Please don’t trip over in the future”.
On July 24th, B2ST represented South Korea at the ‘MTV World Stage Live in Malaysia 2011‘ event, held at the i-City in Malaysia.
Fans flooded the airport to meet B2ST’s arrival and welcomed the boys by singing their hit tracks like “Shock“, “Soom“, “Beautiful“, and “Rainy Days“. Over 30,000 fans from all over the world gathered to catch the boys perform live alongside other performance guests.
Social networking websites were hot with live updates on B2ST’s performances, so much to the point that B2ST was ranked at the top of every search engine several times throughout the night. This was their second invitation as representatives of Korea.
Performances from the 2 hour and 30 minute long event will be broadcast through 160 different broadcast networks on August 19th from 9 PM KST to 11:30 PM KST.
B2ST is also currently on their Asian fan meet tour and are also looking forward to their ‘United Cube‘ concert on August 14th.
