Note: Hello, how is everyone doing? I know I have been missing from the scene for a long time. Sorry for the delayed update. Hope this don't happen too often.
A marketing viral by the slipper company, Havaianas.
The main guy in the mob, his name is Takahiro Ueno. He has appeared in Madonna's "Celebration" MTV before. This mob is choreographed by him, it is in conjunction with the launch of Celebration in Japan.
This is one of a kind flash mob. It's entirely musical, something different from the usual. They did a similar musical flash mob before at a food court. I hope to see more of such musical mobs in the future.
This mob took place last Friday. From what I read here, it seems this is the largest mob ever organised in Singapore / Asia and they are looking into submitting an entry into Guinness Book of World Records.
This is certainly a noble cause to support. Breast cancer is the #1 killer to women around the world. A fund raising organization such as this will definitely raise the awareness level of breast health in their local community.
2pm's fan did it again. This time instead of dancing, they did a freeze mob, indicating that the time has stop for them since Jae Bum left the boy band. The title for the mob is "Without you, Jaebum, it feels like the time has stopped". The freeze started from 1.58pm to 2pm.
Seems there is a huge craze for 2pm's fans to have the leader back into the band. Since he left, fans all over the world are doing (choreographed) flash mobs. I hope their wish will come true.
Here are some of the 'Mob-bings' that happened around his Birthday. Enjoy, I am sure you know the music (maybe not the moves). I just feel so connected to these kids, it just goes to show how he has impacted our lives when we were very young.
Truly in Michael Jackson fashion, just so global - transcending borders, race, culture, color, upbringing... just pure good fun & enjoyment.
Enjoy.

This mob has 2 parts, the first part is a group of people bursting into the middle of a crowd in a busy square while the second part is dancing in the middle of the traffic. Both dancing to MJ's song "Beat It" to commemorate this great entertainer that ever lived.
When the trade union Verdi in Berlin and their retail sector bosses ended in a deadlock, they organized a flash mob in a shopping center by filling up their carts with shopping items and leave it in the store aisles, instead of paying it. This has resulted business coming to a halt for an hour but also brought on an immediate effect on negotiations.
This flash mob came 2 days after the Germany’s Federal Labor Court decided that flash mob were a legitimate form of industrial action.
In the world K-pop (Short for Korean pop) there exists this group called 2pm, if you do not know. This pop group is a hit among the teens, recently due to some controversial issue; the leader had to leave the group abruptly. Now the disappointed fans, whom they called themselves “The Hottest”, from all over the world, are gathering up their act to do a flash mob in their respective country to urge the leader, Jaebum, to rejoin the group.
