110829 Park Yoochun Wins SDA Popularity Award – Heavy Burden On Shoulders


Winner of the Netizen’s Popularity Award for the Seoul Drama Awards 2011, JYJ Member Park Yoochun said,  “I’m thankful, but there’s a heavy burden on my shoulders” expressing his gratitude in his greeting.
On the early afternoon of 29 August, Park Yoochun attended the Seoul Drama Awards 2011 press conference at the 20th Floor of the Seoul News Center, at the International Meeting Hall.  He will be receiving the netizen’s popularity award on 31 August during the Seoul Drama Awards  2011 ceremony, held in the KBS Hall in Yeouido, Seoul.

On his winning of the netizen’s popularity award, Park Yoochun said, “Firstly, for me, who is still lacking, I’m really thankful for such a big award. As these votes came from all over Asia, the meaningfulness, as well as burden on my shoulders become greater. I think that the artists and staff working hard together to produce good works is a way of repaying the fans.”

Following that, he said “This is not just a global promotion of cultural content, but the reason why these people show love for hallyu, and working hard to understand those countries’ culture, these are also ways of repaying (their love.)” he supplemented.

Park Yoochun, who put up a great performance in last year’s KBS drama “SungKyunKwan Scandal, won by a landslide in the Korean actors category of the online popularity poll which was held between 18 July to 16 August, for a period of approximately one month.

To this, Park Yoochun said, “I just started out as an actor, so I still have a lot of greed. To do the tasks that I am given well, to work hard on my activities, and to be able to make a small contribution to the hallyu culture gives me a great sense of pride.”

On his secret to overseas popularity, he said. “I’m not exactly sure why there is so much love from overseas fans. More so than others, language is a big issue. I faced many problems with language in the 5 years of doing activities in Japan, and now there are even more language barriers to cross. Although I can’t express myself in various countries’ languages, I still hope that they can see my effort,” he said, evaluating himself.
Also, when asked about a strong rival, Park Yoochun picked fellow JYJ member Kim Jaejoong, who is now appearing in the SBS Wednesday-Thursday drama “Protect the boss.” Park Yoochun said, “I’m going to the shooting location tomorrow. Although we have a good relationship, I’m cautious of him” he said jokingly.

This year, is the 6th year it’s been held, the Seoul Drama Awards 2011 will be jointly organized by the Seoul Drama Awards committee and the Korean Broadcasting corporation, and is an annual affair. The comittee led by(Director) Im Kwon Taek includes professionals from dramas and movies all over the world, judging short films, series and long films, evaluating 39 works. The Seoul Drama Awards will be held in the Seoul Yeouido KBS Hall on 31 August, and will be aired on SBS.

MC: Mr. Park Yoochun, please say some words of your thoughts and feelings.
Yoochun: Thank you very much. A lot of people have gathered here. First of all, I would like to say that I am very happy to be receiving an award of such enormity. The people that contributed to the votes this time was people all over Asia, which is why it has a more deeper meaning and at the same time, I feel a certain pressure. It’s been like this from before but I feel that recently the Korean wave and our Korean contents has been receiving a lot of love so I think it is our duty, along with the staff and all production people to return this love by creating good products. Not just to simply display our culture in our products and give it out to the world, but to also understand the cultures from the countries that receive such love from and to put our efforts into this. This is how I feel we can return the feelings that we are getting from our viewers. Also beginning from now, I want to become a Park Yoochun who will work even harder. Thank you very much.

MC: Who is your rival amongst the stars in this Korean wave?
Yoochun: Rival? Recently…right now I can say that it’s the actor in SBS drama “Protect the Boss” (Jaejoong). Tomorrow I think I’ll be visiting their set, and althought he and I are very close he is someone that always has his guard up.

110826 JYJ “We Will Work Hard To Correct The Misconceptions Surrounding AIDS”


Popular trio JYJ have revealed that they will do their best to correct the misconceptions surrounding AIDS.
JYJ (Kim Jaejoong, Park Yoochun, Kim Junsu) attended te opening ceremony of the 10th International Congress on AIDS in Asia and the Pacific (ICAAP10) that was held in Busan on the 26th and received their ‘Regional Goodwill Ambassador’ appointment letters from Michel Sidibé, the Secretary General of UNAIDS.

Secretary General of UNAIDS says to JYJ, “Thank you, thank you, and thank you for acception”


Secretary General Michel Sidibé explained why JYJ were chosen as he said, “The infection rate of AIDS is high across the world. AIDS affects even children and teenagers and a victory will be impossible in this fight unless a movement for change begins in the younger generation,” and “This is why we have chosen JYJ to become regional goodwill ambassadors (as they are popular with children and teenagers in the region).”

He continued to say, “It is an honor to know that JYJ will put into action the work I’ve been planning,” and “JYJ will be working hard to provide correct information about HIV. They will not only be active in Korea and Asia, but the entire world.”

The Secretary General had expectations for JYJ that clearly exceeded that which is normally given to goodwill ambassadors. Sidibé stated, “I firmly believe that JYJ will be the forerunners in this new movement for change and work with us,” and “Thank you, thank you, and thank you for acception.
JYJ say, “We will work hard to correct the misconceptions surrounding AIDS”



The members of JYJ then expressed their thoughts about becoming goodwill ambassadors for the cause. Kim Junsu looked determined as he said, “Many people see AIDS as a disease that is fatal and dangerous if contracted, but it’s now being said that people can live long even if they have AIDS as long as they receive continuous treatment. As treatment that completely eradicates AIDS hasn’t been discovered yet, a continuous stream of attention and effort to prevent contraction is required. We will work hard to do so.
Park Yoochun added, “Many people have taken interest in JYJ in the Asia and Pacific region,” and “We will work hard to correct the misconceptions surrounding AIDS so people know what exactly it is and how to prevent it.”

The members of JYJ received a gift from Secretary General Sidibé that represents solidarity. Following this, JYJ took a photo with the Secretary General and Jo Myung Hwan, the head of the ICAAP10 committee. Shouts were heard when JYJ entered and excited the event hall from the 100 fans who gathered to see them. A representative of ICAAP10 stated, “I was so surprised when I heard a large noise at the event hall, but I later learned it was the fans.” JYJ also performed at the event’s welcome party that began at 5p.m..

Meanwhile, ICAAP10 is being held from the 26th till the 30th of August under the theme ‘Diverse Voices, United Actions’ and will look back on the progress made in prevention and treatment in the past 30 years to commemorate the 30th year since AIDS was first discovered as well as bring up future plans. 4,000 people from 70 countries will participate in ICAAP10 and this will be the first time that the congress is held in Korea.
Though the first lady, Kim Yoon Ok, was scheduled to attend the welcome party, she was unable to do so as she was visiting Kazakhstan with the president. The head of the ICAAP10 committee Jo Myung Hwan delivered the first lady’s congratulatory message instead. Nafis Sadik, Special Adviser to the UN Secretary General, delivered UN Secretary General Ban Ki Moon’s message as well.

110827 Wang Ji Hae Says, “The Kiss Scene With Kim Jaejoong, I Was Scared That I’d Be Reviled For It”

Actress Wang Ji Hae, who has become the center of attention for sharing a surprise kiss scene with Hallyu star Kim Jaejoong smiled as she confessed that she was scared that she would be reviled for it by fans.


On the episode of SBS’ Wednesday-Thursday drama ‘Protect the Boss’ that aired on the 18th, Wang Ji Hae shared a surprise kiss scene with Kim Jaejoong, who plays Cha Mu Won. The scene showed Cha Mu Won taking Seo Na Yoon by surprise in an intimate kiss. Though the scene itself was beautiful, Wang Ji Hae worried about the fact that she shared a kiss scene with Kim Jaejoong, a Hallyu star with many female fans.

Wang Ji Hae said, “Isn’t a woman’s jealousy such a scary thing? So honestly, I was scared that I’d be reviled when I was told that there was a kiss scene.

But she continued to say, “But I was surprised. I received lots of messages on Cyworld and most of them said, ‘It’s my man’s own business what he does at work so I’ll accept it.’ I think they let me off the hook because Na Yoon isn’t a bad character.”



Wang Ji Hae revealed, “Lots of people told me how envious they are of me,” and “I was scared, but the fans are so well-mannered.

Meanwhile, Wang Ji Hae has her viewers in bouts of laughter as she plays Seo Na Yoon, the seemingly perfect chaebol daughter who reluctantly concedes to the fact that she has been bested by a secretary No Eun Seol (Choi Kang Hee) in the eyes of Cha Ji Hun (Ji Sung) and Cha Mu Won (Kim Jaejoong).

Junsu’s Interview in 3hree Voices II Photobook — Appeal Points, Soccer Team

Here is the translation of Junsu’s interview that was provided in the “3hree Voices II” photobook!!



Q: Please let us know of an “appeal point” for which you could say “if you were to go out with me, you’ll find these things to be good.”

Junsu: Um… every night (suddenly laughing playfully) E♪very Night♬! Wow, what do I do (now that I’ve said that). What to do! I’ll sing for the woman that I like every night. I’ll sing whatever is requested!

Q: If in the future you get a girlfriend will you reveal that?

Junsu: I won’t hide it. I also don’t want to make it a secret to the fans. It is natural that a person meets another person and begins to like her. It’s not a bad thing. But since that may put her in a bit of a pinch, I am mindful about that. If the girlfriend has no problems I think personally wouldn’t it be fine to tell everyone and date.

Q: If you do a radio broadcast, what kind of a broadcast would you want to do?

Junsu: I want to do a broadcast that is made by everyone together—the things that the listeners worry about, we will talk about, saying “if it were me, I’d do X.” About love, I think the program can give good adbice. The three are all very serious when it comes to love.

Q: The three all joined the soccer team, are they practicing hard?

Junsu: Oh My God (in English)! They are not practicing! It’s only been 3 months since the team was formed. Jaejoong on the first hand joined the team in a position similar to that of a coach. Yoochun joined as a player but does not show enthusiasm… I am thinking about cutting him! Puhahaha!

Yoochun’s Interview in 3hree Voices II Photobook — Ideal Woman, Appeal Point

And finally, here is the translation of Yoochun’s interview that was provided in the “3hree Voices II” photobook!


Q: Please let us know of an “appeal point” for which you could say “if you were to go out with me, you’ll find these things to be good.”

Yoochun: Because I am busy I won’t be able to meet her very often. So I won’t be a man who is bothersome. Of course I will send her timely text messages. I will also express my affections a lot. I shall try… I think that always we shall meet with the feeling of new. Even if we become (as old as a) grandfather and grandmother, we will be able to spend time with each other like lovers.

Q: What is the food that you wish your girlfriend would make you?

Yoochun: Croquettes and jjigae! A croquette is something that is eaten as bread in Korea but in Japan you eat it with rice, you know? I think it is good that you can eat it together with rice after preparing the rice. Jjigae (T/N: thick soup, Korean food) is also eaten with rice. So, croquettes and jjigae.

Q: : Is your ideal woman unchanged from before?

Yoochun: That a domestic/family-oriented woman is my ideal has not changed! But I think that now, on top of that, I wish she’d be someone who can get along well with my mother also. I don’t know what kind of a person will be able to get along well, but now a relative has come over to our house and so there are many women. I wish that she’d be someone who will be able to get along well with them from the beginning, and have a personality that can be family (with them).

Q: If in the future you get a girlfriend will you reveal that?

Yoochun: Huh? A girlfriend? To who? To me? (Lets out a very deep sigh) To “reveal” means to say to everyone that “I’ve gotten a girlfriend,” right? I really want to try doing that. I want to reveal it. But wouldn’t it be after sufficient time has passed after we begin to date? I think that if it is a woman that I can say “shall I marry her now?” I will reveal it.

Jaejoong’s Interview in 3hree Voices II Photobook — Ideal Girlfriend, Cute Butt, and Relaxation

This is the translation of Jaejoong’s interview that was provided in the “3hree Voices II” photobook. Enjoy his answers, as usual!



Q: Please let us know about things for which you could say “if you were to go out with me, you’ll find these things to be good.”
Jaejoong: “As for household tasks, I will do all of them for you. Ah, as for the laundry and tidying up, shall we share them… a bit? (Laugh) As for the meals, I will take care of them. (Suddenly using a solid, “reliable” voice) “Do not worry. I’ll do them for you! Because I’m good at cooking at the very least!”

Q: Is your ideal woman unchanged from before?
Jaejoong: I have said this before, but I wish that she has pretty hands and feet. I also wish that she has a cute butt! As for just what kind of a butt, it’s hard to explain… and I hope she has a lot of cute charm. Someone who presses herself into me while we walk on the street… I like someone who tells me to pamper her (like a baby).

Q: In the past 1 year, what was the moment in which you felt that you have changed the most?
Jaejoong: This applies to all three of us. For those who look at us from the outside, it perhaps seems that we have become more relaxed (because we can afford to)? But it is a feeling that on the inside there is no true relaxation… it is a bit difficult to explain. I think that once the relaxation that is seen from the outside is gone, there will be true relaxation. The important one, probably, is the spiritual one.

Q: Then, if you had a girlfriend, how would that change things?
Jaejoong: I will thoroughly say that “I don’t have a girlfriend, really I don’t have a girlfriend.” Because I’m someone whose heart is discovered easily. During normal times I say “Ah, I really want to have a girlfriend!” But if I were to have a girlfriend, I’d probably avoid your eyes and say “Ah… I don’t have one.” Shall I say that I’d act unnatural? I think something would be a bit off.”

110827 Hayato’s Blog Updates


Aug 26, 2011

We are doing our best

In August, there should have been 2 X-days.

The 3V2 application and the photobook.

But, you cannot purchase the photobook in Japan…

It was originally planned for JYJ fans, so we were also looking forward that everyone here will be delighted.
Yes, it is difficult to get them.. to say in other words, their situation in Japan is much more difficult than other countries.

They are not ignoring the Japanese fans… and, we are not saying that the fans should give up… the persons related are now doing their best.

JYJ has become free a little bit, and the feathers are beginning to grow on their backs.

Even though they are still under difficult conditions…their talents are blooming, and they are now able to fly.
I am really impressed seeing their real ability.

But, I want them to become free much more, and fly the big skies.

It may take some time before their feathers will be strong.

When the time comes, they should first fly to Japan… don’t you all think that should be the most important matter?

In order for them to do so, we are now doing our best.

Let’s look forward to that special date…

110817 “There’s A Possibility That TVXQ Will Come Back As Five Next Year?” Says The Japanese Media


An article stating that there is a possibility that TVXQ will come back as five has surfaced in Japan. Though it doesn’t base itself on accurate facts, the article is garnering much attention from Japanese fans as TVXQ are extremely popular in the country.

The Japanese weekly magazine ‘Shukan Post’ recently incorporated an article of the celebrity gossip magazine ‘Women 7′ to report that, “There are movements that lead to a comeback by TVXQ as five next year in Korea.”

The magazine stated that Kim Jaejoong’s tweet on the 26th of July that said, ” I don’t know if I can say this or not.. but I miss Yunho and Changmin too..” adds weight to the possibility that the five will get back together again.

The article gave the analysis that though the members have split into a duo and a trio since halting all activities as five last April, there has been and always will be a possibility that they can get back together because the friendship amongst the members still exists.

They then continued their stance that the five could come back as five, using the words of a journalist residing in Korea as evidence. This journalist stated,“Actually, there have been rumors emerging that TVXQ will make a comeback as five next year in Korea. I believe that the K-POP boom that TVXQ helped grow will now help TVXQ get back together again as five.”

The article gained much interest from Japanese fans as soon as it was released and was ranked the most read article on the 17th on Shukan Post’s website.

However, it unfortunately seems that there isn’t much of a possibility that TVXQ will get back together again soon.

Emphasizing that this wasn’t an official statement, TVXQ’s agency SM Town stated, “We are left speechless and unable to give an answer to this article as it merely deals with the rumor that TVXQ will get back together again with no true facts to use as evidence. Also, as we are currently locked in a lawsuit, we are not in the position to say anything about TVXQ’s reunification,” and “We were surprised to see that such rumors of reunification have come out in Japan when there hasn’t been a single rumor like it in Korea.

BILLBOARD K-POP HOT 100


Billboard goes K-Pop on Aug. 25th with the launch of a new chart, the Billboard K-Pop Hot 100. The tally, which ranks Korea’s top-selling songs, kicks off with girl group Sistar’s “So Cool” grabbing the No. 1 slot and beating out second-place Leesang and 2NE1, who land not only at No. 3 (with “Ugly”) but also No. 14 (“Hate You”) and No. 21 (“I Am The Best”) on the chart dated Sept. 3.

—————–

Looking at the chart, Junsu’s “You Are So Beautiful” is in the top 10, spotting at number 8.




—————–


The Billboard K-Pop Hot 100 chart, launched in conjunction with Billboard Korea, is based on digital sales via leading websites as well as downloads from mobile service sites using an industry-standard formula and the most credible music data sources within Korea. The K-Pop Hot 100 debuts simultaneously here on Billboard.com, in the international chart section of Billboard.biz, in Billboard magazine, and also on Billboard Korea’s website, billboard.co.kr.

“The launch of the Billboard K-Pop Hot 100 chart is a milestone event, as it will provide the Korean music market with what we believe is Korea’s most accurate and relevant song ranking,” says Silvio Pietroluongo, Billboard’s Director of Charts. “We’re excited to be expanding Billboard’s globally recognized Hot 100 chart franchise into this country, and look forward to enhancing the K-Pop Hot 100 chart in the near future with additional data as well as creating new charts that showcase the breadth of Korean music.”

Meanwhile the artists dominating the top of the inaugural Billboard K-Pop Hot 100 reflect the fact that hit-making girl groups are a top attraction in Korean music. Sistar and 2NE1 are just two examples. T-ara, made up of seven young ladies, has secured the No. 4 position as well as grabbing No. 73 (visit Billboard.biz soon for positions No. 51-100). Miss A, whose influential management company also manages the ever popular Wonder Girls, rounds out the top five with their single “Good-bye Baby.” Here’s a closer look at five of the female groups ruling the K-Pop 100 this week.

@sungjinyang:
As the ICAAP10 Herald editor, it was just me and representatives of the UN who conducted the interview. Personally chatting with JYJ face to face, they really are very handsome young people. They also have rather sincere thoughts as ambassadors, which makes them all the more reliable~

@beyondmonica :
Also, when they rode the elevator after the performance, drenched in sweat, they said ‘When we were singing In Heaven, it would’ve been better if everyone could watch us sing,’ smiling with an ounce of loneliness. On the stage, they are the most free and joyful people ‘now’.

@beyondmonica:
The three of them holding their breaths while concentrating on the senior’s suave performances on ‘I Am A Singer’, individually touched. Listening to them singing ‘In Heaven’ today, I felt like I was an audience member of ‘I Am Singer’, my heart felt a sudden flash of hotness. Although the sound system wasn’t enough to showcase their outstanding singing, it was still a stage filled with sincerity that would induce goosebumps. The precious and real stage. Their stage.

T/N: She’s referring to their perf after the UNAIDS ceremony.

Asian pop band “JYJ” appointed as UNAIDS Regional Goodwill Ambassador

Press release

Asian pop band “JYJ” appointed as UNAIDS Regional Goodwill Ambassador


BUSAN, South Korea, 26 August 2011 — “JYJ,” a three-member Korean pop (K-pop) band from the Republic of Korea, have been named UNAIDS Regional Goodwill Ambassadors for Asia and the Pacific. Formed in 2010, JYJ has a large following among young people in the Republic of Korea, across Asia and beyond.

“Jae joong, Yoochan and Jun su (JYJ) are going to make a big difference in the AIDS response through the UNAIDS Ambassadorship,” said UNAIDS Executive Director Michel Sidibé. “With their incredible popularity and influence in the Republic of Korea and beyond, I count on them to reach millions of young people in this region and worldwide with important HIV messages,” he added.

As UNAIDS Regional Goodwill Ambassadors, JYJ will take part in a number of events and public appearances—including a performance at the Congress on AIDS in Asia and the Pacific (ICAAP10), a gathering of AIDS experts and activists from 26-30 August 2011 in Busan, South Korea. Through these and other events, JYJ will raise awareness around HIV and join the effort to end AIDS-related stigma and discrimination. They will also highlight AIDS issues through their social media networks.

“Young people in our country, and across Asia, need to know more about avoiding HIV infection,” said JYJ band member Jae joong at a press conference in Busan to announce the UNAIDS appointment. “Knowledge and awareness can help people protect themselves and break down stigma and discrimination.” His band-mate Yoochun concurred, adding: “AIDS has been here since before I was born. Our generation can be the one that ends it!”

“We can reach the goals of zero new HIV infections, zero discrimination and zero AIDS-related deaths,” said Jun su, the third JYJ band member. “We are very proud to participate in this cause.”

JYJ have previously been involved in a number of charitable activities. They have made major donations to relief operations in disaster-struck areas of Japan, as well as to child health campaigns. Underlining their commitment to the AIDS response, JYJ recently accepted the role of ‘Official Ambassador’ for ICAAP10.


Globally, an estimated 41% of people who have recently become HIV-positive are younger than the age of 25. In Asia and the Pacific, young people from key affected populations— including young sex workers, men who have sex with men, and adolescent drug users— face a particularly high risk of HIV infection as well as high levels of stigma and discrimination.

110825 The “Elementary School Kids” Couple Ji Sung and Jaejoong, Filled With Comical Antics‏

In the drama, Ji Sung and Jaejoong were rivals in power struggle and not only that, they became love rivals due to Nol Eun Sul, displaying their rather interesting behaviours. On the 24th August’s broadcasted episode, the two got into a fight for Nol Eun Sul. Rather than saying the scene was a brawl between the love rivals, it instead resembles a tussle between elementary kids, both ignoring stares from bystanders. Together with Nol Eun Sul who is like the elder sister who tried to mediate the little brothers, they formed an interesting scene.

Additionally, after the scene with their grandmother threatening them with her legacy, Mu Won especially picked up Ji Hyun’s most hated garlic and gave it to him as a ‘loving’ act, which further angered Ji Hyun.

In Ji Hyun’s room, Mu Won told Ji Hyun, “Be it the management rights to the company or Nol Eun Sul, I’m going to take it all.” To which Ji Hyun replied, “Why does it has to be you!” The child-like duo then began their pillow fight. The usually calm Director Mu Won always became an elementary student after meeting Ji Hyun.

But this elementary school kids couple Mu Won and Ji Hyun was set to be such charismatic comical. In fact, it portrays an unique lively atmosphere in the usual mundane rivalry plotline, increasing the entertainment of the drama.
