The popular unit Tohoshinki started their fan club event “THE MISSION ll” on November 23rd in the Saitama Super Arena, which brought in 100 thousands people(2 locations, 8times).

The venue filled with 18 thousand fans, with the call of “Tohoshinki” the two came out on a segway from the back of the fans, and challenged many “Missions”. Just like last year they borrowed fans items and had a coordinate fight, which the theme was “make the room Christmas(ish)”. They coordinated by using aroma candles and wine, coordinating the room set. After finishing their coordination, Yunho’s theme was “a house date with the person I like” and Changmin “a shut-in’s fire works” (shut in refers to people who don’t like to go outside/withdrawal from the society). After lighting the borrowed candle, Changmin was for sure of his victory but dropped his shoulders when Yunho won.

Also, they played games such as pick the number 1 of the survey fans took beforehand, put in order of items by price and others. Even though they were supposed to play together, Yunho who leaded on by himself, Changmin gave a bitter smile saying “my thoughts, aren’t even any % in”. Even with that complaint, it didn’t affect Yunho at all. The venue was filled with laughter because of the two.

In the solo corner, they revealed a “specialty they have confidence in”. Changmin played ping pong with a fan who won out of 4500 people.Changmin, who seemed to not know about it, seemed a bit unconfident. Even after scoring a smash, he lost. Yunho complimented, “it was a good game. It seems like Changmin’s abilities came back”. Changmin who couldn’t hide his mortification told him “Saying so bossy as if your a ping pong god” and brought laughter. On the other hand, Yunho showed his cooking skills again. Yunho who seemed high spirited commented “I will show a leveled up Yunho chef!”, and showed a “Yunhoghetti” (yunho+spaghetti) which was “fluffly egg and cod roe spaghetti” and appealed his skills. How he handled the cut vegetables (how he cleaned it / cooked it) brought a stir from the audience, but confidently said “(don’t worry) since I’m Yunho chef!”. After Changmin who tried it commented “its good, but whats the meaning of putting spaghetti inside the egg? Since you eat it separately anyway….” and made the venue hotter.

In the second half live, they sang 6 songs including “SCREAM”. Yunho “Its a Christmas present from Tohoshinki”, and sang his solo song “繋がれた舟” (A boat tied to a pier) and “Gold Dust” by Changmin, they had prepared for this event, Changmin even showing his guitar skills. Also they revealed for the first time their new song that’s going to be released on the 27th of this month “Very Merry Christmas”, “White”, and music video. At the end Changmin started “We have a important notice”, Yunho “We will start a live tour from next April!” it’s exciting” and when it got announced the theme colored light stick all turned red, bringing joy to the audience.

Tohoshinki will start their tour including the dome’s from next April (11 locations 26 concerts).

Deadly Tornado Outbreak Sweeps Midwest

By Mark Leberfinger, AccuWeather.com Staff Writer
November 17, 2013; 8:00 PM

At least seven people were killed as a result of Sunday’s tornado outbreak in the Midwest.

Patty Thompson with the Central Office of the Illinois Emergency Management Agency confirmed that there have been six fatalities for the state and that there are likely over 100 injured, though that number is not yet official.

The Associated Press has reported an additional death in Michigan as a result of the storms.

Washington County, Ill., Coroner Mark Styninger told The Associated Press that an elderly man and his sister were killed around noon local time when a tornado hit their home in the rural community of New Minden in southern Illinois.

The AP also reported a third death occurred in New Minden while two other deaths occurred in Massac County, also in southern Illinois.

The New Minden tornado was preliminarily rated as an EF-4 (166 to 200 mph) on the Enhanced Fujita Scale, according to an initial survey by the National Weather Service Forecast Office in St. Louis.

At least 20 people were injured there, The AP reported. More than 30 people were injured around Nashville, Ill., WBBM-AM/FM reported.

Tornado touchdowns were reported Sunday in Illinois, Indiana and Kentucky.

At least 68 tornado reports have been received by NOAA’s Storm Prediction Center, along with about 400 wind damage reports on Sunday.

A majority of the reports came from Indiana and Illinois, where AccuWeather.com meteorologists expected the worst storms to take shape.

“It had the best combination of instability; the sun came out several hours before the thunderstorms blew up,” AccuWeather.com Senior Meteorologist Frank Strait said. “The wind shear was also favorable for tornadoes.”

Based on photographs of some of the tornado touchdowns, the destruction looks “pretty serious,” Strait said.

“It was what we thought there would be: big, violent-type tornadoes,” Strait said.

An apartment complex was severely damaged in Washington, Ill., according to the Peoria Journal Star. A shelter was established for those in need of a place to live for the time being.

The Central Illinois chapter of the American Red Cross was setting up additional shelters around Washington, the chapter said on its Twitter feed. Seven shelters had opened across Illinois, according to the Illinois Emergency Management Agency’s website.

The Illinois National Guard said 10 firefighters from the 182nd Airlift Wing were deployed to Washington to aid with search and rescue efforts.

Another tornado was reported in the Chicago suburb of Frankfort, Ill.

At one point, more than 116,000 Ameren Illinois customers were without power Sunday afternoon as a result of the storms, according to the utility’s website.

A state of emergency was declared by Mayor Greg Goodnight in Kokomo, Ind., where significant storm damage was reported.

Emergency management reported at least one home was destroyed by a tornado and another was severely damaged near Logansport, Ind. Gas leaks in the area also forced evacuations.

The Union County, Ky., emergency management office said a tornado caused widespread damage countywide with homes, a garage and outbuildings destroyed.

A November tornado outbreak is not unprecedented, occurring once every four to five years, Strait said.

“It looks like this will go down as one of the worst we have seen in November in recorded history,” Strait said.

Since the segment aired on the 13th, people who have already bought tickets for the production expressed their heightened anticipation for ‘December’. Many viewers expressed their delight over seeing Kim Junsu on a televised program for the first time in a while. Through an interview, Kim Junsu stated, “When I heard the song for the first time, I was shaking with excitement. I’m honored to be singing a song that the world has never heard before.”

 

Netizens who heard the news left supportive comments such as “Seeing Kim Kwang Seok’s keepsakes was great”, “I hope Kim Junsu’s version of ‘December’ will be released on online music sites soon”, and “Seeing them so focused on their rehearsals makes waiting till the 16th of December so hard.” The netizens’ support had the musical ranking high up on the search rankings of various portal sites.

 

‘December’, a heartwarming love story that takes place over twenty years, will open its curtains on the 16th of December at the Sejong Culture Centre.

Xiumin has expressed how much he looks up to TVXQ.

EXO’s Xiumin appeared on SBS Power FM’s ‘Park So Hyun’s Love Game’ on the 3rd of November and revealed that he has liked TVXQ since before his days as a SM trainee.

Xiumin looked back on his first meeting with TVXQ and said, “I’ve looked up to TVXQ since before I joined the company. I met then two weeks after I became a trainee during their ‘Mirotic’ activities. My heart was racing and it was an electrifying moment for me.”

He continued to say, “At first, I couldn’t even speak. Though I’ve made my debut, I still feel nervous when I meet U-Know Yunho and Max Changmin. I still feel like just another fan.” DJ Park So Hyun added to his comments by saying, “The two singers’ power, vocal talent and charisma are still the best of the industry.”

When picking which singer he would like to appear on stage with, Xiumin picked TVXQ. He expressed his respect for them as he stated, “How amazing would it be if I could stand between them? How great would that be, right?”
