Part III – The Music

Make Your Move Fans: The casting of Yunho in a cameo role has created quite a sensation. How did you decide to include him in the film?

Yunho Rehearsing in Korea

Duane: I’ll be honest, the casting of Yunho was our partner SM Entertainment’s idea! They first suggested he do a cameo because he’s such an amazing dancer and performer, and they knew he would attract attention to the movie in parts of Asia. I had been to the SM Town concert at the Staples Center in October of 2010 (that’s actually where BoA and Derek first met!), and I saw TVXQ! perform live.

Staples Center During a SM Town Concert-the night that BoA and Derek first met.

During their number, Yunho had this spectacular solo that I thought was one of the closest performances I’d ever seen to Michael Jackson. He was incredible. So once SM suggested him, I loved the idea, but the logistical part of getting him in the movie was going to be a challenge. We were shooting in Toronto and his schedule was super tight. Once we locked our shoot schedule, SM Entertainment worked hard to find a window in Yunho’s schedule where he could fly to Toronto. They found two days! He had only two days to be in and out of the city.

NappyTabs created the choreography in Toronto, and they would upload it to Yunho in Korea, where he learned the choreography. But we were on such a tight schedule, if there had been any delays at the airport, we would have had to cut the number, because we only had that specific location for a specific time. Yunho arrived on Wednesday evening late in Toronto, and he went straight to the rehearsal studio with NappyTabs and our dancers, where he rehearsed for several hours with jet lag. The next morning, he reported to set early to shoot and just killed it.

I’m not sure I’d ever seen a dancer work as hard as he did. Once I called cut, he would be ready to go again in a matters of moments. He was incredibly gracious to all our crew, who knew he was a big star in Korea, but no one really knew how big until he arrived on set – there was just this energy about him that was contagious. We’re lucky we have him in the film.

[TRANS] 130914 150,000 People Swarm For Tickets For Kim Junsu’s Concert… ‘Incredible Popularity’

xiajunsuticketsnagoyayokohama

A total of 150,000 people swarmed in to grab tickets for JYJ Junsu (XIA)’s Nagoya and Yokohama concerts.

C-JeS Entertainment stated, “The spotlight is on Junsu’s Japanese tour, which will take him through two cities and six performances. A total of 50,000 people submitted their names for tickets for Junsu’s Nagoya concerts, which will seat 24,000 people from the 8th till the 10th of October, and 100,000 people applied for tickets for his Yokohama Arena concerts, which will seat 33,000 people from the 14th till the 16th. This means that a total of 150,000 people have applied for tickets when there are only 57,000 seats available.”

XIA Junsu’s second solo album was released in July and was praised as a “top quality album”. The album’s title song ‘Incredible’ topped the dance track iTunes charts in eight countries, including Japan, Hong Kong and Singapore as soon as the album was released. It also topped Japan’s Tower Records Charts, and Yinyue Tai’s weekly charts, proving that the singer is receiving a staggering amount of love from both Korea and the world.

A representative stated, “The anticipation for XIA Junsu’s music and top-quality performances, as well as the fact that he will be holding concerts in Nagoya and Yokohama instead of Tokyo, has put him in the spotlight of his Japanese fans. Though we have not run the ballot for tickets yet, he has already attracted a total 150,000 people in one week, despite the fact that he hasn’t been active in Japan. We’re expecting more fans to apply for a ticket as the ticket reservation period isn’t over yet.”

Meanwhile, Junsu kicked off his Asia Tour with the release of his second solo album. Starting in Bangkok, Thailand on the 20th of July, he has performed in Shanghai, Seoul and Busan, and is now preparing for his concert in Australia on the 28th of September and his Japanese tour.

[TRANS] 130910 Park Yoochun’s Noona Fanclub ‘Blessing Yoochun’ Has Donated 100 Million Won Across Three Years

blessingyoochun‘Blessing Yoochun’, the fan community of singer cum actor Park Yoochun (JYJ) took part in a meaningful donation drive to celebrate their third anniversary.

‘Blessing Yoochun’ was created in September of 2010 and is a fan community for fans who are 30 and above. They have been participating in various charity activities since their creation to express the love for Park Yoochun through meaningful charity work. Starting by collecting 10 million Won for Park Hyun Bin, who couldn’t have his burns treated because he did not have enough money to pay for his surgery three years ago, ‘Blessing Yoochun’ has been financially helping children with cancer, restoring study rooms for children in low-income families and providing children in financially unstable youth centers with free lunches.

The donation drive to commemorate their third anniversary has collected five million Won for a library and study room for children of interracial families in Jangsan-myun, an island in the Jeolla Province, and will be added to the 8,800 books and various school supplies that have been collected by the members of ‘Blessing Yoochun’. The small island-town will give the library the name, ‘Park Yoochun Library’.

This is not all. ‘Blessing Yoochun’ also provided Yoon Seo Gyun (5 years old) with three million Won for heart surgery, and the ‘Gana-an Our Home’, which is facing financial trouble with a large-scale admittance of newborn babies, with four million Won in cash and various school supplies as well. This brings their total to 12 million Won in cash, 8,805 books and one million Won’s worth of school supplies. The total amount that the fan community has collected over the past three years for those in need is 100 million Won. ‘Blessing Yoochun’ even collected enough funds to support Park Hyun Bin’s surgery this year, the second since their first-ever donation three years ago, proving that they are interested in staying in touch with those they have helped.

Park Yoochun is currently preparing for his role as ‘Dong Shik’ in Bong Joon Ho’s movie ‘Sea Fog’, which will start filming on the 30th of this month.
