Kim Jaejoong

Heodang (Lacking): Though Cha Mu Won of ‘Protect the Boss’ is a chaebol, there is definitely something he can’t do. His weakness is that he’s not good at fighting because all he does is lock himself up in his office and study. I expressed that in a very ‘heodang (lacking)’ way. I’m like that too. Because I’m not that active, I’m not that good at ball games. In the drama, I was made to look like I was even really good at sports, but in real life, I have a very ‘heodang’ nature. (Yoochun) I think it would be best.. if Jaejoong didn’t play ball games like soccer or basketball in front of others. (laughter)

Ji Sung: Even I could see myself getting better with every new episode. It would have been impossible if it weren’t for Ji Sung. He must have been busy enough studying his own character, but he took care of me and helped me run my lines. I think the scenes in which we were acting together came alive because I normally feel comfortable around Ji Sung.

Individual Activities: As you all know, we started pursuing individual activities to promote JYJ as we were unable to appear on music programs. Our individual activities became a great opportunity for us to promote JYJ. It started like that but we feel the charm of being an actor or a musical actor more and more as time goes on. (Yoochun) But personally, I don’t feel confident about pursuing a career in musicals. I think I’d be compared too much to Junsu. (laughter)

Park Yoochun

Cha Mu Won (Kim Jaejoong) of ‘Protect the Boss’: He took on his character very well. I found myself naturally falling into the drama as I watched it. I also feel envious of Jaejoong because he took on a character that could present something different from his original image and did so very well. It’s so much that if I ever get the chance, I’d like to play a character similar to the one that Jaejoong portrayed. I’m not joking when I saw that I could see this unknown aura around Jaejoong. So I thought, ‘So this is the power of Jaejoong. (Jaejoong) Thank you. My senior~

Song Yoo Hyun: While playing Song Yoo Hyun in MBC’s ‘Miss Ripley’, there were many moments when I thought, ‘If this were me, I would have exploded.’ But I acted with the understanding that, ‘It could happen because it’s Song Yoo Hyun.’ Though I can’t say that there weren’t moments when I felt frustrated, I laid down the judgment that it was because I was too unskilled in my portrayal of Song Yoo Hyun. If I felt frustrated, wouldn’t Song Yoo Hyun feel a little frustrated too? It was only after I was done filming the drama that I began to think ‘Couldn’t I have been able to express this in another way?’ instead of thinking that the script wasn’t helping with the frustration I had.

The villain’s part: I want to try playing the villain. I think the biggest reason is because I don’t look like a bad guy. Though I want to try taking on a role that pulls me away from the image I have now, I think it would only be right for me to take on such a role after I’ve become more experienced. For now, I want to try everything, regardless of the character.

Kim Junsu

Drama: It’s not that I’m not interested, it’s just that I had already taken part in two musicals this year and wanted to take a break instead of pursuing solo activities. And because each of the other members had his own schedules drawn for his respective drama, I believed it was only right for me to take that time to support them. I’d like to try acting in a drama someday. But it looked so tiring for Jaejoong and Yoochun to stay up all night filming, so I’m in a dilemma.

Together: We try to make every stage one that everyone can enjoy together. We don’t just show what we want to show and end the concert when we’re done, we try to work together with the crowd. We casually ask how they’re doing, and we immediately answer any questions they give us. Because there are a lot of restrictions on our activities that include broadcasted ones, we try to create a more free atmosphere when we meet with our fans and we work hard to satisfy them with our concerts. Though we like dramas and musicals, we started out as singers and we want to be singers forever.

[TRANS] 111004 JYJ Speaks Out #3 – A Conversation Of Their Own

Conversation 1. Kim Jaejoong’s cooking skills that were shown in the last episode of ‘Protect the Boss’

Jaejoong: I really did all the cooking for that episode.
Junsu: He especially cooked for us a lot in Japan. Midnight snacks and such.
Jaejoong: Junsu didn’t have many opportunities to try my cooking. Because he usually doesn’t eat midnight snacks.
Junsu: Yeah, I didn’t have much of it.
Jaejoong: Only Yoochun, I and Changmin ate lots of midnight snacks.
Junsu: He’s good at making kimchi fried rice and kimchi jjigae. There’s the japtang jjigae that he makes in which he throws in whatever we have left, and he makes it really taste good.
Yoochun: When we used to live in a dorm, I realized that he was really good at cooking when he would make great food, no matter what ingredients he was using. And he’s really good at seasoning his food. I think that’s why his cooking tastes great, no matter what he makes.
Junsu: He can make the food taste great without any artificial flavors. He takes pride in that fact. He never uses any artificial flavoring! (laughter)
Jaejoong: If I was born in the past, I would have been born as Jang-geum.

Conversation 2. Why are Kim Jaejoong and Park Yoochun members of the celebrity soccer team FC MEN, of which Kim Junsu is the captain of, only in name?

Junsu: It’s false (that the two members are promotional tools). I knew that the members would join in just because it was something I was doing, and I knew that the members like to play sports. We used to play soccer together a lot in the past.
Yoochun: The reason we joined in was because we knew everyone there and it was a hobby for us, but Junsu has practically become a professional player. (laughter)
Junsu: Honestly, even I didn’t think it would get this big.. Things happened and I ended up here. I had no intentions for it to end up this serious. (laughter)
Jaejoong: But the soccer team that Junsu’s a part of have done a lot of good things. When they were trying to attract more players, they would say ‘Celebrities such as Kim Junsu, Park Yoochun, Kim Jaejoong and Kim Hyun Joong are members’, but later, when they appeared on the news for doing good deeds, our (Yoochun and Jaejoong) names were left out!
Junsu: I’m not the one who wrote those articles. Please know that. I always wrote our members’ names first. And it’s not that I’m not letting them play. They never show up (to the soccer matches)!
Jaejoong: The media follows them whenever they have a match. I don’t feel comfortable falling over and looking lacking when there are cameras taking pictures of us.. (laughter)
Junsu: No, no, that’s only a small portion though. We play in so many more practice games by ourselves than in proper matches.
Jaejoong: I’ll go for one of those then. I wouldn’t object if it was a leisurely game in the neighborhood, but it’s a bit too much for me if there are reporters and fans who take pictures while we play. (laughter)
Junsu: To be honest, I was nervous at first too. You’re right. It is a bit nerve-wracking.

Conversation 3. What is the real job of Kim Junsu, who recently showed off his StarCraft skills on @Play on MBC’s gaming channel?

Junsu: (laughter)
Jaejoong: What is your real job indeed?
Junsu: I’m friends with Seo Kyung Jong and he’s been asking me to appear for a while. I wasn’t able to due to my work, and I just happened to have time off on that day so I was suddenly added into the show mere hours before it began.. It didn’t matter because it was just playing a game that I like.
Yoochun: Seriously.. I’m his fellow member but even I thought it was awesome.
Jaejoong: We were having such a hard time with appearing on broadcasted shows and he goes and appears on a gaming show. Wow~
Yoochun: It was amazing! And he’s good at it too.
Junsu: At least the gaming channel didn’t block me. (laughter)

Conversation 4. Kim Junsu stands in the center of ‘Xiahmori’ (The members intentionally teasing Xiah Junsu)

Junsu: Well.. I’m enjoying it in a composed manner. (laughter) These days, we rotate the person getting teased. Sometimes we do ‘Yoochun mori’ and sometimes we do ‘Jaejoong mori’.
Jaejoong: It’s because Junsu’s so nice. When we do ‘Yoochun mori’, Yoochun sulks and when it’s my turn, even I sulk and get mad. But Junsu never gets mad. And it’s fun. (laughter)
Yoochun: He just accepts it all.
Jaejoong: He’s so nice.
Junsu: Ah.. So does this mean I can never get mad from now on? (laughter)

Conversation 5. What does a recording studio mean to JYJ?

Yoochun: I moved recently. I’ve invested about 100 million Won to create a workroom inside, but the desk that fits the size of the instruments comes in late October so I have nowhere to put my instruments. So right now, it’s almost impossible for me to work on my compositions. The instruments are strewn about everywhere and I haven’t been able to set them up..
Junsu: Me too, me too. So I’ve been working on compositions on and off. I haven’t been able to write any songs.
Jaejoong: Brings the tracks and come to my house.
Yoochun: I’ve made a lot of tracks but I haven’t been able to make any guides.
Jaejoong: You can do it at our recording studio. The JYJ recording studio in Gangnam!
Junsu: By the way, there’s a reason why there aren’t that many of Yoochun’s compositions in our album. He was filming for ‘SungKyunKwan Scandal’ when we were preparing for the album so he wasn’t able to write any songs.
Jaejoong: I’ve heard some of the songs that Yoochun’s written.. (shakes his head) They’re sensational. Sensational.
Junsu: There’s one song that I really like out of all of Yoochun’s songs. We’ve been keeping it as our weapon. We were thinking of putting it in this album, but we decided to present it in our next album. He’s really good (at writing songs).

[TRANS] 111007 JYJ Park Yoochun, Enjoys A Night During The Busan International Film Festival

Attending the Busan International Film Festival (BIFF) for the first time, JYJ’s Park Yoochun was seen enjoying the night at Busan.

The 16th BIFF opened on 6 October, and Yoochun was seen near Busan’s Haewondae, eating with friends at a nearby restaurant, with the atmosphere for the film festival in full force. He was also joined by Ji Sung, who had just completed the drama “Protect the Boss,” and they had a good time together.

On 7 October, Yoochun together with his group members Junsu and Jaejoong, will be appearing at the Star Road event, but Yoochun arrived in Busan a day earlier than his members.

Yoochun, Junsu and Jaejoong will be joining the Star Road event, walking the red carpet and appearing as actors at their first BIFF.

The three members have already participated in dramas and musicals, and have now paved their way as actors, and that probably makes this event even more meaningful to them.

Personal items that have been donated by celebrities are flooding in for the 2011 Weaja Market.

The variety and stories behind the items are plenty as the stars donate clothes and shoes from dramas, movies and CFs or everyday-use items.

JYJ’s Kim Junsu delivered a pair of orange soccer cleats that he wore for a soccer match.

Weaja is a ‘We Start’ movement that supports the welfare of children in low-income families and is a market that helps those in need by donating all proceeds from selling items that people no longer use. As the biggest charity market in Korea, Weaja’s  name takes the first letters from ‘We Start’, Areumdaun (Beautiful) market and Jawonbongsa (volunteer work) and will be holding its seventh annual market this year.

The market will be open from 12:30pm till 4:30pm on the 16th of October and will be held at the Seoul World Cup Stadium’s Northern Square, the Busan Shinsaegae department store’s parking lot, the Daejun city hall’s Southern Square and the Jeonju provincial government building’s square.

NEWS 111004 KBS President “JYJ” May Request For Reexamination of Banned Song

[News] 111004 KBS President “JYJ May Request For Reexamination For Banned Song [Pierrot]

 

In regards to the group JYJ’s song [Pierrot], which was banned by KBS citing the reason that it specifically attacks a particular person, KBS President said, “They may submit a request for a reexamination anytime.”

On the afternoon of the 4th, during a paliamentary inspection of the Committee for Culture, Sports, Tourism & Broadcasting Communication, Jun Byung Hun (Democratic Party), a member of the National Assembly, questioned KBS President Kim In Kyu and asked, “JYJ’s [Pierrot] is banned because the lyrics ‘PSM’ is targeted at a specific person. What is the standard of consideration?”

President Kim said, “According to the deliberation committee, the lyrics ‘PSM’ in JYJ’s [Pierrot] are problematic as it points to a specific person” and “Although JYJ’s side has said that ‘PSM’ stands for ‘Professional Success Music’, it doesn’t match when the lyrics are looked in their entirety.”

He also added, “JYJ may submit a request for a reexamination any time.”

To this, Congressman Jun asked in return, “Is KBS the spokesperson for Mr Lee Soo Man?” and “Why do you refuse to believe the person who wrote the song? Why do you have to interpret ‘PSM’ as refering to Mr Lee Soo Man?” President Kim said in replied, “The members of the deliberation committee judged that it is likened to that given name” and “I will request that the deliberation committee be more open to flexible interpretations.”

The other day, on 28 September, KBS announced the results for the review of JYJ’s album through their website and judged that the songs [Pierrot] and [Mission] were banned as they contained “lyrics that were personal attacks”.

KBS had explained that the song [Pierrot] resulted in being banned because it suggested “personal attacks to an individual” and that it showed a personal grudge towards a particular individual as the lyrics “‘P.S.M’ obviously represents ‘President, Lee Soo Man’”.

[Trans] From 110928 JYJ Are Unable To Sell More Albums Because They’ve Sold Them All

50,000 copies are sold in two days since its release… More CDs to be produced as there aren’t enough in stock

JYJ’s first Korean album ‘In heaven’ has sold 50,000 copies in one day.

‘In heaven’ topped Hanteo Charts’ daily and live charts on the 28th and by 5p.m., it was recorded that JYJ sold over 50,000 copies of their new album.

These record-breaking sales were expected from the start. Orders flooded in from the 10th and they recorded pre-orders of 300,000 copies. Though the album’s distribution company is working at a fast pace to fill the orders that have been placed, it’s actually running low on albums to distribute.

 This explosive reaction is also occurring online. All of the songs of the album, including ‘In heaven’, the title song by Kim Jaejoong, and the pre-released ‘Get Out’, ranked high on various music charts.

C-JeS Entertainment stated, “We are currently pushing the distribution company to fill the pre-orders,” and “We will soon begin printing an additional set of albums.”
