Kim Junsu Birthday and Birth of ‘December’, the Musical

Wow! What a lot of accomplishments for the year 2013, Birthday Man. We have seen Xia all over the planet, and Kim Junsu all over the entertainment field. He has starred on the song and dance stage in two major Asian and World Tours, and has excited us with the three Xia album hits ‘Uncommitted’, ‘Incredible’, and ’11 am’. Junsu has performed once again in the musical ‘Elisabeth’, and in the ‘Ballad and Musical Concert with Orchestra’. The second ‘Ballad and Musical Concert with Orchestra’ is also coming soon.

Junsu has scored on the soccer field as captain of the FC Men, and, as a fellow member of JYJ, is engaged in promoting the 2014 Incheon Asian Games. He has won many awards and I daresay that I have probably just touched the iceberg tip of his activity schedule. After all, let’s not forget the modeling individually or with JYJ.

Last, but not necessarily least, Junsu is starring as the lead actor in the new musical ‘December. This musical, a tribute to the late singer and songwriter Kim Kwang Seok, premieres June 16th, 2013–one day after the 28th birthday celebration of our own talented Kim Junsu. There will be a release of an album featuring Junsu’s vocals to Kim Kwang Seok’s songs on the 18th of December.

In addition, Junsu has recorded the OST song, ‘I Love You’, for the drama Empress Ki.

Beyond all these things is the inherent musical and personal ability that Xia Junsu has to draw others into the creative human process. Junsu, you are truly loved beyond what you could ever imagine. <3

[TRANS] 131129 On His Appearance In ‘December’, Kim Junsu Says, “I Have High Expectations For Myself”

junsudecemberexpectations

Singer and musical actor Kim Junsu has expressed his sentiments on appearing in the musical ‘December’.

Kim Junsu attended the open rehearsal session for ‘December: The Song That Hasn’t Ended’, which was held at the Sejong Culture Center, and said, “My character Ji Wook is quite different from the roles I’ve taken on in past musicals.”

The singer has appeared in ‘Mozart!’, ‘Tears of Heaven’ and ‘Elisabeth’ in the past and has been recognized by critics and musical-lovers alike as a talented musical actor. While his past characters have been quite dark and required heavy makeup, he will be playing the role of an average joe in ‘December’.

He will be playing the role of romancer Ji Wook, a college student who has returned to his studies after fulfilling his military duties. Ji Wook is an average guy with a bright personality who enjoys poetry, music and romance. Kim Junsu plans to put his own spin on the emotional character who meets the love of his life.

Kim Junsu said, “The characters I’ve taken on till now were quite abstract. I always had to act in environments, like the Austrian royal palace, that I had never experienced before, so it actually feels quite awkward having to express a character and story that is more realistic.” He continued to add, “I think I’ll be able to showcase an energetic performance because my character feels so real. I have high expectations for myself as I take on this new challenge.”

Meanwhile, ‘December’ starts in a boarding house in 1992 and depicts the 20-year-long love story between Ji Wook, Lee Yeon and Hoon. The musical has been garnering much attention since it was announced as it will incorporate music from the late Kim Kwang Seok. The musical will be performed at the Sejong Culture Centre from the 16th of December till the 29th of January, 2014.

[TRANS] 131126 JYJ’s Official Statement, “A Violation Of Portrait Rights That Goes Beyond News Coverage, We Will Sue”

C-JeS Entertainment has released their official statement on their lawsuit against violations of portrait rights.

JYJ’s agency C-JeS Entertainment released an official statement on the 26th that read, “C-JeS Entertainment are working hard to protect the publicity rights (right to stop third parties from using the publicity rights of celebrities without their permissions for commercial purposes) of all our celebrities, not only JYJ. We have a strong legal system to combat these illegal actions.”

Through an explanation from their legal party, C-JeS announced that they would be filing a compensation for loss lawsuit against two magazine publications, which used photos of JYJ without the members’ permission, and the trials would be closed by mid-December.

jyjtvdaily1

They continued to state, “Publishing dozens of pages of photos from news coverage articles and press conferences, as well as creating special editions with these photos, is an act that violates our celebrities’ publicity rights and this is why we have filed our lawsuit,” and “Acts like this have already been recognized as a violation of publicity rights, so we expect similar verdicts for our lawsuits.”

C-JeS clarified their stance as they added, “We are not out to ban or limit proper news coverage, and we believe that photos can definitely be used for news coverage, but only if it is done in a reasonable parameter.”

-Below is the explanatory statement by C-JeS’ legal party-

◆A compensation for loss lawsuit has been filed against two magazine publications for using photos of the three members of JYJ without their permission.

◆Many rounds of court debates have already taken place, and the verdict is set to be made in mid-December.

◆The two magazine publications in question have used photos from news articles and press conferences in dozens of pages in their magazines, as well as publishing A4-sized photos for a special edition booklet. These acts are seen to be a violation of publicity rights that goes beyond reasonable news coverage.

◆The two magazine publications in question have argued that their actions lay within the parameters of reasonable news coverage, but their use of photos in dozens of pages and A4-sized pages cannot be seen as such.

◆Regarding the use of celebrity photos, acts like this have already been recognized as a violation of publicity rights both domestically and overseas (US, Japan etc), so we expect similar verdicts for our lawsuits.

◆However, we are not out to ban or limit proper news coverage, and we believe that photos can definitely be used for news coverage, but only if it is done in a reasonable parameter.

junsudecembertickets

With the first round of ticket reservations already breaking the record for the most tickets sold in the shortest amount of time in the industry, the second round of ticket reservations is expected to be met with an explosive response from fans.

The first round of ticket reservations had the musical topping Interpark’s reservations rankings easily as it broke the record for the largest number of tickets sold in the shortest amount of time. Befitting the size of the large-scale musical with a production cost of 5 billion Won, tickets for a total of 70,000 seats were released simultaneously with news that another round of reservations would be taking place soon.

The musical’s production company NEW has decided to open another round of reservations after being flooded with requests from musical-lovers who were unable to grab good seats for the show.

The second round will release tickets for 10,000 more seats, including the first two rows for the B, C and D areas, and is expected to be met with an explosive response from those who were unable to get good seats during the first round of ticket reservations. The additional tickets will be available on Interpark.

Meanwhile, with approximately four weeks left to go till ‘December’ opens its curtains, the musical has already been chosen as the most-anticipated musical of the second half of 2013 as a jukebox musical that features songs, compositions and unreleased songs from the late Kim Kwang Seok. It will open its curtains at the Sejong Culture Centre on the 16th of December.
