JYJ Kim Junsu: Solo Album Released Under ā€œRestrictionsā€ Circumstances

His first album was seen as a protest against JYJ’s restriction. To this, Kim Junsu felt disheartened.

When JYJ, who used to be a part of TVXQ, was resolving their contract with SM Entertainment, their company filed for their restriction from appearing on any music programmes or performances. The court later on ruled against the filing, however it was said that due to SM Entertainment’s strong influence, Korean broadcasting companies had to ā€œshow some respect and gave inā€. Though the filing for restriction was ruled as invalid, JYJ is still under restriction circumstances.

It has been 8 years since Kim Junsu debuted and when he released his solo album ā€œTarantallegraā€, he continued to be absent from all music programmes, causing rumours of the ā€œrestrictionsā€ once again.

Ā 

He helplessly said, ā€œIt was not easy during the production. Especially under the circumstances knowing that I was not able to promote it on television programmes. Therefore I emphasized more on the vocal quality and MV filming. But what troubled me was that, the album was seen as me using my own energy to protest against certain issues.ā€

Though he was unable to escape from the rumours, his album was a big sell-out. His Asia tour tickets were selling fast and almost every stop was sold out. The 17000 tickets in Seoul was in fact sold out in 15 minutes.

JYJ Park Yoochun envied Kim Junsu’s solo album and expressed, ā€œLooking at Junsu’s album, it’s as though my wish was fulfilled. I am proud of him and no one else can do it better than him. Therefore I want to thank him for making JYJ shine so brightly.ā€

NEWS] JYJ’s Junsu to HoldĀ A World Tour and Release a RepackagedĀ Album!

Ā On July 16th, representatives fromĀ C-Jes EntertainmentĀ announced, ā€œ[JYJ‘s]Ā Junsu, who is currently traveling on his Asia Tour, will also be holding a world tour in North America, South America, and Europe.ā€

After having released his first solo album and sweeping music charts across the continent of Asia, Junsu appears to be ready to meet his global audience. And not surprisingly so, since despite this being Junsu’s first time embarking on solo album activities, he has achieved great sales numbers even on charts abroad with his unique concept and 12 stylistically diverse songs.

CEO of C-JeS EntertainmentĀ Baek Chang JooĀ further expanded on Junsu’s success, saying, ā€œEver since Junsu’s first public performance, his solo album has not only captivated the country, but also a wide area of Asia as well; as we were, of course, targeting markets overseas, it seems we have produced a world class music video. The awaited results were extraordinary. During Junsu’s successful Asia tour, the number of love calls we received from areas such as North and South America would not stop flowing in, and thus we decided to launch a world tour.ā€

The CEO continued to reveal, ā€œFor this world tour, Junsu has put together and prepared a repackaged album. As this album will be targeting the world market, it will include an English single and a music video produced in America. Although we cannot further clarify our future plans, Junsu will be climbing the steps to fame in America.ā€

One of these American parties interested in JYJ’s Junsu commented, ā€œThere is great interest [and anticipation] for JYJ’s Junsu’s world tour success throughout America. The title song,ā€œTARANTALLEGRAā€, not only attempted to draw in interest via the K-Pop Wave, it created its own, unique sensation; the music video has gathered high marks from parties throughout America as well. It seems that, after promoting as a soloist and single-handedly holding a world tour, Junsu has demonstrated the global interest [he has gathered].ā€

It has been decided that Junsu’s upcoming world tour will include stops in 2-3 cities per continent.Ā Currently, Junsu is still on his Asia tour, which started in Seoul, and is continuing throughout countries such as Thailand, Indonesia, Taiwan, and China. Next month, Junsu will be holding his final concert in Hong Kong.
