[TRANS] 111026 JYJ’s Fans Publish A Newspaper Advertisement “Calling For Broadcasted Appearances For JYJ”

[TRANS] 111026 JYJ’s Fans Publish A Newspaper Advertisement “Calling For Broadcasted Appearances For JYJ”

JYJ’s fans have recently published a newspaper article that calls for broadcasted appearances for JYJ.

The reason the fanclub gave for publishing the advertisement was, “JYJ are currently excluded from appearing on variety shows and music programs of most broadcasting companies. The power behind the unjust reason for their exclusion is mighty.

Since leaving SM Entertainment, JYJ have been locked in a lawsuit with SM. Broadcasting companies have been using this as the reason why JYJ have been denied appearances on broadcasted programs, but JYJ’s side is claiming that these companies are excluding JYJ because of SM’s influence.

JYJ have been unable to appear on a single music program of any of the nation’s cable companies, let alone of the three major broadcasting companies.

JYJ are currently in a ‘confirmation of exclusive contract’s invalidity’ lawsuit with SM Entertainment on the grounds of a ‘unjust contract’. The Courts laid down a verdict in both October, 2009 and February 2011 that stated that SM had to ensure that they would not interfere with JYJ’s independent activities in the entertainment industry till the overall verdict was made on the lawsuit.

FanAccount 111021 YooSu — In Heaven FanSign Event Day

[Fanaccount] 111021 Yoosu – In Heaven FanSign Event Day 1‏

Heart still thumping…
The fan sign today was arranged by giving out numbers.
Arrived earlier than expected, and though it’s not the first row, it was quite in front. Tomorrow should be arranged by numberings as well…
After getting the number ticket, I waited at the hall and unexpectedly saw Yoochun and Junsu who came in.
Although I have seen their photos before, they are really handsome. T T
Photos are only half evident of how handsome they are.
Yoochun wore a coat with swept hair and a pair of characteristic specs… hahaha
Not sure if it is my own feeling, I exchanged glances with Yoochun a few times.
When our eyes meet, Yoochun did not look away but stared intensely…
Yoochun ah…. such a great person….
I’m not good with writing, keke, I shall write down their conversations as a fan account.
(Although I recorded the audio, I don’t know what went wrong… I realized it only after I heard it, the conversations were cut into segments… The important parts, some were saved and I shall upload it some other time.)
This was written by my own memories and the spoilt audio recording.

——————

Firstly,
Upon entering, Yoochun is very lively and the duo’s feelings were great.
They smiled sweetly and greeted. keke.

JS: It’s been a long time for a fan sign event right? As it’s been too long, I’m excited yet nervous… To be able to see each other up close is really good.

YC: Junsu’s words were nothing unique (T/N: as usual i.e.), right? (fans laughed)

JS: There’s nothing new but it’s my true words!

YC: Oh… sorry… keke

(T/N: Some of the conversations might not link, as per what the fan said that her audio recording has errors.)

YC: But we saw these messages on the net. Some bought 30 copies and was not able to come. Some bought one copy and was able to come.

JS: This is luck, I guess. Keke. Just like everyone here. It’s my pleasure to have a fan sign event with everyone like this.

(fans applauded)

 

YC: Jaejoong hyung is not here today… we heard a lot of rumors (from various sources)

JS: There’s a rumor that we purposely did not let him come… It’s definitely not like this. He has something to do… Erm? Did somebody from the front just sighed? Kekeke~ It’s (T/N: JJ’s not coming) not due to something bad that happened.

YC: It was two people during the previous fan sign event too, isn’t it?

JS: No, it was (you) with Jaejoong hyung, two of you, ke ke ke, I didn’t join in due to musical involvement.

YC: It felt so good that time.

JS: Eh? Why? Because I’m not there? Keke

Both of them laughing away.

Fans: (out of a sudden) Make a call! International phone call!

YC: If you all would pay for the international roaming charges… kekeke

Fans: We’ll pay!!! We’ll pay!

Both smiled and silence….

JS: Any questions for us? Kekeke~ We did not intend to accept questions today thus if there are awkward questions, we’ll reject answering, okay? Keke.

Fan’s question 1: At the concert in Japan, when Yoochun filmed Junsu, he said, “Oh? So big!” What does it mean?

JS: (immediately) This is an awkward question, PASS!

Fan’s question 3 (T/N: yes, it was written as 3): Have Yoochun oppa finished the game?

YC: Probably everyone could not see, but my eyes are blood-shot right now. I have been playing for 38hrs… currently 60% done.

JS: When we met at the shop today, he said he played till morning. Yoochun has been a enthusiastic player of Legend of Zelda. During our Japanese activities’ days, I saw him playing this frequently. But he said he will stop for a while. keke. Said that it’s too difficult.

YC: I think that professional gamers are very powerful. I salute them.

JS: My friend is a professional gamer and to them it’s not a game but a job. Anything is never easy.

Fan’s question 4: I’m sorry to ask this from the start, but can Junsu do Angel Xiah?

JS: T T T T…. This is old trick of mine already. Let’s have Yoochun! Kekeke~ Let us see Angel Yoochun~

YC (with a face of ‘huh?): I can’t do it… I have never been an angel since high school…

JS: Then let us see Devil Yoochun! Keke~ If Yoochun do it, I will do it. Come, get ready your expression, Keke~

Yoochun with a face of “Why should I do it?” and smiled, looking at Junsu.

Fans did not back down and keep pleading. Just once more, once more.
Of course, I’m one of them as well. Kekeke~
Junsu still did the Angel Xiah pose in the end.
Yoochun looked at Junsu who was being teased by fans, and smiled.

Fan’s question 5: When will there be activity in Korea (as in concert etc.)?

YC: Korea? Hmm… it’s still unconfirmed… Although it’s still unconfirmed, but might be before the year ends. Probably… End of December or roughly there. Although it’s still in consideration but it’s not yet fixed. Plus there’s things to settle…

Fans: Larger scale! Ticket sales!

YC: Erm… if were to hold a concert and has to be large scaled… Hmm… how about (held) at the road to University for just 5 people? Kekeke~ For (accommodation of) 5 people only~ (T/N: He meant that the place is only big enough for 5 people.)

Fans: Ah!!!!!!!!!!!

Fan’s question 7: You all were so popular with South American fans, Asian fans, (and worldwide fans), what’s your plan in the future?

This fan behaved and asked in a very reporter-way. Everyone laughed….

YC: Is that laptop switched on? Kekeke (As though he is facing a reporter.)

Applauded.
Then both of them did not talk for a while… silence…

JS: Hmm… there’s a lot of plans… but not all matters are easy to handle with. There are a lot of times where things are confirmed and yet cancelled. To us, these are hope and encouragement. But when talking to everyone, we have to be cautious a bit. Just like what was said, before the end of this year, we will try our best to create a chance to meet everyone. If possible, we will release our second worldwide album next year. In the mid of it, we might have solo activities. Hm… just these. Ok? Keke.

After the questions, they began to sign.
The line up is Junsu, then Yoochun.
The two were feeling great during the fan sign.
I have been observing, if asked for it, Yoochun would shake hands with.
Time for me to go.

Upon reaching Yoochun, the atmosphere around him….
He was very gentle and considerate… but he signed very fast… Isn’t it a bit too fast? T T

YC: Your name is?

Me: Li~~

Yoochun signed…

Me: Are you happy recently?

YC: Hm?

Me: You looked very happy recently, thus I’m happy too.

Yoochun was signing without any expression initially but looked up after hearing this.

YC: Very blessed. ^^ I’ve been doing very well.

He smiled happily while saying this.
The strength of these words were stronger than any other hundred words, not kidding.
I almost fainted…
I like Yoochun… no, it’s love. Although it’s only a short time, my heart, kwang….
Please don’t smile to me like that~

My autograph was done very fast but strong.
I went back to my seat, thinking of Yoochun’s “I’m very blessed!”, felt so touched.

The fans today were very polite and well-mannered…
(Fans, you did well.)
The fan sign event’s atmosphere was very warm-hearted… he himself was warm-hearted.

Crazy fans kekeke~
Park (YC) and Kim (JS) were very calm but the fans were excited.
Applauded, teased/cheered, kekeke~ Yoochun and Junsu smiled.

Fan’s question: The two of you walked through from youth till now… was there a side where you saw and realized, hey this kid grew up! Or, he’s still the same!

Everyone like this question.
It is a heartwarming question.

JS: Erm… first, given the same circumstances, rather than saying Yoochun’s reaction changed, I would say it got better. Be it his expressions, or actions, it became more relaxed. In the past, Yoochun often smiled in TV programs but he would sometimes be gloomy off-camera. It got better recently and he smiled a lot more in private. It was really amazing and (I) was very happy.

Just when he was saying warmheartedly about Yoochun’s positive traits and changes, fans suddenly asked about his negative traits.

Fans: (Yoochun’s) Shortcomings!

JS: Mm? Yoochun’s? Nothing negative.

Fans: Oh~ Eh~ Keke~

JS: It is that way! Good looking~ Sings well~ Knows how to compose~ Good in sports too~ (his tone is filled with love and fans were “oh~” ) Ah~ there’s a shortcoming that can’t be changed! Forehead? Kekeke~

Fans burst out laughing.

JS: Forehead can’t be changed and it actually upgraded. Keke~ This should be a good thing, able to see the age lines soon. kekeke~ Haha

Time for Yoochun to answer.

YC: Firstly, I like my forehead a lot. Keke~ For Junsu’s, when being active as an artiste, various… even not being an artiste, anyone has their own way to be relaxed. If weren’t able to do that, it would be troublesome. But Junsu did that aspect very well.

Fans: Huh? (Don’t understand)

YC: (Upon facing problems) He has his own way to solve his problems… That is, he has many ways to make himself feels good… erm, although I can’t be there… but, he always asked me to go play soccer… kekeke

JS: (abruptly) I always asked him along! But he won’t come.

YC: No, if it’s only Junsu, I would definitely go but there’s other artistes as well… it’s a bit awkward.

JS: Ah~ if Yoochun would come, I would not ask other artistes along then. (he said it earnestly.)

YC: Actually… isn’t there a lot of fans in the audience?

JS: Ah~ keke~ the training matches. There are private matches as well, just come for that!

YC smiled and didn’t answer.

JS looked at YC: “See, it’s him who doesn’t wants to come. Yoochun loves to exercise, probably he has some psychological barriers… afraid that he won’t do well.

YC: I have no confidence in soccer. I prefer baseball or basketball.

JS: Then you should create a basketball team one day. He’s very good with basketball. Put me in the team as well.

YC: Erm… I…. will work hard with my current work.

Yoochun who kept avoiding till the end. Kekeke.

Fans: Oppa, can you say a line (from drama or musical)?

YC: Erm, I shall choose one from Junsu’s musical that left me a deep impression, ‘That Tiger…!’ (It was a line where Junsu pointed to the tiger and said during the last day of Tears Of Heaven.)

But how did Yoochun knew about this? Or Junsu told him?

JS: Then, let’s have one from Ripley.

YC: Sorry about that… (The fans in front shouted Penzal!!) Penzal? Upon recording, I didn’t intend to say that but the advertisement company hoped to have that line included.

JS: Don’t you find it funny? Kekeke~ So funny, kekeke~ To say it alone. Keke.

Fans: Please say it!

YC: How was it said?

Fans: Don’t feel painful~! Fool!

YC: Let me think about it first.

YC: Everyone, if there’s any rumors, remember to eat (Penzal Q) only when you feel painful!

Lastly are the words to fans.

YC: Fans gave us a lot of support and encouragement… We also have expressed our feelings for fans through words… What we can do… Honestly… Only through words “Will work hard!” or “Will work hard to do the best!”. No matter said it how many times, it feels that the people who will believe in these words are minority. The majority just listened to it. In a daily conversation… it’s just a sentence. The best repayment to fans, really, no matter if it’s individual activities or JYJ’s activities… Now we have prepared a recording studio and a training studio, stages like these, was it the best repayment to fans…. we are still working hard and hopefully everyone can support us. Thank you.
(Yoochun meant that rather than using words to express his thanks, the best repayment is through actions and the various live stages.)

Video + Translation 111024 “I Love JK” TVXQ’s Interview on TONE…

[Trans] “I Love JK” TVXQ’s Interview on TONE while they were in Beijing

credit: Get Beginning

Host: From the start, let’s introduce TVXQ and this is their latest Japanese album. This album reaches 200 thousand sales during the first week of release and attained the first place on the charts. This is the first album for Yunho and Changmin and the results through the release of this album gave the duo a confidence boost. Yes, that’s right. For this album, there are unique designs within the album packagings. I’m going to introduce to everyone in today’s programme and what are the unique designs? These are the 3 versions of the albums that were not released in Taiwan. Red, Blue and Yellow. When we placed the three together, we’ll get something amazing. What’s that? See, right here. What is written there? “It Is My Way.” It can only be seen when you piled them together. It’s quite a special design. There’s a card inside the album too which I’ll introduce to you all later. Let’s now take a look when they arrived in Beijing and though their stay was not that long, we managed to arrange an interview from them. We really did our best to get this interview and though the (interview) was short, please support us and now let’s take a look at the interview.

TVXQ: Hello, we are TVXQ (in Chinese)

YH: Hi, I’m Yunho. (in Chinese)

CM: Hi, I’m Changmin. (in Chinese)

About new album

YH:First of all, we released an album in Korea after a long while. Therefore we had a chance to meet with Japanese fans. This album was prepared with great work and we anticipate fans’ responses. We involved a lot of our feelings in this album and were done with a heart of thankfulness. Thus we hoped that fans will be able to hear our improvement while listening to this album.

Japanese album released in Taiwan

CM:For this album.. This album is named TONE. There are various meaning to it, eg. sound, color etc. When we first heard of this title and knew of the various meaning when used differently. As an singer, if we are able to control the various tone, it should be the best joy, isn’t it? To name this album as TONE, and in this album, other than the ballads and dance numbers we are used to, we tried something that’s similar to a fast tempo band-type and club music etc. As we tried various music genres, it is an album that’s worth everyone’s attention.

About the good sales results of the Japanese album

YH: Firstly, we want to thank everyone and other than loving TVXQ, we enjoy our work and would like to close up the distance between our fans and us. Hopefully everyone will listen to our songs and we will become an even more hardworking TVXQ.

About TONE’s train

CM: When we heard about this, we felt that it’s very novel. When I saw the photos on the net, I really wish to go there and take a commemorative photo myself. However due to some problems and time issue, I wasn’t able to do it. If I had the chance, I would like to take a ride on that train.

Any plans for performances in Taiwan?

YH: To be honest, there’s no confirmed plan as of now. But next year, there’s a plan for Asia Tour and it’s still under discussion. We’ll let Taiwanese fans know if it’s confirmed. Maybe in the near future, the good news will arrive.

TVXQ: You are currently watching, I Love JK. (in chinese)

Host: This interview was done in Beijing recently where TVXQ went for a fan meeting and we managed to get an interview for everyone. Hopefully everyone enjoyed it. Let’s continue to introduce the album. There’s a card inside each album and let’s see what we’ve got. It’s about the size of the album and this is Yunho and Changmin’s. Next, this is also a duo photo. Next we had Changmin’s solo photo, Changmin’s again, then Yunho’s, Yunho’s and duo photo. This is their card in the album and now let’s introduce a song from this album, B.U.T.

Translation 111020 KBS’ Change of Words That Tricked JYJ (Lee Seung Rok’s Compass

Another week has gone by with JYJ’s appearance on KBS 2TV’s ‘Music Bank’ falling through.

According to the Korea Communications Commission, KBS has stated that they have kept their former stance regarding JYJ’s appearance on ‘Music Bank’ that, “Appearing on broadcasted programs may affect the outcome of celebrities’ lawsuits, and we will continue to review the possibility of JYJ’s appearance on the show as we keep an eye on the situation,” and also stated, “We have not changed our stance that as the group is currently involved in many lawsuits regarding the results of their injunction, the validity of their exclusive contract and compensation, we will continue to postpone their appearance and keep an eye on the situation till the final verdict is made, regardless of the outcome of their injunction lawsuit.

They then added, “Though the situation keeps changing with the content of their injunction and release of their album, there is still a lawsuit going on between SM and JYJ, and as the courts have not made their verdict on the issue, the staff of ‘Music Bank’ have not changed their stance on the issue.”

But in May of this year, KBS released an official statement that is slightly different from the one they produced recently. At the time, KBS stated, “According to the staff’s criteria that an appearance is decided upon only after the release of an album, JYJ are not qualified to appear on ‘Music Bank’ as they have not released an album since the courts made a verdict on the 17th of February,” and “The selection of appearances lies solely in the staff’s decision and they will further discuss the possibility of JYJ appearing on the show after JYJ have released an album.”

As JYJ have been unable to appear on a single music program since they split from TVXQ, JYJ and their fans found hope in the official statement of ‘Music Bank’. And when JYJ released their first Korean album ‘In Heaven’ in September, many focused their attention on whether JYJ would be able to appear on ‘Music Bank’ or not.

It’s been over a month since the audio files of ‘In Heaven’ were released and not only have JYJ not received a single invitation to appear on a music program, but even ‘Music Bank’, on whom many had placed their hopes, completely changed their stance and have become the target of JYJ and their fans’ disappointment. With KBS’ ridiculous change of heart coming to light, it makes one wonder if they ever even considered allowing JYJ to appear on ‘Music Bank’ in the first place.

What’s most difficult to comprehend is the fact that JYJ’s name can’t even be found on the show’s ‘K-Chart’, which focuses more on objectivity than most other music programs as it takes into consideration digital audio file downloads, album sales, number of times a song is broadcasted and public preference.

Even if JYJ were unable to appear on the show like KBS stated, they should at least be included in the ‘K-Chart’ and be able to compete with other singers. Allowing a singer to appear on a show and having that singer’s music included in music charts are two completely different issues. If KBS did not allow JYJ to appear on ‘Music Bank’, even if they were to grab the number one spot on the ‘K-Chart’, this wouldn’t clash with KBS’ current stance. The fact that the group isn’t even considered on the charts is only deepening their fans’ suspicions.

Regarding KBS’ official statement, JYJ’s agency C-JeS Entertainment stated, “KBS must show proof that they are making the decision on JYJ’s appearance with the same criteria that they are using for all celebrities who are currently appearing on their programs,” and “If KBS respects the verdict made by the courts, we believe it is only right for KBS to take full responsibility in ensuring that they stay fair and execute the courts’ verdict that guarantees JYJ unrestrained independent activities.”

KBS and JYJ’s disputes continue to pile up with KBS’s surprise cancellation of JYJ’s performance in the ‘Jeju 7 Natural Wonders of the World Special’ and KBS’ unjust review of ‘Pierrot’. But a large portion of the public refuses to accept the current situation of JYJ being unable to appear on music programs. JYJ’s Kim Junsu, Kim Jaejoong and Park Yoochun, who are unable to appear on ‘Music Bank’ due to their lawsuit with SM, is currently hitting it big through dramas and musicals. It’s quite ironic, really.

[TRANS] The Surprising Similarities Between JYJ, Kim Eo Joon And Infinite Challenge

[TRANS] The Surprising Similarities Between JYJ, Kim Eo Joon And Infinite Challenge

Similarity 1. They are all experiencing unfair events that are quite strange and hard to understand.

JYJ’s album topped Gaon’s album sales charts for September and it is said that till now, they’ve sold over 350,000 copies. This is most probably the highest album sales record of all the album that have been released in Korea this year. They even topped the online music charts as soon as the tracks from the album were released online. The dramas they appeared in, which are SungKyunKwan Scandal, Miss Ripley and Protect the Boss, have all been extremely popular and the members themselves have been praised for their acting skills.

But JYJ are currently unable to appear on music programs as singers. Though they top album charts, though they are popular and though they are the forerunners of the Hallyu Wave, they are unable to appear on music programs. They are unable to, even though they want to. It’s quite a strange and unfair thing for them. What’s even stranger is that though they sell so many albums and though they top online music charts, their names can never be found on any of the ranking charts of the three major broadcasting companies’ music programs.

There’s a rumor flying around that Infinite Challenge may once more have disciplinary action taken against it by the Korea Communications Standards Commission. The reason is because of the recent car explosions and PD Journal reported that it was because the scene was aired without an advance warning. No one knows what will happen but as Infinite Challenge isn’t the first production to have car explosions included in its broadcasted footage, it’s quite strange to suddenly have them pushed into the spotlight for it.

Kim Eo Joon’s Unconventional Advice has had quite high ratings amongst the MBC radio programs and has been ranked high as a Podcast. But suddenly, the news has been delivered that the show has been scrapped. The program’s only been around for six months and has been steadily gaining much popularity over this period of time, so it’s hard to believe that this show is suddenly getting the axe. Now that we look back, we can see that Yoon Do Hyun’s Two O’clock Date, which featured Kim Eo Joon, has also disappeared. It couldn’t be that the show is being scrapped just because of Kim Eo Joon but it’s quite a strange incident indeed.

Similarity 2. They are all fighting with something big.

JYJ fought and are still fighting SM, a major entertainment agency.They filed a lawsuit against their unjust contract and the Courts accepted their injunction request. Their opponent SM is undisputedly the largest entertainment agency in Korea. But that is not to say that SM is linked to what has happened to JYJ till now. We are merely trying to get across the fact that JYJ are currently up against the nation’s top entertainment agency.

Infinite Challenge is fighting against social irregularities. They fought for the Dokdo issue, and they take on the role of letting the world know of those who are suffering in areas that aren’t that well-known. But they don’t show these outright and instead opt to show allusions here or here amidst the fun and laughter they provide. It’s a very classy way of social criticism and a very sophisticated method of social participation. But as always, Evil is strong and powerful. It can’t be denied that the bad points, problems and irregularities of society are too strong of an opponent.

Kim Eo Joon is fighting with vested interests. He often uses swearwords to give a piercing admonition against it. Kim Eo Joon is the person who is willing to boldly take on issues that others were too afraid to even mention. With no vested interest in anything, he has placed himself within his own kingdom that he himself built and has been fighting off the pressure from vested interests that continue to attack him. He had to give up his own vested rights to fight against a strong opponent.

Similarity 3. They are all staying afloat thanks to their strong fandoms.

One of the major reasons why JYJ have been doing well despite the fact that they haven’t been able to appear on music programs is because of their fans. These fans support their stars, though they are unable to see JYJ on TV, and are waiting by JYJ’s side for the day that these strange events disappear for good.

The fanatics of Infinite Challenge have been strongly demanding that Infinite Challenge be left alone. Many fans, with the thought that Infinite Challenge should be protected, have come together with the show as their center. It seems that they are willing to even collect money from their own pockets if it means that the show can keep going. They have interpreted the messages given to them by Infinite Challenge and are working alongside the show in harmony.

Kim Eo Joon’s fans are giving him their full support. They know that he will continue living life in his own way and he in return is giving them the encouragement, ‘Don’t back down!’. This could also be something that he’s saying to himself. Though he knows that there are many fans who have his back, he cares deeply for his fans as though he is all alone. And though his fans complain and act indifferent, they are willing to step up and defend him if needed.

Conclusion

There are countless people in the world who share similarities. It’s not an amazing thing. It may be that the three similarities these three groups share aren’t that amazing after all. But considering the fact that we feel pity at the first similarity that they are faced with unjust events, pride at the second similarity that they are fighting a strenuous battle against very powerful vested rights, and electrifying fear at the third similarity that without the strong foundation of a fandom to support them, they could have disappeared without a trace, one could also feel that these similarities are truly something special. It could just be a feeling.

There has always been the saying that if coincidences keep occurring, then it’s not an accident, it’s fate. But what stands out more than this statement is the saying that, ‘If coincidences keep occurring, then it was planned from the start’ because this feels closer to the reality that we live in. Whatever the case, we pray that these three teams no longer have to suffer from strange events that are unacceptable.
