[TRANS] 121218 JYJ’s Jaejoong, To Release His First Solo Album Next January…Details Are “Top Secret”

JYJ’s Jaejoong will be releasing his first solo album since debut.

C-Jes Entertainment stated on 18 Dec, “Jaejoong will release a very special solo mini-album next January.”

C-Jes representatives also revealed, “Kim Bada, the 5th generation vocalist for the “rock legend” Sinawe, personally participated in the production of the album this time. The album will contain various genres of rock music. Jaejoong’s husky and tough high notes which could not be seen during JYJ’s activities, as well as his various charms, will be showcased through this album.”

Jaejoong’s talent as a rock vocalist has been recognised till now through his solo stages like “그것만이 내 세상 (That’s Only My World)” and “너를 위해(For You)” during concerts including their Japan Dome concerts. In particular, the anticipation for the album this time is heightened as Kim Bada, who was acknowledged as one of the top rock vocalists through “I Am A Singer”, will be participating in the production this time.

Kim Bada stated, “Jaejoong has the good qualities required of a rock vocalist. Also, because he is very serious about music, my love for him became stronger after working with him. One of Jaejoong’s charms is his unique way of singing, which is a little sexy and glamorous at the same time. I think that he will be able to present outstanding rock numbers no matter how they are produced.”

He also went on to say, “The thing about rock music is that it requires that you infuse the stories that are buried deep inside your heart into music. Jaejoong’s sense when it comes to writing lyrics is not lacking at all. I think that he will be recognised as an artiste rather than an idol from now on.”

Till now, Jaejoong’s self-composed and self-written songs have been released in JYJ’s as well as Junsu’s albums. Having proven his abilities as a singer-songwriter, Jaejoong will also be writing the lyrics for all the songs in the album this time, further proving his competence.

C-Jes Entertainment said, “The specific contents of the album are top secret. It is planned for the album’s jacket teasers and album teasers to be released in succession beginning next week. It is also being prepared for the music video to be revealed together with the release of the audio. This special album, which will include OST tracks from the movie “Here Comes Jackal”, will be a surprise gift for the fans this winter.”

NEWS] The Veil Is Pushed Back To Reveal Kim Junsu’s End-Of-The-Year Concert

The guest appearances for Kim Junsu’s end-of-the-year concert ’2012 XIA Balland&Musical Concert with Orchestra’ have been confirmed.

C-JeS Entertainment stated, “The guest appearances and staff have been confirmed. Composer Choi Joo Young will create a warm musical&ballad concert and musical actress Kim Sun Young will stand on stage for the ‘Elisabeth’ songs. Also, child actor Tang Jun Sang from ‘Mozart!’ will also appear as the child version of Mozart.

This upcoming concert will be the first solo ballad concert held by an idol singer and will feature songs from musicals, ballads from the singer’s album, OST collaborations and some of Kim Junsu’s personal favorites. He plans to stand on stage for 120 minutes with an orchestra and perform all his songs live.

A representative stated, “A high-quality concert is being crafted. I dare say that such a concert has never been done before in Korea. Kim Junsu will take you on a journey through the various dramas and musicals he has participated in with his musical numbers and OSTs, and will create romantic memories to last with his heart-wrenching yet warm ballads.”

Musical actress Kim Sun Young worked alongside Kim Junsu in ‘Elisabeth’ and has proved herself to be one of Korea’s best musical actresses in productions such as ‘Miss Saigon’ and ‘Jekyll and Hyde’.

(Junsu, 10:54pm KST) We had our first rehearsal with the orchestra, and chorus.. As expected, music has to be performed live to be at its best..^^ Most of all.. the four pop chorus members and the four vocal chorus members.. it’s great to hear the eight voices blend to make a profound harmony. The sound is filled by the vocal members, the rhythm is carried by the pop members.. they complete each other http://pic.twitter.com/bzbWWTab

[TRANS] 121216 Second Place Becomes First Place? The Validity Of The ’2012 Melon Music Awards’ Is Questioned

[TRANS] 121216 Second Place Becomes First Place? The Validity Of The ’2012 Melon Music Awards’ Is Questioned

The ‘Netizen Popularity Award’ recipients were not chosen by the netizens, 140,000 is greater than 180,000?

The validity of the ’2012 Melon Music Awards’, which was held on the 14th at the Seoul Olympic Park Gymnasium, is now being questioned.

The focal point of the controversy is the ‘Netizen Popularity Award’. The award was given to the group that received the second highest number of votes, rather than the singer who won the most votes from netizens.

In the voting procedure that took place between the 29th of November till the 13th of December, Kim Junsu topped the polls for his ‘Nice Guy’ OST ‘Love is Like a Snowflake’ with 185,519 votes (42%). But the award was given to B2ST’s ‘Midnight’, which gained 147,310 votes (33%).

Different from other awards that take on music chart rankings and netizen votes at a ratio of 7:3, the ‘Netizen Popularity Award’ was set to have 60% of the judgment process reflect the netizens’ votes.

One representative of the industry who asked for anonymity stated, “It seems that this goes along the same lines as how JYJ are being restricted from appearing on broadcasted or music-related events due to their conflict with their former agency.”

JYJ recently ended their three-year-long legal dispute with SM Entertainment. However, JYJ’s current entertainment agency C-JeS stated, “The restrictions placed on JYJ are not because of their legal dispute. This is why we believe there won’t be much change, even after the legal dispute has ended.”

Also, it was revealed that Kim Junsu knew about the awards ceremony and the result of the polls.

On the night of the awards ceremony, Kim Junsu tweeted, “Though I wasn’t able to stand on stage at the awards ceremony.. Thank you for the love you have shown me.. I’ll repay it even more with my future activities~ I’m always so grateful to you.. Really.. A lot.”

Meanwhile, representatives of the awards ceremony stated beforehand that, “The focal point of this awards ceremony is fairness, public appeal and professionalism,” and “The judging process, based solely on online music chart rankings and netizen votes, will ensure that winners are chosen fairly.”
