[TRANS] 150108 Korepo Report: JYJ Decorates the Finale of [Ichigo Ichie] Japan Dome Tour with Deeply Moved Tears!

jyjjapandome

(T/N: a long report on finale of JYJ Japan Dome Tour. I thought it would give everyone a good picture of the whole dome performance set-up and what each member said roughly. Hope you enjoy reading!)

Korea’s top artists JYJ held their Japan Dome Tour [2014 Japan Dome Tour ~ Ichigo Ichie ~] at Fukuoka Yahoo Auction Dome on 24th December (Wed).
The tour which started on 18th November in Tokyo Dome proceeded to Osaka, and then on 23rd and 24th for 2 days, JYJ decorated their dome tour finale with their first Fukuoka concerts with roaring success.

On 24th Christmas eve, while fans eagerly waited in their Christmas cos-play (T/N: costumer play, meaning wearing a costume to become someone/something else) holding JYJ goods, the dome went into darkness.
Penlights the fans were holding shone red all at once, covering one side of the dome with red waves.
When the screen showed clips of Junsu, Yuchun, Jaejoong one-by-one, voices of the audience flew about shouting out the members’ names.
When dancers in black costumes sure to heighten the excitment of the dome came out to show-off their acrobatic dance moves, the screen close up on [JYJ] logo.
When Jaejoong, Yuchun and Junsu appeared on the top stage dressed in black/gold glittering costumes, the place went into a storm of happiness.

When they sang the opening number “Empty” on top of a firery stage, their powerful dance and voices raised the voltage of the place at once but yet during their ballad number “Ayy Girl (R&B ver)” the place was wrapped up in their sweet voices, capturing fans’ hearts very early into the concert.
The place was in an uproar reaching the highest climax with their even more passionate performances since its the tour finale.

After receiving fanatic responses, the opening stage ended and MC time starts.
After Jaejoong’s “welcome to JYJ Dome Tour in Fukuoka!” and Junsu’s call “Good evening everyone~! I’m Junsu of JYJ. 2014 Asia Tour ends today. For this, I will put in all my energy from the start till the end, going with my all strength so everyone! Let’s enjoy till the end!”, the place shook with roars of cheers.
Fans were nodding in agreement when these words were spoken “good evening this is Jaejoong. Its the last one today right. Although we just started, it feels lonely right (as the final performance)”.
When he said “and Merry Christmas everyone!”, the audience responded with loud cheers of “Merry Christmas” back.
Jaejoong further continued with “since its Christmas today, let’s enjoy with a special performance we prepared only for today. Thank you” and raised expectations towards the performance while passing the baton to Yuchun.
“I’m Yuchun of JYJ!” he greeted and gave out a huge sigh with “today is the last of this tour right. Haaaaaa~” and continued “dome tour, I want to do it one more time you know”. At these words, the dome was filled with voices responding in a split second “we want!!”
“But….. JYJ will also try hard so please give us your support till the end!” said Yuchun.
After “until the end, ready to enjoy, OK~!” shouted by Yuchun in his usual style, the second stage started!
“And so please listen to this” said Jaejoong, introducing the number “Let Me See”.
After feeling intoxicated with that gem of a harmony created with these 3 beautiful voices, everyone in the dome was then intoxicated with “In Heaven”, the masterpiece ballad that stimulates all our 5 senses.

The fans, applauding loudly with all their emotions after each song, complimented the 3 members’ performances towards making this the best LIVE.
A clip was shown on screen to look back at their activities as JYJ and as individuals, and when the words [now is the time to show a new look ~…..] appeared, it was time for the special solo performances.
Jaejoong appeared in chic black-base clothes sitting on a chair and sang emotionally to Nakajima Miyuki’s [Keshou], while Junsu also sang Nakajima Miyuki’s [Kimi to Sora no Aida]. Yuchun then followed with Fukuyama Masaharu’s [Sai Ai].
While they delivered these emotional ballads which fit their individual image exactly, everyone was so touched that some fans who even shed tears.
Then the atmosphere took a complete change, and Jaejoong appeared wearing a leather jacket with frills showing off a look mixed with sexiness and charisma singing passionately to [Butterfly].
This was a rock number elegant and bewitching like a butterfly, and the audience was sucked into a vortex of passion.  “Everyone, are you ready to go crazy?” shouted Jaejoong and everyone responded with “Yeah~!”
And to further words of “Go crazy? You sure?”, fans shouted even louder “Yeah~!”
“Coz today is the finale. We have enjoyed those concerts we did until now too but today everyone please force yourselves a little…. like this [I am normally like this but because its the finale I’ll put in more for you] (laugh). Like more crazy then usual….. To the level that will shock even the friend you came with today….. I want you to enjoy today with that kind of tension!” said Jaejoong encouraging the fans and finally “next song, you know what it is right?”
“First floor, second floor Ultra Soul!” (Jaejoong) “Hey!” (fans) “now everybody! Ultra Soul!” (Jaejoong) “Hey!” (fans), the call & response continued like this.
With cheers that filled-up the entire place, “I’m going to ride this tide!” said Jaejoong and went on to do [Ultra Soul] by B’z.
Fans who got excited during the MC where Jaejoong captured their hearts, then screamed his name “Jaejoonggggggg~!” loudly and shook the floor together with Jaejoong.

Next up was Yuchun wearing a greyish jacket.
When he sang the R&B-flavor number [I Love You] with his charismatic high tone and heavy low notes voice, the dome reacted with unbreaking applauses and cheers that sounded like howling. (T/N: can’t help it just want to comment here that this use of “howling” by the reporter was just hilarious and so apt!)
While reciprocating to screams of female fans, he also expressed his appreciation to the many male fans’ cheers when they said “Yuchun-san, I love  you” (T/N: very difficult to translate DAISUKI coz it can mean LOVE it can mean like a lot etc. but I’ll go with LOVE coz I believe its closer), prompting him to joke “that’s a little (laugh)” (T/N: meaning he CAN’T reciprocate lol) and making everyone laughed.
As today is the tour’s final day, Yuchun said with regret “now, I want time to stop. I mean, I think members may do individual LIVE but as JYJ probably 3 years, 4 years later….” and the audience went “eeeeehhhh~!” in shocked.
As if to make it sound better to himself too, Yuchun explained “I mean, we are going for military service right”
After pausing for a breath, he continued “but please wait for us JYJ” and everyone responded back “we’ll wait~!!!”
Changing the topic, “its kind of exciting ’cause it’s Christmas right? I was excited with Junsu yesterday (laugh) when Junsu said at the side of the stage [what do I do? This really makes me uncomfortable you know]. But sorry Junsu (laugh), I personally want to give fans a Christmas present….. I want our performance today to be a present from us” said Yuchun and went on to perform [30] and after that whispered “everyone, I love you” to huge cheers from fans.

Last from the solo section was Junsu wearing pure-white long coat.
Strong yet beautiful voice singing “because you are not alone, because I will protect you ~” to fans like he is talking to them with AI’s [STORY], and was drown with applause.
“It’s been a while so my Japanese may not convey my meaning 100% but it’s great to be able to communicate in Japanese right? All of you are so kind. Even when I used ridiculous Japanese you will understand me and I feel thankful every time” expressing his gratefulness.
“And so its the same today, are you ready?” he shouted and there were cheers heard from male fans.
In response to those cheers, he said “can I hear the guys’ voices today? One – two!” and the male fans cheered “Junsuuuuuuu~!!”
Furthermore, “and from now!” said Junsu, “Junsu Time!” shouted fans as per usual, and an intensive performance started.
To the strong electron sound, Junsu performed [Incredible] with the dancers and overwhelmed the audience with a perfectly-executed dance performance and his predominant singing skill.

The stage started again with 3 of them singing [So So].
As its Christmas eve today and finale of dome tour, Junsu, Jaejoong and Yuchun appeared on the top stage cos-play as snowman, Santa Claus and Tree!
Fans went wild with excitement at how cute the 3 of them looked.
The simple performance, born from 3 of them wanting to make fans happy, brought delight to the audience.

jyjjapandomecostumes

While singing Yuchun’s hit-drama [Sungkyunkwang Scandal] theme song [Chajatta], they moved towards the sub-stage.

They were moving slowly towards audience at the back.
When the 3 of them were approaching slowly on the moving stage, everyone was overjoyed!
Junsu said “after debuting 10 years, this is a first cos-play for me (laugh)”. “Yes, for Junsu and me (laugh). But Jaejoong is sexy right” quipped Yuchun.
“We are almost turning 30 and frankly this is too embarrassing” Jaejoong said shyly while Junsu quipped “at first there was talk about dressing-up as girls but on a moving stage you can see…..(T/N: erhm, I supposed you can imagine them wearing SKIRTS and hence….) so we gave up on that” bringing continuous laughters from everyone.
In addition, Jaejoong started doing “adult” talk and the place went into an uproar.
In the midst of singing SMAP’s popular song [Lion Heart] and [Be My Girl], 3 of them went on separate trams and gifted audience with color balls that included their signatures, toys, and even the costumes they wore, making one round of the dome to the delights of fans.

JYJ appeared again after changing into dark blue outfits and sang the title track [BACK SEAT] in their new album [JUST US], followed by [Be the One] and [Valentine], and finally there remains only 1 song.
“It’s time to introduce our final song but….. Time passes so fast right. Its amazing how fast time passed from Yuchun’s [are you ready!] just now. I don’t want to do the next song. I mean, today is the last time”.
In addition, “when the new single release has been confirmed, we shouted BANZAI! (T/N: we did it) It’s the same happiness we feel when we first took No 1 on the weekly chart after debut in Japan. So this moment should not be a lonely time for us but a waiting moment for new happiness I think. Because today is Christmas eve, I want to part with you all while smiling”, and further “let us introduce the new song to be release on 21 January” before performing [Wake Me Tonight].

After singing [Get Out] during encore, Junsu said “with the next song our [2014 JYJ Japan Dome Tour] ends. When we started off in China, I was also doing musical then and frankly it was tough but today I really feel lonely. Until now even when we couldn’t appear on TV or in the midst of various bad situations, we could overcome everything and be here now because of you all. I feel that I can prepare for my next step with your support and love. I will continue to do my best”. Jaejoong sighed with deep emotion ” after becoming the name JYJ there will be no next, we don’t know what will happen next. Everyday we feared what’s to come tomorrow. Everytime we performed in Japan we always say [we can meet again] but we don’t know when that will be and spent our time while watching over that period of “uncertain future”. But this concert I felt the trust with you and the really deep love that is like an assurance that we can certainly keep doing this. Although we talk about going into military service soon, I am coming to Yokohama in January (laugh). We won’t be meeting for 2 years but 2 years is short so just wait for us for a while alright”.
Yuchun also said “yesterday I was listenig to some good old songs with Jaejoong in the car after a long while. I want to make beautiful memories too from now. This beautiful memories cannot be made without all of you and without Jaejoong and Junsu….. Let’s make beautiful memories with JYJ and all of you from now. Thank you today” warm words from his heart.

To Jaejoong who said he didn’t want to do the next song, Yuchun proposed “then let’s do A Cappella” and the entire dome echoed with a huge roar of roof-penetrating loud cheers.
Everyone was super-excited when their A Capalle harmonized beautifully.
They sang [NINE] written by Jaejoong.

[BEGIN] was sang durng double=encore.
3 of them were filled with deep emotions and couldn’t control their crying.
Fans there were also crying, and finally they took a picture with fans behind them and promised to come back again, ending Japan Dome Tour’s finale with tears and emotions.
This Japan Dome Tour mobilized 240,000 people starting from November, performing at Tokyo, Osaka and Fukuoka.
After proving their continuous-poplularity, JYJ will release their first Japan single [Wake Me Tonight] on 21 January.

Ticket Lottery in Japan and how it works

1. Official fanclub members usually have the priority to apply for tickets ahead of the publlic sale.
2. The ticketing will be done via lottery, which means you can either get the tickets or not. The seats are also pre-assigned and the ticket price remains the same wherever you are seated.
3. After the lottery results are announced, you are usually given a time frame to pay for your tickets. Unpaid tickets will be included in the public sale.
4. There will also be a public sale to give non-fanclub members a chance to grab tickets. You can usually buy them through convenience stores.
5. You can only know your exact seat when you go to the venue to exchange your ticket at the entrance.

[NEWS] JYJ Gearing Up for Japan Dome Tour Beginning in November, Preparing Japanese Single Album Release

It has been announced that JYJ is currently making preparations to kick off their comeback in Japan with a brand new concert tour.

On October 17, C-JeS Entertainment shared, “This coming November and December, JYJ will be greeting their fans in Japan with the 2014 ‘JYJ Japan Dome Tour – Ichigo Ichie,’ which will open in Tokyo, Osaka, and other major cities. They are also preparing the release of a new Japanese single album.”

Through this ‘Ichigo Ichie’—or “once-in-a-lifetime meeting”—tour, the members are planning to carry out live stages with impressive performances, as well as show off their more mature and improved abilities and individual charms as artists.

This announcement is gaining even more interest especially because of the news that JYJ is gearing up to release their very first Japanese single album.

Following the 2010 ‘Thanksgiving Live in Dome’ and the 2013 ‘The Return of The JYJ’ dome concerts, this upcoming tour will be the group’s third time. This particular tour is meaningful to the members, as it will mark their official comeback in Japan, making it known that they will begin active promotions in the country.

The C-JeS Entertainment rep also revealed that fans in Japan continuously requested a dome tour as soon as the news of JYJ’s Asia tour was announced.

Meanwhile, JYJ is earning much attention from Japanese fans and local media ever since the reports of the tour and single album, and the members are busy getting ready to kick off another dome tour.

[Trans] 1140925 JYJ Asia Tour Concert in Thailand Press Conference Interview

jyjthaipressconf

The press conference took place at the Central World on 24 Sept 2014

Q: Please greet the fans and the media.
JYJ: Hello we are JYJ

Q: The 3 of you haven’t visited Thailand for 3 years. How do you feel visiting us this time?
JJ: I’m very glad to get a chance to meet the fans again because we haven’t been here for 3 years, and I’m glad there are many fans waiting for us until now. I’d like to thank the sponsors for inviting us to have this concert.
YC: I’d like to tell the fans I’m very touched. Although we haven’t visited here for 3 years but there are still many fans welcoming us. Thank you so much.
JS: I’d like to thank our fans again and we are having the final 2014 concert here in Thailand which means a lot to us, it’s a good opportunity for us to meet our fans this year.

jyjthaipressconf1

Q: 2014 JYJ ASIA TOUR CONCERT IN THAILAND “THE RETURN OF THE KING” is considered the great comeback, what will the fans see in JYJ – The King?
YC: The concert will take place tomorrow with the theme “THE RETURN OF THE KING”, and it has a good meaning. We have also prepared cool shows for the fans so we don’t want any fans to miss the concert tomorrow.

Q: JYJ latest album “Just Us” reached the no. 1 all kill spot on every chart right after the album was released and it was also nominated on the music show without being promoted, how do you feel about it?
JJ: We haven’t had the album together for 3 years so we gave our whole hearts in “Just Us’ album, and you all will get to listen to this album tomorrow. We wish all the fans come to support us.

Q: All 3 of you are very good at singing, could you tell us how you share the lyrics part when you sing together?
JJ: We sat and discussed who was good for each part so we could express our feelings more clearly in that part of the songs.

Q: What are JYJ specialties?
JS: JYJ are different to other singers because we can sing with many vocals, for example, I can sing the high notes and other members can sing medium and low notes to make the best of the songs. This is our charm.

Q: This album is full of JYJ creations, please select a song that suits you the most and tell us why?
JS: I like ‘Valentine”. This song suits me well because I’m charming and this song is charming. This song can express who I am very well.
JJ: This is a very difficult question. I choose the song “Let me see”. I personally like this song because it means a lot to me and we all 3 sing this song together.
YC: I like “Valentine” , it’s been a year since this song was recorded but when we sing it again it can still grab my heart. I really like this song.

jyjthaipressconf2

Q: Jaejoong, you once apologized to the fans you didn’t have the 6 packs to show them in your drama. So will the fans see them in the concert tomorrow?
JJ: I think it’d be difficult because, honestly, I’ve been eating a lot lately but if the fans really want to see them I’ll reconsider about it.

Q: Junsu, you are considered a musical star and your sexy role in the Musical Dracula has just ended. Could you tell us how you selected the musical role?
JS: When I considered the musical role I’d listen to their musical songs if I liked one of them I’d accept the role right away, but if there’s none that I like, then I have to reconsider again.

Q: What if Jaejoong or Yoochun accepted to take the role in the musical Dracula. Which roles would suit them the best and why?
JS: Jaejoong suits the Dracula role because his of facial features but there’s another role for Yoochun as the guy who is very into love, I think it suits Yoochun well.

Q: JYJ have been friends for more than 10 years. Is there anything you like to tell each member but hasn’t had a chance to do it yet?
JJ: If there’s anything I’d like to say but didn’t have the chance before, I think it’d be difficult to say it right now on the stage. Talking in private is a better idea.

jyjthaipressconf3

Q: The fans always feel pity for Junsu because Jaejoong and Yoochun always tease him during the interview, is it true?
JS: Yes it’s been like this for 10 years. They like to tease me during the interview so if they don’t do it now it won’t be fun.

Q: We haven’t seen you guys for a long time, can you update us your Thai?
JS (Thai) : ma-proa (coconut)
JJ (Thai) : Chon kaew (Cheers)
MC : After you finished your drink you must say “Mod kaew” (The glass is empty)
YC (Thai) : Ting-tong (silly)
MC: Did you specify that to someone?
YC (Thai) : Mai Ting tong (not silly)
JJ (Thai) : A-roi (delicious) and I also learn the word “Pi” and “Nong) Pi is for the person who is older than you and Nong is for the person who is younger than you. I just learned those words today.
JS (Thai) : rak na joob joob (love you peck peck)

Q: JYJ has been appointed as the honorary ambassadors of 2014 Incheon Asian Games and got a chance to sing the theme “Only One” , tell us how you feel about it?
JJ: This Asian games is a great national competition. We are very honored to be invited to sing the theme song at the opening ceremony. We’d like to tell all the athletes to be careful during the competition. Although winning and losing is important but the most important thing is health. We want everyone to be safe.

jyjthaipressconf4

Q: If you were selected to be South Korean national athletes in this Asian games . What kind of sports would you like to take part in and why?
JS: I will choose archery because it is considered South Korean national sports.
JJ: I want to participate in fencing.
YC: I’d just be the manager then. I think being manager for these two must be more tiring because I’d have to take care both of them when they’re in the competition.

Q: I think this is the question that the fans want to know, are Thai girls beautiful?
JS (Thai): rak na joob joob (love you , peck) I like Thai girls, they are beautiful and so pretty when they smile.
JJ: Hahahaha I’m not sure if I can ask this but I’d like to know when Thai girls put the make up on, are their eyebrows already thick? I saw my sisters after cleaning their make up , they had no eyebrows but I saw all the Thai girls have the eyebrows.

JS: One more thing, Thai girls got the very beautiful eyes.
YC: This question should have never been asked because I think Thai girls are very lovely. When the boys speak they end up the sentences with “krub” and girls end up with “ka” I think the “ka” accent is very imploring (the MC asked everyone to say Yoochun ka)

jyjthaipressconf5

Q: Finally what would you like to say to the fans before going to meet them at the concert tomorrow?
JS: I’d like to thank all the fans and sponsors to give us a chance for the concert in Thailand this time. It means a lot to us because this is the final concert this year. Let’s have fun together tomorrow.
JJ: see you tomorrow
(Before Yoochun ending the press conference, the fans showed their support by showing the banner “JYJ Smile Again”)
YC: Thanks everyone for coming to this press conference. I’d like you all to continue supporting us in the concert tomorrow. Thank you so much.

JYJ is famous as the team gaining highest popularity among Hallyu stars in Vietnam.

On this day fans, who gathered from across the nation, sang along to songs in Korean and enjoyed JYJ’s concert.

One fan saw JYJ who she’s looking upon again in 4 years, and choked back tears.

On this day, JYJ opened with live stages for all of 24 songs; like title song ‘Back Seat’ and their 1st regular album’s title songs ‘In Heaven’ and ‘Get Out’. As a talented band they also showed off a variety of colorful stages –such pop, rock, dance, R&B– within their own solo performances in a group-like way and captured local fans’ hearts.

The encore stage became an unforgettable memory for everyone, singer and fan.

Although everyone got drenched in the rain, they enjoyed the concert. JYJ said, “The rain came but we got more excited. It became a sexy stage because of the rain” and “It seems we’ll never forget the time we spent with Vietnamese fans”.

Passing through Seoul, Hong Kong, Beijing, and Vietnam, JYJ’s Asia Tour will continue onto Chengdu, China on September 6.

[TRANS] 140810 JYJ’s Blockbuster ‘THE RETURN OF THE KING’ Concert Wows 30,000 Fans

jyjjamshil2014

Not even a cool summer breeze could dampen the heated energy shooting out of JYJ. The air buzzed hotter than a tropical rainforest with screaming fans and JYJ’s powerful energy filling the outdoor stadium. A passionate performance and explosive screams let the world know that the ‘Kings’ had returned.

JYJ held the Seoul leg of their 2014 Asia Tour ‘THE RETURN OF THE KING’ at the Jamshil Stadium on the 9th. The venue was filled to the brim from early on in the day with 30,000 fans who had gathered to see JYJ. Holding red lightsticks in their hands, their shouts were more passionate and energetic than ever as they awaited the return of JYJ as a complete group.

Opening the night with a captivating video, JYJ greeted their fans by saying, “This is something we’ve felt since we started rehearsing yesterday, but this is great weather to have an outdoor concert. I’m reminded of that cold day many years ago; it was so cold that we couldn’t even hold our microphones properly. We’re happy that the weather is so nice today.”

Park Yoochun expressed his gratitude for his fans as he said, “It’s supposed to be summer but it feels like fall weather. It’s cool and breezy. I saw Junsu performing from behind the stage. It’s nice to be back as JYJ and to be seeing you all again. Thank you so much for not forgetting about us.”

JYJ also played a video that included a heartfelt letter from the members to their fans. In the video, JYJ said, “To our fans who have believed in us and followed us for the past ten years, we know that you’ve been smiling and crying, even when we couldn’t see you. Although we always feel more sorry than grateful, we’ll keep doing our best. Let’s make our future a happy one. The people who have the number one place in our hearts are the fans who are watching this video right now. Thank you.”

On this day, JYJ’s might could easily be felt. Standing on stage together for the first time in approximately four years, JYJ repaid their screaming fans with a passionate performance. They took on a variety of genres, from emotional ballads to exciting dance tracks and explosive rock songs. With 11 years of experience under their belt, JYJ didn’t seem to slow down at all throughout their performance, which got their fans more excited than ever.

jyjjamshil2014bA wide array of solo performances that showcased each member’s charm drew the attention of many. Kim Junsu sang a total of four songs, starting with ‘7 Years’ and then going on to sing ‘Tarantallegra’, ‘Turn it up’ and ‘Incredible’.

Not only did he express the innocent and beautiful emotions of childlike wonder, he also filled the stage with energy and wonder. The stage buzzed with lighting effects, dancers and Kim Junsu’s red hair, dyed such a color because of his role in the musical ‘Dracula’. His performance with 16 dancers drew people’s attention and his choreography that included a red scarf fit him very well. He showcased a variety of performances that reflected his years of experience.

Park Yoochun’s sweet solo performance captivated his fans. Starting with ’30’, Park Yoochun’s setlist included ‘Walking with Her in Spring’ and ‘I Love You’. His performance was more meaningful because it had been a while since fans had seen Park Yoochun on stage, instead of on TV as an actor. Park Yoochun’s natural and soft charm, coupled with a dance performance with his female dancers, filled the stage with his presence.

Kim Jaejoong performed ‘Dear J’, ‘Butterfly’ and ‘Mine’. Fans screamed when Kim Jaejoong came on in a revealing outfit. He replied by taking off his top on stage.

Kim Jaejoong’s performances showed the rocker within. His charming vocals harmonized with the strong instrumental and revved fans up even more.

JYJ performed over twenty songs including ‘Creation’, ‘Be the One’, ‘Babo Boy’, ‘Dad, You There?’, ‘Let me see’, ‘Found You’, ‘So So’, ‘Be my girl’, ‘In Heaven’, ‘Letting go’, ‘Valentine’ and ‘Back Seat’. They also performed ‘Empty’, ‘Get Out’ and ‘Fallen Leaves’ for their encore, bringing great joy to their fans.

The day’s performance also highlighted JYJ’s heartfelt care for their fans. JYJ traversed across a 80m extended stage to get one step closer to their fans. The stage also included a 22m-by-8m main screen that opened up, as well as 12m-by-9m screens on either side to ensure that everyone had a clear view of what was going on. The stage that was connected to the extended stage in the middle was created with a steel truss design, the first of its kind in Korea, to allow more movement.

Eight programmed moving trusses were installed on the main stage, which each truss installed with various video and lighting equipment to bring a different feel to each song. The four runway trusses around the middle stage could be lifted to look like pillars during the concert. JYJ also included an extra small stage to get closer to the fans who were seated in the second and third floor.

jyjjamshil2014d

JYJ greeted their fans with more passion and energy than ever. This was their first time together in a while, and they seemed to enjoy it with all of their hearts. They worked hard to bring joy to their fans, and it was great to see them joking around like friends. Because they have been together for over ten years, we could feel a sense of ease and experience oozing from them. Those 150 minutes truly signified the return of the kings of K-pop.

JYJ’s fans were just as amazing as their singers. Not only did they fill the stadium with red lights, they also cheered JYJ on with passion and precision. Their love and passion could be felt through their cheers, which never stopped throughout the entire performance. It was a meaningful time for both JYJ and their fans.

Meanwhile, JYJ recently released their second full-length album ‘JUST US’ on the 29th of July. The album is their first in three years since ‘In Heaven’, and includes lyrics and songs written by the members themselves. JYJ’s popularity was proven when over 120,000 copies of the album were pre-ordered. They also dominated various online music charts when their album was released.

Kicking off their tour in Seoul, JYJ will move on to perform in eight cities around Asia, in regions such as Hong Kong, Beijing and Vietnam.
