The excitement for JYJ’s Kim Junsu (XIA)’s second album Asia tour is hotter than ever.

C-JeS Entertainment stated, “The response that Kim Junsu has received for his first Japanese solo tour is amazing. There were approximately 60,000 seats available for his Nagoya and Yokohama concerts, and more than three times that number of people applied for tickets with all seats selling out before the show. His popularity in Japan was proved yet again when fans began queuing from the early hours of the morning to buy MD goods ahead of Kim Junsu’s concert on the 14th.”

They continued to add, “The fans who were coming to watch the Yokohama concerts began queuing extremely early because they heard that the MD goods had been sold out in Nagoya. This may be because only one MD good can be bought per person. Though all concerts of Kim Junsu’s Japanese tour were held on a weekday, Japanese fans packed Yokohama’s busy streets to show their support for Kim Junsu on his first solo tour.”

The Japanese fans themselves expressed their satisfaction with the concert. Keiko Yamada (36) of Osaka stated, “I was sad that we couldn’t see Kim Junsu in Japan the last time he held a tour. I’m so happy that he’s here this year. Kim Junsu’s music has a sincerity that touches the heart. It was such a moving experience that I could never properly express in words.” Aimee (24) of Saitama said, “Kim Junsu sang ‘Tsubomi’ and said he’d come all the way here to see us. I could feel just how much he cares for his fans. I hope he will be able to release a full-length album in Japan soon.”

A representative stated, “There were many middle and high school students who had come to buy MD goods. Though he has been inactive in Japan for the past 3~4 years, Kim Junsu has been able to attract new fans with his albums. The fandom continues to expand as the years go by.”

[News] 131014 JYJ’s Kim Jaejoong Gets Ready to Break Away in Latest Set of Teaser Images for First Solo Studio Album “WWW”

jaetattos

Are you ready? JYJ‘s sexy rockstar Jaejoong is.

Jaejoong’s agency, C-JeS Entertainment, released a set of image teasers on the group’s official Facebook page with the message “WWW.” The images never show the singer directly, instead focusing on Jaejoong’s tattoos on his back and feet. Along with images of the singer, there are pictures of medical equipment set in a background of disarray, as well as a picture of charcoal doodles on a wall of monstrous entities. These images preview a dark, gothic concept to Jaejoong’s upcoming album and set the mood for the singer’s transformation.

C-JeS Entertainment stated, “The ‘WWW’ stands for ‘Who, When, Why?” which is the theme that Jaejoong chose for the album. Jaejoong wrote most of the lyrics for this studio album, and he incorporated his dissection of love in the songs.” It continued, “This set of image teasers also portrays Jaejoong’s determination to break away from the set image and prejudices about him. Wishing to portray the message that freedom is not unconscious resistance but the ability to express oneself, Jaejoong suggested many ideas while filming the teaser.”

Jaejoong will release his first studio album, “WWW,” October 29, but beforehand, tomorrow, he will reveal a track from his album that is described as a ballad that is like autumn. Then starting November 2, Jaejoong will hold his “2013 Kim Jae Joong 1st Album Asia Tour Concert” in Seoul.

[TRANS] 131011 The End Of 2013 To Feature Three New Musicals, ‘Fans Are Already Excited’

Posted on by

threenewmusicals

The end-of-the-year season is approaching the musical industry. Though it’s only mid-October, musical fans are already excited. Especially consdiering the fact that some concerts already have begun selling tickets, people are busy looking for great musicals to watch and nabbing the best seats in the house.

The hottest musicals that are set to make their debut this year are ‘Wicked’ (Korean), ‘December: The Song That Hasn’t Ended’ and ‘Ghost’. All three will be making their debut in the Korean industry for the first time. Considering the fact that it’s difficult to gauge how good a musical is if it’s never been shown before, it’s natural for musical lovers to be skeptical about these productions. Because of this, ‘Wicked’ is obviously the favorite of the list with a 96% ticket reservation rate (Interpark), attracting 200,000 people in the shortest time ever. Musical columnist Jung Da Hoon stated, “It’s not easy to guess the success level of a debuting musical,” and “Considering the fact that ‘Wicked’ has a storyline and music that has already been recognized, many are excited for it.”

‘Ghost’, which comes all the way from the 5-trillion Won industry of the UK’s West End, stands out as having a well-built storyline, which is familiar as the movie the musical is based on was released in Korea in 1990. The original movie’s popularity and familiarity are the greatest weapon of ‘Ghost’.

‘December’ is in the most unfavorable position as it has never been shown before. However, it has more than enough up its sleeve to come out on top. Bringing in Kim Junsu, who has the biggest ‘ticket power’ in the industry, and teaming him up with Kim Kwang Seok’s music. The smart choices made by NEW, the movie production company making its debut in the musical industry with the upcoming production, have proven that ‘December’ is a force to be reckoned with. Many representatives in the industry have voiced their opinion that in terms of competitiveness of cast members, ‘December’ comes out on top though ‘Wicked’ has Ok Joo Hyun and ‘Ghost’ has Joo Won. Some are saying that having Kim Junsu on the cast list is enough to guarantee success. Musical columnist Park Jung Hwan stated, “Kim Junsu, who has the greatest ticket power in the musical industry, and Kim Kwang Seok’s music have teamed up,” and “The synergy those two will create is astronomical.”

junexianagoya

YJ’s Kim Junsu (XIA) has ended his Nagoya concerts in success.

Kim Junsu held the Nagoya leg of his ‘XIA 2nd Asia Tour Concert in Japan’ tour from the 8th till the 10th of October at Nagoya’s Nippongaishi Hall, attracting a total of 24,000 fans to the event.

A representative of C-JeS Entertainment stated, “Kim Junsu’s perfect live skills and the local project dance crew created an incredible stage. From the 14th till the 16th, Kim Junsu will hold the grand finale of his Asia tour in Yokohama.”

On this day, Kim Junsu performed songs from his first and second album, and his OST repertoire, as well as ‘Minna Sora No Shita’ and ‘Kobukuro’ to a cheering crowd. Starting off with ‘Tarantallegra’, the title song of his first album, Kim Junsu had everyone pumped up with songs such as ‘Chocolate girl’, ‘I’m Confessing Right Now’ and ‘Isn’t This Song Funny?’

It was later said that representatives were surprised by Kim Junsu’s Japanese fans following along with the Korean cheers of ‘Isn’t This Song Funny’, a song written by the singer himself and based on his real life experiences. In the second half of the concert, the singer touched everyone with a live rendition of ’11 o’clock’ and ‘Love is like a Snowflake’. For three days, fans stood up and clapped for Kim Junsu till the end of the concert instead of staying in their seats.

Through his talk segments, Kim Junsu connected with his fans and talked to them. Kim Junsu was able to communicate in fluent Japanese without a translator to help him, and gained a lot of attention for singing ‘The Last Dance’ from ‘Elisabeth’ in Japanese during ‘Genie Time’, when he granted wishes for his fans. He had everyone screaming with his ‘Gwiyomi Song’ dance, and a double encore of ‘Incredible’, the title song of his second album, ended the show.

During his last performance on the 10th, Kim Junsu said, “I was nervous because this is my first concert in Japan as a solo singer. But day by day, your applause and passion became a great source of strength for me. Thanks to you, I think I’ll be able to do great in Yokohama as well. Thank you.”

Ms. Ayumi (Female, 31) stated, “I really like Kim Junsu’s second album. I went to Korea last year because I wanted to watch him perform. I’m so grateful that he’s come all the way to Nagoya this year. I was so moved by his amazing vocal talent. I can say with confidence that you could only see such an amazing performance at a Kim Junsu concert,” while Ms. Haruko (Female, 24) said, “It was a pleasant surprise to see Kim Junsu singing and talking in Japanese. I’m very happy to be watching the last leg of Kim Junsu’s Asia tour in Japan. It was a two-hour concert full of happiness and joy.”
