Translation 110713 Part 2; Kim Jaejoong Is Proud of His Fans, Jokingly Said That His Tears Were Used Up

[Trans] 110713 Part 2: Kim Jaejoong Is Proud Of His Fans, Jokingly Said That His Tears Were Used Up‏

Unknowingly, JYJ has debuted for 7 years and probably of the reason that they have went through many obstacles together with the fans, they are even getting similar to each other with their compassionate hearts.

Sharing the love that they have gotten from the fans to others who needed help, a part of JYJ’s concert income from every performances was donated to charity organization. Compassionate JYJ is the model to the fans and fans extended their kindness through activities such as rice and blood donation and organising a charity drive for heart patients.

Upon hearing the praises for JYJ fans from the reporter, Kim Jaejoong said with a contented look, “I’m very proud. And I do know of some good deeds that was not publicized. Looking at them makes us determined to do more good deeds and this is really very fulfilling.”

During Asia showcases, world tour performances and fanmeetings, it is a common sight to see fans crying due to their unchanging love for the trio JYJ and everyone’s cause for tearing is usually due to Kim Jaejoong. Members have ever said in a programme about crybaby Kim Jaejoong, revealing “Kim Jaejoong really loves to cry and once he starts crying, it won’t stop. It is just like a tap being left open.” To this, Kim Jaejoong explained, “Actually I used to be a crybaby. There was a period of time where I kept crying. Recently the tears lessened, it feels as though the tears have been used up,” emphasizing that he is no longer a boy who loves to cry.

Kim Jaejoong was known to be the member who loves to observe fans’ reactions. When being asked by the reporter about the reason, he blinked and said, “I am very curious what everyone is talking about. There were fans who liked us since we debuted, many fans who later on likes JYJ and 30 or 40 years old fans who appeared after Yoochun acted in ‘Sungkyunkwan Scandal’. There are even teens who chose us amongst the many idol groups. The age range of the fans were enlarged and it is very novelty. Although there are people who find it a hassle to observe fans’ reactions while busy at work, but to me, it wasn’t like that. I really wished to know what are fans thinking about, talking about.”

Trans 110713 Jaejoong Slept With Ji Sung In…

[Trans] 110713 Jaejoong, Slept With Ji Sung In Underwear… Twice‏ (My brothers did this all the time, especially in the summer) 🙂

Kim Jaejoong will be completing his first acting in domestic drama with SBS TV ‘Protect The Boss’. He tried his first acting in movie ‘Heaven’s Postman’ (2009) and later gained results through Fuji TV ‘Hard To Say I Love You’.

Appearing as chaebol successors, ‘Cha Mu Won’ Kim Jaejoong and ‘Cha Ji Hyun’ Ji Sung (34) are first cousins. They were rivals due to their parents’ feud for control of management. There was power struggle with Ji Sung hyung but in reality, I became closer with hyung. I was not able to be closer fast, due to the awkward atmosphere but hyung initiated to become closer to me,” expressing his thanks.

The chance to become closer to Ji Sung was during the MT gathering with the actors and staffs. “Before the official filming begins, I went to the MT gathering organised by Ji Sung hyung. In the beginning, we were just the relationship of senior and junior, but after we drank alcohol, it became the situation where we slept in only our underwear.”

“Later on, I practiced the script with hyung, and hyung called, so I went over to his place. That day was also sleeping on hyung’s bed, just wearing underwear. During MT, we slept, saying ‘What’s there to (to worry) between guys?’, the second time we said, ‘It already happened the first time, what’s wrong for the second time,’ rather than becoming closer through pains, we seems to have become closer very fast.”

Kim Jaejoong said that it was a very happy filming site. He have to endure his laughter looking at Ji Sung and Park Young Kyu (58). “Teacher Park Yong Kyu is a cultivated gentleman-like off screen but upon acting, he is very funny. Ji Sung hyung is Teacher Park Yong Kyu’s son and his appearance is a punk, thus his usual lines used proverbs that is unlike a proverb or idiom, the words used for a slang that is unlike a slang would appear too, therefore it is very interesting.”

“Other than Ji Sung hyung’s passionate help, I can feel the care from the others too. Choi Kang Hee noona would leave me a message if she did not managed to say goodbye to me after filming. After the increment of meet-ups, the nervousness gradually decreased. The senior actors were very good to me.”

Kim Jaejoong is currently undergoing the challenge with his new realization. During his filming for ‘Heaven’s Postman’, he was in a status with a lot of thoughts for his singing career thus he has no desire in other fields. Therefore there was neither enough time for filming nor his degree of commitment.

“Nobody told me what a movie is. And it was not a continuous filming. I filmed for a few scenes and returned to being a singer, then returned to filming again. It was done is such a manner. I do not understand/know the continuing emotions of the scenes and filmed it just like that. It also seems that due to my issues, Han Hyo Joo who was filming with me, also lost the enthusiasm. I changed a lot during the drama filming in Japan. I learnt a lot of things and it was a chance for me to be committed as an actor.”

Kim Jaejoong said the message spread by ‘Protect the Boss’ was rather solemn. It not only portrays the sufferings of people seeking employment, it also portrays the troubles of an everyday employee. But there would be laughters and affections in it to share with the viewers, “I think it is such a drama.”

[Trans] 110713 Kim Jaejoong Revealed His Shirtless Photo, “Perfect Inverted Triangle”‏

Jaejoong, Johnny Weissmuller and Arnold Schwarzenegger Would be Proud

JYJ member Kim Jaejoong suddenly revealed his tough inverted triangle body built!

Kim Jaejoong uploaded a photo on Twitter, along with the tweet “A photo I thought a lot” on the 12th afternoon.

In the photo taken during drama filming, Kim Jaejoong took off his shirt and displayed his broad shoulders and slim waist, presenting the perfect inverted triangle body built. Due to exercise resulting in not much body fats, the smooth and flat muscles gained attention.
(T/N: Article error. I’m pretty sure it’s taken during The Beginning photoshoot and not drama filming. Secretaries will faint.)
Fans who have seen that photo responded one after another with “When uploading such photos, do not worry or hesitate”, “As expected, it did not disappoint everyone’s anticipation”,”Now you are really a man” etc.

At the same time, Kim Jaejoong will be appearing in SBS Wednesday-Thursday drama ‘Protect the Boss’ that is broadcasting on the 3rd of August, as prince in financial world ‘Cha Mu Won’, displaying his comedic acting skills.

Translation 110712 Defying Castle Walls In Search of Golden Star Xiahzart

[Trans] 110712 Flipping Over Castle Walls In Search of Golden Star Xiahzart

To Kim Junsu, the musical “Mozart!” was an unforgettable performance he has had. During the earlier half of 2010, he had no activities since he had left TVXQ. When he was offered to act in a musical, he had wanted to reject the role, as he was worried about being in the unfamiliar musical industry. He tried to put himself in Mozart’s shoes. Mozart went with his father’s wishes, and travelled from Salzburg to Vienna, just to write music for the archbishop. Even though he was a genius, and lived a luxurious life, but that made him fell into deep misery and unfortunate.

The scene where Mozart left Vienna, flipping the high castle walls in search of the “golden star”, he finally lived for himself, and not for his father. Kim Junsu was moved by the song “Why can’t you love me”, sung by Mozart.

Finally, Kim Junsu found himself familiar to the singing and acting techniques in a musical; he perfectly displayed Mozart’s character. He felt blessed, even though he was tired. The audience was also much affected as they watched his performance; when Kim Junsu played the contradicting character of music genius Mozart, the audience laughed together with the happy Mozart, and teared when Mozart cried. When the stage curtains fell each time, the audience would do a standing ovation. This year, during the curtain call in “Mozart!”, he was reminded of that unforgettable moment he had during last year’s performance. The popular idol star Xiah Junsu has successfully transformed into musical star Kim Junsu.

Currently, Kim Junsu, who has performed “Mozart!” twice, is ambitious. Also being a member of JYJ, he would like to try acting in dramas and movies. He would be performing in another musical, which would be different from “Mozart!” and “Tears of Heaven”, and hopes that he would still be able to keep up with his dance steps. He hopes to take a step at a time, in achieving his own goals.

Translation 110713 Kim Jaejoong Talks About Park Yoochun’s Acting Habits

[Translation] 110713 Kim Jaejoong Talks About Park Yoochun’s Acting Habits

Jae looking like Chunnie

“Park Yoochun has a habit of raising his eyebrows.” (Yeah, we all noticed 😉 )

Kim Jaejoong who is to be reborn as an actor with the new SBS drama “Protect the Boss” revealed the acting habits of Park Yoochun.

Kim Jaejoong spoke at an interview with Star News on July 12th, “Yoochun’s habit during acting is to raise his eyebrows in order to express his emotions. It was the same during the filming of Sungyunhwan Scandal but because of his costume it wasn’t that visible.”

From the recent drama “Miss Ripley”, “In his emotional scenes with Lee Da Hae, I’ve counted his eyebrows being raised more than ten times,” Jaejoong said laughing.

Kim Jaejoong and Park Yoochun who have the friendship of brothers, Park Yoochun is ahead of Jaejoong in the area of drama and acting and so has shown good advice, friendship, and a good presence to Jaejoong.

In regards to this, Jaejoong said that, “It’s not that I want to explain all the details of Yoochun’s life as a star, but I think he can get advice from what I felt from his acting,” Jaejoong also spoke further about Yoochun’s acting, stating that, “When acting, you can feel a certain freedom. I’m jealous of this freedom and wonder when I will experience it too.”

On the day of the interview, Jaejoong met Yoochun at a hair salon, who was preparing for a shooting of “Miss Ripley”. He said that, “Even while he was getting his hair shampooed, he still had his script in his hand and was memorizing his lines. “It seems that because of his tight schedule sleep is about an hour, his eyebags seems to reaching down to his lips.”

Editors Note on Goodbye Miss Ripley as…

Editors Note on “Goodbye Miss Ripley” as Public Exposure to “Female Victimization”

Some time ago, when “Goodbye Miss Ripley” first started airing on Mondays and Tuesdays on MBC, I stated that I would write a layman’s critical review of this melodrama at some point in its run. I wanted to do this because “Goodbye Miss Ripley” is based upon a true story. The drama that we are seeing played out actually happened and does happen every day to many people around the world. Even in modern industrial nations that boast of their ‘human rights’ agendas, women, girls, and to a lesser extent, men and boys, are being snatched from the streets; parking lots; school lots; their homes, and other environments to be sold into sex slavery in their own country or other countries. Many are simply taken and imprisoned for the perverted pleasure of one individual person. Some escape or are rescued, some are still in bondage, and some die in their imprisonment. Prostitution, which is fueled by poverty, low self-esteem, and the diverted eyes of authority, still runs rampant in every town.

Some third world countries still have slavery as it has existed, in its original form, throughout the centuries.

Incest and rape exist in large proportions right in victim’s family homes–in places where the right to live peaceably and quietly is expected to be a guarantee. Perversion on the Internet enters many peoples lives either as “entertainment’ or as “fuel” that leads to the abuse of others.

Those of us sitting safely in our homes enjoying “Goodbye Miss Ripley” for the sake of watching a good melodrama, or just supporting Park Yoochun in his work as an actor, cannot imagine the fear and degrading circumstances that these victims face. This is a global tragedy of infinite proportions, and even though “Goodbye Miss Ripley’ is not the atypical Asian drama, it has its place in educating and alerting those who watch it to the tragic results of neglecting and dehumanizing people in our societies. The story line of “Miss Ripley” is built upon the placement of orphans, without proper assessment by professionals of the families adopting, and the situations of adoption.

I sat down to write about this melodrama as a whole, but I find myself more concerned about exploring the reasons behind Miss Ripley’s character. Her inability to trust is what fuels her behavior, with fear as the predominant motivator of her actions. Over time, her survival methods have dulled her conscience to what is right and wrong to the extent that she has no inhibitions against lying, stealing, and using others to achieve her personal goals. She lives in a world of denial, unable to see her own faults and continually blaming others for her crimes. She possesses cunning, another survival instinct, that keeps her ahead of the game.
Miss Ripley does have feelings and desires to live free of poverty as is revealed in her pursuit of first Jang Myeong Hoon, Manager of the Hotel, and then her subsequent pursuit of Song Yuhyun based upon his more elevated status as the Junior CEO of the Conglomerate Mondo Resort Group. She rises to the top by forging her credentials and employing devious methods to achieve her goals. Miss Ripley exploits her lifelong friend from the orphanage by taking everything valuable from her to create value for herself.

As Miss Ripley has unfolded, the intricacy of the characterizations has been impressive. What gives this drama strength is its basis in reality, and the ability of the screenwriters to merge so many personalities in creating such a poignant story. The ending to this melodrama is still yet to come. We wait with bated breath to discover whether the redemption of Miss Ripley’s character is nigh–or will she fall victim once again to those who neglected her earlier in life.
