[News] 111010 JYJ’s “In Heaven” Is Still Blocked From Music Programs

Fans had high hopes for “In Heaven“, but it seems the restrictions imposed on JYJ are still going strong, as the trio recently revealed that their album still can’t be performed on air (despite charting at the top for four weeks in a row now).

Representatives of JYJ revealed, “We have never received an offer to perform on music programs. Even if we bring the album with us to meet them, they never call back. The album is creating waves on the Hanteo chart right now but it’s not being reflected onto the music program charts, which we find difficult to understand.”

They continued, “Music programs weren’t able to give a logical and fair reason as to why they were rejecting JYJ, but it seems they just simply don’t care anymore and are acting like they don’t notice what’s going on.”

Despite the cold treatment, the boys are going strong, selling out their European tour and being invited to foreign festivals left and right.

NEWS  JYJ  First Album “In Heaven” Qualifies For Gaon Charts!

Following negotiations, JYJ’s releases, including their recently-released first album “IN HEAVEN”, are now qualified to be ranked on Gaon Charts.

According to an affiliate of Gaon, “The distributor, A&G Mods, was not a member firm of the Gaon Chart and so tracking (the copies sold for the chart) was impossible. Currently we are in the middle of final negotiations over the number of copies sold and reflection of that number on the chart.”

Also, an official statement was released via Gaon’s homepage, “The negotiations with JYJ’s (album) distributor, A&G Mods, is currently ongoing. If we are early, from October 10th the data for the copies sold during the month of September will be reflected (on their chart position).”

The Gaon Chart bases its rankings not only on sales figures provided by album distrubutors, but also from M2M, an album distribution center. C-Jes Entertainment, JYJ’s agency, was not a Gaon member, nor did it distribute albums through M2M. Due to this, Gaon could not track JYJ’s sales figures until an agreement with JYJ and C-Jes was made.

C-Jes has recently reported that “IN HEAVEN” has sold over 350,000 copies as of early October, and it is at fifth place for male groups, and sixth place overall on Hanteo’s January-September chart.

NEWS  Seoul Metropolitan Government Apologizes To JYJ Fans

The Seoul Metropolitan Government (SMG) apologized to JYJ fans on its official Twitter on October 6, amidst protests and suspicion that a recent web banner used by the SMG is too similar to an earlier advertisement banner created by JYJ fans.

Image of SMG’s banner, from the Twitter of @crocus0904

The protests started on October 6 at 1:30 PM, when a JYJ fan tweeted that the SMG banner, which reads, “Seoul Supports Our Youth” (Seo-ul-i chungchoon-eul eung-won-ham-ni-da) bears a remarkable resemblance to an earlier ad banner created by JYJ fans, both in layout and slogan, which stated, “JYJ, We Support Your Youth” (Tang-shin-e chungchoon-eul eung-won-ham-ni-da).

With the onslaught of fan protests, SMG tweeted its denial of plagiarism at 2:30 PM on the same day. “The slogan ‘Seoul Supports Our Youth’ on our banner is a common expression that has been used since our earlier projects which has always aimed to realize dreams and hopes. The character font is also a handwriting font publicly shared on Naver. The campaign using this banner is not related to JYJ in any way. We sincerely apologize to JYJ fans for the misunderstandings caused. We respect the opinions of JYJ fans and will be replacing this banner.”

SMG also tweeted, “Yes, we agree that the JYJ banner was created through the tears of the fans. We are touched. We have confirmed that the banner was created through the request of the webpage design agency, and the designer in charge of the banner had totally no idea of the JYJ campaign. Because of the very strong similarities interpreted from the meanings of the slogan, once again we would like to resolve the misunderstandings and offer our sincere apologies.”

The tweet was also directly sent to @circus*****, @mad****, @JYJsPie**** , Twitter accounts of fans who first voiced their objections to SMG. Towards the apology, @mad**** tweeted, “SMG tweeted that they would replace the banner. It’s not my intention to make this a big matter. I hope this whole matter would end now…” On the other hand, @JYJsPie**** continued to argue, insisting, “Please show us more detailed examples of SMG using the banner earlier in the past.”

Reactions in the Twitter-sphere about this incident are mixed. @sunxiahine**** praised, “An efficient way to settle this matter,” while @pedd**** protested, “Without obtaining our approval, they illegally used (our) text, how can there be no relation (between the two banners) at all?! This is clearly an ad that was copied; it’s plagiarism!”

The JYJ banner was part of an advertising campaign organized by fans in support of JYJ when they sued SM Entertainment for unlawful contract practices. The campaign lasted one month from January 27, with banners appearing on 120 buses in Seoul and other major Korean cities (Gwangju, Daejeon, Daegu, and Busan), and reportedly cost 150 million won (~$127,000 USD), gathered from fan donations.

NEWS] European JYJ Fans Crash Server As Berlin Concert Tickets Are Made Available

Group JYJ’s European Tour Is Currently Receiving Explosive Attention From K-Pop Fans At The Site

JYJ has already surprised concert staff by selling 80% of the tickets for their 5000 seat solo concert at Poble Espanyol in Spain in just three days. The group has again proved their European popularity with German fans crashing the server for the ticketing site as soon as tickets went on sale for their concert in Berlin to be held in November.

An associate of the concert has revealed his sentiments about this occurrence with, “Since this event is not even a project concert of a giant entertainment company, but a solo concert, this situation is that much more startling. Once again, I came to realize the great popularity of K-Pop in Europe as well as the high popularity of JYJ.”

Regarding the European tour, JYJ had also stated, “Since this is the first European tour we’re having, we’ve had some fearful feelings, but we thank people for their attention and we’ll prepare a hot concert (for them). The Spanish ambassador in Korea thanked us for performing in Spain and gave us encouragement. Upon hearing that the ticket sales are flourishing like this, we’re full of excitement for the concerts we’ll hold with the European fans.”

JYJ has also been invited for the Spanish manga fair that gathers over 60,000 people that come to attend the event. Through the performance in this festival, JYJ plans to present their exclusive charms to the Spanish press and the west European public.

TRANS] 111004 JYJ Are Crazy About ‘This’ These Days

Posted on October 9, 2011

 

The individual activities of JYJ’s members get a ’10 out of 10′.

Kim Jaejoong debuted as an actor through SBS’ Wednesday-Thursday drama ‘Protect the Boss’ while Kim Junsu starred in two musicals and became a hot topic for his cameo appearance and his participation in the OST of the popular drama ‘Scent of a Woman’. Park Yoochun has made his mark as an actor through ‘SungKyunKwan Scandal’ and ‘Miss Ripley’.

Kim Jaejoong said, “What’s best is, ‘Let’s be good at one thing’, but I was able to take a shot at acting because a great opportunity came up and I’m thankful to have received a positive response,” and “I’m thinking of taking on acting again if the opportunity arises.“

Kim Junsu said, “Thanks to my participation in the OST of the drama, I was fortunately given a cameo appearance. Though I did think for a moment that I’d like to try acting as I watched the other two become actors, I saw them staying up all night for days on end to complete their filming, and that thought vanished.” He bragged and said that soccer suits him better. He said, “I played in fifteen soccer matches in a month,” and “I didn’t have any celebrity friends, but I became friends with Kim Hyun Joong and B2ST’s Lee Gi Kwang and Yoon Du Jun through soccer.”

Since finishing his drama, Park Yoochun has been hooked on fishing. He said, “I was in Busan for a month in August and I had fun swimming and fishing,” and “There’s nothing better to pass time than fishing.” Park Yoochun plans to continue his acting career. Offers for movie and drama appearance are currently flooding in and he plans to choose his next production and appear in front of his fans in the near future.
