Congrats to both Jaejoong and Boyfriend! \(^o^)/
Hi Maddie. I agree. I’m not familiar with Boyfriend, but I know that you are an expert on all these groups.
Absolutely wonderful that Jaejoong has this recognition of his talents. Isn’t it interesting that other countries will often embrace artists more than the homeland? I remember learning about Afro-American authors, singers, and dancers who were embraced more overseas than in America. 🙂 <3
