[Translation] 110530 ‘World Tour’ JYJ, “We Are Getting Stronger As More Time Passes”

JYJ, who started their two-month long worldwide tour in Bangkok, Thailand, revealed their thoughts on their remaining two performances.

Kim Jaejoong, who acted as the Director for the Asia leg of the tour, stated, “I worked hard to make it a stage where the singers’ abilities are better showcased,” and “I worked especially hard on understanding each city’s incorporated culture and tried to find a way to communicate with each location’s fans in the most effective way possible. Because the ideas in my head came true at each performance, I was happy to share moving and electrifying moments with our fans and I’m thankful to all the people who came to watch our performances.”

Kim Junsu stated, “In our US performances, we’re working with the best teams in the world, people who have choreographed for Beyoncé and Christina Aguilera,” and “The best moments are when our dance team gives us thumbs-ups at the end of our performances and when the staff compliment our live skills and tell us we harmonize perfectly. As these staff members have worked with global pop stars, I feel as though their praises have more weight and meaning to them and it makes me happy because I can feel our potential through their words.“

Park Yoochun said, “We are getting stronger as more time passes. I can feel that we are growing in a positive direction,” and “I feel such an overwhelming pride for our world tour, which becomes more structured and perfected as we perform more.”

CEO Baek Chang Joo of C-JeS Entertainement stated, “The Busan concerts were completely sold out in 15 minutes after ticket reservations opened on Friday. For the domestic fans who have been waiting for JYJ, we have been positively considering additional encore performances.”

Translation 110530 Five Key Reasons Why “Miss Ripley” Should Not Be Missed

[Translation] 110530 Five Key Reasons Why “Miss Ripley” Should Not Be Missed

(Repeated Information Omitted)

From the use of “social issues” as its concept to the drama planning stage, as well as strong cast members and press conference, there has been a lot of buzz about “Miss Ripley,” but what kind of work is “Miss Ripley” exactly? We will now reveal one by one, the five points of attraction for this classic melodrama that has shaken Korea, “Miss Ripley.”

◆ An integration of “Social issues that rocked Korea”

In 2007, the “resume forgery” incident caused a great uproar in Korea, starting with a debate about one person’s “resume forgery,” which led to several famous people being forced to go public regarding the truth about their own education history, and also brought to light other social problems that were put up in public forums during this time. Korea’s societal view that the academics is everything, the corruption of the financial sector, and the society’s disregard for principles etc. Anyone who lives in this world would have gone through or been hurt by such issues, and all of the abovementioned social problems were present in the said incident.

“Miss Ripley” is about lie that was told by one woman, which led to her mistaken success, and also gives a realistic interpretation of the unjust rules that have been deeply embedded within society.

◆Lee Da Hae, who unabashedly shows the greed and desires of humans, and Kang Hye Jung, the embodiment of innocence.

In “Miss Ripley,” Lee Da Hae plays a character who “Lies so that she can live, and reaps great rewards because of it. However, she is not satisfied and shows more greed and desire,” the role of Jang Miri. Lee Da Hae said that at the beginning, she worked really hard to express the role of Jang Miri who “struggled to escape from living hell.” Wearing a red wig and tight-fitting outfits, running barefoot around the Japanese city center and such, Lee Da Hae focuses her entire being in acting, and her transformation is the most important point to notice in the drama.

Also, Kang Hye Jung, who has returned to the acting scene after 4 years, is increasingly piquing the audience’s interest with her transformation. Kang Hye Jung with her unique acting style will be playing the role of the innocent and adorable Moon Hui Joo, showing a pure and carefree side. The two ladies’ passionate performance will heighten the excitement of the drama.

◆Kim Seung Woo and Park Yoochun, the perfect image transformation!

Kim Seung Woo has shown various different images through dramas and movies. In this drama, he plays a man suspended in a loveless marriage, who later finds true love, the role of hotel manager Jang Myeong Hoon. Kim Seung Woo had said, “I really wanted to act in a classic melodrama, and I will realistically express the interpretation of a deep love by someone in their 40s”

Park Yoochun, who successfully played the character Lee Seon Joon in 2010, will be taking on the role of the “flawless” modern day Prince Charming, Song Yoo Hyun. Song Yoo Hyun is warm and kind, and firmly believes that Jang Miri, who “makes use of him for her own success” is the true love that he needs, and cannot help himself. In this second role, how will Park Yoochun convey the emotions of love and pain for his character? This is something to look out for.

◆Realistic representation of managing a luxury hotel

A top-class hotel with a luxurious atmosphere and rich culture. People who are in control of the 21st century world economy, culture, trends and other markets gather at this hotel in the city. With such a hotel as the background, a story about the career and love between the employees managing the hotel unfolds, and the greed and romance that lies behind the magnificent successes and failures are realistically expressed. Set in a hotel where all kinds of people come and go, the management staff fights for the survival of the hotel, and through this drama, we can see their honest emotions.

◆Choi Myeong Gil, Song Jae Ho, Jang Yong… Aided by the presence of veteran actors! Detailed completion of the drama!

We anticipate the heavyweight performances of Korean veteran actors, which helps the viewers immerse themselves in the drama. In the show, Jang Yong is the CEO of the global resorts conglomerate, Choi Myeong Gil plays the role of Park Yoochun’s mother, Song Jae Ho is the director of Hotel “A”who values Kim Seung Woo greatly, Kim Na Woon is Kim Seung Woo’s close friend and colleague, etc. These veteran actors create a strong backing, increasing the well-roundedness of the drama.

Translation 110517 Lee Da Hae – “Please Bear…

Translation 110517 Lee Da Hae – “Please Bear With Me Till The Fourth Episode.”

Lee Da Hae and Kim Seung Woo spoke like they were afraid of Yoochun’s fans, bringing about great laughter.

MBC’s new Monday-Tuesday drama “Miss Ripley” (Screenplay: Kim Sun Young, Director: Choi Yee Seob) held its press conference on 17 May, at 11am at the Seoul Banyan Tree Totel. Kim Seung Woo, Lee Da Hae, Park Yoochun and Kang Hye Jung were present for this event.

When introducing her role in the drama, Lee Da Hae said “Initially, I was very dismissive towards Yoochun, so I’m a little concerned. Everyone, please bear with me until the fourth episode and it will be okay.”

Following that, she clarified an earlier issue about the couple outfits, saying “Actually it wasn’t anything much, but when you play an on-screen couple it is easy to cause misunderstandings,” then she smiled and said, “There is a short hugging scene, but I kept worrying about the fans so I couldn’t commit to the scene.”

After hearing this, Kim Seung Woo quickly added “I beg the producers, even if we need to have a scene where our relationship is bad, please do not write in any scenes with me hitting Yoochun,” causing bouts of laughter from the audience present.

Following “The Duo,” and airing on 30 May, “Miss Ripley” is about a woman who happens to tell a lie which sparks off a string of lies, and is caught in a landslide which eventually leads to a crisis in which she could lose everything. It is typical melodrama about woman who is filled with greed and the two men who fall in love with her, the conflict and resolution of love and destruction.

“The one who bears a lonely soul, howling in a world of darkness.”

In short, he is a man who has never messed up, a trustworthy elite, but not someone you can lean on. He meets Miri, who will stop at nothing to achieve her goals.

Some happy news^^ I went to the advertising company today, and because the advertisement for TiO, which Yoochun-hyung is endorsing, is doing well, the people at Dong Seo Foods are really happy, and are saying that this is truly the Park Yoochun effect. From now on, I will support all Dong Seo food products endlessly^^ Thank you each and everyone for their love for TiO ^^

Looking at how TiO is doing so well in the market, it has set an unprecedented new record that the Dong Seo staff has never seen before.

Translation 110425 From Seaweed Monster To Thomas… Hilarious Nicknames For Stars

When looking at nicknames that fans have made for their favorite stars, we can gauge the fans interest in them. For idols especially, being called by their nickname is much more common than being called by their real name and the stories that lead up to the birth of these nicknames are different for each star. Some nicknames are derived from the stars’ names while others come from the stars’ character or talent. We’ve put together the most intriguing nicknames that are filled with the love and mischief of fans.

[omitted]

◆Emphasizing a talent or characteristic…
JYJ’s Kim Junsu (25) is called ‘Dolphin’ by his fans. The nickname was made based on a comparison between Kim Junsu’s vocal talent and that of the dolphin, with the mammal’s ability to produce sound waves too high in frequency for humans to hear. The nickname was created due to the singer’s vocal range that easily encompasses high notes. Recently, Kim Junsu was deemed the most vocally talented idol member in a survey and fans responded to this with the compliment, “Our dolphin boy Kim Junsu has done it again.”

[omitted]

◆Coming from their looks… ‘It’s possible’
JYJ’s Park Yoochun(25) was the target of many fans’ complaints when he decided to grow his hair out to a length that made it seem somewhat shaggy and bushy. Many fans commented on his wavy, long hairstyle and said, “It reminds me of seaweed,” thus giving birth to the nickname ‘Seaweed monster’. When he returned to a more neat and short hairstyle, it became such a hot topic that the words ‘Park Yoochun’s haircut’ became one of the most searched phrases on a popular portal site.

Translation: Lodging Owner’s Account–Yoochun’s Trip To Japan

This account by an omma fan is so sweet. I’m glad that Yoochun got a chance to rest. Momma Cha

[Trans] Lodging Owner’s Account – Yoochun’s Trip To Japan

The 7th, 8th, and 9th of April became memories that will always remain with me. I met with four stars of Korea. For someone like me who is a fan of Korean drama, it was very fun.

Kim Son Yeon has been a friend of mine for many years and she is a scriptwriter for dramas. She calls me “Japanese omma”. Her husband Chae Seob is a director. They usually work separately on separate projects but this time they have decided to work on the same drama. With four main characters, the president of the production company, the cameramen, and the managers, all a total of 26 people came for two nights and three days to Japan for a location scout. They came to Karatsu (T/N: city in the island of Kyushuu) and the reason for this is because they wanted a part of the drama to be located in Karatsu since before. So hopefully if all goes well, they will be able to come during May for filming. What I mean by “if it all goes well” is due to the effects of the earthquake, hopefully the filming in Japan location won’t be cancelled.

Regardless of the result, all I can do is pray and I will write about what happened the past few days. Actually since there is private information revealed, I don’t usually write about people who were at the accommodation (T/N: lodgings) but I was encouraged to write and boost excitement for the drama. The title still seems to be in discussion , “Goodbye Miss. Ripely”. It will be an MBC drama of 16 episodes. They have already started filming in Seoul. All four main characters got together and came here.

The group bus arrived. The first one to get off was one of Yoochun’s bodyguard. It seems that he is a judo player. This was my first time seeing a bodyguard up so close and it was strange, so I tried poking him a little. When they landed at Fukuoka trip, it was meant to be a secret trip but it seems there were more than about fifty fans gathered there. I wonder how they know…

First was lunch. Divided into several tables, it was a lunch of sushi. Park Yoochun was wearing short sleeves (even though it was cold).

As Park Yoochun had done activities in Japan as Tohoshinki, his Japanese was very good. He didn’t have a Korean accent, so his pronunciation made me think that he was really Japanese. His character’s name is Yutaka and he is acting the part of the son of a large family enterprise. He told me he heard that Saga has really good meat so he ate a lot. He was wearing a sweater which had holes on it so I asked him if it was cold and he joked around saying that he didn’t have money so he’s wearing a torn sweater. He was young man who was very polite to his elders.

Here is a photo of Park Yoochun. Do you not like the grandma who’s standing next to him? Hmm..is that so. I’m sorry. If you would like, please go ahead to cut out my face and replace it with your own. The two days while everyone else went scouting the location, Yoochun stayed and rested. I also heard that Yoochun from JYJ donated a large amount for the victims of the earthquake.

At night it was script reading time. Lee Dae Hee is the one with the long hair. Opposite is Yoochun. It seems the actors were going through the script with the scriptwriter.

This serious reading of the script went on until late in the night. Even now I’m excited to see what kind of drama it will turn out to be.

News 110321 The Powerful “Ripley” Casting Lineup Synopsis…

[News] 110321 The Powerful “Ripley” Casting Lineup: Synopsis and Characters Revealed Kim Seung Woo—Park Yoochun—Kang Hye Jeong—Lee Da Hae, Confirmed as Leads of the Authentic Melodrama “Ripley”

The actors Kim Seung Woo, Park Yoochun, Kang Hye Jeong, and Lee Da Hae formed the “Ripley Line.”

They have confirmed to appear in the new MBC Monday-Tuesday drama “Ripley” (working title; writing Kim Sun Young, directing Choi Yi Seob) which will first air in coming May.

Ripley’s storyline is: A lie accidentally made by a woman bears yet another lies, and as a result the woman falls into the pit of lies, and in the end faces the risk of losing everything (and have everything disappear into naught) due to the lies. Also, it is an authentic melodrama in which two men who comes to love this woman of greed and desires struggle and reconcile between love and destruction.

Kim Seung Woo was casted as the hotel manager Zhang Myung Hoon with cool sensibilities who was born in a poor family and has lived recklessly with becoming the #1 as his goal. Zhang Myung Hoon is a man who faces the risk of having everything that he’s worked hard for to become #1 crumble as he comes to love Zhang Miri. He plays the role of a hotel manager for the first time in 10 years after the 2001 drama Hotelier.

Park Yoochun of group JYJ is generating high expectations by having been chosen as the son of the CEO of a famous Japanese resort agency, Yukata. In the drama, Yukata comes to know true love through Zhang Miri but also is of the tragic fate of having to become subjected to the risks of total destruction due to her. It looks that “Yoochun-Illness” which was set afire by the “Sungkyunkwan Scandal” will be re-ignited through Yoochun who will reveal himself as a true man.

Kang Hye Jeong steps forward as the kindhearted and innocent sister of Zhang Miri from an orphanage, Nha Hee Joo. In the drama, Nha Hee Joo comes to know her older sister’s corruption and fraud and in attempting to bring this to light falls into danger in the end by Zhang Miri. She comes back to the Television Screen 4 years after the 2007 KBS 2TV drama “I came to find the flowers.”

Lee Da Hae comes back to the Television Screen after appearing in the KBS 2TV’s “Chuno” in 2010, 1 year and 3 months ago. In the drama she will play Zhang Miri who, due to one lie, falls into a fatal (bottomless) pit and will show off her charms as a femme fatale.

The production company Curtaincall Media said: “The (most) powerful lineup of Kim-Seung Woo, Lee Da Hae, Park Yoochun, and Kang Hye Jeong is heightening the expectations of the drama’s degree of completion. Ripley will unite in one a solid and well-put-together screenplay, and sensitive and fashionable directing. A new (kind of) product which has not been seen before will be born.”
