[TRANS] 140811 JYJ’s ‘JUST US’ Tops The Album Sales Charts For Two Consecutive Weeks.. Proves Their Might

jyjjustusatarnews

JYJ (Kim Jaejoong, Park Yoochun, Kim Junsu) have proven their everlasting popularity by topping the album sales charts for two consecutive weeks.

According to Hanteo Charts, JYJ’s second full-length album ‘JUST US’ has sold a total of 28,840 copies from the 4th till the 10th of August, making it the most-sold album of the week.

After being released offline on the 29th, the album sold 32,788 copies in its first week and topped the charts, making this its second consecutive week in the top position.

The group also proved their popularity overseas when their album ranked second place on the Oricon weekly charts and 4th on Billboard’s world album charts. These achievements have been highlighted by the industry because they were achieved by an album with Korean lyrics rather than an album tailored to these overseas markets.

This is JYJ’s first album in three years since their release of ‘In Heaven’ in 2011. Their title track ‘Back Seat’ is an urban R&B track with emotional lyrics and a mystical atmosphere. It topped the music charts as soon as it was released online.

Meanwhile, the second week of August (4th~10th of August) reflected the recent trend of male idol domination. Block B’s ‘Her’ sold 14,838 copies and came in at second place. B1A4’s ‘Solo Day’ came in at third with 6,768 copies sold, and Infinite’s ‘Back’ came in at fourth place with 2,114 copies sold.

[TRANS] 140810 JYJ’s Blockbuster ‘THE RETURN OF THE KING’ Concert Wows 30,000 Fans

jyjjamshil2014

Not even a cool summer breeze could dampen the heated energy shooting out of JYJ. The air buzzed hotter than a tropical rainforest with screaming fans and JYJ’s powerful energy filling the outdoor stadium. A passionate performance and explosive screams let the world know that the ‘Kings’ had returned.

JYJ held the Seoul leg of their 2014 Asia Tour ‘THE RETURN OF THE KING’ at the Jamshil Stadium on the 9th. The venue was filled to the brim from early on in the day with 30,000 fans who had gathered to see JYJ. Holding red lightsticks in their hands, their shouts were more passionate and energetic than ever as they awaited the return of JYJ as a complete group.

Opening the night with a captivating video, JYJ greeted their fans by saying, “This is something we’ve felt since we started rehearsing yesterday, but this is great weather to have an outdoor concert. I’m reminded of that cold day many years ago; it was so cold that we couldn’t even hold our microphones properly. We’re happy that the weather is so nice today.”

jyjjamshil2014a

Park Yoochun expressed his gratitude for his fans as he said, “It’s supposed to be summer but it feels like fall weather. It’s cool and breezy. I saw Junsu performing from behind the stage. It’s nice to be back as JYJ and to be seeing you all again. Thank you so much for not forgetting about us.”

JYJ also played a video that included a heartfelt letter from the members to their fans. In the video, JYJ said, “To our fans who have believed in us and followed us for the past ten years, we know that you’ve been smiling and crying, even when we couldn’t see you. Although we always feel more sorry than grateful, we’ll keep doing our best. Let’s make our future a happy one. The people who have the number one place in our hearts are the fans who are watching this video right now. Thank you.”

On this day, JYJ’s might could easily be felt. Standing on stage together for the first time in approximately four years, JYJ repaid their screaming fans with a passionate performance. They took on a variety of genres, from emotional ballads to exciting dance tracks and explosive rock songs. With 11 years of experience under their belt, JYJ didn’t seem to slow down at all throughout their performance, which got their fans more excited than ever.

jyjjamshil2014bA wide array of solo performances that showcased each member’s charm drew the attention of many. Kim Junsu sang a total of four songs, starting with ‘7 Years’ and then going on to sing ‘Tarantallegra’, ‘Turn it up’ and ‘Incredible’.

Not only did he express the innocent and beautiful emotions of childlike wonder, he also filled the stage with energy and wonder. The stage buzzed with lighting effects, dancers and Kim Junsu’s red hair, dyed such a color because of his role in the musical ‘Dracula’. His performance with 16 dancers drew people’s attention and his choreography that included a red scarf fit him very well. He showcased a variety of performances that reflected his years of experience.

jyjjamshil2014c

Park Yoochun’s sweet solo performance captivated his fans. Starting with ’30’, Park Yoochun’s setlist included ‘Walking with Her in Spring’ and ‘I Love You’. His performance was more meaningful because it had been a while since fans had seen Park Yoochun on stage, instead of on TV as an actor. Park Yoochun’s natural and soft charm, coupled with a dance performance with his female dancers, filled the stage with his presence.

Kim Jaejoong performed ‘Dear J’, ‘Butterfly’ and ‘Mine’. Fans screamed when Kim Jaejoong came on in a revealing outfit. He replied by taking off his top on stage.

Kim Jaejoong’s performances showed the rocker within. His charming vocals harmonized with the strong instrumental and revved fans up even more.

JYJ performed over twenty songs including ‘Creation’, ‘Be the One’, ‘Babo Boy’, ‘Dad, You There?’, ‘Let me see’, ‘Found You’, ‘So So’, ‘Be my girl’, ‘In Heaven’, ‘Letting go’, ‘Valentine’ and ‘Back Seat’. They also performed ‘Empty’, ‘Get Out’ and ‘Fallen Leaves’ for their encore, bringing great joy to their fans.

The day’s performance also highlighted JYJ’s heartfelt care for their fans. JYJ traversed across a 80m extended stage to get one step closer to their fans. The stage also included a 22m-by-8m main screen that opened up, as well as 12m-by-9m screens on either side to ensure that everyone had a clear view of what was going on. The stage that was connected to the extended stage in the middle was created with a steel truss design, the first of its kind in Korea, to allow more movement.

Eight programmed moving trusses were installed on the main stage, which each truss installed with various video and lighting equipment to bring a different feel to each song. The four runway trusses around the middle stage could be lifted to look like pillars during the concert. JYJ also included an extra small stage to get closer to the fans who were seated in the second and third floor.

jyjjamshil2014d

JYJ greeted their fans with more passion and energy than ever. This was their first time together in a while, and they seemed to enjoy it with all of their hearts. They worked hard to bring joy to their fans, and it was great to see them joking around like friends. Because they have been together for over ten years, we could feel a sense of ease and experience oozing from them. Those 150 minutes truly signified the return of the kings of K-pop.

JYJ’s fans were just as amazing as their singers. Not only did they fill the stadium with red lights, they also cheered JYJ on with passion and precision. Their love and passion could be felt through their cheers, which never stopped throughout the entire performance. It was a meaningful time for both JYJ and their fans.

Meanwhile, JYJ recently released their second full-length album ‘JUST US’ on the 29th of July. The album is their first in three years since ‘In Heaven’, and includes lyrics and songs written by the members themselves. JYJ’s popularity was proven when over 120,000 copies of the album were pre-ordered. They also dominated various online music charts when their album was released.

Kicking off their tour in Seoul, JYJ will move on to perform in eight cities around Asia, in regions such as Hong Kong, Beijing and Vietnam.

[TRANS] 140701 Official Statement from CJES on Incheon Asian Games Incident

-The official statement from CJES regarding Incheon Asian Games-

The 2014 Incheon Asian Games committee said “we appointed JYJ as the honorary ambassador, whose popularity is well recognized all around the Asia, to encourage the rest of the asia to know more about the 2014 Incheon Asian Games and to boost the promotional campaigns.”

When the C-jes Entertainment was discussing the roles of JYJ as the honorary ambassador, the officially formed service contract was accomplished with the campaign marketing agency from the 2014 Incheon Asian Games committee. The contract includes the following statements; “anything promotional campaigns related to the 2014 Incheon Asian Games should be agreed upon with JYJ in advance.” And “2014 Incheon Asian Games is obligated to consider JYJ as their top priority when casting other K-POP stars or singers for the opening and closing ceremony and any other conferences held by oversea media. Also, the 2014 Incheon Asian Games committee and its chairman along with the person who was in charge of the promotional campaign PROMISED JYJ THE STAGES FOR BOTH OPENING AND CLOSING CEREMONIES.

Followed up campaigns such as recording the title song of the 2014 Incheon Asian Games, Only One, and making the music video with no charge; JYJ has been nothing but loyal to the 2014 Incheon Asian Games. Moreover, JYJ participated the showcase held in Hanoi, Vientnam and Guangzhou, China last October and November. The showcase in November where all the persons concerned for the 2014 Incheon Asian Games was supposed to gather was cancelled due to the natural disaster in Philippines.

A month ago, C-jes Entertainment notified the 2014 Incheon Asian Games committee that JYJ will join the Incheon Main Stadium opening event and the press conferences for both opening and closing ceremonies where the stage director would be there as well. However, no further information regarding every events could be received from the committee and the press conference happened today was one result from such matter. On the most recent call with the committee, they said that there is nothing confirmed for the stage schedule yet. However today the committee distributed to the press that they have “Stars Casted for the Opening and Closing Ceremonies” and did not mention JYJ, the official honorary ambassador. The committee also said that the appearance of JYJ is confirmed, but they are NOT discussing when the stage of JYJ will be made but WHETHER THEY WILL ALLOW JYJ’S STAGE TO GO ON.

The 2014 Incheon Asian Games committee PROMISED the opening and closing ceremonies. They even suggested collaborating a stage with PSY for the closing ceremony and JYJ told the commiittee that they would be honored to be on the same stage.

The 2014 Incheon Asian Games should keep the promise with JYJ. We believe that the 2014 Incheon Asian Games committee is organized to fulfill the public interest, which is based upon the loyalty and trust. For more than a year, the committee has made over four billion Asians believe that JYJ is the face of the 2014 Incheon Asian Games, yet they did not bother to mention the name JYJ at the press conference. This goes against common sense. The stage with such a great singer who is loved the nation-wide.

If the committee tries to blame the person who was in charge of casting the honorary ambassador in the future or to make an excuse saying that JYJ was supposed to perform on the opening and closing event, not the main ceremony would be very disgraceful of the committee. It does not need lots of reasons to see how ridiculous it is that JYJ, who has been working really hard for the campaign and even recorded the theme song, was only going to perform on the even before the big main ceremony.
As you already know, JYJ was unfairly informed that they were no longer needed for the event for the Je-Ju New 7 Wonders of Nature’s honorary ambassodor in 2011. (It was unfair because JYJ was given such information just one day before the event and obviously they have reserved their flights and was even given a cue sheet.)

We remember the day we had a first meeting with the committee last May. We emphasized that JYJ has gone through enough painful obstruction and that it fears them it might happen again. We told them JYJ would not even consider starting something unless it is fully agreed upon and everything is obligated since the pain will be unbearable, not only for the members of JYJ but all the fans around the world who love them. The committee said that it is beyond deplorable that such obstruction is and has been occurring to JYJ. They were also very confident that they will not let such problem occur to JYJ.

We hope this breach of contract is not made by another preposterous and unfair threat and sincerely ask for everyone’s attention and support for JYJ.
