[Trans] 130724 JYJ’s Official Statement, “We Are Grateful For The FTC’s Verdict, It Gives Us Strength In This Endless Battle”

JYJ have spoken up regarding the recent decision made by the FTC.

On the 24th of July, the Fair Trade Commission (hereafter known as the FTC) has ordered SM Entertainment and the Korean Federation of Pop Culture and Arts Industries (hereafter known as the KFPCAI), a coalition of 12 pop culture related organizations, to rectify their actions of interfering with JYJ’s broadcasted appearances and activities as singers.

Regarding this, C-JeS Entertainment’s CEO Baek Chang Joo stated, “We would like to thank the FTC for conducting such a transparent investigation for the past three years to eradicate unlawful actions in the industry, collecting evidence of SM Entertainment and principal agents in the culture industry, such as the KFPCAI, unilaterally and systematically interfering with JYJ’s broadcasted appearances.”

jyjblase

CEO Baek Chang Joo welcomed the FTC’s verdict as he stated, “The investigation gave irrefutable evidence that SM Entertainment had violated the Monopoly Regulation and Fair Trade Act by abusing their monopolistic and superior leverage in the entertainment industry to disadvantage those who have different opinions multiple times. We believe that the FTC’s recent order to rectify such actions will shed light on the tyranny of super powers in the industry who go against the innovative economy policies of the current government.”

He also stated, “The development of our nation’s entertainment industry, signified by the Hallyu Wave, will only take place if the creativity and diversity of every participant is respected and guaranteed. This means that we must no longer be swept up in the despotism of the few super powers in the industry. If the Hallyu waves develops henceforth on the basis of a lawful mould, starting with today’s ‘rectification order’, we believe that this will be an opportunity to leap forth into the world again.”

CEO Baek Chang Joo added, “Although JYJ’s legal dispute with their former agency was concluded in April, JYJ still suffered from unlawful external pressure. Including the unilateral notification they received from their album distribution company recently, it is an undeniable fact that JYJ have unlawfully been restricted from appearing on music programs, even when they release albums. This is an embarrassing truth in our society today. But if policies and institutions continue to be the foundation of change, as they were today, we believe that JYJ will be able to perform on a fair stage in the future.”

JYJ stated, “We would like to thank the FTC for their decision. Though it feels as though we have been locked in a hard battle since 2009 and are walking in an endless desert, today’s verdict gave us strength to keep going as it showed that the situation is slowly changing for the better. We hope that the FTC’s verdict will allow us to freely pursue activities in the entertainment industry and stand on a fair stage in front of the public. We also hope that such roads are also opened for our juniors as well.”

They continued to add, “Although a long and dark tunnel still lies ahead of us, we saw a strand of light in the far distance flash by our eyes. We will continue to walk towards that light, and we will always do our best to repay everyone with great performances and activities.”

Meanwhile, the FTC charged SM and the KFPCAI for interfering with JYJ’s activities in the entertainment industry when the group released their first album in October, 2010 after filing for independence from SM due to issues regarding an unlawful contract.

Regarding the FTC’s verdict, SM Entertainment stated, “It is unfortunate that such a verdict was made, although there was no evidence to prove that such interference had taken place. SM is currently reviewing the option of pursuing legal action against this latest decision.”

[Info] 130405 JYJ Yoo Chun Drama ‘I Miss You’ To Air In US, Europe

[Info] 130405 JYJ Yoo Chun Drama ‘I Miss You’ To Air In US, Europe

JYJ’s Yoochun in ‘I Miss You’

Hopefully it will only be a matter of time before JYJ member Yoochun will be seen on TV screens across America and Europe.

The idol starred in the hit Korean TV drama I Miss You late last year and due to an overwhelming fan response, officials from the MBC show are currently in talks to promote the program in both the US and Europe.

I Miss You aired on MBC last November and follows the story of two young lovers who were tragically separated and meet again as adults. It also stars Yun Eun Hye and Yoo Seung Ho.

The drama is currently being shown in Japan on the DATV network and will begin in Hong Kong later this spring. I Miss You is expected to begin airing in China and the US sometime in June or July according to producers. After settling on details for those airings, focus will shift toward the European market, said an official for the show.

The Japanese rebroadcast has, so far, been wildly successful and has very good ratings overall.

Yoochun and his group JYJ have an enormous fan following across the world. The K-Pop group just finished up a series of three sold-out Dome concerts in Tokyo and are moving on to continue their international promotions.

K-dramas have been offering music fans a chance to see their favorite stars in a new and exciting way, off the stage and on the screen. Many idols have attracted thousands of more fans through their different acting pursuits and the members of JYJ are no different.

There is still no confirmation about the logistics of the American broadcast of the romantic drama, but the folks at MBC seem to feel incredibly confident that with Yoochun and JYJ’s global presence and popularity, I Miss You will be equally successful in other parts of the world.

[Trans] 130306 Max Changmin Confesses, “The Biggest Turn Off Is A Woman Who Goes Off The Grid To Spite Me”

[Trans] 130306 Max Changmin Confesses, “The Biggest Turn Off Is A Woman Who Goes Off The Grid To Spite Me”

TVXQ’s Max Changmin revealed what type of girl he dislikes most.

On the episode of KBS2′s ‘Moonlight Prince’ that aired on the 5th, the guests and MCs talked about the type of women who are the biggest turn offs. Max Changmin chose ‘Women who go off the grid out of spite’ and revealed that he once broke up with his former girlfriend because of this.

Max Changmin stated, “When you date someone, there are times when you fight because both sides have done something wrong. I will apologize and say ‘I was wrong’ to mollify her, but there was one who said, ‘I don’t know, whatever, I don’t want to hear it’ in response and ignored my calls and went off the grid. I hate that.”

 

Kang Ho Dong shared his sentiments as he stated, “Going off the grid when you’re in a relationship should be a crime. Not being able to reach her by phone drove me crazy. And women know exactly what effect it has on men. They refuse your calls, whether their phone is on or off.”

After hearing Kang Ho Dong and Max Changmin’s conversation, Kim Wan Seon argued that going off the grid was a part of the tug-of-war in love as she stated, “But isn’t the art of tug-of-war in a relationship important? You have to be good at it to be loved.”

But the men on set refuted this claim as they said, “We’ve seen so many couples break up early on in their relationships because of it,” and Max Changmin confessed, “I’ve broken up with someone once because she went off the grid.”

Meanwhile, the guest stars of the episode were Lee Young Ja, Kim Wan Seon, Kim Sook and Kwon Jin Young and the four stars showed off their wit and charm in the latest episode of ‘Moonlight Prince’.

[Interview] 130124 JYJ′s Kim Jae Joong is Sad About JYJ′s Inability to Appear on TV

Although its legal proceedings with SM Entertainment have come to a conclusion, JYJ is still unable to appear on TV as singers.

As such, JYJ member Kim Jae Joong recently came to voice his sorrow at being unable to perform on TV.

In a recent interview with enews, Kim Jae Joong said, “It′s not just our problem, but we′re really sorry.”

Kim Jae Joong, Park Yoo Chun and Kim Junsu, who were members of TVXQ (DBSK) at the time, demanded their contract with SM Entertainment be cancelled, filing a lawsuit against the agency in 2009. Their opinion was that their 13-year contract with SM was too long, and that the division of profits were set at the agency′s advantage.

As the court acknowledged that it “approves individual promotions,” the members have continued to promote through dramas, albums and concert tours inside and outside Korea. The group, however, hasn′t been able to appear on music or variety shows. The three main channels defended their avoidance of the group with the assertion that its appearance could have an affect on the court decisions.

The long battle came to an end in December with an agreement between SM and JYJ, but the main channels are still treading carefully around the issue of the group′s televised appearances.

Kim Jae Joong said about the lack of televised promotions, “People around me tell me ′you′re doing great even without television′ or ask ′aren′t you doing okay without it?′ but that′s how it looks when you see things from JYJ′s point of view. Celebrities need to approach their fans through the media, but for us, it′s the fans who have been seeking us and our music.”

He added, “Elementary school students these days don′t know us. Though they do know us, they know us as actors, so that′s saddening. We′ve spent almost four years this way, and we want to repay our fans who have been coming in to visit us.”

In the meantime, Kim Jae Joong released his first solo mini album Mine on January 17. The title song has been received as a revival of traditional rock.
