Seo InYoung vs. Park GaHee
Team GaeHee vs. Team InYoung
On SBS’s new variety show “Heroes”, the 12 ladies who participate each week had to be divided into two teams. One was Team Seo InYoung (Former Jewelry, Now Solo) and the other was Team Park GaHee (After School).  The remaining 10 ladies had to choose between the two and decide who they wanted to go on a trip with.  It was a fierce battle of pride, since the two team leaders had a history of rivalry on the show.

a-nation Tokyo Part 1

August 29, 2010 0 Comments
Around 50% of those in the stadium were in orange at the beginning, by the end, there was 70-80%.

The time JYJ came out was around the same as when they were in Osaka, as we approached the moment of their appearance, the guards became more strict.
Even as I took out my phone to check the time, I'd feel scared.
The songs they sang were pretty much the same as those in Osaka.
At around 18:40, when the sky was slowly darkening, the three of them finally walked out.
All the red lights suddenly came on.

a-nation Tokyo, Aug 28

August 29, 2010 0 Comments

The first day of the Tokyo live is over.

As you can all see in the pictures, the stadium was full of red lights and orange towels, it really looked like the red ocean. It was beautiful in the evening dusk.

The three members were full of energy.
Yoochun seemed to be slim (his chin became sharper), and he was always smiling his soft and lovely smile.
Junsu was high-spirited, and his smile was dazzling.
Jaejoong was as always, so handsome, and his vocal was strong and yet so beautiful.
I wish I had more English vocaburary to express their powerful stage.

Musician Copykumo Talks Of Jaejoong-Junsu’s Participation In SungKyunKwan Scandal OST

August 29, 2010 0 Comments


Xiah Junsu and YoungWoong Jaejoong are working on the SungKyunKwan Scandal OST with each of them taking on a different style. I had always known that Xiah Junsu was really good but I feel like YoungWoong Jaejoong’s song will be a rediscovery of him.. I had stereotypes about him because he’s an idol singer but he’s actually really good at singing.

JaeChunsu - Haneda Airport Fan Account

August 28, 2010 0 Comments


My friends and I started planning a week ago to go to the airport, but the flight was not confirmed until 5 in the morning on Friday. My friend had to go to work that morning so I had a hard time deciding whether or not to should go. In the end, I decided to go alone.
I arrived at the airport at around 7:30, and since it was still quite early, I stayed in the domestic section for a while. At 8:40, I walked across to the international flight section.

I was once told that Japanese fans don't generally go to the airport to see their idols, so I was a little worried that I'd be stopped by security. When I arrived, the place was packed with fans, it was completely insane. There were already around 200 people waiting and the security was trying to get them out. I was also stopped by a security guard, but after he let me pass through after asking a few questions...

Jaejoong’s Feeling to Appear in Ayumi Hamasaki’s PV

August 28, 2010 1 Comments
Released in July, Ayumi Hamasaki (31) new single ‘Crossroad’ is under production of a new PV, and on the 28th it’s published that TVXQ Jaejoong is going to make appearance in the PV. This will be Jaejoong’s first appearance in Japanese artist PV.

However Hamasaki will not appear at all in the PV. The plot is about a young painter (Jaejoong) who is chasing his dream despite being attacked by a disease, the story tells how he spends the remaining of his life eagerly. Hamasaki said, “If I star it by myself, I would be too much ‘talking’, so I think of someone who can act with compelling power, therefore I asked Jaejoong to appear on,” explaining about her choice. “With his world view of music and unique captivating atmosphere, it will become a very good video clip.” she said.

While Kim Jaejoong commented, “Ayumi Hamasaki is a big senior in my record label, thus when I received the offer to appear in her PV, I was really happy, eventhough I feel a lot of pressure, I’ll try to do it properly!”

Movie “Kimiga Odoru, Natsu” Premiere

August 28, 2010 0 Comments
The theme song: "With All My Heart ~Kimiga Odoru, Natsu~"


Today, August 27, I went to the Bigeast event, the premiere for the movie “Kimiga Odoru Natsu”.
The event was taken place at Yomiuri Hall, Yurakucho, Tokyo, starting 14:00.
There should be 1000 Bigeasts, the hall was mostly full. I was sitting in the very front row of the 2nd floor.

The hall was very quiet while we were waiting. Maybe it was because most of the fans came alone. (We were to apply for the event one by one.) And, since the place is an event hall and not just a movie theater, the BGM (during waiting time) was classical music, making the atmosphere calm and relaxed.

First of all, the movie “Kimiga Odoru, Natsu” was shown on the screen. I heard that the movie time was 2 hours and 3 minutes. The movie itself was lovely, the storyline and images were wonderful, I was really impressed. Even if it had a different theme song, I should have been touched by the lovely story, it was full of youth dreams and love. I will just write down one phrase which impressed me the most. “Yosakoi (note: traditional Japanese festival dance) is a positive dance.”
The movie will be released nationwide on September 11.

We haven’t had one of these battles in a while – 2NE1’s fierce leader CL and fashionista Seo In Young were caught rocking the same patterned top by the youthful & flirty French label Manoush.

Launched by Frédérique Trou-Roy a few years back, Manoush has made a name for itself with its vintage yet fresh style, ranging from charmingly boho designs to irresistibly pretty prints.

CL sported the patterned top for a recent photoshoot for Allure magazine with her fellow groupmates. According to the website, the top was matched with a pair of leather pants from Theory and sheer black leggings from the stylist’s collection.
On the other hand, Seo In Young wore the top on an episode of SBS variety show HaHa Mong set to air on August 29th. So far, we’ve only got a screenshot of her upper half so it’s difficult to tell how she matched her outfit, but I guess we will know in a few days!

Fan Account - Changmin's 'Don't Don' Stage

August 27, 2010 0 Comments
No matter how many times I see it, every time scenes from this performance pop up in my head, I can't help my eyes from welling up.
Super Junior's 'Don't Don'
Changmin and Trax's collaboration.

It's was a scream that came from within, one that erupted from the depths of his soul. It's as though everything he's endured in the past year is suddenly exploding out of him.
Changmin is still the Changmin we used to know.
His screams convey his fiery passion for singing. This is Choikang Changmin!
When I was in the stadium, I really couldn't handle the heat, but Changmin's voice gave me goosebumps.

This person, how much talent has he got?
I think everyone that was inside that stadium, no matter how familiar or unfamiliar they might be with Changmin, everyone saw his talent.
Honestly, at that moment, the cheers were deafening.
The low notes were just as good as the high notes at the end of the performance, only Changmin could do it so effortlessly.

In Dong Bang Shin Ki, he's usually responsible for all the high notes, and some netizens might say that he's only capable of screaming at the top of his lungs. Hearing things like that must be extremely saddening.
What I want to convey is, I want you all to know
that the Changmin we see today isn't just about screaming.
He hasn't had a proper performance for nearly a year,
and it's been over 6 months since he's sung on stage.
Under such circumstances, could you imagine how much preparation he put into that stage?
Training, proper, vigorous training.
I used to worry about his absence.
I'm sorry Changmin.
You really are the best, Choikang Changmin.
No matter how many times I say this, it will always hold true.
I really like you, and that's why I'm a fan, it's amazing.
As I wrote this blog, I couldn't help the tears from falling.
My eyes are now completely swollen.

How much do singers get paid on music shows?

August 27, 2010 0 Comments


Any typical viewer of K-pop’s ever-spectacular music shows would probably think the compensation for the artists is beyond imagination in numbers, especially for famous idol stars. However, a recent declaration by Korea’s National Singer Association begs to differ.

The Korea’s National Singer Association has recently elected trot artist Tae Jin Ah to be its next president. As the group’s new representative, Tae Jin Ah revealed, “I will make appearance fees for music programs more realistic now.”
What does he mean by that?
