[NEWS TRANS] JYJ Kim Jaejoong, the reason he sang Cho Yong-pil’s song in concert?

by Ces
jjpresscon
JYJ Kim Jaejoong disclosed the reason he sang Cho Yong-pil's song, which gathered attention.

On the last 19th, JYJ held a press conference for their '2014 JYJ Japan Dome Tour Ichigo Ichie' in Tokyo Dome.

It was revealed that Kim Jaejoong would sing the Japanese version of Cho Yong-pil's 'Walking Along' - Arukitai in his solo performance. Kim Jaejoong said, "Due to filming schedule, I went to Jeju island. At that time, by chance, I heard "Walking Along" in the car. I find it very nice. It's also the first Korean song which topped the weekly chart in Japan."

He disclosed, "Senior Cho Yong-pil only released the Japanese version, he didn't do promotional activities. I thought that not many people could know the song. It's such a shame to enjoy it alone. So I wanted to sing it."

Kim Jaejoong added, "I asked senior Cho Yong-pil via phone call. He asked me how I would sing it. So I recorded a guide version and sent it to him. He said it was good and we decided to have a meal together. I want to sing it well in the concert and have a meal with him after coming back to Korea."

[TRANS] 141120 JYJ First Japan Dome Tour = “Really Happy”


[Tokyo Yonhap News] 
Korea’s popular group JYJ held a press conference on 19th before their performance and expressed with joy that “those issues before have been resolved amicably and we are really happy about being able to hold a press conference with Japanese media”.

After the temporary injunction of exclusive contract with ex-agency SM Entertainment, JYJ signed a management contract with Avex to manage their activities in Japan via new agency C-JeS Entertainment. However, opinions of both sides clashed on the range of acitvities so Avex one-sidedly terminated the management contract in September 2010. JYJ had to hold their Japan activities independently and this affected and limited the contents of their acitivities.


In February this year, C-JeS Entertainment and Avex agreed to end their legal dispute. This resulted in holding this Dome Tour in 3 big Japanese cities and the release of JYJ’s first Japanese single next month.


Although until now there was no report on JYJ by the Japanese media before but on the 17th, a press conference was held with Japanese media. Jaejoong said “even when we held concerts, there was not even 1 line written on it by the Japanese media”, and “we are very happy that our activities can be introduced to many people and even to those that don’t come to the concerts via the media from now on.”


The Tokyo Dome performance this time is the first Japan Dome Tour of JYJ, and after Tokyo Dome on 18th and 19th, concerts will be held in Osaka Kyocera Dome on 13th ~ 14th December and Fukuoka Yahoo Auction Dome on 23th ~ 24th. This is their 3rd time performing in Tokyo Dome.


Yuchun expressed his gratitude with “(before the performance on 18th) I was so nervous that my hands shook and the food I ate wasn’t digested”, and that “I’m thankful that although we couldn’t meet Japanese fans that much, they waited for us”.

Jaejoong and Junsu also commented that “being with everyone who supported us for so long felt like being in a warm place with family members”.


They drew attention by performing [Begin] on the 18th, a song they sang during Tohoshinki times. Junsu exxplained that “we chose this song because the lyrics of [Begin] includes emotions that we wanted to convey to fans and also a song full of memories for us”. On welcoming their 10th anniversary this year in Korea and 10th anniversary next year in Japan, Junsu emphasized that “the 10 years are filled with different emotions, glittering while also with many twists and turns. I don’t think this is an ordinary life for someone in their 20s. But this was also a period where we gain many types of experience, so even when I turn 50 or 60, I think my 20s will be a period which is most unforgettable in my life. I can’t have my 30s without going through my 20s so I want to be able to say later that the 10 years have been a happy one with no regrets”.


When asked the secret of maintaining their popularity amidst views that Hallyu in Japan is fading now, Jaejoong smiled and replied “we also want to know the reason why so many people support us”.

JYJ Members Share Their Hopes for Life in Their 30s

2014.11.20 14:30 Newsen Hwang Hye Jin Translation Credit : Yeawon Jung

The JYJ members shared their hopes and dreams for life in their 30s.

The JYJ members held a press conference prior to JYJ Japan Dome Tour Ichigo Ichie, which was held on November 19 in Tokyo Dome, and brought up JYJ’s future.

Park Yoo Chun started, “I hope I can eat well in my 30s. I hope I can be healthy. I hope I can continue to be healthy so I can see you often in a healthy condition.”

Kim Jae Joong said, “This is something I told Kim Junsu in the waiting room a moment ago. We will be 30 soon. We’ve lived our 20s and no matter how much we struggled and enjoyed until now, I’m honestly worried about what our 30s will be like.”

Kim Jae Joong shared, “I don’t know why I began to have this anxiety about the future. Although I laugh about it now, I’ve gone through some extraordinary times in my 20s, so I wonder how extraordinary my 30s will be and whether I will be able to spend good, extraordinary times.”

He added, “I hope I can be healthy and not be sick. I received a health check up two years ago and the doctor said, ‘You must not drink or smoke. It’s all clean.’ I can never know what’s going to happen so I hope I can spend a healthier 30s and become JYJ where the three of us can overcome any obstacle.”

Kim Junsu said, “From ten years ago until now, I never really looked far into the future. I’ve been living by think about what to do right at the moment or what to do the next day. Now that I’m about to enter my 30s, I began to look further into the future. I began to imagine how we would be like when we’re 35 or 40.”

Kim Junsu continued, “I’m not just saying this with empty words, but I think health is the most important. Because as celebrities, happiness doesn’t just come from being able to continue promoting. I thought about until when we can continue promoting individually or as JYJ. Whether we continue our activities as celebrities or not, I hope that the three of us can always gather to eat or drink coffee as we share conversations. And I want to be happy like that until the day I die.”


JYJ Members Share Their Hopes for Life in Their 30s
 
JYJ also reflected on its activities this year and shared goals for the future.

Kim Junsu said, “I worked on two musicals this year. I performed in December until March and performed 30 times for Dracula for about two months until July. I think I was very happy and did well in Dracula.”

Kim Junsu said, “I’ve heard that Dracula was not an anticipated piece until it began. Numerous cast members, including me, and production team worked together to make the show. Although it was a licensed performance, a lot of work went into the script work, to the point where it could be called an original piece. We changed a lot of things, including the stage set up, to the point where people wonder if it’s the same musical as the ones performed in other countries, but I think the results came out great so I’m happy. I’m glad that I could add a good project like Dracula to my filmography as a musical actor.”

About starring in MBC’s Triangle, Kim Jae Joong said, “I had fun. The drama was extended so it was long but I had more fun as it went towards the end to the point where I wanted to extend it more. It was a drama where I took the first lead role, giving me good experience to begin acting alongside Kim Junsu,” adding, “It was a drama that made me feel like I acted out two different roles. I would like to act out a new character that I did not show on Triangle in my next project. If it’s a good project I would like to challenge myself with a new project anytime to show a good side of me.”

About winning Best New Actor award from The 34th Korean Association of Film Critics Awards for the film Sea Fog, Park Yoo Chun said, “Actually it was my first film so I don’t think I knew the exact meaning or value of Korean Association of Film Critics Awards until now. I ate with Choi Min Sik sunbaenim after the ceremony and as I listened to many things, I realized that it is a very important and meaningful award ceremony. It was meaningful to receive the Best New Actor award from the ceremony. I really enjoyed filming the movie. I fell too deep into the movie. I had fun filming,” and added, “I would like to have a good relationship with all the actors in the future. I would like to have a good relationship with the members, of course, but also with everyone at the company as well as CEO Baek Chang Joo.”

Meanwhile, this will be JYJ’s third dome concert, following Thanksgiving Live in Dome in 2010 and The Return of the JYJ last year. It adds meaning since the group will begin official promotions in Japan after having gone through the period of not being able to promote freely in Japan.

Following the Tokyo Dome concert on November 18 and 19, which gathered 100,000 fans, JYJ will continue the dome tour in Osaka Dome on December 13 and 14 and Fukuoka Yahoo Dome on December 23 and 24. Through the tour titled ‘Ichigo Ichie,’ which means ‘the meeting that comes once in a lifetime,’ JYJ will be presenting upgraded performance and steady live stages.

[TRANS] 141120 JYJ, 2-day Tokyo Dome’s Roaring Success! Message they want to bring to fans…… SingingTohoshinki’s [Begin] Again



C-JeS Entertainment

[Its alright to cry when you want to cry, no need to force youself. when you tears dry your smile will open-up]
Tohoshinki’s [Begin] resounded in Tokyo Dome. There is a special meaing in the song [Begin] flowing with JYJ’s voices.
The concert, first performance of JYJ’s [2014 JYJ Japan Dome Tour ~ Ichigo Ichie~] in Tokyo Dome, was held on 18th and 19th. This is the first time that members used JYJ’s name for a Dome Tour.




To meet JYJ, 100,000 people filled-up the audience seats with 50,000 per day in Tokyo Dome, and they were waving penlights with the words [Ichigo Ichie]. The tour title [Ichigo Ichie] means [once in a lifetime encounter], and it includes how members feel towards their fans.
The performance showcased hit songs released under the name JYJ like [Back Seat] and [Be The One] as well as members’ solo songs, and also included Jaejoong’s performance of singer Cho Yong Pil’s Japanese version of [I want to walk], drama [SungKyungKwan Scandal] OST [Found You] etc. They unveiled these special moments without rest. There was also members talk in-between stages, and talked naturally in front of Japanese fans whom they have not met for some time.




JYJ’s to-be-released Japanese single [Wake Me Tonight] was also revealed during the second half of the concert, performing it for the first time before its December release. The 50,000 audience who filled-up Tokyo Dome was responding to the happy melody of [Wake Me Tonight] actively.
Highlight of the concert was the performance of [Begin] during encore. More glamorous then anyone and yet with so many twists and turns in their 20s, the lyrics and melody of [Begin] when they sing it again was a look-back at the 10 years of their activities which brought pain to the hearts of fans watching.




At the press conference before this concert, Jaejoong revealed “not only that song [Begin], the other songs are all our songs too and we wanted to sing them in concerts. Until now the circumstances did not allow for so, but we wanted to prepare and choose even just 1 song as a present. The message in [Begin] is best able to convey the message we wanted to convey to fans so we chose it. There are many memories in this song” as the reason of choice.
He looked back and said “this year is our 10th anniversary. These 10 years probably hold more twists and turns than anyone….. Our 20-something is not the normal life of a 20-something. I think it was glamorous and with many twists and turns. Even when we turn 50 or 60-something, these 10 years will really be unforgettable times I think. I look forward to becoming a 30-something, but without having gone through our 20s, we won’t have our 30s….. Most of these inevitably became life lessons. I want say that the 10 years are with no regret”.

The Dome Tour of JYJ started off on 18th and 19th at Tokyo Dome, and will be held at Osaka and Fukuoka next.

JYJ Reveals Why It Chose TVXQ’s ‘Begin’ as Concert Ending Song


2014.11.20 10:28 CJ E&M enewsWorld Go Soo Jin Translation Credit : Yeawon Jung

JYJ expressed its excitement on the upcoming promotional activities 
in Japan.

During press conference for 2014 JYJ Japan Dome Tour Ichigo Ichie in Tokyo, which took place on November 19 in Tokyo Dome, Kim Junsu responded to the question about choosing TVXQ’s Begin as the concert ending song saying, “I’ve really wanted to sing it during every concert until now but the situation didn’t allow it,” adding, “As the situation got better (by solving conflicts with Avex company), we prepared it as a gift for the fans.”

He continued, “The lyrics to the song represent what JYJ wants to convey to the fans. Also, the song contains a lot of memories from the time of TVXQ so we judged that it’s appropriate in many ways.”

Kim Jae Joong revealed his thoughts on promotional activities in Japan, which became freer. He said, “Until now, Japanese media did not write a single line of news even when we held concerts. But the press within Japan showed a lot of interest and excitement for this concert. I’m actually very awkward with this situation but thanks to being introduced in many media outlets, even the fans who could not make it to the concert were able to hear about us, so I’m very happy.”

JYJ was involved in a legal battle with the Japanese company Avex for four years, from 2010 until January of this year. When Avex demanded exclusive rights to manage JYJ in Japan, the group received limits on its activities in terms of broadcast promotions and album release. When the two companies came to a mutual agreement in January, JYJ was able to receive legal guarantee on its future promotions in Japan.

Starting with the Tokyo concert on November 18, JYJ will be meeting the fans through 2014 JYJ Japan Dome Tour Ichigo Ichie in the major cities in Japan, including Osaka. The two-day Tokyo concert held on November 18 and 19 gathered a total of 100,000 fans.

JYJ’s Kim Junsu Feels Like Crying When He Sees His JYJ Members



2014.11.20 10:55 Newsen Hwang Hye Jin Translation Credit : Yeawon Jung 

JYJ’s Kim Junsu expressed his affection towards Kim Jae Joong and Park Yoo Chun.

The JYJ members launched a press conference prior to JYJ Japan Dome Tour Ichigo Ichie, which took place on November 19 in Tokyo Dome, and shared their thoughts about each other.

On top of promoting as a singing group, the JYJ members have been carrying out individual activities in various fields, such as dramas, films and musicals. About coming together as a group to perform on stage in a long time, Park Yoo Chun started, “It’s exciting. It’s been a lot of fun. Since I don’t have be chased by time and can act comfortably, that gives me more room to relax.”

Park Yoo Chun said, “When the three of us perform on stage together, I feel very grateful. During yesterday’s concert, we didn’t discuss what to do on stage and just said, ‘Let’s try to go for this feel for opening stage,’ but we naturally created an atmosphere where we talked to each other so I enjoyed it so much,” adding, “I felt like I was being comforted during yesterday’s concert, instead of having fun. Being together with the members itself is enjoyable.”

About the members who are always by his side, Park Yoo Chun said, “The moment I was the most thankful for the members is not something huge, but very personal. I feel thankful when they try to talk to me first when a problem comes up or when I need to talk to someone. I feel thankful when they are there for me when I really need someone to talk to.”



JYJ’s Kim Junsu Feels Like Crying When He Sees His JYJ Members
 
Kim Jae Joong said, “There have been many moments recently when I felt grateful,” adding, “Since we are close, we don’t really contact each other very much. But now we have a group chat room where we talk to each other when we’re bored or send weird pictures and although it’s just a messenger, I feel supported just to have a place to lean on. I wasn’t like this before but now I lean on them when I struggle. They ask to meet up for a drink when they struggle. Even though that makes it harder the next day. I think those things energize me and make me courageous.”

Kim Junsu said, “I always feel grateful towards the members. I always think about it and feel it but the reason I was able to come this far is all thanks to the members. I would definitely have struggled and be exhausted if I came this far alone. I’m thankful and can depend on them just because they walked with me in the direction I wanted to head to.”

Kim Junsu revealed, “I felt it yesterday too. Actually instead of the moments when we do something big for each other, I get the urge to cry when I feel that we’ve spent the past ten years together when we sing together on stage or look at them next to me during a talk. You could say that I’m still young but since I’ve promoted for a long time, my mind got weaker with age. I think that’s why I feel the urge to cry more.”

Kim Junsu added, “In the past, I used to worry about how long we can be together but I’m not afraid of that anymore. Our meetings became natural. We used to be upset if we met each other after a long time but now, even if we meet each other after a month, it feels natural as if we just drank together the day before. Because of this naturalness, I’m looking forward to our 30’s.”

Meanwhile, this will be JYJ’s third dome concert, following Thanksgiving Live in Dome in 2010 and The Return of the JYJ last year. It adds meaning since the group will begin official promotions in Japan after having gone through the period of not being able to promote freely in Japan.

Following the Tokyo Dome concert on November 18 and 19, which gathered 100,000 fans, JYJ will continue the dome tour in Osaka Dome on December 13 and 14 and Fukuoka Yahoo Dome on December 23 and 24.

[TRANS] 141120 JYJ Talked About The Hallyu Slump [We Were Different From The Start]


Korean popular group [JYJ] talked about why they still receive unchanging love after debuting for 10 years.


JYJ held a press conference before their performance in Tokyo Dome in the afternoon on 19th. Questions were asked by reporters on the secret of them maintaining and boasting this unchanged popularity, despite the slump of Hallyu in Japan.


[JYJ] debut in 2005 as the group [Tohoshinki] in Japan officially, and will celebrate their 10th anniversary this year. Jaejoong said “We did not enter the Japan market riding on K-POP Hallyu book.  Our case was a start by capturing a base in the Japan system, and this seemed a little different from those Hallyu artists in the Japan market now. Because we started with music written in Japanese right from the beginning, the mass probably view us differently”.  After this, when asked to give some advice to those junior singers, he advised “I think it should be in a sequence where you start performing in a small space with fans, and then making it bigger gradually”.


[JYJ] performed in Tokyo Dome in 2010 and 2013, but Japan Dome Tour is a first this time. This is also the first time they performed in front of the Japanese media.


The Dome Tour and single release this time has a deep meaning being the start of full-scale Japanese activities of [JYJ], who could not conduct Japanese activities freely until now.

[JYJ] held 2 performances in Tokyo Dome on 18th and 19th, attracting 100,000 audience. 50,000 people in 1 performance is the largest capacity Tokyo Dome can accomodate, and the sold-out concerts is proof of their unchanged popularity.


[JYJ] will continue their Dome Tour from November into December in major cities Osaka and Fukuoka, and has plan to release their first Japan single in December.

Top K-pop group JYJ plans to release its first single in Japan -- probably during its concert tour there -- according its agency on Tuesday.

“JYJ will meet fans in Japan during its dome concert tour in Tokyo in November and December in Osaka,” CJeS Entertainment said. “Also, it is preparing for its first single release in Japan.”

The agency also said each member will exude unique charms with gorgeous performances in the concerts.

It will be JYJ’s third dome tour in Japan after its concerts in June 2010 and April 2013. With the concert tour, the group will start its activities in Japan in earnest, according to CJeS.
