http://m.media.daum.net/m/entertain/newsview/20140922084111858
Idol group JYJ's member Kim Jaejoong revealed his impressions as he continues with group activity
Kim Jaejoong pondered for a minute when he got a question, "How do you feel about your 5-year long group activity as JYJ?" at the pre-concert press conference for JYJ Asia Tour Concert the Return of the King held at Mercedes Benz Arena in Shanghai, China on the 20th. He answered, "I used to worry about my limitations during my former group days(TVXQ). It is different now. "I thought about 'what should I show them next?' and 'What more should I do?' All the time. Now I know that those were useless worries. There is no limit even if I sing the same song at concerts over and over."
He means that he can show totally different sides of him even if he sings the same song repeatedly during the tour. He added, "I blamed myself for the past attitude at times. I feel more grateful toward the members as we continue the group activities, and care for them more. I'm grateful for everything."
JYJ continue their concert the Return of the King on the 25th at the Challenge Hall in Bangkok, Thailand.

The result of the selection from South Korean film entries for the Foreign Film category of the 87th Academy Awards
We offer
our gratitude at each film production that was supported in the
evaluation of the selection from South Korean film entries for the
Foreign Film category of the 87th Academy Awards, and are announcing the
result of the selection as follows.
1. Film selection: <Sea Fog> (director: Shim Sung-bo, production company: Haemoo Co., Ltd)
2. General review of the evaluation
Commentary on the selection from South Korean film entries for the 2014 Academy Awards
The pieces of works –entered for the
selection of the nominated film for the Foreign Film category of Academy
Awards– were colorful movies, respectively. It was not easy to choose a
work that was a choice among the 10 choices entered as the movie –by
representative investment distribution companies domestically– that will
represent South Korea.
Among them, the interests of the
examiners collected approximately 4~5 choices that were hit movies.
<Sea Fog>, <A Hard Day>, <A Girl at My Door>, and
<Han Gong-ju> were the movies recommended as well-made piece of
works by the examiners to potentially be awarded. [...]
However, the piece of work finally
selected by the examiners was <Sea Fog>. It was well-received by
local audiences who were invited to the Gala Presentation in the Toronto
International Film Festival that is also known as the election for the
Academy Awards; and in addition, the produced movie –that was inspired
by a true story– got big marks in points that may play as major factors
in grabbing Academy members’ attentions.
South Korean films so far have not made
it even in the reserved nominees for 9 choices, far from a nominee for
the 5 choices for an Oscar in the Foreign Film category. Although
sweeping leading European film festivals, like the Cannes, Venice, and
Berlin [Film Festivals]; how come we never had only an Oscar, for some
reason. Considering such a question, we tried to choose a movie that can
appeal to the Academy members, as the nominated film; rather than pick
according to each personal preference and expertise of domestic
examiners.
Lastly, we hope for policy consideration
and further active support toward the nomination, as well as a potential
winner, for an Oscar in the Foreign Film category.
All of the examiners to the South Korean film entries for the Foreign Film category of the 2015 Academy awards ceremony

JYJ has broken through the standard ‘idol’ mould and has set itself apart as a trio of artists, with members Jaejoong, Yoochun and Junsu
often composing their own songs and penning down their own lyrics. If
you, like me, love to introduce your non-K-pop loving friends to K-pop,
the following JYJ songs might be a good place to start.
1. Creation
2. In Heaven
3. Be My Girl
4. Dad, You There?
5. Nine
6. Pierrot
And last but certainly not least:
7. Back Seat

[PIC+TRANS] 140916 Taiwan Newspaper : JYJ’s Interview with MTV Taiwan’s “I Love Idols – Idols of Asia”
*
JYJ
Members do not contact each other in private, leaving group chat one by one.
Members do not contact each other in private, leaving group chat one by one.
Korean group JYJ was caught in an
embarrassing situation with the Taiwanese media a few days earlier
[2014.09.11], when the arrangement for media photo shoots evoked
dispute. However, when they were on MTV’s show ‘I Love Idols’, they
showed their amicability by answering every question. When discussing
about clothing and how they dress themselves, Kim Junsu and Kim JaeJoong
revealed that they used to get clothes to go with the styles they had
in their albums but now they go for comfort. Park Yuchun, on the other
hand, has a thing for sandals. He said, ‘I’m fine as long as I have
sandals on. I don’t like to stand in front of the shoe cabinet for a
long time. I’m fine as long as I have something on that I can go out at
once. So even in winter, when I wear scarves and coats, I still wear
sandals out.’
Members have individual activities in
different fields. Will they contact each other in private? Unexpectedly,
Park Yuchun and Kim JaeJoong stood with each other on this issue. They
both disclosed that Kim Junsu has been too busy to pay attention to
them. Park Yuchun said, ‘I really want to stay in contact with Junsu. I
really think highly of him.’ Kim JaeJoong also said, ‘I also really want
Junsu to contact me.’ Kim Junsu strike back by saying, ‘You can always
contact me.’ Kim JaeJoong once invited the members to create a group
chat on instant messaging app and Park Yuchun revealed that Kim Junsu
was the first to leave the group chat, ‘JaeJoong then left too, leaving
me there.’
As to who is the most fun among them
three? Kim Junsu pointed towards Kim JaeJoong, ‘He’s the funniest among
our members.’ Kim JaeJoong replied, ‘I’m the kind of person who tried
hard to make fun but Yuchun is effortlessly funny.’

Fans Open Up Another JYJ Park Yoo Chun Library
Fans of JYJ′s Park Yoo Chun have opened up a second library.
In celebration of the fourth year of Park Yoo Chun′s fan community, ′Blessing Yu Chun,′ fans gathered together to participate in this good deed.
Established in September of 2010, ′Blessing Yu Chun,′ a fan community consisting of fans in their 30s, has been continuously volunteering and doing good works to support its star.
Four years ago, the fan community began by donating 10,000,000 won to Park Hyun Bin, a burned victim, for surgery, before continuing with helping children suffering from cancer, low income families by providing food and heating bills, child community centers with free lunch fees, the elderly by donating brisquette coals and more.
In 2013, the members of ′Blessing Yu Chun′ donated 5,000,000 won to children of multicultural families in Sinan, as well as created the ′1st Park Yoo Chun Library′ with 8,800 books.
Without fail, in time for its fourth anniversary, the members donated 10,000 won and 6,600 books in Heuksando of the Sinan area to create the ′2nd Park Yoo Chul Library." The library will be used diversely in Heuksando.
The library will be used as a place to read books, study, and even a home theater with a beam projector for the children, who are growing up without movie theaters.
For the past four years, ′Blessing Yu Chun′ members have donated about 150 million won to help the needy. Using their love for a star to do good, the members have become the model example of fan culture. More than anything, the group has constantly interest and relationships with the people they′ve once worked with, continuing good deeds throughout.
Meanwhile, Park Yoo Chun is currently on the 2014 JYJ Asia Tour ′The Return of the King and will hold the seventh concert on the tour on September 20 in Shanghai.

The idol group is currently on a concert tour of Asia, following the release of its second studio album, “Just Us,” on July 29.
This year’s “Gangnam Festival,” which involves various cultural events ranging from hallyu-themed concerts and an international marathon to a food fair, runs from Oct. 2-5, the office said. K-pop stars such as Rain, Girls’ Generation, Super Junior and TVXQ have appeared in previous festivals.

HaeMoo Reviews/Reactions from the recently concluded TIFF...
Haemoo - 9/10
A fishing boat crew on its last legs are forced to take up a human smuggling job. Absolutely fantastic, my favorite film of TIFF. The intensity throughout the entire film is incredibly well-done as is the portrayal of the descents of all the characters. I was iffy on a romantic subplot that is introduced at the beginning of the film but it becomes part of the foundation that holds the entire film up. Once the second act of the film starts up, it never really slows down. This film is packed with incredibly uncomfortable but powerful scenes and there were noticeable gasps in my audience throughout most of the final two acts of the film. The camera is shaky, the score is great, the scenes look beautiful. I loved, loved, loved, loved this movie. My only complaint is the ending which I thought could’ve been cut out entirely but it didn’t really hurt the film much.

TIFF 2014 Review
[Lewis Pictures; 2014] Director: Shim Sung-BoRuntime: 111 minutes
Written by John Fink, September 15, 2014 at 10:15 am
Haemoo is an effective moral thriller that immediately mirrors the best work of its co-writer and producer Bong Joon-ho. What starts as slow and straight-forward goes south quickly, raising the stakes drastically as difficult decisions are made — first for profit, and secondly for survival. Opening with a near-fatal, yet tone-setting accident on a fishing boat, Kang (Kim Yoon-seok) is a captain in a very difficult position. After a series of bad luck and poor financial decisions he finds himself over extended, unable to secure a bank loan to sail the ship as a legitimate cargo operation. Turning to the mob, Kang quickly finds himself in a moral dilemma: rather than leave his crew high and dry he reluctantly agrees to smuggle a group of Koreans leaving China with the promise of asylum in South Korea.
Treating his new occupants like cargo leads to inherent conflicts, including the most disturbing strand of the story when a freon leak provides disastrous consequences. At the heart of the moral delema is our hero Dong-sik (Park Yu-chun), a young sailor learning the ropes. He’s fallen for a pretty young immigrant Hong-mae (Han Ye-ri) and has already landed on the boss’ radar. At port he’s told to go get a room because doing their business on the boat is considered bad luck. Foreshadowing, check.
Mirroring Bong Joon-ho’s latest feature Snowpiercer, Haemoo manages to be an effective thriller as well as a socially conscious heritage film. Set in 1998 amongst an IMF crisis fueling the need for cheap labor, it is ripe for additional commentary. Directed by first-time filmmaker (and Bong collaborator, having co-written Memories of Murder) Shim Sung-bo, the thriller elements simply deliver. What starts as an atmospheric maritime drama commenting on social class amongst the seaman (and their cargo) grows ugly. When their cargo expires, the crew is commanded to embark on the ugly business of disposing bodies and possessions. Along the way there are tense moments, disagreements and discussions, while all the while we genuinely care about Dong-sik and Hong-mae as innocent bystanders.
Both atmospheric (its title in English is translated to Sea Fog) and claustrophobic, the thriller is expertly lensed by cinematographer Hong Kyung-pyo (Mother, Snowpiercer) and tensely paced by editors Kim Sang-bum and Kim Jae-bum.
The influence of Bong is apparent throughout the film, yet Shim’s
direction is top notch and a text book example of misdirection. While
the film’s first act never quite lets on just how horrific things will
get as the captain (and crew) go down with the ship, Shim’s direction
grows more confident as he expertly delivers genre thrills and moral
dilemmas. While it flounders a bit early on, Haemoo evolves
into an exceptional thriller while Park and Han create memorable
characters going above and beyond their role: they think, feel and fight
back.
