']]}[News] Chinese Fans Response To Cancellation Of Concert *updated with part 2*
(part 1)〓Our Attitude〓
This morning we received news about the cancellation of the Shenzhen concert. Considering the court dispute at the moment, this wasn't a decision not thought of.
We cannot say "everyone please calm down, please don't say anything bad", because that isn't facing the truth. However, we hope no one says anything that would hurt the members of TVXQ, doing something that shows you don't understand the five members. The people we love, they did not do anything wrong. I hope everyone sees and clearly understands this point.
The Shenzhen concert was decided upon by SME and the organiser after the three members proposed the lawsuit. If everything was normal, activities organised for the artist by the company acceptable, but no matter when, it needs to respect the artists wills and thoughts. Artists are not tools, they are human too. SME had secretly accepted the offer of overseas activities without discussing the details with the five members, this action is not respectful to the five members of TVXQ.
At the same time, because of the decision between SME and the Chinese concert organiser, it has led to losses for the fans, and this is not forgivable. Because of SME's own decision that led to economic and psychological losses of Chinese and overseas fans, we should receive a proper explanation and compensation.
Since the start of the lawsuit, SME had pushed all the blame upon the members, using unrelated topics to cover the real problem, making all of TVXQ's fans feel very disappointed and angry. Being Korea's top agency, not respecting group members, ignoring fans reasonable requests, and during the lawsuit which started as a simple issue that could of ended well, but didn't because of the various disruptions and accusations created against the three members. This issue not only led to the five members of TVXQ go under stress and pain, but it also led fans to fall into despair, to the point where the fans split. Actions like these make people 'angry'. [T/N im guessing the meaning of it, it was a saying >_<]
For this times Shenzhen concert, SME again pushes the blame towards the members, making us fans feel very disappointed and angry, we do not hold anymore trust or hope towards SME. It is not the members fault, yet they have them to shoulder the responsibility, letting them face criticisms, this is what the company that brought them up do. This is unacceptable.
We cannot represent everyone, but representing all the fans supportive of TVXQ from Baidu, we cannot forgive SME's continual injuries and stress given to the three members. The cancellation of the Shenzhen concert is all because of SME's contract signed with the organiser, without consulting the members, it has no relation to any of the TVXQ members. SME, please stop bringing out all these rumours, which end up hurting the members and splitting the fans.
On another note, we feel dissatisfied with the Chinese organiser of the Shenzhen concert due to their signed documents lying to the fans. Even if we understand that the project needs to have communication with SME, but to make an irresponsible promise with the fans, they too have an undeniable responsibility.
〓Words to everyone〓
First of all, what we want to say most to everyone is - please understand our boys. Following them for nearly six years, we have seen them fulfill their promises bit by bit, watching them carry through with the stress and exhaustion at 1002 in Shanghai moved us, seeing them work so hard up till now, working their best till now. If you truly love them, then you cannot ignore their pure feelings towards their fans. The five members treasure their fans a lot, and this doesn't need to be judged by others, but it is to be embedded deep in our own hearts.
Therefore, please do not say anything that will hurt them, don't say anything about not understanding them. Their intention, their pressure, their pains, only we understand the best.
We don't hope to see any fans of one member give stress to the other members at this time, we hope even more so to not see fans hurting each other. That would be a very immature attitude to have at this time. It is not any of the members wrong, so please do not bother them, don't let them feel wronged. Everyone please, no matter if you're a fan of the group or just one member, look at the result of truth and false being mixed together, don't hide away because you'll get hurt, because it's hurting your own family, hurting the members of TVXQ.
On the topic of the Shenzhen concert, our boys have taken in a lot of fault, and in this situation with the court case not being solved, SM has continuously given pressure to the members, hurting them and splitting the fans. If you force them to Shenzhen, then who would be happy? Seeing them smile to us with that exhaustion, will we feel happy? The amount of pressure they take up, is unimaginable by us. The five now are under a lot of hardship, yet they haven't given up, they keep on persisting, and it's because of the four words "TVXQ". If you see this, if you truly love them or just one, if you see someone you love and see them being hurt in silence, they rather stand in between the speculations and the low people, you will not not understand, what they do that for. [T/N TBH, i didn't really get that last line.. >_<]
So under these circumstances, please stand together with them, everyone please give them all your love and support. Us, that's all we've been doing since.
I believe that many of the bars(on baidu) have seen our drafts for support for the Shenzhen concert, the bar has worked very hard for this. Cheering items have been made, backstage and basic items have also been purchased. Under this situation, to us, it's also a really great hit. But right now, we must stay strong to protect our boys, and not let the innocent be harmed by rumours, this is both unfair to them and us.
This time the bar has decided on the main theme to be "Stand By You", no matter if the concert is opening or not, please come with us to fulfill our promises. No matter what happens, we believe them and stand by them.

']]}[news] ~~True Story about SS501 Leader Kim Hyun Joong~~
OMG!!!! Leader Kim Hyun Joong always beeing pretty handsome! and who would have thought that he had intially started out as bassist in a rock band? Hard to believe it. On the MBC program “The Star Secret,” footage of his 2003 youth band performing at a festival celebration will be revealed for the very first time.
Back in the day, this rock group had established themselves so well that the members were invited to perform at various competitions and festivals around their area. The leader of the band was interviewed and fondly recalled how Kim Hyun Joong’s charms and music abilities were well beyond his years. The guitarist of another rock band, N.E.X.T., also praised the idol for his natural and confident performance abilities on stage, proving that he was a man of endless potential.
The program lasts 30 minutes, but you will feel that is 3 minutes haha, 30 minutes is too little to talk about him!!

']]}[news] 2PM Attends Samsung Corby Launch & Reveals New CF
It was not too long ago that 2PM revealed their breathtaking CF for Market O Real Brownie and they are at it again. The group recently attended the launch for Samsung Corby on November 12th and also revealed their new CF.
They did not show up dressed in neon clothing, although Taecyeon probably would not have minded. The group was wearing the same dark spotted outfit they wore for their comeback stage. Go ahead and check out the CF along with the guys at the event.
What did you think? It was a pretty interesting concept with bright colors to resemble the phones. The pink kept reminding me of Jaebeom because it is basically his signature color. Overall, does it make you want to buy a new Samsung Corby?

']]}[news] Exclusive interview with SS501: unafraid of the ups-and-downs, we’ll go on with our unique points
On the afternoon of the 12th of November, SS501 appeared together as one in Shanghai, in preparation of their concert in Hongkou Soccer Stadium on the 14th. After the official news conference, SS501 accepted an exclusive interview with Sohu. Five years after their debut, the five members have matured, but it is evident that they are still as playful as ever, seen through their antics during the interview itself.
SOHU: First, say hi to your fans in China via the cameras of Sohu!
SS501: (As one) Hi everyone, we’re SS501!
Jungmin: I’m Jungmin (Smiles and waves) Hello~
Hyungjoon: (Snatches the mic) I’m Hyungjoon. (Waves)
Hyunjoong: I’m Hyunjoong (Waves)
Youngsaeng: Hello everyone, I’m Youngsaeng
Kyujong: I’m Kyujong, hello!
SOHU: This is the second time that you guys are holding a concert in China. Compared to the first time, how does it feel? And are there any special wishes you guys have for the upcoming concert as well?
Hyunjoong: This time we’re going to compensate our fans, by showing them what we could not last time. Plus, this will be the first time we’re holding an outdoor concert, so please support us with your greatest passion.
SOHU: Your newly released mini album REBIRTH has had good results in Korea, congratulations. Fans are very concerned about the next studio album, when will it be planned for release?
Hyunjoong: We too hope for it to be released soon, and in order to let it be fulfilled we’ll work even harder. (Other four members clap)
SOHU: Do you have any hopes of getting awards at the year-end award ceremonies? Currently, SS501 ranks first for the Overseas Popularity Award on the MAMA website, how do you guys feel about that?
Jungmin: Ah, because this award is based on votes by the fans, and it also is about popularity overseas, I believe that our Chinese fans have contributed a lot to the results so thank you. Please continue supporting us, and of course, our newest mini album REBIRTH as well!
SOHU: Now that the members have started to try out lyrics writing and song composing, have you guys ever thought of releasing an album that is fully produced by the group?
Hyungjoon: Up til now, all of us have had the experience of writing our own songs. This time in REBIRTH, the five of us have also written a set of lyrics specially for our fans. So you never know, our next album might just be full of songs by us; lyrics, melody and all. We are singer, song writer, SS501! (SS501 is pronounced in a Chinese accent, and Jungmin laughs non-stop at the side)
SOHU: It’s been five years since your debut, what has been the biggest gain and losses so far?
Hyunjoong: Five years isn’t a long period of time, but neither is it a short period of time. In this timespan, we’ve had many international and Korean fans, and our popularity has been “up~down~up~”, that kinda thing. All of this is actually rather interesting, because until now, SS501 finally has its own colour and specialties. From now on, we’ll repay everyone with music that has the colour of SS501.
SOHU: Then what plans are in store for the next five years?
Youngsaeng: I think that five years down the road, SS501 will still be making music together, and show more individual charisma via different individual activities. And I think that us then will still be the same, we’ll keep walking on in our present state. (Everyone claps)
SOHU: Even though leader has reverted from “Yoon Jihoo” back to “Kim Hyunjoong”, will SS501, and not only just leader, attempt to do dramas if good productions come knocking? Also, what kind of roles do the members want to try their hands at?
Kyujong: The five of us have actually been preparing , Jungmin has honed his acting skills via his musical, and Hyungjoon’s drama will be broadcasted soon. The five of us concentrate fully on our individual activities, and Hyunjoong-hyung should have new dramas soon. So please do not just support our music projects, but also give your support to our other activities such as acting, DJ-ing and hosting.
(Kyujong passes the mic to Youngsaeng: “What role does Youngsaeng-goon want to try out the most?”)
Youngsaeng: I’m ok with any role, (Kyujong imitates a boxer at the side), the character that Hyunjoong plays in Boys Over Flowers is a role I’d like to try out too.
SOHU: Holding your concert at the same time as your Korean activities, will you guys be able to handle it?
Hyunjoong: Our group’s herbivourous guy, the person who is most concerned about his health, will answer the question: Jungmin.
Jungmin: The members have been consistent in maintaining our energy levels. Like me, I’ll eat all kinds of ginseng in order to replenish my energy. And in my opinion, your attitude is the most important when you face jobs of high stress levels. One should not accumulate too much stress, that isn’t good for your health… (Suddenly shouts at the other members) YOU’RE TOO NOISY!! (Turns back to the camera and smiles) This helps in distressing too!
(Hyungjoon is stunned because of the sudden shout; Hyunjoong passes the mic to him)
Hyungjoon: Let’s hurry on to the next question.
SOHU: What other activities are planned for now?
(Hyungjoon passes the mic to Hyunjoong, but both Hyunjoong and Jungmin are adamant that Hyungjoon answer the question. A friendly round of mic passing soon begins)
Hyungjoon: We’ll continue to work hard, and after a year and seven months; the five of us will once again commence on our group activities up til the end of the year, along with our Asia tour. We’ll face everyone with our best sides, and we wish that everyone will support REBIRTH, our newest mini album. SS501~ (Everyone claps)
SOHU: Finally, please say a few words to your fans in China!
(Jungmin snatches the mic)
Jungmin: 朋友，帮帮我？帮帮忙! Friend, help me? Help me!! (Unsure of his pronounciation, he looks to the translator for help)
Hyungjoon: Thank you!
Hyunjoong: Hi everyone! (He’s speaking in Shanghainese)
Youngsaeng: I love you~
Kyujong: No problem~ (Laughs non-stop)
Video will be out later, according to Sohu

']]}[news] YG explains 'reverse' promo for Taeyang's album
YG Entertainment explained its recent 'reverse' strategy for promoting Big Bang member Taeyang's new album, saying it is aimed at prolonging the singer's activities for his new solo album for as long as possible.
Taeyang released digital single "Where U At" from his upcoming first regular album in mid-October and will promote "Wedding Dress", released today, till the end of the year, but neither songs are the title track for the album.
"It has become more difficult for singers to promote tracks on their album other than their title song these days with the entire record being released online and people's listening patterns changing rapidly," Yang Hyun-suk, founder of YG and also producer of the singer, wrote on his agency's official website on Thursday.
"Taeyang had requested he be able to promote his album for as long as he can so that was our focus this time," said Yang.
The producer went onto explain that his agency therefore decided to carry out "reverse promotion" -- promoting songs apart from the title song first, and then unveiling the title song along with the entire album.
Taeyang was the first Big Bang member to debut as a solo artist, releasing his first mini-album "HOT" in May 2008 which produced two hit singles titled "Prayer" and "Look Only at Me".
His recent digital single "Where U At" peaked at No. 6 on Korea's Mnet Singles Chart last month and his full-length album is set for release early next year.

']]}[news] Interview with 2PM fancafe core member, stance on Golden Fishery statements
After JYP appeared on the show 'Golden Fishery,' 2PM fans have been flocking to the show's board and are pressuring JYP with statements such as "Immediately stop using Jaebum as a marketing tool."
A core member of the '2PM Fan Cafe' agreed to a phone interview with us on the 12th in an effort to express the viewpoint and feelings of the fans after the statements JYP made on Golden Fishery.
She did not hesitate to express her disappointment, starting with "I saw the broadcast, but I immediately regretted seeing it. I thought that it was so like JYP. There's a big difference between what regular people view JYP as and what fans view him as. Others see him as successful with great corporate skills. We admit that. But fans do not accept JYP in any way.
There is no difference between what he said on air and what he said through official statements months ago. It is merely a voiced version of those articles. JYP made the fans out to be little brats that are whining for Jaebum's immediate return. He placed the blame on Jaebum and placed great pressure on the fans to leave him alone and stop our boycotts. Basically, he pushed the blame on to someone else.
There are fans that have given up and have began supporting 6PM after the broadcast. But instead of trusting JYP, they are attempting to give him a chance because at this point, JYP is the only person holding the key to Jaebum's return.
Furthermore, JYP is ignoring the efforts of the fans. When Jaebum's controversy first exploded, we as fans attempted to fix it by spreading the fact that there were translation errors. We also participated in various charities such as blood donations, donations for the youth, books... We attempted to find forgiveness for Jaebum through these actions.
In order to help Jaebum feel more at ease, we sent more than thousands of hand written letters with thousands of folded paper roses with thousands of post its with thousands of UCC messages. What fans want now is not Jaebum's return. What we want is an official statement that clearly takes back Jaebum's withdrawal from the group and the promise that his spot as the leader will be left in tact. Even if Jaebum does not immediately return, the fact that his spot remains open will be of great assurance to the fans.
What we want especially is not leaving little comments on shows such as 'Golden Fishery' but an official press conference that states these things. Then the boycott will cease. Should JYP continue to ignore the fans and use Jaebum as his marketing tool, the boycott will never stop."
