The Chinese member of Super Junior HanKyung who has been in legal disputes with management SM Entertainment is expected to start his solo activities in China.

According to the Chinese media, Hankyung will be having his first solo concert in Beijing next month. Hankyung is scheduled to have his concert on July 17 and 18 at the Beijing Exhibition Center where the venue has a seating capacity of 2,700 seats and well known celebrities will be appearing on his concert as well.

HanKyung filed a lawsuit against his agency December last year, and after 7 months he is mounting his own activities as a solo singer.

Despite his legal battles not being completely resolved yet, he is expected to start the new wave on his career being a solo singer in China.

Reported by Yangtse News 22 June
Recently, Korea SM Entertainment had stated that: Hangeng’s contract hasn’t yet terminated. Hangeng had accepted reporter’s interview, saying that the contract must be terminated. The attitudes of both sides are so stern that it only increases the tension of the case. People who understands the situation say that, if Hangeng ends his contract with SME, he will need to pay 2 billion won (about RMB 11million 5 hundred 80 thousand)* as a ‘redemption’ fee.

According to some sources, if Hangeng is to work under another company, he needs to pay 3 times the money that SME had used on his training, and 2 times of the relative money loss when he leaves. Hangeng had signed the contract with SME in 2001, and it’s been already nine years now, and only 5 more years till the contract expires. As Hangeng’s popularity had been soaring up high in China these few years, SME had arranged a lot of performance and schedules for him as well as Super Junior, and the fee used now will also be counted on Geng, that’s why Hangeng will need to compensate 2 billion won if he wishes to terminate the contract.

Although the law case with SME is still pending, Hangeng attends a lot of activities in China frequently, and he even sang the promotion song of Asian’s Games and Asian Game’s Voluteers. According to inner news, the price which Hangeng accepts the songs aren’t low, instead, it may even exceed 7 digits. The person also expresses that Hangeng knew he had to compensate a huge amount to SME, so the reason why he had high speculation of the prices every time he attend activities is to pay back the debt to SME.

However, Hangeng (which I will now refer to him as it is his given name) is confident he will win the lawsuit and not have to pay SM a dime. The members wish him the best of luck in his solo career, and in turn he is grateful for everything SM and his member have given him, hoping they can make it to his concert. PLEASE OH PLEASE END ON GOOD TERMS!! 행운을 빕니다! 加油加油加油加油加油!o(∩_∩)o

Hehehehe all of his expressions are so adorable! The MC is asking him what his American name would be (since, I guess, JYJ is recording with American producers). He's like, "...Nande?" Apparently, "Xiah" is unsatisfactory and then he becomes James Bond and shoots the most unbelievably cute "Ehhh?" face ever. The End.

[SS501] HJL donates to a good cause


Other than attending the fan meeting on 18th June and the charity concert on 19th June,
there was actually yet another important item on Kim Hyun Joong's schedule in Manila, Philippines trip from 17th to 20th June, that is to receive the appreciation plaque from Abiertas House of Friendship - the charity organization that is the beneficiary of the concert- and also to visit the children from this organization/school. The organization had prepared it in thanks of his personal contribution of 1,000,000 pesos (approx Chinese yuan 150,000 or USD 22,000).

Kim Hyun Joong has already visited the actual site of Abiertas House of Friendship earlier this year. After seeing the condition of the school and the state that the children were in, he immediately decided to make a personal contribution of 1,000,000 pesos and this amount was transferred sometime in mid May.

The organization had immediately utilized his donation towards building the property for their senior high/college students. In addition, the organization will also name the said property after Kim Hyun Joong.

Further, Kim Hyun Joong had also agreed to participate in the charity concert held on 19th June, in the hope that his influence could raise more awareness and garner more support and help for these less privileged groups in the society, the helpless mothers and children.

As for the actual situation at this school and also of the organization's deep love and appreciation towards Kim Hyun Joong, and also as to what activities Kim Hyun Joong had carried out in the school on that day of visit, I will be giving detailed description in my trip account later, so everyone, please do watch for it.

[Mag] Yunho Interview

From leader of TVXQ to actor Jung Yunho, Uknow Yunho who is gradually getting used to stand alone, now standing in front of Hong Kong's Marie Claire. Although dislike naive idealists, this youth who chose an extraordinary path, still keep on moving forward optimistically without feeling tired.

Even though we can see with our eyes and listen with our ears how popular local artists aboard, but want to experience it practically is still difficult. Although we know the love for TVXQ, as well as Uknow YunHo from Thailand, Hong Kong, Japan and other countries, we cannot estimate to what extent the passionate feelings of fans towards them. Hence, Uknow Yunho who came to Hong Kong for Marie Claire's photoshoot, mobbed by fans since his arrival in airport, that kind of packed scene was beyond imagination.

Thinking of this, I still remember there is an article about their Japanese fans who donated a large sum of money under the name of Uknow Yunho few months ago. There is no harm to take him as a role model who pushed fans culture to positive way. More...

[News][SS501] DSP Statement

Hello this is DSP.

SS501’s promotional activities for ‘LOVE YA’ has had ended its
run last week on the 13th June. Due to this short promotional period,
we know that fans would surely be feeling very overwhelmed with sadness.
SS501 had debuted on June 8, 2005 through KMTV’s Music Bank,
and so soon, it’s already been 5 years that’s flowed by~

SS501’s contract validation period, as all of you should know,
has ended on June 7, 2010.

While preparing for this time’s album and carrying out activities
with every member, we had already carried out discussions with one
another. In consideration of their expiry of contract, we had decided
for their ‘Love Ya’ promotional period to last for only about 2~3 weeks.

May it be SS501 or may it be us, none of us is certain or clear
about the future moves, and because of that,
we’re not able to talk about it officially as of yet,
but once we have decided, we will let all TripleS know.

This time’s DESTINATION album’s song inclusive ‘Let me be the one’
will be made into a music video as a form of their comeback period
‘making’, and it will be ready around mid next week where you could
view it.
For more concrete information, we will post about it again~

To the many TripleS who are feeling very upset about this short
promotional period, we hope that TripleS could feel slightly
less upset after the Let Me Be The One music video is released
as you watch and play it.

Though it’s only been 2 weeks of promotional period, but to our
TripleS who’s given them the biggest accolation — Number 1!!
Thank you for your love and concern towards this DESTINATION album.
In future too, please show your unyielding love no matter what~

Thank you.

I know this letter was meant to comfort Triple S, but it just made me more worried. First of all, it isn't right for an artist to release an mv or an album feeling apologetic toward fans. It says that the artist is going through hard times and isn't happily making music. Plus, fans don't want their artist to feel sorry about falling short. That's the condition under which the "Let Me Be the One" mv is going to be released. I just hope DSP isn't sorry for what they are going to do to SS501. I can't even bring myself to say it. RE-CONTRACT, 제발!!!!!!!

To end on a good note, CONGRATS DOUBLE S FOR #1 ON MUSIC BANK!!!!!

[Live] Ment from Thanksgiving Live

This is a transcript of what is shown during the talks of JUNSU/JEJUNG/YUCHUN THANKSGIVING LIVE IN DOME Digest, which you can watch on Myspace here.

JJ = JeJung
YC = YuChun
JS = JunSu


http://www.twitvid.com/JVLV

JS: It's been a long time since we stood in front of the audience, so of course we're feeling nervous. But… ah… we carry the mix of joy, pressure, worries, and various feelings… We will do our best with our positive feelings so that you will be able to enjoy the stage that we offer. After all, when I stand on the stage and sing… for me, I feel that if I sing, I can keep on living. That is how important the stage is to me. Well, if I can convey something to the fans through our songs, I'll be very happy. Perhaps, for me, well… I think I will be singing until the day I die. If there are people who want to listen to our songs, no matter what condition I am in, I will thrive my very best.

JJ: When it was decided that we would be doing this live, that we would be able to see you all, I was very happy. Regarding to the live this time… well, I want to make it a live not only for the music, but also to exchange our feelings with each other. When the audience be together with us, become one with us, sing with us, laugh with us, cry with us… that moment is really tremendous. [The fans] are not always with us physically, but I feel like they're the ones who are closest to us, the ones who always understand us, who worry the most about us, who support us the most. They have that kind of existence. To me, they are the ones whom I can't live without. That's why, they are precious to me.

YC: If it wasn't for our fans, I wouldn't have loved music this much. It is the uttermost the reason for me to sing. Well, a lot of painful things happened… but thanks to the support of the fans, I received the strength and courage and made it here. Really… (T/N: can't really hear what he says here T_T). The fans… how do I put it… it's hard to put in words how great their love and their big hearts they possess. More and more, I want to try harder at our activities. I want to know, to receive, and to understand the heart and the feeling of everyone. Thank you for waiting for us.


http://www.twitvid.com/SF3VT


JJ: Started in Osaka, today is the last day of our live. From the beginning, we've had a lot of worries, but thanks to all of you, our worries have gone away. From the deepest of our heart, we are very thankful that a lot of you have come to our live.

YC: *Fans cheering* Yesssssss. Eh, thank you very much. Last year... last year when I stood here at Tokyo Dome, I really, really wanted to stand here at Tokyo Dome again to the point that I became worried *Fans cheering* Yes, thank you. But really, thanks to everyone, I'm able to stand here again. Thank you very much. From now on, we'll do our best with various activities so please keep supporting us.

JS: Yes *Fans cheering* That's right. Really, when we decided on our Dome tour, I was very worried. We have 4 lives in Osasa and Tokyo, but to have you all come to to see us at Dome like this, each time still feels like a dream for me. We'll be doing our best not to lose to the love you have for us. *Fans cheering* I'm very happy, thank you.

JJ: Yes. *Fans cheering* Uhm, perhaps, from the time we decided on this live, we thought that, instead of telling about you our sorrows and pains, we came here with the hope to see your smiles. From Osaka to here, there are only 3 of us, but… The things that we couldn't tell you, for example, the pains and the things we suffered up until now, the tears that we've been holding in, we wanted to at least be honest in front of you, really, we want to honestly show you our emotions. But if we do that then you will cry, and when we see your crying faces, we get hurt really much. So we told ourselves so many times not to cry. We told ourselves that, just at this place, we should smile properly and sing and dance with everyone; that if we show you our happy faces, then you will also be happy.

Honestly, this live only lasts 3 hours but we have a lot of things to say. This short amount of time is nothing compared to the time that you've been waiting for us. Although it is short and we can't express much to you, we believe that just by mutual understanding each other and being able to see your smiles, there's a meaning to this live.

Today was very fun. Just like the pure and bright emotions that you have brought here, we also want continue singing together with everyone while carrying along the pure emotions we've been bringing with us since our debut. From now on, and always, please keep supporting us forever. Thank you very much.

This is going to be our last song, and it's a song that contains our feelings. Please listen to it, "W".
