Jaejoong's last speech

from Thanksgiving Live Tokyo Dome, Day 2

I think most probably, by the moment all of you decided to come to this live concert, rather than wanted to listen to our sorrowful, regretful stories, the more is because of wanted to see our smile, that brought you guys here.

The first day in Kyocera Dome, in the end there were only three people standing on stage... Frankly speaking, (everyone) comes here not because want to listen, want to question those answers that can't be uttered even until now, and not because want to see those tears that have been restrained for long to bear against the pain and sadness, isn't it?

(In Osaka) when we released all our feelings, looking from here (the stage), saw everyone's face covered with tears, was too depressing...... 'I shouldn't have cried in front of everyone' that's what I was thinking.

I think, seeing us on this stage singing, dancing, enjoying ourselves (rather than letting you guys witness our tears, listening to our painful stories), can bring more happiness to everyone.

Even though we can only meet each others eyes, even though (we) can only see (each others)smile, for me this live concert is meaningful.

With my heart as pure as the smile on everyone's face, from now onwards (I) want to sing continuously, walking down this path with everyone continuously.

[Drama] Sunao ni Narenakute

I watched the first two episodes of Sunao ni Narenakute (Fuji TV, 2010) in one go. The story caught me off guard; I didn't expect it to be this good. I've been putting off this drama because it's a Japanese romantic drama (always frustrating and sometimes with stiff acting), and I'm already in the process of watching:
Fated to Love You - I'm sooo involved
Autumn's Concerto - waiting for it to get good like everyone said it would
Yamato Nadeshiko Shichi Henge - lolz and boys
Seito Shokun! - probably will drop
Atashinchi no Danshi - also might drop
Kimi ga Ireba~Beautiful Love~ because of Yoochun, it's only a miniseries
Real Clothes - it's inspiring, and I root for the girl
Lovers in Paris - ugh I'm at the very end, but can't finish
Gourmet - just started
Coffee House - next on my hitlist
Personal Taste - b/c maybe Lee Minho is a good actor, even if I couldn't make myself watch BOF 
and Supernatural - b/c my best friend is obsessed

BUT ZOMG. It's really good from the first second on! continued--

This pic is from U-Kiss's first concert in the Philippines. I seriously need to visit the Motherland just to get tickets to see all the K-pop stars that promote there.

[News][Super Junior] Hankyung v. SME

On 13 June 2010, Korea SME sternly responded the case of Hangeng, which many people thinks that the lawsuit as came to an end. SME stated that: Contract of Hangeng has not yet been terminated, he’s still under SME. All the activities of Hangeng had to yet undergo SME’s permission and authorization.

The case of Hangeng’s contract termination had caused a big chaos in the entertainment industry. Ever since the commotion settled a bit, Hangeng’s whereabouts has always been secret. After making a quick appearance in America, there had been rumors saying that he is leaving the group and planning to establish a dancing studio with Jay Chou. Moreover, fans had been debating over Hangeng’s case, spreading the news of the unfair treatments provided by SME to Geng, as well as analyzing the future routes of Hangeng, stating that the fans will support him forever.

The response given out by SME today was very stern, stating that Hangeng isn’t freed yet. Undoubtedly, this will be like throwing a heavy bomb to the contract incident, pulling Hangeng, who has been facing lots of uncertainties, back to the whirlpool of chaos. However, Hangeng does not agree with his company, saying that “it’s usual to see K-pop entertainers terminating contract with their companies, if it’s for those who plan to work on his own, it’s really okay.

[FanCam][Concert] Jaejoongie ♥_♥

Idk, for some reason Jae looks very attractive to me in this fancam from Thanksgiving Live Tokyo Dome, Day 2. I think it's the combination of the white button-up shirt and black pants, coupled with his gorgeous looks which I've been taking for granted recently and seemingly increase in J-pop starry-ness. Anywho, don't the dancing kids look so adorable? Ah, so lucky!

[FanAccount][Concert] Thanksgiving Live Tokyo Dome, Day 2

 

June 13, 2010

Part 1:

So I am back... Don't really know where should I start from.

Let's begin with the most heartbroken part... Weeping

At that time, I didn't cry, because I wanted to remember every single
thing, watching all of it... Jotting them down, telling everyone.

During the MC part in the middle (of the performances), when speaking
out his mind, Junsu looked like he was going to cry, but after saying
'first day we cried... then second day also... However, because it is
today, because it is right here, therefore we are not going to cry. We
wanted to spend our time together with everyone with our smile till
the very end.'
At this moment, (we can see)Junsu in the big screen was trying hard to
hold back his tears. Micky seems calm though. Jejung... hmm... still
looking fine at this point, still smiling.

They didn't cry, that's what I was thinking. I can go back and tell
everyone that tonight they didn't cry!

Yet... (They were) still crying in the end... at the very last
moment... when they thanked everyone...
To raise up the hand for the final time, bowing to everyone... (He)
cried... raised his head... covered his mouth with his hand, while
saying sorry he ran to backstage.
That cry... was vigorously... because all of us can hear it clearly...
it was loud... rushing to the backstage... the cameraman followed...
thanks to the cameraman... (all of us)saw it... Junsu who was
following at the back, was crying out loud too, but was not as intense
as Jejung... Micky didn't cry. We saw it clearly, he was the last one
who ran back to backstage.

Part 2:
Ok, let's start from the opening... Micky didn't cry till the end...
However at the opening... there was tears rolling down his cheeks, but
he didn't cry... only tearing...

Performance had started, very... hmm... I couldn't recall how does the
opening looks like right now, three of them, in white, singing the
songs that I was not familiar with. I wasn't sure what's my feelings
at that moment, able to meet them finally, that was great... so I
smiled. But deep inside my heart, and I didn't know why... tears kept
rolling down, unstoppable...

I am going to write down what I remembered first. The sequence... I
really can't put them in line now.

Since there were sentimental songs at the beginning, my heart was aching.
At last when reaching Micky's turn to sing 'Love is so beautiful'
everyone becomes energetic again.
Everyone was singing and jumping, whoa...

By the way, in this last performance, three of them had added a lot of
new things...
However I... once again... saw the reflection of 4th Live Tour...

(T/N: Part 1 and Part 2 are from the same author.)

My babies~~
This breaks my heart...it hurts so much.

There's a saying: Being loved gives you strength; loving someone gives you courage. I know that the members love each other and love everyone that supports them- family, friends, staff, and fans. They love performing, love making people happy. This love gives them the courage to stand on stage now in a time of great trial. So let's give them our strength, ne?

And above all...continue praying for them.

Part 3:
Actually, during this last performance, the more reflection I could sense from it... the more loneliness I was experiencing.

During the MC part... during the performance...

Oh yea
Junsu's solo... I couldn't even recall the title of the song right now...
The last shot...... was Yunho's solo move...
Which was insanely the same...

Now let's start to talk about the happy moments
That's because (we are) really happy~ everyone was happy

Except the later heartbreaking part...... Micky's solo

Part 4:
Everyone knows about Micky's solo right...
He said that recently he wants to have girlfriend...

I think I can remember this vividly for the rest of my life.
My terrible miserable mourning... even the lady sat beside me had to pat my head and said... That's alright... Don't be too sad....

But... That was the moment when I shed my tears the most during the entire performance -- (Omg...)Everyone can despise me for that~~~~~~~~~~

(I am) going to tell everyone in detail about this heartbreaking moment.

Part 5:
Found it!!!!!!!!!!- -

'The one who is wearing dress ^with white cotton jacket^ at the front row~'
After saying that, this gentleman just walked away, to the main stage, as if the emperor after selecting his concubine...

The staff invited that little girl, and led her to the stage.
That gentleman was walking on stage, and that little girl was walking down there... they walked equally fast... only one was up there and the other one was down...

Walking till the stairs
He walked in front of that little girl

'This way please~'
He brought her to the stage...

'What's your name?'
'My name is XX Miki'
'Miki???'
'Enn... miki'
'I am also Micky'
'Enn'
'Today is double miki??'

Everyone on the spot going 'aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa~'

'Where do you come from?'
'Gunma Prefecture'
'Whoa! That's far, you come here from that far?...'

At this moment... heartbroken, I shouted with all my strength--I am from China!!!!!! China!!!!!!! CHINA!!!!!!!!!! CHINA!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I CHINAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The fans beside me were shocked... asked me... really from China? I nodded my head...
And once again turn to the main stage and shouted.... I AM FROM CHINNNNNNNAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

'En... Then how old are you?'
(Maybe there are people who doesn't know yet... the girlfriends in the 1st 3 performances, there are 2 girls in 15 years old... and the other one is a 16 years old girl, well what will be the answer for today's main female lead?~~~)

'15'

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa~~~~ the entire dome...
'See? My sense is still quite accurate, isn't it..~'
Then he made a very annoying face--

'In that case... I am so sorry'
And started to sing 'that' song to his girlfriend...
holding her little hand, leading her to the sofa, letting her sat on the sofa^ and then walked to her back... hugged her while singing.

Turn in front the sofa, tidied up his clothes... sat down together with her...
Put his hand on her shoulder... sang to her...

(At that moment... I was shrieking miserably.... shouting... completely out of control....)

(He) hold her hand again... walked to the wooden chair... let her sit down...
'Please wait for me for a second~
(I wanted to die at that moment - -)

After a while... as expected... holding a bouquet in his hand, and gave it to her...
Pulled her up... hugged her...

I totally had no idea how did the girl go down stage after that...
Because at that moment I really thought that I was dead - -
Not sure whether I was falling forward, or backward when I lost my consciousness...

Aww, this girl (Wenjun is it?) is so sweet. She wants to be Micky's girlfriend keke~ 

Part 6:
(few parts omitted)

Dunno since when, three of them put on the sunglasses they wore before in 3rd Japanese Live Tour...

That's obviously they wanna act cool...
Three of them wore in white, with sunglasses...
Then slowly... in slow motion...
Took the glasses down...... hold them in hand...... then put inside the pocket in front of their chests...
At this moment...

'Dang~'
Three of them... did an... unbelievable action...

This was only can be found in the final concert... heard that it was Jejung's idea
In their standing position: Junsu, Jejung and Yuchun
Junsu and Yuchun were both lifting one of their heels up~ put their hands under their chins, and made a flower shape...
After that tilted their heads a bit~ Their expressions were too adorable............

I fell to the ground right away...

But Jejung didn't do as promised... - -
Yuchun and Junsu were tricked... hahaha~

At last (they) decided to do it once again...
Jejung still didn't pose in that way- - but did a very ugly pose...

AHAHA THAT'S BECAUSE JJ DOESN'T DO CHEAP AEGYO!!

Part 7:

(few parts omitted)

When Junsu was performing his new song...
I couldn't believe...... that...... I can see him performing live in front of me during my lifetime......
That's what we call sexy~
Twisting and twisting...
While (he) was twisting his body, everyone was shrieking and nose bleeding...

Later on the other two came on stage as back up dancers. Then unexpectedly~ they just jump down and disappeared!
They really jump down! I was startled... that stage... wasn't it a bit too high?

The last dance moves on the floor- -
You will know it When you watched the DVD~ Hahaha~
(Junsu) felt embarrassed in the end of the dance, so while he was twisting his body he was smirking to himself~
Since it could be seen clearly through the large screen~ So... everyone was going crazy!
 
Part 8:

(few parts ommitted)

COLORS~ Melody and Harmony
When they were singing this song... I was also singing along... loudly

I didn't care whether there were people staring at me... I just wanna sing out LOUD...

When reaching the lalalalala part- - my voice already became hoarse.....
Even my voice became hoarse I still wanna sing!!!!!! If couldn't sing then just SHOUT!

One of them asked that in the middle of the song...
'Everyone still can remember this song?'

=REMEMBERRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!=
I shouted until my lungs were going to burst- -

'This time everyone know how to sing?'

=YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!=
I can feel my lungs reached my throat- -

'Then let us sing together~ 1 2~ lalalalalalalala~~~'
=LALALALALALALALALALALALALALALALALALALLALALALALALALALALALALALALALALALALA!!!!!=

I suppose my lungs had exploded at that time.
Please forgive me, my eyes all fixed on him.
Seeing him looking at us... His expression... as if recalling some memories, as if enjoying the moment... with the smile on his face... staring at us...

This time the chorus part was long... and kept on repeating...
Repeated again and again
At the risk of losing my lungs... I still forcing my voice out... LALALALALALALALALALALA

Part 9:
During the MC time, they showed VR with part of Yuchun's Beautiful Love and Jejung's Sunao ni Narenakute...
After the VR ended, Yuchun and Jejung said, Junsu also had a VR of his Mozart musical concert~

Junsu:
'That's right That's right! I already prepared it!
Okie now let us look at the big screen~~~~~~'

.............
.........................
..................................
(Entire Dome was quiet for almost 10 seconds, I was still staring at the big black screen- -)


Junsu:
'Ah... I am sorry, I not yet prepared VR of my Mozart musical concert...'
'Actually before this, when there was no VR prepared for my Mozart concert, I was thinking, it doesn't matter. Maybe there will be one in finale as a surprise for me.
I thought the staff will prepared it, but there's none for real.....'

Jejung patted him on the back and said:
'Never mind never mind, although there are only VR for 2 of us this time, next time! During the next live tour, for sure your VR will be shown up there.'

(At that moment, everyone inside the Dome was stunned... next time... next live tour!!!)

Yuchun and Junsu look like they were shocked... their facial expression was a bit... stiff... looking at Jejung
Noticing their reaction, Jejung hurriedly added:
'Everyone please don't take my words seriously! What I said just now wasn't real!'


(My heart..... I bet all cassiopeians know how I felt at that moment......)
 

Part 10 (final):

The last MC part, I believe everyone already knew about it.
Many sad words had been uttered...
I can't recall it in detail
(You) Can read the fanaccount from Japanese fans
I only know that... when everyone was crying... I didn't
Because I wanted to remember all of it clearly... I also been there once... struggling hard to swallow my tears...


Near the end Jejung said:
'Thank you everyone for keeping faith in us, always there waiting for us...'

At this moment, I really can't help myself...
In fact, I already repeated 'Tohoshinki' for countless of time in my heart...
Wasn't sure how many times 'I believe' had been repeated
how many times 'It doesn't matter' had been repeated

In the end I really couldn't help myself
At the moment when everyone was quiet, between the gap of speeches
I gathered all my strength........ used all my energy (and shouted)!!!!!!!
----- Gwen Cha Na!!!!!!!!
(means It doesn't matter in Korean)
The big screen immediately caught the expression of the trio.

Maybe that was just my own hallucination... (I) saw their facial expression changed a little bit.
Wasn't sure whether it was going to record into the DVD either...
After that (I) asked a Japanese fan who was at the standing section, she said she heard my squeal... 'ahh apparently that was you...'

Since my seat was so high up there
I am PROUD of my own squeal (^^)

(few parts omitted)

--------------------------

Before this I already decided with my friend,
going to shout Tohoshinki in Chinese (during the concert).
But, after listening to Jejung's speech, looking at their faces,
I couldn't shout it out... TmT
(Because) I wasn't sure once I shout it out, it is going to encourage them or hurt them...
So I didn't...

[FanAccount][Concert] Thanksgiving Live Tokyo Dome, Day 1

I love fan accounts, especially the ones written all spazzy and honest like the second one. Those FAs from Hollywood Bowl 2008 -- omg the best.

Tokyo Dome’s First Day

Junsu looked like he wanted to cry from the very beginning.
Even Yoochun’s eye were watery.
Eventually, Jaejoong cried.

The 3 of them sang with great sorrow and were crying.

The last message from Yoochun.

With this tour, I’m really worried if the fans will be able to make it here. 4 concerts… but to see everyone’s smile, do you know how blessed we feel? You guys probably do know~ I still want to have 20 more concerts, really. I want to bring happiness to everyone as Yoochun.

Jaejoong’s last MC was with tears.

Everyone has a lot to say to us, right? Us…we know what everyone wants to say~~ it's like you want to say it, but you can’t… its like all these words that are difficult to verbalize, these tears that you can’t seem to cry out, right? However, I think with this live concert, if you want to speak out, if you want to cry, just do so… And of course, being on this stage, the smiles that we give out are the most important.

Junsu

Last year, we were standing here as well, but really, too many things have happened. It’s restless to be standing here today. I was very touched by everyone’s support in the beginning. I had wanted to cry at that moment. I will keep on singing, anytime of the day, to repay all your support.

Sunday, June 13, 2010
My part of the fanaccount folks.


Before it all started, cue crowd screaming when they realized Sam just walked in :'D


Video Ments
→ Individual video ments of the members talking about the Thanksgiving Live and their feelings/nervousness about it. They spoke really low and soft so it was a little hard to hear with all the screaming.


JYJ - New Song (何時だって君に)
→ The boys appear in white suits with black piping, and black shirts. Very dashing and handsome :'D We heard this song last night during rehearsal I think and I think it's pretty much a given that it's a new song. The utter emotion they sang this with though, was mind-blowing. I have never seen Jejung lost control that fast. It's only the first song and he's crying.
→ Junsu is teary-eyed as well and lost his part at one point. Upon the climax of the song, the center stage rises, bringing them up and...yeah.
→ (*fixes her breaking heart*)


Ment
→ My listening Japanese is really bad, plus all the shouting and Jejung's tendency to speak really fast nowadays (I blame sunanare lol) and Yuchun just plain likes to mumble but essentially, it's the usual greetings (but their "konnichiwa" sounds too short and lonely without the "Tohoshinki desu~" following it...). I couldn't catch much but they were worried about the live, if people would come. Jejung's "yokatta!" is so precious ;__;


(For better translations of the ments, please read Manda's fanaccount ^_^)


Jejung/Yuchun – Shelter
→ By now you know the stage is a center stage (I PREDICTED THIS AND I WAS SO RIGHT OMFG I AM AWESOME) with 4 'arms' extending to the sides, front and back. There are 4 square screens that comes down to cover the center stage (like what they had in the T tour) and for Shelter, it showed raindrops striking a water surface, which fits the lonely image of Shelter so well.
→ JJ came over to my side *dies a thousand happy deaths* while YC is at the other end,
→ JJ is still teary-eyed omfg why does he kills me like this??
→ The entire song was just sung so freaking raw, it hurts. YC's rap was just so angry and full of frustration, especially the last part.
→ They come to the center for the ending, with a longer instrumental break to give them time to walk and as they pass each other by, they clasp hands.
→ JJ's ending "Yeah~" is...I've always said this; JJ, during his younger days, was technically perfect but lacked emotion/depth. Now he's all about the emotion and it freaking hurts listening to him sing sometimes.



Junsu - Kimi Ga Ireba (君がいれば)
Junsu appears on the center 'arm' and it rises up to bring him to the 1st level and cue fans going effing crazy. They showed bits and pieces of the drama while he sang and it's like watching the drama right there and then with Junsu singing just for you.



Ment
→ Couldn't catch much what JS said (again, refer to Manda's fanaccount) but he calls out for YC and crap, you can hear YC but where the hell is he??
→ Eff, the boy appears from right underneath the main walkway, popping up and scaring the bejeezus out of the fans on the arena floor who immediately screamed their heads off lol.
→ AND HE SHOOK THEIR HANDS. YC HOW COULD YOU?? I WANT TO SHAKE YOUR HAND TOO and have your babies but that's a different matter altogether. His "bikkurideshita?/surprised?" after that, pointing to the fans he shook hands with was so cheeky and so YUCHUN sobs.
→ YC vehemently denying it when JS said they'll show his BeeTV drama was so cute, including his flat out "dame desu". His embarrassment is just so flailworthy~
→ JJ's turn to appear, at the center stage! His "ano sa, ano sa!" so reminds me of Naruto...he basically scolded them for ignoring the fans behind and told them to come to where he was. When they failed to move fast enough, he yelled at them to run! Run!
→ JJ's turn to be embarrassed as they show Sunanare and omg, his utter embarrassment is so cute. Not only he hid his laugh behind his hand (as usual), he even clasped his forehead, laughing helplessly as YC hugs him lol.
→ JJ and YC greeted each other by their character's names, turned to JS and fell silent LOLOL. JS demanded for HIS own drama to be shown but of course, the screen stayed blank lol!
→ Then there's that roleplay everyone has heard about and YC's love for making everything into NGs lol. The most memorable part was the 3rd try:


JJ: Nakaji...Junsu wa sukideshita? (Nakaji, do you like Junsu?)


JS: Hai. (Yes.)



→ The flat 'yes' totally killed JJ who is flailing all over.
→ They spoke about Kanashimi next and something about how JS cried, watching it? YC affirmed that someone actually called him up saying JS was crying XD


Junsu - Kanashimi no Yukue (悲しみのゆくえ)
→ Honestly, the drama (played while Junsu sang), looks like your typical tragedy romance but with Junsu singing, and with him singing like that...it's kinda like shredding your heart with a dull fork. Utterly painful.
→ I listened to my audio recording on the train the next day, heading to Kyoto, and I actually cried. My bias is JJ and all this time, though I adore JS's voice, he rarely gets me. But listening to this song again, on the train, with so many things going wrong in my life and how I just want them to be happy...well. ^_^;


Mini-ment & Jejung’s solo (Kimi no tame ni/ Noreul wihae by Im Jaebum)
→ This song really reminded me of what he sang for Miroticon so it's no surprise that it's by the same singer (right?). Power rock ballads fit JJ to a tee and JJ, WHEN THE HELL ARE YOU GOING TO SING A HYDE/L'ARC EN CIEL SONG?? JUST DO HYDE'S 'SEASON'S CALL' OR 'EVERGREEN' AND I'LL BE HAPPY. OR EVEN HIS 'FAITH', OK??
→ He comes out in a white wife-beater, opened white shirt and ripped, blue jeans and just....he mentions that 'today is a very special live' so please listen to this song.


Yuchun solo - Tokyo Lovelight
→ OMG I was totally blown away that he'd sing Tokyo Lovelight! I was more or less forced into liking techno years ago because my brother-in-law is an underground DJ in the UK and when I first heard TL, I knew it was a good pop-techno so to listen to it live was asghj!!!
→ YC appears in an opened, black vest that looks a lot like the outfit they wore for 'Force' in TSC. He runs to the extended arm on our side and woah, a lift rises up from the stage and argghh!! He's STILL too far away from me sobs ;__;
→ Seriously, has YC gotten over his fear of heights? Because that lift is high.
→ He runs to the other side to do the same! Whee!
→ JJ (in hot pink) and JS (in LIME GREEN WHY JS WHY) joins in omg and lol! All of them are carrying their own face towel XD
→ We were repeatedly warned outside and inside the venue though that no jumping is allowed so bah, can't do a Sky/STL towel-waving like last time.
→ YC giving JJ a totally slutfaced look during a reprise and JJ's =__=; was so precious lolol
→ JJ THREW AWAY HIS TOWEL TO A FAN OMG I HATE YOU PEOPLE WITH ARENA SEATING!!!! YOU GET THE STREAMERS, THE BALLS AND NOW HIS TOWEL!!! *weeps in agony*


JYJ - Been So Long Feat. Lisa
→ LISA SINGS WITH THEM OMFG. It is AMAZING how easily JJ keeps to the same pitch as her OMFG.
→ They walk down the runway to the center arm and lol at how JJ is acting like Lisa's hip-hop bodyguard.
→ JJ and Lisa switch parts for this:


Lisa: With all my heart (yeah)
JJ: With all my soul (that's right, ahh)
Lisa: With all my mind (we both know)
JJ: With all my strength (together as one right)
Lisa: With all my heart (let's go, go)
JJ: With all my soul (just follow us)
JJ/Lisa: With all my strength (we're the one) yeah...(yeah, let's check this out one more time)


→ PS, if there are any fanaccounts that said Lisa hugged JJ, ignore it. JJ totally came up behind Lisa and hugged her LIGHTLY, surprising her I think, and YC joined in. (And sobs I wanted to wail when Steph told me Verbal came the next day. VERBAL!)


Dance Break - Introducing JYJ dancers
→ I think the only original TohoDancers I recognise were Gen, Ryo, 50, Shige and KO. Sigh. I miss these guys.
→ Lots more dancers plus the Korean ones they had in TSC I think. They also had these group of kids come in for a couple of songs? Kinda like an oendan (cheering) team but everytime JJ introduced them, the crowd is screaming too loud for me to hear anything lol



Ment
→ JYJ popped up on stage in white shirts and jeans. LAUGH AT THEM AS THEY STARE CHARISMATICALLY INTO THE AUDIENCE. JJ and JS finally moved away but YC IS STILL STARING CHARISMATICALLY INTO THE AUDIENCE XDDD
→ Sigh, they're talking about something and how JJ is a dai-sempai for it (kinda like he's THE senior/sunbae of whatever it was they're talking about). While YC was talking, JJ ran to the corner to get a towel but stopped halfway when YC yelled at him, "Where (the hell) are you going?!"
→ LAUGH AT JJ'S DEER-CAUGHT-IN-HEADLIGHTS LOOK.
→ They talk about sunanare again and Js and YC confess to being fans and on to YC's K-drama (which I still cannot recall the name of, forgive me) and how he'll work hard at it.
→ JJ talks about JS being a solo singer and how even though he keeps saying he's charismatic, JJ was actually surprised to find that JS is charismatic lol.
→ YC asked for an interesting episode in sunanare and JJ tried to oblige, but his long (and frankly, incomprehensible to me, sigh, JJ I hate your ease with casual Japanese now) story was met with blank faces and YC complaining that it was boring.
→ YC says they're going to prepare on stage and staff come running out with black trench coats and mike stands (for them to put their mics while they wear the coats).
→ JJ's "Henshin! Ja-jan!" ("Transformed! Ta-dah!") was too adorable. I dieded. JJ mentioned how it's time to sing a J-pop song now and...


JYJ - Rainy Blue
→ The three of them went to different sides of the stage, later rejoining in the center and it's beautiful how the four screens came down, enclosing them, as "rain" fell. To be honest, at this point I was worried that haters would say they stole the idea from the TSC tour so I was happily surprised to discover later that Sam is the concert director :D


JYJ - True Heart
→ They throw off their coats to sing this song next and as I understand it, it's a Japanese cover, since all the Japanese fans seem to know it ==; But it's a fun song nonetheless. The boys got into lifts at each end of the stage~ and these cheering kids came out and it's all fun fun fun :D


JYJ - I have nothing
→ I have nothing to say. It is just...beautiful and freaking hurts.
→ Have you noticed by now, the theme of the concert? ;___;
→ JJ and JS's duet at the end of the song...god, these boys are just awesome, awesome singers. The jazzy ad-libs and the way their voices overlap each other...


Video Ment: Making of
→ They meet Sam! JJ is recording it all! (Ah, so that's the infamous camcorder he was lugging around during his sneaky Canadian trip...)
→ YC forehead! Dancing!
→ JJ showing off his sausage-peeling skill and giving one to a very ==; Sam! JJ peeling another sausage for himself! :D
→ JJ and JS practicing for the Intoxication dance break! I broke my brain here!
→ JJ singing sexily to YC who is very :'D and a JaeChun hug, awwww~
→ JJ lifting weights at the corner using a stack of folding chairs lolol
→ JJ doing push-ups...boy really does exercise everywhere ==;
→ JJ and JS making "wind effect" for YC as he sings LMAO (you know, holding on to the edges of his clothes and flapping it really hard? XD)


Yuchun - My Girlfriend
→ YC chatting, asking if anyone brought their family with them, or their gf/bf. And I guess he said something about wanting a gf today? The center stage is done up pretty nicely. There's a sofa with a lamp on one side, and a bench and streetlight on the other.
→ YC picks a girl and I'm sure everyone knows his tendency to accidentally pick the underaged ones XDD His look of horror when she said she was 15 years old was hilarious XD
→ HE KEEPS HOLDING ON TO HER HAND AS HE LEADS HER ACROSS THE STAGE TO THE COUCH, SINGING TO HER. I HOPE THE GIRL WAS A YC FAN BECAUSE EFF, IF IT WAS ME, I WOULDN'T BE WASHING THAT HAND, NUH-UH.
→ HE JUST LOOKS AT HER OMFG EVERYTIME HE DOES SOMETHING GREASY, WE'RE SCREAMING OUR HEADS OFF LOLOLOL
→ Sigh, the flowers, the hand kissing. Man, you are one lucky, lucky fan ;___;


Jejung - Maze
→ FYAAAAH! LOL I mean, fire montage on screen and JJ appears in a long, opened, dark checked shirt, leather vest and a leather bracer on his left arm. UNF.
→ Argh, JJ still missed the same part he missed during rehearsal last night but I honestly think the poor boy doesn't have enough breath to. But man, this is WAY more awesome than the MAZE he did during Premium Live because his voice is so much more...intense, now.
→ Band intro in the middle of the song AND OMFG, THE GUITAR, IS THIS THE SAME SHINJIROH INOUE??? IF YES, DO I VAGUELY RECALL A SHINJIROH IN THE BAND DURING THE LAST TOUR TOO OMFG HOW LONG HAS HE BEEN PLAYING GUITAR FOR THEM????
→ Shinjiroh-san and the bassist flanks JJ as he stands at the center and wind blows up from beneath, the tails of his checked shirt flying back and his hair streaming in the wind OMG JEJUNG WHY ARE YOU NOT A VIDAL SASSOON MODEL???


Xiahtic
→ I have absolutely no feelings for Xiahtic lol ==; Don't kill me. But he appears in a white wifebeater, white pants and a cropped red leather jacket.
→ No JS playing the synthesizer but there's a longer dance break I think. YC rapping in a red, long sleeveless coat, black undertee and jeans. UNF. Hello baby :'D
→ Dudes, seriously, how the HELL does JS sounds so good while doing a shoulder+body roll that is quite likely illegal in 35 different countries?


Jejung/Yuchun - Colors
→ YC appears on our side and JJ at the other. YC in a shirt, wifebeater and jeans combo and JJ in a light pink hoodie, pale yellow tee underneath and jeans.
→ JJ pointing at YC at the first "like a melody and harmony in love~" ;__;
→ They walk back to the center stage and...shit, JJ is crying. He wipes his eyes but a second later, a fat tear rolls down his cheek and drops from his chin. Dammit.
→ For the closing line, "like a melody and harmony in love~", they stare into each other's eyes and *giggles* JJ is looking particularly mushy and YC is looking nervous. JJ reaches out to YC...only to switch their mics LOL! For the "..in looove~" bit, they sweep their arms out to one side of the stage, and did it again to the other side!
→ SO THE SO-CALLED 'MISTAKE' DURING LAST NIGHT'S REHEARSAL THAT WE HEARD WAS A LIE LOLOL. THEY WERE PRACTICING THIS BIT LMAO.
→ JJ shouting "mou ikkai!/one more time!" and JS appears! YC gets him to join them an ahh, the final three-part harmony...truly a melody and harmony in love. Sigh.


Ment
→ Junsu's oyaji gag...ah, never stop doing oyaji gags, Jun-chan...
→ LOL JJ SHOUTING FROM BACKSTAGE THAT HIS OYAJI GAG IS BORING!
→ JS training the band to provide sound effect everytime he screams "Junsu time!"
→ LOLOL JJ and YC appear on stage (they're all in outfits kinda like the A-Nation '09 except it's grey and white) and LMAO, JJ AND YC ARE HUGGING EACH OTHER AND JS WALKS OVER TO DRAPE HIMSELF OVER JJ'S BACK. THREESOMEEEEEEEE~
→ YC's "Yuchun time!" and the band's "ba-bam!" XD
→ We all sing Happy Birthday to a surprised Yuchun and aww it took a while but he finally noticed out 'saranghaeyo' and he replies with one too~ "Boku mo~!" ("Me too!")
→ While they're getting drinks, the on-screen prompt for us to do the sign came on again and JJ's going "mite mite!/look look!" to YC :'D
→ Mention the following song, a new song (?) and tried to teach us the hand movements lololol
→ JS got annoyed with JJ when he got the movements a little bit wrong so it's sensei time! XD
→ Know how the line in the song goes "...juunbi ok"? YC pointed out how it's like his favourite line and promptly screams "jyuunbi OK???!!" Of course we screamed back "OK!!!!"



JYJ – OK! (original song)
→ This is a really fun, upbeat song with a catchy drumline beat. I love the hand movements! The boys got into carts like in Tokyo Dome sobs, and threw balls. WHY DO I NEVER GET ARENA SEATING??
→ The boys meet up again at the center stage as YC sings the last line.


(I was SO right that they sang another new song after OK! but no one believed me. Sniff. But yeah, a new song :'D)



MENT
→ JJ: Thank you for your warm support...let's laugh together, cry together...
→ (As said previously, Manda catches the ments better than I do)
→ They got the band and TohoDancers on stage, and all bow.
→ There's a very sweet smile on YC's face...
→ The 3 left, they bow and leave the stage...
→ We all scream for an encore.


JYJ: 3HREE VOICES AD
→ I don't know about you, but I'm getting this DVD, trans or no trans.
→ JJ has the ability to make the most ridiculous looking parka look fashionable lol. JJ RIDES A DOG SLED HOW CUTE OMG.


Junsu (feat. Jejung & Yuchun) - Intoxication
→ Intoxication is MUCH better without the grease of the PV lol.
→ JJ and YC joins him for the dance break and it has an awesome, smooth, slick MJ-feel! They break into two teams; JJ and YC dancing and then JS!



Final Ment
→ Again, refer to Manda's because she caught it better than I did but we honestly believed that because of THIS day's ment, we understood W as a song meant for HoMin.
→ I don't know about other JJ fans but if you watch him obsessively enough like I do (8 concerts on and he still commands my field of vision...), you start to recognise when he's at the end of his rope and he's holding back his emotions as best as he can. He has this way of standing very, very still, looking down blankly and you know he's breaking down. Sure enough, he's crying as he speaks.
→ YC is teary-eyed as well and....JJ mentions how they weren't happy and were so worried...


W
→ JJ: This is our feelings...please listen...
→ JYJ haters, you know why you can so easily hate them? Because you never see them like this. They've been breaking apart since the start of the concert and now, now, they're broken. I don't hate HoMin, okay? I love them too and eff it, if you think HoMin is hurting, what about the other three? I have never seen JUNSU crying this badly during a song. PROUD was different, because it was a sense of achievement. Here, they're just...broken.
→ I'm crying too, ok? I'm going through a shitty time and I wish, I wish I can be as strong as they are. Everyone around me is crying softly.


At the end, as they say their goodbyes, everyone is shouting encouragement to them and I can only join in.


Steph, Manda, I love you both for sharing this with me and making it possible. Just...I love you.

[Live][MBLAQ] Y did I fall in love with you~

Something about this group...I just really like them. I suppose it's because Rain (Bi) tried to condition MBLAQ into being idols of the old era and failed because they were just too funny on variety shows. It's also because they are older, and I know they have talent: G.O. was a member of the disbanded TYKEYS, Joon trained in ballet and is Hollywood actor, and Seungho was always class president. FEEL MY BIAS. Serious choreo and charisma in this perf of 'Y' on Music Core!

[Live][C.N.Blue] Love Love Love

C.N. Blue seems to be getting livelier; I really felt they were having fun during this performance of "Love" on Music Core. I miss their old haircuts, though, especially maknae Jungshin's half ponytail and former leader Jonghyun's long mess huhu~

[Live][Infinite] Shnazziness on Music Core

 

It's four minutes into the England v. USA match, and ENG has already scored! BLAAAGGGGHH. I'm trying to remember what I wanted to say about Infinite's performance on Music Core, lol, but I can't really ::sweatdrops:: Actually, the choreo and music of "Come Back Again" really fit well together...very appealing. I do wish their outfits weren't black and white and had made more of a statement. However, their MJ-esque short pants with striped socks are pretty shnazzy n_~

[Live][SS501] on Music Core!

I'm sorry, this is just because I love them. I can never turn down watching a performance of "Love Ya." I find it too awesome. I just didn't like the excessive number of dancers. They cut it down to four, and now it's back up to six. At least they kept the white suits to make it easier for everyone to keep track of Double S.

I found this vid via AllKPop (don't go there! go to Daily K Pop News!). I still hate how those writers are so biased for some groups. SS501 is a DSBK and SuJu level group, but there's no hype around them. Pssshh whatever, Triple S doesn't need the hype.

FIGHTING!!!!!!

[MV] BoA's Teaser

BoA!!!!!! She's back with "WOO Weekend"! And finally back to her fans. I'm anticipating her promotions...under Avex? I'm not sure what Japanese label she's under because she's under the Korean SM Entertainment which had a riff with Avex Japan over the JYJ activities. Avex treats her well, so I hope she's an Avex artist. Anyway, the teaser for the mv looks very fresh and fun, complete with colorful grundge-like pop-ups! The tune is...J-pop.....haha not hatin'. I'm obviously more of a K-popper ㄲㄲㄲㄲㄲㄲ

[News][2AM][BEG] Jinwoon and Narsha at World Cup

I woke up a little late this morning and found out the Korean Warriors won by reading the following portion of a tweet from U-Kiss's Alexander: 

대한민국 대박!!! CONGRATS KOREA!! (/^o^)/

You can see 2AM's Jinwoon and Brown Eyed Girls's Narsha (along with their very blonde translator) cheering on the team. Perhaps the photo was taken during one of the two goals the soccer team made to shut out Greece, 2004 European champions.

[Vote][MV][Super Junior] Not that you have to...

Haha, I expected this much margin of soon-to-be victory. Korean fans always support their groups! Look at that crazy lead! I hope the song plays for everyone to hear!

Do check out their MV after the jump!

[News] SuperBlaq ♥

[TVDaily: Kim JinKyung Reporter] Boy group MBLAQ's plan for supporting the World Cup has been revealed.

On the 11th on KBS 2TV's "Music Bank" waiting room, when they met with the reporter they stated "We may or may not cheer on the World Cup along with Super Junior".

The members said "The Super Junior hyung's proposed that we watch and support our team during the World Cup together in their bus with an installed TV" and couldn't hide their excitement.

That day when MBLAQ sang "Y" a step manlier and displayed their sexiness, they received a hot applause from their fans.

Translator's note: It's not word for word but i dont think people would understand if i did because technically it just says cheer/support but what they really meant was watching and cheering together WITH super junior and not just suju's bus ^^;
