JYJ Interview with Chosun.com

-JYJ’s heartfelt confession regarding the predicaments faced due to their previous management

-JYJ “What should we do?” .. in the midst of thinking of advancing into Japan next year.

-Junsu’s new year greeting: “I shall think of the year of the rabbit as my year.”
“Thinking that only good things will happen right? This kind of conclusion has not been reached. Because we are prepared and settled even in the worst situations, we don’t feel depressed daily due to the uncertain circumstances surrounding us.”

Before we knew it, 3 months has passed since JYJ came out from DBSK and formed their trio. And this is the statement that JaeJoong, YooChun and Junsu delivered.
Even while complications arise with their previous management and previous contract, JYJ released their latest album “The Beginning” and are looking forward to new stage activities. Early next month, they plan to release their “Music Essay”.

In a recent interview with Chosun.com, JYJ said, “A year and a half ago, we had this similar resolution. During our golden days as DBSK, we had the intention of creating this huge resolution. Because we had the readiness to be able to form the life of a singer, and appeared from such a position, all our activities now are precious and we are thankful for them.”

After H.O.T, DBSK ruled the world of singers and were the best male group; it is difficult to forget such a splendid past.
JYJ said, “We are forever DBSK. In the future too, as DBSK, we cannot disappoint our fans. We have no intention of losing reputation and value. Because of that, now, we are determined to treat JYJ’s every move with the greatest care and deliberation. Though becoming from 5 members to 3 members is seemingly a very big change, compared to us having transformed, we would like to hear stories of us moving forward from now on.”

Due to the lawsuit regarding their contract with SM Entertainment and “restrictions on appearing in Broadcasts” etc, the surrounding circumstances have made the 3 members’ individual movements messy.
However JYJ said, “Because we have to independently deliberate and come to a decision on everything, there will be moments when it gets difficult. Sometimes when the issues aren’t solved well, we ask ourselves, “why even for those parts where it can be easily settled , we have to go through it so difficultly”, and became depressed, but in the end, we met a good management and agency and enjoy working and the end result is also good.”

“What will you guys do?” “is 3 months long?” While JYJ was formed separately, there were many negative viewpoints surrounding them. However JYJ recently released a formal album, and while going back and forth between Asia and America, they completed their showcases with the least strain. While revealing that they are now in the process of discussing with the Japan management on their advancement into Japan, a commotion has started in the music industry.

Next year January, JYJ’s worldwide album will be formally released for sale in America. Their management said, “Over in Japan, the interest in JYJ is growing, and we see that there is a lot of anticipation. It is true that the discussion of holding activities in Japan is ongoing. Full fledged activities should begin sometime next year.”

JYJ said, “It has already been 7 years since we have been together. Now, just by looking at each other’s eyes, we can tell what the other person is feeling. We are also in full anticipation of what we will be able to present in future.”

JaeJoong said, “It would be great if we could carry out the activities as ourselves, while with all members being healthy and not falling sick, and always cherishing each other like that and being strong.”

Junsu said, “Till now, I have been working while we monitor each other and receive reliable strength. Even if we were to carry out our own individual projects once again, it would be great if we were to all try our best and achieve great success.”

YooChun said, “Since our debut, this is the first time I have gone on a holiday with the members after finishing a concert, it was really awesome. In the future if we could go for holidays often and also make room to meet with our families, it would be great.”

We were curious about how JYJ feels regarding SM Entertainment’s official announcement that the 2-membered unit of DBSK will be resuming their activities from the start of next year.
JYJ said, “It would be great if thinks work out well for them. Though we feel some regret that they will be appearing with the name DBSK, we do not believe that DBSK means 2 members. We hope that without losing the value of DBSK, they will present awesome and cool activities.”

“Giving New Year greetings.”

The three members of JYJ talked about their New Year wishes for themselves and presented their fans with New Year greetings.

Because on his profile, his birthday is written as 1/1/1987, Junsu is often mistaken as having been born in the year of the rabbit. However, his real birth date is 15/12/1986. Next year is the year of the rabbit, and his name keeps getting included as celebrities who are born in the year of the rabbit.
With regards to that, Junsu said, “Even though I am another year older, isn’t it good to eat more? (laughs) I shall think of next year, the year of the rabbit, as my year, and pray that I will achieve many good things. I hope to portray a good image of myself in the musical “Tears of Heaven” that I am acting in now.”

JaeJoong said, “I am in anticipation to hold activities more freely and vivaciously as JYJ. In the future too, I would like to show a more amazing image of myself through the world tour concert. I hope that the fans will be able to achieve all of their New Year wishes.”

YooChun said, “The Music Essay which will be released this round is a production which includes brand new stories about things which have happened to us and the relationships between the members, which are told through music. So I hope that the fans will show even more interest. I hope that you will receive a promising New Year.”

Kim Woo Joo - 'Yunho Was Suffering From Depression'


J.Rich's Kim Woo Joo, close friend of U-Know Yunho, revealed Yunho had been suffering from depression as a result of the controversy surrounding TVXQ.

Kim Woo Joo said 'At the time, I was extremely worried by the way Yunho would go and drink soju because of the issues between him and his members. Yunho normally goes drinking around once a year, but during those days, not only did he go for soju 6 times a month, he was also suffering from depression. It was truly unbelievable.'

He said 'I'm glad to see that he has picked himself up and regained his strength.' With regard to the TVXQ duo's new song, he remarked 'Now I finally understand why they're TVXQ'.

TVXQ's comeback track will be released on January 3rd, signifying a new beginning to their activities.

IU and Nicole made the mistake of lip-syncing

On the 30th, SBS Entertainment Awards were held.

Kara's Nicole and IU wore wedding dresses and performed on stage Madonna's "Like a Virgin". However they were concentrating on the performance so much that they made the mistake of not singing the start of the song.

It was a pre-recorded song so it didn't make too much difference but the fact that two singers were lip syncing was a disappointment.

There was also a mistake when MCs came on stage as well. The door which they were meant to come through didn't open so there was an unexpected pause.

Big Bang to hold "BIG SHOW" and embark on Japan tour in 2011


K-pop idols Big Bang next year will hold their annual "BIG SHOW" in Korea as well as embark on a concert tour in Japan, according to YG Entertainment on Thursday.

Yang Hyun-suk, CEO and founder of YG, announced on their official blog site (http://www.yg-life.com) that Big Bang will take the stage for their concert titled "BIG SHOW" at the Olympic Park Stadium from February 25 to 27.

The concert is usually held in late-January every year but next year's show was postponed because Big Bang wanted to show fans new songs from their upcoming group album, the latest songs from G-Dragon and T.O.P's unit album, and the tracks from member Seungri's mini-album, Yang explained.

He added that Seungri's solo album will be released on January 13, ten days later than the originally scheduled date since they wanted to give the youngest member a longer time to promote his record and give G-Dragon and T.O.P enough time to promote additional title tracks "Don't Go Home" and "Baby Good Night."

The agency has yet to set an exact date for the release of Big Bang's group album.

Yang further announced that the boys will fully concentrate on their singing careers in Japan as well by holding a concert tour in Japan for two months starting May next year.

"We discussed it with our partners in Japan and we decided that the group should focus deeply on their promotional events in each country. The boys will be in Korea from March to April, hold their concert and promotional events in Japan from May till June, release a new album in Korea sometime between July till September and then return back to Japan."

Composed of other members Daesung and Taeyang, Big Bang was discovered and trained by major talenthouse YG Entertainment. They have released several albums and hit songs such as "Dirty Cash," "With U," "Lies" and "Haru Haru."

The quintet have successfully crossed over into the Japanese music market in June of last year with their debut single "My Heave" which reached No. 3 on the prestigious Oricon daily singles chart and toured three cities in the country which attracted a total of 60,000 fans.

They have released other singles in Japan such as "Tell Me Goodbye" and "Beautiful Hangover" and performed on the main stage at the Summer Sonic Festival this August and took the stage with fellow YG labelmates for the "2010 YG Family Concert" in early December in Korea.

TOP's Interview with 10Asia!

Posted Image

During the performance of their new song “Knockout,” T.O.P, during most of the time, either stood still or moved slowly when he rapped while his partner G-Dragon (GD) moved wildly around the stage. But no one would dare say he moves less for their performance of "Knockout" only becomes complete when GD’s swiftness is combined with T.O.P’s heaviness along with the presence of their unique characters that are as different as their hairstyles. Furthermore, T.O.P has the ability to 'eat up' the audience with the most unexpected movements. He once used to be one of the five members of Big Bang who worried over his lack of dancing skills but he can now capture people’s attention without so much as moving a muscle. Here is T.O.P's remarks about performing on stage, his thoughts and his confidence. 10Asia will publish its interview with both T.O.P and GD tomorrow.




10: Of all the days, I'm interviewing you on Christmas (Laugh). You must already be exhausted from yesterday's concert and here I am bothering you with this.
T.O.P: It’s alright (Laugh). What did you think of our performance?

10: I posted few photos from your concert on my Twitter account and was hated by a few followers. They called me selfish for having fun by myself (Laugh).
T.O.P: I guess I'll have to say I'm thankful if they think of our concert that way. (Laugh) When doing concerts something can always go wrong such as problem with sounds but it is our duty to make the best out of even the worst situations. I’m also grateful to everyone who was there with us and how they put in much effort to help us enjoy ourselves. It's been a while since we've performed on televised shows as well but I feel heartened and happy performing thanks to their consideration and great stage preparations.

10: Your performance seems to have changed from the past. For example, at your YG Family Concert, you suddenly approached a fan in the standing area of the stage, stuck your face right in front of hers, and started rapping.
T.O.P: It wasn’t anything calculated beforehand or anything. While performing together with Ji-yong [G-Dragon] we already have a picture of what to do but all the small things are improvised. I think that’s the kind of power we came to gain while being in show business for past few years. Just like with acting, the emotions we deliver are feelings that we get from our music, not something that's pre-arranged. I believe it comes from our confidence.

10: You seem to exude more confidence in both the music in your newest album and stage manner. There is also a different kind of ease we get from your smoky makeup with the song “Knockout” which is quite interesting. Any special reason for such change?
T.O.P: It’s more about how I questioned myself over the past year. In the past I used to wonder what am I really doing this. There were some parts that burdened me greatly, leaving me to wonder whether I’m doing something that may be too much for me. But as I grew older I changed the question. “What do people want from me?”

10: The answer was your confidence?
T.O.P: Won’t people wish to gain vicarious satisfaction from me and confidence to go on with their lives? I think that was part of the reason my raps started to include lyrics like “Turn it up,” and same for the album. It’s not just to do something fancy or to bluff. Even if I show off a bit I wish those listening to my music have confidence for themselves just like I have for my career. I’m not sure how listeners will take it but I put a lot into that lyrics.

10: Is that the reason you started to share your name with a well-known brand, thus making a brand out your name as well? It seems like you were saying toward those who observe you “You can take me as you like. So I am.”
TOP: I became a bit bold. Actually my real self if more of a thinker, worrying about lots of things and careful about things like that. But when thinking about what people want from me and what could be the right thing to do, I decided that carrying on like this would be much more refreshing. I wish people who are feeling down to feel better as they listen to this music. Whether this is just a showing off for me or not, I wish the music to reach to them with ease, hopefully not too bossy (Laugh). I wanted to express my sincerity at least once and I believe that one way of expressing for me.

10: You used to give off impression of delving deeper into your inner self but now you’ve started to think about your influence toward others as well. How was such switch in thoughts possible?
T.O.P: I think I began to think more widely about the world I live in. World is such a bustling place yet lots of people today go through hard times, unable to gain energy from that vigor. And those are the people who are so good to me, to Big Bang or at least those listening to our songs. I thought I would like them to feel vicarious happiness by listening to our music. It got me wanting to express the way of feeling vicarious happiness in several roundabout ways.

10: Are such thoughts from perceiving your position as a singer? If you wish to do something for others you have to prepare yourself to take that much more responsibility.
TOP: I used to hate and feel burdened by such love and interest from other people in the past. I couldn’t enjoy any of it. But after letting go of my greed, I became more relaxed toward it. My ambition for music, the thoughts that I got to do something with my music which used to haunt me melted away. In the past I remember frequently saying “Hope you like it,” whenever I release a new song but now it doesn’t matter if people don’t expect much. Instead I came to think that I shall be the person who can amplify other’s expectations. I want to return as much as I receive, urge myself to work harder to study music. There is so much I wanted to show.

10: Is this linked to your present situation? You’ve been involved in acting but then return to pour out your music all at once with the latest album.
T.O.P: When I returned back from the film “Into The Fire (2010) GD was already in the middle of doing his music and I resumed my place in Big Bang. So much has changed in music world, great people out in the stage and everything. Since I’d been away from that flow for quite some time that gave me a moment to step back and re-organize my thoughts.

10: The way you express yourself seems to have changed. Before, you said you act out a virtual character but in recent album you likened yourself to “someone you meet only through speaker or ear phone.” Did you create a character out of yourself?
T.O.P: Yes. We get to stand before a great many people compared to our age. Of course we gained praise as well as criticism but after going through that process repeatedly I became tired of it too. I wanted to maintain a certain level of distance from people and to show myself only at stage or in the music. But since satisfying the listeners comes as priority much of the thinking was about how to best harmonize the two needs in making of the new album.

Posted Image
10: You are in a sense, unrealistic, aren't you? Big Bang members aren’t exactly the ordinary lot.
T.O.P: I do think that. Sometimes when I have a drink with GD we do feel great about how everything is going in our daily lives but lonely at the same time. Although there are things hard to handle at our age and things that we have missed out on, we also achieved just as much, which makes us think that we live in a dream world. Sometimes even we have trouble identifying whether we live in dream or reality.

10: It must be tough, continuing to get judged by others, always forced to think in business mind-set while doing things your way.
T.O.P: I think about that all the time. But I think I’ve reached close to the answer. In case of music, rather than thinking “what kind of music do people want and which trend should we follow,” I believe I should just do what I want to do and try something I’ve never done before but not going too far with it. I have wonderful experts who can correct me if that happens so placing my faith on them, I would like to pursue new and if not bold, at least a bold direction in doing my music.

10: Korea is not the best place for celebrity to live so you seemed to have somehow reached your own nirvana just like GD.
T.O.P: Yup, my nirvana (Laugh). Just kidding. I just boldly let myself go (Laugh). I know there are people who regard me and other Big Bang members with some prejudice. But it doesn’t matter. Those are the perceptions that drive us to keep improving. I don’t mean I enjoy rude comments online but we try to do even harder because of such misunderstanding. Personally I think the best part of our Big Bang members is that we enjoy efforts of that kind. Not because they we want something but simply enjoying the process, which becomes our biggest strength.

10: The lyrics by TOP in the latest album seem to be in that much more unique. Rapper is an artificial character yet it tells things that one wanted to say for oneself with the most confidence.
When I decided to become partner with GD the first thing we discussed was to write lyrics that only we can write. After all we went through much expectations and criticism since young age. Amid all that we wanted to write story lyrics about ourselves. Some can simply view it as we’re just full of ourselves. But we really wanted to write lyrics that can defy denounce such thought when analyzing it phrase by phrase. Something like “This is what we are made of. Who are you to snub?”

10: That’s what “Intro” part felt like. The sound was closer to old school hip hop, so it was like returning back to rap of back in middle school.
T.O.P: That’s right. By giving a sample of old school hip hop I wanted to show the basis of GD and my music. At the same time I also wanted to ask which rap should be considered seriously as I’ve laid out my story and my present in my own way.

10: Is “Oh mom” a reverse expression of that thought? Unlike other songs you did with GD that piece expressed one’s inner self instead of how one I viewed outside.
T.O.P: “Oh mom” is based on an actual episode. I can’t exactly detail on that but basically it’s my letter to one friend who is very, very sick. It’s a very meaningful piece for me which wasn’t planned in the track list but got included because I wanted it to be there badly.

10: “Oh mom” was arranged as rock music and the drum was made to sound loud as if a real performance. Is there special reason to making such choice? You could’ve taken the rhythm part differently.
T.O.P: I wanted it to go in a bit more analogue style. In other words, something warmer. These days the trend in music industry changes in crazy speed and quite a few songs get forgotten within the span of two or three weeks. At the same time it seems people are getting tired of music. Electronica music is good to enjoy but if one leans toward that too much it also wears people out too. So if not me, than for the sake of fans, I wanted to try something that sounds more analogue. And besides, GD and I are both starting to get interested in rock. Our rap style changed quite a bit too. In the past I tried to give off a thicker and huskier sound but now I try to come up with more relaxed sound. Something like a hardwood of its original form (Laugh).

10: I was quite impressed by a rap from “Baby Good Night.” If the rap of your past was the kind that tried to stand out of the sound to take over the whole song, that particular rap was closer to melting into the sound as much as it can. Then there were lyrics that matched the sound of vocabularies like “whipping cream.”
T.O.P: It may be because we wished to express our inner sentiment. As for "Baby Good Night” we took extra care to leave out provocative elements so the listeners can without worrying about their ears. These days people say the song sounds too long if it goes over three minutes and same for the song that doesn’t come to you in a snap. But I believe there are lots of music that are not boring without extra stimulation. So I wanted to tell people - those who like Big Bang, or GD and I - especially those in teens and in 20s that there are music of this style as well. Even if it’s long and out of trend, music is just music.

10: I think that’s the point where your personal goal and thoughts for public meet.

T.O.P: The songs are something that came out by voluntarily by instinct rather than through complicated thoughts but then we became extremely successful at young age. At the same time we are still a sensitive young people who want to do music. In between our work we go through lots of emotions which we try to express and also seek our goals. But as we distance ourselves to give a thought about our lives, it seems like I’m starting to see a big picture and seeing my goals more clearly. That’s why I wanted to help those listening to my music to be confident and become a source of that strength to me and to those people.

10: Your confidence seems to truly “knockout” the odds (Laugh). There may be people that will be sharpening their blades, ready to attack what you do, whenever you and GD go on stage. What’s your plan?
T.O.P: Our blades are sharper. (Laugh)
