Even when their opinions differ, they are able to naturally understand each other when they communicate with one another.

-Even when they’re on and off as Tohoshinki members, the two are always close together. Where do you think each other’s charm lies? To further inform our readers who only see the two on stage, please let us hear your thoughts
JJ: I think Yuchun’s good point is when his heart moves. Besides having that in common with him, I feel that we are the same. I’ve always felt that way since the first time I met him.
YC: I think Jaejung’s best point is that he is the type who listens to others well. His charm lies in both the way you can talk earnestly with him and how he understands your pain.
-Was the image of your first meeting memorable?


JJ: When I heard that Yuchun was coming back from America as an exchange student there to join Tohoshinki, I freely built up an image of him in my mind. He was totally different from my image of him: blonde hair, blue eyes, and white skin (laughs). He wore a colorful shirt, short pants, and sandals. He looked like a Chinese action star (laughs). But his mind was free-styled, and I was really glad. It just shows how you can’t judge a person from his appearance (laughs).
YC: At that time, Jaejung was into sports and he had these huge muscles. It was about twice the size of what he has now (laughs). When I first met him, he wore a tank top and shorts. I thought he was a K1 player. But after talking to him, I discovered that we had a lot in common and became really good friends.
-Is conversation important in seeing into men’s (hearts)?
JJ: Yes. We have differences in opinion too. We’re similar in the way how our emotions sway and we can talk with each other about anything- I think that’s the most important relationship of all.
YC: After a day’s work, while we go drinking, I’ll say, “I think this way, what do you think of it Jaejung?”. We do this quite often. Because we work with a lot of people, usually we have to read the overall atmosphere and be careful of what we say so that there are no misunderstandings. But during off-time, we can relax and say anything we want.
-So the important point is to not pay too much mind and speak frankly then. So how do you catch the other’s feelings and thoughts?
JJ: Yuchun discusses everything with me. That’s why I can completely understand that I can completely put my trust in him.
YC: During those times, I feel that I found happiness and I’m laughing with my whole heart. When we are together, I can put my full trust in him and talk to him about anything. We’re able to naturally understand each other.
-For the men who are able to open up to others, they can also trust in girls. This can serve as a reference. Thank you (for the interview).

The big quotes on the second page in green~

JEJUNG: Even though it may be sad when we’re busy and can’t meet, I think this is a good experience.

A: Not a very talkative person, and when I meet her, she’ll make my heart go *thump*

Q: When was your first love?
A: In sixth grade, I fell in love with an angelic cute girl one year younger than me.

A: I’m bad at calling, but I want to tell her my feelings through my diary or letters after a long time not seeing her.

Q: What do you look forward to her doing?

A: I didn’t understand what “go out with me” meant in elementary school.

DBSK/ TVXQ/ Tohosinki's Hero Jaejoong and Micky Yoochun are featured with a full photo spread in the latest issue of Japan's Steady Magazine.






enjoy ;)

Dear visitors,if you are a regular visitor here,you might notice that i rarely post up news about DBSK,usually Jaz will post up DBSK's stuffs.

Since others are busy nowadays,so i helped them to do their roles.To be honest,i don't know much about DBSK,but i watched Jae Joong and Yoo Chun's performance on Music Fighter today singing their new song colors melody and harmony,i have nothing to say but impressed by their singing skills!

Besides,they can speak Japanese fluently now..Good jod,DBSK!!

Watch the video here

Especially in a time like this, Taegoon can't help but to check up on TVXQ's Hero Jaejoong.

"We see each other often. But I don't know much (about things like the lawsuit). I didn't want to pry when my friend was having such a hard time. I just eat with him, have tea and things like that."

Taegoon has revealed that even though he has risen to stardom, because Hero Jaejoong is such a superstar, they practically have to prepare a 007 mission every time they meet.

"We usually meet in Jaejoong's car. We drink coffee together after parking in the waterfront of the Han River. Uh, when I put it like that, it somehow sounds a little odd. (laughs)

Idol group Tohoshinki members JEJUNG and YUCHUN has been performing as a duo for a limited period! On September 30th they will release a single titled ‘COLORS～Melody and Harmony/Shelter’! The two composed and arranged the songs themselves. The songs feature simple yet beautiful harmonies that will be easy for fans to remember and sing along. A Japanese women’s magazine interviewed the two artists!

――Do you have any advice on how to sing the songs harmoniously in karaoke?
“Tohoshinki songs should be easier for women to sing. When trying to sing in harmony one person just has to sing two keys lower than the main vocals.” (JEJUNG)
“Practice hard until you can create a single melody instead of singing two separate ones.” (YUCHUN)

――Both of you look more mature than your age. That makes you all the more attractive.
“Who? Us?? Do I look that old?” (JEJUNG)

――No, since both of you are so polite and neat, you look very appealing.
“Oh, I see. But are you sure I don’t look old?” (JEJUNG)

YUCHUN has recently gotten into a habit of rising early. JEJUNG told the reporter that he was easing stress by singing karaoke. One of the keys to their success must be their ability to manage stress and lead a healthy life.

PART 1

Achieving huge success during their Tokyo Dome Concert, Tohoshinki was also very energetic during A-nation. Amongst the 5 of them appeared the Special Project Unit, Jejung and Yuchun! Their natural message song, "Colors~Melody and Harmony~", and "Shelter", a song that is able to be at the top of the music industry, are the best songs that 2 have composed together. This single is not filled with just the unlimited charm of a singer, but as a composer!!

- "Colors~Melody And Harmony~" is a song that was performed during the Tokyo Dome Live Concert in July right?
YC: The person who first starting composing was Jejung. Then, because we realized that the song was suitable and followed the style of the both of us, we decided to use this as the song for our Tokyo Dome Concert solo. Also, the melody was composed by the both of us. The music of this song is something that we have not tried before and is a song that could only be completed when we are together.
JJ: As TVXQ performs a lot of songs that have the style of a minor department of black (T/N: Didn't quite get that, but I'm guessing it's R&B) so I wanted to compose a song, together with Yuchun, that everyone could enjoy together and a song that we could sing with everybody. As this song that I have previously wrote fits the image this time, we performed it at the Tokyo Dome as Jejung and Yuchun.

- Since the song was written by the both of you, how did you go about composing it?
JJ: Because no matter how busy work was, we had to cough out time to compose so I would first enter the tune into the computer and bring it to the hotel room and continue working on it.
YC: But "Colors~Melody And Harmony~" was a song that was quickly written finished with no stress at all.
JJ: If the person who wrote the song had very complicated thoughts, won't the listener feel the same way as well? However, if the composer has very simple and natural thoughts, then the content that is being shown to the listener is also very simple. Therefore, when we were composing, we were not thinking of very complicating thoughts.

- The both of you have been working together to compose and so far, what do you think of each other?
JJ: I have been criticized very strictly before. After going through a check, I also felt like I have grown a lot at the same time.

- What kind of strict criticism was it?
JJ: For example, "Why is still a song with this kind of feelings? It was like that previously too!"
YC: I was just saying that jokingly. (laughs)
JJ: Even if it was a joke, it was still quite strict. (Laughs) Yuchun is also very straight forward. If it's really good, he'll say "Very Good!" But if he's not happy with it, he would say what I said earlier. (Laughs)

- Then, regarding Yuchun's song, what are your thoughts?
JJ: Didn't he write a song called "Kiss The Baby Sky"? When I first heard that song, I suddenly thought, "Isn't he a genius?" He was able to merge loneliness as well as happiness intro a song, really surprising.
YC: Although the both of us use the same instruments but we come out with different products. Therefore, if I'm lacking something, Jejung would have it and if Jejung is lacking something, I will have it.
JJ: Mm. Yuchun is really good with instruments but in terms of his method of composing songs, it's slightly...
YC: (Laughs aloud) Compared to Jejung, my composing skills are quite lousy. Because I personally like music that is being played from a live band, so we like different styles.

- Then, because it's a rare chance to be interviewing you, can you tell us where does the charisma of each other lie as a singer?
YC: The moment you hear Jejung's sweet voice that you want to melt into, girls will be charmed immediately.
JJ: Thank you. (Laugh) For Yuchun, he has a very cool and handsome voice. It doesn't matter if it's a happy or sad song, he can portray it very well.

Part 2

- Then, for the song "Colors~Melody And harmony~", what emotions did you had when you performed it?
JJ: The only way to sing it well is when we have no troubles. Similarly, the expression and emotions we felt at that time is the most important. When you look at the face of a person you like, you'd naturally show a smile. I performed with that that kind of feeling.
YC: I, too, was very natural and performed without any stress. Just like that, it felt like I was showing the original me. Therefore, when we were performing on stage, we didn't even put on any makeup and went on stage after changing our clothes. (Laugh)
JJ: Saving money, saving money. (Laugh)

- Then, what message are you trying to give out through the lyrics?
YC: Recently, most of the songs have love as their main content and this song's contents is to pass on thanks.
JJ: I especially like this sentence, "Even if it's only for a second, I could make all the tears stop worldwide and change them into smiles."

- Did the both of you harbor this kind of feelings throughout?
JJ: Although I'm not too sure if humans can gain happiness just through a song but I think that those who hear this song will have happy emotions. Especially because this song is a relaxing tune that you can hear anytime and that is why when everyone wake up in the morning, please listen to this song while you are in the tram or bus. If it's like that, the streets might appear differently.
YC: I, too, in the morning would sit at the coffee shop and listen to music while I eat bread. If I happen to have eye contact with anyone, even if it's a stranger, I would still greet them. I would feel better afterwards.
JJ: There was this day, while I was listening to music at night, a mosquito landed on my wrist. I was thinking, "Ah, this mosquito can only live for a short period of time. Then, it's okay if I let it suck some of my blood."

- (Laughs) Even incidents like this are being treated with a caring attitude?
JJ: Right. It's all thanks to the song that me, myself even turned caring. (Laughs)

Part 3

- Next, you used the phrase "Colors" in your title...
JJ: Are you asking us what color we like? Okay, let's say it together. 1, 2, Black!
YC: White!

- If that's the case, it seems like you have been asked this a lot of times in interviews. Then, let me ask something else that is related to colors. Are the colors for the both of your rooms the same?
JJ: Ah~ This question has a lot of meaning. If you keep asking the same thing, the readers will find it annoying. By changing the thinking methods of the question, it seems more interesting.

- Thank you (Laughs). Then, please answer the question.
YC: For me, I have a lot of black shelves that contain red wine. All of them are designed by me but the cleaning up part might be slightly difficult. (Laugh)
JJ: For my room, the colors are in a mess. (Laugh)
YC: Not just the colors, the interior is also in a mess. (Laugh) This morning, when I went to Jejung's room after I woke up, I had helped to clean his room a little but his clothes are all one the bed, like a small mountain. (=_=|||)
JJ: If you want to clean it up, then you have to tidy the bed first. But, after cleaning for a little white, you won't want to do it anymore. That is why, I would run to Yuchun's room to sleep with him at night.

- (Laugh) Then, let me just ask, which room are the instruments and other things that you use to compose songs situated in?
YC: It would be goof is we had some but we don't have any in the Japan dormitory. But, I really want to build a recording schedule in Japan for us only.
JJ: When will it come true?

- Look forward to it then. Next, can you please introduce the next song "Shelter"?
YC: This song, is a song that I want to challenge the most amongst all the songs that Jejung has composed.
JJ: From the starting until the A, B, different melodies, it has a sort of dark and heavy feelings but after that, the rhythm speeds up and it feels happier. I hope everyone will look forward to this magical change.

- What message is incorporated in the lyrics?
JJ: My world can't do without you. You might not know me, but I will always pay attention to your happenings. It's a song that sounds like a stalker. (Laughs) For example, the other person might not know who you are but so long as that person is alive, you will gain a lot of strength and courage. Isn't there such incidents? We live for this and this song is sung with thankful feelings.
YC: The supposed thankful feelings are actually quite similar to "Colors~Melody And Harmony~". However, "Colors" is very innocent and sweet where "Shelter" is a song full of musical characteristics.

- It is indeed a single that sends the deep meaning of music that the both of you have. Then, the two songs are very perfect and soothing, could you please tell us the secret that the both of you have in order to sing so well?
JJ: Because I feel that so long as you like it, no matter what, you can do it and keep on working hard. But, I think, even if you don't have the right techniques, it doesn't matter. Because you like it, you will continue working hard and there would definitely produce good results. Because I was tone-deaf when I was in Secondary school, my singing was very lousy at that time but I didn't care and continued practicing.
YC: Coming from our message, harboring imagination, use your own true feelings to portray the contents of the song. Everyone can try it!

VOCAL ADVICE
JJ: Everyone, please, as sweetly, as detailedly, as quickly, perform the song "Colors~Melody And Harmony~". Even if there are no lyrics, it's also fine to just sing "Lalala". So I hope that everyone can sing this song with a relaxed and natural feeling.
YC: You have to sing it with the feeling of cleaning up your room! (Laugh)
JJ: Right. (Laugh) "Now, somewhere, there is someone cleaning up~"
YC: (Laughs aloud) I think that as compared to singing it awesomely, it is more important to sing it while you're relaxed and sitting. Please whistle, and use a happy feeling to sing this.

Korean singer Taegoon, ever since his first performance in early 2009, has received a lot of attention. Taegoon was born in the same place as TVXQ's Jaejoong, so the two's relationship is very good. Because Jaejoong appeared in Taegoon's debut music video, "Call Me", a lot of talks about him have aroused.

On September 16, Taegoon will release his Japanese photobook "Call Me/Rising Star". In the photobook, there will be the behind-the-scenes of the two MVs from his mini-albums "Call Me" and "Rising Star". There will also be a DVD showing the recording of the songs in "Rising Star".

From August 20th through September 10th, DBSK fans put an ad on one page of the HanGyuhReh newspaper.

The advertisement says, “They (DBSK) are not monkeys” along with phrases and such concerning DBSK members’ lawsuit with their entertainment agency.

Also in the ad are the words, “Don’t ask/try to find out”, “Don’t speak”, “Don’t expect answers” with a picture of a monkey tied up. Below that are the words, “DBSK are people with moral rights and decision-making powers.”

Three DBSK members Micky Yoochun (Park Yoochun), Xiah Junsu (Kim Junsu), and Youngwoong Jaejoong (Kim Jaejoong) are having some friction with their agency, SM Entertainment. They filed a lawsuit against SM last July 31st to the Seoul Central District Court regarding their unfair contract.

JJ: I want to rent an amusement park and hold a LIVE there.

JJ: We always do activities as 5 people and it feels quite unnatural since now it suddenly reduced to 2 people and I'm very shy (*^_^*)...
YC: After the first time we performed 'COLORS ~Melody and Harmony~' at the Tokyo Dome concerts, we received compliments such as 'it's very cheerful, it's very easy to remember, it's very easy to sing.' (*^_^*) Although I am the sort who will waste quite a lot of time to compose songs, I did not waste much time composing this one. I think I only started composing it before Fukuoka's concert? It was done quite quickly while I was in the waiting room working on it on the PC, it approximately took 30 minutes to complete. You could say it passed quite quickly?


YC: No matter what, I would really want to maintain good relationships with the members of THSK.

The lyrics had ' Heading towards the world that is colorul within, running towards you'. This part has quite similar meaning with the 'Hello Kitty Colors'. Red = A close relationship, Pink = cute, Yellow = care, Green = hope, Purple = trust, who do the colors refer to, to the both of them?

JJ: Red refers to the members, pink is of course Junsu! Because every move of his shows very innocent cuteness whilst Yellow represents the FANS, green represents not a person, but Tokyo Dome. I really hope to continue performing in the Tokyo Dome. Purple is.. Kitty? I knew Kitty since I was young because it has an image that seems to be protecting you, and falling into your arms, that kind of trust~
YC: Red represents...the members whom I will continue to have close relationships with in the future. The cute pink represents the FANS, yellow refers to FANS who came for the Tokyo dome concert and spent that period of time with us, green is for my brother who is 18 years old, and purple represents the staff, not only trust, but strict as well, full of the both of them.. right?

A message for the readers in their 30s.

JJ: The female Japanese in their 30s are really naive and shining. Saying 'I really like Bae Yong-Jun' in front of their husbands after they get married will forever have a normal young girl image. That way, even to me, who is in the 20s, really gives a 'too cute~' feeling. If you're under stress, listen to 'COLORS ~Melody and Harmony~ before you sleep, it would definitely help you.
YC: Now, start preparing yourself to enter the 40s. We created the song in order to give you the courage. It's oil. Please use it to ignite and increase the strength of the candles.

"Jejung and I had become friends since two years ago, but just yesterday we actually talked a lot about songs and had a pleasant time at the karaoke!"
"Yuchon was there too!

It’s hard for each of us to get such free time like this, therefore (when we have it) we’d like to play a lot!

It was the best night ~

Seoul Central District Court officer revealed on August 26th that a representative of CREBEAU (위샵플러스) cosmetic company had filed lawsuit against SM Entertainment in charge of defamation issue on August 4th.

CREBEAU representative said, “The problem that is filed by 3 members who are also investors in our company is something to do with the unfair distribution income and to terminate the exclusive contract effect. However, SM keeps distorting the essence of the issue by saying that the main reason of their lawsuit is related to the cosmetic company. This is definitely a false representation and inflicts a serious libel to our company.”
