Yoochun’s 2nd essay “Finding the Hidden Picture”



“Finding the Hidden Picture”
The bed’s already made, but I couldn’t lay down.
Without rest for too long, walking and running nonstop.
Really exhausted and hungry too,
Not able to sit down and take a rest comfortably, we couldn’t eat delicious food as well.
Resting, playing, eating, and sleeping:
Things we thought life’s necessities, we have to go through life without them.
However, it’s all nonsense.
Rather than my brain, my heart, I should..should have a simplified mind.
In fact, it’s not easy to be able to do this.
Nevertheless, I will enjoy the twist.
Since it’s life’s
Finding the hidden picture…

Park Yoochun, No. 1 Male Entertainer With The Most Miraculous Existence


T/N: “Miraculous existence” is defined as a role in which doesn't seem possible in real life, a (perfect) person which isn't supposed to exist. In terms of “con-artist,” it is defined as someone who is so perfect that it cannot possibly be true.

The netizens have selected JYJ’s Park Yoochun as the male entertainer with “The most miraculous existence, the “strongest” con-artist”.

Korean website DCinside held a poll from 25 January to 1 February, with the theme of “Who is the male entertainer with the most miraculous existence, the “strongest” con-artist?” and Park Yoochun eventually took the top spot.

Of the 27,546 people that voted, Park Yoochun received the support of 8,165 (29.6%) of the people.

Park Yoochun's handsome appearance, strapping figure, as well as exceptional vocal ability, topped off with his undeniable acting potential as shown in the television drama “Sungkyunkwan Scandal,” has caused envy among the netizens.

Park Yoochun is also fluent in 3 languages, Korean, English and Japanese. He was also awarded the No.1 spot in a previous poll for “The male artist which could best play the role of an English Translator.”

Placed in 2nd position was Kim Hyungjoon with 4,032 (14.6%) votes, and 3rd place went to Yoo Jae Suk with 3,427 (12.4%) votes.

Other people that made it on the list were TVXQ's Yunho, singer Lee Seung Gi, and Won Bin, etc.

(TRANS) 110131 Kim Junsu’s Musical Sells Out In Record Time


Kim Junsu’s perfrmances of the musical ‘Tears of Heaven’ were sold out in record time.

The last round of reservations were on the 31st at 11am, and all seats were sold out for Kim Junsu's performances in 2 minutes and 30 seconds. This is a new record for musical ticket reservations.

As there were not many seats available (4500 seats) in this third and final round and as there were around 30,000 domestic hopefuls, with an addition of fans overseas, the reservations were expected to be a ‘ticket battle’ fiercer than any other.

The first round of reservations of 10,000 seats was sold out in 5 minutes and the second round of 13,000 seats was sold out in 3 minutes and 30 seconds. In this third round, 4,500 seats were sold out in 2 minutes and 30 seconds.

Kim Junsu set the record of selling out all 17 of his ‘Tears of Heaven’ performances of 27,500 seats.

Ajhummas are sooo furious abt the MBC teaser

JIMMIE POST THIS according to this matter [the teaser to MBC's special documentary on the current situation of the Korean Wave]


Ajhummas are sooo furious about the MBC teaser... they are soo pissed off... any way here's what she said...

Apparently the teaser to MBC's special documentary on the current situation of the Korean Wave (with a special focus on idols’ disputes with their management) has just been released.  People at the JYJ Daum Telzone board are expressing worry that it is biased toward big management companies.  The ahjummas (and everyone else) are swearing that if the documentary misrepresents JYJ in any way, they will flood the MBS website and crash the server.  Then, they’ll even consider a blanket boycott on MBC (they also threatened this for SBS when SBS delayed the Good Morning show, and because of that SBS was quick to say they would release all 80 minutes on 19th-20th Jan).

And in the end, it was a very biased report.  The ahjummas are FURIOUS… we’ll see how long MBC lasts…

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

and then she add this:
another cardinal sin of MBC… the f*cktard journalist interviewed SM’s lawyer who accused JYJ of contracting with another management company (which everyone knows is not true, C-JeS is an agency hired by JYJ).  And this pathetic piece by MBC reported it like it was a fact!!

I lost the actual message but one ahjumma said, “So, MBC, it’s OK if you cuss at the government (she’s referring to the first segment on the government’s deceit vis-a-vis the UAE nuclear plant) but it’s not ok to cuss out big management companies?  What kind of investigative journalism is that?  You don’t even get your facts straight!  Now I’m not going to believe anything you say, even the stuff before about the UAE nuclear plant!”

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

this is how great ajhummas can be :

First of all, this program is an hour long investigatory journalism program. The corner on JYJ, Kara and the problem with K-ent system was only 20 min.



 1.  They reported on Kara and JYJ together, opening the segment with them, even though the two cases are not that comparable and the two groups are completely different from artistic history to contract terms to etc, etc, etc...

 2.  They formatted the segment in a way that in the end justified the management companies taking so much of JYJ + Kara’s profits…ie, they explained JYJ + Kara’s grievances in the first part and had management reps (that a**hole from Core Contents media was interviewed *vomit*) reply with “it’s because we spend so much on them for this, this, this…”in the next part. Basically, the format was:

Q (by Kara and JYJ): Why do we get so little money and so mistreated for all the work we do and profits we bring in.

A (by DSP, SM, Core Contents, etc): It’s because we have no choice but to spend $$$ on you as rookies/trainees.

The End.  Right, MBC, tell us something we DON’T know!  Well, now the entire nation knows that you ate money from SM and have neither the balls or brains to ask the difficult questions or consider an alternative to this system (that everyone ALREADY knew is screwed up!  What a waste of my 60 minutes!)!!!!

 3.  Not only is this biased reporting, it’s LAZY journalism. It’s so low-quality that it doesn't even DESERVE to be called “investigatory journalism”. Stephen Colbert does better investigatory journalism than this ****!

 4.  A good ten minutes of the segment was a marketing engine for rookie group 5 dolls. A lot of JYJ fans are like WTF?!  at this.  You dare to use JYJ’s name (then dirty it by implying that their management is in the right) for a thinly-veiled marketing ploy on behalf of a rookie girl group?
  
So now, the ahjummas are flooding the MBC message board… I hope they make MBC’s server crash!

JYJ is the Genuine Representation of Today and Tomorrow’s Hallyu (Korean Wave)


By chupa**** of Daum JYJ Telzone Gallery (Jan. 29 2011)
*Translator’s note: On 30th Jan. 2011, MBC plans to broadcast a special report on the Korean Wave. Hearing of this, Korean JYJ fans flooded the MBC public message board with requests that the report feature JYJ and that it doesn’t compromise or distort JYJ or their activities in any way. What follows below is a message left on the MBC public message board that I found especially powerful and moving.
Giant idol management companies and the associations formed to protect their interests are playing the Hallyu card. But, the Hallyu that they speak of and defend is not the pride of the Korean people but our shame. If Hallyu means using the dreams of the young to violate their human rights, if that is what is necessary for Hallyu to progress, it is a disgrace to our entire country. As an adult (Translator’s note: she’s an auntie), how am I supposed to show my face? A genuine Hallyu must be one that doesn’t oscillate with trends even after a long time but comes to fundamentally embody [our] culture.
You must have heard of the expression, ‘to sell rice before the harvest’ (Translator’s note: the English equivalent would be ‘to put the cart before the horse’). These idol management companies are doing just that, in a way that violates laws and playing with human beings no less. They rail about being betrayed and talk of their good graces [toward their idols], but have they ever worked with a mindset friendly to social welfare for the realisation of dreams? Scooping up talented children and youth then using their dreams and lives to secure corporate interests does not count.
Have you actually heard JYJ’s music?
Before you broadcast your piece, I highly recommend that you listen to JYJ’s songs.
They are the genuine alternative.
In entertainment programmes that push into the citizens’ faces perilously under-dressed minors and make sick perverts of us all, I have no interest. I want to see genuine singers and artists; I want to focus on the melody and the lyrics. It’s no wonder the giant management companies are afraid of JYJ: these three youths are talented, hard-working, sincere and never give up in the face of difficulties. It is now time for our entertainment industry to undergo the same kind of change. To the Korean people, who have always overcome life’s hardships with music and singing, GIVE US GENUINE SONGS!!!!
[JYJ] have what’s needed to unite people of all ages and expand our popular music to the rest of the world. Don’t block them.
I sincerely hope that broadcasting representatives have at least a little foresight.
As an adult, I’m cheering on JYJ because I do not want to stand ashamed in front of the generation that will replace us.
I therefore request that you release a broadcast that is filled with sincerity/integrity.
