[News] Kim Jaejoong “Able To Take The Newcomer Award?”

This year, the JYJ members have shone like a light through their solo activities. What was interesting in particular was the showdown between Park Yoochun’s portrayal of the General Manager in [Miss Ripley] and Kim Jaejoong in [Protect the Boss]. “Senior actor” Park Yoochun has given “junior” Kim Jaejoong a generous number of points.

Park Yoochun said, “Firstly, it was a very interesting drama. During the times I had a schedule and couldn’t watch it, my mum, aunt and cousin would watch it instead and they were completely addicted to [Protect the Boss].”  Giving high praise with a grin, he said, “Although I’m not in a position to critique, when you think about how I was unknowingly being drawn into the drama, he did a splendid job portraying the character.”

In response to Park Yoochun’s praise, Kim Jaejoong said “Thank you, Senior” with a modest nod at the peaceful interview location. Thus, the talk naturally shifted to the topic of the “Newcomer Award”.

Following Park Yoochun, who received the [Newcomer Actor Award] and [Netizen Award] during the [2010 KBS Drama Awards] and [2011 Seoul Drama Awards], there has been increasing interest in the possibility of Kim Jaejoong receiving a newcomer’s award. Kim Junsu and Park Yoochun said, “It’ll be good if he gets it” while Kim Jaejoong said shyly, “I’m not even thinking about it.” Kim Jaejoong said, “I was able to become better because of Jisung. Everytime I saw ‘Kim Jaejoong has improved’; this wouldn’t have happened with Jisung. Everytime, even though he’s busy studying his own character, at the same time he would study my character too and I really learnt a lot. Because I was able to match well with Jisung, it came through when watching through the TV.”

[Trans] JYJ’s Kim Junsu takes advantage of members Park Yuchun and Kim Jaejoong as PR tools?

Recently JYJ’s Park Yuchun said “people think Kim Junsu’s soccer team activities as his hobby, but in fact it’s almost like a professional athletic career [to him].”

It’s a well-known fact already that Kim Junsu has special affection for ‘FC Men’ of which he is a captain.

Park Yuchun, Kim Jaejoong along with Kim Hyun Joong, Song Joong Ki, Kim Bum, Be2sts’s Yang Yo Seob and Lee Ki Kwang also belongs to the same team.

Kim Jaejoong joke that “honestly, it’s true that I can’t participate in matches often. But [my] complaint is that Kim Junsu’s soccer team has done a lot of good work, and whenever its reported, only his name is included and our names are missing. Are we promotional tools for the team?”

Kim Junsu’s unpredictable side does not stop here. Recently, Kim Junsu appeared on a game channel and showed off his hidden talent in games. About this, Kim Jaejoong jokingly sighed, “[Junsu] appearing on a game channel when we can’t appear on TV, he is our member but really..” and about this Junsu honestly responded “I said I’d appear because it’s what I like but I thought I myself was somewhat funny after the program was over.”

On the other hand, JYJ who released the first Korean album ‘In Heaven’ will hold their first exclusive concerts in Europe at Palau Sant Jordi in Barcelona, Spain on October 29th and Tempodrom in Berlin, Germany on November 6th.

Laughing, Park Yoochun said, “The table that holds the size of my instruments hasn’t arrived yet, so nothing’s in place and everything’s a mess,” and “When it’s completed, I’m going to work hard on composing songs.”

JYJ has recently released Korean album ‘In Heaven’ which features many songs written by the members but Park Yoochun’s solo compositions couldn’t be found though he’s co-written songs with other members. Regarding this, Kim Jaejoong said, “We were planning on including Yoochun’s songs in our album, but we couldn’t this time around. We’re going to include his compositions when the the next opportunity arrives,” and by adding, “Yoochun’s songs are sensational,” he raised the anticipation for his fellow member’s songs.

[Trans] JYJ’s Kim Jae Joong boasts his ‘perfect sense of taste’ and shows pride in his cooking skills.

Kim Jae Joong revealed that “my palate would be on par with Jang Geum’s if I was born a long time ago” at the press conference for the release of their first Korean album ‘In Heaven’ on the 30th last month at a café at Jung-Dong in Seoul.

Kim Jae Joong played a role of a 2nd generation chaebol director Cha Mu Won well [literal trans “stably”]. He revealed that he did all the coooking scenes himself. Members explained that he really has excellent skills in cooking.

Jun Su said “I recommend his kimchee fried rice and 잡탕찌개 (a hot and spicy stew with various ingredients and/or leftovers) among Jae Joong ee hyung’s dishes”, and Yu Chun profusely praised “since we’re not living in a dorm any more we have few chances to taste [Jae Joong ee hyung’s] dishes he makes with all his heart poured in, but he cooks really well. Even when there are few ingredients, he can whip up delicious dishes.”

Jun Su also added an explanation, “he makes delicious dishes without [artificial] flavor enhancers. Jae Joong ee hyung seems to take pride in not using [artificial] flavor enhancers. Jae Joong joked that “my palate would be on par with Jang Geum’s if I was born a long time ago.”

JYJ released their first Korean album ‘In Heaven’ on the 15th last month. They are going to have concerts in Barcelona, Spain on 10/29 and Berlin, Germany in 11/6.
