Mnet Invited TVXQ For Their Year-end Awards

On the 16th, it was revealed by Mnet’s office that they have invited TVXQ, whose members are in the midst of a legal dispute with their management company, to attend their year-end awards “Mnet Asian Music Award” (hereafter known as MAMA). This year’s MAMA will be held on the 21st November, Seoul, Jamsil Gymnasium.

Their office said, “MAMA’s aim is to show the rest of Asia Korea’s culture” and “the award ceremeony will be aired across the 10 main countries in Asia, like Japan, China, Malaysia, Singapore and Thailand, where TVXQ is the best artist. Thus, Korea’s top artist cannot be excluded from the invitation.”

On MAMA’s end, they have expressed interest in inviting TVXQ to attend their awards. On the 16th, they said that they would get in touch with TVXQ’s management to see whether it would be possible for them to attend or not. However, TVXQ’s company, SM Entertainment has declared that they would not be attending MAMA, so a lot of attention has been cast on TVXQ to see whether or not they will attend.

An official from the KPOP industry said, “Last month, the courts approved a partial injunction to the 3 members’ exclusive contract with the company, and the 3 members are allowed to participate in their own individual activities” and “while we hope that all 5 members can attend together, the possibility of only the 3 members attending is high”.

MAMA is holding their award ceremony on the 21st, which was originally the date of TVXQ’s concert in China. However, SM Entertainment claimed that, “The 3 members expressed that they did not wish to participate in the concert that was to be held on the 21st, and the remaining performances are uncertain.” In contrast, the 3 members’ side claimed that “From the beginning, the China concert (Shenzhen) was not in the contract.”

A representative from a company for idol groups said, “SM Entertainment and the 3 members have differing opinions, and the dispute is becoming more serious. Disbandment might be inevitable.”

What's In - THSK Special Interview (TVXQ/DBSK/Tohoshinki/東方神起/동방신기)

Introduction

Based on the album, , that was released in March, they are currently holding their national tour, which will be attended by 250,000 people. During the tour, they announced that their new single, , will be released on 1st July, and the song's preview has been released. Sure to be a big hit, this sad love song is the continuation of the popular single , which was released last year.

Besides this, it has been decided that the encore and final performance will be held in the Tokyo Dome on 4th and 5th July; their first time performing there. Just like the album, a more mature Tohoshinki with fantastic dance moves, excellent vocal abilities and hot dance stages will be presented during the Live.

Tohoshinki Special Interview

Following last year's , it's another sad love song this summer. The song, destined to be popular, has been completed, and from the 5's vocals, you can hear their thoughts... thinking of their most important "You".

-- is a sad love song. I thought at first that this year's Summer single will be a light-hearted Summer song, so I was a little surprised.

CM: You thought that it would be a single similar to right?

JS: But last year, the song that we released, , was a mid-tempo song~.

--Because last year's release was , so I thought this year's would be a light-hearted Summer single.

YC: bu~~~bu~~~ (imitating a police siren?!) Your expectations are incorrect (laughs). But and are both mature, mid-tempo songs.

YH: It's different from the songs Tohoshinki have sung so far, and the male lead's age is also a little older than that of .

JJ: Although and are both songs about breaking up, if I compare and place myself in the male lead's shoes, the feeling that the female lead in is "too much" is more, as she didn't even say goodbye before she left. To experience this kind of break up, the sadness is doubled I guess.

--But maybe the female lead didn't have a change to say goodbye before leaving?

JJ: But from a man's point of view, no matter what the situation, I would want to know the reason. There are some men who are unable to forget even after the break up - there's that kind of feeling.

JS: Although he really felt like crying, the male lead repressed his feelings and did not cry. It made me feel like it's very real. This male lead is a mature man, no matter how hurt and how sad he is, he does not shed tears.

YC: I think the lyricist, as a man, put these kind of indescribable feelings into the lyrics, as there are some men who no matter how much they miss the other, are not able to verbalise it.

--The part Changmin sings "I can't continue this difficult journey forward holding on to these sad feelings~~", it's trying to say that you hope that the male lead can let it go, even if it's just a little, right?

CM: Yes. Although he won't be able to forget his girlfriend, he can make changes to his emotional state. When we were recording the song, not only did we want to capture the man's heart-broken feelings, but we wanted to capture the change within that as well, so we took extra care when singing.

JS: In order to show the reality of the feelings, we sang it many times.

YH: These kind of lyrics, because of the feelings and the way we sing it, it will make the performance of the song different as well.

JS: It's because the feelings are real, that's why it will move you; singing the lyrics just as if we were speaking it.

CM: That's right, the lyrics are quite realistic. For example, hoping to see her name appear when the phone rings, I'm sure everyone has experienced that in real life.

YH: When you see a back similar to your girlfriend's and it reminds you of her, that's very real too! So, not just for men, but women who have experienced a sad love as well as a break up would be able to understand that feeling too.

JJ: No matter how old we are, this is a song that we can keep singing; that's how real the lyrics are and they also represent a man's heart at the same time. Our experiences in future will also definitely coincide with what the lyrics represent.

YC: If there's a chance, I'd like to sing an "answer song" that shows the female lead's feelings.

CM: That's not a bad idea.

YH: It's a fresh idea, a Tohoshinki break up song that shows the female lead's point of view.

--Before the CD hits the stands, you've performed this during your Live tour. How does it feel to sing this during the Live?
CM: I hope that we can show everyone the true meaning of the lyrics. To be able to show the depth of feelings.

YC: I hope to tell all the women in the Lives that the men they loved in the past could still hold the same feelings, and have not forgotten them.

JJ: For this song, men and women will feel differently towards it. I could tell by seeing everyone's expressions while singing it during the Lives.

YH: On the men's faces, you can see the "Yes! It's that feeling!" expression. Maybe they didn't even realize it themselves.

JS: The females will have the "thinking of the past" expression. Maybe they didn't realize it too. (Laughs)

YH: When singing this song, we would look at everyone's expressions carefully, so everyone, please be careful! (Laughs)

JJ: Actually, for the 5 of us, our expressions change too. As we gradually feel the depth of the lyrics, it's as if we become the male lead, having been dumped... so please look carefully at our expressions too. (Laughs)

YC: The male lead of this song is not just the 5 of us, but also everyone listening to it.

--The second song is as if the male lead in is about to find new love. Finally finding a new relationship, ready to be released from the pain.

JJ: This is a love song full of sweet happiness.

CM: It's a song full of happiness, emulating that which a pair of lovers experience together.

JS: "No matter how much I love you, I'm afraid it's not enough" - This kind of male lead is superb.

--"Your presence makes me strong, yet weak at the same time" - This line is really great!

YC: When we were in our teens we thought there's nothing to be scared of when it comes to love, therefore the teenage us who can't really understand, would not have been able to perform this song.

JJ: As a man, I'm envious of the male lead. Envious that he has someone worthy of loving so much.

JS: When singing this song, the feeling is warm and touching, even the pain slowly fades away...

YC: Isn't that 's lyrics?

JS: Ah, I've been found out? But it's really really really true~~~ It's with this feeling that I seriously sang this song.

CM: Junsu really keeps saying "really".

JS: I really really think this way~~

YC: I hope that this story will one day become .

--If the 2 of them get married and have children, the family will grow...

JS: I hope that these 2 will always be happy!

--Well, lastly, how about everyone share their feelings on being able to stand on the stage of the Tokyo Dome?

JJ: Previously, we appeared as special guests in Koda Kumi's Live at the Dome. Although we only sang one song, we felt really great, and we'll never forget that feeling. If we can feel that way just singing one song, to have our own concert at the Tokyo Dome, the feelings must be even better! I'm really looking forward to it!

CM: As artistes who are trying to grow in Japan, to be able to perform at the Tokyo Dome has been our dream all along. Working so hard for this dream and finally achieving it, we're really happy. To stand and perform on such a huge stage in the Dome, we'll make sure to deliver and not let you down!

JS: If we keep working towards our dreams, never giving up, it will definitely come true. I want to stand on the stage and do my best dancing and singing.

YH: Now, we are full of confidence. We're also considering a new performance, we hope to have a performance that can only be accomplished within the Dome, and hope that through this, everyone can witness Tohoshinki's new charm.

YC: It's such a huge arena, there'll be 50,000 people attending, and I hope to send Tohoshinki's songs to each and every one of them. So, please cheer for us! Let the Tokyo Dome resound with the voices of Tohoshinki and you!

TVXQ vs. SM Entertainment Trial Begins (TVXQ/DBSK/Tohoshinki/東方神起/동방신기)

Three members of TVXQ – Hero Jae-jung, Xia Jun-su, and Micky Yu-cheon – want to part with their management agency SM Entertainment, but do not wish to break up the team. In a hearing held at the Seoul District Court late Friday morning the three members’ legal representative from the law firm Shin & Kim (also known as Sejong Law Firm) spoke about how the group’s contract is unfair and how the profit has not been distributed properly. SM Entertainment countered it by claiming that the agency incurred loss for four straight years while the members were in training and the profit payment was carried out fair and square.

During the hearing the lawyer said that the three members want to move to another agency, but also want to continue on their careers as TVXQ. The Shin & Kim lawyer cited another long-running K-pop group, Shinhwa, as an example of group members belonging to different agencies, yet working together.

The hearing reportedly went on with both sides fiercely arguing their positions. The court said that a mediation period can be set aside, if the two parties agreed, and recommended that the two parties settle the case to wrap up the proceeding quickly. Meanwhile, 120 thousand of TVXQ fans have filed a petition against SM Entertainment’s unfair long-term contract to the Seoul District Court on Thursday.

#4 TVXQ's KoreAn Albums

TVXQ has officially released their fourth album, Mirotic, only a few days ago but even before then it has hit number 1 on the charts. I’m glad they’re back in Korea again so they can put these fake talentless boy bands to shame.

The new album is title Mirotic which is the combination of a coined Korean word “miro” and the English word “tic”. The word “miro” means “lost or maze” which has lead people to believe the definition is the feeling of being wrapped in love with no way out.

Listening to the entire album, I was more of a fan of the slow songs (especially Jae Joong’s solo) over the upbeat ones although “Wrong Number” and “Crazy Love” were one of my favorites. I really enjoyed the entire album with its techno pop feel; definitely a hit for a comeback album.

More Informations on Micky
middle-low vocal part of the group. Along with Xiah, he is the middle voice of the group. Is an important figure that brightens up the mood and atmosphere with his funny personality. Perhaps he couldn't hide his talent even when he was little, for he won the highest award at the Korean/American Music Contest and the KBN Music Contest for young adults. Is very interested in composing and wrote over 100 songs, and the members personally like his song the best out of the ones the members composed. Joined the team last year and left his family in America, and he admits that he sometimes misses driving around Virginia. But he says that this moment, right now, is the happiest of his life.

Park yoochun was the last member added to the band one year before the debut. Park Yoochun grew up in Seoul and immigrated to the United States with his parents (who eventually divorced because of money shortages) when he was in the sixth grade. He lived in Fairfax, Virginia for roughly four years before he auditioned for Brothers Entertainment and was sent to Korea to SM Entertainment. Micky was Park's English nickname when he lived in Virginia. As the winner of a talent show, he was granted the opportunity to sign with SM Entertainment in Korea. He now performs under the stage name Micky Yoochun.



Micky Yoochun's English is pretty good. Its because he lived in the states when he was Young. Yoochun immigrated to Virginia where his uncle lived when he was in elementary school (6th grade). In 2001, at a song festival, he won the daesang and started to spread his name around. Last Year in a Youth music festival, he recieved a special award and because of that, he caught one of SM's recruiting teams attention. Yoo Chun's piano skills and song writing skills are great. He has written over 100 songs now. He has good taekwondo skills too. In elementary school he represented the state's taekwondo team and performed with them on 'Children's day". Micky Yoochun who has lots of talents, recently announced that he gave up his U.S citizenship. It was to concentrate on his singing career. In order to keep up with the U.S citizenship he has to go to the states 2 or 3 times in a year. So it would be hard to peform in Korea all the time. Yoochun has announced that when he becomes an adult, he is going to join the army with DBSG members.

Jae Joon Biography and history :

Hero was born as Han Jaejoon (한재준, 韓在俊) in Gongju, Chungcheongnam-do, South Korea. At a young age, Hero was given up for adoption by his birth mother to the Kims and his name was changed to Kim Jaejoong. When he was sixteen, he moved to Seoul by himself in order to take part in the auditions held by SM Entertainment. Life in Seoul proved to be hard for Hero and he had to take various odd jobs to come up with the ₩150,000 needed for the rent. He once took on a role as a soldier in the movie Taegeukgi Hwinallimyeo (태극기 휘날리며); with the money he acquired from the job he used the money to buy gum, which he sold to a female employee at a supermarket.

On December 26, 2003, he debuted with TVXQ at a BoA and Britney Spears showcase under the name a fortune teller foretold years before: YoungWoong JaeJoong. Youngwoong means "hero" in Korean, hence his international name, Hero. Jaejoong also had picked the name Hero because he wanted to be the hero of the music industry. Jaejoong was selected from an audition of 5000 people. Jaejoong won first place, both in best looking and best vocals. That made him the main vocal of TVXQ.



He was born with the blood-type O and has the personality of someone with the blood type. Is the main vocal of the group, and is carrying out the role of the "big brother" with Yunho. He gives the most criticisms to the members regarding music. Has deep thoughts and talks straight-forwardly. His neat and tidy personality is portrayed in the dorm they live in. Cleaning every corner of the house is blatantly a part of this trait, but he also is interested in cooking and feeds everyone in the group. Is the 'mother' of the group. Exceptional cooking skills and can prepare 15 kinds of dishes easily. Won the best looking award from SM and is a pretty boy, but his hobby is weight training -- he has a great, masculine body in contrast to his feminine face. Is interested in people's relationships and likes to love.

YoungWoong Jaejoong has good cooking skills. Right now he cooks for his members. He improved his cooking skills while preparing for his debut also his parent's contribution was the biggest. Jaejoong's parents own a restaurant in ChoongNam KwangJoo. JaeJoong went through lots of hardship. He did lots of part-time jobs from working in a convenience store, delivering chicken, newspaper delivery, manual labor, theres nothing he has never done. YoungWoong also appeared in the movie 'Taeguki wa Hweenalli myuh' (waving the korean flag) as an extra. But its really difficult to find him in the movie. He appeared as one of the chinese soliders.



JaeJoong's special talent is his husky voice. But the one thing he likes the most is his eyebrows. Jaejoong said when Song SuHun sees his eyebrows he is going to bow. When he was young his dream was to be a supermarket owner; because you can eat a lot of cookies all you want.

An aquarius born in 1988, his blood type is B. Is greedy when it comes to music, so sometimes cries when he isn't satisfied with his singing.

Can be honest and blunt when he strongly believes that something should not be done. Though shy at first, he is a very bright boy when you get to know him well. Followed his friend to an SM contest and luckily won the Best Singer award.
