More members of Super Junior stand up to SM Entertainment?



While the fact that Hankyung has decided to take legal actions against SM Entertainment is true without a doubt, we have also received tips about a rumor that five more members of Super Junior are joining Hankyung in filing lawsuits against SME. Those five members are Kangin, Eunhyuk, Leeteuk, Donghae and Yesung, according to sina.com, a Chinese online news portal.

Another rumour claims that Super Junior M will temporarily disband and Henry will pursue individual project by teaming up with Zhang Li Yin.

These are rumours that should be received with high dose of skepticism as no Korean news sources have reported on this matter

Super Junior’s Donghae shares his feelings on Cyworld [updated]

UPDATE:

SM Entertainment has revealed through a phone call with Newsen on the 22nd, "Donghae's writing posted on his minihompy was written before Hankyung filed in the lawsuit. The message was actually towards their own personal situations."

Looks like this post occurred before the Hankyung situation broke out to the public - do you think that means this message was totally unrelated, or an omen to the scandal?

<3 Super Junior’s Donghae shares his feelings on Cyworld

Earlier, Kyuhyun of Super Junior shared his feelings regarding Hankyung's contract controversy and subsequently shut down his Cyworld. Now it looks like fellow member Donghae has something to say as well.

Donghae just wrote on Eunhyuk's minihompy,

Frustrated..Depressed..I have no strength..You?


For all we know, this may have nothing to do with Hankyung, but the coincidence of all of these questionable Cyworld messages is enough to catch many people's attention. What do you think?

Interview with Hankyung’s legal representatives

We've previously reported that Hankyung of Super Juniorrequested that his contract be voided. Daily Joongang of Korea tried to reach Hankyung but was unable to reach him as he is currently in China. Instead, they were able to speak with his legal representatives.

- We heard that two separate actions were taken.
"To put it simply, the first action seeks to relieve him from the unfair contract and the second action asks to suspend the contract until the decision is made for the first one so that Hankyung may act on his individual will for the time being."

- When did Hankyung start planning on this action?
"We cannot answer that. We can only answer within the boundaries of what is described on the file."

- His arguments are the same as that of the three members of TVXQ / DBSK?
"Very similar. Hankyung also has 13 year contract with unfair terms."

- Did Hankyung have any contacts with the three members?
"We're not sure. He will soon release an official statement so wait for that."

- Has the date for the first trial been decided yet?

"The file did not even fully go through yet. DBSK's case took about two and a half months until a partial ruling was given and we expect about the same amount of time to be taken for this case. DBSK's case had numerous negotiations for settlements and couple trials so it took longer than usual. We hope that Hankyung's case would not be so long."

- Does Hankyung want to continue as Super Junior or does he want out?
"We don't know. Nothing has been decided in terms of Super Junior."

- We heard that he is preparing for solo activities in China.
"We haven't heard anything about that."

Super Junior Interview After Golden Disc Awards: “I feel bad for TVXQ disbanding crisis”


- only translate the part that is related to TVXQ -



Lee-teuk “I feel bad for TVXQ disbanding crisis”

- To be able to finally escape from the shadow of TVXQ, is that maybe the reason of your tears?

“TVXQ might have debuted a little earlier than us, but when it comes to age, they’re my dongsaengs. In fact, TVXQ is a subject at which SuJu has been so envious. Watching the feature of them jumping as the best group in the world only from aside, there was a thought ‘when will our turn be?”

- In relation to that, do you really care about the disbanding crisis of TVXQ?

“Sure, it hurts me too. They’re all my good dongsaengs. Especially Junsu. I’ve been knowing him for 3-4 years since our high school trainee, he has been a friend and a hoobae who shared happiness and sorrow with me. He consulted to me when he faced a difficult problem. I feel that we’re the same and don’t have much difference. I really want them to compromise their hearts to each other.

[News] 091211 TVXQ Beats Big Bang in Overwhelming KO Victory


TVXQ won over Big Bang in martzzang battle with an overwhelming KO victory.

[Trans] 091212 Masato Matsuura Mail to His Friendlist

Good morning. This is AVEX president Matsuura.
I woke up at 7:47 and by now had finished reading all the messages and comments.
I also thought to myself why it becomes like this,
Frankly, I think everyone must have been thinking “hey, stop fooling us”

If only I could, I really want to help you calming down even just a little bit

Looking back the past 5 years
Thinking of anything I’m able to do, I’ve been supporting
them.
I did all of those, because I really like
them

I will not forget the impression when I first met them
I remember I said to Lee Soo-man when they’re introduced to me, “I’m going to be their producer.”
They didn’t speak Japanese at all at the moment, so maybe
they didn’t remember this.
However eventually, I started to be busy as a president
So rather than being
their producer, I’m merely only backing them up

At the beginning of last year a-nation I made promise to them
“I promise that
you’ll be performing at Music Station” although I’m not actually a qualified man to make such promise (T/N: since he doesn’t have any influence in MS)

The joy they showed to me, I will never forget that

Because I never can forget that, I started working like a dog doing all my best
So did the staffs

And when they had just appeared for the very first time, after the program
I still remember the words
those five members told me at that time
They kept taking turns on the phone, thanking me
I can not forget that

Nevertheless, why…

My tears were also falling down and I couldn’t write anymore
This feeling which doesn’t have a place to convey should have been carried out somewhere…

However, it’s a self punishment for myself that it’s all because my incompetence

Matsuura Masato
masato max matsuura

PS. I might update my blog on the weekend, I’ll be grateful if you read it without thinking “This is such a poor person”.

……………………………….

Today’s messages is dedicated for fans of 'particular artist'
If I write this on my blog, the media will pick it up to make some stories
That’s why I need to write it here.

Please forgive me.

Dissension within TVXQ? Canceled Big East fan meeting

By now, many people already know about the ongoing struggle of the trio of Jaejoong, Micky, and Xiah Junsufrom TVXQ / DBSK / Tohoshinki with SM Entertainmentin Korea. Many fans, especially Big East (TVXQ's Official Japanese Fan Club) were convinced that TVXQ would continue on as Tohoshinki in Japan with no issues, Avexpretty much said so. However, recently there's been some signs of trouble in Japan.

Most notably, the most anticipated 4th Big East fan club meeting being canceled.
The reason for the cancellation was because Tohoshinki stated that they wanted to be honest and couldn't stand in front of their fans and put on fake smiles, fake happiness. They want to meet fans when they can truly smile once again. There's been rumors flying around that this proves that their is dissension and problems within the group. Adding further fuel to the fire were the lack of communication and very awkward situation between Jaejoong / Micky / Xiah and Yunho / Changmin in their recent performances in Japan. It also doesn't help matters when Changmin and Yunho previously stating that they're in support of SM Entertainment.

Hopefully if this is true they can quickly patch things up. They have such a great thing going, and I wouldn't want to see all the hard work they put in together to go to waste. Always keep the faith, now more than ever.

Super Junior and SNSD celebrates together with TVXQ Yunho

SM Entertainment groups Super Junior and Girls' Generation / SNSD, who recently collaborated for Seoul Song got together recently and celebrated after a successful evening for both parties at the 2009 Golden Disk Awards. Super Junior won the award for Disk Daesang while SNSD won the award for Digital Daesang.

After the award show, the two groups took off their makeup, wore casual clothing and showed up at a Korean BBQ Galbee 2 story restaurant in the Gangnam district of Seoul. About 50 total people showed up and they reserved the whole 2nd floor to themselves. There was a lot of crying and hugging between the two groups as they showed a brother-sister type bond at the late-night meal celebration.

Usually there would be a lot of alcohol with soju, beer, and wine served for such an occasion, but because of the combination of the Kangin incident, under-aged members, and Super Junior having to get ready for a concert in Naning, China on December 12th, they decided to do cheers with regular soda drinks instead. The total bill for the food totaled around $1400. SM representative Kim Young Min along with TVXQ memberYunho also joined in on the festivities and congratulated both groups. Fans of both groups waited until 3AM at the entrance of the restaurant to get a glimpse of their idols. Because of the dedication shown by these fans, some Super Junior members went out to greet them, give handshakes, and autographs.

This is pretty cool and shows the bond between the two groups.

[ARIRANG NEWS 091208] DBSK COMEBACK NEXT YEAR COULD BE CANCELLED

[Trans] 091208 Shin Seung Hyun: “TVXQ Can’t Disband”

“TVXQ can’t disband…”

Old-timer Shin Seung Hyun (singer) expressed his regrets towards the crisis of disbandment that his juniors TVXQ are currently facing.

At a recent press conference, after expressing his curiousity regarding “what will become of TVXQ”, Shin Seung Hyun sighed and said, “A group like this can’t disband…”.

Shin Seung Hyun, who also enjoys tremendous popularity in Japan, said this about TVXQ who have developed into top singers, “When they appeared on the billboards in Tokyo, I felt such pride. In Japan, TVXQ are not Hallyu stars. Instead, they are the top singers in Japan, and receive a lot of love from everyone.”

He also said, “It is very rare to have this kind of group, it would be such a waste if they disband.”

[News] 091208 Too Many People On At Once Causes Three Members’ Charity Fanmeeting Ticket Reservation Site To Crash

The fanmeet of TVXQ’s Xiah Junsu, YoungWoong Jaejoong and Micky Yoochun is garnering explosive popularity.

The server of Yes24 crashed when the site opened ticket reservations for the charity fanmeet that is to be held on the 12th at 8 pm.

The three members will be greeting their fans at the Love Sharing Meeting ‘Smile Again’ at Koryeo University’s Hwajung Gymnasium. This event that will last around an hour will be a large fan meeting capable of holding more than 5000 people.

Yes24 officially stated the three members’ attendance and said, “‘Smile Again’, which works with a children’s organization, was created to gift the fans with happy times from creating memories with Jaejoong, Yoochun and Junsu through a charitable event.”

This event is free of charge and all the money that is collected from donations will be given to a children’s organization. ‘Smile Again’ will be an event held by only the three members, there will be no guest appearances. Donation boxes will be set up around the gymnasium and all the money will be donated.

As the three members submitted a provisional disposition against SM Entertainment, and the dispute is yet to be solved, it will be hard for all five members to attend the fan meeting.

Many are wondering when TVXQ will return to all stand on one stage together in Korea as U-Know Yunho and Choikang Changmin returned to Korea from Japan separately from the other three members after finishing their Japanese schedule.

Kim So Eun doesn’t want to date Kim Bum


During the recent Pusan International Film Festival, Chinese portal site, Sohu met up with Kim So Eun for an interview in Korea.

During the interview, So Eun once again crushed the hearts of So-Eul fans around the world by saying it was impossible between her and on-screen partner Kim Bum.

She also shared with us about what has changed for her after Boys Over Flowers and much more.

Super Junior’s “Sorry Sorry - Answer” MV to be released this week

Back in March, Super Junior made their anticipated comeback with Sorry Sorry, and proceeded to sweep into the kpop scene and claim the hearts of many fans both new and old. Even after the promotions ended, people couldn't get enough of this track, and yesterday it was revealed that the popular idol group would be returning with a Sorry Sorry - Answer remix and Super Junior THE 2ND ASIA TOUR CONCERT ALBUM Super Show 2 album on the 9th and 10th, respectively.

But that's not all - today it was confirmed that on December 10, Super Junior's official website would unveil the music video for Sorry Sorry - Answer to the public. The filming, which took place in Namyangju, Gyeonggi, was led by studio director Chun Hyuk Jin, who has directed many other music videos for SM Entertainment.

Similar to the original Sorry Sorry music video, Sorry Sorry - Answer will have a monochrome concept with primarily black, white and brown hues, and promises a simple yet sensational display for fans to enjoy.

kim s0 eun~

Q: Chinese fans also want Ga Eul and Yi Jeong to be together. What do you think of Kim Bum? Is there a possibility for further development?


A: (Laughs) A lot of people tell me that. However Bummie and I college friends, and we have known each other for a while. Therefore I don’t feel that way about him, and we’re just good friends. (More laughs) I hope everyone else can think this way too.

Q: If you like someone in real life, would you secretly like him or confess straight out? If you got rejected like in boF, what would you do?

A: There is the difference between Ga Eul and So Eun. I’m not the type of person who would confess, but rather keep my feelings to myself. Ga Eul is the opposite. When she finds the person she likes, she is strong and will confess to that person and try to earn his love. After acting this role, my outlook on love seems to change a little as well.

Q: Do you have any new projects after “The Man Who Can’t Get Married”?


A: At this moment I’m still looking through the offers, hopefully I can meet you guys in my new project. Please wait a while longer.

Q: What do you like to do in your free time?


A: I like to exercise, read, study, and sometimes look at movies and dramas to practice acting. Sometimes I also go out with friends to play. I’m not only an actress. In real life I’m not different from girls my age.

Q: Within the actress circle, who are you close friends with? Is Kim So Eun’s personality like Chu Ga Eul?


A: The popular Geum Jan Di. Unnie and I have a good relationship. And I’m good friends with Go Ara, who goes to the same university.

Q: Do you like any Chinese celebrities or directors?

A: I like Jay Chou, who acted in “Secret”. Do you like him too? (Laughs) I really like him and I enjoyed that movie. I think he’s very amazing, being able to take on many professions such as actor, director, and singer, and he does everything so well. Therefore I admire him.

Q: Lastly, what would you like to say to your Chinese fans?

A: Thank you for coming to Korea to interview me, and thank you for enjoying “Boys Over Flowers”. I think we would be able to meet in a new project very soon, so please patiently wait a little longer. I hope you all can continue to like me. Thank you!

TVXQ Trio to “Smile Again” with a fan meeting

We reported on a circulating rumor of TVXQ's Jaejoong,Yoochun, and Junsu holding their own secret fanmeeting quite a while ago, and the specific information toward this extravagant event have just been confirmed.

This fan meeting will be titled
"Smile Again" and will be hosted by Yes24; it will take place on the 12th at 5 PM (KST) in a gymnasium in Korea University. Over than six thousand fans are expected to fill the bleachers to see these three boys once again.

Optional entrance fees will be collected from the fans during the event, and all the money will be donated to the charity for children. The trio has also agreed to this donation, and decided to earn no profit out of this event.

Unfortunately, the trio will not be attending under the name of TVXQ / DBSK / Tohoshinki for this meeting, but just their individual names of Jaejoong, Junsu, and Yoochun. They have decided the team name should not be mentioned, since the rights to use such title are fully reserved to all five members, and not just three. JaeChunSu will also not be singing any of the TVXQ songs during the meeting, due to the possibility of sparking another dispute over their rights to. Instead, the event will be filled with carol singing, and mostly interacting directly with the fans.

A representative revealed,

The date and location have been confirmed, however the time and the schedule of the event can be changed. Exact information will be arranged as soon as the three members arrive back in Korea from their activities in Japan.


The tickets for Smile Again will be available through Yes24's official homepage on the 8th starting from 8 PM. The price is free, however there is a limit of only one per person.

Tokunaga Hideaki has a crush on TVXQ’s Jaejoong?


With a fanclub of over 800,000 members, it'd be an understatement to say that TVXQ is widely loved by both typical individuals and celebrities alike; recently, Tokunaga Hideaki, a Japanese performer who participated in FNS Music Festival with the boys, praised the fivesome for their hard work and performances.

When TVXQ asked the famous singer to perform his track Rainy Blue with them, the group revealed their love for the song. "[The members] worked hard to use Japanese to communicate with me," the singer expressed. "[They are all] really handsome, especially Jaejoong; with that beauty looking at me ... my heart speed up [to the point] that I wanted to hug him. If I were a girl, there is no doubt that I would fall for him.

Gals, note this before you pull out your pitchforks: Tokunaga's a straight man, and later clarified that he didn't have such tendencies, so you're safe (for now)!

The compliments for the group didn't end there. “They don’t have just beautiful features , their heart and actions are as pure as snow,” Tokunaga expressed. “Even though I have meet other handsome guys up until today, but Tohoshinki really are wonderful guys.

Aww, how sweet... who doesn't love TVXQ?

Welcome to the Xiah Junsu Village!

Have you ever wished to visit a town all about TVXQ? Well you can, sort of. Okay maybe not exactly but you can go to ‘Xiah Junsu Village’ in Cambodia!

Adra Korea, an international development and relief agency, has recently been working on a disaster relief project in Cambodia in a small village just an hour off of Phnom Penh. This village also happens to be the poorest in all of Cambodia. With more than thirty houses lined along the dirty waters of the nearby river, Adra Korea is working hard to improve the living conditions for the children who reside there. However, Adra Korea is not alone in this restoration project. Who might be helping them bring hope to the children of this small town, you ask? If you guessed the Cassiopeians, you’re correct!

TVXQ’s generous fan club, otherwise known as Cassiopeia, has been involved in numerous charity projects previously and this is just another one they that they can be proud to be a part of. In celebrating Xiah Junsu’s upcoming birthday on January 1st, the Cassies donated a large amount of money under his name to support the cause. And although Xiah Junsu and TVXQ are unknown to the people residing there, because of the gracious donation, the village has been named ‘Xiah Junsu Village.’


It’s heartwarming to see how amongst all the chaotic fans, we also see humble and generous ones! Girls and boys, learn from these Cassies! It is afterall, the season for giving!

TVXQ Jaejoong declines IRIS offer?


Did TVXQ / DBSK / Tohoshinki's Jaejoong decline an offer to join the roster of the hit drama IRIS? Apparently so, according to some rumored reports.

Jaejoong recently showed off his acting prowess in the telecinema project Heaven's Postman and the people in charge of IRIS thought it would be a good idea to bring the top prince in Japan on board. The IRIS producers originally planned Jaejoong to appear in the final episode of season 1 (episode 20) and then have him as a full time member for Season 2.

However, for undisclosed reasons Jaejoong declined on the offer. I'm guessing it's because he's going to be very busy with his Japanese promotions with his TVXQ mates. Unfortunately, joining Jaejoong in declining a chance to appear on season 2 is the main star of IRIS Lee Byung Hun as a second season of IRIS would conflict with his G.I. Joe 2 filming schedule. Even though Lee Byung Hun is reportedly earning near $100,000 per episode of IRIS, Hollywood has some deep pockets. It's pretty sad news for me personally... because to me, Lee Byung Hun is basically the whole show.

It's pretty cool that Jaejoong was offered the role, I wonder what type of role he would've played? Probably some rogue assassin, something similar to T.O.P (Vick) of Big Bang. But if I were Jaejoong I would watch my back, just for declining the offer, the NSS should come hunting for him... he should ask Lee Byung Hun for tips, because he's good at avoiding them.

[News]TVXQ Selected as The “Japan Record Taisho (Award) Grand Prix” candidate!

TVXQ is selected to be the candidate of the grand prix award winner of “Japan Record Taisyo (Award)”.

The Korea finance and economy newspaper reports:

“Doshite Kimiwo Sukininatte Shimattandaro”.
That records TVXQ to recieve this award for the two consecutive years sequentially.
The announcement was made on December 1st, 2009.

W-inds featuring G-Dragon, “Rain Is Fallin” won the “Excellent Best Music Award” as well,
and it was also chosen as a grand prix candidate.

TVXQ accused of yet another fraud

We had previously reported that CreBeau, the cosmetics company known for their involvement in the TVXQ controversy, got sued in China by a company that used to distribute their products in the Shanghai region. Now, CreBeau's Da Lia region distributor decided to do the same.

According to the plaintiff, Jaejoong, Yoochun and Junsu of TVXQ urged the plaintiff to distribute their cosmetics products claiming that they are shareholders of CreBeau and will personally take part in product promotion in the Da Lia region. The members did not show up for promotion and distributors from other regions informed the plaintiff that the CreBeau office has disappeared, forcing the plaintiff to sue CreBeau for fraud in order to compensate damage that they suffered. The plaintiff's claim is very similar to that of the Shanghai region distributor's, who also claimed that they suffered damage because TVXQ members falsely promised to show up for promotions and CreBeau's office disappeared.

Did the three members really commit fraud with false promises of showing up for promotions? Stay tuned as the case develops.

[News] 091202 Junsu had shaken the Musical Mozart!


Immediately after the rumor has spread that Junsu from TVXQ may perform at the Musial Mozart
on the night of November 26th, the ticket sells site got on fire!
The presale ticket agency interpark recorded the Mozart’s top sells on November 27th!

Massive access was recorded, people fought to get the tickets,
and in the morning of November 27th, all 5,700 tickets
for January 26th and 28th performances were sold out!!!
It is a curve of the sales named as “the roller coaster”!

The share was recorded as 22.7% which was 500% higher than the second place in ranking.
(*If there were more tickets to sell, the record would have been higher!^^)
And as soon as Junsu’s performance days tickets were sold out,
Mozart’s sells had dropped to 2% which is the normal number for the musical ticket.

SMAP member Kimura Takuya says TVXQ is Charismatic


At the FNS Music Festival which aired via Fuji TV on December 2nd, SMAP members and TVXQ members had nothing but praise for each other. Especially SMAP's Kimura Takuya and TVXQ's Jaejoong.

One of Japan's top stars, Kimura Takuya of SMAP stated in regards to TVXQ, "They sing and dance well and they are also very kind hearted. Even though I'm a guy, they are so charismatic and cool." To which Jaejoong responded, "SMAP members can sing and act. It's amazing how they can handle all of these individual activities so flawlessly."

This was TVXQ's first time to perform at the FNS Music Festival and the atmosphere and interaction between all of the stars were great.

TVXQ performs together at FNS Music Festival

The boys of TVXQ / DBSK / Tohoshinki were together as 5 and participated at the prestigious FNS Music Festival on Fuji TV in Japan. Only the top recording artists are invited to the Music Festival and it's usually the most watched (top ratings) program annually.

The boys performed Rainy Blue along with Hideaki Tokunaga and also their hit single Stand By You. They also had a brief interview section where they stated that they were nervous because this was their first time on the show. They also interacted with SMAP stating that Kusangi is supposedly good friends with Jaejoong. Kusangi stated they became friends after TVXQ appeared on the SMAPxSMAP show. Jaejoong stated he hasn't been in contact with Kusangi for a while because Kusangi changed his cell phone number. Kusangi stated that he'll give him his new number after the show.

It's good seeing them together. Check out the performances below and remember to visit the ONETVXQ Forums.
