move aside boys; ayumi is back ! (well she's been back for awhile but....) I love this single; and she looks stunning doesn't she? Sorry boys, I think I'm going to put you guys aside for awhile why I fangirl hehe ~
will post a download link later ~
-
Now of course I was joking putting them aside how could i....
JaeChunSu + Yoohwan are... IN AUSTRALIA? Sydney, Australia, to be exact. My first thought would be that'd they're there to visit Changmin but I just found out Changmin is in Brisbane? So... WHY ARE THEY IN AUSTRALIA? someone, please tell me....
Let's just say I started off my new year dying and reviving again. Why? I'm sure if you've checked any kpop news site in the past hour or so and you happen to be a follower of this whole TVXQ lawsuit thing, you would understand.
So I can say that my lifeline (or so it seems) has been cut down my thirds or maybe even by halves.
I don't know; happy new year?
& I will update and edit this post later, when I don't feel like doing this:
:D

update: here it is; the update
Just finished watching um, what is it called, "Dating on Earth" ? yeps and I have many things I want to say about it, so I won't squeeze it here.
just seeing our leader being pedofied had me rolling over laughing.
Changmin will have a change of heart 3 times; Yunho 4 times
CM: Today is also going to hosted by me and Yunho.
YH: Weird, today too? It's been three weeks in a row.
CM: Mm, yes. Yunho-sama, do you not like hosting with me?
YH: No, it's not that, but just us two hosting three weeks in a row, is that good?
CM: Mm~ As expected you don't want to host with me.
YH: No.. I was saying......
CM: Mm?
YH: That's it's not like that.
CM: Then what is wrong with this?
YH: Ah, ah, ah..
CM: Yunho-sama, this should be because you hate me. You don't like me?
YH: Hn, why has the topic suddenly changed to this? (Why indeed;)
CM: Exactly what is it. Do you hate me?
YH: Changmin, you can stop now.
CM: Yunho-sama, please answer my question.
YH: Ah, what?
CM: You didn't answer my question at all.
YH: I understand. Okay, I'll answer. CM: Hai.
YH: I do not hate Changmin.
CM: I said, this isn't an answer. Please answer whether you like or hate me. (Having Changmin ask you that is creepy enough; having him force you to answer....?)
YH: What is this. Mm, okay, I like Changmin. I. Like. Chang. Min. Like, like, like okay?
CM: Ah, really? Thank you Yunho-sama, thank you very much.
YH: Ah, ah, ah~
CM: This makes me very happy. Okay, since Yunho likes me....
YH: Hahaha
CM: Actually whether it's hate or like I don't really care.... (then why would you ask?! creeper;)
YH: Ah, right, right, right.
(this episode has too many interesting bits)
CM: Radio name is "Loves Junsu Very Much"~ Question is: For dinner, what would you eat first? 1) Carrot 2)Bamboo (?) 3)Egg
YH: I would choose egg.
(skipped)
CM: I choose carrot.
YH: Why? You must have looked at the answer.
CM: No, I didn't. I picked before....
YH: Hai~
CM: ... and then I looked.
YH: Ah, is that right~
CM: Mm~
YH: So then your answer must be pretty good eh?
CM: No, no, no. It shouldn't seem like a very good answer~
YH: Hai.
CM: Answer: This represents what you look at first when you first meet a girl.
YH: Eh?
CM: Yes~ For me who chose carrot, will look at the girl's face.
YH: Oh~ Face.
(skipped)
CM: Those who chose option 2 will look at the legs.
(skipped)
YH: I won't look at legs.
CM: Hai~ The last one....
YH: Mm.
CM: Last is your option.
YH: Ah~ So nervous, hahahaha
CM: Number 3 is egg.
YH: Egg.
CM: Those who choose egg will look at the girl's chest (area?)
YH: Hahahaha
CM: Girl's chest..
YH: This question is a bit werid.
CM: No, chest...., I don't think it's all that bad(LOL XD; Yunho's not a pervert like you, Mr.Shim)
YH: Chest represents the heart~
CM: Probably would look...
YH: Nononono, chest should mean the inner self, so I ...
CM: Nononono, it does not mean that.(don't be so hard on leader-shiii) - YH: Radio name, "Changmin Love."
CM: Yeah, baby!
YH: Question: An angel appears in front of you. Says something to you and then disappears. What did the angel say?
CM: Something like "Changmin will live a long life" (refer to AA3, Soulfighter talk)
YH: Ah ~
CM: Should be something like that. "Changmin will live long."
YH: Okay. Answer is: "This represents what you want others to say to you."
CM: Hai, Just like that.
(skipped)
CM: That really is my wish.
YH: Okay, I understand.
CM: I want to live long.
YH: Changmin is especially scary today. - Radio name, "Yujejunsuko." Question: You are making a sandwich for you girl friend. You put lettuce, ham, and eggs. How many slices of ham will you put?
Yunho; four slices Changmin; two-three slices
YH: Can I change my answer?
CM: No,no, no, it's too late.
Answer: The number of slices represents the number of time you will have a change of heart.
CM: Probably that's already happened before, has it?
YH: I haven't ~
CM: So you're saying you're going to have a change of heart 4 times right?
(let's just say, without Junsu, Changmin's verbal bullying target has been shifted to Yunho LOL also, after Changmin comes home from drinking a bit too much, he jumps rope 300 times because he feels like he can't live life like that.... XD)
And that's it for episode 142 -- thank you to H-san@pixnet for the transcriptttt !
Also, some eyecandy (more for me than any of you guys, really XD)
your "special video" watching days are over; you are now to be prim and proper, okay? :D
&
-
Also, as a Christmas present to myself, I just bought their "Secret Code" album :D (and perhaps I'll decide to treat myself to their Tokyo Dome DVD too.... but there's also their "Best Album" coming out.... tough choices !)
Since it's almost the end of the year, why not have a re-run through all the different singles that they've released since their debut? (note: this is going to just be their Japanese singles)
For a lot of their earlier releases, I haven't seen them at all; so I guess this is a good time to start watching LOL
04/26/05: Stay with me Tonight
Just realized I never actually listened to this song fully (nor watched the PV). I know how the "Stay with me Tonight" part goes, but that's about it. Also, isn't this their debut song? Why is it that they always sing "Somebody to Love" at their concerts? LOL shouldn't they be singing their debut song? It's no wonder I never hear this song...
Moving on to their hairstyles, I didn't like it. Actually no, I don't like it. Especially Jaejoong's hair ! *bricked* They all just had too much hair.
And Changmin's eyebrows have never stopped twitching XD
07/13/05: Somebody to Love
A must sing at their concerts (it feels like a good exercise song too? :D)
Another thing I noticed was that they really love pointing the camera at Changmin back then~ Almost this whole song was sung by him ! I know Changmin might have been the only one to look "normal" XD but that's no way to treat the other members, especially Junsu LOL
Let's just say even at Junsu's solo parts, he had to share camera time with the other members....
Once again, I still don't like their hairstyles!
11/01/05: My Destiny
Once again the camera is not fair to Junsu. evidence: 1:40 Junsu's solo parts > camera goes to the group dancing, then to Changmin... walking and then slowly taking off his headphones XD Also the fact that Junsu is the only one who doesn't seem to have a plotline to his character? Even though he and Changmin both end up in the chapel, it seems like Junsu's more out of place it's okay Junsu, we still love you :D
Yoochun, your character kind of creeps me out, but I like it nonetheless.
Anotger thing thing about this PV (or the song, actually) is the last bit! #*@(# what the heck?! They're barely legal XD (17-19 hardly qualifies...)
At the end, Changmin throws away his ipod? I bet you anything that was put in there because they wanted more of the 17 going on 30 Changmin XD ← aging that fast already...
01/18/06: 明日は来るから
continued...
First time watching this PV ← first time listening to the whole song too.
I have no complaints about this PV :D Even their hair looks better ! :D And there's not so much of a Changmin bias anymore LOL
The setting is nice too, although standing on that roof would be kind of .. cold; don't you think?
Next song !
04/19/06: Rising Sun
I don't like any of their outfits (besides Jaejoong's: look at 1:49) and I've never liked the "rap" parts... what's 'never lies to be a true, sun comes up blowing the fog'? *puzzled*
To be truthful, I love watching 'Rising Sun' performed live ← it's a very nice performace (especially the one where they performed it in their Mirotic showcase !) but then, anything looked good during their Mirotic era....
And Junsu, knocking the poor guy's hot dog was rude, you should apologize XD who do you think you are! (JS: I'm Xiah Junsu, of course)
06/21/09: Begin
Another song widely liked; I guess ballads are the way to go?
But was it really necessary to have such close close-ups? Their heads looked humongous! XD
Yunho... ← 2:19
Enough said.
2:46 ← I know we often complain they don't have enough interaction with females... but that wasn't really needed LOL
and 3:56 ... let's just say I liked the tree & the piano.
↑ starting to get lazy (A)
08/16/06: Sky
I remember all the complaints about shooting this PV in HIJ2 ← I would complain too, the heat looks intense.
Also, besides Changmin, would someone tell me how they managed to keep their skin so... NICE AND PALE? Even under that scorching heat?! I'm directing this question at you, Kim Jaejoong.
As you can probably tell, I hate heat. LOL.
This PV is very pretty, all thanks to the nice weather; so I guess to have results, you must suffer for it? ;] I don't have much like for this song ← I don't think I even have it downloaded?
So let's move on ... (sorry to those who like this song :D )
11/08/06: Miss You
Confession: I didn't even know this song existed.
0:54 ← Junsu, please focus on the road; you're a driving hazard !
1:34 ← I THOUGHT IT WAS HEECHUL XD
And also, charisma Junsu has been born :D No more of the pudgy looking Junsu ;]
By the way, did they all fall for the same girl? And is she forwarding the same message to all five of them? Help me, I'm confused...
I love blonde-haired Jaejoong
11/08/06: "O" -正．反．合
I LIKE :D But I still don't understand what's "noise bit"
I prefer the Korean version (song-wise) but PV-wise, I would say they're both tied ;]
This will be short because there really isn't anything to talk about XD it's just a dance-based PV ^^
-
I shall stop here for now; I'll continue later ← how many singles are there? 29? and I'm at their... 9th single? @__@ wish me luck !
I say Junsu has captured the escense of the whole Mozart thing; this picture has quite a feel to it ;]
Although I'm sure the rest of the cast have similar outfits, I can't help but think that Junsu doesn't look like Junsu XD
↓ of course, pictures like that don't like me from not laughing
I realize why I had the urge to laugh; it's the makeup and the eyebrows ! Would you look at the eyebrows... they're so.. bushy XD and is that purple eyeshadow you've got there, Junsu?
I bet the wig's heavy :D
+) Moving on, Changmin's Paradise Ranch !
I miss seeing them smile ~ glad to see one :D
casual wearrr
RUN !
Finally, everything's starting to be put into action. Also, Postman to Heaven has been .. "released" and subbed on youtube to those who want to watch it (I will not watch it unless the DVD comes out; I won't watch it unless its in good qualittyyyy :D) And ... I think Tohoshinki will have promotional activities for Break Out! in 2010? That's just my guess, but waitt...do they usually promote singles? Or is it just albums? (confused). Hopefully we'll be seeing them doing their group activities soon !
Notes:
12/30(水)18:30～22:30『第51回輝く! 日本レコード大賞』
※今年もみなさまの応援のおかげで『Stand by U』で優秀作品賞に選ばれました。
12/31(木)19:15～23:45 NHK総合『第60回NHK紅白歌合戦』
12/25(金)19:00～23:10 テレビ朝日系『MUSIC STATION SPECIAL SUPER LIVE 2009』
- no surprises, they will be performing "Stand By U" (I want Bolero!) on both performances
--
Just a little side topic: HANKYUNG ! Although I can see why he might want to terminate the contract, but the timing couldn't have been better. Unlike Cassies though, I don't think ELFS are going to be .. as distressed ? (my opinions only) because despite 13Forever, I know a lot of friends who are only into one or two members and not the rest. But what do I know? I just hope this can be settled without having it brought out to court because, like JaeChunSu, things aren't going to look too pretty.
I can say this, however, after TVXQ, I would say Super Junior are the ones who bring in the income for SME. Now that both groups are in this situation, perhaps things will look up for both cases? But like I said, I don't think Hankyung leaving is as significant as Jaejoong, Junsu, and Yoochun, leaving. Not saying that Hankyung isn't important (we all know he is; he is the main reason SJ-M is doing so well in China ^^) but 1 person compared to 3 people ← something like that ~
↑
a reminder: this is just my opinions only, if any disagreements should come from this, I don't want to hear any spazzing directed to me :D civilized opinions are welcome, spazzing, not so much ^^
Apparently 'BREAK OUT!' is their 29th single, so I guess 'Colours~' isn't considered as one of their singles? (then what is it ?! Soulmate 1st Single?)
I saw the blurry version of the covers yesterday and I must say, isn't this single being released in January? ← what's with the red & green? XD
Yoochunnn... if Changmin wasn't getting better looking by the second, I might have considered replacing him with you ← then again, maybe not :D
All you needed was a good hairstyle! (to Yoochun's stylist: do you hear that! good hairstyle! I don't want to see anymore of that SBU ahjussi hairstyle !!!!!)
Changmin; I've never seen you wear hoodies like that but do wear them more often now :D
& Junsu, why are you.. sticking out?! LOL a lot of people say you've become more of a ... bystander XD (but then, at least you're not looking lost like Jaejoong is ^^)

Sorry it's a bit messy, hope it's understandable.
I think the 2CD+DVD is a must buy (how can you resist not having '時ヲ止メテ' in high quality?!)
- but because of this, I don't think 'BREAK OUT!' is going to be coupled with 時ヲ止メテ or 甘く果てしなく ... and Japanese fans have been saying that it's going to be Junsu's 'XIATIC' ← I bet Yunho's probably thinking: what about 'Checkmate' ?? XD
Nothing's been confirmed yet but we'll see :D
- UPDATE:
Hahahah Yoochun, first it's the soulmate haircut, now it's 2U ? :D
By the way, how does all five of them look... normal again? (and I'm referring to their weight) I still remember it was just ... days ago that I was saying Yunho has become a bit bloated and Changmin too skiny and Junsu getting a bit chubby too. But now they all look.. normal?! Junsu you're supposed to age after your birthday, not look younger..
While I'm on this:
It seems to be that Junsu told someone that his favourite animal was a horse (not Xiahky?) and so that should explain why he has a horse next to him. Doesn't Junsu look like he just rolled out of bed? :D
Hm, what else.
Mr.AVEX (Max Matsuuraaaa ← I'll just refer to him as Mr.AVEX from now on) has said on this blog to reassure the fans that just because they're releasing a "Best Album" now, it doesn't mean that they will disband. This album had been in planning since the beginning of the year so despite the different opinions, they cannot give up. He also says he doesn't know how this will end, nor can he promise anyone anything, but he will try and do his best.
I know AVEX has always been really supportive of the boys, but somehow I keep on thinking this album is released so they can bring in the money before everything ends *bricked* ← total pessimist today XD I wouldn't blame them for doing so anyway; it's reality, it's the entertainment business! What can they do (nothing) ^^ Of course, I'm more than grateful they're releasing it LOL I can't wait to have 時を止めて!
what a long post; I should end this soon:
Before I do so, Changmin's drama schedule has been updated again ! (or so I think it is; I'm not really that reliable but I don't think I'm that off ← I hope) So Yunho and Changmin have returned to Korea again and it has been said that Changmin will be in Seoul from the 17th to 19th, in Jeju Island on the 20th, and will officially start filming on the 21st.
Changmin, the weather is getting colder by the day, stay healthy !
Sorry Junsu, but it looks as if I'll have to move your birthday post to January 1st ^^
Meanwhile, some quick news:
Tohoshinki's new single BREAK OUT! PV will be shot tomorrow? Something like that. It'll be a dance song (hopefully not the Survivor type moves, I had a good laugh at those; the performances were fine, the PV... not so much? XD) Anyhow, this is taken from their dancer, SONNY's, blog which is right here: http://citylightstokyo.com/blog/primetime/author/sonny
and of course..
HAPPY BIRTHDAY KIM XIAH JUNSU !
Q version of Kim Junsu and Xiahky ! 太可愛吧，是我的話，一定不捨得用
Note that it says "XIAHDAY" , and not "HAPPY BIRTHDAY" (this cake looks too cute to eat... I wonder what happened to it after?)
Let's see... it's soccer Junsu, 女傑 Junsu... Mirotic Junsu? and what else.. that red hair.. 06 Junsu?
I REMEMBER WATCHING THIS! it's MBC 幻想的同桌 (I have no idea what it is in English LOL)
TRI-ANGLE JUNSU ! LOL ... and Wrong Number Junsu with a gun (charisma Junsu) Oh, there's also... when was that hairstyle... ah~ "The Way you Are" ... right? :D
and a video:
Just wait till January, Junsu-
I'll have a post for you !
-
Side notes:
Although it's still only Changmin and Yunho, I think that they're feeling a lot .. cheerful this time? Once again Yunho succumbs to Changmin's smart mouth (I guess without Junsu, Yunho shall have to be the replacement ^^) I'll post up some translations on the highlights of that.. perhaps this weekend?
Also, anyone watch the "Smile Again" fanmeeting?? T_T I wish I was there; sigh.
-
extra:
She's getting younger and younger ! Why ! Namie ~ Where is Ayumi? I miss her too ]:
how can you not love shim changmin :D
- now I understand why non-fans think that Bigeast are rude for saying "ehh~" to the boys (it's not their fault they have snarky changmin)
move aside boys; ayumi is back ! (well she's been back for awhile but....) I love this single; and she looks stunning doesn't she? Sorry boys, I think I'm going to put you guys aside for awhile why I fangirl hehe ~
will post a download link later ~

Now of course I was joking putting them aside how could i....
JaeChunSu + Yoohwan are... IN AUSTRALIA? Sydney, Australia, to be exact. My first thought would be that'd they're there to visit Changmin but I just found out Changmin is in Brisbane? So... WHY ARE THEY IN AUSTRALIA? someone, please tell me....
Let's just say I started off my new year dying and reviving again. Why? I'm sure if you've checked any kpop news site in the past hour or so and you happen to be a follower of this whole TVXQ lawsuit thing, you would understand.

Moving on to their hairstyles, I didn't like it. Actually no, I don't like it. Especially Jaejoong's hair ! *bricked* They all just had too much hair.
And Changmin's eyebrows have never stopped twitching XD
07/13/05: Somebody to Love
A must sing at their concerts (it feels like a good exercise song too? :D)
Another thing I noticed was that they really love pointing the camera at Changmin back then~ Almost this whole song was sung by him ! I know Changmin might have been the only one to look "normal" XD but that's no way to treat the other members, especially Junsu LOL
Let's just say even at Junsu's solo parts, he had to share camera time with the other members....
Once again, I still don't like their hairstyles!
11/01/05: My Destiny
Once again the camera is not fair to Junsu. evidence: 1:40 Junsu's solo parts > camera goes to the group dancing, then to Changmin... walking and then slowly taking off his headphones XD Also the fact that Junsu is the only one who doesn't seem to have a plotline to his character? Even though he and Changmin both end up in the chapel, it seems like Junsu's more out of place it's okay Junsu, we still love you :D
Yoochun, your character kind of creeps me out, but I like it nonetheless.
Anotger thing thing about this PV (or the song, actually) is the last bit! #*@(# what the heck?! They're barely legal XD (17-19 hardly qualifies...)
At the end, Changmin throws away his ipod? I bet you anything that was put in there because they wanted more of the 17 going on 30 Changmin XD ← aging that fast already...
01/18/06: 明日は来るから
continued...
First time watching this PV ← first time listening to the whole song too.
I have no complaints about this PV :D Even their hair looks better ! :D And there's not so much of a Changmin bias anymore LOL
The setting is nice too, although standing on that roof would be kind of .. cold; don't you think?
Next song !
04/19/06: Rising Sun
I don't like any of their outfits (besides Jaejoong's: look at 1:49) and I've never liked the "rap" parts... what's 'never lies to be a true, sun comes up blowing the fog'? *puzzled*
To be truthful, I love watching 'Rising Sun' performed live ← it's a very nice performace (especially the one where they performed it in their Mirotic showcase !) but then, anything looked good during their Mirotic era....
And Junsu, knocking the poor guy's hot dog was rude, you should apologize XD who do you think you are! (JS: I'm Xiah Junsu, of course)
06/21/09: Begin
Another song widely liked; I guess ballads are the way to go?
But was it really necessary to have such close close-ups? Their heads looked humongous! XD
Yunho... ← 2:19
Enough said.
2:46 ← I know we often complain they don't have enough interaction with females... but that wasn't really needed LOL
and 3:56 ... let's just say I liked the tree & the piano.
↑ starting to get lazy (A)
08/16/06: Sky
I remember all the complaints about shooting this PV in HIJ2 ← I would complain too, the heat looks intense.
Also, besides Changmin, would someone tell me how they managed to keep their skin so... NICE AND PALE? Even under that scorching heat?! I'm directing this question at you, Kim Jaejoong.
As you can probably tell, I hate heat. LOL.
This PV is very pretty, all thanks to the nice weather; so I guess to have results, you must suffer for it? ;] I don't have much like for this song ← I don't think I even have it downloaded?
So let's move on ... (sorry to those who like this song :D )
11/08/06: Miss You
Confession: I didn't even know this song existed.
0:54 ← Junsu, please focus on the road; you're a driving hazard !
1:34 ← I THOUGHT IT WAS HEECHUL XD
And also, charisma Junsu has been born :D No more of the pudgy looking Junsu ;]
By the way, did they all fall for the same girl? And is she forwarding the same message to all five of them? Help me, I'm confused...
I love blonde-haired Jaejoong
11/08/06: "O" -正．反．合
I LIKE :D But I still don't understand what's "noise bit"
I prefer the Korean version (song-wise) but PV-wise, I would say they're both tied ;]
This will be short because there really isn't anything to talk about XD it's just a dance-based PV ^^
-
I shall stop here for now; I'll continue later ← how many singles are there? 29? and I'm at their... 9th single? @__@ wish me luck !
I say Junsu has captured the escense of the whole Mozart thing; this picture has quite a feel to it ;]
Although I'm sure the rest of the cast have similar outfits, I can't help but think that Junsu doesn't look like Junsu XD
↓ of course, pictures like that don't like me from not laughing
I realize why I had the urge to laugh; it's the makeup and the eyebrows ! Would you look at the eyebrows... they're so.. bushy XD and is that purple eyeshadow you've got there, Junsu?
I bet the wig's heavy :D
+) Moving on, Changmin's Paradise Ranch !
I miss seeing them smile ~ glad to see one :D
casual wearrr
RUN !
Finally, everything's starting to be put into action. Also, Postman to Heaven has been .. "released" and subbed on youtube to those who want to watch it (I will not watch it unless the DVD comes out; I won't watch it unless its in good qualittyyyy :D) And ... I think Tohoshinki will have promotional activities for Break Out! in 2010? That's just my guess, but waitt...do they usually promote singles? Or is it just albums? (confused). Hopefully we'll be seeing them doing their group activities soon !

Just a little side topic: HANKYUNG ! Although I can see why he might want to terminate the contract, but the timing couldn't have been better. Unlike Cassies though, I don't think ELFS are going to be .. as distressed ? (my opinions only) because despite 13Forever, I know a lot of friends who are only into one or two members and not the rest. But what do I know? I just hope this can be settled without having it brought out to court because, like JaeChunSu, things aren't going to look too pretty.
I can say this, however, after TVXQ, I would say Super Junior are the ones who bring in the income for SME. Now that both groups are in this situation, perhaps things will look up for both cases? But like I said, I don't think Hankyung leaving is as significant as Jaejoong, Junsu, and Yoochun, leaving. Not saying that Hankyung isn't important (we all know he is; he is the main reason SJ-M is doing so well in China ^^) but 1 person compared to 3 people ← something like that ~
↑
a reminder: this is just my opinions only, if any disagreements should come from this, I don't want to hear any spazzing directed to me :D civilized opinions are welcome, spazzing, not so much ^^
Apparently 'BREAK OUT!' is their 29th single, so I guess 'Colours~' isn't considered as one of their singles? (then what is it ?! Soulmate 1st Single?)
I saw the blurry version of the covers yesterday and I must say, isn't this single being released in January? ← what's with the red & green? XD
Yoochunnn... if Changmin wasn't getting better looking by the second, I might have considered replacing him with you ← then again, maybe not :D
All you needed was a good hairstyle! (to Yoochun's stylist: do you hear that! good hairstyle! I don't want to see anymore of that SBU ahjussi hairstyle !!!!!)
Changmin; I've never seen you wear hoodies like that but do wear them more often now :D
& Junsu, why are you.. sticking out?! LOL a lot of people say you've become more of a ... bystander XD (but then, at least you're not looking lost like Jaejoong is ^^)

Sorry it's a bit messy, hope it's understandable.
I think the 2CD+DVD is a must buy (how can you resist not having '時ヲ止メテ' in high quality?!)
- but because of this, I don't think 'BREAK OUT!' is going to be coupled with 時ヲ止メテ or 甘く果てしなく ... and Japanese fans have been saying that it's going to be Junsu's 'XIATIC' ← I bet Yunho's probably thinking: what about 'Checkmate' ?? XD
Nothing's been confirmed yet but we'll see :D
- UPDATE:
Hahahah Yoochun, first it's the soulmate haircut, now it's 2U ? :D
By the way, how does all five of them look... normal again? (and I'm referring to their weight) I still remember it was just ... days ago that I was saying Yunho has become a bit bloated and Changmin too skiny and Junsu getting a bit chubby too. But now they all look.. normal?! Junsu you're supposed to age after your birthday, not look younger..
While I'm on this:
It seems to be that Junsu told someone that his favourite animal was a horse (not Xiahky?) and so that should explain why he has a horse next to him. Doesn't Junsu look like he just rolled out of bed? :D
Hm, what else.
Mr.AVEX (Max Matsuuraaaa ← I'll just refer to him as Mr.AVEX from now on) has said on this blog to reassure the fans that just because they're releasing a "Best Album" now, it doesn't mean that they will disband. This album had been in planning since the beginning of the year so despite the different opinions, they cannot give up. He also says he doesn't know how this will end, nor can he promise anyone anything, but he will try and do his best.
I know AVEX has always been really supportive of the boys, but somehow I keep on thinking this album is released so they can bring in the money before everything ends *bricked* ← total pessimist today XD I wouldn't blame them for doing so anyway; it's reality, it's the entertainment business! What can they do (nothing) ^^ Of course, I'm more than grateful they're releasing it LOL I can't wait to have 時を止めて!
what a long post; I should end this soon:
Before I do so, Changmin's drama schedule has been updated again ! (or so I think it is; I'm not really that reliable but I don't think I'm that off ← I hope) So Yunho and Changmin have returned to Korea again and it has been said that Changmin will be in Seoul from the 17th to 19th, in Jeju Island on the 20th, and will officially start filming on the 21st.
Changmin, the weather is getting colder by the day, stay healthy !
Sorry Junsu, but it looks as if I'll have to move your birthday post to January 1st ^^
Meanwhile, some quick news:
Tohoshinki's new single BREAK OUT! PV will be shot tomorrow? Something like that. It'll be a dance song (hopefully not the Survivor type moves, I had a good laugh at those; the performances were fine, the PV... not so much? XD) Anyhow, this is taken from their dancer, SONNY's, blog which is right here: http://citylightstokyo.com/blog/primetime/author/sonny
and of course..
HAPPY BIRTHDAY KIM XIAH JUNSU !
Q version of Kim Junsu and Xiahky ! 太可愛吧，是我的話，一定不捨得用
Note that it says "XIAHDAY" , and not "HAPPY BIRTHDAY" (this cake looks too cute to eat... I wonder what happened to it after?)
Let's see... it's soccer Junsu, 女傑 Junsu... Mirotic Junsu? and what else.. that red hair.. 06 Junsu?
I REMEMBER WATCHING THIS! it's MBC 幻想的同桌 (I have no idea what it is in English LOL)
TRI-ANGLE JUNSU ! LOL ... and Wrong Number Junsu with a gun (charisma Junsu) Oh, there's also... when was that hairstyle... ah~ "The Way you Are" ... right? :D
and a video:
Just wait till January, Junsu-
I'll have a post for you !
-
Side notes:
Although it's still only Changmin and Yunho, I think that they're feeling a lot .. cheerful this time? Once again Yunho succumbs to Changmin's smart mouth (I guess without Junsu, Yunho shall have to be the replacement ^^) I'll post up some translations on the highlights of that.. perhaps this weekend?
Also, anyone watch the "Smile Again" fanmeeting?? T_T I wish I was there; sigh.
-
extra:
She's getting younger and younger ! Why ! Namie ~ Where is Ayumi? I miss her too ]:
how can you not love shim changmin :D
- now I understand why non-fans think that Bigeast are rude for saying "ehh~" to the boys (it's not their fault they have snarky changmin)
