I'm sure everyone already heard about the cancellation of Tohoshinki's Bigeast Fanmeeting so I'll just post a little something about it later on.

So 맞짱닷컴 http://www.martzzang.com/ had decided to come up with this .. "battle" to compare whether TVXQ holds more power or Big Bang. Therefore, they compared their album sales using TVXQ's Third Asia Tour in Seoul CD and Big Bang's Big Show Concert CD. They compared the sales that occured on their site from 12/9 - 12/11 to come up with the winner.

Seeing as I'm more on TVXQ's side, obviously I would want our boys to win, but the results were... different from what I expected with sales of 95% to 5%?? I have also seen several media sites with titles similar to "동방신기 KO BIG BANG"

Ah, oh right, there were "points" rewarded for customers who contributed to those sales. (I'm not too sure of the full details)
Now of course we have to have the release dates taken to account here:

Big Bang's Big Show Concert CD was release somewhere in April while TVXQ's Third Asia Concert in Seoul CD was released in.. July?

"그동안 많은 대결이 있었지만 이번처럼 폭발적인 반응은 처음이다. 동방신기와 빅뱅 두 그룹의 엄청난 위력을 직접 확인할 수 있는 의미 있는 대결이었다"
"We've been hosting many of these mini battles before, but results like this are the first and we can fully comprehend the power of TVXQ and Big Bang and their overwhelming popularity."


I don't know whether I should be happy for the victory or angry that this "battle" just ruined the Cassies' plan to boycott SME products LOL. What can I say, you can't have everything you want.


sources: http://newsen.co.kr/news_view.php?uid=200912111350011002




(that's just the Korean version of the same message)

If I were to say that I am completely shocked and surprised, I would be lying. I can't say that there was this 0.1% of me that knew that the fanmeeting was going to be cancelled. Ever since seeing them together on stage again, I had a feeling that if they were to carry on their fanmeetings, it would be .. quite awkward; not just for them, but for all of us fans as well, wouldn' it? As a fan, I would much rather see them settle this issue and then come back on stage with truly genuine smiles and much more relaxed emotions.

Because I believe that's the least they can do for us, right? Rest, feel better, get everything settled, and then come back;



Funny how it's always mostly Cassiopeia that gets linked to TVXQ; but let's not forget....



Bigeast isn't too shabby either; they filled up 55,000 + 55,000 seats for Tokyo dome ;)


Now not to mention us overseas fans as well ! I really want to know the official number of TVXQ fans, I really, really, do.

I hope the boys know how big of a force they have with them, LOL. I would never doubt that TVXQ fans alone could populate a small island and sustain itself XD
 
Just remember we still have NHK Music Japan, Japan Music Station, and NHK Kouhaku to wait for ~
 
(I think I'm going to share some of my gif collections soon, I have a whole bunch sitting on my harddrive, waiting to be shown LOL)

^^ Finally, more activities for them in Japan ~ (hopefully we'll see them together in Korea as well? I do miss them speaking Korean T_T).
 
Okay, so the program will broadcast on December 25th from 7:00pm - 10:30pm. I'm not sure if Big Bang is going to go, maybe? But SEUNGRI, mess up on the first line of another song again and I'll strangle you. (glare)

"Telecinema7", which stars TVXQ's Hero Jaejoong, 2 Big Bang members TOP and Seungri, as well as Korea's top stars like Kim Ha Neul, Ahn Jae Wook, Cha In Pyo and Han Hyo Joo, will meet everyone in the form of a manga.


Kenaz (http://www.kenaz.biz) expressed that from the very beginning, "Telecinema7" garnered a lot of interest because it had a famous Japanese scriptwriter, one of the best Korean directors and the participation of famous Hallyu stars. As such, the manga will be published through SKT Manga site (http://www.toondosi.com/).


"Telecinema7" began airing in Korea since November and they aim to publish the manga early next year, at the same time that it airs on Japanese TV.

Kenaz's representative said that they "plan to turn 'Telecinema7' into a manga and anime, and the artist will earn substantial income from the royalties alone, what more with the goods that comes along with it".


SKT Manga site Toondosi, the exclusive distributor for the manga, will hold an exclusive, free broadcast of "Telecinema7" on 30 December. Invitations to the exclusive event are currently in progress.

From cathy@pixnet : "這個活動是剛剛開始的, 日本凌晨一點鐘, 各個有部落格的東神飯, 包含Bigeast跟一般的飯, 同步PO上部落格, 同時對SM公司及東神五名成員請求"

This activity had just started, at around 1am in Japan. To all those who have blogs and would like to join in on this, please include the original Japanese version and post the title as"「東方神起は私たちが守る」". Also, use your real name for the "XXX".

(Well, you don't have to, but it's preferred, but if like me, I don't really feel like exposing my real name so I'm just going to keep it as XXX for now. I do know that I can give your posts to the person who posted this so she can upload it to Bigeast (she's part of it). But since I don't have very much information on this right now, just post this on your blog and use it as your first post. ^^)

Doesn't matter if you're part of Bigeast or Cassiopeia or just a regular fan, anyone can participate in this, just remember to post it on your blog ~

I'll be updating this to see if there's anything that we are supposed to do. Once again, just change the XXX to your own name. Spread this around ! (once again, the English translations were done by me so please do not alter them unless you find some terribly wrongly done translation LOL - I did the best I could, Japanese and Chinese don't really directly translate into anything that makes sense in English... )

So like I mentioned (or Changmin mentioned), they were going to announce an important news update on the next broadcast of Bigeastation, which is this episode. I haven't heard it because I'm kind of too upset to at the moment. But I will say this, Bigeastation will continue to broadcast until the end of December (which is very, very soon).

I can't say I didn't expect this to happen, seeing as they can't really continue on with 3 members + 2 members right?

Through this radio, all five of them have improved their Japanese, have been given a chance to talk freely and be themselves, to joke around with each other, to bully(?) each other, to get a chance to become closer to their fans, and many other things.

As much as no one wants this to happen, perhaps some things are inevitable. But to be honest, I do believe in the five's friendship and love towards each other and if you are one of those fans who believe their relationship can be so easily broken.... do you really, truly, love all five of them as you think you do? Maybe you only love one member, you can't force yourself to love all five; but if you love one of them, accept that that one member loves all his other members as well... and so by loving one, you love all five.

Well, to end on a good note, we now have NHK Music Japan on the 20th to look forward too as well has NHK Kouhaku on the 31st ~ (and their planned fanmeetings, of course ^^)

人影も見えない 午前0時
電話BOXの 外は雨
かけなれたダイアル回しかけて
ふと指を止める


冷たい雨に打たれながら
哀しい物語を想い出した
あなたの帰り道 交差点
ふと足を止める

レイニーブルー もう終わったはずなのに
レイニーブルー 何故追いかけるの
あなたの幻 消すように
私も今日は そっと雨

行き過ぎる車のヘッドライトが
ひとりぼっちの影をつくる
あなたの白い車　捜しかけて
ふと瞳をふせる

レイニーブルー もう終わったはずなのに
レイニーブルー いつまで追いかけるの
あなたの幻 消すように
私も今日は そっと雨

レイニーブルー もう終わったはずなのに
レイニーブルー 何故追いかけるの
あなたの幻 消すように
私も今日は そっと雨

あの頃のやさしさに
つつまれてた想い出が
流れてくこの街に
It's a rainy blue
It's a rainy blue　ゆれる心ぬらす淚
It's a rainy blue loneliness


I just realized this song has been resung in Korean and Chinese (English too?) The Chinese version is by 張學友, title 藍雨 (I've heard the song in Chinese, just never thought it was the same song ~)

Some screencaps from FNS Awards:


.... more

And now obviously these aren't in order (LOL)



Doesn't Junsu seem minimized by Changmin? ← height-wise LOL

A note from NHK Music Japan's 石原さん:



Q: What was Tohoshinki on December 4th?

A: They were at NHK.

Was everyone shocked?

Actually this year Tohoshinki is recording for MUSIC JAPAN.

I haven't announced this to everyone beforehand, please forgive me.

This a recording for NHK's MUSIC JAPAN X'mas Special.

Tohoshinki will be singing the full version of "Stand By U".

Also, they've recorded Christmas greetings for everyone.

For me, I really wanted Tohoshinki to record 30 songs.

It's rare to be able to speak to all five of them, and we'll try our best to tell them about the fan's comments.


How things will be, I hope everyone will tune in to the show to find out.

It will broadcast on December 20th, do look forward to it.



While everyone thought they'd all be returning to Korea, they stay and record for Music Japan ! No wonder no airport pictures have been popping out. I do hope that, for at perhaps during NHK Kouhaku, we can see more of Tohoshinki than usually? As a Christmas gift for us? ^^  And please make them sing "時を止めて” !  or "Bolero" (or both?) !

(as usual, I translated this [credits to hms@pixnet for Chinese trans] so take with credits? Don't remove the one from the Chinese source either!)

Ah, just as a random fact, 石原さん's blog has become more and more popular (and famous) ever since he started to furiosly blog about Tohoshinki. A blog friend told me that the comments have already passed the 500 mark (and that was weeks ago). Of course, not all of it is Japanese, in fact, it's been noted that there's a least 16 languages seen in the comments ! LOL Wondering which languages?

- English/Chinese/Korean/Japanese/Thai/Vietnamese/Indonesian/
Portugese/Italian/Tagalog/Spanish/Dutch/French/Romanian/Malaysian/Arabic

Suddenly I feel like TVXQ has this "uniting the world" affect. That is a lot of different languages and places... I didn't even know TVXQ was that widespread !

It's been such a long time since they've performed full songs so I thought I should post HD download links so that everyone can enjoy ~ So as usual. the performance was great, but I was actually looking forward to how the talks would be and so:

key points:

The host first asks Yunho how he thinks of the stage and he replies it's very beautiful, but because it's their first time attending, he's a bit nervous. Jaejoong also says he's very nervous. The host then says something about how she heard Jaejoong and one of the SMAP members were very close and about exchanging phone numbers ~ Then they go on to ask SMAP what they did Tohoshinki's charm is and they reply Tohoshinki's singing is great, dancing is great, and are also great people; even in men's eyes they are very amazing. The question then goes to what Tohoshinki thinks of SMAP and basically, Jaejoong and Yunho says the same thing. (I can't help but say that the question was a bit weird. Having boy(?)groups compliment each other can cause a bit of awkwardness, doesn't it? If the compliments contain too much.. 'love' then the situation becomes more and more weird ~ LOL)

The next part, where they were with 德永英明:

Not much was said, just introducing the songs, mainly "Rainy Blue"
key points:
 - the way the announcer said "Koda Kumi-san, [Lick Me]"
 - how Changmin huddled up to Yunho, again
I wish he'd stop huddling over to Yunho; Changmin, STOP IT.

I keep thinking that SME has something to do with this "Changmin-sticking-to-Yunho" situation... but I'm not going to go pointing fingers without actual facts and proofs. sigh.

by the way, I love love love love love love Changmin's new haircut ~ he's getting more and more handsome (that won't do, stop doing that; stop distracting me from focusing on anyone else ! ) Anyone notice that he took off his earrings? LOL (guess not ...) Oh, right, and Yunho, your Japanese, please start revising ^^ even though my Japanese is probably worse than yours, I can still tell you have been slacking on your studies ! ~

And this week's photo with Yunho and Changmin:



I guess their going for the Yin & Yang style? If only Changmin wasn't wearing a toque, then we'd be able to guess when this was recorded ! (gr)


By the way, anyone else notice that Junsu loves those glasses? He's been wearing them a lot recently:

レイニーブルー 何故追いかけるの
あなたの幻 消すように
私も今日は そっと雨

行き過ぎる車のヘッドライトが
ひとりぼっちの影をつくる
あなたの白い車　捜しかけて
ふと瞳をふせる

レイニーブルー もう終わったはずなのに
レイニーブルー いつまで追いかけるの
あなたの幻 消すように
私も今日は そっと雨

レイニーブルー もう終わったはずなのに
レイニーブルー 何故追いかけるの
あなたの幻 消すように
私も今日は そっと雨

あの頃のやさしさに
つつまれてた想い出が
流れてくこの街に
It's a rainy blue
It's a rainy blue　ゆれる心ぬらす淚
It's a rainy blue loneliness


I just realized this song has been resung in Korean and Chinese (English too?) The Chinese version is by 張學友, title 藍雨 (I've heard the song in Chinese, just never thought it was the same song ~)

Some screencaps from FNS Awards:


.... more

And now obviously these aren't in order (LOL)



Doesn't Junsu seem minimized by Changmin? ← height-wise LOL

A note from NHK Music Japan's 石原さん:



Q: What was Tohoshinki on December 4th?

A: They were at NHK.

Was everyone shocked?

Actually this year Tohoshinki is recording for MUSIC JAPAN.

I haven't announced this to everyone beforehand, please forgive me.

This a recording for NHK's MUSIC JAPAN X'mas Special.

Tohoshinki will be singing the full version of "Stand By U".

Also, they've recorded Christmas greetings for everyone.

For me, I really wanted Tohoshinki to record 30 songs.

It's rare to be able to speak to all five of them, and we'll try our best to tell them about the fan's comments.


How things will be, I hope everyone will tune in to the show to find out.

It will broadcast on December 20th, do look forward to it.



While everyone thought they'd all be returning to Korea, they stay and record for Music Japan ! No wonder no airport pictures have been popping out. I do hope that, for at perhaps during NHK Kouhaku, we can see more of Tohoshinki than usually? As a Christmas gift for us? ^^  And please make them sing "時を止めて” !  or "Bolero" (or both?) !

(as usual, I translated this [credits to hms@pixnet for Chinese trans] so take with credits? Don't remove the one from the Chinese source either!)

Ah, just as a random fact, 石原さん's blog has become more and more popular (and famous) ever since he started to furiosly blog about Tohoshinki. A blog friend told me that the comments have already passed the 500 mark (and that was weeks ago). Of course, not all of it is Japanese, in fact, it's been noted that there's a least 16 languages seen in the comments ! LOL Wondering which languages?

- English/Chinese/Korean/Japanese/Thai/Vietnamese/Indonesian/
Portugese/Italian/Tagalog/Spanish/Dutch/French/Romanian/Malaysian/Arabic

Suddenly I feel like TVXQ has this "uniting the world" affect. That is a lot of different languages and places... I didn't even know TVXQ was that widespread !

It's been such a long time since they've performed full songs so I thought I should post HD download links so that everyone can enjoy ~ So as usual. the performance was great, but I was actually looking forward to how the talks would be and so:

key points:

The host first asks Yunho how he thinks of the stage and he replies it's very beautiful, but because it's their first time attending, he's a bit nervous. Jaejoong also says he's very nervous. The host then says something about how she heard Jaejoong and one of the SMAP members were very close and about exchanging phone numbers ~ Then they go on to ask SMAP what they did Tohoshinki's charm is and they reply Tohoshinki's singing is great, dancing is great, and are also great people; even in men's eyes they are very amazing. The question then goes to what Tohoshinki thinks of SMAP and basically, Jaejoong and Yunho says the same thing. (I can't help but say that the question was a bit weird. Having boy(?)groups compliment each other can cause a bit of awkwardness, doesn't it? If the compliments contain too much.. 'love' then the situation becomes more and more weird ~ LOL)

The next part, where they were with 德永英明:

Not much was said, just introducing the songs, mainly "Rainy Blue"
key points:
 - the way the announcer said "Koda Kumi-san, [Lick Me]"
 - how Changmin huddled up to Yunho, again
I wish he'd stop huddling over to Yunho; Changmin, STOP IT.

I keep thinking that SME has something to do with this "Changmin-sticking-to-Yunho" situation... but I'm not going to go pointing fingers without actual facts and proofs. sigh.

by the way, I love love love love love love Changmin's new haircut ~ he's getting more and more handsome (that won't do, stop doing that; stop distracting me from focusing on anyone else ! ) Anyone notice that he took off his earrings? LOL (guess not ...) Oh, right, and Yunho, your Japanese, please start revising ^^ even though my Japanese is probably worse than yours, I can still tell you have been slacking on your studies ! ~

Showing both their good uses (Jaejoong & Junsu)
"Working with Jaejoong is so tiring" (Yoochun)

And this week's photo with Yunho and Changmin:



I guess their going for the Yin & Yang style? If only Changmin wasn't wearing a toque, then we'd be able to guess when this was recorded ! (gr)


By the way, anyone else notice that Junsu loves those glasses? He's been wearing them a lot recently:

At the wedding reception ~



And for his Airport Junsu as well ^^



Since when did Junsu start wearing brands? That shirt happens to be Dior ;]


Will be posting my shortened Bigeastation translations in a bit ~
Meanwhile, here's the recording:  http://www.sendspace.com/file/6zjl0l
