The cute side:

versus

The Dark side

Tak ku sangka tak ku duga, aku akan buat post untuk SNSD, group yang tak pernah listed in my favourite. Sungguhpun tak dinafikan lagu diorang seperti Gee sungguh catchy, dan vocal sesetengah ahli sungguh best (suka dengar kalau some of them nyanyi OST); tapi sebab aku nampak diorang menarik peminat menggunakan kegedikan lebih dari keupayaan nyanyian….makanya diorang aku pandang sebelah mata je…hohoho.

Hari tu, selepas mengeluarkan single Oh (yang sekali lagi hanya gedik lebih je….ulang sebut ntah brapa kali part yang sama..then sebut sikit word lain….sama macam Gee…yang buat aku kata “macam ni ke nyanyi?’ <~~owh panjang sungguh komplain)…okay sambung, keluar pulak Teaser ‘Black Shosi (betul ke eja ni?) yang kononnya nanti akan ada MV sambungan dari Oh…ala-ala story mode MV yang bersambung-sambung rrr…

Bila dengar Run Devil Run…siyes best….catchy as usual, tapi kali ni MV (dance version) diorang nampak sungguh charismatic…takde dah gedik-gedik. Yup, siyes suka konsep SNSD baru ni…hehehe. Dan buat pertama kali aku rasa yang diorang ni betul menyanyi. Tapi agak kecewa juga bila MV Story version ni keluar…xde la story mana pun….scene menari dari MV pertama banyak guna…pastu xde jalan cerita pun…ingatkan macam MV-MV bercerita macam kat SINI.

Apapun, Budak-budak lelaki, jangan asyik layan MV SNSD je ye…jaga sikit pandangan mata…hehe

Cakap pasal SNSD…sometimes aku kesian ngan diorang. Sebenarnya artis macam diorang ni xde pun nak gedik. Dalam We Got Married, HwangBo ada nag, katanya dalam cuaca sejuk beku kat Korea sana…tapi sebab diorang kena buat performance…kena gak pakai skirt pendek ngan baju nipis….perasan kan bila dalam variety show okay je baju diorang (kira okay la compare dengan baju yang guna dalam MV & performance). Dah budaya muzik kat sana cemtu…kalau artis perempuan tak jaga penampilan, mula la kena ‘serang’….even Hwayobi dulu pakai baju ala ahjumma dalam We Got Married, abis kena bash….apatah lagi kalau ada yang tunjuk tanda-tanda akan ada tummy fat (betul ke ni istilah dia…lol…eyh is it belly fat..lol). Kalu group macam ni…pakat nyanyi je pakai baju tak seksi….sure tak dapat cari makan….but then again….kesian kan, perempuan mana la yang suka nak pakai seksi cemni… <~~ntah apa dah aku merepek ni….

Side note, malam ni ada ada 3 drama baru yang mantap…geng ottoke nak tengok Personal taste secara berjemaah ke? Aku surely hanya akan tengok lepas sub kuar…huhuhu

*mode dah tak larat nak menaip*

last but not least, MV TVXQ ~ Share the World ni dicalon Best MV for MTV Japan, due to quality sound & video movement yang ‘sharply’ match…

ada gak TVXQ menyelit…lol

soredewa minna-san, oyasuminasai…Ja Ne~

Well, i found this video about an hour ago at Baidu, and i know no one have upload it to youtube yet…hehe. Gah, when I  listen to this…how i miss his singing

When I collecting photos and YT videos of Yunho’s This Is It Concert, i read a lots about Junsu going to Beijing too. Poor fans that waiting for him for hours in the airport, but Junsu need to use the VIP exit (well, remember the accident where like almost thousands fans surround him in the Pudong airport last year). They said that Junsu send his parents to greet the fans…and most of the fans cried knowing Junsu already left. Urmm…they really are 5 people that out of our reach eyh….

Good thing, this event went good. Good luck for Zuno, i bet you have good voice just like your twins.

And now…i miss Xiah voice so much…maybe Takyo Dome Concert will replace my current CNBlue playlist…hahaha.

Suddenly this two days, back being TVXQ stalker again . I have good time watching and collecting Yunho’s pic and fancam. And now I have this…lol…it’s just great…miahaha

last update: 29 March 2010

Latest update, Yunho will appear as the only Asian singer for Michael Jackson’s 1 Year Anniversary Memorial Concert in England. Qouting Omonatheydidn’t:

It’s been reported on the 19th that Uknow Yunho will attend as the only Asian singer for Michael Jakcson’s 1 year anniversary memorial concert to be held at London, England’s Wembley Stadium on June 8.

Mark Bush, an official/staff for Michael Jakcson’s concert in England revealed that “while looking over world artists for this concert, the production staff who looked at Uknow Yunho’s promotion information/data and practice/rehearsals praised Uknow Yunho’s exceptional skills,” and recommended and invited him as a suitable artist for this concert.

Older brother and part of the famous Jackson 5, Jermaine Jackson will appear at Michael Jackson’s 1 year anniversary memorial concert at Wembley Stadium which can accommodate 80,000 people. It (London concert) is expected to air on T.V. around the world this June (Mark Bush mentioned June 25 as the airing date in Entertainment Weekly exclusive).

Janet Jackson, Justin Timberlake, Prince, and Santana have been confirmed. Pop stars such as Stevie Wonder, Beyonce, and Black Eyed Peas’ will i.am. will gather in one place to highlight Michael Jackson’s musical life.

In the meantime, before the London concert, Uknow Yunho will appear this coming 27 and 28th at Seoul Yongsan War Memorial for Michael Jackson’s Korean tribute concert.

All the best for our leader-shi….i guess this year all TVXQ member will focus on their solo activity for most ne. I put some Yunho past dance performance here for anyone who may interested:

- One of my favourite…just see the different level he is…. (and, Lee Seung Gi is in this too…lol…baru prasan dengan dia…haha)

- Compilation of Yunho old xman dance (thanks…I doesn’t need to put so much video in this post…lol):

- Aku dah agak video kat atas edit guna performance dia yang lepas…here it is, 2008 SBS Gayo Daejun Dance Battle dated 29 December 2008:

Konklusi: dia buat orang tenganga je tengok dia menari….hahaha. Sayang pulak my favorite 3 stages dancing dah takde kat youtube.

On other side note (yer, ambe tak sah kalau tak update cerita tambahan..lol), TVXQ’s ‘TOHOSHINKI VIDEO CLIP COLLECTION -THE ONE-’, that was released on the 17th, ranked first on the music DVD and overall DVD Oricon daily charts. Congratulations boys…you guys made it again.

Lagi satu update lucu, ada fans jumpa gambar TVXQ kat buku text Bahasa Inggeris yang digunakan di Lithuania terbitan Cambridge Unniversity [credit ~ tohosomnia]:

Another news, pelakon-pelakon Sunao ni Narenakute dah berkumpul untuk ambil gambar poster:

Jeajoong, aja-aja fighting. For other picture, see it HERE.

Note: All info, video and pictures credited as linked.

Sari berita utama:

• Jang Geun Suk kembali ke pawagam dengan ‘Kimi Wo Petto’ versi Korea
• Jejung bakal ber’twitter’ dalam ‘Sunaoni Narenakute’
• ‘A Tribute’ and U-Know LIVE’s Trailer
• Matsumoto Jun dengan special drama Wagaya no Rekishi
• Allkpop.com dikecam Tablo
  

Berita paling menggemparkan. Bagaikan tahu cik Go Hurul merindui lakonan Jang Guen Suk, Star News melaporkan bahawa Jang Geun Suk bakal menjadi teraju utama dalam filem ‘You’re my pet’ versi Korea; re-make dari drama jepun terkenal ‘Kimi Wo Petto’ lakonan Matsumoto Jun.

Terdahulu sebelum ini, Kim Hyun Joong dikatakan bakal menjadi teraju utama, tetapi ianya menjadi khabar angin sahaja hingga kini. Mungkin juga disebabkan respon negetif yang diterima dari para peminat temasuklah Go Hu Rul sendiri….hohoho…. bianhe Hyun Joong ah, sungguhpun dikau best dalam We Got Married, tapi ambe takkan setuju kalau mung nak belakon re-make Kimi wo petto ni…hohoho.

Satu yang menarik mengenai hal ini, bukankah dulu Jang Geun Suk menolak untuk berlakon dalam Boys Over Flower sebab dia tak dapat role Ji Hoo sunbea yang diberi kepada Kim Hyun Joong. Kini, Jang Geun Suk pula yang mengambil role yang asalnya ditawar kepada Kim Hyun Joong… well, the best wins…no heart feeling k….hehehe.

Bagaimanapun, masih belum ada pengumuman rasmi mengenai perkara ini dan hanya Star News sahaja yang melaporkan setakat ini…harapnya bukan rumor semata-mata…

hahaha....dulu ko sukahati je nak bedah rabbit dengan pig, nah rasakan sekarang ko pulak jadi pet....hohoho

Beralih ke berita seterusnya. Seperti yang diwar-warkan, Hero Jeajoong atau lebih dikenali sebagai Kim jejung di Jepun, bakal berlakon bersama Eita dan Ueno Juri dalam drama terbaru terbitan Fuji TV “Sunaoni Narenakute” (T/N: I can’t be honest with myself).

Memetik Omonothedidn’t LJ:

This is a youth group drama of five men and women that meat through an internet communication tool “twitter.” The five friends who get over the problems that each had become a true friends.

It will be co-starred by an actor, Eita (27), and an actress, Juri Ueno (23).

Jaejoong was selected to play a role of a doctor who came to Japan with his young sister and work at a medical equipment maker company, but he is troubled with the pressure without much business results.

Eita will play a role of a photographer; Ueno will play a role of a high school substitute teacher.

There are also Tetsuji Tamayama (29), Megumi Seki (24) who play the part of the friends who met through twitter.

Producer Toshiyuki Nakano said, “Jaejoong has the overwhelming presence that does not bend one’s eyes.

On the other hand, he has a personality of a jocular one. We made his role suitable to his personality.”

Nakano expects great overall results.

Jaejoong mentioned, “It is a different field from my normal activities, so I feel tense a bit, but at the same time, I am very happy and I wish to have a great time photographing with other co-stars. I will do my very best! Dozo Yorosiku Onegai simasu! (Please look forward to it!)”

Jaejoong of TVXQ, who has a beautiful figure and a great singing ability.
With his new “acting power”, his popularity in Japan seems to rise even more and more!

Wah….sungguh teruja . Eita & Euno Juri sememangnya fovorite aku. Aku ada instinct Eita yang akan jadi main leads. Tambahan aku sebenarnya agak risau dengan lakonan Jeajung, aku tak tengok lagi Heaven Postmen, jadi tak pasti macam mana tahap dia sekarang. This is a drama anyway. Harapnya watak dia ni berpadanan dengan karekter dia sebenar….hahahaha… (apahal berita jadi sesi luahan perasaan ni….hahaha).

Oh ya…harapnya lepas ni nanti, Jejung akan aktif bertwitter, senang la aku nak stalk dia…hahaha.

Beralih ke berita seterusnya.

Seperti yang sedia maklum, Go Hu Rul’s soebang, U-Know Yunho kini sedang menjalankan latihan intensif lebih 10 jam sehari di Las Vages untuk Konsert “A Tribute”. Apapun, sila layan trailer iklan konsert ini….hohoho, sungguh teruja:

Aja-aja FIGHTING….harapnya nanti ada la ni disiar kat TV ke, keluar DVD ke….sungguh teruja…kyaaa

****abis la berita dah hilang arah tuju****

Baiklah, kita sambung dengan berita sampingan.

Dilaporkan Matsumoto Jun bakal kembali ke kaca TV jepun dengan special annivesary drama “Wagaya no Rekishi”. Drama khas 3 episod yang ditayangkan tiga malam berturut bermula 9 April nanti mengisahkan cinta penuh halangan hingga dipisahkan oleh Taufan Vera, taufan terburuk dalam sejarah Jepun yang melanggar Jepun pada 26 September 1954.

MatsuJun ni pun sama juga, tetau je aku rindu dengan lakonan dia…huhuhu. Come back with a dorama please. Arashi dah cipta rekod Oricon dengan jual kedua-dua latest single [ 2009 single, "Ashita no Kioku/Crazy Moon ~Kimi wa Muteki~," & latest single "Troublemaker"] lebih 500 000 salinan pada minggu pertama jualan untuk kedua-dua single ni….dakara dorama onegai…

Berita terakhir untuk hari ini, Tablo baru-baru ini menghantar mesej beransur amarah terhadap allkpop.com melalui twitter. Walaupun aku tak berapa mengenali Tablo dan tak berapa ambil kisah isu hakcipta musik ni (LOL…hahaha), tapi aku suka sangat apabila allkpop.com mula di-condemn…. (yee…aku sungguh anti-allkpop.com). Di bawah merupakan sebahagian tweet dari Tablo, boleh baca selebihnya di SINI.

Sekian dulu GO News, Go Hu Rul melaporkan live dari Las Vegas hohoho.

Entri ini diinspirasi dari entri aenaz, yang kemudian diikuti oleh chokilala, dan kemudian diikuti oleh menteil. Macam best je buat entri begini. Jom tengok apa pula yang diajar U-know Yunho kepadaku tentang blog:

1. Work hard for what you want to achieve…kejayaan takkan datang bergolek…

Menyertai SM Entertainment ketika berusia 13 tahun, walaupun terpaksa berulang alik dari Gwangju ke Seoul setiap minggu, walaupun kadang-kadang terpaksa tidur di bawah jambatan dan berkerja separuh masa; dia masih teruskan latihan demi mengejar cita-cita. Berlatih menari dan menyanyi berjam-jam sehari. Setelah debut, aktiviti makin padat dengan program promosi, rakaman, temuramah, photo-shoot, persembahan dan konsert. Usaha berterusan teras kejayaan. Latihan berterusan dan penambahbaikan perlu demi menjamin kualiti persembahan. Setiap peluang ialah pelajaran.

Kini ketika dalam tempoh kritikal di mana aktiviti kumpulan dihadkan, mereka terpaksa mengeluarkan album kompilasi tanpa dapat melakukan promosi. Namun kerana hasil usaha yang terbaik bermula dari awal, album Tohoshinki Best Selection 2010 berjaya dijual sebanyak kira-kira 228 542 salinan pada hari pertama jualan pada 17 Februari lalu. Dan dalam masa 7 hari, 413 000 salinan berjaya dijual sekaligus memecahkan rekod 14 tahun carta Oricon.

Begitu juga dengan blogging, kita bermula dari sebuah blog yang kosong. Secara perlahan dan konsisten diisi. Dalam masa yang sama terus menimba ilmu untuk membaiki diri. Blog yang punya entri berkualiti terhasil setelah berjam-jam menulis dengan penuh teliti. Takkan mampu untuk kita hasilkan sebuah blog yang dalam masa seminggu sudah punya flat uniques visitor hingga beratus-ratus sehari. Untuk hasilkan sebuah blog yang punya identiti sendiri, ia perlukan masa dan perlukan usaha dalam membinanya.

Kalau setahun lepas, jika aku offline tiga hari meninggalkan blog tanpa update (apatah lagi membuat sesi menyibuk kat blog orang a.k.a blogwalking), merundum trafik dari sekitar flat 70 uniques per day ke bawah 30 visit sehari. Kerana itu aku cuba fokuskan untuk menghasilkan entri yang sentiasa relevan dan bermanfaat untuk peng-google maklumat. Dan alhamdulillah, sekarang bila masa lebih menuntut untuk fokus kepada kerja, blog yang tiga hari tidak ber-update masih mampu mengekal  flat 250 uniques visitors.

2. Some people may recognize you, but to others…you just another nobody.

Tahun 2005, Dong Bang Shin Ki sudah menjadi antara kumpulan paling popular di Korea. Namun apabila dihantar untuk debut di Jepun, mereka bermula semula dari bawah. Di Korea mereka membuat persembahan di atas pentas yang hebat, minggu yang sama mereka terpaksa membuat persembahan di tangga dan pentas kecil kosong di Jepun. Namun mereka tidak patah semangat, malah terus berusaha hingga diiktiraf di Jepun.

Begitu juga dengan blogging. Mungkin di kalangan sebahagian komuniti blogger, mereka mengenali aku dan sudah biasa denganku. Namun bagi komuniti yang lain, banyak lagi yang tidak mengetahui kewujudan hurulaini.net. Bermula dari rasa mengenali, wujudnya rasa menghormati.

3. Sabar dengan kritikan, tak perlu balas benda jahat yang orang buat pada kita

Sewaktu awal kemunculan Dong Bang Shin Ki, mereka sentiasa dikritik dan punya anti-fans yang ramai. Namun ini tidak merendahkan semangat mereka, malah mereka berusaha buktikan kemampuan mereka hingga di tahap yang ada sekarang.

14 Oktober 2006, insiden Yunho meminum air yang ditambah super glue yang diberikan oleh seorang anti-fan. Anti-fan tersebut menyerah diri keesokkan hari dan ditahan polis pada 16 Oktober 2006. Namun kemudian, Yunho sendiri mengugurkan tuduhan terhadap remaja tersebut.

Ketika berblog, sentiasa ada sahaja feedback yang buruk diterima. Tipu la kalau kata tu tak merendahkan semangat dan motivasi kita. Namun, jangan terus give-up. Keep on in what you believe and keep on proving that you’re not as bad as what people think.

Kita takkan mampu puaskan hati semua orang. Ada orang kata jadi blogger kena buat itu, kena buat ini. Apa yang nak dibuat kalau kita tak mampu penuhi apa yang orang kehendaki?

Bila ada yang buat onar di blog kita, rasa hati mahu saja diburu sampai ke lubang cacing. Namun apa gunanya selain menyakitkan hati sendiri sedang si pelaku onar ketawa terbahak-bahak melihat kemarahan kita. Biarkan. Biarkan dia dengan kebodohannya. Kita takkan rugi apa pun, mereka lah yang lebih rugi kerana menyakiti hati orang lain.

4. Pertahankan maruah bila perlu

Jadi artis selalu je kena prank. Satu hari, kononnya ada perjumpaan khas dengan peminat dan pada masa itu, kononnya peminat Yunho dituduh mencuri. Kemudian mendapati peminat tersebut tidak bersalah. Yang menuduh kemudian nak buat donno dan nak blah terus, tapi Yunho bertegas supaya mereka meminta maaf.

Berdiam mungkin merupakan pilihan yang baik. Namun ada kalanya kita perlu bersuara mempertahankan kebenaran. If anyone rude to us, its normal to demand for apology. Dalam dunia blogging, walau orang tidak mengenali anda, itu bukan lesen untuk kita bertindak sesuka hati.

5. Jangan hadkan diri kepada sesuatu bidang sahaja. Try something new. Go international

Yunho mula menyertai SME sebagai trainee ketika berusia 13 tahun setelah memenangi pertandingan menari. Beliau menjadi penari latar serta rappers sebelum debut bersama Dong Bang Shin Ki pada December 2003. Setelah bertapak di Korea, mereka cuba memasuki pasaran Jepun pula pada 2005. Menjinakkan diri dalam bidang lakonan dalam siri drama santai sekitar 2006, dan terpilih memegang watak utama dalam drama Heading To The Ground pada 2009. 2010, satu lagi sejarah tercipta apabila dia terpilih menyertai Micheal Jackson’s posthumous concert “This Is It”, konsert yang mulanya dirancang oleh Micheal Jackson sebelum kematiannya.

Terdapat banyak platform untuk berblog seperti blog frienster, blogger (blogspot), wordpress.com, blogdrive, xanga, livejournal dan multiply. Banyak yang memilih untuk mengguna blogspot kerana ianya antara blog percuma terbaik. Namun tidak selamanya kita akan menggunakan blogspot. Mencuba medium blog yang berlainan juga ilmu.

Dengan menggunakan self-host wordpress, aku belajar mengenai asas SEO, trafik, keyword. Kerana payah mencari tema wordpress yang berkenan di hati, ilmu CSS dan HTML didalami. Bila blog diserang virus, barulah tahu pentingnya back-up dan security. Dalam masa yang sama belajar guna WAMP server dan local-host. Dan bila berhosting sendiri, subdomain dan cpanel menjadi bahan eksperimentasi.

Cukupkah hingga begini? Tidak, phpBB belum dipelajari, mungkin nanti nak bina web bentuk forum pula. Drupal dan Joomla hanya pernah didengar, ingin juga meneroka.

Go international? Ya, takkan selamanya mensasarkan target pembaca Malaysia. Bila mana ada entri yang aku rasakan tiada pembaca Malaysia berminat, aku targetkan pembaca antarabangsa. Alhamdulillah, entri Queen Seon Duk from history perspective mendapat sambutan pembaca antarabangsa, malah menjadi medan diskusi sejarah Korea. Terasa bezanya bila entri mendapat perhatian pembaca antarabangsa, walaupun tempat komen mungkin menjadi tempat meroyan para peminat seperti entri Interview Kim Nam Gil ini.

Blog merupakan medan komunikasi. Its how we interact. As how U-Know Yunho and his group members capture fans hearts, that what i want to learns.

Setiap apa yang ingin dikecapi, perlu ada usaha. Yunho mengambil masa lebih 10 tahun untuk sampai ke tahap sekarang. Without strong will, its not something easy to achieved.

Sebenarnyakan, Yunho tak ajar pun….tapi kebetulan je sama..MFEO???hehehe

p/s: yunho-shi, bulan depan duduk praktis kat US, sila belajar English bebetul ye….then, when come the time when our line cross, we can easily communicate eyh…yadda….

By music writer Itou Hironobu

Tohoshinki just released their first best album “BEST SELECTION 2010″ in 2/17. On this occasion, I have recollected and compiled all the interviews and information I made about them up until now. Moreover, in the photo gallery, there is a collection of photos from their 2007-2008-2009 live tours, as well as photos from their various release events and jacket photos from the singles whose songs are included in this album.

What TVXQ Has Been Feeling While Having Activities in Japan

Five years after making their debut in Japan, Tohoshinki finally released their first best album “BEST SELECTION 2010″. With their skillful dancing and excellent singing abilities where every each of the five members can be the lead vocal, the miracle named Tohoshinki has swept away the Japanese music scene. While listening to this album of Tohoshinki, I recalled my memories of them up until now.

I first met them in their dressing room during their live tour in 2007 at Nippon Budoukan. It was for the report of the live for their “SHINE” photobook. Half a month later, I had a chance to meet them again in Okinawa where they were having photoshoots for “SHINE”. Since I was in charge of writing about the photoshoots, I had a chance to talk to them while we were eating together. Through their talks of Korea, of their life in Tokyo, etc.… their honest personality has left me a very deep impression.

Tohoshinki already had their big break in Korea when they first set their feet on the land of Japan. When they first arrived at the airport, “there was hardly any fan,” said Yoochun. Although they were already a Korean top star to the point that there would be no empty seat at their concert, they debuted in Japan as a new artist. While still having culture and language barriers, they accepted the reality and started out singing acapella at small live houses and going to handshake events. Junsu recalled that they were very frustrated for not being able to convey their feelings due to their lack of language skill.

“For us, Japanese activities were our very first challenge, so we felt very anxious and insecure. However, when we looked at the faces of our fans while singing, we felt very happy and thought that we should work even harder.” (Junsu)

Changmin also said, “When we first had our debut, we were so busy everyday that it became a luxurious dream for us to do what we wanted to. However, when we saw the smiles of our fans during our tour, we were able to gain more confidence to carry on to our next dream.”

Three years after their debut in Japan, in 2008, their Japanese became fluent, and it seemed like they were also able to enjoy their private life. Yoochun also talked about it.

“I do go to Shibuya sometimes. Those are times when I want to eat hokke [mackerel] (LOL). Tonkotsu ramen is also very delicious, isn’t it!”

“The moment I take a bath after coming home is my most relaxing time! However, I’m also the type of person who only take a quick dip in a bathtub and get out dancing when I bath by myself (LOL)” (Junsu)

Even though they are a top star, their every life is just as normal as everyone. I still remember their simple and down-to-Earth personality even now.

About the Songs of “Member’s Choice” in DISC 2

The process of their five years that they earnestly spent growing up together engraved in this “BEST SELECTION 2010″. From their debut song “Stay With Me Tonight” to “Stand by U”, all of the singles were compiled and put together in DISC 1. While listening to it, we are able to feel their talent and individuality as well as their flexibility and sense in different genres of music.

The included songs are probably there to remind their fans of the memories they made. When one listens to a song, that person might be able to recall the time and place that are related to that song. I think such kind of deja vu songs are not rare. For me, that deja vu song is “Summer Dream”. It reminds me of the first time I wrote about their photobook in Okinawa.

At that time, I went to Okinawa to write about their music video of “Summer Dream”. At that time, the temperature was over 30°C with a very extremely sun. However, no matter how much they were sweating, they kept dancing and dancing until the scene became perfect. When I listen to this song, I am able to recall the figures of them dancing at that time. Moreover, I heard from the staff that even though they had filming schedule from early in the morning until late at night and only had a few hours of sleep, when they had some free time, they would immediately dive into the hotel’s pool. I remembered them also for their ability to distinguish between on and off, and their ability to concentrate when they have to work.

“BEST SELECTION 2010″ comes with 3 versions – 2CD＋DVD, CD＋DVD, and CD. Amongst the three of them, CD＋DVD version contains the songs of “Member’s Choice” in DISC 2. That reminds me of the question, “What song would leave the most impression in their memories?”

“For me it’s “Love in the Ice”. When we first sang it at and event, I saw people who were shedding tears while listening, I felt like crying too. This is a very deep song that is leaves a great impression in my memories.” (Yunho)

“For me it’s “Purple Line”. The highlight is Yunho’s rap. I thought to myself, “He’s so cool. Doesn’t he sound like an American?” (LOL)” (Jaejoong)

Jaejoong also talked about “Forever Love”, “No matter how many times I sing it, I always get goosebumps, and that’s how much I love the song.” The song he chose this time is a little bit different from what he said that time. It’s probably because that as time passes, he was able to make new memories with the song he chose this time.

I suddenly remembered something. It was during the photoshoots for the photobook at Araha Beach in Chatan, Okinawa. While the sun was slowing approaching the horizon, they were having a break. Without having to say a word to each other, they immediately took out the bats and balls, and started to fool around like teenagers on the white sand. No matter if it’s working or playing, they always give it their best. Even now, I still remember vividly the figures of them who were soaking in the orange color of the setting sun.

Tohoshinki is a group of five people who have the best performances and personalities. As the time piles up, I believe that they will keep fascinating more people into their charisma and never stop shining.

I want to embrace you more

Wo wo wow

Hitotsu hitotsu kimi no koto wo oboe nagara
While remembering about you one by one

Eien dake shinjiteta
I believed in only eternity

Toki wo tomete zutto kimi no soba ni itai
I want to stop time and be by your side all the time

Miageta sora
To the sky that I looked up

Negai komete
I made a wish and

Wo wo wow

Hitotsu hitotsu kimi no koto wo oboe nagara
While remembering about you one by one

Kimi no katachi sagashiteta
I was looking for your silhouette

Wo wo wow

Toki wo tomete zutto kimi no soba ni itai
I want to stop time and be by your side all the time

Motto kimi wo daki shimetai
I want to embrace you more

Wo wo wow

Hitotsu hitotsu kimi no koto wo oboe nagara
While remembering about you one by one

Eien dake shinjiteta
I believed in only eternity

UPDATE AS OF 22 MARCH 2010:

This is the PV for this song:

As expected it will come out nicely……but did you guys notice the star shining in the PV, it was around 1:16 :

In one glance we will immediately will think of one word ~~> CASSIOPEIA

Thanks to production team that produce such a meaningful PV in such indirect way. The clips even filmed in a Planetarium. (Uwaaa…..i’m so touch). Plus the ‘star’ appear when the sing:

Toki wo tomete zutto kimi na soba ni itai
I want to stop time and be by your side all the time

Another pic posted by DBSKnight, which shown member position which resemble cassiopeia stars; and Cassiopeia map from Wikipedia:

Cassiopeia is a constellation in the northern sky. It was one of the 48 constellations listed by the 2nd century Greek astronomer Ptolemy, and it remains one of the 88 modern constellations today. Cassiopeia is easily recognizable due to its distinctive ‘W’ shape formed by five bright stars.

TVXQ’s 2010 Best Selection Albums have been sold about 228,542 copies on the first day selling isn’t it…

& another 650 000 shipped out today

chukaheii

should be a great news for your birthday ne~

TRANSLATION:

As soon as the album went on sale, it created a breakthrough with a total of 650,000 copies shipped out.(!!!!!)

Starting from yesterday, CD shops in Shibuya, Shinjuku, and other places all around Japan have been on a Tohoshinki craze,
and the stores have had long lines in front of them since the time they opened.

Additionally, 23 shops throughout Japan are having a extended SPECIAL DAY counter,
and the special goods also went on sale.
(http://toho-jp.net/info/)

Moreover, one thing that really caught my attention is that
although a lot of female fans were lining up in front of CD shops at noon,
it changed drastically at night
as a lot of male customers were having trial listening of Tohoshinki’s best album.

Their music has touched the audience regardless of gender.

I have a feeling that this will become a bigger and bigger break.

The history of Tohoshinki who started everything from scratch in Japan and walked their way up steadily,
their diligence and unceasing efforts,
their passion for music,
their “feelings” towards each and everyone of their fans;
are all included in this album.

This is a best album with a very deep meaning,
so please support “BEST SELECTION 2010″!
