Kim Jaejoong, “Congratulations To MyDaily On Your 8th Anniversary!”






JYJ’s Kim Jaejoong, who has made a transformation into a movie star, has personally congratulated MyDaily for their eighth anniversary.

During an interview with MyDaily recently, Kim Jaejoong left the message “Congratulations to MyDaily On Your 8th Anniversary” with his signature.

Kim Jaejoong’s debut movie ‘Jackal Is Coming’ recently made its debut. Making an appearance as the popular star Choi Hyun, Kim Jaejoong showcased his passion and fighting spirit as a rookie movie star by doing anything and everything for his role.



Regarding this, Kim Jaejoong stated, “I didn’t feel embarrassed by the notion of doing anything for the movie, and because I worked hard for my role, I felt like I shouldn’t. Because I went in with that mindset, I didn’t think too much of it. Though I was a little worried about wrecking my image, I wasn’t too concerned.”

He also revealed his methods of self-mind control by saying, “No matter how hard it is now, I feel better when I think about the future. I relieve my stress by looking back at how much I’ve grown over time and how much I’ve gained through the process.”

JYJ’s Official Statement “A Monumental Verdict, We Thank The Fans For Their Support”




JYJ’s legal representative has released its official statement following JYJ’s agreement with SM Entertainment.

On the 28th, SM Entertainment and the three members of JYJ came to the decision that all contracts signed by the two parties had officially ended on the 31st of July, 2009, the date the trio submitted their injunction.

JYJ’s legal advisor Sejong stated, “Kim Jaejoong, Kim Junsu and Park Yoochun’s nullification injunction against their former agency became the center of society’s spotlight. By gaining two monumental verdicts against an unlawful lawsuit that abused the absolute weak position of trainees, they provided a decisive opportunity to eradicate and improve the conditions surrounding unlawful practices in the entertainment industry.”

Sejong also added, “Because of this lawsuit, institutions such as the Fair Trade Commission, the Commission on Human Rights and the Ministry of Culture and Tourism have improved legal regulations to protect trainees and rookies. Above all, by raising awareness within the industry itself, the trio have set up a sturdy foundation for rookies to pursue activities freely in a safe environment, where they are protected by the law within entertainment agencies.”

They continued to state, “Also, thanks to the cooperation of both forward-looking parties, we hope for more progress for JYJ through this agreement, which is equivalent to an outright victory.”

TITLE: Hello!!!!This is Mir!!
Hello everyone,,it's been a long time,,

In the meantime I am wondering how have you been with nothing happening,,hoho,,

These days I have been living crazily busy ~

While this is the first time that MBLAQ has come up with an album for so long I think this is also the first time we are so busy,,

Although there isn't a time where we are not busy but this time round we have a lot of individual activities which let us have a chance to learn more

I think this is the first time,,hoohoo,,

So as usual album will be a little late but I think we would not grow impatient or frustrated,,

Although everyone has been waiting a lot and got a little tired but we will always work hard in presenting the best of ourselves in our individual activities

We will also have constant meetings for the next album,,hoohoo

Without us knowing December is already here and I feel that this year will pass by really quickly,,

It is truly great to be living busily,,hmm,,

Anyway nowadays the weather has been ridiculously cold everyone please do dress well,,

Stay happy always each and everyday,,,Hwaiting ~ !

Which 2NE1 member once wanted to be a nun?




SINGAPORE: "It could be shocking, but when I was a little girl, I wanted to be a nun," said CL, when Korean girl group 2NE1 met the media on Friday, ahead of their first full-length concert in Singapore.

Apart from Bom, who expressed that she couldn't imagine doing anything other than music, 2NE1 members Dara and Minzy also gave some surprising answers, when asked what they would have done if they didn't enter the music industry.

Minzy revealed that she would have become a poet, while Dara said she would probably be an actress or a housewife if she wasn't a singer.

Dara said she had a soft spot for acting as it allows her to "be anybody I want to be, and I can slap somebody's face".

"I can't do that in real life, so I want to try it!" she continued with a grin.

The quartet, who will conclude their first global tour with their gig at the Singapore Indoor Stadium on Saturday, said they spent about two months preparing for their concert tour, and looked forward to meeting their fans here.

"We've been waiting so long to come to Singapore and have our own show and meet our Blackjacks (the collective name for 2NE1's fans) here, so we're very excited," said CL.

"And I know how energetic they are, so we're very happy to be here."

JYJ’s Kim Junsu Says, “This Was A Battle Against SM, Not TVXQ”




JYJ’s Kim Junsu recently opened up about his group’s exclusive contract nullification lawsuit.

Kim Junsu met with reporters on the 29th at a hotel in Essen, Germany and when asked about the possibilities of TVXQ getting back together now that JYJ’s lawsuit with their former agency SM Entertainment has ended after three years and four months, he stated, “I lament the fact that I’m not able to introduce myself as a member of TVXQ.” Though it wasn’t a direct answer, it seems as though even he sees the chances of TVXQ getting back together again to be low.

Kim Junsu stated, “I, too, find this situation to be unfortunate because I entered the entertainment industry and started out as a singer through TVXQ,” and “Though the situation is unfortunate and regrettable, the title of ‘TVXQ’ will always remain in my heart and I believe that other people, and not only myself, will remember and never forget the five years that I performed as a member of TVXQ.”

He continued to add, “Nothing will ever be as memorable and fill me with joy than if I could stand on stage again as ‘TVXQ’ one day.”

Kim Junsu didn’t hide his affection for TVXQ as he said, “We were fighting a battle against our company (SM Entertainment) and their unlawful practices; it wasn’t that we wanted to throw away our title of ‘TVXQ’ or leave ‘TVXQ’.”

He feels the same way about the name that introduced him to the world, ‘Xiah’. Kim Junsu stated, “When I perform in musicals, I use my real name of Kim Junsu. Regardless of what name I use, I give people my all to repay them for remembering me and coming to see me. But I started out as ‘Xiah’ and I would like to keep performing under that name as a singer.”

Though Kim Junsu made his debut and became famous as TVXQ’s Xiah Junsu, he has no longer been able to use that stage name since beginning his lawsuit against SM Entertainment.

When he released his first solo album in May, he released it under the name ‘XIA’, which was his name ‘XIAH’ from his TVXQ days without an ‘H’.

Im Seulong "Want to act well, even drank alcohol that I cannot drink"


To Im Seulong's appearance in '26 years', indeed he is worthy of being called 'God's Number'. Earnestly challenged acting in MBC drama 'Personal Taste', Im Seulong showed a more natural acting in the movie '26 years' that has been opened on the 29th. Even among veteran actors, (he) managed to blend in well without stealing the limelight. The production itself reported on Daily Topic (a kind of newspaper) about '26 years' Im Seulong is a production that showed his earnest acting talent.



◆"Wrote 'Believe in my intuition' on the scenario"

Acting as police Kwon Jeong Hyuk who lived with his sister, who died during the 1980 Gwangju Democratization Movement, in his heart, (Im Seulong) is involved in this project that condemns the main culprit of the massacre as "That man". For the sake of "That man" who plays golf, Jeong Hyuk who works with a sense of shame manipulating traffic lights is a fragile figure who jumped into the operations without any thought, suffering internal conflicts.

On the 29th meeting Im Seulong at Seoul Samcheongdong, he is different vastly from character in movie in terms of personality. Although being a rookie actor for a while, (he) calmly showed his slowly filled greed for acting, protecting his center without being shaken. Being thrown a somewhat bland question if acting was fun, Im Seulong answered smiling naturally "What difference would it made if I say".

"During the 1 and a half years of rest after promotions, (I) received acting lessons and studied watching musicals, plays and movies. Any rookie would do that, but (I) also watched the production and followed exactly the situations and lines. Although (I) acted in a drama, acting in a movie is also different. I learnt a lot though the movie. (I) did not want to miss a single thing."



From '26 years' the help from the senior actors who matched the breathing was a great encouragement to Im Seulong. Great senior Lee Kyeong Yeong was always patting Im Seulong's cheek on set, giving him his affection and encouragement. He recalled at the time of recording "The teachers, seniors didn't teach (me) but expressed it naturally" and "Because I know I was indeed labelled as an idol singer, up till there I had to calculate more surely and did preparations."

"(I) worked hard, but when preparing not to be mechanical the seniors thought of me cutely. (They) told me 'Express it according to how you feel, how you think'. At the top of the scenario, I have written 'Believe in my intuition'. Expressing it along with myself, (I) cannot go without a sense of ignorance. (I) have to unconditionally believe in my intuition in order to work hard in expressing freely. Instead of whether (I'm) acting well or not, in my opinion knowing what to express in this situation brings confidence."

Infinite members' interview on Star Column



“The moment I shine the most, as Infinite” – Sunggyu



- While preparing for this solo album, I feel it the most, the presence of members are really valuable to me.
- People always say we are too loud everywhere we go, this is the real talkative ^^
- Even we’re seeing each other everyday in the same dorm, but we still have a lot of to say.
- Talking to the members and finishing the day is becoming my daily routine too.
- We’re always together even to eat near the dorm, if one person is missing, we’ll call him “Come here quickly! Lets eat!”
- I feel less lonely during my solo album activity because the members are always beside me observing me. Especially when I filmed the MV, the members were there together (with me) until the dawn. I cant express how thankful I am.
- Dongsaengs!! I’m always thankful These last 4 years, from unknown relationship, we gathrered, like matching every piece of puzzles, one by one, and finally we made it into a perfect picture.
- As a leader, I always think of “it’s 7 people” instead of being first in Infinite.
- I’m lacking i many ways but thank you for always following me and trust me, lets be together, like always.
- The moment I shine the most, as Infinite. Lets try to shine even more in the future too! Dont forget that mind, lets continue to move forward!! Fighting!!


“Lets do it powerfully too in 2013″ – Dongwoo



- I cant express my feelings well, at that time I feel like I’m stupid, but it’d be good if they know my real feelings.
- To my family, to my fans, I cant express my heart well, sometimes it can be seen like ignorance, but you know my heart is not like that, right? Haha
- My weapon is always think positive in every situation! It’ll work well if you’re bright and always think positively.
- Instead of popularity, I always think of what can I do in my place first! Either singing, dancing or laugh just myself…
- Infinite members or personally are becoming really mature in 2012.
- It’s Christmas soon! How about making a rap among the members? Also, because it’s Christmas, meaningfully, please, lets clean the house!!!

“I am in the future…” – Seongyeol



We run from 2012, there are some hard times, but I think we won over it because we’re together.
- I gain a lot of confidence after meet the members.
- If there’re no reliable hyungs and dongsaengs, there wouldn’t be Infinite’s Seongyeol either.
- Infinite! Let’s continue to work hard! Take care well!
- Sometimes people ask me “Do you want to return to the past?” I will never return! If I can ever go, I’d like to go to the future, I want to see how I live (in the future).
- I’m hoping that I can perform even cooler as Infinite later as well.
- I’ll be Seongyeol who will develop even more and won’t disappoint you, please watch me ^^
- In the future, it’d be good if Infinite can stay like this, together as 7 members, and receive a lot of love. Not only 900 days but 900000 days, forever ^^


“Thank you” – Woohyun



- 2012 means a big year for Infinite and for me, in many ways. There is Arena Tour, also new experience of having a premiere of our show that was made into 3D movie.
- Its still 900 days for now, 9000 days, 90000 days, lets be together until then.
- We hope that we also can be your hope. I love you! Inspirit!
- Infinite, is one.
- Like 1 +1 = 2, simply one by one, the feeling of being together!
- Infinite is, as the name means infinity.
- Also, Infinite is idol.
- We’re still lacking in may ways, but as each day passed, please watch us.
- Beyond the limitation of Idol, we’ll be a really cool singer. So Infinite is one.
- Seems like in 10 years later, without change, I’ll work hard to sing in the stage, like now.
- I wonder how big a heart I’ll give after 10 years ^^


“Developing Infinite” – Hoya



- The first time I debuted and now, seems like it’s still the same. Even if it’s changed, maybe I live a bit leisurely than that time?
- My personality changed, I’m becoming more open now and from negative into positive.
- Our member is always positive, their positive energies during the activities are strength for me.
- Never ending laugh while gathering, my change also thanks to them.
- In the future, I’ll do my best to become Hoya and Infinite who will continue to change and develop bit by bit.
- I can feel what is called by alive in 2012. Concerts in Korea and abroad, solo performance as Infinite H, our 3rd mini album, also new challenge in acting which never be thought before.
- I realized so many things while preparing for our Infinite H unit group with Dongwoo hyung.

- Its like a dream for me, even its a dream, I hope I wont wake up, I’m as happy as it is now.
- Thanks to all Inspirits who came to us until now, I really want to say something, I love you ^^


“The members are my strength” – L



- Really busy, sitcom is started, have to split my time to prepare for Arena Tour, I didn’t have enough time to sleep, but somehow I feel great.
- There are always times when I feel tired, but at that time, the members will come and help me!
- In addition, hyungs always support me even though they’re busy, I come back late after sitcom filming, there are some times I have to leave early for other things too, but when hyungs’ cute message arrived, somewhat I become stronger and feels like I have to do better.
- I want people to know Infinite with 7 personalities and charms…!
- I want to hear “You’re developing a lot” steadily, not only for a while, that’s our shares.
- Infinite, who is now like a family! I hope we can continue like this in the future too.
