[News] 121124 JYJ’s Jaejoong Speaks Of His Experience Filming ‘Code Name Jackal’

Through his roles in dramas such as ‘Protect the Boss‘ and ‘Time Slip Dr. Jin‘, JYJ‘s Jaejoong has proven his competence as a formidable actor. However, he recently revealed in an interview that he wanted to try something different after his more serious roles.

This urge led him to consider ‘Code Name Jackal’ (directed by Bae Hyung Joon), where he would be able to play a more comedic character. “I always want to show something new about myself,” he confessed. “With ‘Code Name Jackal’, I wanted to do that. I’ve always played serious, heavy roles, so I wanted to spread the word that there are other sides of me, too.”

“Through my character [in ‘Code Name Jackal’], I wanted to play a more trickster, sarcastic role,” he revealed. “A lot of my personal self is melted into my ‘Jackal’ character.”

Although the film itself is not doing as well as he had hoped – against big names such as ‘Wolf Boy‘ and overseas releases – Jaejoong considered the experience to be worth it. “Personally, the mere fact that I did a film was a great chance and opportunity. Of course we must consider the success of the film, but I feel that the movie was a way for me to show myself. It was a wonderful chance and I gained many things as well. I think that acting for this film gave me strength in life, as well as giving me motivation for music.”

While filming, Jaejoong experienced the true craziness and rush of a film set. “We really filmed like crazy,” he said. “I often dozed in the middle of shooting. If I ate, I would’ve given up on sleep; if I slept, I would’ve given up on eating. In order to combine the two, I ate vitamin supplements.”

Despite his grueling and hectic schedule as an actor and artist, Jaejoong sometimes thinks about a normal life. When asked what he would like to do if he had the chance to be an ordinary citizen, he answered, “Firstly, I want to go to a bustling roadside stand. I’d eat tasty food and have a drink, then get over my hangover the day after. Then I’d go shopping and sightseeing. It’s been 8 years since I’ve visited Dongdaemun [a landmark in Seoul]. I also want to go to the amusement park and go on all the rides I want. I’ve visited a few times due to filming, but I’ve never been on anything.”

However, Jaejoong also recognized the benefits of his celebrity status, especially pointing out his fans that had supported him since his debut. “I’ve had many incidents and fallen on hard times, and every time I’m grateful to my fans,” he said. “Because I was with you, I was able to get over my suffering and pain.”

One particular encounter with a fan is emblazoned into his memory, Jaejoong recounted. “I once told a fan to study hard prior to the exam, and she ended up placing first. There’s also a fan who got into Waseda University in Japan. It was a moment where I realized the importance of my relationship with my fans.”

“For those of you who have yet to watch ‘Code Name Jackal’, I hope you’ll go into it with an easy mindset and ready to laugh. There are a lot of positive traits hidden in our movie. The more you see it, the more film-like it becomes. Thanks for your interest.” he finished.

[News] 120921 JYJ’s Kim Jaejoong To Meet Jakarta Fans

 

Kim Jaejoong, a member of South Korean boy band JYJ, has confirmed his first fan-meet event in Jakarta on Nov. 3 at the Mata Elang International Stadium in North Jakarta.

The announcement was made by the event’s promoter SH Entertainment on Thursday.

“Kim Jaejoong’s first fan meeting in Indonesia is on Nov. 3, so mark your calendar,” read the announcement on the promoter’s Facebook page.

Tickets for the event were divided into three categories; Puppy Rp 600,000 (US$62), Bear Rp 1 million and Elephant Rp 1.55 million.

Tickets for the event have been on sale since Thursday at rajakarcis.com.

Jaejoong is a former member of Korean boy band sensation Dong Bang Shin Qi, who with two other members of the band – Park Yoochun and Kim Junsu – went on to form JYJ after they were involved in a contract dispute with their previous agency SM Entertainment.

Currently all JYJ members are focusing on individual projects, with Jaejoong and Yoochun involved in acting and Junsu in his solo career.

[NEWS] 120914 “Not Possible” In Domestic, “Welcome” Abroad – JYJ’s Paradox

[NEWS] 120914 “Not Possible” In Domestic, “Welcome” Abroad – JYJ’s Paradox

The trio group JYJ (Jaejoong Kim, Yuchun Park, Junsu Kim) is unique. It is difficult to see the group in the country, but the group is doing remarkable activities abroad. The team toured in Spain, Germany, Chile and Peru and the member Junsu Kim had his solo concert in Mexico – all as the first Korean singers who ever had concerts in each country. Why is the atmosphere from inside and outside is so different? You may see an equation of Korean Pop industry’s power structure.

? Aftermath of TVXQ Controversy?

 

[Junsu Kim who had solo concert in Mexico on Sep 6]

The three members of JYJ had their debut in the year of 2004 as the quintet TVXQ under SM Entertainment. TVXQ shortly stood at the top in Korean pop industry and had 100,000 members in its fan-club. In 2009, the three members moved to the present agency and formed JYJ after ‘application for injunction to terminate the validity of exclusive contract’ against SM, claiming that 13-year of exclusive contract was too long. The lawsuit with SM is still ongoing.

After this, they have had difficulties in album distribution, venue rental, TV appearances and other things. With tremendous number of album sales and popularity, the public has not seen them in any of music/entertainment programmes for the last 3 years at all.

For example, Yuchun Park appeared in ‘SKK Scandal(KBS)’ and ‘Rooftop Prince(SBS)’ as a leading role, but no one could see his face in entertainment programmes of the both broadcasters despite the fact that actors appearing in the same broadcaster’s entertainment programmes during their drama is an unwritten rule in order to promote dramas. Even in some cases, his appearances were flip-flopped after scheduling.

First, broadcasting companies’ stance is that ‘we cannot cast the singer under legal dispute’. However, JYJ insists that ‘Independent activities are guaranteed until the ruling of the lawsuit on the merits’. Some say that this situation is because of external pressure.

“I was concerned a lot about the present situation that I can be on TV only through dramas. But I decided that it would be better to do something I can do the best, (knowing promotion would be difficult) released a solo album in May”, said Junsu Kim at the press conference in Mexico. His music video of the title song ‘Tarantallegra’ which cost him half a billion Won to make, has never once been aired.

JYJ looked overseas instead. The group betted on overseas stages with the fandom they established since TVXQ.

? Idol’s new market

The Group JYJ has done..

 

The atmosphere at Junsu Kim’s Solo Concert at Blackberry Auditorio in Mexico City, Mexico on Sep 6 was just boiling. The concert was the part of his North/South American tour followed from New York and Los Angeles. 3,000 fans were shouting his name and ‘I Love You, Junsu!’ in Korean and sung ‘Besame Mucho(Kiss me much)’ together. Fans were all sung along his latest Korean lyrics such as ‘Set Me Free’. Junsu Kim is due to continue European Tour in the second-half of this year. JYJ also toured in 15 cities from the last year to the first-half of this year and met 210,000 fans around the world.

Paradoxically speaking, the restriction in Korea domestic has become the other way into the new steps. The agency says South American tours are deficit as they are too far from Korea, but it explains that “In the manner of investment, we are trying to go anywhere as long as fans are there”.

“JYJ’s case is a condensable example of the fact that the practical power belongs to management companies, the capital itself under this idol producing system, although the popularity is earned by an idol member”, Jakga Kim, the pop-music critic commented. He continued, “JYJ showed the possibility that an idol group CAN survive by themselves, not depend on the cartel which acts on collusion with management companies and broadcasting companies”.

 “Dr. Jin” Has Joined The Ranks of Dramas with Complete Ad/Commercial-filled Time Slots.

From Ep.1 to Ep.4 of MBC’s Weekend Drama “Dr. Jin,” it can be seen that all commercial/ad slots were completely filled. The outcome is even more extraordinary considering that in the midst of fierce competition (with other weekend dramas), viewers not only continue to show extreme interest and expectations for the drama but good reviews continue to be written after each episode airs.

Especially since the drama “Dr. Jin’s ‘men of all men’ Lee BumSoo and Hallyu representatives Song SeungHyun and Kim Jaejoong captured the interest of viewers in their teens all the way up to those in their middle age, it became of great interest to advertisers.

Amongst advertisers, “Dr. Jin” attracts viewers who are “high-purchasing power” women in their 20’s-40’s. From the drama’s viewership rating up to its age-rang of viewers. “Dr. Jin” is being well appraised by advertisers. Furthermore, there is even more benefits for advertisers given the drama’s steady rise in viewership rating.

Meanwhile, as the drama progresses, Dr. Jin is continually experiencing a significant increase of interest due to the exciting development of storyline as well as the excellent performances from the main actors.

The persistent ill of the Korean miniseries having to broadcast almost as live in the later half of the series is been duplicated in Rooftop Prince. The problem is script that comes too late.

An official of the drama said on April 12th, 2012, “The script for 9th episode of Rooftop Prince hasn’t come out yet. Screenplay writer Lee Hee Myung is working alone on most of the script, hence situation like this occurs. The shooting is divided into team A, B, C, but the lead actors have many scenes together, so it’s not entirely satisfactory.”

As for the cancellation of originally planned back-to-back episode 7 and 8 broadcast on the night after election on April 12th, 2012, it’s due to insufficient footage been filmed.

Another official said, “Occupying the top spot of Wednesday and Thursday drama, the atmosphere on the filming set is great, but it’s a fact that everyone is suffering from tight filming schedule. In order not to disappoint viewers, is working very hard in filming. The actors including Park Yoochun, Han Ji Min and Jung Yoo Mi cooperate really well and work in harmony.”

The decision to make Rooftop Prince was made in December 2011 after twists and turns. But Lee Seung Gi and Ha Ji Won couldn’t revived the MBC’s The King 2 Hearts, allowing Rooftop Prince to claim the top spot in viewership ratings among all dramas broadcast at the same spot, and follow up the victory with hot pursuit.

SBS at one time was scheduled to broadcast Korean Peninsula, although PD Shin Yoon Seob of SBS Productions was confirmed as the director, it was canceled and replaced with Rooftop Prince.
