After a two-year hiatus from the Korean music industry, TVXQ made a triumphant return last week. On January 12th, members Yunho and Changmin held a press conference to discuss the various issues surrounding their comeback.
Yunho started, “We came back for the first time in two years and three months, and I swelled with emotions when I saw how many fans came. I wanted to show everyone an amazing live and worked hard to achieve it, but unfortunately, I caught a cold. Although I received IV treatments, my voice still didn’t improve in the morning, so I worried a lot. It still hasn’t improved yet.”
Changmin added, “I don’t think I was as nervous as I thought I would be. It was really exciting and fun.”
When asked about the efforts they took on as a two-membered TVXQ, Yunho replied, “While preparing for the album with only two members, I thought that I had to make it live up to the standards of ‘TVXQ’. TVXQ was known for its strong performances and lives, so there wasn’t a single thing we could slack off on. We brought about a lot of changes on the high notes, and switched parts for every different genre.”
In response to JYJ’s earlier interviews where Jaejoong, Yoochun and Junsu said that they tried to contact Yunho and Changmin but they weren’t able to, TVXQ’s Yunho denied that ever happened.
Yunho said especially that “the story was not true” and “they never tried to call him.”
He says, “Also, I wanted to contact them but its a situation where all three of them changed their phone numbers. But, if they tried to call from numbers I didn’t recognize, there’s a chance I didn’t pick it up because of that. I get quite a lot of prank calls so it’s difficult to pick up all of the unknown phone calls.”
Translations of Junsu’s latest tweets , according to what a poster at akp has said:
Awe. Some. JYJ’s Music Essay Their Rooms, which features personal thoughts about what’s on their minds, is #1 at Amazon Japan, as of 1:48AM EST.
On January 10 at Seoul’s Namsan Arts Center, ‘Tears of Heaven’ actor Brad Little complimented Kim Junsu in an interview at today’s open rehearsal press conference, full with feelings of anticipation towards his fellow musical co-star.
“Junsu is a sexy and handsome young man who has interpreted the character Joon very well, so he really suits the role. There was a scene where I had to be angry at him, but because I was so immersed in the role, I felt a sense of jealousy for him. An American pop singer, Cher, received the an Oscar award through a musical, so for Junsu, I believe that something similar will happen to him too.”
He also added, “As this is my first time acting with Junsu, but I think it has been a really great idea. When we act together, it’s very interesting. There are many American pop singers who have gone into musicals as well.”
