From JYJ
Hello. This is JYJ.
We are not sure how to begin.
Due to an unexpected disaster, many in Japan are deep in sorrow and fear, and we know that among them are our dear fans, and our hearts very much ache. We pray for those people who passed away due to the earthquake on Friday and for the safety of those who are still missing.
JYJ Fanmeeting accounts from March 11 2011 -Jaejoong slept at 5am yesterday– he stayed awake worrying about Junsu. Junsu texted Jaejoong at around 4am. (so sweet) -Guests for JaeJoong is Kim Sung Su of Group Cool; for Yoochun is Yoohwan; for Junsu is Shin Young Suk! -The member that Yoohwan wants to “be like” (the most) […]
The shocking news of the terrible earthquake and tsunami in Japan set many people on high alert and prayers began to go out to the people of Japan. We became even more anxious when learning that Junsu and staff are still in Japan.
The latest reports (as of 3:45AM ET) are that Junsu is unhurt, though he did feel the quake, and that they’re waiting on the next possible time they can get on a flight to Korea once the airport reopens.

Junsu’s Tweets:
An 8.8-magnitude earthquake hit Japan early Friday, triggering tsunami warnings and sending people fleeing out of buildings in the capital.
The quake rattled buildings and toppled cars off bridges and into waters underneath. In Tokyo, crowds huddled together and tried to reach relatives via cell phone.
Its epicenter was 373 kilometers (231 miles) from Tokyo, the United States Geological Survey said.
It triggered a tsunami warning for various countries, including Japan and Russia, the National Weather Service said.
“Earthquakes of this size are known to generate tsunamis potentially dangerous to coasts outside the source region,” it said.
Is that Jaejoong? Ah, yes it is. These are pics from Jaejoong’s ELLE photoshoot:
Is avex (Japan) releasing JYJ material without allowing the group’s products to be ranked on Oricon’s chart? The answer is yes.
The act has been called despicable and unfair by a number of fans familiar with the situation.
While acting as a shill for Korean company SM, avex purposely blocked all of JYJ’s appearances in Japan. Some say that this was done in order to pressure JYJ to give in, which they didn’t.
The products in question are JYJ’s DVD “Memories in 2010” and it’s “Thanksgiving Live in Dome Live CD”. Both products were just released on March 2.
The problem is that avex is refusing to allow any of the total sales to count on the uber important Japanese Oricon chart.
