[News] Fans plan to set up their own internet broadcasting station for JYJ

JYJ fans have set out to open an internet broadcasting station specifically for JYJ.

Despite achieving tremendous results with their first worldwide album, “The Beginning“, fans have been unable to hear their favorite trio sing on live broadcasts (aside from a congratulatory performance on KBS’s “Drama Awards“).

Motivated by their frustration, fans stepped forward and began collecting donations for an “Exclusive JYJ Internet Broadcasting Station.” With March 3rd as its scheduled broadcast date, fans have secured a server and are currently hiring DJs, scriptwriters, web designers, and other necessary staff members.

One fan commented, “It will be done in the same style as ‘Radio 21.’ We’ve prepared a large server that will be able to handle a large influx of fans.“ Another fan added, “Through perseverance, we have prepared a broadcasting station for JYJ, who have been met with difficulties on preparing on public broadcasting networks. We promise to immerse ourselves in JYJ and their music all day long, and to create a hot response so that public networks are forced to request their appearances on their shows.”

A hiring message on the program’s board reads, “We’d like to alert everyone that there are people that have bought the necessary equipment with their own money. The station will be run as non-profit, and hired staff (even if they have a Harvard diploma) will not be paid. The members of JYJ will see this homepage (Wouldn’t they be curious?).”

At such welcoming news, JYJ fans commented, “If we need a miracle, we will create it. Fighting, JYJ and fans!,” “Can we donate, I want to help in any way I can,” and “This is a respectful act, you are creating miracles.”


Sometimes I kind of hate fans because of fanfics or their behavior, but at times like these I can't help but admire them.

I had another one. This one wasn't weird at all. I guess I've been thinking about it too much. So it was about the reunion. First Yoosu met up with HoMin and it went very smooth. Jae wasn't there for some reason and the four of them were sitting at the table and it looked like backstage of some bradcasting station. And then Jae came and in a second he burst into tears. Changmin was the first to come hug him and then Yunho. I was sort of waiting my turn but I didn't get to in the end. I wonder whether maybe I was Junsu or Yoochun, but I don't remember actually seeing them so I don't know. Anyway, it must have been after Yunho hugged him that all the others joined and formed this human snowball to sort of hide him from prying eyes because we still were in a public place and he wouldn't stop crying. That was it basically because the next thing I see is Jae ends up in this big transparent hottub. Must be too much Intermodulation))

and another one...

It's funny how just today I wrote that I want to know HoMin's point of view and this article came out. Even though I'm sure it was largely ratified by SM, it's still something. I feel more at ease now somehow. There are many JYJ fans who were outraged almost, especially by what Changmin said. But me, I don't feel that way. For some reason I was almost glad to know he's angry. Maybe because it means he cares. Anyway now it really begins to look like a huge ridiculous misunderstanding. Similar to what KangTa said about HOT. Even too similar in fact. But it's kind of hard to believe, I mean they had so much time to talk it all out. And Yunho sounding regretful they can't resolve this... Well, what's stopping him? SM? It doesn't make sense. Anyway, I'm still confused about how to feel about them. In a way I do sympathize. I can only imagine how hard it must have been, especially for YunHo. He must have felt he failed as a leader. On the other hand though they knew what SM is like. You're either with it or against it. They had to know it will turn out like this.
And I keep thinking about that article about Tony and how years after their breakout from SM he became a CEO himself and then he gained a lot of respect for LSM and was kind of apologetic about his previous stance.
This whole shit got on my nerves so much lately, it even came to the point I'm reluctant to listen to any SM artist, just because they're SM. It's not intentional, just a feeling. Hopefully I'll get over it soon.

My mind is really weird. Why can't I have really nice dreams? I don't complain, not really, but damn it's amazing what dreams I come up with. I wake up and go: WTF? Tonight a part went like this: HoMin were doing a gig in what looked like a big classroom and with the very first song (was there even a song?) they put on such a show that would make Vanilla live look innocent. I only caught the very end of it though and when they were done making out on one of the desks it was hilarious to see Yunho grab his clothes and holding them against his family jewels disappear at the back of the class. I'll skip the part about meeting the fans and collecting signed eggs as fangifts, but it was really amusing.

Big Post Of Fandom Frustrations

Isn't fandom supposed to be your hiding place? Your sweet escape from the cruel world? Right now it's driving me nuts. There all all these little things that add up and frustrate me to no end. Such as:

HoMin released a really good album and I'm sure the lives are good too except I can't bring myself to even look at them. I don't hate them or anything, I just can't.
Willowwing writes OT5. I already told her: "You too, Brute." Why can't I write? Then again I have too much to do as it is.
Shigai says she is disappointed with the fans and lost her will to draw. So childish.
All the Junsu bashing deal is ridiculous. I'm not saying he is all innocent and right, but this is stupid. You can scold someone for acting this or that way, but you can't scold someone for feelings.
All these people saying how disappointed they are. It seems to be the bitter keyword. Well, I'm disappointed at people getting disappointed so easily. If that even makes sense.

SBS seems to be full of shit. I was so glad they were brave enough to do a broadcast of JYJ and it was scheduled for the 5th of January, but then they keep moving it, each time setting it for a later date. Now they promise the 20th is final. We shall see. A number of shows invited them, but they were all cancelled eventually. Pussies. Well, I should be thankful to KBS at least.
Also,

this!

I don't think I've ever felt so jealous of any of them. But this time... they look so real somehow. I'm gonna go crazy when the actual musical starts.

I think Nicola looked pretty hot as a chick, especially for a 46-year old non-Asian man. I don't choose my bands, really, they choose me.
Finally got my hands on that DVD with videos. It's been 5 fucking years since I was looking for it. And it was worth it. The videos are beautiful if a little weird. But that's French for you. Also I just found out he had been married, twice. I kinda thought he was gay. Well it's beeter for him, at least he has a daughter. And Lou is all grown up now and has her own band. Not surprising considering her background. And she's quite unpretty too like most rock chicks.
It's good to have backup fandoms ))

Еще совсем недавно мама ворчала, что мы с сестрой вечно как уткнемся в свои компьютеры... так вот, теперь проблема решена. Мама купила нетбук, теперь мы все трое вечерами будем сидеть как суслики в норках. А еще у меня недавно новая кличка в семье - сисадмин. Сама придумала. Ибо в квартире то и дело раздаются возгласы типа: "ой! ниработаит!" и я вздыхая иду искать источник поломки. А источник поломки сидит и смотрит типа: "я ниче ни трогола, оно само!" Осталось только бороду отпустить и найти старомодный засаленый свитер.

I'm exploring torrents. Indulging the French in me. Downloading Indochune videography I've been looking for for years. The speed is 5-20 at best, but it's fun in a nostalgic sort of way. Back in the day in took me hours just to download a song. But that way every song and every video was so precious. I'm almost worried one day I'll find everything I was looking for and it won't be as fun.



I downloaded Christophe's Inventaire tout en Acoustic gig. I have a thing for small cozy acoustic gigs. And I really prefer him fresh from Nouvelle Star - unstylish cute sweater, unkempt shaggy hair, glasses and all. Barefoot, he was sitting on that stool like a bird. And then he took the piano... Damn, that's a low blow. My brain almost stopped working for that one amgical hour and it almost seems as if I was holding one breath through all of it. One of my favourite gigs ever. I was scandalized when Mum said: "He's good." He's not good. He's fucking brilliant.

Mary Stayed Out All Night

Finally done with 'Mary'. The broadcast ended before NY, but the subs didn't come out until now.
First of all, it was a good ride.))

I was a little disappointed it had such low ratings and didn't get many awards at Drama Awards. Personally I think it's a good watch.

I do think 'Mary' was quite underrated. The plot is not that great, but Korean Dramas is not exactly Fine Art and shouldn't be judged as such. I think there's a lot of bias involved. Recently I try to just watch without being judgemental and I keep finding new aspects even about dramas that aren't that great. Like with Heading to the Ground that received harsh criticism - it wasn’t the best drama, but there were still a lot of things I liked about it and the secondary characters were really interesting.

With Mary as soon as a trailer came out everyone moaned: yet another drama where two gorgeous guys fall for an unpretty mediocre girl. I am not an exception. Yet as drama unfolds, towards the middle I begin to see other aspects and understand the characters more deeply. Then I was able to look at the situation in a whole different light. It’s not just attractive men all of a sudden developing feelings for a simple girl. It’s not a Cinderella scenario. In fact they’re just boys that grew up without enough love and care and she’s a very homely motherly figure. So in the end I didn't see anything that would make her a lesser girlfriend.

One of the best things about the drama is the soundtrack. Or more specifically the songs by Jang GeunSuk. Really I've seen him sing before in You're Beautiful and I thought he was good, but this... these songs really brought the best of his voice. My Precious was like a warm soft blanket for me this winter.

Wardrobe. At times this drama felt like a fashion show. The amount of designer clothes showcased in it is uncountable. You can see all the trends of this season. It's a bit ridiculous seeing every character wear new clothes in every scene but as I said, I don't mind these things. But really, MooKyul had way too much clothes for a poor street musician who had a hard time paying the rent.))


Coming up next: ??? There's Paradise Ranch at the end of the month but right now I really don't feel like watching it. Also there's one with Yoohwan in February but I never liked the guy. Hopefully something else comes up, I got so used to dramas.

Why?

"Keep Your Head Down"

"You keep you'r head up and keep an open mind."

Yet another coincidence? Somehow I don't think so. To me it's another confirmation that I made the right choice.

Anyway, what I wanted to write is not this. And not the moronic boycotting and all that shit. I wanted to say I really like the new album. I was listening to it and I kept waiting for a lousy song but it never happened. The only thing I don't like is this, as one reviewer called it "creepy-gremlin-gibber-chipmunk rap". I disliked it ever since Mirotic. But that's about it. Even Funny Honey Bunny is kind of cute. SM did a really good job. The boys did too, of course, but now that I look at it all they did was sing except I think one song with lyrics written by Changmin. The good songs are all thanks to the composers. I can see SM mobilizing all resources to make this album a real hit.

As for the MV... I can't help but laugh at it. But maybe that's a sort of defensive mechanism. To me the song has a bad feeling. I don't like what it stands for. In a lot of senses. In trying way too hard, in the lyrical meaning. I don't even know.

I wish I could just enjoy the music without all the wanking, all the emotinal luggage. But I can't. The album is good, it really is, but it's hard to for me to simply take it for what it is. For awhile it seemed like I could, but now I see that I can't. I'm so tired of this. And I'm afraid there is much more to come.

(Junsu) Till now, I believed that.. it wasn’t true.. it couldn’t be true.. We all used to share the same thought that.. they are the enemy of all five of us ..It seems they were not the enemy to all of us.. To show thanks.. to that which we all once considered to be our enemy… Many things must have happened during the times we were not together.. I feel so worn out; (5:27pm KST)

(Junsu) I’m trying to think.. hear.. and see only good things.. I’ve been doing that till now.. But I’m finding that so hard to do today.. Though we are apart ..This isn’t right hyung… We used to share the same thoughts.. Why.. Why.. Why are you doing this.. (5:30pm KST)

(Junsu) I must love everything.. I must embrace everything.. I must embrace all of that.. That’s what I should do.. ^^ (6:40pm KST)

(Junsu) On our beautiful dream, all this is, is an ordeal we must face right now.. When the flowers fall, we will start again.. start again.. start again.. again.. we have to (6:42pm KST)
