[08.02.26][news] Andy: My next goal is to develop myself as an actor

Singer/musical actor Andy's biggest goal for himself this year is to establish himself as an actor.

Andy said, "This year I'd like to act in a movie or drama. In the past I didn't add in my own characteristics into my roles, so even though I appeared in dramas, the performances were all very raw."

He also revealed, "Though I'm not really good at acting yet, but I'd like to play the role of a romantic guy or a like Sean Penn's role of an intellectually-disabled father in 'I Am Sam'."

In addition, with regards to his recent promotional activities, Andy said "Although I promised the fans that I'll definitely perform live on the first programme, three days before the recording I caught a cold. I was worried about whether I could really perform live then, but once I started the performance, my voice naturally came out. After the show, the staff members from the management agency all said that I'm really born for the stage, but I was really under a lot of pressure because of my cold. (laughs)"

[08.02.25][news] Kim Dongwan to release rock-ballad 2nd album in March


Singer/actor Kim Dongwan, who will be due for army enlistment soon, is scheduled to release his 2nd album in March.

Kim Dongwan had already planned to release his 2nd album in the first half of 2008 before he enlists into the army, and he has recently completed all recording work for the album and selected his title track. This album is scheduled for release in early March.

This album contains mostly rock ballads, after displaying his gentle vocals in Handkerchief, the title track from his first album released last June. Though Kim Dongwan is part of dance group Shinhwa, he has chosen to perform ballads in his solo project.

A spokesperson for Kim Dongwan said, "Kim Dongwan will be enlisting soon, and he is currently taking a break after completing his recording work. We hope everyone will look forward to Kim Dongwan's style of ballads.

When his fellow labelmate D Bace made his comeback stage recently, Kim Dongwan personally attended the performance to lend his support. When his own album is released, we can expect Kim Dongwan to put in even more effort.

[08.02.23][news] Andy - I have no social network on variety programmes

Shinhwa member Andy and singer Tei both say that they have no social networks on variety programmes.

When he made an appearance on KBS' Cool FM's Music Island, hosted by Tei, Andy was talking about the artistes who participated on his album when he said, "Actually I don't know how to get in touch with artistes, I have absolutely no social network when I appear on variety programmes."

At this point Tei also said, "I'm worse off, I don't have many artiste friends that I know well." Andy went on to add, "I heard that Tei has some artiste friends who you always keep in touch with, but other than Shinhwa members, I really don't know anyone else to contact. If not for the Shinhwa members, I really would descend into loneliness." Everyone in the studio was tickled by Andy's comments.

On the same programme, when Andy heard listeners share their stories about their boyfriends looking too casual, he shared his own little story, "There was once when I was out with my girlfriend, and when she told me "You look like a poor man", and that really hit me hard. After that I began to put more effort into dressing up."

This programme will be aired at midnight on 23rd Feb.

Today I went to Cheonggyecheon, the place where the people of Seoul love to take pictures
I took photos~~ Haha~/
I went there wearing very thick clothes, but I only took one picture...-_-
I found a shop selling really delicious spicy squid, so I'm very happy!


But I just went on eating and I didn't take any pictures of the spicy squid! It's really good..Hehe

To digest the food, I went to the rockclimbing park at Eungbong Station...
But it was very foggy, and it's the first time I'm using the tele-lens..
I didn't manage to take a nice picture of my favourite Seongsu Grand Bridge..-_-;;


Anyway I took one more picture as a souvenir!

[08.02.21][news] Report: UGIZ spokesperson Eric's fansigning session

Loud cheers and screams from Korean, Chinese and Japanese fans were heard outside the U.G.I.Z store at New World Lotte just a few days ago on 12 Feb.

U.G.I.Z, a brand under The Hue Company, held a fansigning session for its spokesperson Eric on 12th Feb at 4pm outside the U.G.I.Z store at New World Lotte. Despite the temperatures dropping to below 15 degrees, throngs of fans from Korea and even China and Japan were all gathered there since morning.

Wearing U.G.I.Z's layered T-shirt and hooded jacket, Eric had his unique warm smile throughout the session. He even shook hands with each of the fans to thank them for their support and for waiting in the cold.

As Eric's birthday falls on 16th Feb, the fans celebrated his birthday in advance with a cake and presents, and even held a mini birthday party when the session ended, making this an even more meaningful gathering.

Eric, who has been signed on as U.G.I.Z's spokesperson for 2 years in a row, will be starting work on a drama soon, as well as starting preparations for Shinhwa's 10th anniversary concert in March, thus kicking off his activities for 2008.

[08.02.21][news] Andy: Eric asked me if I "released a solo album as a joke"


Singer Andy reveals Eric's first reaction towards his solo album.

Andy recently appeared on KBS2's Star Golden Bell, and he commented, "Though it's a little lonely to be standing on stage alone now, but when the 6 of us are onstage together, it doesn't really make a difference if I'm there or not. At least now I'm happy that I can have the whole stage to myself." During the recording he kept showing his excitement by hogging the camera, much to the laughter of the audience.

Andy then said, "The members were all quite worried about my solo album, but they all like it now." When the MC asked, "Do all the 6 Shinhwa members really like it?" Andy then answered, "Eric sent me a text message, asking me 'Did you release a solo album as a joke? Is this for a gag show?', I felt really hurt", sending the audience into fits of laughter again.

Further fueling the atmosphere, Andy added, "During Shinhwa's activities, compared to the other 4 members, me and Eric weren't that familiar with our dance steps, so if we made mistakes on stage, we'd pretend that either we're hurt at the waist or the arms."

Catch Andy's witty comments on the broadcast of Star Golden Bell on 23 Feb at 5.20pm.

[08.02.19][fan recap] Wolf M Concert - 16/17 Feb

*some excerpts from fan recaps i found over all the forums....i wish i was there!!! just reading the recaps makes me want to laugh...then cry**

for me, jealous of the ladies who were able to watch his performance, i also wish i got the chance to watch.

16th Feb Recap

The atmosphere was great! He combined elements from both the August Explore M concert and the December X'mas concert, and added the 3 new songs from the mini-album. The live version of Believe In Love is just too nice... (I can't think of any other adjective)

The stage design was superb, and I can tell that he put a lot of effort into it. When he sang L.O.V.E, he sang while standing behind a veil, then there were little hearts that started to appear on the veil - very romantic!

After that they showed some behind-the-scenes footage of the mini-album cover shoot - he did put eyedrops after all == It's a really nice video, I wonder if they'll release it

And his mother and sister came, and Soo Jin from Sugar. There were no Shinhwa members, only 2 new singers. Then he said that he was going to attend the gathering to celebrate eric's birthday, if the fans didn't let him go off he won't be able to make it...

And when he came out during the encore, he stood on stage and said that he forgot to zip up, and zipped up in front of everyone!


17th Feb recap

The 2 shows today were just too perfect, this guy is really good at hyping up the atmosphere. The stage and repertoire were basically the same as the 16th, but there were little changes to the details.

Today Jin and Andy came, at first Jin was seated at the VIP area on level 2, then when Minwoo sang Love Is A Beautiful Word, he shouted out to Jin, then we realised that Jin was here and everyone started screaming ==

Then Jin and Andy came on stage when Minwoo was singing I Pray 4 U... Minwoo kissed the both of them, then Jin kissed Minwoo twice, and the 2nd time Minwoo turned his head so they ended up kissing on the lips! Andy kissed Minwoo too... After this Jin sang two songs

For both days, Minwoo performed two versions of Punch, with different choreography. He even played the guitar for the first version, so cool! For the encore he did a cute dance ==

For this concert he actually improvised on all the arrangement and choreography for all the songs, he really really put in a lot of work in it. Especially for the intro to A Beautiful Night and Jazz Cafe, there was even a storyline, we were all laughing out loud...

The x-rated component of this concert was even more than the one in December...he went as far as he could...licking the microphone stand, a sexy dance on the chair, tearing his shirt....I'm speechless...

For the two shows today he talked about going to the army, telling everyone not to forget and leave him when he goes to the army, and to remember him when he comes back 2 years later. Then he told everyone to support Andy's album and Shinhwa's album

As always Last First Kiss always made everyone cry, and at the final show, he cried too...

Another version....

Minwoo's really close to his family, his sister came for every show and she sang and danced along to all his songs.... He often shouted "Nuna, nuna" to his sister too. For the last show, his whole family came, his dad, his mom, his sister and his brother, and during the show he proudly proclaimed that "I'm uri omma's son"

Brian (FTTS) came for the 3rd show, and Minwoo kept on mentioning his name, and the fans also shouted for Brian to get on stage. Minwoo then pretended to get jealous and said, "Who did you call to come down? I'm very sad", and the fans started to chant Minwoo's name instead...that was so funny

Then there was another scene where a female dancer was supposed to seduce him and undo his buttons, then he jokingly hit the poor girl and refused to let her do it ^^ There was another part during the 2nd show where he ran to the front of the stage and asked one of the fans to button up for him, but she was so nervous that she couldn't do it even after a long time, and he jokingly smacked her hand

When Minwoo said to the fans, "I'm your boyfriend, so what does that make you?" The fans were probably confused and shouted "Boyfriend", then he went, "No no no, you're my girlfriend..." Everyone must have been way too high...~

Then the fans shouted out to him "You're the best!" He went on to say yes, but only for his height.... He's still concerned about his height I suppose...but the fans were all shouting "Kwaenchana!" It really doesn't matter to us, coz he IS the best...

Then Minwoo talked about the army, saying that he's heading off to the army soon, and hopes that everyone won't forget him while he's away, and told them to bring their boyfriends to visit him...the fans became all sad and said they don't have boyfriends, then changed their minds and said they do, and it's Minwoo Oppa...

Even his fans all looked really good, all the female fans were very pretty, and even the male fans were very stylish.... They all looked like they just walked out of Apgujeong! I guess it's true then, that the fans take after their idol!

Male group SHINHWA got cheated by the Japan's production company for over 5 billion won.

Last year December Asia tour management by Openworld Entertainment representative JangSeokWoo express that "The Japan local production company called up and said that the concert was gaining loss so we will not receiving any income. All the concert were sold off, and there was no coupon/ free ticket given out, such successful concert is gaining loss? We already had contacted our Japan representative lawyer and is planning to take every posibility of rights to look into this matter."

Through the proccessing, Openworld had release that there were lots of sections where not being explained, or a clear info towards it. The most curious part is that the Japan production side requested a high amount of production fee. Because the contract were written there will be 1billion yen production fee, but under no communication or diccussion it ended up 1.6 billion. 0.6billion yen is about 5.2billion Korean won. Furthermore, openworld is supecting on the ticketing sales income there were a few section being reported lessen.

Representative Jang said, "According to the Japan performance law, after the performance all the entrance ticket sold will be kept as the proof for about 6 months. And the production side express that all the concert tickets were being disposed, then when we ask about the relevant laws, they stay they are still keeping part of it. We will be officially taking actions towards this matter and investigate with our representative accounting firms and law firms in Japan."

Because there is some problem with the Japan production side, thus the last concert which hold during April in Budokan will be affected. Openworld express "We will try to search for other company to hold the April SHINHWA concert. Because there's such sudden case happened thus had made the Japanese fans feeling nervous, we apologize towards it" "SHINHWA Japan concert will still be running.

[08.02.18][news] Shinhwa's Apr concert in Japan postponed due to high production fees


Shinhwa's last concert in Japan before their army enlistment, which was scheduled to be held in April, has hit a snag. This is apparently due to problems with the local concert organizer UDO Artists Inc.

Last December, Shinhwa met their Japanese fans in a concert that brought them to Nagoya and Tokyo. Due to the overwhelming support and requests for an encore concert, there were plans to hold their last concert before enlistment at Budokan in April this year. However, the local concert organizer UDO went on to quote excessively high production fees, bringing the project to a halt.

OpenWorld Entertainment, which is in charge of Shinhwa's overseas performances, expressed that during negotiations with UDO for last December's concerts, an agreement was already reached with regards to production fees. However after the concert, UDO went on to include additional costs and fees that exceeded the original amount that was agreed upon. Thus before these issues are resolved, the April concert will be postponed until further notice.

In addition, to resolve the problem, OpenWorld will be working with their local accounting firm and seeking legal advice.

A source from OpenWorld said, "Because of unforeseen circumstances, Shinhwa fans have unfortunately become the victims, we sincerely apologize for this. As this happened after the last concert and we need to resolve the outstanding issues, so we seek everyone's understanding in this matter."

[08.02.16][trans] Actors' turning points - Eric & Kim Dongwan

(unrelated info omitted)

Shinhwa member Kim Dongwan has successfully transformed himself from a dance group member of the longest-running pop group to an actor. In his relatively short acting career, he had a turning point, which was his first movie "Spin Kick". Kim Dongwan said that this was a turning point for him because the movie bombed at the box office. Only 60,000 people watched the movie and was taken down shortly after its release. Kim Dongwan was very upset, and started to smoke again. During an interview, he said, "That was the lowest point of my acting career. The only thing I could do was to console myself. But I felt that as an actor, damaging my own body and mind would just plunge me even lower." Thus, he got back on his feet, and appeared in "Goodbye Sadness". The drama was a hit with ratings reaching more than 30%.

Dongwan's fellow Shinhwa member Eric has also stepped into the field of acting. He lists his first drama "Breathless" as his turning point. Eric said that's because prior to that he felt useless. As part of Shinhwa, he had been accustomed to the limelight and life as a group. For him to take up acting by himself, he was under severe pressure. He said that when he went to the set for the first time, he was pale, and he was so nervous and worried that his thumping heartbeat could be heard through the microphone. Although it was difficult, he managed to show his potential as an actor. Later his strong acting skills came as a pleasant surprise for many in "Phoenix". As the actor Mun Jung Hyuk, Eric is firmly in the spotlight once again.

[08.02.12][news] Shinhwa's last concert in Apr at Budokan before army enlistment


Korean pop group Shinhwa who has generated a new Hallyu wave in Japan will be holding their last concert before enlistment at Japan's Budokan, the Holy Grail of concert venues.

OpenWorld Entertainment, which manages Shinhwa's overseas concerts, said that Shinhwa will be holding a concert over 2 days on 18/19 April at Japan's Budokan. This will be part of the 10th anniversary activities, and at the same time act as the encore concert to the concert held last December. 《2007 JAPAN TOUR — SHINHWA FOREVER》 was held at Nagoya and Saitama in December 2007.

A source from OpenWorld said that "Shinhwa will be releasing their 10th anniversary commemorative album next month, and they will be having a series of activities in conjunction with the release of the album. We hope to present the theme of Shinhwa Forever during the concert in Japan."

Lee Minwoo, who just held his concert on 10/11 Feb at Tokyo International Forum, said during his concert "Though I can't say when, but Shinhwa will be back".

Shinhwa members are expected to enlist into the army after the concert, thus it is very unlikely for another concert to happen within the near future. Except for Shin Hyesung, all other members are expected to serve their military duties.

In addition, having performed to over 10,000 fans over 2 days in Japan, Lee Minwoo will be holding a concert to commemorate the release of his new mini album 《Sentimental Reason》at Seoul's Sogang University on 16/17 Feb.

[08.02.12][news] Lee Minwoo's wild performance drives Japanese fans crazy


Shinhwa member Lee Minwoo held a 2-day solo concert on 10/11 Feb at Tokyo International Forum, and this is his 2nd solo concert in Japan after March 2007. Approximately 10,000 fans attended the concert over the two days, with 4,500 fans turning up on the 1st day and 5,500 fans on the 2nd day.

Moreover, the match-off between Lee Minwoo and Sung Shi Kyung's Japan performances was of much interest. While Lee Minwoo's concert was happening on 11 Feb, Sung Shi Kyung's performance at the NHK TV station was also going on at the same time.

The ticket price of Minwoo's concert was set at 8,800yen (which is Japan's average ticket price for a first class performance), and the total earnings for the concert is expected to hit approximately 88 million yen.

During the concert, Minwoo interacted in fluent Japanese with the audience, showing the hard work he had put into learning the language. On top of that, the female fans screamed loudly whenever Minwoo showed off his buff body.

[08.02.11] [News] Andy: "When we're 40, we are still Shinhwa"

24 March 2008 is the 10th anniversary of Shinhwa, who made their debut in the late 1990s together with H.O.T, S.E.S and Fin.K.L . However, Shinhwa is the only group to have continued with their group activities. Though there are many cases of ex-group members such as Lee Hyori being very successful with her solo career, it is very rare to see a group like Shinhwa still very much active as a group.

As the longest-running group in Korea, Shinhwa has their own problems too. Due to the increase of the members' own solo activities, there have been many rumors that Shinhwa will be disbanding. Moreover last year, Eric, Andy, Dongwan, Minwoo and Junjin have either set up their own company or joined a new company for their solo careers, further aggravating the rumors about disbanding.

The 6 members of Shinhwa as a group are still managed by Good Entertainment, and have all stepped out to dismiss the rumors. This year, though several members will be enlisting into the army, Shinhwa as a group will continue after the temporary break.

Shinhwa's youngest member Andy recently commented at a press conference, "We are now preparing for our 9th album in conjunction with our 10th anniversary, and although we belong to different companies now, there is no difference from the time when we were staying together and sharing the same bowl of rice."

He added, "When we hear people saying that we're just like before, it makes us really happy and motivates us. Some of the members have reached 30 but we're just like how we were back then. It'll be best if we can continue like this."

Looking at Japan, such a wish won't be hard to realise. Japanese pop group SMAP has been in the entertainment industry for 20 years and though the members are all round 35 years old, they continue to sing and dance like before, and stay firmly at the top of the music world.

Andy hopes that Shinhwa can be just like SMAP, "The SMAP members are not only active as a group, but they have all proven themselves as actors, solo singers and other roles. We'd like to be Korea's version of SMAP."

As Shinhwa looks to SMAP for inspiration, the new groups look up to Shinhwa as role models. Big Bang who enjoyed immense popularity last year commented, "We want to be a group like Shinhwa in 10 years' time."

Andy has some mixed feelings when he sees the younger groups. He said, "As part of an idol group from the 90s, it's very gratifying to see the new groups making their debut. They have more ideas about music and at the same time they fulfill the current demand for multi-entertainers. The dynamics of group and solo activities are evolving very quickly. We need to learn from them too."

Andy who set up his own ND Entertainment last year, released his first solo album in January this year and kickstarted his solo career. The album features 10 tracks, including his main single "Love Song", which even incorporates his trademark heart dance. The lively atmosphere of the album seems to be consistent with the image that he has presented as part of Shinhwa. As the youngest in the group, Andy commented on his cute image, "When I was a kid I had many friends, but as I grew up there are still many people who think that I look cute. I can only say thank you. (Looks in the mirror) I guess I do look rather cute. (laughs)"

In actual fact it was quite a tough emotional ride for Andy during the preparation of the album. Andy said, "During that time, I heard a lot of discouraging things like 'what can Andy do by himself'. As a result I'd correct the smallest imperfection so that I could present the most perfect solo performance to everyone."

He knows better than anyone that the general audience would find it strange to see him singing. "I've never taken on a solo singing part in Shinhwa before. And because I've been doing only rap, it was the musical 'Music In My Heart' that gave me courage to release my solo album."

"There was no room for NGs in the musical. The musical actually took away a lot of my stage fright and gave me a lot of confidence. I started to really think about singing during the musical's singing practice sessions."

Having realized his dream of releasing an album, Andy continues to demand a lot from himself. He continues to make comments like, "Monitoring this part is still very difficult", "I need to pay more attention to my pronunciation here". To Andy who works hard at improving and correcting even the slightest imperfection, it won't be difficult to succeed.

Although the situation was embarrassing but he continued. "My mom said wait till there's a staff who recognizes me and we will try it again, but we know that if we keep continue doing this it won't be done, so we proceeded elsewhere."

That day with mother's unlaugh-able experience was like a short drama, with Andy's communication skills explaining his embarrassing moment, Andy in the end got the first place in 'Family' talk.

Andy had release his first solo album last month with title 'ANDY the first NEW DREAM', started off with concerts, then he sang his hit song 'Love Song' with the special heart dance to gain success of popularity.

[08.02.08] [News] Eric’s loyalty saved Shinhwa


During OBS’s Watch Show and Watch movie, Kim Dong Wan stated Shinhwa was able to stay together for a decade while other idol groups have disbanded and moved on, because the six gents tried so hard to save the group. Specifically, when Eric was offered a huge contract after he rose to fame, he did not sign it because he wanted to keep the group together.

Kim Dong Wan also expressed his appreciation for SM training days during the interview. He said that as a SM trainee, he learned not only the necessary star skills, but also the persistence and the attitude needed to succeed. I doubt that’s what current SM trainees are thinking that now.

This episode of Watch Show and Watch Movie airs today, February 9th at 9pm on OBS.
