[09.08.26] Dongwan’s memolog: Don’t get it wrong – 2

Was it 5 years ago..
My ex-girlfriend saw that I was getting on fine even after we had broken up
And freaked out…

I have no particular intention.
I didn’t write it thinking that she would see it..
I just wrote it. ㅜㅜ

And…
Always making assumptions
And getting the wrong idea, can you not do that?
My hands and feet…. are curling up (*a phrase that means to say “I’m cringing”)
ㅋㅋㅋ

[09.08.21][news] One More Time, copyright controversy…Lee Min Woo-song writer

START EMPIRE MEDIA, MANAGEMENT COMPANY FOR GROUP JEWELRY HAVE BROUGHT TO LIGHT ABOUT ACCUSATIONS OF PLAGIARISM TO THE GROUPS PREVIOUS HIT “ONE MORE TIME”. THE SPACE OF INFRINGEMENT IS NOT CLEAR TO BEGIN WITH, WE DO NOT KNOW WHY SUCH ACCUSATIONS ABOUT PLAGIARISM BEGAN.

THE LYRICIST TO THE SONG WAS SAID TO BE LEE MIN WOO, THERE HAS BEEN REPORTS THAT THE SAME SONG IS REGISTER UNDER TWO OTHER FOREIGNERS NAMES, MARCO AND CARLS BOTH UNDER THE KOREA MUSIC COPYRIGHT ASSOCIATION.

START EMPIRE MEDIA STATED, THAT WHEN THEY REGISTERED THE SONG “ONE MORE TIME” WE ALSO REGISTERED THE NAMES OF THE ORIGINAL COMPOSERS FROM OVERSEAS. HOWEVER, WHEN WE DID THE KOREAN LYRICS TO THE SONG, WE PAID HIM FOR THE LYRIC WRITING AND ALSO GAVE UP THE COPYRIGHTS TO THE SONG.

IS IT NOT TRUE THAT WE CHANGED THE NAMES OF THE ORIGINAL COMPOSERS OF THE SONG.

THEY ALSO STATED, “WE ALSO HAVE LEE MIN WOO NAME ON THE ALBUM BECAUSE HE WROTE THE KOREAN LYRICS FOR THE SONG. (unrelated info ommited)

[09.08.23] Minwoo’s Cyworld minihompy diary update

2009.8.22 Saturday 21:30

I haven’t been scribbling in my diary for a long time now…
After being swamped with the concert, I’m just recovering from the aftermath after it ended~
A whopping 4 hours!! But it felt like just a 40-minute concert to me!!
What a pity–… I always feel some disappointment–…
But it’s fine as long as the people who came just to see me didn’t feel disappointed…
Those 4 hours dancing and singing together with me!! Your love is worth it for me to sing for you forever…
On stage I closed my eyes~ and prayed…
Thank you really~ Thank you all for being there together with me~ ^^
It has been very tough with the floods, earthquakes, storms and other natural calamities
Fortunately local and overseas fans were unharmed ^^
Thank you to the fans who didn’t let these get in their way and came to the concert anyway~
It was tough for all of you in the sweltering heat but I’m really grateful to all of you for being able to enjoy yourselves with me until the end…
It was really a happy time when I could really feel the love of the fans~ ^^
To the fans who couldn’t make it~ Don’t be disappointed~
Because this concert isn’t the end~ ^^ (Who am I~~? ㅋ M)
Whether it’s a big or small performance, I, Lee Minwoo, swear that,
As long as there’s one fan who wants to see me perform, I will dance and sing for her my whole life!!
The moment I go on stage I love all of you more than anyone else~
That day our Choong Jae and Cherry both came by too, thank you~~
To the members who couldn’t make it, thank you too^^
The ones that I really want to thank are the fans who are reading this diary entry right now~ Thank you so much ^^

[09.08.22] Lee Minwoo on SBS Star Junior Show (consolidated articles)

On the 22th Aug episode of SBS variety programme Star Junior Show, M Lee Minwoo was picked by the panel of stars’ parents as the star who had his first kiss at the youngest age without parents finding out.

Interestingly, the parents all had different reasons for picking him. Lee Ji Hye’s mother said to the amusement of everyone, “His eyes are very charming when he smiles, and can melt just about any girl. That’s exactly the style I like.”

Lee Minwoo’s mother picked her own son too, affirming his popularity with girls and his status as a ladies’ man since he was young. “I’ve lost count of the number of girls who were sticking to him.”

Lee Minwoo himself also made a confession out of his guilty conscience that he stole money from his mother when he was young. “I ran out of pocket money and took money out of the cash register at my mother’s beauty salon.”

This episode of Star Junior Show will be aired on 22 August at 5.15pm.

Shifumi – I… I’m very contented with my life.
Although I’ve never been this happy before..
But it’s not that important whether I’m happy or not..

Toru – Love isn’t just about loving to begin with, it’s about falling into it.

[09.08.22] M on DBSK in a recent interview

m_dbsk

Lee Minwoo says, “(DBSK) are juniors with excellent abilities. A few months ago they were still talking to me about issues in life.. I can see that the members all have very deep feelings towards the group. Backstage, they always hold hands and pray, then cheer one another on, it’s really like us (Shinhwa). Because they’re a group with great teamwork, so I have faith in DBSK.”

“Dear dongsaengs (younger brothers), DBSK doesn’t just belong to DBSK. Don’t dwell too much on it, just keep thinking of the precious time you’ve spent together, and the fans who’ve been staying by your side faithfully protecting you. I hope you can hold on to the name of DBSK, which is a name to be proud of, and never disband. Hyung (older brother) is counting on you to do that. After this issue has been resolved, the 11 of us should all go out and have fun.”

[09.08.20] Dongwan’s reviewlog: Tokyo Tower

A quick intro to the movie:

Toru (Junichi Okada), a 20-year old man, falls in love with Shifumi (Hitomi Kuroki) who is not only married but also 20 years older than he. Complicating matters even further, she also happens to be a good friend of his own mother. Not the makings of a simple relationship, to say the least. For her part, Shifumi has all the money and possessions she could ever want. But something is missing, and it is that “something” that she finds in this very unexpected yet undeniable love for a man young enough to be her own son. The story unfolds in tandem with that of Toru’s friend, Koji (Jun Matsumoto), who also falls in love with a married woman Kimiko (Shinobu Terajima). The two couples struggle to deal with the complexities of modern relationships, in an effort to find a balance between the forces of true love and the reality surrounding them.

Bits and pieces from M oppa’s concert (16 Aug 2009, Olympic Hall)

First things first – no fanpics/fancams with this post yet coz 1) I can’t multi-task for nuts so pretty much everything is captured in my heart; 2) I’m still trying to figure out how to use that damn camera that I bought at the airport… -_-* But I’ll throw in some key news pics – more news pics and fanpics from other fans coming in the next post…

It’s gonna be tough trying to give a blow by blow account… coz for me it was one big performance from the start til the end, and not a set of songs – I don’t think it’s the best concert he has ever held (meaning the technical aspects), but I think it’s certainly the most heartfelt one… I was already starting to fight back my tears by only the middle of the show… T_T So anyway I’ll just try to fill in the parts that really left an impression on me…

Very unfortunately the venue wasn’t fully filled, which is a shame given that it’s his last concert before his enlistment. He had a performance on Inkigayo just before the concert, so I really don’t know if anything happened during that performance and how it might have affected him – but it’s the first time that I could feel M’s fatigue… He felt drained – physically, mentally, emotionally – and when he asked if he can finally rest I think no one could bear to refuse (he said that he hasn’t stopped since high school, and he really wanted to rest now, then he thanked his parents and all the fans – he choked a little here- and he sang ‘The Way Home’..) We didn’t even call for an encore tonight (granted that the concert lasted 4 hours). BUT this doesn’t mean he gave a halfhearted performance or anything – if he gives 120% usually, he gave 200% tonight…

There was a point where he said that during a performance on one of the music shows, he couldn’t see any orange color and he was really upset about it (this really got to me… and I really lost it from here onwards), after that the fans started to apologize and shouted out cries of ‘Mianhaeyo’ – he said it was ok, the fans can leave him, but not Shinhwa… He’d be really angry with us if he still doesn’t see any orange color when Shinhwa returns… T_T

Then there was a segment where some variety show called ‘Teacher’s Here’ (Boom’s one of the MCs) filmed a hidden camera segment earlier and then revealed it during the concert, where M’s high school English teacher dropped by. It was nice and all, but I thought that really really disrupted the entire flow of the concert -_-* Anyway, he then said he’s very gullible, and pretty much believes just about anything that people tell him, case in point – Wannie’s Hidden Camera segment with M and Hyesung…

He kept saying ‘Saranghae’ a lot to us today – I know he says it a lot usually, but today he really said it A LOT, it’s like he spent the last bit of his strength to make sure that we know that. Oppa, you didn’t have to, because we knew all along…

Shinhwa sightings: No HS (in Japan), no RicWan (well even if they were there they were out of sight), Andy came on stage but had to leave for filming or something, Jin turned up and stood together with the fans at the beginning of the concert…

Jin_090816

Jin2_090816

Ok… let’s talk about happier things *sigh*… Well for a start we had a lot of topless M today XDDD, maybe it’s safe to say for half of the concert? LOLOL

will upload all pics shared next time Yaksok ^^

There was of course he just HAD to bring a fan onstage and do his ‘Pretty Woman’ routine – but it was a really young cute fan who prolly will never forget this moment for the rest of her life (who would??)… Anyway throw in a few back hugs, one big front hug, a kiss on her hand, walking down the ‘aisle’ together, serenading her, cheek to cheek moments – and you get a lot of fans dying from a jealousy attack (yours truly included – A MAJOR JEALOUSY FIT)

Then when he performed ‘Summer Time’ a huge shower came down on us – that was way fun! I wish there were more of that though… ok we did have the mandatory splashes of water from M and his dancers via water bottles and water guns, especially during ‘Eusha Eusha’

Special guests: Baek Ji Young did 2 songs (she’s one helluva singer…), Cool did 3 songs, Jo Hye Ryun came on during ‘Summer Time’ (I gotta say this ahjumma is one HAWT mama – must be her TV persona but I never expected her to have such a fab bod). And Park Ji Bin turned up too – man that boy’s gonna grow up to be a bad-ass B-Boy… that poppin’ and lockin’!

Special performances: That new song that he was supposed to perform – either my attention lapsed or he didn’t sing it, coz I don’t remember it… He did SNSD’s ‘Gee’ complete with the dance steps (way better than the original LOL) featuring a comic dance segment from 2 of the dancers; and also Jason Mraz’s ‘I’m Yours’…

As always, his dance tracks always do a fantastic job of hyping up the atmosphere: Minnovation, Play My Song, Bump, Eusha Eusha etc… it was party madness towards the end, where he then ended his last concert before enlistment with ‘Last First Kiss’… T_T

I’m gonna miss him a lot… the year ahead is gonna be a tough one before the 4D and the Crajee return… T_T

On a side note, I got a pic with Omoni!!!! She’s such a friendly lady… It totally runs in the family And that’s it from me for now… Outz…

Director: Michael Mann
Date of release: 2009, US
Rating: 4 out of 5 stars

A romantic criminal and an even more charming film.
A person like John Dillinger is an amazing criminal [Very popular among the masses.!]
Who else could play this character besides Johnny Depp…
Marion Cotillard isn’t old either.. I saw her debut in ‘Taxi’…
For a moment I saw her as Meg Ryan
Although the casting is impressive and the non-fiction storyline is moving
I don’t really want to recommend it. It’s strange how other people don’t really like the movies that I find interesting.. -_-;

“I like baseball, movies, good clothes, fast cars.. and you. What else you need to know?”
It’s really a line that could captivate just about anyone.

[09.08.14] Eugene confesses, “I had a crush on Eric”

Popular SES member-turned-actress Eugene confessed that she did have a crush on Eric.

According to a staff member, during the recording for KBS2’s ‘Shin Dong Yup and Shin Bong Seon’s Champagne’, Eugene had said, “When we were still trainees together with the Shinhwa members, we spent a lot of time together. I was having a hard time and Eric came and helped me out, I developed feelings for him.”

When the MCs asked, “At that time if you weren’t fellow trainees, could it have worked out for you two?”, to which Eugene answered frankly, “The feelings were mutual, so it might have been possible.”

This episode of ‘Champagne’ will be aired on 15th Aug at 11.30pm.

[09.08.12] Thailand votes Andy for ‘best husband material’



Andy has been voted as the ‘best husband material’ by Thai viewers, while on his first visit to Thailand as a solo artist.

On 9th August, Andy – who was in Thailand for his first solo fanmeeting – appeared on popular talkshow ‘Speak Out’ on Thailand’s biggest cable station TrueVision. In a poll targeted at viewers of ‘We Got Married’, which is currently airing in Thailand now, Andy was voted as the best husband, while the Andy/Solbi couple was also voted as the best couple.

At the same time, actress/emcee Top lavishly complimented Andy, “Though he has an adorable image on the show, in person he’s a really cool and handsome guy. His humble and courteous ways are really attractive.” After the recording, she even told the fans present in the studio, “I’ve turned into a fan of Andy now”, and asked about the website address of his Thai fanclub.

Heading to Thailand 3 years after Shinhwa’s concert in 2006, Andy held his first solo fanmeeting ‘ANDY Love In Bangkok’ on 8th August, and performed his hits such as ‘Love Song’ and ‘Propose’. The successful fanmeeting also attracted fans not only from Thailand, but from China, Japan, Malaysia, Indonesia, and even Mexico, Australia and the US.

At the press conference on that day, more than 300 journalists representing over 100 publications, radio and TV stations turned up, demonstrating the high level of interest in Shinhwa member Andy, and the popularity of variety shows such as ‘We Got Married’, ‘Xman’ and ‘Love Letter’.

Andy is currently filming SBS daily drama ‘Two Wives’, and is also preparing for his 2nd solo album at the same time.

[09.08.11] Junjin postpones October enlistment date again


Singer Junjin, whose popularity as a variety entertainer has been increasing, has made clarifications regarding the delay of his enlistment for military service.

Although he had already received the notification letter for military enlistment last year on 7th October, he had postponed his enlistment date by 4 months to 28 February this year, after which he further postponed the date to October instead. Junjin had recently received the army medical check-up, and is scheduled to enlist at the 306th Reserve Corps in Uijeongbu, Gyeonggi-do. However due to personal reasons, he has delayed his enlistment date again.

During this period of time, with regards to military service, Junjin has expressed the view that “It’s a process that all Korean men must experience”. However, as a member of popular MBC variety show ‘Infinite Challenge’, and the fact that he’s currently promoting ‘Like A Fool’, his follow-up single from his mini-album “Fascination”, it’s difficult for him to make the decision on when to enlist.

A rep from Junjin’s management company said, “The change in date could have been due to his numerous projects on hand right now.”

[09.08.11] Dongwan’s photolog: Green tea fields

greenland+사본

greentea+사본

I intended to take pictures of the green tea fields at dawn so I arrived at 5am…
But I was told that no entry was allowed before 6am so I had ramyeon and kimbap at the convenience store
The ahjusshi at the convenience store then gave me tips on how to enter from the back entrance! Let’s move off~!
But..
I had to retreat and retreat when two Jindo dogs came after me…
People really died from getting bitten by these dogs..
[If people hang around here in the early morning they'd meet the Jindo Dogs that are trained to attack.. -_-*]
In the end.
Headed to the green tea fields after the sun had risen.
The fields are bigger than what I imagined, but anyway you can’t do a shoot at dawn without prior exploration…

Kim Dongwan and internet uljjang* Park Ji Hee both deny dating rumours

*uljjang (or ulzzang) 얼짱: Korean slang that literally means ‘best face’, a term used to describe someone who has a very attractive face, but most people use the term to describe people who have become popular for their looks.

So I guess this was what Wannie was referring to in the PS section of his blog entry from last night then…. -_-

===========================================================



The picture of Kim Dongwan and Park Ji Hee that has been circulating on the Internet.

Shinhwa’s Kim Dongwan has quickly refuted the dating rumors that have suddenly hit him.

On 9th August, a photo of Shinhwa’s Kim Dongwan and one-time internet uljjang Park Ji Hee, who’s 9 years younger than him, began circulating around the Internet. This photo was originally posted on Park Ji Hee’s minihompy page in a post titled “Weekend Date”, but today on 10th August, the post can no longer be seen. This has led to some netizens speculating whether the two are involved in a romantic relationship.

However, Park Ji Hee had posted a message on 9th August on her minihompy regarding the photo which read, “We only had a meal together during the weekend after pestering the very busy Dongwan oppa. There is nothing between the two of us. I’m really sorry to the fans.”

Kim Dongwan also posted an entry on his blog on the same day that read, “What~ I have my own ideal type too….! What are these congratulatory messages about..”, implying that the rumors are all untrue. After that netizens began to conclude that the rumors had no truth in it as well.

Kim Dongwan is currently serving his military duties as a public service officer in the Seodaemun Administrative Office.

[09.08.08] Hyesung’s JP Mobile Staff Diary: TOUR IN SHANGHAI 02


Arrived in Shanghai, China.
Just like last year, it was a sea of orange at the airport~
There were many placards with Hyesung’s real name ‘Pil Gyo’ written on them, and they were especially eye-catching.
It was as if the placards were the fans, screaming ‘Pil Gyo’, ‘Pil Gyo’, ‘Pil Gyo’…. ^^;;
The fans already knew that Hyesung had left the airport, but they were still reluctant to leave.


After dropping off his luggage at the hotel he headed to the concert venue for the rehearsal
Just like always there were no mistakes throughout.

This time he prepared the original Chinese version of Ahn Jae Wook’s ‘Friend’
It’s a surprise that Hyesung had prepared for the Chinese fans.

[09.08.08] Hyesung’s JP Mobile Staff Diary: TOUR IN SHANGHAI 01

The red hot China leg of the concert tour has started~


The concert in the passionate country of China has ended the way Hyesung had envisioned it

Whether it’s in Seoul, Taiwan, or in China…
The sea of orange is always burning hot, and it warms the heart.

Especially during the concerts, there were many support events in every country,
It’s almost like Hyesung and the fans have discussed it together beforehand, the coordination was perfect… Makes you want to relive the moments over and over again.

After Hyesung returned to Korea, he headed to Japan right away to record his album
On top of preparing for his concerts, he still has to busy himself with the recording for the album, everyone please give Hyesung your unlimited support and strength^^


Then, we’re about to reveal the stories that happened in China~ Let’s Go!

A day before the concert, at Korea’s Gimpo Airport~!
He was heading to Shanghai, and he was dressed casually in a pair of white flip flops, jeans and a white T-shirt

His shiny silver bag is really attention-grabbing~

How did the fans find out about Hyesung’s departure time?
Many people were at the airport to send Hyesung off.
