[10.07.22] Son Dambi: I once boarded Kim Dongwan’s van by mistake

Son Dambi recently participated in a recording of an episode for KBS 2TV’s “Happy Together Season 3″, and shared her experience about how she mistook Kim Dongwan’s van for hers.

Son Dambi said, “There was this once when I was part of a performance where many other singers attended and there were lots and lots of people.”

When her part ended, she made her way through the crowds and squarely boarded the van, telling her manager, “Oppa, let’s go!”. However a strange feeling overcame her.

As it turned out, Son Dambi did not board her own van, and boarded Shinhwa member Kim Dongwan’s van instead. “But there were too many people outside so I couldn’t alight from the van, and so I had to stay in the van, all embarrassed.”

So how did Son Dambi get out from Kim Dongwan’s van? Tune in on 22 July to KBS 2TV to find out.

[10.07.14] Dongwan’s memolog: Compass

When I travel or have overseas schedules I always bring a compass along with me.
I must sleep with my head facing either north or east…
When I have insomnia I face north. When my body’s feeling really tired I face east…
Is this very strange?
When I was talking about it today people were laughing really hard….
I’m troubled… Because it’s supposed to be a secret…
But what will people say if they see me with a compass?
Will they say that I’ve lost my way…-_-;
Even so I’m still going to bring my compass along.

[10.07.13] Dongwan’s memolog: Little friends~

Because there are things that require attention,
And things that don’t require attention…

Having to bother with even trivial matters
When there’s already less than 5 months to go before being discharged from military service,
If it’s nothing more important than preparing for new schedules, just pass!

Please send me happy e-mails~^^
As it is, a thirty-year-old ahjusshi is already under a lot of stress~ㅜㅜ

[10.07.13] Shinhwa’s Eric, Kim Dongwan and Andy show support for Teen Top

After watching the debut performance of Teen Top with “Clap”, for Shinhwa members Eric, Kim Dongwan and Andy it was a case of “it feels like we’re watching ourselves from 10 years ago.”

Before their debut performance, Eric and Andy, who have been monitoring their practice, said that it felt like looking at Shinhwa preparing for their debut back then. Kim Dongwan also posted a photo of Teen Top on his personal blog, describing them as “Andy’s ambitious project” and helping to promote them.

Teen Top is a new group from Andy’s management company, and the group consists of members that Andy picked out from an open audition. The Shinhwa members are all helping to monitor their activities and putting all their support behind them.

After watching Teen Top’s debut performance, the Shinhwa members have apparently expressed their wish for Teen Top to perform Shinhwa’s songs on stage. “They’re the new group that can best pull off Shinhwa’s songs and stage performances.”

After releasing their debut track “Clap” last week, Teen Top have started sales of their single album on 12 July and will be kickstarting their broadcast activities.

[10.07.12] Dongwan’s reviewlog: Eclipse

Jung Woong In is a Korean actor who’s been in lots of movies and dramas, he was recently seen in Queen Seonduk and also stars in the now-airing Coffee House. Awesome actor, but I’m not sure if I see the resemblance between Robert Pattinson and him ROFLMAO…

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

The Twilight Saga: Eclipse
Director: David Slade
Starring: Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson, Taylor Lautner
Released: 2010, US, 124 minutes

I got really bored watching New Moon so I went to watch this without expecting much…
The upgraded action scenes and the childish melodramatic scenes, which I’m now addicted to, couldn’t be more brilliant.
But why!
Why wasn’t it shown in digital format?
If it was shown in digital format maybe I wouldn’t have gotten giddy from looking at the shaky subtitles…
With the precise color saturation of the digital format, just watching each scene alone would be really impressive…=+=
I guess it could be because of the illegal downloads in Korea.

Anyway Edward looks like Jung Woong In,
Jacob doesn’t have T-shirts,
And Bella is greedy.

The battle scene with the alliance of the Wolf Pack and the Vampires is really a classic scene~
Ah~ So New Moon isn’t Twilight~ㅋ
Strongly recommended!

[10.07.08] Kangta: I’m most envious of the fighting Shinhwa

On the 7th July episode of MBC variety show “Golden Fishery – Mureuppak Dosa”, Kangta expressed his envy for the Shinhwa members who always fight among themselves.

Kangta shared details of how H.O.T split up, and expressed his regret about the minor misunderstandings in the past that can no longer be reversed. “One year after we split, all the misunderstandings between the members were resolved with just two sentences. That’s why I’m most envious of the Shinhwa that always fight.”

Kangta said the Shinhwa members “quarrel whenever they get together, but it’s because of these frequent arguments that problems can resolved very quickly, and that’s why they’re still together as a group after 10 years.”

He added, “If the H.O.T members could have resolved problems at any moment without ‘excessive worries’, we could still be together as a group until now.”

When Kang Ho Dong asked him, “Which Shinhwa members argue the most?” Kangta replied, much to the laughter of those present at the studio, “Junjin and Eric”.

[10.07.06] Liveworks notice: 2010 Shin Hyesung Project

New improve site of Hyesung Check it out!

Hi everyone
This is CEO Lee Chang Eon of Liveworks Company
I’d like to send my regards to all the fans as well as welcome everyone to the reopening of Shin Hyesung’s official website
I’ll share briefly the plans for Shin Hyesung in the 2nd half of the year with all the fans who have been waiting for a long time.

ALBUM

1. First Japanese album “Find voice in song SHIN HYE SUNG” – Korean version

The album, which was released in Japan on 28th Feb, will be released in Korea via Loen Entertainment.
With the Korean fans in mind, Vink’s “Gone Today” will be included with Korean lyrics as a bonus track
During the recording of this song for the Japanese album, Hyesung had emphasized that he must re-record this particular song in Korean to sing together with the fans during the concert
The album cover will also be re-designed

2. ‘Best of’ album “THE CYCLE 2005-2009 SHIN HYE SUNG”
At the same time of the release of the Korean version of the Japanese album, a “best of” album will also be released.
The songs included in the album will be slightly different from the one released in Japan
The album photos are also brand new photos taken recently
Taking into consideration the Korean fans who have been waiting for so long, there will be 2 new songs added as well
A upbeat and modern track suitable for the hot summer, penned by Hwang Sung Jae who also wrote Shinhwa’s “Hero”
“If You Love…””, a ballad from Park Chang Hyun, who produced “EX-MIND”, “Same Thought” and “The First Day When We Met” and is currently studying in the US,
These two songs are specially included for the fans.
The song by Hwang Sung Jae is a genre that Hyesung is trying for the first time. During recording Hyesung often talks about concerts, looks like now he likes concerts even more than I do
Hyesung and myself, we’re looking forward to the concert in Korea, packed with all the Korean fans.

3. Official 4th album
The 4th album is slated to be released in October this year
Actually this is what the fans want to know about most
I’m sorry to say, that besides the approximate date of release, there isn’t much I can tell everyone
The rough concept has been decided, the production of the songs has also started, and we’ll go into recording very soon
You can be sure that this album will be filled with Hyesung’s passion for music more than any other album
Please look forward to it.

CONCERT

1. The Korea concert will start after the release of the 4th album in October
We need to emphasize, that to Hyesung, the focus of his music activities is on the concerts.
During the production of the songs we often talk about the concert, and there are already ideas for the concert.
Because Hyesung has his concerts, my role is to turn Hyesung’s ideas into reality.
After the release of the album, there will be more concerts than ever.
The concept of the concert includes more interaction with the fans than ever
To a singer, rather than to have a big-scale concert, he should work harder at holding theatre concerts that focus on the music performances
This year Hyesung too wants to take on the challenge of theatre concerts that focus on the performance of his music.

And he wants to hold a Christmas concert this year too. If that’s not possible a year-end concert will do too.
We’d like to bring a performance of Hyesung’s songs and Christmas carols that will warm people’s hearts, a performance where everyone can feel the happiness of the Christmas atmosphere.

After the concert in Korea, there will be a concert tour in Asia in the first half of 2011, starting with Japan. Hyesung adds on a new region every year for his Asia tour, and there will be two more venues added to the existing lineup for the Asia tour next year.

ASIA PROMOTION FAN MEETING

1. Like what we have announced to everyone before, the “2010 SHIN HYESUNG LIVE MUSIC SHOW IN ASIA” promotional fanmeeting will kick off in Shanghai on 18 July, moving on to Taiwan on 25 July and Bangkok on 7 August. Although it’s a fanmeeting, the focus will remain on his music, and we’ve prepared events that fans in Asia can participate in.

2. In August after the Asia fanmeeting, there will be a fan event for Korean and Japanese fans held in Korea. It’ll most likely be an event where, more than at any time, fans can see Hyesung in his daily life.

DVD

1. The concert DVD for ’2009 SHIN HYESUNG {KEEP LEAVES” TOUR IN SEOUL} held in Seoul in August last year will be released on 24 July in Korea and 25 July in Taiwan.

2. The production of the DVD for {“Find voice in song” LIVE IN TOKYO} held in June last year, has also been completed. The concert footage will be shown on Japan’s DATV in autumn, and released on DVD after that.

We have just shared the plans for Shin Hyesung for the 2nd half of the year.
Although all broadcast appearances will start officially in autumn with the release of the 4th album, before that he will also be participating in OST recordings, promotional activities and joint performances with other artistes
Including the plans mentioned above, we will inform the fans of Shin Hyesung’s official activities via the official website within the shortest time possible.

Shin Hyesung’s official website, which has reopened today, will become a platform for us to interact closely with fans
For any feedback and enquiries regarding Shin Hyesung and Shin Hyesung’s activities
Please let us know via email (lworks@lworks.co.kr) and our official Twitter account (www.twitter.com/liveworkscp)
We will accept humbly all of your encouragement, and even your harsh criticism.

Half of the year has already passed, and summer has started
Growing together with Shin Hyesung, Liveworks Company has already been around for 1 year. There are many things that happened during this one year, and we have thought about a lot things in this one year
For the fans that have trusted and waited for Shin Hyesung and Liveworks Company, we will repay all of you with good music and activities.

We hope on the road that Shin Hyesung and Liveworks Company is moving forward
The fans will always be with us
The weather is turning hot, we hope all the fans will stay healthy and let’s spend this hot summer looking forward to the activities in the autumn.

Thank you

[10.07.05] Dongwan’s memolog: Kalguksu (p.s. added)

Hello@!

Credits: Dongwan’s memolog + Absolut Shinhwa

[10.07.04] Dongwan’s memolog: Kalguksu*

*Kalguksu (literally “knife noodles”) is a Korean noodle dish consisting of handmade, knife-cut wheat flour noodles served in a large bowl with broth and other ingredients.

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

To relieve my hangover I went to the supermarket and bought some noodles and pumpkin.
I got annoyed because I couldn’t decide whether to buy shellfish or anchovies so I bought Chungjungwon ‘matseonsaeng’ instead. (*a type of food seasoning, similar to MSG)
The moment I reached home
I added pumpkin, onions, spring onions and Cheongyang pepper into 700ml of boiling water.
After letting it cook for 5 minutes I added 2 spoonfuls of soy sauce, some salt for seasoning, and matseonsaeng.

No taste…ㅜㅜ

I tried adding some jorim soy sauce.

No taste……..-___________-;

Ah! Garlic!
I put in some garlic.
It was a little better but still seemed somewhat bland so I added more salt.
Too salty! Damn..
To neutralize the salty taste I added eggs.
Then the taste became something I don’t know at all.

But it was too wasteful to not eat it and throw it away.
So I dug out some over-fermented kimchi hidden in the depths of the kimchi refrigerator
And added the kimchi liquid and a bunch of kimchi.
Hmm~ It turned into a kimchi-flavored soup~ㅎㅎㅎ

Anyway you can’t trust matseonsaeng too much.
From next time onwards I’ll have to use miwon. (*another brand of food seasoning)

[10.07.02] Dongwan’s memolog: The worst Shinhwa song lyrics

“For my pride I won’t lose to anyone~”
This is part of the lyrics to “Shooting Star”.
Of course although we thought this line showed the overall meaning of the lyrics and sounded cool,
I regret that we couldn’t change this particular line.

You can’t let your pride take priority.
Though it’s important to know your self-worth and not to yield easily,
If you go overboard, become unreceptive to the outside world and stick to the student mindset
You’ll suffer a lot of damage from society.

You must know how to have the self-respect to discard your pride sometimes.
There’s no need to feel defeated because of this.
As a part of society you just have to be a bit more lenient.

To jump higher you have to crouch to your lowest.
If you try to jump with a stiff body, you won’t jump high and you’ll only feel pain in your legs.

Everyone has to find his own time to build his pride.
But it’s definitely not ‘right from the beginning;.
