Guest Cecille Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 hi everyone! Its been awhile. Hope all of you are doing well. Hey dam-su! How are you? Thanks for all the updates. Really missing BYJ so much now. Just a short comment about the blind date thing that RSS said, I'm not particularly happy with it. I mean, that should have been just between the two of them, between friends and not for all the world to know. RSS should not have revealed that. Anyway, I was searching from some news from other sites when I came across a blog from a KHJ fan and I read some of the articles she wrote that mentions BYJ. She was a fan of YJ before and was hooked to him too. She also mentioned that some fans of KHJ were fans of BYJ too---sadly, some are now inactive. And I gotta say, YJ may have lost a lot of fans coz of his inactivity. Below are the links for the blog. The blogger is basically accrediting YJ and KeyEast as one of the major reasons for KHJ's success. I like what she said. It's a good read. The Boss Bae Yong Joon Two Men In A Row Secret to Success Strong Ally Bae Yong Joon Just ignore the minor discrepancies with some of her infos about YJ---she is after all a KHJ fan who is just trying to give her readers some info about YJ and make them aware how big YJ is.

Guest Cecille Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 hey willenette, thanks for the updates. "Jang Keun-suk, who stars in my upcoming drama ‘Loverain,’ and is a rising hallyu star in Japan, is in fact very different from Bae Yong-joon. He’s very one-of-a-kind, isn’t afraid of being himself, and doesn’t have that ‘mysterious’ quality which Bae used to charm his fans in Japan. Jang’s fans in Japan are much younger than the ones of Bae." <_< Edited: damsu: this i gotta disagree. mysterious quality to charm his fans? i don't think so. KING BAE YONG JOON values his privacy, his inner peace a lot so he is just protecting it. i don't think he's using it to charm us fans. if our KING wants to charm fans, it would be much easier for him if he will do the opposite. he can expose everything about himself to the public through various medias. i bet he will be really really much more famous than he is now and can gain big time if he does that. but he's not someone who tries to be overly open about himself just to please his fans. I believe that there is a limit to what a public figure should disclose about himself. revealing too much is i think, one way of promoting/selling oneself to grab attention. i wanna qoute what happiebb had written on her old bae blog: "Like how Fumi had described it, he’s like a lone ranger, almost with the characteristics of a lone wolf. His unique style has long been established, and he’s never the sort to use social network to propel himself to stardom or for favours, and he’s never relied on media exposure to increase his popularity. He has achieved stardom from being insistently, persistently and consistently professional and focused. And of course, also because of the warm support from all the fans." (damsu: i believe this is the reason why we bae fans love/adore him so much and not because of his mysterious quality.) and these were our KING's thoughts back then (also extracted from happiebb's blog). and i soooooo agree with him. “We’re unable to tell a person’s true self in such events. So long as there’s a camera around, all actors will unconsciously spread their beautiful feathers and start to act, as if on cue.” “If I too do what everyone does and ride with the tide, then yes, everything’s smooth sailing. But when I do not want to do that, I will tire myself out.” “With the increase in popularity, I feel a little afraid. Honestly, it also brings some amount of pressure. But what really worries me is that I may lose my own, initial thinking.” as for the "Jang’s fans in Japan are much younger than the ones of Bae." statement, it's a false assumption. our KING's fan base ranges from teens to teens-at-heart. i suggest she should investigate first and learn more about us before saying such things. well, i think i said enough. thank you again for updating willinette. hey there again sis dam-su. I know this is old news but I meant to comment on this awhile back when I read it but forgot about it. But I totally agree with everything you said and about the "much younger fan base"---hmm, haven't he been reading the news about Japan's population? there's a huge generation gap among the citizens coz apparently, the Japanese are so busy and well, they are not in a hurry to start a family before. So now, they have more older people than younger ones. That would explain the massive older fan base of YJ in Japan. But of course, it's different in other countries. And besides, back in 2002 when Winter Sonata was released, YJ was already 30 years old! Of course he would appeal more to his age range but it doesn't mean that he isn't popular with the younger ones too. It's really a cheap comparison---someone needs a doze of common sense. Anyway, I can only think of two reasons for that statement made by the director that you highlighted above....1) the true meaning got lost in the translation. he may have meant "that charmed his fans" and not "used to charm his fans". the former being unintentional and the latter being intentional and 2) he might be trying to desperately sell his upcoming drama coz i think the kdrama aren't doing very well these days. if that is the case, then he is undeniably being rude. how can he even say that to someone who had given him much success? i mean, come on!

Geez! I wonder what’s taking him so long to choose a piece to work on. i do hope he will hurry up and choose already. This long wait is making me impatient. He he he. By the way, thanks for sharing these articles about our KING and the Alien boy. he he he. indeed, our KING and Keyeast has done a great job in supporting, managing and mentoring the lad and helping him to achieve what he is today. Keyeast opened many doors of opportunity for the Alien Boy. and with our KING behind him further propelled him to stardom. im very happy that a KHJ fan recognizes Keyeast and our KING as the foundation of KHJ’s success. 2 thumbs up for this blogger. regarding RSS's statement about our KING asking for a blind date, i agree that it's not proper to reveal such private things to the public. but i guess he must have slipped. he he he. he must have been very excited about getting his blind date that he accidentally brought out the topic about our KING requesting for one. sometimes, when we're overly excited with something, we tend to reveal things that we shouldn't reveal. he he he.

It’s so nice to see you post here again. waaaahh…. So you have both the Korean and English versions of his Beauty of Korea book. That’s amazing. He he he. Anyway, I do agree with you that our KING is really a good writer. No wonder many thought that he hired a ghost writer for his book. Who would have thought that an actor would write that well. Ahhh… our KING never ceased to amaze me. He’s full of surprises. he always comes to us in new ways. And I think that’s one factor that makes him very interesting and admirable.

Guest iluvugudbye Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 nothing much in Bae world today but just wanna share this article written by the same blogger who wrote the articles about our KING and the alien boy shared by sis Cecille. will only post the ones related to our KING. thanks again to the blogger lazerkim for sharing a wonderful article. Kim Hyun Joong… [article] UNITE in ONE source: LazerKim All about Kim Hyun Joong written by: LazerKim (skipped, unrelated) Every time Hyun Joong receives an award, there were at least ten important individuals and groups that he always mentioned. Bae Yong Joong (damsu: dear it's bae yong joon not bae yong joong ), KeyEast, Steven Lee, Lyle Beniga, Artmatics, Henecia, KHJPerfect, Triple S, fans and Noona. Hyun Joong never failed to thank these people whom he worked with. They said, when you received blessings, you have to give it back or turn on to the two magic words “Thank You” so that more blessings will come to you. I acknowledge these people and write about them as the closest people connected with Hyun Joong. Somebody said all credits should be given to Hyun Joong and that KeyEast should be thankful to Hyun Joong.(damsu: oh well, this someone must be a bias KHJ fan. but whoever this person is doesn't know what he/she's talking about. this person must have said this because KHJ is bringing a lot to the agency. but here's my 2 cents for this bias KHJ fan, it was Keyeast who opened many doors of opportunity for the Alien boy.without keyeast's help/support, i doubt if the Alien boy would have made it this far in his career. ) I’ll leave that matter for a while. As for me I just echoed what Hyun Joong keep mentioning every time he receives the award. I don’t think Hyun Joong is selfish, in fact he’s giving those trophies to his fans for working hard at the internet during the time voting polls were being conducted. I think everyone shared the hard work with him, and that includes the people we do not see who’s working behind Hyun Joong. How can Hyun joong sing if he doesn’t have a song to sing, he needs a music composer. How can he dance if he doesn’t have a dance routine, he needs a choreographer. How can he perform on stage without costume, he needs s stylist designer. How can he perform without a stage and venue, he needs a sponsor. All of these were being provided by KeyEast. In this business there’s no such thing as “I owe you” kind a thing. Both Hyun Joong and KeyEast work hand in hand and both benefited from their hard work. As an artist Hyun Joong knows this very well. I have written several articles regarding KeyEast, what I have written is reality in terms of business. In showbiz it’s always been the production staffs who are given the last appreciation, that’s why I kept mentioning them in my previous articles. (damsu: true. without the help of those people behind him, the alien boy wouldn't have done it. and im very happy that this lad knows how to acknowledge those people who had helped him achieve his dreams.) If there are people behind Hyun Joong, there are also people in front of him, his inspiration and that is you, KHJ fans. In my recent article Fan Network, you have been identified and recognize your role during the time Hyun Joong needed numbers. But I failed to mention a group of individuals who are silently supporting Hyun Joong. I found out that almost half of the Japanese fans who were there at the concert were Bae Yong Joon fans. I know that many if not all have been supporting Hyun Joong. I have a friend who is inactive fan who belongs to BYJ fan club and they support Hyun Joong. For me it’s a good news. In reality what Hyun Joong needs is numbers. I know many out there from BYJ fans are silently supporting Hyun Joong. Let’s embrace them and keep up the strength, the more the merrier. Wouldn’t that be wonderful? In one interview with Hyun Joong, he mentioned that it’s his dream to perform at Tokyo Dome. Dream came true he was able to do so with BYJ when Hyun Joong sang at smile project, BYJ’s charity fond raising. And after he performed, Hyun Joong mentioned again that he dream to come back to Tokyo Dome to perform a concert. BYJ sets history as he was able to gather his fans at Tokyo Dome full packed. (damsu: he always does, dear. ) Wouldn’t it be wonderful to combine both fans and gather them at Tokyo Dome? That must be exciting!! I deliberately wrote several articles about Hyun Joong’s connection with his boss Bae Yong Joon, with hopes I would be able to reach out for them and draw attention. At the same time I was hoping Hyun Joong would be able to fill up the gap during this period of Bae Yong Joon’s absence. (damsu: can the Alien boy fill up the gap while our KING is in hibernation? guys, what do you think? ) Actually he’s just around staying behind the scene while Hyun Joong was on exposure. For those who have not read the said articles, Two Men in Row, The Boss, Strong Ally BYJ, you may check it out, it’s just around the internet. (skipped, unrelated) --------------------------------------- i've also added my 2 cents on some parts of the article. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carling5 Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 I swear, BYJ gets more handsome and sexy with each passing day! I'm really getting anxious to see him in a movie or drama. I think it would be awesome if he did a comedy or played a bad-richard simmons villain. I don't know about you guys, but I would love to see BYJ do something completely unexpected and against type (i.e. Untold Scandal). It's been so long since his last starring role that I hope he throws caution to the wind and goes for it. It would be amazing to see BYJ come back in memorable role that is worthy of his great acting ability. I LOVE THIS MAN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiefer-taiho Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 well... I need to be sure if yong joon really.. but really come back to the small screen.. with drama or movie...(really I prefer in drama because we can see him more long time!!!!!) I miss him sooooooo much ohhhhh... but he hasn´t specify anything yet... just say I will be back.. but.. wheeeeeeen? is a torture this wait!!!!....is a long wait... he is so busy with other things... but ohh my gosh.. is almost 5 years nouuuuuuu hehehee. yong-joon come back now! please... ahhhhh well I can say with that notice with blind date.... I guess is not convenient... well I think is very bad to force the things... is interesting the fact inside... I mean... if he was a common person but isn´t it.... in that world the serious relationship is so dificult and complicated because he is a public figure.. and is so sad and understand that maybe yong joon feel lonely... but blind date with a particular person like yong joon... I´m fear for the fox woman climbers ... (strange term) but is the true.. because all that women will want to approach him but for his money and all empire that he has gained and not for yong joon himself... and I think.. yong joon should wait, I know the perfect person for him appear soon, he shouldn´t force the situation... is difficult and we have seen how end when the relationship hurry up .... is not bad.. but personally I prefer that yong joon happens naturally without force or try to find someone for that form... I know that yong joon could find the person ..... the special person just for him and I will pray for that yong joon.. we don´t like your heart to pieces for choosing wrong and hurry yong joon be patience.... whatever it happens everything will be fine I know!!!!!
