Congratulations to DBSK for winning the mutizen award for 3 consecutive weeks now! I’m so glad that they were able to keep their streak but I guess it might have to come to rest next week since I think once an artist wins 3 consecutive mutizen awards on Inkigayo, they might not be eligible to win the following week. I know it sucks but that’s how they do it. BUT there might be a chance for them to win again since Lee Hyori did win 4 mutizens just a few months back, right? So I guess there’s still hope for a 4th mutizen. Let’s just keep our fingers crossed. :D

LOL at SHINee’s Key who was standing behind DBSK. He was ECSTATIC of his sunbaes’ win! Hahaha. Fanboy much? =)

Anyway, I haven’t posted this yet so I’m gonna post it on this entry since it’s somewhat connected to this one. It’s a video of DBSK winning their 2nd consecutive number 1 at M!Countdown just a few days back.

So all in all, the the boys got the number 1 spot on M!Countdown for 2 consecutive weeks and 3 consecutive mutizen awards on Inkigayo. Don’t you think it’s about time for them to win something on Music Bank???  *raises eyebrows* Hmmm…

Why are the boys always making Takoyaki whenever they guest on Channel-A? LOL.

As expected, JaeJoong – DBSK’s master chef – got the most votes from fans. His cooking must really be delicious, eh?  Someday, I would really want to taste any of his recipes especially since I’m quite fond of eating spicy food. I’m sure I’ll fall in love with him more once I get a taste of his cooking. :D

Poor Junsu… he looked so embarrassed because he didn’t even get a single vote. Is his cooking really that INTOLERABLE? Hahaha. But I’m pretty sure Junsu’s fans out there would eat anything made by Junsu, right? Please say yes and save him! LOL.

The members’ imitation of Junsu’s laugh at the end was freakin’ hilarious. They’re bullying poor Junsu again! :D

Here’s an article where Yoochun, Junsu, and Changmin revealed their first kiss after debuting as members of DBSK. I think they talked about this on a TV show  (is it Come to Play?) which will be aired this coming week. It’s actually quite a shocking revelation by the three members, if you ask me…

*Looking at the article again, the source of the news was not included in the template so I have no idea if this is credible enough but I’ll comment on it anyway.*

My INITIAL reaction after reading this one was that I was shocked and somehow disappointed. Questions like, “Whatever happened to them claiming they never had girlfriends after debut whenever they’re asked before?” and “I thought Changmin never kissed a girl before?” immediately crossed my mind. I somehow felt a bit sad because all along, they’ve been lying about these things to their fans although I also never believed it whenever they said that they never had girlfriends after debut because after all, they are human beings who are bound to fall in love at some point.

BUT when I eventually calmed down and my RATIONAL self took over, I realized that I shouldn’t be disappointed of what they did because they have their reasons for not revealing their relationship status after debut. As we all know, their popularity is slowly growing that time and their fan base is also beginning to get larger by the day. We can’t deny the fact that during the early days of their career as DBSK, fans are more concerned with their appearance and are crazier and obsessed than ever. Revealing their relationships that time won’t do them any good since it may be the cause for a lot of fans’ heartbreak and they might have even gone berserk and hostile in dealing with the situation. That scenario will not only be a threat to DBSK’s career but also to their THEN girlfriends because you’ll never know how some stalker-ish and over obsessive fangirls can do.

I’m still a bit sad but I’m no longer disappointed of what the boys did since I understand why they HAD to keep their relationships from their fans. Looking at the situation they were in during that time, I have to say that it was the best thing to do for them to avoid any more complications. Besides, celebrities are really bound to hide some aspects of their life from the public from time to time. It’s not like they’re the only ones who did that. Everything is part of being a celebrity. Moreover, even if DBSK members are public figures, they are NOT REQUIRED to let us know everything about them. They have the right to keep private the things that they think should to be kept private.

I’m just glad that little by little, the boys are opening up these hidden chapters of their lives and letting us, their fans, into the more personal side of their lives. I think they’re starting to reveal these things because their position in the entertainment insudtry is more established now and most importantly because fans are HOPEFULLY more mature in dealing with these kinds of issues. For us fans, occasional “outbursts” and jealousy are ok (we’re fangirls after all) but UNDERSTANDING and RATIONAL thinking should always prevail whenever the boys expose these kinds of secrets.

Looking on the bright side, let’s all be happy because the Dong Bang boys “Want ordinary girls to be their girlfriends” (quoting from the article). It’s something to be glad about, right? It might give us false hope but at least we know that ordinary girls like us does stand a chance to be with them (although we would need something close to a miracle to do that). :D

JaeJoong and Han Hyo Joo’s drama October 26, 2008

I’m finally back after 3 straight days of not posting. I’ve been busy with work and I’ve almost got no energy to do anything once I reach home that’s why I haven’t updated for a few days. Not only did I fail to update this blog for days but I also had to backtrack (actually, I’m still backtracking up to now) 20+ pages at Soompi. I’m actually not late in terms of news but it’s just that I can’t find time to make entries for them anymore. :(

Anyway, I know my next posts may be a couple of days old but I still want to make entries for them so that I can always read them again anytime I want (yes, sometimes I go back to my previous posts and read them again especially if they have some connection to present news) and also because I know some people are also not that up to date on news. Hahaha.

So, let me start with JaeJoong’s new drama. Finally his co-star and leading lady was already announced and she’s none other than Han Hyo Joo, who was the female lead for the Korean drama “Spring Waltz”. Someone posted a Korean article at Soompi and cartoongirl7 was nice enough to translate it. :D

Han Hyo Joo and Kim Jaejoong are confirmed to be co-stars in their upcoming drama.
Jae will act as a messenger between the dead (who are in heaven) and their family and friends (who are still living). His character is very deep and mysterious.
Han Hyo Joo will act as a pure and innocent girl who lost her loved one but cannot forget him. However, after working with Jaejoong at the same job, she slowly falls in love with him.
This episode of the mini-series is 120 minutes long, and the entire plot is a love story.
About the kiss scene, the director says that in the drama “the two (Jae and HHJ) have mutual feelings for each other. During a beautiful sunset, one of them (not specified) says ‘I want to kiss you’, followed by a very touching kiss scene.” They have rehearsed the drama seven times already, and Jaejoong’s acting has improved significantly.
They will start filming next month, which will be adjusted into Jaejoong’s schedule.
The drama is due to be aired May, 2009 on SBS.

JaeJoong’s character in this story, I think, is a very interesting one. His “extraordinary” role as a messenger between the living and the dead is indeed challenging especially for an unexperienced actor like him. I’m really excited to see how JaeJoong will go about this role and if he’ll be able to give justice to it. Regarding the kissing scene, I am SURPRISINGLY  not jealous at all. Well, it’s more like I envy Han Hyo Joo for having such an intimate scene with JaeJoong. I mean, isn’t it every girl’s dream to be kissed by their loved one during sunset? That’s probably one of the most romantic things that can ever happen to a girl. I’m looking forward to seeing this great scene and of course if JaeJoong will be able to make this scene extra romantic.

Here’s another news translation that is in connection to this new drama:

Han Hyo Joo Interview: “JaeJoong Is Still Very Unnatural”

Actress Han Hyo Joo delivered her promise to do her best in the upcoming Japanese-Korean collaboration drama, “Heaven’s Postman.”

On the 22nd, Han Hyo Joo revealed through a phone interview that she liked the script ever since she saw it, and made the decision to accept the role. Also, the director was someone she’d worked with before in “Spring Waltz,” adding to her confidence.

About her role this time, Han Hyo Joo said, “In the past I had roles in history dramas or roles that weren’t compatible with my real age, but this time my role is just right for my age, so I believe I can show everyone my best.” She also expressed her anticipation for “Heaven’s Postman.”

The thing she’s spent the most time on for this drama is acting. She said, “We went through the script for the first time on the 21st, and interaction with the other actors is very important, but because this time we are working with many very famous people, we will focus on the quality of acting.”

Han Hyo Joo, who will be working with TVXQ’s Jaejoong, said,” We met for the first time when we were going through the script, and since we aren’t close regularly, it was kind of unnatural.” She also stated,” Youngwoong Jaejoong attends activities with the identity of a singer, and I believe we can work together well this time to show everyone our best side.”

Also, “Heaven’s Postman” will begin filming in early November. Release is set for May of 2009 in Korea.

I think the the title is a bit misleading as it gives us an idea that Han Hyo Joo thinks that JaeJoong’s acting is unnatural whereas from the way I understand the news, BOTH THEIR ACTING seems unnatural because they are not really close and it’s their first time working with each other. Those are two different things, don’t you think? Anyway, I hope that after rehearsing it for seven times, their acting is more natural now and I hope they’ve gotten close and comfortable with each other (but of course the closeness NEEDS TO HAVE A LIMITATION. lol) so as for them to be able to act good on screen.

I can’t wait for May 2009! :D
