DBSK held their 3rd Asia Tour – Mirotic Concert in Beijing yesterday and here’s a news on how successful the concert was last night:
TVXQ: An Explosion Of Cheers From 40,000 Audiences
TVXQ’s “Mirotic” Tour arrived in Beijing, receiving a standing ovation from 40,000 Chinese audiences.Besides the Seoul, Nanjing, and Bangkok concerts — on 11th July, at 7.30pm, “TVXQ The 3rd Asia Tour Concert Mirotic In Beijing” was held the Beijing Workers’ Stadium, garnering explosive cheers from an audience of 40,000 people.
A thing to note is that the large-scale Beijing Workers’ Stadium is used only by mega-stars like Andy Lau and Jacky Zhang for their solo concerts.
On the day of the concert, for the audience’s safety, 3,200 Chinese policemen were deployed, once again proving that TVXQ is the top group in Asia.
TVXQ started the concert with “Hey!”, “Are You A Good Girl” and “Rising Sun”. Besides performing the songs in their 4th album, they also included hit songs like “Hug” and “Balloon”, as well as the members’ solo performances, performing a total of 26 songs. Unable to escape from TVXQ’s charm, MIROTIC has captured the attention of fans from around the world.
Not only did the Chinese fans use red light sticks for TVXQ, they also prepared different coloured light sticks for each and every members’ solo performance, creating eye-catching images.
Throughout the concert, the audience stood in their seats dancing along with TVXQ, and reacting enthusiastically, letting one fully experience the charm of cheering together with the crowd.
After the performance, TVXQ expressed their thoughts on the concert, “Coming back after a year to have a concert in Beijing, we’re really thankful to keep receiving such warm cheers. Once again, we’re able to feel the love from the Chinese fans, and we really treasure the time we have spent together.”

DO NOT REMOVE/ADD ON ANY CREDITS
Our dear boys are really big in all of Asia. I’m so proud of them because not a lot of artists can reach the same heights as they have reached so far. They’re so successful now and are recogized all over Asia and other parts of the world as well. Only artists as big as them could manage to attract that many fans in one concert. I won’t be surprised if one day they would be performing at a venue that can accomodate 100K people (if ever such venue exists) and still manage to have it fully packed. Hahaha.
I will be posting the pictures from their Mirotic concert in Beijing some other day because I’m still in the process of collecting and organizing the pictures before I finally upload a zip folder and share a download link. If you still haven’t noticed, I’m not the type who post stuff by parts (or in separate entries). I only do that if I really have to. As much as possible I want to share it all in one go. So I hope you guys can wait for the pics and the DL link for just a few more days. I have with me about 200+ pics already but I’m still waiting for more uploads from dnbn, baidu, and other sites.
P.S. Are there any Filipinos out there (specifically those coming from Manila or Pampanga maybe?) who will be watching the Mirotic concert in Shanghai this coming October? I really want to go but I don’t have anyone to go with. I’m still not sure if my parents would allow me since my mom found out about the A(H1N1) case that happened in their Mirotic concert in Bangkok but I still want to try my luck and ask permission again (even though by the looks of it I will really have a hard time convincing them). I want to make sure I can go with someone before I actually ask them to allow me to attend the concert. And anyone knows how to purchase concert tickets? I HAD the url of the website where the tickets are being sold online bookmarked but I somehow lost it. I think it might have been accidentally deleted when I was deleting some of the pages on my bookmark list. T_T
DBSK on Fujin Kouron magazine interview July 12, 2009

I’ve read thsi interview about a week or two already but I didn’t post it because the translation I read was still quite unclear. I finally found a clearer translation so I’m posting it here now. The boys’ answers are all great but I’d have to sa that Yunho’s answer is the most touching one. I really love what he said about the group and the kind of relationship/bond the have. I’m sure you’ll love this interview, too.
Fujin Kouron Magazine
The five of us are fated together
Jaejoong: Wanting to let more people know about us
After debuting in Japan, we’re entering our fourth year now. As we got used to speaking in Japanese, working gets more comfortable now. Being bullied by the comedian on the variety shows has become like nothing now. (laughs) It makes me feel that it’s a chance to let people get to know us better, thus every performance / shows we attend makes me happy.
We started our arena tour in May, although during the rehearsal, Junsu got hurt and we had quite some troubles, it still makes me feel happy that the number of people who are attending our concert had increased as compared to last year. Especially on the increasing number of male fans, this makes one’s heart race (and happy). THSK songs, from heart-racing dancing ones to ballads, to even a popular anime (“ONE PIECE”) theme song, our range of singing genres had really grown big. And because of this, there are fans starting from babies to people in the older generation coming towards to see our performance. Compared to Korea, the age range in Japan is wider.
But to tell you the truth, even now, I don’t dare to say that we’re completely accepted in Japan. Every time we stand on the concert stage, I would feel so touched, making me think that “There are so many people coming to hear us sing.” However, there are still lots of people who don’t know about us. These thoughts make me want to do to my very best.
Changmin: Although language and culture is different
During my third year in middle school, I was scouted right at my school, giving me the chance to enter the entertainment industry. Although I haven’t given much thought about the entertainment industry before, I gradually had the feeling that “If I want to become an artist, I have to work hard.” kind of thoughts after passing the audition and starting with training.
When I decided to enter the industry, my parents were opposed to the idea. But after repeatedly trying to convincing them, I finally got their approval. “Okay then. Do whatever you would like to do.” And until now, my family is still very supportive of me being a part of THSK, and me doing my best.
With working overseas, language is the most important part, thus I started off with watching some Japanese dramas and movies to start learning Japanese. One of the movies left a really good impression on me.
Both Japan’s and Korea’s cultures and personalities are different. When debuting in Japan, not only was the style / genre of music was different as compared to Korea, I have to repeatedly remind myself that I have to take note of the different lifestyle, as well. Currently, we’re always flying back and forth from Japan and Korea. Basically, there are no breaks at all. But if we were given one, I wish to go to a forest or hill where no one is and surround myself with nature and completely relax myself there.
Junsu: Wants to perform a song that would last in everyone’s hearts
In Japan, we’re known as THSK, in Korea, we’re known as DBSK. They’re the same, but at the same time, they’re also different. But as time goes by while performing, it feels that these two are getting closer and closer as one.
When we had just debuted in Japan, we tried not to remember our popularity in Korea, since we were nobodies in Japan, starting from zero. To tell you the truth, it was very confusing at the beginning. Even the way the company works is different. For example, in Korea, we’ll just release an album every year, but on that album itself, the promotion would last only a few months. But in Japan, we would be releasing lots of things, starting from the pre-release of a single to actually performing it. It’s really a lot of work (busy). It would be the same for concerts. In Korea, normally when we’re singing, the fans would be singing loudly with us as well, but in Japan, they would be there, listening to it quietly. When we first started performing, we experienced the silence and thought that they couldn’t understand what we were singing and had quite a shock. However, now we understand it’s a so-called cultural difference. But when everyone gets high, no matter which country it is, it’s the same, so it’s okay. (laughs) My dream is to sing those songs that despite how time goes by, it would always stay in one’s heart. That could be called as the happiest dream that every singer would want.
Yoochun: Songs are filled with lots of secrets that make one feel its charm
Ever since I was little, I loved the sound of the piano and started learning by myself. After work, sitting behind the piano would make me feel relaxed and naturally, there would be tunes forming in my mind.
I base it on my own experiences when composing the tune and lyrics. However, because the people around me are requesting, I felt the slight pressure of “wanting to write a good song.” (laughs)While composing, I frequently put in my past experiences as the material to write. Even writing heart-breaking ballad songs is the same. Of course, I wouldn’t say that the whole song consists fully of my own experience; there’s also my imagination mixed in it, so it’s a partially real experience, partially just imagination.
I’m always listening to instrumental music or OST soundtracks. Rather than expressing and writing down lyrics directly, I like to make the others think, “What’s this composer trying to say?” This makes one filled with lots of imagination (and gets mysterious feelings from the music). I often listen to the soundtrack of [静冷と情熱のあいだ].
Yunho: Happiness is multiplied by five, while sorrows are just 1/5
My impressions on the members… Junsu has the ability to make one feel happy. Changmin, despite being the youngest, holds the key when making a decision; a very calm boy indeed.
Yoochun, although he’s a romanticists, Jaejoong would be the one to filled in Yoochun’s flaw as a realistic, therefore it’s a rather best balance. ….actually, i just noticed this yesterday. And your question came in the right time, fitting into my answer! (laughs)In the past, I would think, “Because I’m the leader, I have to always take care of everyone.” But now, everyone has grown mature and more stabilized. There’s nothing more for me to say. And recently, I’m always being reminded by Changmin, “Yunho! Do it properly!” asking me to pay attention. (laughs) It’s not enforcing the idea of who’s the leader or anything. Everyone’s just there to correct the mistakes the others have. That’s what I think; it’s called teamwork.
The five of us working together could be consider as fate. Five different people feeling as one, happiness multiplied by five, sorrow is just 1/5. This is called happiness. To me, TVXQ is just like a family, a home. No matter how far we’re separated, we’ll come back together one day. TVXQ is just such an important place for us.

The boys are also featured on Arena 37′C magazine August issue. Their pics from this mag are much better than the ones from Pati-Pati. They look so playful, relaxed, and innocent. The pics I love the most are that of Changmin where his eyes are closed and he seemed like he’s praying and the pics of Junsu where he was holding a cherry and playing the Rubik’s cube. But all the pictures are worth looking at and keeping! LOL.

Okay, I know it took me so long to upload these pictures and for that I apologize. Finally, I was able to sort them out and arrange them accordingly. I’m kinda OC so I want everything as organize as possible. I think my Tokyo Dome folder is still not that organize but it’s bearable. LOL. I’m not gonna post all the pictures here since there are a lot of them (300+) and posting them might just eat up all the remaining space I have here at WordPress for uploadig pictures. Sorry. =( BUT I have uploaded the zip folder that contains all the Tokyo Dome pictures so you guys could just download it. I hope that’s fine with you guys.
I’ll just post pictures of the Red Ocean, the Blue sea, and of course our dear DBSK here. See the download link below.

The boys are featured on Pati-Pati magazine (for the nth time now) for the August issue. Below are the scans from the magazine as well as the translated interviews of each member. I’m not a fan of this set of pictures except for the individual pictures where JaeJoong was looking down and Junsu was facing sideways. The pictures are too “dark” for my liking plus the boys’ expressions are too serious, in my opinion.

What Kind of Family Do You Want?
JUNSU
- When you have children in the future, how JUNSU will raise them?
When my children turn 3, I want to direct them to concentrate on something so that it can stretch their talents and abilities from the very young.
- Educate their talent.
Yes. Strictly!
- So, what kind of training that will be up for the children?
I have always been into soccer when I grow up. So it would be nice if my child is a boy, that he turns to be a soccer player. But if my son is not good in soccer, then it’s impossible to make him as soccer player, right?
- That would be forcing the child.
Yes. That’s why I don’t want to force my child to do anything. I want to respect my child’s opinion. There are things that suit someone that doesnt suit the others.
- So you want to decide what kind of interest that suits the children from the very soon. JUNSU, seem that you will raise them with independence.
Yes. I want to be friends with them, more than only child and parent relationship.
- By the way, which one you prefer to have, son or daughter?
2 boys and 1 girl will be nice.
- Is there a preferred order?
First a boy, then a boy again. And a girl in the end. Frankly, I’ve been thinking about this since I’m in junior high.- Since that early!?
I like to plan everything or think of my future. But I have to be an adult first, more than anything (laughs).
YUCHON
- What is Yoochun’s ideal family?
I want a lovely wife and 2 daughters.
- All females?
Ah, but I think I want boys too~
- Then, 2 daughters and 1 son?
No, I don’t want 3.
- Why?
I want less children, small in number. If it’s possible, one is enough.
- Oh really? If that’s so, then you can give all your love to just one child?
That’s one the reason. But I also can give more attention to my wife.
- So, you want to always be lovers with your wife, even after you get married?
Yes! It would be nice to be in romance with my wife everyday and always be happy together.
- Your wife will be a happy person. Just by imagining it, I can figure a sweet scene already
If there are a lot of kids, time to have romance with your wife will be interrupted, isnt that so?
- True.
That’s why I don’t want many kids.
- I see~. But Yoochun, you have the image that you would completely spoil your kids.
Yes. There’s nothing wrong with that (laugh). But if my child does something bad, I will be very mad.
- I think it will be very scary when a nice Yoochun gets mad.
But technically, I will give my child freedom. Whether it’s music or sports, I want to let them do what they want.
YUNHO
- YUNHO’s ideal family structure?
I want a wife with 2 daughters and 1 son. It will looks nice.
- The order, by the way?
The order I want is a boy, a boy, and a girl.
The boys’ age gap can be close, while the girl is about 4-5 years from her brothers. That’s the ideal.
- What kind of father YUNHO be? To see that you’re so well taking care others, seems that you’ll be so doting father. Especially to the daughter.
Being lovely is a certain. I think I cant help it (laughs).
- However, you dont have the image that you’ll spoil them?
Sometime I will spoil them. But for manners and etiquette I will strictly teach them, I dont want them to trouble other people.
- Seems that your kids will resemble YUNHO and will be mature. By the way, what do you want your kids to become?
Oh, anything! I want them to be whatever they want to be.
- So you’ll respect your children’s decision?
I’m allowed to do what I want to do right now. I’m so respect my parents for that. That’s why I want to support whatever my children want to do. I’ll take care anything from behind.
- You seem to be a nice and understanding father.
Yet still I’m such a force guy right now, it’s impossible to do that for now.
- Is that so?
I’m lacking in experience, so to build a nice family and be a great person to support my child, I have to work hard, and learn in many experiences.
CHANGMIN
- How many kids do you want it the future?
I want 2 sons
- Daughter?
It’s unnecessary
- Why?
Daughter will go and get married, right? When that happens, I think I cant stand the loneliness
- You have even already imagined this thing!
If I’m going to experience such pain, it would be better for me not to have any daughter to begin.
- You sound like a father who’s going to give up his daughter already (laughs)
I have ever heard a story like that. I realize it’s tough to be a father of daughter. As for me, I think it would best to love the wife of my son as a daughter, when he gets married.
- But what if your son takes time to get married?
It’s really not a problem.
- Then, how do you want to raise your son?
I want him to be like me (laughs).
- Oo, become an artist?
No, I never thought specifically like that. If my son wants to be an artist, I will support him. It’s really not a problem.
- If the other members are in the same age, and they’re all boys, will you think they will form TOHOSHINKI Junior?
No, I’ll stop that. To think how JUNSU’s son would be… to have the large freedom in him. My son won’t stand him. I will definitely refuse in advance (laughs).
JEJUNG
- JEJUNG, how many children do you want in the future?
For how many, I think it depends on the health of my wife. But I want a lot of them.
- That’s like JEJUNG’s own family. Because there are many people, everyday feels so fun?
It’s really fun. The fight might be a lot as well, but since there are many members in the family, when there something happens, we can always rely to each other, we unite. It’s amazing when a family ties together like that.
- Certainly encouraging.
Yet to feed (T/N: take care) such large group of people, I need to work hard. I dont want it to become burden of my wife. If the health condition is not too good, three children only will still make a good fit.
- Mixed boys and girls?
Two girls as elders and the youngest one is a boy.
- Why?
It says the youngest boy, will be goodlooking.
- It’s so JEJUNG!
No, no (laughs)
- But if the boy turns to be someone like you, he surely be a handsome guy!
No no (laughs). Not to be someone like me is still good too. But if he looks like my wife, then it will be great.
- So your wife has to be someone who is beautiful.
The more important thing is not the look, but the beauty of her heart.
- What will you say if your kids want to be like their Dad?
If my children seriously want to sing, then I wont against them. But I won’t force them to be. My priority is I want to support them more than anything else.

Awww, I think all of them will be a good family man in the future. I love this interview so much!
Junsu wants three kids – two boys and one girl. I guess he wants two soccer players and one cheerleader, eh? LOL. But seriously, I think Junsu’s plan of training his kids and letting them be exposed on something is a good thing. It’s great to let children become good or specialize on something while at an early age so that they could develop the passion for that something as they grow up. Much like how Junsu developed a passion for music and soccer.
LOL at Yoochun’s indecisiveness.
He wants one child but can’t decide if he wants a boy or a girl. In my opinion, a girl will be more appropriate for Yoochun. I don’t know. I just think he’ll really spoil his daughter so much and will be very protective of her. It’s also funny but sweet how he only wants one child because he wants to have more time with his wife. This only goes to show that Yoochun really loves girls (I mean it in a nice way). Hahaha.
Yunho finally realized that it would be too burdensome for his wife to have 20+ kids, eh? I’ve read an interview before were Yunho mentioned that he wants to have 20+ kids. I was pretty sorry for his future wife when I read that. Fortunately, he finally came to his senses and settled for just three kids. LOL. I think Yunho’s children will be disciplined persons just like their father. I’ve always admired how well Yunho’s upbringing was and it would be good that he wants to do the same for his children.
Changmin’s answer really surprised me but I think it’s very true. One of the hardest things for a father is to let go of his daughter that’s why fathers are always so protective of their daughters more than their sons. Daughters (especially for only child or daughters like me) always get extra special care from parents because girls are always seen as more “fragile” than boys. I understand why Changmin doesn’t want a daughter but it really breaks my heart to think that maybe he really wants a daughter but would rather not have one because he doesn’t want to feel the pain of giving her to someone else once she decides to get married. But on a lighter note, his answer to the last question really craked me up. He REALLY NEEDS to bully Junsu in anyway, eh? LOL.
JaeJoong is just one heck of a sweet guy. I love how he always consider his wife’s well-being before anything else. I think it’s really so understanding of him to do that. Other guys would just do what they want without thinking of their other half. This actually one of the reasons why I love JaeJoong so much. He’s so selfless and caring of other people, especially his loved ones. It would be a great blessing to be his wife, don’t you think?
