Sams-san Reported About DBSK Story From Japan's Live Tour

Il kyung Entertainment september (日経エンタティンメント)
talking about each Dong Bang ShinKi member’s dancing for Secret code Tour

Yunho : Yunho has become more skilled. It is because of his physical strength , he turns his dance to be such large movement. .
「 I danced until my bone broke today」he always said that.
(This word should be put in his profile : Among member, he is a uniquely dancer leader. Sam is also fascinated by his ability when he saw for the first time.
「At encore 『The way U are』, he freely ran here and there. Whatever he dances even relaxing ,its kind of like bursting out…」

Jaejoong: There were the steps that he couldn’t do, but until now he conquers all of them.
For this concert, the step for refrain part of「Survivor」was one of them.

Changmin : Changmin doesn’t have any particular habit, he just warms up, get muscle straightens and then dances.
When practicing , he always does it seriously though.
He is getting better this time as well, I hope to see him again.

Yoochun : Compare to other members in Dong Bang ShinKi, he really has no physical strength. Whenever it reaches the end part, he always totters. I call it ‘horsepower’ type.
The first day at Dome, his condition was not good. I thought to myself that he was going to collapse
He was strong!(^^)

Junsu : Junsu is so powerful, He can regain his power quite well. For this pass 1 year, I think he has grown with the most powerful dance.

These days, due to the contract conflict that DBSK is having with their Korean management company, a lot of fans are worried that it might affect their concert "The 3rd Asia Tour Mirotic in Shanghai" that will be held on 2 October at the Shanghai Hongkou Soccer Stadium. Yesterday, the organisers revealed that SM Entertainment and the 5 members of DBSK have already signed the contract for the concert, and thus it will not be affected by any external factors.

Ever since the 3 members of DBSK have gone to the courts about their contracts, they have still steadfastly maintained that they do not want DBSK to disband. DBSK's fans from many countries have also used many ways to let their voices be heard, and have been showing their support as always.

The organisers for "The 3rd Asia Tour Mirotic in Shanghai", have also received confirmation from the 5 members of DBSK recently, and they will fulfill their promise to the fans, and give their best performances.

YUNHO AND ARA'S ACTUAL BOND AT THE ROMANTIC DATE SCENE AT FOUNTAIN SQUARE CAPTURED

While filming a romantic date scene for his new drama, a possible romantic bond between DBSK's U-Know Yunho and his adversary Ara has been spotted.

MBC new drama series “Heading to The Ground” captured the figures of Yunho and Ara enjoying a romantic date at Central Plaza’s fountain.

“Heading to The Ground” (directed by Park Sung-soo, script written by Kim Solji, Kim Yeh-ri) shot the drinking scene where the talented agent Kang Hae-bin (played by Go Ara) was somehow feeling disappointed thus drank a lot of alcohol and Cha Bong Gun (played by Jung Yunho) who has weakness in smooth talking failed in persuading his agent not to drink too much.

When the drunk Ara fell asleep and comfortably leaned on Yunho’s shoulders, Yunho as Bong-gun gave a stiff expression that raised a lot of laugh. Not long time ago, TVXQ’s U-Know Yunho who acted as Cha Bong-gun also presented fantastic acting as if he’s not a rookie actor in another scene with Ara when he pulled a snack stall in the middle of rain and showed a delicate expression.



In meantime, this shooting scene for once showing Yunho and Ara for a short period of time stopped chattering and forget about their ordinary quarreling, revealed the intimate figures of the two which brought jealousy feelings among the staffs. Having small faces, tall body, and overall beautiful figure, Hae-bin and Bong-gun showed off extraordinary intimate friendship between them in a scene that is meant to create sparkling mood among audiences.

This is Just OUT. Let's just say I wasn't surprised!



CREBEAU's cosmetic company WISHOP PLUS(?) has sent in the lawsuit against SM Entertainment on august 4th. SM Entertainment is using crebeau's cosmetic company name as an excuse/blame for the recent contract issue with the three DBSK members, Jaejoong, Yoochun and Junsu. CreBeau is saying that SM Entertainment falsely put blame on the cosmetic shop being opened by the 3 members and this had damaged the company's image and also loss in profit. Since Crebeau had nothing to do with DBSK's contract/SM Entertainment issue they will be suing SM.ent for using their name.

shared by: TCS@blogspot

REASONS FOR DELATION FOR FILMING OF PARADISE MEADOW.

The reason for the delaying of the first filming for the drama is only to complete it even more perfectly.

A member of the group TVXQ, Choikang Changmin, is going through an acting course which is why the shooting of the drama "Paradise Pasture" is being delayed. Although recently, TVXQ's company and 3 members of the group is involved in a lawsuit, but during that period, they emphasized that "the lawsuit and an a member's individual activities will not stop" and they have been preparing for other activities.

Recently, after ending their performance in Japan, Choikang Changmin returned to Korea. He received a very strict one-to-one acting course on days where he doesn't have to perform. Despite his busy schedule of travelling from Japan and Korea, he has not stop practicing his script and so long as there is time after the activity ends, he will not let go of it.

Choikang Changmin recently expressed that "there has been a series of things happening recently and I, indeed, feel a very huge responsibility. I only want to perform well in this acting challenge, that seems to be like a dream." and "When we are travelling to and fro from Japan and Korea, so long as there is free time, I will accept advises on acting. To me, acting is a new field and I am also looking forward to it and will have ample preparation."

Samhwa Networks and SM Entertainment collaborated for the filming of "Paradise Pastrues" and is planned to be released this year. In this light story and beautiful music to accompany the matured theme drama, Choikang Changmin will show everyone an unexpected and innocent but romantic acting. The first day of filming will be in early next month.

SM x DBSK Lawsuit: “Will The Evidences Application be Accepted?”



As had been reported, besides the provisional disposition to terminate exclusive contract effect, 3 members of DBSK namely Jaejoong, Yoochun, and Junsu also submitted Preservation of Evidence request so that they could calculate the exact amount of their income.


However, in the first hearing held on last August 21st, SM responded regarding the Preservation of Evidence request, “This immediate appeal for Preservation of Evidence can’t be executed.” SM expressed disapproval regarding the submission request. The company explained that DBSK income receipts along with other documents and materials needed for this settlement is company’s trade secret. And if they’re to be exposed to the media, it can lead to fatal effect.


Regarding the problem, the court described an “in camera” system to invalidate SM’s claim of a fatal risk. The “in camera” system is the process in which the viewers of the evidences are to selected/limited number of people only. Because of this, DBSK’s payment issue can be resolved and the current conflict can be raised.

SM officials therefore approved the DBSK’s ‘Preservation of Evidences application’ and the submission deadline is tomorrow, August 26th.

The court judgment whether SM’s application is received as valid evidences or not is to be determined on Friday, August 28th.

Meanwhile, on the same day (August 28th), DBSK fanclub Cassiopeia is showing support to their idol by submitting petition which is signed by approximately 121,073 people at 1:30 p.m to National Human Rights Commission. “DBSK members have been victims of serious human rights violation and now are seeking way to escape from it. We asked the help from National Human Rights Commission to give human rights protection for DBSK members through their court hearing.”

On last August 20th, Cassiopeia had already submitted their petition which was already signed on-line by 120,000 people from August 12th to 18th (six days) to Seoul Central District Court to support the terminate of unfair contract.

It’s Tohoshinki!
Yesterday Tohoshinki’s Jejung was coming to hang out together!


Jejung and I had become friends since two years ago, but just yesterday we actually talked a lot about songs and had a pleasant time at the karaoke!

Yuchon was there too!

This person who is also known as Micky is my good fellow as well!
It’s hard for each of us to get such free time like this, therefore (when we have it) we’d like to play a lot!

A DANCER BLOGS ABOUT DBSK's PERFORMANCE in A-NATION

A-nation 09 TOKYO
I finished my first day! Wow, we’re already in Tokyo! (laugh)
I haven’t blogged in a while!
There was something that really surprised me today.
There was a time on stage when I felt really calm, and I started thinking, “Hey, I was watching ‘Doushite~’ from backstage last year.” The lights were really beautiful.
This year,
Before Tohoshinki was going to sing, there were blue lights.
Once a video of them showed up, red lights started glowing all across the audience.
Yes, it was the fans' red lights!!
And when the five of them were walking towards the huge ocean of fire (omg, it’s a RED OCEAN xD), I started getting really excited and moved.
It was amazing. Every single person’s strength put together can something so huge.

I really want to show all of you!
Blue lights,
Red lights,
What I saw was purple, because the colors were mixed!!!!!
And then we started dancing “Purple Line”.
I felt like it had been a while since I had been so into a dance, and I had tons of fun!

FILMING HEADING TO THE GROUND, U-KNOW YUNHO FROM TVXQ SHOWS HIS PASSION FOR HIS ACTING, BAREFOOT
Jung Yunho plays Cha Bong-goon, a man who has amazing shooting skills but suffers because of his rash personality.


Pulling a snack stall barefoot!


Jung Yunho, who plays Cha Bong-goon in MBC's new Wednesday-Thursday drama 'Heading to the Ground' (Script by Kim Solji, Kim Yaeri, Directed by Park Sungsoo), was seen pulling a snack stall in the rain barefoot and has been gaining a lot of attention for this.

He has already garnered a lot of attention for being cast in his first drama as TVXQ's U-Know Yunho, but then gained more attention from the media when U-Know Yuno decided to work under his real name, Jung Yunho, for the drama.

In the still cut that was revealed, there are no traces of the U-Know Yunho everyone is used to with his charismatic stage presence. The sight of him completely drenched in rain makes him look exactly like a pitiful snack stall owner. In 'Heading to the Ground', Jung Yunho plays Cha Bong-goon, a youth with the spirit of a wild horse who has amazing shooting skills but suffers because of his rash personality, and holds onto life like a weed while overcoming near-death experiences multiple times. Because of this, Bong-goon walks the path of hardships and those everything from working part-time at a fried chicken store to running his own chicken skewer snack stall. He also give Haebin (Ara) his sneakers when her heel on her shoe breaks resulting in him running through the rain barefoot.

Jung Yunho, who has already worn a thick chicken suit in the middle of summer, has also had to pull a snack stall barefoot while evading the police. Even though the shooting was physically demanding, he never lost his smile and made everyone laugh on set. Although his feet were swollen from the continuous soccer practice he went through for the past couple of days, he had to run on the road barefoot and he did not complain about it. It seems as though this suffering of his feet is going to continue for a while.

PD Park Sungsoo who is directing this drama said, "If it weren't for the fans who come to visit him, I wouldn't have guessed that this was TVXQ's U-Know Yunho. I didn't know he'd work this hard," and praised Jung Yunho very highly.

TVXQ SPECIAL ALBUM ALWAY KEEP THE FAITH REVIEW


Translation under cut ^_^

TVXQ Special Album 「Always keep the faith」Released!

"The five members of TVXQ return for the first time after overcoming the hardships they faced!
They started off with a bang with a special album full of songs composed by the members themselves.
This album can be reveiwed as an album full of love for their fans who have believed in and waited for them."
Reviewer - DNBN SangsangYaechan


Album Name: Always Keep the Faith
Artist: TVXQ
Album Type: Domestic/Studio
Agency: Cassiopeia Ent.
Stars: Five stars (10 out of 10│ there are 1226 reviews)



01. Intro │*Composed/Written/Arranged by: YoungWoong Jaejoong
As the opener of TVXQ's magnificent comeback, the strong beat in this song is noteworthy.
YoungWoong Jaejoong takes on a genre never been taken by him, and the result is a big success.

02. Always keep the Faith│*Composed/Written/Arranged by: TVXQ
The title song which all five members composed/wrote/arranged together. The warm melody is beutiful.
One should listen to the lyrics closely when listening to this song as they talk of their stories of overcoming hardships.
The lyrics also tell of the heart-wrenching tales of what pulled them through.

03. It's business [Narr. Ara]│*Composed/Written/Arranged by: U-Know Yunho
U-Know Yunho says he wrote this song for the fans who are spending their nights alone, envying the female lead role in his upcoming drama.
The song has a warm melody that envelops the hearts of the fans.
Actress Ara, who will be in charge of the narration of this song, gave an alibi (?) saying, "A drama is strictly business, nothing more, nothing less."

04. XIAHmolTIC (You can't Escape it)│*Written by: Choikang Changmin Composed/Arranged by: Micky Yoochun
The melody is extremely addictive, and it is a trendy hook song. Composer Micky Yoochun, said the song was, "A song that, once you listen to it, you can't get out of your head and makes you addicted to Xiahmori."
Regarding the lyrics of the song, which have caused 'Xiah Junsu Loner' rumors to spread, Choikang Changmin said, "The lyrics have a basis on our love for Junsu. The people who have been watching over us know all about it."

05. Lies (A Song dedicated to SM)│*Composed/Written/Arranged by: Cassiopeia
TVXQ's talented fanclub Cassiopeia's present to them.
The lyrics metaphorically talk of the fans' annoyance at SM's 'lies'.
Words cannot describe it, one must listen to it for oneself. Even people who weren't at all interested will become furious after listening to this song.

06. Red Hot Pepper ~Jollokia~│*Composed/Written/Arranged by: YoungWoong Jaejoong
YoungWoong Jaejoong is well known for his love for all foods spicy. So it is easy to misinterpret the contents of this song just by looking at the title.
However, this song is actually a controversial song that make girls blush ** just by listening to the sound 'Ring ring'.
In truth, this is a song that exceeds the sexiness of 'Ride On'. It is about a man who has fallen in love with a 'hot' girl.
YoungWoong Jaejoong has once more deprived the fans of sleep by saying, "I've already thought of the choreography for the concert."

07. Charisma Life (Stuck on me)│*Composed/Written/Arranged by: Xiah Junsu
This is a song written by member Xiah Junsu who says (claims) he is in charge of charisma in the group.
This song is a must for people who can only imagine him as cute. You might not be able to escape the charismatic wrinklies between his brows.
On the other hand, there was a rumor that Choikang Changmin refused to record this song because he did not like the lyrics,
but quickly conceded when Xiah Junsu offered him some game items.

08. A Farewell in November - Flip-flops Bye Flip-flops│*Composed/Written/Arranged by: Micky Yoochun
Mikcy Yoochun, who received a lot of attention when he revealed on a Japanese show that he "tried to wear flip-flops till November", wrote this song with his unique melancholy feelings to represent his feelings when he could no longer wear flip-flops.
This song is a ballad that tells of his promise to his flip-flops that he will see them the year after as he puts them back in his closet.

09. Bolero (Korean Ver.)│*Written by: Choikang Changmin
The song 'Bolero', that has been dubbed by fans as the 'not mythical, but legendary live', has been reborn into a Korean version.
Choikang Changmin, who received much praise from his work with 'Love in the Ice', once more rewrote the lyrics in Korean.
The five members brilliant harmony that is finally heard in Korean shows just how different they are from other idols in terms of skill.

10. To my lovely fans...│*Composed/Written/Arranged by: TVXQ
This is a warm fan song for the fans who waited for and believed in them.
When listening to this song that is filled with their love for their fans, the fans will come to believe that becoming a fan of TVXQ was the best thing they've ever done,
and people who weren't fans will end up reconsidering their current state.

11. Always keep the faith [less vocal ver.]


"Although they had to overcome a big hardship, TVXQ came back with that much more maturity.
There is no one to stop them now that they've bounced back,
and there will be one to surpass them now.
All fans have to do now, is prepare to enjoy their time with these five. Are you ready?"

Until this NR becomes reality. Always keep the Faith. [DNBN Sangsangyechan]

“From two members of Tohoshinki I received CD and also handshake. Yatta! Yatta! It’s a rare chance to meet them.” he continued, “I feel the great charm and they’re really someone whom you want to meet. Tohoshinki is getting more and more popular these days. They’re good looking, having great songs, and also good in dance.”

At the Boy Pop Factory event, Tohoshinki’s Jaejoong and Yoochun sang 4 duet songs.

Writing down his memories of a-nation in his diary!

When told that he's 『surprisingly good at it』
Black Changmin was offended and asked
『Why are you surprised!??』
(^ _ ^; )



Jejung...

Is reflecting on yesterday's performance!
When we directed the camera at him,
he gave us a handsome shot-
(^0^)

Before the performance...


They received Tokyo's famous produce from everyone!


Jaejoong is full of praises for the rice crackers, and
Yunho is full of praise for the kaminari-okoshi (T/N: a form of sweet rice crackers)

Yunho wants to bring it back!
He told the staff this.
(laugh)

Right!

To the stage!

To cheer them on!


We'll do our best for the second day in Tokyo as well!!

"Indeed, there are quite a number of audiences who are DBSK fans."

The results for those who are chosen will be published on the 27th this month.

TVXQ fans:

As heard in Osaka and Tokyo, at the a-nation venues, we are planning toh ave a silent protest campaign. If you are participating in the Osaka or Tokyo a-nation event, please join in!

If you want to do something for TVXQ...
We should have the same idea as the Korean Cassies who had a silent protest; their theme was "Cassiopeia Together."

We, as big fans as TVXQ, have decided to have a silent protest against SME with red ribbons!

Participatein this event, it is really simple; Please have a red ribbon with whitetext that says "Always Keep the Faith!" If you are able to include a message to TVXQ on the ribbon, the better it is. The ribbon can be worn on your wrist. It is also preferred that everyone has bags and t-shirts that say "Always Keep the Faith!"

If you have thoughts such as"I love TVXQ"... "I really want to do something for TVXQ"... Such thoughts, please, let's join hands and let this message travel byword-of-mouth or by writing in blogs.

If you are going to join in this silent protest:
In any case, please do not give any trouble to TVXQ.

If you have friends that are going to participate in this action, we would be very glad.

This activity may seem simple, but it may have more impact than any direct activites against SME. We will be able to give TVXQ visual communications.

Please try to visually communicate that we will always support the five of them and the remaining firm that awaits them.

T/N: The fanaccount was written by a w-inds fan named Hami who went to the Daiba Folk Mura Deluxe 26th Night.
Summarized translation was provided by vilanka@ameblo.jp
Some non-dbsk parts were taken out.

“According to Hami, the venue was filled with Tohoshinki fans. itwas overflowing, in fact. There were so many of them that when thew-inds. fans saw each other, they’d started clinging to each other.W-inds. fans brought along some goods with them (Hami brought a w-inds.bag, cap, kk button, a lightstick, among others from this year’s tour).The live ended around 11pm.

After getting in through the entrance, she was surprised to see howlittle chairs there were. The capacity (chair-wise) , a mere 500. and,with tickets going for only about 10 bucks a pop, Of course fans aregoing to jump at that. so, there were a crapload of fans standing. And,considering the live was from 5-11 pm, that’s six hours of standing! Avery long time!

A lot of w-inds./keitafans wore white shirts and black vests, sorta like from the FRIENDrelease event. Sakazaki says to Keita, “You’ve gotten really bigg!!d’ya drink lots of milk?” To which Keita replied, “Ah, I don’t reallylike milk.. I eat meat!”
They talk a little about Music Station, and Keita says that he’s aboutjust as nervous as he was when he was performing for the first time onMusic Station.

After the first talk ended, Sakazaki introduced Keita’s first song, which was Everyday! (without Ryu and Ryo).
His Everyday performancewas live, and the piano was beautiful (i want that sheet music!) Keitasang so beautifully that you wouldn’t have thought that he had pain inhis throat. After his performance, Tohoshinki fans started shouting out things like “umai~!!” (he’s good!) and stuff like that.

When it was Jejung’s and Yuchun’s turn to perform, the screams andcheers frmo the audience were incredible. The fans beside them thatwere Sakazaki fans were also really surprised. Hami, the fan, doesn’treally know the titles of Tohoshinki’s songs, so she doesn’t know whatthey sang (she said she’d check Tohoshinki fan’s blogs for the names).She only mentions something about the MC part where Jejung and Yuchuntalk about Keita.

So, Jejung announces, “I’m close friends with Keita!”
He continued sharing stuff like they went to karaoke together and sang 20 songs.
Then he’s like, “…maybe that’s why Keita got that cough…?!”
To which surprised Yuchun replied, “Keita doesn’t drink sake?!”
Jejung goes, “No, he doesn’t.” Then he continues listing things they did, “we went to Tokyo Tower together”, etc.
He says, “Keita’s a very unique friend; one of a kind in Japan.”
Hami says Jejung was laying his feelings down on the stage and looked really really happy

For the last encore, all of the performers came out together withthe event T-shirts on and sang “kaze ni naritai” as a huge chorus.Keita and Fumiya sang together, which hyped up Hami.

After the singing was over, all of the performers gathered togetherto have pictures taken for commeration’s sake. KK, JJ, and YC all puttheir arms around each other’s shoulders and had big, happy smiles ontheir faces.

Keita seems like he really enjoyed himself. Next time, it’d be niceof all three of them as w-inds. could go on a performance like that.”

5 member idol group TVXQ's Choikgnag Changmin will begin filming for his first drama in September.

On the 22nd, TVXQ's agency SM Entertainment said, "There is a high chance that Choikang Changmin will begin filming for the drama 'Paradise Ranch' in early September," and "Choikang Changmin will be the lead role in this drama."

This is the first time Choikang Changmin will be starring in a drama in five years since his debut in 2004.

This drama will be co-produced by Samhwa Networks and SM Entertainment, and is planned to begin ariting later this year.

On the other hand, TVXQ's leader U-Know Yunho's drama MBC's new Wednesday-Thursday drama 'Heading to the Ground' will begin airing early September. This is also U-Know Yunho's first attempt at acting.

U-Know Yunho revealed his thoughts regarding his first attempt at acting with his fellow TVXQ members cheering him on.

On the August 21st episode of MBC 'Section TV Entertainment News', the shooting for the poster of MBC's new Wednesday-Thursday drama 'Heading to the Ground' was aired. U-Know Yunho, Ara, Lee Yoonji and Lee Sang-yoon were present at this location.
When asked about his thoughts regarding his first attempt at acting, U-Know Yunho wittily replied using the drama's title and said, "I feel like I'm heading to the ground." Regarding the reaction he was getting, he said, "The other members told me that they think I'll do well and that they support me 100%. They said that the character is very similar to me since we both have a lot of charm."

Lee Sang-yoon, who has to play a role who constantly fights U-Know Yunho and riles him up, did not say much as he took TVXQ fans into consideration and said, "He's doing the best that he can." Lee Sang-yoon also made viewers laugh by subconsciously sitting straighter and looking more nervous when the subject of TVXQ's fans Cassiopeia came up during the interview.

'Heading to the Ground' is a love story that results from the misunderstandings that arise between passionate yet unlucky Bong-goon and Kang Haebin (played by Ara), a girl who has everything but wishes to succeed on her own.

U-Know Yunho plays the role of Cha Bong-goon, a man who lives an unlucky life, having almost died three times, but still lives a passionate life in order to fulfill his dream of playing on the national soccer team. The first episode airs on September 9th.

Exclusive contract .. “lifetime contract” vs “for overseas expansion”

DBSK side: “Other famous agencies only have 5-7 years contract with their artists, in coherence with Korea Fair Trade Commissions which allows maximum 7 years for exclusive contact period, not as many as SM which lasts until 13 years.”

“Most idol singers’ active period is during the prime of their life. Therefore 13 years contract can be viewed as a lifetime contract.”

“In addition, if they terminate the contract during half way period, the penalty of sum of total investment and loss will cost up to 100 billion won which is the long term contract device to not allowing the artist to escape.”

SM side: “We already made several times modifications at the contract, in each and every points FTC can not accept. Also, if the artist wants to go international, they can’t choose but to have a long term contract.”

“We already had plan in our hand to do S.E.S record expansion with Japanese famous label back then, but it failed since they couldn’t take SM exclusive contract.”

“BoA, Kang Ta, and other artists engaged in overseas activities have exclusive contract period for 15 years. In order to get a result for overseas activities, we need a long period of time, we can't help it.”


Revenue distribution .. “it should be proportional to income” vs “They’re agreed facts”

DBSK side: “The three members think that they do not get distribution revenue fairly to their proportional income. We respect SM business secret, but we also demand an exact calculation data about the income.”

SM side: “We released settlement data about each member publicly every six month. In fact, last February, all 5 DBSK members’ parent had signed the settlement and made an agreement about the contract.”

DBSK side: “The three members are still young men and don’t even know the content of settlement they had just signed. When our lawyer asked for re-statement of accounts, with reasons that it’s secret, the company refused to provide the data. Later on, SM only invited the members without any legal companion to look and talk about the data.”


Cosmetics business .. “a common example,” vs “the nature of the case”

The lawyers of DBSK’s 3 members refused to make further comment about cosmetic business which is believed by SM side to be the nature of the case. “They do not put big investment in the cosmetic business and it’s a common incidental income among artists to have. We did not feel that money was the problem in this lawsuit so we did not talk about it on its own.”

SM side: “But the 3 members who applied this case are all the owners of cosmetic business. It proves that this is the main reason of this case.”

“As cosmetic business owners, the members will expose their image in to any events held, as well as in the homepage. And it’s considered as violation to the exclusive contract. SM should ask them to self-control regarding such kind exploitation because it has possibility to decrease the shock (exclusivity) of DBSK overall images.”


DBSK will continue….

SM side: “Through this lawsuit, we hope to resolve any misunderstandings with the applicants (3 DBSK members), to deepen trust therefore we can together lead the future 2nd Korean wave. The star and agency, we want to grow together as their companion.”

“We have unlimited affection to the applicants and right now we’re seeking a long-range plan vision to debut them in Hollywood, United States. We hope this case can be resolved.”

DBSK side: “If you look at Shinhwa, although each member is in a different agency, they still perform as one group and the three members, even if they move agencies, do not wish to disband. As TVXQ, they don’t want any separation among the members.”

“The three members have a deep feeling towards SM, but they’re ready to accept any possibilities this case might leads in the future.”

SES Eugene expressed sadness regarding contract conflicts between Dong Bang Shin Ki and SM Entertainment.

In the recent SPN interview with Eugene, she said “Not only Dong Bang Shin Ki, there are many entertainers are undergoing a contract relation difficulties. It’s more like the artist who is engaged to the contract is not familiar with the contract itself.”

“Being compared to the past, I don’t know if improvement has already been made. The past period contract was relatively too long and not flexible.”

Eugene explained the reason why after a rookie gained popularity, he/she tends to involve in conflict with the agency, “When being a rookie, you don’t know anything. The officers asked to hold the contract term and conditions without any understandings from the artist. However, when the artist has already been aware, he/she finally read carefully the agreement details in the contract, that’s when most likely conflict starts to arise.”

“It’s also because the contract difficulty which rookie are having difficulties to follow. Agency should consider to set more flexible terms and conditions that has variables to adapt depending on the changing environments.”

History in Japan volume 4 is #1 on HMV Japan




Okie, basically what it says on the bottom is that Cassies are peeved off that no reporters are writing anything about TVXQ's successes in Japan while they're writing a ton of articles on rumors circulating around.
