「One of Asia’s biggest group Dong Bang Shin Ki (DBSK), has 3 of its members in a possible lawsuit against their own company SM Entertainment. DBSK members Xiah JunSu, Micky YooChun and Hero JaeJoong had gone to Seoul Central District Court to hand in an application for provisional disposition to terminate all effects of their exclusive belonging rights contract with SM on 31st July. This raised concern among fans about the group’s potential break up. By hearing this out breaking news, overseas fans have put their efforts into an international project. A DBSK’s overseas fan who’s the mastermind of this project has created a channel at YouTube and posted the video by 21st of September entitled, “동방신기 DBSK International Fansong Project 2009”.

DBSK International Fansong Project 2009 has now been completed!

Fangirls Flock To TVXQ's Yunho's Filming Location


Fangirls are flocking to the filming locations of MBC TV's new drama "Heading to the Ground". They do this just to catch a glimpse of the Leader from the group TVXQ, Yunho.

Yunho, who is doing his acting activities under his real name, Jung Yunho, is starring in the show with Ara, a talent from the same management company as him. It is a love story between Cha Bong Goon, who holds bitterness in his heart, and Kang Hye Bin, a girl who has everything, but wants to fulfill her dreams with her own capabilities.

Yunho's fans are showing up at every location that the filming takes place at. When there's a spare moment, between meals, and even when they do late filming, the fans supply them with snacks so that they don't have to go hungry. They also prepared 120 servings of Samgaetang for the production crew, and the fans are really passionate and concerned about their health.

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]

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.”

Translation

I can’t read your feelings since you try not to meet eyes with me,
Because I feel like a lost child, I just wait

Truthfully, I know what you’re going to say,
But I can feel that it’s not your whole heart; your tears tell me

Don’t say goodbye,
I can hear your heart telling me not to let go of your hands,
I can hear you heart; You still just want me,
You can’t hide it, you can’t lie

I won’t allow it – your lie of wanting to separate,
Look in my eyes and tell me,
It’s not…it’s not the truth

Don’t say goodbye,
I can hear your heart telling me not to let go of your hands,
I can hear your heart; Even if the world turns its back on us; Even if it’s a painful love,
You are my love, you are my soul

Don’t say goodbye, don’t leave me now,
The promises we’ve shared is everything to me

Don’t say goodbye, you are my everything to me,
My tired days only look for you,
Like a pond which won’t dry, I’ll love you,
You are my love, you are my soul

Don’t say goodbye, you are the only one for me,
As if nothing has happened, if today passes,
Let’s not let go of each other, and we’ll make it through,
Cause you are my everything to me,
Cause you are my everything to me

Korean

눈 맞추지 못하는 그댈 읽을 수 없죠
길을 잃어버린 아이 같아서 기다리고만 있죠

어떤 말을 할건지 사실 난 알고 있죠
진심이 아닌걸 눈치 챈걸요 눈물이 말하잖아요

Don’t Say Goodbye
그 손을 놓지 말라는 마음이 들려요
그대 맘이 들려요 아직 나만을 원하죠
그댄 숨길 수 없죠 그댄 거짓말을 못하죠

허락할 수 없어요 헤어지잔 거짓말
눈을 보고 말해봐요 아니잖아요 진심 아니잖아요

Don’t Say Goodbye
그 손을 놓지 말라는 마음이 들려요
그대 맘이 들려요 세상이 등 돌려도 힘든 사랑이라도
You are my love, you are my soul

Don’t Say Goodbye don’t leave me now oh~
함께 나눈 약속이 내겐 전부인걸요

Don’t Say Goodbye You are my everything to me
지친 내 하루는 항상 그댈 찾겠죠
마르지 않는 샘처럼 그댈 사랑할께요
You are my love, you are my soul

Don’t say good bye you are the only one for me
없었던 일처럼 오늘이 또 지나면
서로 맘을 놓지 않고 모두 이겨내겠죠
Cause you are my everything to me

Cause you are my everything to me

With the precious money everyone sent us,
we were able to write an advertisement that explained SM Entertainment's unlawful contract on Hankyoreh Newspaper.

We thought that the late President Kim Dae Joong's effort to better human rights throughout his life time and TVXQ's unlawful contract situation had a connection so we decided to print the advertisement on today's issue.

We think it came out nicely and we would like to thank all the people who helped make this possible.

1. You must work for at least 13 years
2. You must work 7 days a week of every month of every year
3. Someone else is in charge of your entire income. It is impossible to negotiate on your income
4. All of your schedules and business aims are handled by your office
5. If you do not work for 13 years, you must pay hundreds of billions of Won in compensation
6. If you cannot work for a time due to personal reasons, the term of your contract is lengthened

*At the bottom, flipped upside down*
1~2 Y: You are in no danger. Earn a lot of money~/ 3~5 Y: You may want to consider changing jobs/ 6 Y: You are TVXQ.


They are worn out emotionally and physically because they have been doing anything and everything their agency has been telling them to do for the past five years.
They have asked numerous times for a reevaluation and revision of their unlawful contract,
but their agency does not listen to their pleas.

The term for TVXQ's exclusive contract is 13 years.
If they decide to cancel their contract during that time, they must pay thrice the amount of investments,
and twice the amount of money they would have earned during the entire term of the contract for compensation.
This applies even when the contract is canceled after negotiations with the agency.
-Clause 2 Sub clause 1, Clause 11 Sub clause 2, 3 of TVXQ's contract

U-Know Yunho is taking his first shot at acting with MBC's new Wednesday-Thursday drama 'Heading to the Ground'. Thanks to his fans support even during the hot weather, U-Know Yunho never seems to be tired and seems to play his role with more strength and vigor.
A representative of 'Heading to the Ground' said, "To support U-Know Yunho, many domestic and international fans visit the filming location almost daily," and "During the hottest day of the year, the fans prepared samgyetang for the staff which helped a lot. Since we were filming outside, they also provided sun lotion for us. We are so thankful."


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. U-Know Yunho said, "When I read the script, I was full of emotions. I wanted to transfer those feeling to the screen and act from my heart."

'Heading to the Ground' is the first drama in Korea that revolves around soccer, and 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.

Lee Yoonji plays the role of Oh-yeon, Cha Bong-goon's long time friend who begins to develop feelings for him and she will be in a love tri-angle with Ara.
'Heading to the Ground' will begin airing on September 9th after 'Hon (Spirit)' has finished.

*note from your translator: Samgyetang is a popular summer dish in Korea and it is basically a whole chicken boiled with various items such as garlic, dates, and ginseng. It is known to replenish the health and is eaten a lot during summer when the weather is particularly hot and unbearable.

DBSK Fancafe’s Prosecution Application Demanding Compensation

On last August 14th, DBSK fancafe submitted a prosecution application to Korea Consumer Protection Board with subject ‘The postpone of SMTOWN LIVE ‘09′.

The fancafe explained their background of accusation, “They acted unilaterally in postponing the concert, without consideration and fooling all the consumers who had already bought the concert tickets. Thus, we submitted this application.”

In the statement which DBSK fancafe submitted to Korea Consumer Protection Board, they mentioned, “SMTOWN LIVE ‘09 which is scheduled to be held on August 16th is indefinitely postponed.

The postpone was announced a week ago (August 7th) with the reason that DBSK’s case status will make the whole SM family couldn’t unite in the concert.

However, on August 14th when SM released SMTOWN Summer album ‘09, they promoted the song by stressing it as ‘a song which shows friendship among the young men‘ which shows a whole contradictory.”

DBSK fancafe demanded not only full refund of their tickets, but also 10% admission fee as compensation and official apology from SM Entertainment.
