TVXQ LIP SYCHED "RISING SUN" LIVE

So cute~ & hardworking ;)

TVXQ is the "ONLY" one who using "LIP SYCHED" throughout the whole song "Rising Sun". I mean I knew that Changmin's mic went off from his face but KBS couldn't just wait a while for him to adjust it, they just continue the program. What's that?! Why KBS would not just wait? The lip syched started from 0:45. I think U-know later found out at the very end of the song. Manly U-know is really work so hard that he didn't realize it.

But somehow I got the feeling that this was done on purposed. I don't know I can only watch poor Changmin sweat so much even with the chest open (Sexy), he was still sweating like crazy more than U-know. U-know looks so "Cool" (Good). It is only a second song. Changmin was like falling apart. Is he all right? Kind of worried that he might collapse anytime. I wonder the SME is treating him right. He really looks too slim (I can see his bone!). Come on SME feed him more, u earn enough money to do that at least. Changmin I LOVE U~ So cute.

Enjoy~ watching TVXQ.

JYJ NEWS BLOCKED AGAIN! Japanese News Writes of Avex’s Threats of Legal Action "U'LL NOT BELIEVE IT!"

[TRANS]

JYJ is a unit that has the most popular person Jaejoong and such, formed of TVXQ’s former members. They had been (set) to implement a charity live event in June in Yokohama Arena, which was to donate its proceeds of 100 million yen (approximately 1 million USD). This was to be reported in newspapers (all over; alternatively, “each”). However, a Sports Reporter says:

“The article was not printed because of Avex’s pressure. Not only that, because Avex has even proposed to Yokohama Arena that “if you push ahead (with the Charity event) Avex will take legal actions,” the event seems to have fallen into pieces (T/N: literally, went floating into air/nothingness). Originally, Avex was in charge of TVXQ’s management in Japan. But I heard that JYJ’s management rights are in Korea’s office and that there is negotiation of the legal issues among the attorneys.”

From Avex’s perspective– Avex tried to make money with TVXQ, but it believes that if JYJ – greater in popularity – becomes active, TVXQ won’t sell.

Uknow's voice Cracked, Changmin Go Solo Please~

Truthfully, they still need a lot more training. They have tried their very best to sing. During the part of 2:04 to 2:07, Uknow's voice cracked. I have being fans from DBSG to DBSQ now TVXQ; I don't want our image of TVXQ to be destroyed. I hope that they will work out, just hoping (worried).

Changmin I LOVE U. But this song suppose to be a sad song and I can see your smile keep on coming out 1:01 to 1:08 and a little here and there throughout the song. Oh man you just ran the song mood. You are just too cute to sing a sad song. I just want to see you smile with a much more suited song, like light hearted, soft loving and high energetic songs. This is not for you, next pick a better one. Love U~.

What's with the hands on the stomach? They are truly called the "Brothers", even the post the same.

Changmin my dear love Please Go Solo~! The Harmony ~ SUCKS! (sweating) We can hear that Changmin is trying his hardest to cover our dear beloved Uknow leader's ass. If I am not wrong, TVXQ has been in the music industries for more than 6 years. Why is our leader still singing in such a way?! Better go acting and dancing or rap (YES). Skimpily saying if they want to work together, they got work very excusal ing hard on the harmony part.

I till LOVE YOU GUYS. DON'T FIGHT, MAKE LOVE. This is what TVXQ is all about "SOUL and LOVE".

Face the fact. TVXQ was never with so much hate, the new "Keep Your Head Down" is no longer TVXQ anymore (very sad). I don't want Changmin to have hate; he is supposed to be the innocence one.

WAR ZONE Between BIG BAND & 2NE1

YG Entertainment’s fandom has been suffering internal troubles due to a fan division between Big Bang and 2NE1 fans.

Many Big Bang fans have recently been voicing their disappointment due to their belief that YG’s head man, Yang Hyun Suk, is “favoring 2NE1” over Big Bang. The internal conflict originated from when YG did not approve of and boycotted the selection process of the ‘Best Popular Song‘ award at the KBS ‘2010 Music Festival’ on December 30th, which resulted in GD&TOP being unable to performon KBS2′s ‘Music Bank.’

On various community sites for Big Bang, fans have voiced out, “2NE1, a group that underwent the most active promotions last year out of YG artists, didn’t have the confidence to win the ‘Best Popular Song’ award, which is why they decided to not attend the show, no? This only resulted in G-Dragonand T.O.Pbeing burdened by the resulting damages. Why does Yang Hyun Suk CEO only favor 2NE1?”

Yang Hyun Suk then wrote an entry on their official YGLIFE blog on December 30th, in what seemed to be a conscious reaction from this backlash. He stated, “The reason why YG decided to reduce broadcast schedules was for the consideration of the artists. 2NE1, for example

Without MR, how good are IDOL groups at singing?

MR (Music Recoreded) makes singer’s music much nicer.

Korean Portal starts getting interested to remove MR from Hot Idol Groups’ songs.

Top Ranked Keyword Search were ‘SNSD MR removed’ ‘Beast MR removed’ ‘T-ara MR removed’ etc..

And from those songs without MR, fans criticize who is still good or bad at singing.
Netizens are really critical.

For Beast, Netizens still like them coz even they have tough performance with powerful dance, their live skill was awesome! (SHOCK & Mystery)

For SNSD’s Genie, Fans were moved with their perfect Harmony.

And for other group like TVXQ, T-ara, Kara, WonderGirls, 2PM, BigBang, Shinee, etc. they got quite honest rate from fans.

Removing MR can hear more about Singers’ voice with minimal other sounds so that it proves singer’s ability to sing well.

DOWNFALL OF SM ENTERTAINMENT WITH SJ THSK DRAGING DOWN

WOW! THSK is really running out of names and dance move. First the “XIAHTH” then the “Survivors”. Are SM really has no more ideals of what name they should have. Even the “Mirotic” name came from Hero himself, instate of the company. I really felt that the Downfall of SM. Even Supr Juniors has not make any big show at all. Right they are only two groups are making the move around. Su Ju– H and SUJU-M. What happen to the other two? One Hee Chul trying to make news by being “GAY” among the group, I think he is trying to tell everyone even "Gay" in Korean can be framous. The other MIA Kim Bum is getting fatter. I felt that Kim Bum is too happy and that why he keep on eating happily. Someone should stop before he turn into another Shin Dong. Ha ha...

TVXQ Banned in Japan?

According to S-San's Blog (a Japanese staff member for TVXQ/ Tohoshinki/DBSK) the rumor that TVXQ has been blocked from Music Station was confirmed. On his blog he wondered why TVXQ was on Music Station's #1 list this week, yet weren't invited to perform. Music Station is a highly popular music show in Japan, similar to MTV's TRL here in the states.Rumors and conspiracy theories were created when TVXQ received many #1's on both the Oricon Daily and Weekly charts, yet weren't invited to the Music Station show. Almost every other artist who were in the top 10 let alone the artists who've reached #1 were invited to perform. Many people believe the reason for this is because Johnny's Entertainment has a secret pact with Music Station. Some people think that TVXQ poses a threat to Johnny's therefore the non-invites.

K-pop Stars Go Overseas

As record sales continue to drop, it is no wonder why Korean pop stars are increasingly going overseas to find new markets for their music. Male pop stars Rain and Se7en, as well as female singers Lim Jeong-hee, Min, G-Soul and Yangpa are preparing to debut in the U.S. Super Junior and Fly to the Sky are holding overseas concerts, while Big Bang and SG Wannabe are making their debut in Japan this year. Boa and TVXQ, known as Tohoshinki in Japan, have concentrated on activities in Japan last year. BoA is one of the most popular J-pop singers, while Tohoshinki is attracting many Japanese fans. According to Japan's Oricon charts 2007 year-end rankings, Boa's album ``Made in Twenty'' ranked 31, selling 340,093 copies. Tohoshinki's album ``Five in the Black'' sold 37,686 copies in Japan (ranked 294). Both albums are also available in Korea. Tohoshinki's album sold 28,484 copies in Korea, while Boa's sold 17,482 copies. Because Tohoshiki's album is considered a ``foreign album,'' it was the second best-selling foreign album in Korea in 2007.
