The first series of his solo will be the appearance in musical "Kizuna" starring Lead as the protagonists (November 18~23 at 新国立剧场・中剧场, Tokyo). Park Jungmin expressed his aspirations as he expresses, "Musical is a combination of singing, acting and dancing, and that is very appealing to me. Though I haven't seen the script yet, I'm happily anticipating it already".

He also announced the holding of two fanmeets in December in Tokyo and Osaka respectively. "Since my aim is to be the No.1 male guy to be hugged for, is it possible for me to hold a hugging party with all the attendants then?", as he does lip-servicing with that.

His Japanese agency management Yamaha Music will also be producing his Japanese solo CD discography.

S501 member Park Jungmin held his official press conference to announce his future Japan activities on 17th in Tokyo Minatoku's ANA International Hotel.

In the interviews with Japanese media, he made use of his fluent Japanese skills learnt during SS501's long-term stay in Japan back then for their Japanese activities as he made known that in future he will be developing as an actor and as a singer in Japan, hence increasing anticipation.

With response to the questions asked by the Japanese media, Park Jungmin did not make use of any translator to answer the questions but instead answered them by himself without hesitation along with his amiable personality in creating the happy atmosphere.

Regardless of the many flashes here and there coming from the cameras of each media, Park Jungmin expressed his gratitude for their attendance as he poise for the lenses to keep Fighting.

With regards to the question asked about his first solo activity in Japan, "I feel a little lonely now. It seems like there wasn't a time I've felt how wide a press conference's table could be. But it won't do if I don't say some things straightforwardly, so it's kinda complexed actually".

However his lonely expressions were for a moment only, "At the end of this month, I will be holding a press conference in Taiwan; in November, I will release a single in Korea and prepare for a musical & fanmeeting in Japan; while next year, I will also have a drama in Korea and Taiwan", as he describes his busy solo schedules and shows his strong confidence.

Yamaha A&R CEO Seumi Junichi who was the main organizer of this day's press conference who also attended to it expressed with regards to Park Jungmin's Japanese music activities, "Though it's aimed for December, we will slowly adjust according to his Korea music activities and then decide because looking at the situation now, we can't say for sure in detail".

On the other hand, Park Jungmin will be having a friendly appearance in the musical "Kizuna" (絆―少年よ大紙抱け) from November 18 to November 23 in Japan Tokyo.

'Kizuna' talks about the pure love story where - in order to win the hearts of a woman whom they both fell in love with, two high school students who will soon be graduating took battle on in calligraphy. Park Jungmin will be acting as a Korean exchange student Park Jeonsul who will be giving a powerful performance full of vigour on the stage during the graduation party ceremony. He will be starring alongside other Japanese actors.

In addition, 2 sessions of fanmeeting on December 22 and 23rd under the name of Park Jungmin's individual fanmeeting will be held for his first time in NHK Osaka Hall and Tokyo JCB Hall.

[17/09] Naughty Kiss further sinking ratings

On the 17th according to TNms Ratings Research center, 'Baker King Kim Tak Goo' recorded ratings of 50.8% for its final episode on 16th Sptember. This is after 2007's MBC 'Jumong' in 3 years time only that a drama reaps ratings higher than 50%. -next few paragraphs ommitted intro about Baker king- -last paragraph about Jangki ratings not accurate-

MBC drama Playful Kiss has once again recorded low ratings. On the 16th, despite a kiss scene from protagonist Kim Hyunjoong and Jung Somin, according to AGB Nilson Media Research Center, it recorded ratings for its 6th episode at 2.8%. This is actually 0.5% lower than the previous night (15 Sep, #5)'s ratings.

Though this drama is directed by Hwang In-roi PD and stars 'Boys over Flowers' Kim Hyunjoong as it collated high anticipation beginning since its development stage, this drama's 1st episode only recorded 3.5% of low ratings, and continuously falls into a dipping state of ratings.

-3rd paragraph-

However to take a peek by lifting this reality lid, Playful Kiss that began ratings of 3.5% on its first episode, and then subsequently 3.7% for #2, 3.5% for #3, 3.4% for #4, 3.3% for #5 and continuously reaches 2.8% in #6 (according to AGB Nilson Media Research) as it suffers constant 'insults'. This is the lowest of the lowest amongst all dramas broadcasted in this year so far.

The problem of Playful Kiss isn't just about the ratings. With KBS 'Baker King Kim Tak Goo' taking the highest end of ratings, Playful Kiss who started out later could possibly due it to that reason for its tough battle that its currently fighting for. Though that is the case, another battle rival coming from SBS 'My girlfriend is Gumiho' manages to record ratings around 10%-plus with its cheerful storyline as it garners the good raves of the young audience generation from and on the internet; whereas in contrast to this, Playful Kiss is receiving disregard from the same young audience generation, which is the problem.

Though criticisms targetting towards Kim HyunJoong, Jung Somin etc's acting and the too excessive fanciful manhwa-like production does not dip as usual, there is still a chance for them to be revived. The first and foremost reason would be because its strongest rival KBS 'Baker King Kim Tak Goo' has ended its final run. Of course, because the follow-up work to KBS 'Baker King' is 'Fugitive Plan B' starring top stars Rain, Lee Nayoung, Daniel Henney, it will look difficult for Playful Kiss to take the better advantage side, but still for sure there is a little chance for it to improve.

With the drama's stage moving from high school students Seung-jo and Ha-ni to undergraduates as the story begins its official full-fledge development is a good sign. Hwang In-roi PD who focuses highly on the beauty of his works is also another good sign. Positive reactions and responses towards the drama itself, drama characters, Kim HyunJoong's change in style to Hye-ra who appears in Episode 6 is also getting more feverish by the day with anticipation building up.

For the sake of putting this opportunity to maximum use, MBC will be opening its "Watch Again" service for free beginning 24th September until 2 October through its official homepage. In addition, during the Chuseok period, there will be no replacement with other programmes and will proceed to air as usual.**

**Other tv stations will be replaced.
SBS my girlfriend is gumiho will be replaced with a movie
KBS Fugitive will also be replaced with a movie
Only MBC Playful kiss does not

Always read tweet posts from the bottom and going up. I've put in the link in the photos wuri boys have posted so you can link it up to the tweet. So Young Saeng wants to go back to the states. Hyung Jun asked Hwang Bo to follow him back and she did. Curious as to who is that @hyeongjin2? He's their old manager back in the early days and seen accompanying Kyu Jong during the 3D VIP Premiere - see the fancam here.



[16/09] Jung So Min's Selcas from Playful Kiss Set

Credits to isplus.joins.com + (English translation) ss501ode.blogspot.com

Hello, I'm the actress Jung Somin. It seems like 2010 has become the unforgettable one year to me. After receiving much love as Hong Mone from SBS Bad Guy, I took on the role as Oh Hani in Playful Kiss. I already used to like watching Hwang Inroi PD nim's works, this time we are able to work together, I really feel so honoured.

Because the ages of most of our casts are similar and close, we joke often at the shooting set and also share many little chats as we shoot under such a friendly atmosphere. I still have much room for improvement as I'm still a newbie; From my partner Kim Hyunjoong-ssi to my father in the drama Kang Namgil sunbaenim, they have given me lots of help, I really feel so grateful to them.

Only last year, the matters which I couldn't even bear to think of has now happened as a part of my daily life, until now I still find it hard to believe. My daily life that is like this dream will now be revealed to you guys.


1. "Ddan ddan ddan~", uploaded the wedding ceremony with Hyunjoong-ssi. In the drama, finally Hani's one-sided love comes to a close, is she really getting married with Seung-jo already? In actual fact, it's actually an imaginary wedding. This is my first wedding dress worn ever since debut. How's it? Very compatible with me?


2. A shot of me in uniform! In the drama, Hani lives under one same roof as Seungjo, and because both of them attend the same high school, there are many scenes that I shoot with Hyunjoong-ssi ne. In the drama although Hyunjoong-ssi portrays a character as an arrogant guy, in actual fact he's affectionate and friendly.


3. The three musketeers in the drama who are always with me.^^ If you see Yunhwa unnie (middle) and Seungah-unnie acting it out comically at the shooting set, your smile will surface for sure. Especially Yunhwa-unnie as a gag-woman, she's always in charge as the mood-maker at the shooting set.


4. Lee Taesung-ssi whose role is 'tough guy' Bong Jungu who loves Hani single-heartedly. In the drama, he who shows his so strong Busan accent, and that one strand of permed fringe is so strong-impressioned, isn't it? His synchronization with that character in the original Japanese manga is 100%. I really give it to him! I admit!


5. Our teacher who has been suffering because of the country pumpkin Hani. An affectionate shot with Hwang Hyo-eun sunbaenim!


6. Jjan~ The script for #6. Do you see it already? 'Hani' is written at the far left and a small sticker is also pasted. Enlarge to view it~


7. My manager oppa shot this secretly at the shooting set. So what am I exactly looking at? I'm also not exactly certain. Though it was a shoot across the night, I was focusing fully and so did not feel any sense of lethargic~


8. For the sake of this scene where Hani is threatening Seung-jo to date her, I transformed into a bad student. Along with thick make-up which I don't normally put on, and the apparel that diffuses my tough girl charm whole body throughout. Do you see a tough girl there?


9. Why all that dissatisfied look? Haha. It's quite something that this scene now turned out so natural when it was such a wacky expression. kk


10. Namu-ssi (Kim Sunguk) who is a member of the loyalty gang with Bong Jungu in the drama. Is his yellow pama-hair a wig? It's real. Haha.
