Kim Hyung Jun’s Taiwan Fan Meeting

Hot Song Energized Dance
Games and Hugs
To Reward Fans

After SS501 group activities come to a halt, members’ individual activities instead increased. Right after Park Jung Min held his contract signing press conference in Taiwan last month, Magnae Kim Hyung Jun followed up closely with a visit to Taiwan for a fan meeting, so pea princesses who like Hyung Jun are really fortunate!



Considerately satisfying fans at zero (close) distance, demonstrating his Chinese ability with [ I LOVE YOU]

A day before his official activity, around 300 pea princesses have already prepared all sorts of cheer goods and were waiting at the airport to welcome Hyung Jun. Once Hyung Jun appeared and saw these passionate fans, he did not even bother about the staff surrounding him, and went straight up to the fans to greet them, received the gifts from everyone, and shook hands with fans, hence making pea princess extremely happy. Hyung Jun, too, was smiling happily. He expressed that, “Coming to Taiwan to hold fan meeting, objective is to interact more with fans!” Therefore, not only is he friendly, he is also being considerate to his fans, so this is really “heart-warming”.

For his first appearance at his fan meeting, Kim Hyung Jun has already stirred the hearts of his fans with a self-composed song [I AM]. He wore a navy blue suit, and appeared to be handsome and stylish, and his hot dance with the female dancers made fans super jealous until they kept screaming, probably deep within their hearts, each fan was hoping to be that dancer instead, in order to have such a close distance contact with Hyung Jun.

The fan meeting was hosted by Mr. Good Man — Ken Wu. This is the first time Hyung Jun arrived for his solo activities, that was why he said he was a little nervous, but upon seeing that there are so many fans supporting him, he is really happy. He talked about his midnight radio show, as well as the TV variety show [Midnight Idols] that he would be hosting with Hwang Bo and Eun Ji Won. Hyung Jun jokingly addressed himself as [Midnight Man], and also said that he learned a lot of things from being a radio host and a variety show host, hence allowing him to grow quite a bit.

Of course, since he was in Taiwan, it is unavoidable for him to greet fans in Mandarin. Hyung Jun also proclaimed sweetly to all his fans, “I love you all” (Mandarin), and also learned a Hokkien phrase “Ba Tok Yao” (I’m hungry), and fans present instantly replied with “So cute.” To fans that were picked to go on stage, Hyung Jun kept congratulating them in a comedic manner with “Gong Xi! Gong Xi!” In order for fans to exchange for a [Love Hug] with him, they had to compete to see who could scream “Hyung Jun, I love you!” with the highest decibel. The lucky winner with the highest decibel in the end had a satisfying hug with Hyung Jun, making all other fans so envious that they kept screaming loudly that could break the decibel measuring device!

The more you “Hum” the more “Handsome” you get SS501

*Playing with Hyung Jun’s Chinese Name. Hyung = 亨 which sounds exactly like 哼 which means humming a song. Jun = 俊 which translates to handsome.



Little fan boldly asked for marriage, Hyung Jun smilingly asked her to wait until she is grown up.

Finally got hold of a chance to meet their ideal Idol, naturally fans have many questions they would like to ask Hyung Jun. Fans have all written their well wishes and questions on Post-It notes to be passed to Hyung Jun, and he also sincerely looked at the messages that fans have written for him, and also sincerely answered the questions raised by the pea princesses. There are some cute questions that have put on a smile on Hyung Jun’s face, PLAY have collated these interesting snippets in order to share with other fans who also adore Hyung Jun!
Q. Among being a DJ, singing song, or being a TV host, which one do you like the most?
A. (Without any hesitation) Of course it’s singing.

Q. What do you like your fans to do for you the most?
A. Instead of accepting what fans would do for me, I actually would like to know what fans would like me to do for them or what fans would want the most. (In the end the answer to this question was……Hyung Jun only wished that all pea princesses would tell him “Hyung Jun, we love you forever!” He is such a thoughtful person!)

Q. Hyung Jun oppa, please marry me! (Fans let out another round of scream again!)
A. (Searching for the fan who asked the question……) May I know how old are you? (Fan..16 years old) Then please wait until you are grown up then come and find me again (Laughs).

Q. The craziest thing that you have done so far?
A. In Japan, once rode a bicycle for 30km.. That time was with Kyu Jong and Young Saeng, but Young Saeng hyung didn’t slim down after riding for 30km (OS..Hyung Jun you are taking the opportunity to see revenge right?)

Of course, Hyung Jun also understood that everyone is very concerned about Choco, hence updated fans about Choco. Hyung Jun said, “Choco is in love, I’m currently helping her to find a boyfriend. She is now 8kg, next time if there is a chance to visit Taiwan again for another fan meeting, I will definitely bring Choco along.”



Park Jung Min, Huang Xiao Hu, Hyung Jun foolishly cannot tell apart

Upon learning that Hyung Jun usually looks at the other person’s eyes first when meeting a person, therefore organizer prepared pictures of 5 artistes with only their eyes revealed, asking Hyung Jun to pick person whom he “wish to shop at 101 with”, “to eat Xiao Long Bao with”, “to sing song with”, “future wife” and “to KISS with”. Kim Hyung Jun, judging only from the eyes, first picked Huang Xiao Hu as the person whom he wants to shop at 101 with; when the answers were finally revealed, Hyung Jun could not contain his laughter and stated, “Why does her eyes resemble so much of Park Jung Min’s”

After a short break, Hyung Jun performed yet another song [Mars Men, Venus Women], and this time he appeared at the audience seats, hence leading to yet another round of scream from fans. Because he wished to become closer to fans, hence Hyung Jun kept trying to satisfy his fans thoughtfully, thereby making people touched by his actions.

This was followed by the humming song, guess song title game, lucky fans were able to take photos together with Hyung Jun. And because Mr Good Man wished to fulfill Hyung Jun’s desire to shop at the night market, he brought the snacks and games available from the night market to the fan meeting stage, including flying dart balloon game, Shandong ducks’ tongue, pigs’ blood cake, and bitter tea, hence making Hyung Jun happy. Fans were picked to go up the stage and fans were personally fed snacks by Hyung Jun. (OS..Reading up till here, pea princess must have all gone crazy right?) Lastly, Hyung Jun also made a promise to have a fan meeting at the night market if there is a chance! Hyung Jun later also transformed into an artist, and started drawing portraits for fans. Could only say that pea princesses are really fortunate!



Fans prepared kind gifts, Hyung Jun touched to tears

Pea princesses also prepared a VCR as present for Hyung Jun in order to cheer Hyung Jun on. Hyung Jun was so touched that his eyes turned red, sobbingly thanked his fans, “Really grateful to everyone, actually deep inside I’m a little worried…… Now I’m doing solo activities, so the pressure is pretty great, but I’m very thankful to everyone. In the past even during 501 period, each member also have their own activities, so hope that everyone would view the situation now in a similar manner as in the past, placing the love you have for 501 onto each member, and continue to support us. We will continue to work hard, hope that you could also support us forever.”

Next, the organiser also gave out 4 huge posters printed with the handsome face of Hyung Jun, which were hanging on the stage and also the opportunity to take pictures with Hyung Jun.Hyung Jun mentioned that he would next take up the male lead role in the musical <>. Lastly, he ended this touching fan meeting with the song [GIRLS] and also picked 30 lucky fans that would be able to take photos with him after the fan meeting.

This time, Hyung Jun really touched the hearts of the pea princesses, everything from taking photos together, to autographs and hugs, fulfilling the wishes of the pea princesses. Princesses also do not have to worry, 501 activities would still continue, so please look forward, and also please support every member!

KIM HYUNG JUN LEFT HUG RIGHT HUG
A DAY OF CRAZY FAN MEETING

Kim Hyung Jun came to Taiwan for 3 days 2 nights, on October 24, Sunday, 7.30pm, he held his fan meeting at Taiwan NUS Sports Center, attracting over a thousand fans. This time round, Kim Hyung Jun came to Taiwan alone, not only did he perform 3 songs, he also lives up to his name of being a MC for the way he interacted with fans and his ability to response quickly and spontaneously



Opening with sexy dance choreography
On 23 October, at around 12 noon, SS501 Magnae Kim Hyung Jun visited Taiwan again, different from the previous 3 times when he was accompanied by other members, this time round he came alone to meet fans, holding the stage by all by himself! On 24 October evening, the fan meeting at NUS Sports Center is filled totally with female fans, and they were waving their pearl green light-stick which they each held in their hands. Once fans saw that Kim Hyung Jun has appeared on the stage, emotions ran high, and his opening performance also caused many to keep screaming. He performed I AM with a female dancer and demonstrated sexy dance choreography.

A little nervous about solo stage
After the first song, Kim Hyung Jun who was perspiring profusely, used Mandarin to greet everyone while wiping dry his perspiration, “Very happy to see all of you!” When he was accepting the interview from the host, he first expressed his thoughts about coming to Taiwan to have his first solo stage. Hyung Jun said, “First time having a solo performance in Taiwan, I’m a little nervous, but when I see that there are so many fans who have come to support me, I’m very happy, hope that next time when I visit Taiwan, I am able to perform on an even bigger stage to thank everyone.”

Taking up hosting role to gain experience
When he accepted our exclusive interview last month, Kim Hyung Jun had talked a lot about stuff related to the radio show MUSIC HIGH, at the fan meeting this time, he once again shared funny anecdotes of his experience as host, he said, “There was once when I was hosting the live broadcast, and suddenly I received a short text message on my handphone, with the message ‘I’m waiting for you in front of the broadcasting station, please come down hurriedly to meet me.’ That is someone that I don’t know, yet he has my handphone number, so it is kind of strange.” Hyung Jun recently has also took up the challenge to a host for the TV show Midnight Idols, he feels that hosting shows have enable him many experiences, very rewarding, and because of this job, is able to come into contact with even more people.



Fans’ Post-Its

Before entering the venue, the organiser has prepared a board to allow fans who came to the fan meeting to leave messages for Hyung Jun. Many left messages in the form of questions, and Hyung Jun also picked a few post-its and answered these questions. Below is the collated report for everyone:

TV host, Radio host, singing, these 3 area of work, Hyung Jun like which one the most?
Singing~ (Answered right away without hesitation)

Hyung Jun oppa, can I marry you?
You want to get married with me? How old are you? (This fan replied 16years old.) Come and find me again when you become an adult!

The craziest thing you have done so far?
I once rode a bicycle for 30km in Japan, it was together with Kyu Jong and Young Saeng, but it was quite strange, after riding for so far, why didn’t Young Saeng slim down? (laughs)

Whose big eyes are those?

After the post-its Question&Answer, 5 big pictures showing only the eyes are brought up to the stage in order for Hyung Jun to choose one as the most appropriate partner to do something together. Hyung Jun’s choices are as follows:

Partner to go to 101 together: Huang Xiao Hu
(Xiao Hu who has only shown her eyes has misled Hyung Jun and fans present into thinking that she is Jung Min! When the answer was revealed, everyone got a shock!)

Partner to eat Xiao Long Bao with: Guo Cai Jie (Amber)
Partner to sing duet with: Madonna
Partner who is suitable as wife: Jolin Tsai
Partner whom you wish to kiss the most: Jam Hsiao



Giving out hugs to fans

For the first fans interaction segment, 10 fans went up to stage to compete who could scream [Hyung Jun I love you] with the highest decibel. The person with the highest decibel would receive a chance to share a hug with Hyung Jun. There were fans who were a little shy, hence only shouted mildly, but there were also fans who went all out to scream loudly; Hyung Jun also demonstrated his amiable side, when he saw that there were fans who were a little shy, he would go up to them to pat their shoulders to give them encouragement, or would demonstrate personally to show them the right way to scream in order to stand a better chance. Lastly, the fan who won eventually was very fortunate, Hyung Jun personally called out her name “Meng Ting”, and also gave her a big hug that made all the fans offstage very envious.

Chinese improved, interaction was therefore better

This time when Hyung Jun visited Taiwan, he learned quite a lot of Chinese, and even had a Chinese Test. He learned a few greetings in Chinese, such as “Hello Everyone”, “I am Kim Hyung Jun”, “I love you all”, “Very happy to come to Taiwan”, “Welcome all of you to my fan meeting”, “I’m hungry (Hokkien Dialect)”; When he was saying his last Hokkien phrase, Hyung Jun couldn’t say it clearly, therefore creating laughters for all fans present including himself. Additionally, a wide array of activities was planned to allow interactions with fans, including fans’ post-its, listen to Hyung Jun sing Chinese songs and guess the song titles, shop and eat night market’s snacks with Hyung Jun on stage, etc., therefore giving Hyung Jun and his fans a time to spend enjoyably, and a happy memory. A day after the fan meeting at 1.30pm, Hyung Jun ended his 3days2nights schedule, and returned to Korea in order to prepare for his upcoming musical performance.
 

Hyun Joong's Interview in Hanako Magazine Issue 981 Translated

He rather be called an arrogant man instead

"To be honest, during the shooting of Boys over Flowers, my first scene was a kiss scene, and similarly for this time's drama I also began shooting with a kiss scene (laugh). It just happened that the kiss this time round is like the drama's title - a 'naughty kiss', the very fun and relaxing yet naughty type of kiss".

This [Playful Kiss] that fans have been anticipating for a long time is Kim Hyun Joong's new work that is adapted from the original Japanese manga [Itazura na Kiss]. After [Boys over Flowers], he managed to show us his profile as a handsome-looking student in uniform, again!

"Despite this time being yet another appearance in a manga-adapted drama serial and made me kinda worried about my character limitations, but for the fact that I can star across as a high school student again, it proves that I'm still very young (laughs). In Boys over Flowers, Yoon Jihoo sunbae was very kind and amiable. This time's Baek Seung-jo happens to be the complete contrast. He's sarcastic at times, and will often criticize and mock at others. A total complete opposite in character".

If he is to put it that way, then what is Kim Hyun Joong, who is reiterating about how Jihoo gained him much popularity yet so different, like in real life?

"I don't know why but I often hear from my close friends this one sentence - 'he's always changing', like that" (laughs).




Dubbed the 'perfect smile' , 'beauty boy', 'walking statue' by others

"....Yeah like that. (laughs) But now, I hope to be called as the Arrogant Man just like the protagonist in Playful Kiss". And at the same time after he's finished this sentence, he goes on to display that famous "perfect smile" of his, and this "perfect smile" looks like it could melt the oxygen in any time.

In this tensed shooting period of time, that "perfect smile" has been accompanying by the unique Kim Hyun Joong all the while at all.

Kim Hyun Joong who has been often in contact with Yoochun to discuss about each's Japanese activities will be attending to a charity event in Tokyo Dome with Bae Yong Joon in December.


[29/09] Hyun Joong at Hanryu PIA Interview (Editor's Notes)

Credits to @韓流ぴあ + (English translation) miyo @lovekimhyunjoong.com

Has everyone seen the 「Hanryu Pia 10/31 Issue」 already (laughs)? On the cover of this issue, currently showing in Korea, the Korean drama version of 『Playful Kiss』 acted by Kim Hyun Joong! We will introduce behind the scene of the interview with the loving smile prince, Kim Hyun Joong.


Cool and Beauty! Kim Hyun Joong

The interview was held on 21st August, right before the 『Boys Over Flowers』Alumni Event. In the midsummer heat from the staff, the moment Kim Hyun Joong appeared in the hotel room, the perspiration instantly stopped (serious!). Wearing a suit, Kim Hyun Joong looking tall and with a small face, really is beautiful…… . As if a prince pop out from a fairy tale (laughs). Answering the interviewer’s question with ease. He looks different from the past, the time when surrounded by SS501 members or the time together with the cast of 『Boys Over Flowers』, kind of like matured.



In the interview, he really answered a lot of questions regarding the drama, his future plans etc. He left a deep impression on talking about the work of an actor.
“I thought that instead of saying becoming an actor, it be better to say living as this image, everything of it, isn’t it meant as acting also? For example, I am acting as “the actor Kim Hyun Joong” and everyone is acting as “reporters”. Isn’t it like this? “

During photographing time, as the room was unable to accommodate too many people, all the reporters have to wait at the corridors. After around 10mins, the photographing has ended and Hyun Joong walks out of the room quickly looking over here and before we knew it he greeted politely, “Otsukaresamadeshita! (Good work today)” and rushed heading to the venue of the Alumni event.

Despite busy over the tight schedule, caring about the staff by smiling for a brief moment, the effect was outstanding! Flower boy’s smile really has its power. The dazzling smile made the reporters dizzy~.

Such a Kim Hyun Joong interview can be found in the magazine 「Hanryu Pia 10/31 Issue」.
11 pages of big special feature of pictures and interview is a must see! In addition, we have prepared VIP seat as special present for 『“Kim Hyun Joong 1st Premium DVD & PHOTOBOOK “The First Love Story”』 sales event fan meeting on 11th October.

Source : NowNews Chinese to English translation by WonderrrgilrLiz501 / liezle.blogspot.com





Because the degree of openness in Taiwan is wider, Park Jung Min was asked by the Taiwanese media if he will accept any bed scenes. He smiled and said, " Because recently I have been working out, so I am very confident with the upper part and lower part of my body!"

The host fears that he might not understand the question well, so he asked again to confirm, " You are confident with the lower part of your body?"

Park Jung Min does not seem to know which part he is talking about, and innocently replied " YES! "

As long as it is for the sake of producing a good work it is okay, and he has confidence with his back, therefore even when asked if he will accept fully-naked back scenes, he readily says he can accept.

[Not only does Park Jung Min continuously use Chinese language to greet everyone, 
he also tries his best to use Chinese language to reply as much as he can]

Park Jung Min was asked by the media which Taiwanese female artiste does he know.
He smiled and said, " Barbie Hsu(Da S), Rainie Yang, Chai Jie (Chai Zhi Bing), Chai Jie, Chai Jie..."

The media asked if there is a bed scene, who will be his choice of partner? He started playing with the words with the media, laughing and said, " I will choose "no.4" Chai Jie" and even shouted towards Chai Jie, " I WILL WORK HARD! " which caused everyone to be fully impressed with his humor and interesting reply.

Even though Park Jung Min has been to Taiwan several times, but this particular time feels different. Even though he came alone, in order to let the fans feel his effort, he continuously tried to use Chinese language to reply whenever he could. At the moment, he can now already use Japanese Language fully when meeting with his fans and could express himself fully. Recently, he started working hard in learning Chinese language, hence he has already learnt quite a bit of vocabulary.

The host joked and said, "You can understand alot of singular words, but can you understand the questions that was being asked?" 

Park Jung Min's face is full of suspicion (in mischievous manner), " I don't know~", causing everyone to laugh again.

SS501’s Park Jung Min reveals his official solo activities

CR: HYPERMANIAC @ allkpop + Source: Everyday Economy, Asia Economy, Donga




SS501’s Park Jung Min talked about his upcoming solo activities and confessed his feelings on his group performing as solo artists, at his official press conference on September 30th.

Park Jung Min contracted with Sony Music and revealed his future activities in China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Thailand, Malaysia, Vietnam, and Singapore. In addition, he has already contracted with Yamaha Music Entertainment on the 17th in order to expand his Japanese activities, making Sony Music his official distributor for the rest of Asia.

Park Jung Min is the first member of SS501 to officially announce his solo activities in Japan and the rest of Asia. Kim Kyu Jong and Heo Young Saeng are currently planning to release their own future activities as well. Fans have been wondering how the SS501 members will stay together with all of the members spread out.

In a meeting with reporters, he stated, “A long time ago, I used to think that one of the members could take my place. However, I now believe that right now is the time that our members stand on their own. A group was nice but we all chose solo activities especially for that reason. We did think about going on as five members, but I honestly don’t think that our decision not to is bad.”

- How do you feel about entering the Chinese market?
“I want to be who I am, fresh and fun. It’s hard matching myself to new people but I will do my best.”

- What do you think are some of the aspects Chinese people like you for?
“I’m good at getting comfortable with people and laugh easily. They probably like my friendless and my willingness to learn their language.”

- Do you have any worries?
“Nothing in particular. I’m good at adjusting. However, the Chinese are very religious. As long as I adjust my lifestyle, I think I will be fine.”

- CEO Choi Jin Dong said he will be making you into an even bigger star.
“I’m still lacking a lot of things but I will try my best. I feel like I’ve returned to being a student lately. The minute I wake up, I get managed from head to toe. I have to exercise, rehearse, learn languages, etc. It’s like I’m a trainee again, preparing for debut 5-6 years after I’ve already debuted.”

- Where do you want to be in a year? In five years?
“Since I’m just now taking my first step, I’d like for me to advance a bit faster in a year. I want more people to take notice of me, and five years later, finally find my place. I’d also love to work with the SS501 members once a year. The members want that as well but we’re all in separate agencies. I’d like to personally set a date and actually do it but there’s two that are still trying to finalize their agency contracts.”

- You’ve gone from being a group member to a solo artist. What do you need to do for yourself?
“Being without my members and staff that have been with me up to this point, it’s lonely. I’ve just now started learning Japanese and Chinese. There are things that I’m able to see alone that I wasn’t able to see as one of the other members. I gained weight during our last album and didn’t notice it but now I see those things clearly.”

- Your Korean comeback is set for November. How is that coming along?
“It’s still in the production process. I’ll work hard to make sure it doesn’t get delayed past this year.”

- You’re the first of the SS501 members to officially announce your Chinese activities. What was your main concern?
“I thought that being given the opportunity to work with these people was a rare chance. The Hallyu wave is becoming stronger than ever in the Asian market. I was worried up until the last moment, actually. Sony Music put a lot of faith in me which is why I decided to go through with it.”

- Will it be more difficult to see you in Korea after this year?
“I’m going to be staying in Korea this year for as long as possible. However, I must go overseas next year for my drama. I am hoping to participate in OSTs and whatnot, though. “

- Do you have anything you’d like to say to your fans?
“I’ll remain as the Jung Min they always knew, so please wait for me. I’ll be meeting them all soon with a brand new image.”

Ken Wu mentioned that he has contacted Jung Min recently and over the happy mood, Jung Min revealed some good news to Ken. Ken said our previous worries are wasted and that's all he can say and he believed once he said this we will understand. He told us not to worry anymore because there will be good news (1:39). However, we would need to wait for a while since now all of the members have their individual plans. He also recite what Jung Min said: "Ah! Don't need to worry yo!". In conclusion, Ken told us to continue anticipating for the wonderful day to arrive.

He who was borne as the much well-loved leader of dance and vocal group SS501 in 2005 - Kim Hyunjoong.

Over here in Japan too, he has had surfaced with a major debut in 2007 and sung to aplenty songs and captivated the hearts of many. And now, he is challenging as an actor where he similarly receives much love from his fans.

Last year, he challenged acting for the first time in drama "Boys over Flowers" as the very affectionate Jihoo sunbae where this role had everyone calling him the National Sunbae, proving the high popularity he's had garnered.

"To me, BoF was a work that allowed me to start developing interest in a new field as an actor. When I was acting it out, this thought always came onto mind, 'What if I'm Jihoo, how will I react (to this, to that)?'. The more you truly go into studying the character, the more it will actually be reflected in your acting. In addition, with that kind of way, with that kind of attitude where I will want to go further to study a character, it actually really allowed me to discover an unknown side of mine in the sense 'Oh, I have such a side too?' that kind. So this has really helped me alot in acting too".

He is now challenging a new drama 'Playful Kiss', in it he stars as an aloof teen with IQ 200, Baek Seung Jo. Despite so, he actually revealed that he originally did not have any thought to take on this role.

"Hahaha originally, I had already decided not to take on any high-school roles again after BoF. (laughs) This may be my biggest disadvantage, but to be honest, I'm one who will be very easily influenced by what others say... Like let's say buying clothes. When I go to buy some clothes, they may not particularly attract me at first, but if I hear the salesperson or friends around me who say that it suits me, I will then eventually end up buying those clothes. Just like this time's drama too, people in my agency kept saying, 'Very good suggestion ne', 'If you were to take it on it'll surely succeed', etc....And so because of that I ended up accepting this drama already (laughs)".

This popular role that is highly vyed for by many actors had eventually gone to Kim Hyunjoong, and with that, this truly looks like a Kim-HyunJoong-episode ne.

After deciding to take on this role, he will never look back but will instead try his best to perfect his role -- that is him.

If so, how does he then put in efforts into portraying this role?

"First of all, Baek Seungjo is a genius with IQ 200 and higher, so I had to constantly remind myself that 'I am a genius' (laughs). Also, because this is yet another manga-adapted character, in order not to tarnish the original image, I try my best to stick as close as possible to the original character. I'm also trying my best to show the kind of charm that only Kim Hyunjoong can possess, even if it may be just one charm. Whatever it may be, I just keep telling myself 'I am a genius', which is why I could thus naturally turn into Seung-jo. Yeah, I think of it that way (laughs)".

Moving into new agency, a vastly different environment

Whether it be Jihoo from Boys over Flowers or Seungjo from Playful Kiss, both are roles who initially does not care for anything at all yet eventually falling for a plain girl.
So what is his love exemplar like in reality?

"I'm the practical and strong-willed type. Will fall in love at first sight kind. If I like her, I won't hide but will tell her instead. The girls I like is those cool type. One who could easily and relaxingly communicate with me, and who could also happily allow me to go drinking with my friends. That is my ideal type".

Hyunjoong, one who is always so honest in every thing he answers.

Looking at the way he tranquiled manner he answers those questions, I then asked if there has been any difficulty or changes in the execution of work since he has now moved into Keyeast consisting Bae Yong-joon, after leaving his former agency.

"Obviously because I've changed to a new agency, my working environment has also changed too. Because of that, I will also feel it's not so possible to further execute work with those who has previously worked together with me. But then again, if I don't work harder than now, I will not have any better development in days to come, so I also make many preparations in each area. Only so could I possibly achieve what ever I want to do, that's how I think".

Bae Yong-joon who is in his new agency will come out to meet up with Hyun-joong at times, too. Amidst their conversations, Hyun-joong has learnt quite many things as well.

"Bae Yong-joon sunbae is very humane and realistic, and is also a superb person. Though we share talks together, we don't really talk about any absolutely special topics, but instead some daily life stories. Just that alone I could already learn many ways on how to treat people and attitude on life. I also will want to spread our Korea culture to more and more people in the world, to let them know. Furthermore, sunbae's self-management is also really thorough; he's really amazing".

Though he is such a Kim Hyun-joong, he does not milk down in his body training as well. During holidays, no matter how tired he is, he will definitely go to exercise, this is because he wants to maintain his body shape and fitness.

"No matter what I have on hand, I will go for exercising (laughs), and will also play soccer. Yesterday I had some free time, so I went to kick football with my dancers. Exercising may be really tiring, but in future when I reach 40 years old, my body can still maintain as it is, because exercising helps alot. That's how I think of it".


When we hear words like "wanting to show the maturity as a singer", the concert held last year by SS501 in Japan Budoukan comes onto mind. In the Solo Corner area, that body which Kim Hyunjoong reveals........ At that split moment when he tears apart his clothing, those shrieks coming from fans fill the entire concert hall.......

"I want to recommend exercising to my fans too. I had seen the documentary my fans made yesterday. In it wrote 'ahjumma fan' (middle-aged fans), in Japanese we call it 'obasan fan', after seeing, I didn't really like it. Japanese ahjumma fans often write things like 'I am apologetic you have such an ahjumma fan', but I don't agree with the way they see themselves. If only they could exercise regularly like normal girls do, and thinks of themselves as young ones, it'll be really good (laughs)".

"My gratitude towards fans has always been sitting itself deep down there in my heart. The love I get from my fans, I want to reciprocate them all. But not just by words, I want to also express it in my actions and in a concrete manner. I want to reciprocate them like that. Such a thought has always been in my mind".

Who knows if he will also be presenting any special present to fans in his upcoming DVD photobook to be released end of October. After which, he will also be attending to a charity event "Message to Asia" with Bae Yong-joon at Tokyo Dome on December 14. After current drama 'Playful Kiss' ends, fans who have been anticipating his singer activities will also get their wish granted.

"Had sung for Playful Kiss' OST, and is also doing preparations for my new album. I want to have enough time to go thoroughly prepare for an awesome album. To be honest I am also practising choreography for my new dance songs that will be inclusive in my new album. Though I am focusing mainly on drama for now, I still want to show everyone the side of a singer who has better matured, even if it may be just a little bit. So please, do anticipate much. Same for dancing, I will show even more hype in dancing".

That one sentence he recalls whenever he is lonely -- "So long as you go ahead to do it, you can"

He wants to give this piece of sentence to every friend out there who is in anguish.

Despite hitting the nail, he never does give up finding his road ahead -- and that is Kim Hyun Joong.

Be it as an actor, or a singer, he seems to be slowly slowly, little by little,

expanding his pavement ahead of him...
