Back from Hiatus

I'm back from a week's hiatus due to some problems. Starting today, I guess I won't be updating as much as I did before on SS501. I'll just be reading the updates from Liezel or Yen and will only be choosing some from those to post here. 

There's been an unexpected issue I had for the past week so I decided to rest from blogging anything on SS501 and even U-Kiss had to be dragged into this. I've been thinking a lot of things too. Something happened last Saturday that prompted me to not read or post anything about SS501 starting that day. It made me think that maybe I need to go lie-low on SS501 this year, I'm not sure how long this hiatus will be.

I will still be attending the KyuSaeng fanmeet on February 5 but I've been disoriented about it since last Saturday. For the past six days, I've only been busying myself watching Kang Dong-won's movies, one of my very first biases. At least when I see Dong-won sshi I'm happy and I don't get to remember what happened last Saturday. 

That thing last Saturday made me not read about SS501 because it has something to do with SS501. However, I will still be buying those SS501 stuffs that I don't have yet of course. As for any future events concerning SS501 members here, I think I would still go but just to support them but I think I won't be doing more than that like what I did when Hyun-joong was here. Like checking in their hotel, nahh it's been really expensive honestly. I need to put my money into something else, well since Dong-won sshi is in the army I decided I'll be starting to buy his movies to compensate for his temporary absence. 

I miss the guy a lot even more so now that he's in the army. I missed a lot of things about him when I got occupied with SS501 and U-Kiss but it will be different this time. I'll be having more time for him from now on. 

Dong-won sshi, I still love him more than anyone from my bias list.

Male Group SS501 member Park Jung Min took the lead and started off his first solo broadcast today.

Midnight on the 20th, the solo album 'Not Alone' was released to the public on Park Jung Min's official homepage.

The highlight in Park Jung Min's solo album, where the songs 'Not Alone', 'Do you know' as well as 'My day is Christmas Everyday' are all personally written by him.

Moreover, as the title song 'Not Alone' is the solo debut song to be performed on the stage, Park Jung Min's anxiety together with the messages from the public have gathered much attention.

The splendid orchestra is the main thing in 'Not Alone', with Park Jung Min's voice and the orchestra's melody in the centre. It is said that this attempt has created a new feel for a dance song.

Park Jung Min will have his first solo album showed on the M.net's M.Countdown on the 20th, followed by KBS2TV 'Music Bank, MBC 'Music Core' and SBS "Inkigayo", through which plans for the special performances will be revealed.

On the 20th, Group SS501's Park Jung Min released his first solo album 'Not Alone' and begins his activities as a ambitious solo.

When Park Jung Min was with his SS501 members, he had a lot of asian fans. Now, with this 3 words 'Park Jung Min' he is starting anew with anticipation for good results.

His transformation is visible as he gives off a different feeling in terms of appearance as compared to the past. Losing over 10 kg of weight, with his slim face line and body, you can feel the chicness to that of a so-called 'Cool city man'.

Park Jung Min who seemed to be looking more mature after the weight loss said, "Watching the DVD of SS501 in the past, I was startled (because too fat) so decided to lose weight." as he laughed heartily.

Having moved into his new agency CNR media, there will inevitably fear and difficulties which he may have to face. To which, Park Jung Min responded "Felt disappointed at that point of time when SS501 ended our activities. I was worried about 'What am i going to do'. It was mentally draining and I even thought 'I should just quit'. I had to take sleeping pills as I could not sleep. Probably due to mental stress, i felt really sick."
However, looking back after all these time, he said "Seems to have learned". "Thoughts started growing when I am alone, felt that I should be stronger. If I were to continue as a group, then I would have had to just settle for the reality. I might not have thought of improving myself for the better, therefore being independent might have triggered me. I started thinking a lot about the past too. The times when I went about working hard for the audition. 'SS501 fans may not all be my fans', gradually I no longer have such thoughts and worries."
SS501 members still remains in contact and are always cheering on and supporting each other's activities. Not long ago, Jung Min personally visited the venue of musical 'Caffeine' to cheer for Kim Hyung Jun who was the main lead, after which his appearance has created a sensation.

When asked if the members meet up frequently, Park Jung Min said earnestly "We cheer on each other's activites through phonecalls. However, I don't know why I will deliberately refrain myself when I find myself starting to feel reliant. Especially now. I need to be alone now as it is a crucial time for solo activities"


With the release of the solo, Park Jung Min and SS501's music are strikingly different. A common sight for idols' music are often made of distinctive, splendid scales and a musical-like feel. As for solo album title song 'Not Alone', the hit producer Shinsadong Tiger and Park Jung Min went through great pains for a long time to produce it. It was a song that creates transformation opportunities for both Park Jung Min and Shinsadong Tiger.

Especially so for this album, Park Jung Min has taken up the responsibility to personally write the songs. 'Not Alone' contains messages thrown out for society, Park Jung Min himself and the fans, as he feels some uneasiness while coming forth in solo activities. Nevertheless, for the sake of being with and the faith from his fans, his honest, intact feelings has been revealed.

"Without the 5 of us, it's lonely, as I want to make the stage seemed packed. Originally, I like straight band style, but many orchestration elements has been put into the song. As for personally writing it? Already from SS501, I've written a solo song on my own. I think it's good that for the songs that I sing, I will write the lyrics sincerely no matter what."

"The image of a musician will be shown much more through the solo activities. Though there are chances to perform solo, the focus is often concentrated on the group as a whole. Now I can challenge writing and composing, and receive vocal lessons separately. Except during the early phase of SS501 activities, this is the first time I am receiving vocal trainings. "

Concerns about the first solo stage resulted in many questions asked. "I cannot have worries. I cannot tremble or have burdens, this is something enjoyable. I have to think like this many times. Gradually my self-confidence were build-up." Such Hallyu star-like composure was shown by Park Jung Min.

Even though there are no restrictions to when the 5 of them will return on the stage to perform, right now they are responsible for the stage and to sing. For the sake of this album, Park Jung min explained his "feelings of a father" for this album, "During the time as a group, my own part is the only thing I need to concentrate on, however as a solo, I have to be in control of the overall flow on the stage. Being on the stage is like widening my acting skills. Originally, I had dreams of being an actor, but being on stage seems to allow me to have feelings of acting too. "

Meanwhile, Park Jung Min will be set to spur off his activities, starting with Mnet "M.Countdown" on the 20th.
