On this day, even before the official event began, hundreds of thousands of fans gathered in an orderly manner to await the entry into the event hall, which was quite a sight. In order to catch a glimpse of Kim Hyun Joong who will be standing on the stages of those 2 showtime sessions, hundreds of thousands fans filled Osaka Grand Cube Hall and grabbed every possible seat at once.With all the many seats sold out for each session , It showed the enthusiastic and passionate welcome from fans towards them.

[Fan Account] At Hamana Lakeside Plaza with Kim Hyun Joong

Report on 1st Love Story Shooting in Hamana Lakeside Plazaby lafone's friend
Japanese to English translation by lafone / liezle.blogspot.com


I actually thought he was still in Bali during this wedding photo shoot since the backdrop looks like a beach to me but it's a pool or a lake. Turns out, it was in Hamana Lakeside Plaza in Japan. I saw this yesterday and the fan account of him leaving the hotel in Osaka, then the fan account mentioned the wedding shoot for 1st Love Story. I was like what's the connection. So now everything's clear, it was in Japan and I'm glad there was no bride.



I saw Leader at 7:30am when he was about to leave the hotel (Rihga Royal Hotel in Osaka) . He waved his hands to the fans many times till when the car left the hotel.

I spotted him on the platform of Bullet train, Hikari leaving 8:40am from Osaka.

In the train, I was sitting two seats back from him. As he arrived at the platform 10 minutes before the departure time, there were already plenty of fans following him. He seemed tired; smile disappeared from his face, and therefore, I could not take a picture though I had a chance.

At Hamamatsu station now ! He seemed to have fallen into sleep immediately when the bullet train left Osaka. He always keeps a backpack with a Chinese hat (?) Mr. Kim, Director of DSP Media picked him up at the station. (It is said that he also attended BOF event as well)
The shooting of us (lucky enough to have been chosen for “extra” as guests to attend the wedding ceremony) started one hour later than expected. Poor children! They were required to walk again and again, scattering flower petals on the Virgin Road under blazing sun. When we heard “cut”, everyone applauded !


Now the shooting of Leader, dressed in tuxedo, started. When he stopped just in front of the virgin road, we lets go the balloons, then applause. He was also asked to do this again and again. However, in front of us, he said to us “Though it is hot, Kenchana ! Let’s work hard together ! “ or “ I’m ashamed” . Each time he stopped in front of us, he talked to us something. Before the director said “Ready! Action!,” he was so cute, but once we heard “Ready ! Action !”, he completely changed his face expression , becoming the character of the story, a real actor !!! We were so tired of applauding many times, but he made us laugh by gesturing “stop applauding” immediately after the voice of “cut” by the director.

The next was to shoot the scene Leader received a flower bouquet from a little girl. Leader accepted by kneeling in front of the girl. The girl tightly holds the index finger of Leader until she was asked to leave it. She was so nervous which Leader recognized, smiling at her to make her relax. During the “standby” hours, he made many pictures with children, staff, and so on.

There was no bride, but he acted as bridegroom, extending his hand to the “the bride” Contrary to the rehearsal scene, he made NG many times as he seemed to feel awkward, laughing himself, so cute ^^


During the waiting time, he answered to questions made by the fans. He also asked us where we were from. It was amazing that there were fans who came from Seoul. When a middle-aged lady called him “Oppa”, he seemed to get shocked, a bit angry ? However, we made fun, calling many times “Oppa “ He also went to the fans who were watching far as they were not extra. In this way, the shooting continued for three hours.

He repeatedly said “it’s hot !” He was always dressed in tuxedo even under the blazing sun but he always looked cool. I realized how hard the shooting is ! Each time we heard “cut”, we applauded him. When, the director said “Once more”, we shouted “ Fighting!” then he nodded, or laughed. When everything was finished, there was a big big applause.

Finally, a group photo session of 20 people. He made a thank you comments to the fans “ thank you for supporting the shooting, and thank you again for observing the don’ts “ Then a surprise gift from him !!! He shook hands with us one by one, with eye contact for each of us.

I was so lucky to be able to see him just in front of me, chatting, laughing together, so happy moment. He was so~~~~~ cool when he changed to an actor, “Ready ! Action !” He was really really, nice-looking , cool guy.

I bet those fans don't really have to take the train and go somewhere. They just wanted to tail him. Even in a public train station, he looks just as handsome as always. I really love those sun glasses and the cap on him with the matching ear phones on his ears. 

I think this is his style whenever he goes out even in Korea. His fashion sense is really something. I love it! I really  love his hair right now. 

The people in that train, the people who will sit across him or sit beside him don't know how lucky they are.

08/20 [news] “Mischievous Dance”... Kim HyunJoong Dances on the Street

Credits : mobile.sportsseoul.com + SS601.com + (English Translation) xiaochu @ Quainte501.com


 

Indeed, one would not be able to hide their profession. It suddenly came to my mind when I chanced upon Kim HyunJoong on the street. He has currently put a temporary halt on his singing career and concentrating on acting. But every now and then he shows that he is missing the stage.

Recently on my way back after covering a news report, I passed by a famous studio. There was a van in front of the studio, there was someone dancing diligently and walking out. I looked more carefully and it was Kim HyunJoong. His body was swaying lightly and he was swinging his arms, and humming to himself.

It turned out that what I have seen is Kim HyunJoong’s habit. Whether he is walking on the street or taking a short break, as seen in these photos, he does not let his body stop for even awhile. This is a habit of a leader of an idol group who dominated the scene awhile back.

His front hair was styled back showing his forehead, which reminds me of Elvis Presley. His make-up was completely done too. It seems like he has just finished a photo shoot or commercial filming in that studio, and only changed to casual clothes before coming out.

Pretty boys just look like pretty boys. Even when he wears a plain training suit, he shines as if he is wearing a branded suit. He wore a white hoodie and black training pants that goes to his knees. Always seen in luxurious and neat clothes, he looks approachable in this free and easy style.

He looks like he has lost a lot of weight because of the new drama on hand. Because he got thinner, his face contour became more defined and his jaw line is sharper. Because of his sharp facial features, he gives off an appeal of a matured guy.

Kim HyunJoong is filming for MBC TV ‘Mischievous Kiss’ to be broadcasted on 1-Sep. Kim HyunJoong acts as UmChinAh** Beak SeungJo, who will capture the hearts of female viewers.

I like the  outfit. I mean yeah I like almost everything he wears because he just looks damn good looking in anything. I specially love the white under shirt and the really unique and pretty belt. 

Why looking so far Leader?! He seems to be in a deep thought while looking at the beautiful beach in Bali.

Official Posters of Mischievous Kiss are Out

I love the posters. They're so fantasy - like and so colorful. I liked it because the colors are not annoying. They really did well with the poses and the outcome of the posters.

This is really gonna be daebak! Playful Kiss will be DAEBAK!!!! 
Few more days to go and we'll see Baek Seung-jo, the genius guy who dares to challenge Yoon Ji-hoo.  

 

Upcoming new MBC Wed-Thurs drama ‘Playful Kiss’ to be released on September 1 has revealed their 4 types of fantasy-like posters.

On the 19th, according to a Group Eight personnel, this time’s posters display a fantasy-like feeling accompanied with colourful objects thus forming a unique combination with the characters. With this, it brought about larger curiosity to what interesting episodes ‘Playful Kiss’ will have in store in future.

Group Eight also said, ”In order to bring out the strongest charm our K-version Playful Kiss could have, our staff and producers devoted all their heart and time into doing researches between the original manga and J-ver, T-ver; and of course not forgetting hard work for these posters, too”.
In addition ”You see, because Korea itself, is the main factor why audiences internationally across the world choose to watch K dramas, and exactly because of that, in audiences’ point of view, in order for them to regard our works across as really beautiful video pieces, we have decided that utter visual effects goes as the concept core behind the shooting of these posters”.

Recently at the poster shooting location, as compared to Kim Hyun Joong who has to remain at his unchanging posture and keeping on with an expressionless face thanks to his tactless character Seung-jo, Jung So Min who portrays character Oh Ha-ni –who is always overflowing with energy– instead displays her beautiful break-through smile all the while and goes around mixing with people, which is why she earns the liking of surrounding staff.

Despite his fellow cast mates joking here and there on the set, Kim Hyun Joong who has to maintain his cold and indifferent expression all the time exclaimed, “because I’m too close with Seung-jo, I’m now unable to even laugh”, thus drawing laughters with his peculiar statement.

When shooting ended, Kim Hyun Joong added, ”In Boys over Flowers, I had the F4 whom I could rely on, but now, because I only have Hani (Jung So-min) who doesn’t remove itself and sticks onto me like ‘super glue’, it’s such a migraine”, “Seung-jo is always Number 1 no matter when and where…For the sake of portraying that Number 1 character, to be honest, if Playful Kiss can achieve really good results, it’ll be really lovely…”, asking for a favour from the audiences.

[08/18] Mischievous Kiss Preview

I saw this last night for the first time. This was shown during Boys Before Flowers Alumni Event last night in Osaka. The audience was so crazy to scream like that in front of the man himself. Oh well, I can't blame them though who could resist such a beautiful smile. I was a bit shock too when he suddenly smiled to Hani. Oh my God, what a smile. And the card Hani is holding shows a moving cartoon of a boy and girl wherein the girl kisses the boy. Look closer, it's moving so cute!

[Engsubbed] Hyung Jun's Malaysia FM Trailer with U-kiss Kibum his younger brother as guest

Credits to 제네시스 드림 엔터테인먼트 Geneses Dream Entertainment + poohlhl + (English translation) ode@ss501ode.blogspot.com

U-kiss' Kibum, Hyung Jun's younger brother and my second bias will be the guest in Kuala Lumpur FM




God, I'm so frustrated with this fanmeet!!! Ate Len just confirmed to me that Kibummie is really coming as a guest for Hyung Jun's private fanmeet in Kuala Lumpur. Damn!!! I can't go, there's no way I can do anything about this now. It's too late, I just found out that he's really coming. 

Last night Janics  also mentioned this to me, but since it wasn't still confirmed I was keeping calm. I don't wanna jump into this the first time I heard about it because I'm not one of Hyung Jun's biggest fans. And I don't wanna regret something when I find out later on that Kibum won't be there. Like I said, I want to go and see Hyung Jun if I could but I will have more of a reason to go if Kibum will be there. And yes he will be.

I hate this because they announced the guest too late. And I found out that he will only be the guest for the KL Fanmeet. 

This has always been what I wanted since Kibum became my bias. I wanna see the brothers together! As you know what could have been the first time of them together here was axed during U-kiss concert. 

I even checked Cebu Pacific website but sadly things isn't working out for me right now. Aug 26, 27, 29 and 30 are all sold out. These are low fares to Kuala Lumpur. 

I only have one hope now, that if Hyung Jun will ever come here I sincerely hope and plead that he brings Kibum with him. But not this year,not this September nor October but next year.

I thought Kibum is busy with U-kiss preparing for the comeback and new album. Why is he tagging along with his brother?! Yeah, I'm selfish I don't want him to go if I won't see him with Hyung Jun. If only I can perform Inception with him while sleeping I will. I will plant an idea on his mind saying that he shouldn't go to KL to be his brother's guest.

What else is my last resort then? No other than to wait for fancams and photos from the event on Aug. 28. This is all I can rely on now. I really miss Kibummie!
