150730 기다릴게 (Day 116)


140224 - Day 116

today is the birthday of youngsaeng's favorite dongsaeng! and who could that be? of course, its our forever center Kim Kyu Jong!! and because its his special day, this post is dedicated to him. kyujongie is my 2nd favorite SS501 member. i think all Triple S will agree that there isn't anything to not love about this guy. he's sweet, kind, down to earth, simple... etc. a perfect boy next door. i really have a soft spot when it comes to kyu. i was sad because he doesn't have a twitter account anymore so he couldn't read all birthday greetings from Triple S around the world. but im sure he knows how much he is loved already. in just a few months, he will finally finish his military duties. i hope B2M already have a lot of plans for him. will support him 501%!!

again, Happy Happy Birthday, my dear Kyu! love ya~ always and forever ^^

Kyu Jong & Young Saeng AND Story in Manila – Afterthoughts

Ok so few days have passed and I still can't get enough of Kyusaeng. Honestly, it feels like the world has suddenly stop. Everyday, I have this moment where I suddenly stop doing anything, stare blankly and think of all the things that happened during the FM.

I admit that I have certain regrets. After watching some fancams, and reading some fan accounts, I feel like I wasn't able to enjoy the FM to its fullest. I know that im probably one of those “really” lucky fans who attended the FM so those who's reading this right now is probably thinking “what is she talking about?!” haha..but yeah..idk too.

But ok so here are the list of the things I “kind of” regret.

>> I wasn't able to socialize and extend more efforts to meet my fellow Triple S. I mean that's an opportunity already to get to know all of you but I feel like I missed that chance. I feel like my personality is like saengie which is more on the reserved side and I actually find it hard to approach and get close to people in just one day. Even to those TS who I already spoke to online but still I wasn't able to mingle and chat with them that much. If given another chance, I really want to be close with all of you. I don't have close friends who are also into kpop so I feel jealous at times when I see fellow TS who can talk to and spazz about SS501 together coz I know that its a really happy feeling.

>> I wasn't able to enjoy the performances to its fullest. Probably because my mind is in all sorts of different places but I really feel that the performances didn't get “into” me. If u will ask me if saengie's voice is really good while watching him perform live, I probably could not answer right away. Of course I know that his voice is really good and I can just confidently say that its awesome but thinking about the FM again, I was like..I wasn't able to really listen to their voices. I know im watching them perform live but my mind is not really into the performance coz all through out the FM, I still can't believe that they are there..performing right in front of me! I don't know if others feel the way I do and its probably because its my first time seeing them and hearing them perform live that's why I felt that way. And also the fact that there are times I really can't focus because im checking and updating tweets. Keke ^^

>> Third and probably the most thing I regret is at the time I was on stage with kyusaeng. I really want to slap myself when I think about that moment again. I mean its really a rare opportunity to be standing so close to them but because of me being so shy, I wasn't able to interact with them that much..esp to saengie. I mentioned in my fan account that I really wasn't able to look at saengie that much because....i just can't! Haha..now I kinda regret it because there's a chance already..to stare at them all I want! But still, their faces are tattoed on my mind already! Haha!

So what can I say about Kyu Jong and Young Saeng after meeting them in person?

Kyu Jong: He is I can say and most probably u all know is the sweetest person ever! He is really so kind and sweet all the time. If he is not an idol, he is probably the person who you will get close to even after meeting him for the first time. He is someone who will not let anybody feel left out. He takes care of people around him and have such a friendly personality. I read some fan accounts that Kyu was guiding us when we were walking down the stage but honestly, I didn't notice it! LOL! I was walking down the stage that time with my mind probably be in outer space! He can also be a tease at times! Don't let him stare at you for too long coz u will probably can't take it and melt right there and then! He has this kind of stare that will really get inside you and you will just feel dizzy and won't be able to concentrate on anything! Haha. A killer stare! You can always see the sincerity everytime he talks and smile. And really, pics and vids don't do any justice to the way Kyu looks in person. He is really good looking! I know a lot of TS will agree to this..keke ^^

Young Saeng: What can I say about this guy? Haha..he is my bias and I feel that even before seeing him in person, I know and understand his personality already. After watching fancams from the hotel and seeing him smiling and greeting the fans, I felt really happy coz I know he's not usually like that. Other people think that he's a snob but for me he is not...i mean he is..but..aish! i hope u know what i mean! haha! I believe I have similar personality with saengie so I really can understand where he's coming from. When I went up the stage and seeing him up close for the first time, my world suddenly stop. His face is really small and the moment I stared at him, he was staring back..i really can't describe the feeling..and that's the one and only time I was able to look at him. He too, from what I noticed is not having much eye to eye contact with fans unlike kyu jong but you can tell how much he appreciates all the support from the fans, he's just having a hard time expressing it.

So that's it! Keke ^^ lastly, I just want to share this compilation of fancams from going in out of the hotel during the 5 days stay of Kyusaeng here in PH. Thanks to @ivannah501 for sharing! ^^

As of this moment, I still can't get kyusaeng off my mind..i really cannot concentrate on work anymore! haha..don't know when I will be back to my usual self but what happened during the fanmeet is something that I really cannot forget that easily! Ottokae?! keke ^^

Kyu Jong & Young Saeng and Story in Manila (Fan Account)

February 5, 2011 The Day I Will Never Forget

I arrived at PICC around 4:45 in the afternoon. There are already few fans there waiting outside the hall. I went in the merchandise section first and bought the YOUNGSAENG light bar. Because I don’t know anyone in there yet so I just decided to sat by the stairs in front of the hall and just surf the net..really happy the place has wifi..haha.

So around 5:00PM, fans started coming. I recognized Fema so I went up to her and asked about the result of the raffle for the handshake. I look at the list and my ticket number is not included. I felt really sad after that. Then the organizer said that cameras are not allowed and instructed everyone to deposit it first to some place there outside the venue before coming inside. I brought a digicam but I didn’t deposit it. I was able to bring it inside but still wasn’t able to take any pics and vids because the guard (scary one) are always on our side(mianhe). I was among the first one to go inside. While I was seated, someone came up to me and asked for my ticket so I showed it to him. He then gave me a sticker that says “HS” (Hyunsaeng? LOL kidding~) and asked me to put it on my clothes for the handshake later after the FM. I was like what? I thought my seat number was not chosen..i really felt so happy after that..Finally I will see Kyusaeng up close and will get to shake their hands!! ^^ I felt really lucky!! I thought maybe I saw the list wrongly or there is other list besides the one I saw..keke ^^

Then finally the FM starts. First song is Because im Stupid. I really can’t explain the feeling the first time I saw them in person. My mind says “yes they are real and they are just standing in front of you!”..waaahh~~ First thing I noticed is of course saengie. He looks so thin. Both of them look very hot. After the song is the first talk session. A host came out & I was so surprised to see Grace Lee. I told myself before that it will be really great if she will be the host because no need for an interpreter but because she works in the other station so I really didn’t expect to see her. If im not mistaken, she was the host also when FTIsland came here in PH for a fanmeeting last time.

So it’s the question and answer portion. Kyu & Saengie will choose a letter from IN MANILA then a question will be asked. Really can’t remember everything from this segment because…because…idk….haha..really can’t remember. But there’s one that asked saengie to dance to Snow Prince. Of course he danced to it and kyaaa..he looks really adorable!! Then one question that I will never forget (because I was the one who submitted it to Greenlights…talk about being lucky~ haha!) The question is if they were to switch bodies for a day, what will they do? This is the exact question that I submitted to Greenlights FB:
When I submitted this question to Greenlights..i already imagine how they will answer it..so ok this is only my imagination ok..not their real answer..

(Young Saeng’s answer)
YS: because im an only child, I don’t know how it feels to have a sister. So if I will be Kyu Jong, I would like to spend the day with my(KJ’s) sister.
KJ: so you will date my sister?
YS: I’m Kyu remember? She is my sister! (LOL!)

(Kyu Jong’s answer)
KJ: If I were to become youngsaeng hyung for a day, I will attend his baseball match. Then when we came back to ourselves, he will just find out that he doesn’t belong to the team anymore.


Haha! Crazy much? But yeah that was what I imagined. But their real answer really cracks me up. youngsaeng’s esp. So Kyu Jong’s answer is he will go to noraebang coz he knows young saeng likes and is good at singing..and then for young saeng, he said he will go to a public bath and be completely naked~ haha..he said he doesn’t have to worry because that isn’t his body!! Wahahaha..Young Saeng daebak!! ^^ I think they really didn’t expect the question because when they moved to the next question, saengie’s mind is still flying to who knows where..and he said it is because of the question..so Grace Lee asked the audience who submitted that question..i was like..will I raise my hand?..haha..I didn’t in the end..because I was too shy..but glad to know I made them think! Bwahahaha! There are other questions that I cannot remember anymore..mianhe..(edit: ok after reading some other fan accounts..i think there's a slight mistake here..i think the question that ys didn't expect is the question after mine..the question about the possibility of falling in love with a triple s..haha..mianhe..i think im the one whose mind is flying to who knows where!! LOL!)

edit: i just found this short video clip of the interview portion..

So after that is another performance. Kyu stayed on the stage and Nameless Memory begun playing. I was really shocked..that’s Kyu!! But its saengie’s song!! Then after the first verse or something..Saengie appeared and sang together with him. There’s even this part that they were like about to hold each others hand..really sweet.

Then comes the cooking competition. The staff brought out 2 tables. Then it was announced that they would be making Halo Halo (a popular Philippine dessert). Kyu said he already tasted one before. Grace Lee was like yes he already tasted but don’t really know how to make one. Both of them look really cute and adorable while making it. YS said that he only won once during the cooking competition of their FMs. He said he will make his as something he also can enjoy eating. Funny thing is at the start, young saeng was like putting already the ice..haha..the fans are like NO NO..he heard it and I saw that cute expression again. Both of them look totally clueless at the start but the fans are helping them so they were able to make one at the end. Kyu made 3 glasses and YS made 4. Grace Lee mentioned that the reason is the other one that YS made is for her. Fans then complained of course..then grace lee was probably thinking..”I shouldn’t have said that” haha.. Young Saeng is still absorbed in the halo halo that he’s making so grace lee said “May sariling mundo talaga si young saeng noh? “(young saeng really does seems he has his own world right?) LOL! Then they mentioned that 3 lucky fans would get to come on stage to taste the halo halo that they made. The moment they were saying the first lucky seat number, I think I was busy reading tweets. Then when I look up, all eyes are on me..they were like saying..its you..its you. I really don’t know what to do at that time. I just stand up, raise my hand..and I tell you, my mind was probably be in outer space at that time. (with leader..kidding~) I was the first one called so when I went up the stage, it was only kyu, saengie and grace lee in there..when I went up, saengie is in the process of getting another lucky number..but they were both looking at me, smiling and it seems like they are in a middle of a conversation. I feel like melting right there and then! Then they called the other two. I don’t know why but another fan came up the stage..and saengie’s reaction was priceless!! He was like..four? and they were like talking why there are four..and grace lee said..i only called 3 numbers..but the fan is there already..so I guess cannot do anything about it anymore. Saengie was like looking at the glasses of halo halo..maybe he’s thinking..”the other one is for me..now I won’t be able to taste one”..wahahahaha (poor saengie!) When grace lee asked for my name, I felt really shy..i have no problem looking at kyu jong..but I can’t really look straight at saengie. so when I said Hi to him..and he was looking at me, smiling..i wanted to hide somewhere and never come out again. After that grace lee asked me to greet kyu so I just bowed and smiled at him. I was really nervous~! Being with them..so close! Even have eye to eye contact with kyu jong several times..i wanted to slap myself..i really didn’t look at saengie that much..but I was able to stare at his face one time..and its just…ahhh..can’t explain..his face really looks small..actually both of their faces are small..keke ^^ (sorry saengie I wasn’t able to make u win..haha..if grace lee just asked us to choose I will definitely choose you..but because we were asked to rate the halo halo..what am I supposed to do? It tastes the same!) Wahaha..so gave them 10 both. But deep inside me, I also want saengie to lose..coz he looks so adorable when he’s losing..haha..when kyu jong won he gave us a high five..so I was able to touch his hand already at that time..kyu is really sweet..you can really see it by the way he looks at you. ^^

Up next is saengie’s solo stage. He sang Love Like This Eng version. I really like his outfit. There was like a polo shirt (something like that) hanging on the back of his pants..haha..he did that rain dance again which made everyone scream so loud..he even pull his shirt up..just a bit though..haha..Immediately after that is Kyu’s Never Let You Go and it is as usual his most sexy performance!

Im not going to write anything about the vids that was shown because it’s just the same as the one showed on the other FMs.

So what’s next? I guess there’s another talk session? Haha..really can’t remember coz after I went down from the stage..im not in my right mind already..i even stop tweeting updates coz I don’t know what to say. But I remember young saeng mentioned something about the response from the fans on their performances and he mentioned how much more if they perform the special stage already..

Well the special stage is the Wuss Up performance. When the song started playing, fans started to look at the back because we were like expecting that kyu will appear in there just like what he’s been doing on his wuss up performances on other FMs. But it didn’t happen. Someone just appeared from down the stage..and its not Kyu! Its saengie!! the scream is deafening at that time!! At first I feel like saengie’s having difficulty with the timing..felt like the music is too fast for him but he were able to cover that up..and the part where u need to jump..i think saengie jumps too high!! Then after the first verse or something..Kyu appeared~! Saengie disappeard while kyu is singing then went back the stage again and they sang wussup together! Really daebak!!

After that performance, both of them went backstage. Grace Lee talked to the fans and mentioned that it’s the first time Wuss Up was sang by the both of them coz usually its just Kyu Jong. Kyu Jong appeared again on stage and he and grace lee talk about the performance. He said that Young Saeng is the one who suggested that they do the song together to present a special stage for the fans. While they were talking, young saeng suddenly appeared from the side bringing in a huge birthday cake for kyu jong. Fans sang happy birthday to him in Korean..Grace Lee suggested that fans also sing the birthday song in tagalog so we did..Kyu Jong looks really touched and Young Saeng said that he’s crying already..

I can’t remember when this actually happened but there’s a segment also where they pick out two fans to come on stage and receive a gift from kyusaeng. It’s the hand cream and kyusaeng personally applied it to them. Lucky girls..the other one is just 14 years old so saengie said that he’ll treat her as his dongsaeng..hehe..

Then the vid that TSPH made for Kyu Jong & Young Stage was played. The vid turned out really good..It shows clips from their early days till now..it even showed some clips from their fanmeetings. And the song is good too..really good. After the vid was shown kyu even asked what’s the title of the song because he really likes the lyrics and whenever he will hear that song, he will think of that particular moment..the moment with us Triple S..sweet guy. They asked the one who put the video together to come up on stage and they gave her a gift after that.

So just one last song left..u can tell that not only the fans enjoyed the fanmeeting but kyusaeng too..before the last song, kyu really feels like he doesn’t want it to end too..he’s asking if its really the last song..time really fly by so fast when you’re having fun..me personally feel that I don’t want it to end..really don’t want to see them leave..so the last song..Wings of the World..fans sing along with kyusaeng. We were given a piece of paper with the lyrics of the song so that those who really didn’t memorize it can still sing along.

So that’s it..its the end..while they were showing the ending msgs from KJ & YS, we (those who were included in the handshake session) were asked to go out already and fall in line outside..so I wasn’t really able to read the trans of their msgs..

The handshake session is really so fast..weren’t even able to talk to them..just shake their hands..its YS first then KJ..both their hands are soft and warm..Saengie just smile showing his dimples..hehe..really cute..then Kyu nod at me..so I feel he remember me as the one who went up the stage and tasted his halo halo..haha..^^

I felt really lucky last night..first the handshake session, then my question being asked..being on stage with kyusaeng..kyaaa!! really cannot forget this day.

For those Triple S who haven’t seen them in person yet, don’t lose hope. You will have your chance too..just wait.. Before I also didn’t think that I will have this chance of meeting them..but everything just happened..and I tell u..the wait is really worth it. Its really hard not to love these boys.. =)

Heo Young Saeng's latest cyworld update

im bored..so I decided to post something here after such a long time..hehe..so this post is about who?..of course its about my prince Young Saeng!! Recently, this guy is enjoying himself going to different places for vacation!..he just went to Japan & LA recently with Kyu Jong..and after a few days..he posted some pictures on his cyworld and even wrote a msg for all Triple S (yes! He has a cyworld..and no! I don’t know the link to it! T_T)


isn't he just too cute?! first time i saw this..i was smiling like an idiot! how old are you saengi-ah?! ys is the quiet and mysterious one..but looking at this picture..i can feel that he's really fun to be with!! *_*


i also like this picture..ys and kyu (and i bet the other 3 guys too) are very close to Steven Lee..actually through him that Triple S knew that ys and kyu had a vacation..because he mentioned it on his twitter account..


another picture with Steven Lee so cute!! i love that they don't look like an idol here..but just normal people having some fun with their vacation..


don't know who took this shot..but its obvious its not YS! haha..but this pic has such a good feeling to it..after seeing this..don't know why but i just suddenly want to give him a back hug! LOL! *blush*


but this one..i guess i know who took it..its YS..this guy..even before is really very fond of taking pictures..and he really likes to take random ones..like his surroundings..the sky..and most of his pics turns out really great..(saengi-ah, my father is a professional photographer! he can teach you more about photography!! haha!)


one more..and this time..kyu jong as a model! haha..one thing i noticed about kyu jong recently is that he really loves that checkered shirt!! haha..he wore it when they were having a radio guesting, on the airport when they got back from Japan, when he was spotted eating ice cream with Kara's Ji Young and when he had an eye check up! hehe..but he looks good..so its ok.. :)

i also mentioned that saengi also wrote a msg right?..here it is:

Now don’t even have a space for me to write..ke ke

Don’t know since when my supposedly secret cyworld… everyone seems to know it already..;
Then~ thought of just opening it to the public.. –
But everyone seems to visit on their own..ke then don’t open publicly~
Just…don’t hack my password.. otherwise will close cyworld..
Anyway… girls’ pictures.. special pictures.. there are none~

Recently, went to Japan… went to L.A. .. actually also went to Las Vegas for a short period..
Everyone is curious right…? ke ke What did we do.. ke
In Japan, didn’t even take a single photo…ㅠㅠ Just went there to play to our hearts’ content.
In US.. took many memorable photos..
Most importantly, we toured extensively…^ ^
Saw bungee jumping from 108 storey…. with my own eyes!!! ke ke
I cannot comprehend.. – - why spend money to risk your life..;

Everyone is still…curious about what..?
What will happen to KyuJong and I.. keke
..
I also don’t know~~what will become of us..
But..seems like will work out smoothly~~everything..
I’ll let you all anticipate!! But not too much~~

Twitter seems to be very popular.. I still cannot figure out how to use..;;
So..still stuck with cyworld… ^^
Annoying annoying~~

Mo (A sound)..anyway.. don’t be too curious~~
Do not be curious…and invade my privacy~~ ke ke ke ke ke
When you miss me…. when you miss me very much…
Ah~~when you miss watching me performing on the stage~~ that time…
During that time… I might already be dancing and singing already..
When I’m performing…I don’t like to pass my mic to others!!! I’m such a person~~ ke ke
Surely people who want to see me.. will leave comments.. I miss you now!! There are such people .. – -

Greedy monsters!! Wohoho!

Don’t be anxious… Take a break ..As time…goes by..
there will be good news… ^^

Let Me Be The One

Finally! SS501's Let Me Be The One MV is out! i waited for this for so long..i even thought that DSP will not release it anymore..but last July 7, 2010, DSP finally released the much awaited music video!


Credit: shirbogurl4

i read so many comments about this vid..some say they think this is a goodbye video of the boys because of what's happening right now..some cried..some smile..some laugh..etc.

well..what's the use of this blog if im not going to share "my own thoughts" right?..hehe..

well first of all..i already know that this video would be like a history video which will show old and new clips of SS501..because that's what DSP mentioned in their notice..i picture it as like their music video for You're My Heaven or something like that..so i don't know why others say why the MV is like that..we cannot expect it to be like a normal MV..although i quite agree with the others when they say fans (triple s) can make a better one! LOL!

what i love about this mv is that its shows clips from the boys backstage and some bts from the love ya mv. when they're promoting love ya, i wonder how are they like backstage or off cam..are they still like before? do they still have fun together?..i don't know why i questioned that in the first place..but for me, it seems that something's changed upon seeing them on screen during the love ya promotions..that's why i really really wanted to see them at any variety show at that time..just to know if they are still the same..i don't know if they just mature..so their actions are not like before..but seeing this mv made me confirm that nothing's changed..they are still the same adorkable guys i fell in love with..

so for me, this mv is really special..made me realized all the hardships that SS501 went through and the continuous support all Triple S gave and continuously giving them (did u see the sea of green? beautiful isn't it?! ^^)

i don't think that this is a goodbye video but rather a new start..until now, triple s still don't know what will happen..but i still believe that SS501 will be united as one FOREVER.

i will just keep on believing and will support each member on their solo activities (can't wait to see Leader on his new drama - ISWAK) and will wait for the day i will get to see the five of them together again.. ^^

My Love for SS501 is UNBREAKABLE

how will I start?..as of this moment, I feel that im still in a rollercoaster ride..im sure each and every Triple S feel the same way too..these past few days, I prevented myself from commenting on every SS501 issues that’s been coming out..but today..i decided to write what I really feel..

I guess this all started from the Newton Fanmeeting where all SS501 members felt really emotional up to a point that they can’t even speak especially Jungmin who we know is the one who will brought up the atmosphere whenever there is dull and not so good moments within the group.

here's the complete vid of the messages of SS501 to each other and to all Triple S:

I too became really emotional after watching the vid even the ones without English sub..i mean the contract issue is already in my and every Triple S minds at that moment. Before, I don’t have any worries coz I thought once their contracts end they will just sign a new one again..as simple as that..but I was wrong..

When leader said that the Love Ya promotion will be shorter than Love Like This..i admit that I questioned it..why?..they just started promoting..and I’ve waited for that for a very long time..i thought Im going to see them again on shows and that they will promote longer..i have so many questions on my mind but I decided to just keep everything to myself.

After few days, that’s when I really got nervous about their contract..DSP just released a notice that the Love Ya promotions already ended and that they will release a music video for Let Me Be The One (btw, where the hell is it?!) Here is the notice from DSP:

Hello this is DSP.

SS501’s promotional activities for ‘LOVE YA’ has had ended its
run last week on the 13th June. Due to this short promotional period,
we know that fans would surely be feeling very overwhelmed with sadness.
SS501 had debuted on June 8, 2005 through KMTV’s Music Bank,
and so soon, it’s already been 5 years that’s flowed by~

SS501’s contract validation period, as all of you should know,
has had ended on June 7, 2010.

While preparing for this time’s album and carrying out activities
with every member, we had already carried out discussions with one
another. In consideration of their expiry of contract, we had decided
for their ‘Love Ya’ promotional period to last for only about 2~3 weeks.

May it be SS501 or may it be us, none of us is certain or clear
about the future moves, and because of that,
we’re not able to talk about it officially as of yet,
but once we have decided, we will let all TripleS know.

This time’s DESTINATION album’s song inclusive ‘Let me be the one’
will be made into a music video as a form of their comeback period
‘making’, and it will be ready around mid of next week where you could
view it.
For more concrete information, we will post about it again~

To the many TripleS who are feeling very upset about this short
promotional period, we hope that TripleS could feel slightly
less upset after the Let Me Be The One music video is released
as you watch and play it.

Though it’s only been 2 weeks of promotional period, but to our
TripleS who’s given them the biggest accolation — Number 1!!
Thank you for your love and concern towards this DESTINATION album.
In future too, please show your unyielding love no matter what~

Thank you.

After reading this..i said to myself..what will happen now?..but still.. I decided to stay calm..SS501 still continued with their activities even if their contract already expired and that is because of their promise to their fans..i felt so proud to be a Triple S at that time..i will lie if I say that there are no regrets because surely there is..but the understanding is much more powerful than regrets so I decided to just understand what the situation is.

Things got even more complicated…the news came out that not all members can come to the Golden Music Awards in Taiwan, Leader’s charity concert in the Philippines (which I was able to attend btw..and I even saw leader up close on the hotel he was staying at!! Woot! ^_^) and other issues which made Triple S happy, sad, afraid, disappointed, etc..

And then…just like a bomb that just exploded, news came out that leader left DSP and signed with KeyEast. The title itself scared me to death!! This is the article from Allkpop:

Kim Hyun Joong confirmed to leave DSP Entertainment

For the past couple of months, there have been rumors circulating that SS501’s leader Kim Hyun Joong would leave his agency DSP Entertainment once his contract comes to an end.

Well, it’s been confirmed that this one is true after all.
A related source confirmed on the 28th, “Kim Hyun Joong has decided not to renew his contract with DSP Entertainment. … He will move to another agency.” It’s also been reported that Hyun Joong will enter Keyeast (키이스트), an agency known for its prominent actors including Bae Yong Joon, Park Ye Jin, Bong Tae Gyu, Lee Bo Young, Lee Na Young and Hwanhee, so it’s very likely that Hyun Joong’s career will take the acting route.

Due to Kim Hyun Joong’s decision to leave DSPE, there are now questions about the rest of the members of SS501. Many wonder if this will mark the end of SS501, or whether the rest of the members will follow the routes of Shinhwa and g.o.d and complete promotional activities together with Hyun Joong under different agencies.

UPDATE: According to new reports, DSPE hasn’t decided whether SS501 will gain a new member or become a quartet, implying that, although Hyun Joong will be leaving the group, his departure won’t mark the end of SS501. As the rest of the members of SS501 are working on renewing their contracts with DSPE, fans can only hope for the best until an official statement is released.

Stay tuned to allkpop for future information regarding this matter.

I read this early in the morning..and after reading, I was like staring blankly on my computer monitor for I don’t know how long..i realized that time how important SS501 is for me..i got this big lump on my throat the whole time then I decided to read comments which I later on found out ~ hhmm, not a very good idea..Triple S is in a messy situation at that time..some panic and some wanted to assure others that nothing bad will happen..

I really don’t like..in fact I even hate those people who just suddenly bash leader without even knowing what really happened..i mean..he signed with a different company..but never did he say that he will have a solo career and that SS501 will disband..going back to the Newton fanmeet..leader said this: “I know that all of you will be concern and worry about any false rumors or abusive comments that we might get in the future. But don’t worry and just trust us, because we are SS501”. i think he is well aware that this will happen..but why the abusive comments came from other Triple S?..saying leader can’t act..he’s not loyal..how could he do this..etc etc..alright..i'am not blaming those people but i just can't understand why they call themselves Triple S when they just suddenly turned their backs on leader in one day because of this issue! i know some of those bashing came from antis too..i truly understand that..it is because they don't have anything better to do!!..i know leader is old enough to make decisions..and im sure he went through a lot to finally be able to decide on this matter..if later on..we found out that leader indeed will not be joining SS501 anymore..i will still believe that the love for his brothers are still in there..he love all of his members so much..they treat each other as brothers..there are some things we don’t have control over..and being in an idol group is not forever..they will have to separate eventually but the bond and brotherhood will always be there..

More and more rumors came out which complicates the issue more..especially this one:

Words that Jung Min had Personally Told TWTS
2010.06.29 23:04

Credits: HK TS’ blog + (english trans) happiebb / LOVEKIMHYUNJOONG.com

Mal and Baby had first signed with DSP.
It was only at the 5th anniversary
that the five learnt that DSP didn’t want to sign Kyu.
There’s no way SS501 could continue.
Hyun Joong requested that DSP sign with Kyu first before his signing the contract.
DSP refused.
Hyun Joong recommended that Kyu goes to YG.
……
So turned out everyone had to sign with different companies
and come next year,
the various companies to collaborate for them to release an album.
YS and Kyu are currently in Japan.
YS is negotiating the OST of some drama,
Kyu is in discussion with YG.
Mal had said this (same thing) to TS on the plane three times
that the five of them will release an album next year,
The reason why Hyun Joong signs with another company…
IS TO PROTECT THE OTHER FOUR, TO PROTECT SS501, AND TO PROTECT THE FANS.
Coz DSP refused to sign with Kyu…
so Hyun Joong’s helping Kyu to sign with YG,
and Hyun Joong wanted DSP to sign with Kyu by threatening to sign with another agency.

Mal and Baby had initially thought everyone would be renewing their contracts,
so they had gone on ahead and signed first.
Mal further said…. they would be separated for this year…
but next year, they will continue to work together through different companies
YS also said something like that….
that the five of them will continue on like this year after year…
the interpretation is that they would be working together again next year.
Coz so long as they’re missing just one member, that signifies the splitting up of SS501…

So Hyun Joong surfaced first to face everything.


Honestly, when I first read it..i was like...what the?!! Is DSP that damn to not let kyu jong signed with them?..what are they planning to do with the other four? They can’t possibly continue with SS501 with just the four of them!..and I can’t believe Mal will say this kind of delicate information publicly..especially to a fan..i admit I kind of panic after reading..but still, I keep all my thoughts to myself..

another news came out..and this time its about Jungmin..apparently, he signed a contract under Sony Music Taiwan..

[03/07] SS501 Park JungMin signs with Taiwan Sony Music, for his Chinese
Credits to Newsen + sookyeong.wordpress.com

SS501 Park JungMin is said to have signed up with Taiwan Sony Music.

An official revealed, “Park JungMin has signed an exclusive contract with Taiwan Sony Music. This was done before Kim HyunJoong moved to Bae YongJoon’s agency Key East.”

It seems that currently Park JungMin is looking at activities in the Chinese entertainment market with the move to sign with Taiwan Sony Music. With news that Park JungMin and Kim HyunJoong will be doing their solo activities, there are great interests as to the future plans for the rest of the members Heo YongSaeng, Kim KyuJong and Kim HyungJoon.

Meanwhile, on SBS Music High radio show, Kim HyungJoon who is the DJ on the show said, “In the future, I will continue DJ-ing”.


i told myself..ok so maybe jungmin will focus on solo activities too..but i know that they will come back together as five soon..maybe next year?..so will the sub-group just release their 2nd album?..or maybe they will also focus on solo activities..those are the questions in my mind after this news came out..and then..just after few minutes since it came out..i found out Mal left a msg on DSP website..

Hello, Jungmin here..^^ @ 2010-07-03, 1:51:49 PM

Annyeonghaseyo? SS501's JungMin here.
Though I have been sending my greetings here often like this, I often wrote it then erased, wrote it then erased...
But in the end I've decided to do away with that thought!!
In this current situation like now, what if my entry causes a huge impact on my members..
I'd thought so like this, but no matter what, if I am to write something at least, it'd be good,
and so I am writing this piece today.

First of all!!
SS501's album promotions this time round has had finally come to a close after Taiwan's Golden Melody Awards.
There were really many people who came to give support.
From Taiwan too, from HongKong too, even from Japan too~, and also from China~~ Our TripleS!!
If the five of us could do a stage together, it would have been really wonderful.. Thought of it like this.
Thank you for having gone down to give support and help~!
(I want to say thank you first.)

Let me begin to start talking with the conclusion,
about the contract issue of us SS501 members,
though of course, there are huge agency companies domestic and foreign waving their hands to us and that's a fact,
but they've all been dismissed.

Also, right at this moment, up until now, I'm not signed on to any agency companies and not leaving for any places,
although there are many invitations coming from everywhere, I've not had replied to them as of now.
After discussing with our members then I'll give a reply... That will be the circumstance where I'll only give replies.

If I were to sign on to any contract, I will let all of you know officially.
(Before I make any contract signings, all our administration will be done under DSP..!)

Eum...Before this time's promo activities ended, there were many meetings held together,
with each of our members, with bosses (inclusive boss' wife) with managers, many discussions held together.
Though the 5 of us are supposed to discuss more amongst ourselves..!
We did so to the appropriate extend.
The future moves problems have of course doubtlessly became an issue on each of our side,
but for the sake of SS501's future persisting activities and albums, concerts to be done with the name of SS501...
I'm referring to our future activities.
Because to have to be singers who must have events is a no-thankyou..!!

Though I still have much more to write...I'll just write this much first.

Actually I was having some late nap, but then I woke up taken aback...TT TT
I was afraid that members would get shocked too, so I gave them calls, but they didn't pick up~~!
Despite so, we'll still be carrying out meetings nonetheless~ Will see you then~~ though so,
Because there have been many upsetting news..At this kind of time..I'm filled with an apologetic heart very much..TT TT


Ah! Also in future too, I'll still continue to come to our homepage,
you'll see me right here^^
Will continue to leave entries often..!!

정민입니다..^^ @ 2010-07-03, 1:51:49 PM

안녕하세요? SS501 정민입니다.
자주 인사드리려고 했는데, 글을 쓰다 지우다 쓰다 지우다...
결국 오늘 까지 와버렸네요!!
지금 상황에 괜히 나의 글이 멤버들에게 해가 되면 어쩌나..하고 있었는데,
아무래도 이야기를 하는게 좋을 것 같아서 오늘은 글을 씁니다.


일단!!
SS501의 이번 앨범 활동은 대만의 금곡상 이후로 마무리되었습니다.
정말 많은 분들이 와주셨어요.
대만에서도, 홍콩에서도, 일본에서도~,또 중국에서도~~우리 트리플에스!!
다섯명이 무대했으면 정말 좋았을텐데..라고 생각했습니다.
와주시고 응원해주셔서 감사했어요~!
(먼저, 감사하다는 말 하고 싶었어요.)


결론부터 말씀드리자면,
SS501로서 멤버 전원의 계약은

지금의 회사는 물론, 국내외의 대형기회사에서 제안이 있었던 것은 사실이지만,
모두 불발되었습니다.


그리고 저는 아직까지 아무 곳과 계약을 맺지 않고 있는 상태이며,
여러 곳에서 제안이있었지만 아직 대답하지 않았습니다.
멤버들과 상의후 대답하겠다...라고 까지 대답해 놓은 상태입니다.



계약을 맺는다면 여러분들께 정식으로 알려드리겠습니다.
(계약을 맺기전까지는 DSP에서 모든 관리를 해주고 있습니다..!)



음...이번 활동을 마무리하기전 회의들도 있었고,
각 멤버별, 사모님과의 면담 역시 있었습니다.
5명이 좀 더 많은 이야기를 나누어야겠지만..!
충분히 가능하며 해야하게하는 것.
거취문제는 물론 이제는 개인적인 문제임이 되어버린 것이 틀림없지만,
그에 앞서 SS501의 지속적인 활동을 위해서 SS501로서의 앨범과 콘서트등...의

활동에 대한 이야기.
이벤트성 가수는 노땡큐니까..!!



아직
더 쓸 글들이 많지만...일단 접어두겠습니다.


실은 늦잠자다가 깜짝놀라 깬거라...ㅠㅠ
멤버들 놀랬을까 전화해봤더니 전화가 안되네요~~!
안그래도 계속 회의하자~~만나자~~이랬는데,
슬픈소식들도있고해서..가뜩이나 이럴 때에..미안한 마음 가득입니다..ㅠㅠ




아! 그리고 앞으로도 홈페이지는 계속 열려있는다고 하니,
여기서 계속 볼 수 있을꺼예요^^
글 자주 올리고 하겠습니다..!!

aigoo!! what is happening?..news really is getting out of hand! i feel so proud of jungmin to make an effort to clear things up to not further worry all Triple S..this is the time that all my worries were gone..at least i know that they all consult each other and that they really want to continue being together despite being in different companies..SS501 indeed is Five Forever As One (i never doubt that fact in the first place!)

ok so today, i read an article that says DSP confirmed that from the four members who doesn't sign any contracts yet, one of them will not sign a contract with them..i will not worry about that thing for now..i'll stop here..i didn't even realize that this post is so long already!

for now, i will continue waiting for an official announcement as to what will happen..i will forever believe in SS501!! i'll end this post with a very nice fanvid from kate(phtriples)..this vid made me really emotional..listen to what the song says..because its true..our love for the five of them and SS501's love for each other and to all Triple S is UNBREAKABLE. "When all this is over..our love still remains.."

SS501 5-year Flashback - Live Mix - NG Cut

Just want to share this amazing video compilation of some of the NG cuts of SS501 during live performances..thanks to TivonaHu for doing this. This is a really great compilation..it just proves that whatever it is that these guys do, it will just make u love them even more…I will list down the mistakes I noticed in this video..but watch the video first.


Credit: TivonaHu

Did u spot all the mistakes?..hehe..here’s what I noticed:

0.18 jungmin dropping his mic, picked it up and made it appear as part of the dance..(lol jungmin-ah..u think we didn’t notice it?..hehe..)

0.29 kyu jong’s voice cracked during a live performance of “everything”..(don’t worry kyu, triple s doesn’t mind it at all!!)

0.38 hyungjun doesn't know what he’s going to do with his hands..(i can tell that he’s really nervous so that little action seems so awkward!..^_^)

0:44 leader’s voice cracked..not that much noticeable though compared to kyu..but his nervous expression gave it away…(leader, everyone makes that kind of mistake..so don’t worry about it!!)

0.52 haha..now it’s jungmin’s turn..his voice also cracked..its almost as same as kyu jong..but he just pretended nothing happened! (3 thumbs up Mal!!)

1.00 kyu collided with one of the dancers..hehe..this one made me laugh.. (hehe..kyu! watch ur step..^_^)

1.08 jungmin forgot the dance step for ASCFY..(haha..his expression here is just priceless!! can’t stop laughing just by looking at his face!)

1.15 young saeng got scared because of the fireworks
1:17 leader forgot the dance step
1:22 laughing at himself…(or maybe he’s laughing at leader too!! Hyunsaeng!! LOL)

1:29 now im not sure at this one…is it on young saeng?..because his voice is fine..so I think it has something to with kyu..he shouted..hAahh!..his voice is so loud..it can be heard even without a mic.

1:36 baby turned to face the front stage..but realized he wasn’t supposed to..(only jungmin and leader are supposed to face front)..hehe..he turned around again realizing his mistake..and I know (even I can’t see his face) that saengi is smiling again..(saengi: aigoo our maknae!! Hehe)

1:49 leader messed up the L.O.V.E hand sign!! Aigoo leader!! (haha..look closely at leader’s hand..this one cracked me up!!)

1:57 haha..baby’s clever way of fixing his accessories..baby is so smart..he was able to make it appear as part of the choreography..(I will never notice this if not for this vid..hehe..)

2:01 oppss not a mistake! LMAO!! I just love saengi’s look at that part! *faints LOL

2:06 jungmin’s blank expression when he forgot the steps!! Another priceless expression of our dear Mal!! (his facial expression is stuck in my head! LOL!)..wait why is saengi smiling?..did baby forgot the steps too?..he always smile at his or other member's mistake..cute saengi!!

2:18 LOL! fail!!..mistake in choreography, blocking, etc.LOL! (laughing so hard at baby and saengi on the left side..what are u two doing?..)

2:26 leader’s voice cracked (its ok leader!!..*pats his back*..hehe)

2:32 baby got confused with the dance step
2:36 baby dropped something
2:37 he picked up what he dropped..(aigoo..using the choreo to save whatever it is that he dropped..hehe..is that a watch?..)

2:45 wireless mic malfunction..it really looks weird..the mic hanging like that?..lol

2:54 another wireless mic malfunction..(you can see saengi is really worried for baby..i can imagine him thinking..”oh our poor maknae..don’t worry ur still doing great!!”)

3:07 now this is my favorite of all!! Young Saeng daydreaming that’s why he missed his cue! (LOL, youngsaeng-ah, what are u thinking?..are u inlove or something?..or maybe u miss leader..and ur mind is in outer space at that time..i bet ur talking to each other using ur minds! LMAO!! Mianhe..i just love hyunsaeng that much!!)

3:19 now this is funny..poor young saeng!!..bumps..ooppss..bumps again!! I bet youngsaeng felt dizzy after that..even the dancer finds it funny and can’t help but smile!!

3:29 young saeng dropped something (is that a watch?..a gold one?..waahh!!)

3:38 hehe..baby using the choreography again to save young saeng’s watch!! How sweet..(I saw the whole performance..after that..where they were facing the back..u can see ys looking at baby as if saying, ys:u got it? baby: yeah.. ys:good! That’s really expensive!! Hehe..LMAO!!

3:43 young saeng’s voice cracked..not that much noticeable though..but u can see that he made a mistake coz of that smile!! Hehe..so cute! I hope he makes a lot of mistakes in the future so that he will always smile like that! (haha..crazy much?)

3:57 now just as I thought that its all over…jung min’s action cracked me up once again!!haha..adorkable!

Waahh..that’s a lot..hehe..but there’s still some which are not included in this vid..so, who do u think made the most number of mistakes?..hehe..i noticed that they made the most number of mistakes on ASCFY..maybe because of changes in choreography and such..but they are always cute even with that simple mistakes..

Don’t u just miss them more?!! Can’t wait for the 501day!! less than a month! Yay!!

FIVE AS ONE
-----------

As your music fills the room
I'm thinking of your smile
As your warmth touch our hearts
Oh, let this be the start

You bring us hope to know
That dreams come true
And I'm grateful
'Cause of you

FIVE STARS light up the sky
Our voice soars high
Wish it brings us close to (you)
Green lights fill the crowd
As you call out
Singing na na na

The road to get to where you are
Is not easy we know
But the joy as you inspire
Tells us there is something more

You bring us hope to know
That dreams come true
And I'm grateful
'Cause of you

FIVE STARS light up the sky
Our voice soars high
Wish it brings us close to (you)
Green lights fill the crowd
As you call out
Singing na na na na

And we know
That the time will come
Five as one, we will shout
Loud and proud

FIVE STARS light up the sky
Our voice soars high
Wish it brings us close to (you)
Green lights fill the crowd
As you call out
Singing na na na na

Review of SS501 Songs Part 2 (Rebirth)

Love Like This
This is the only song they released out of the Rebirth Mini Album. I love this song so much and it has a special place in my heart because this is the very first song they promoted the time I am a Triple S already. I’m not yet a triple s when they were promoting their other songs so this song is really quite memorable. I still remember all those weekends when im always online just to watch live streaming of music shows (Music Bank, Music Core & Inkigayo) because I know that they will be performing live. The most memorable one is the Comeback performance in Music Core..a lot of Triple S are anticipating their comeback performance. I was watching the live streaming while chatting with other triple s online. And then, when they appear on stage..whoa! I think im going to have a nervous breakdown! Haha..

They started with the intro with the L.O.V.E <3 hand sign..it’s quite funny coz most triple s who watched the performance didn’t get it the first time..it’s just after watching it again that most found out that they did make a L.O.V.E <3 hand sign..hehe..it’s all baby’s fault!! who would have thought that’s he’s trying to show L with that cute hand of his? When the screen showed saengi..my heart beats faster!! Haha..he looks so cute with that peace (ooppss I mean V) sign!

And then the fan chants begin..really proud of Korean Triple S because the fan chants at that time is just so loud. They even manage to squeeze in “Heo Young Saeng saengil chukha hae!” (Happy Birthday Heo Young Saeng) to their fan chant.

Here’s a vid of their Comeback Performance in Music Core

Only One Day
I already fell in love with this song the first time I heard it. the intro is just so beautiful. Everytime I hear SS501 perform this live, I always have goosebumps. This is the perfect song to listen to when you’re emo-ing!! lol. I really love jung min’s voice in this song and of course I would never forget saengi..i really love his part of this song..whenever I hear him sing, I always feel like he’s hurting..the part ♪I wish I can bring you back again ♪ and the ♪ nul saranghaaeeee ♪ is just ♥

Here’s my favorite live performance of this song..i believe that this performance is just perfect!! This video also includes a live performance of Love Like This. 

Green Peas / 완.두.콩.
Now this song is just special..know why?..because it is especially written for all triple s. how can u not love SS501?..they are just sweet towards their fans..i love the lyrics of this song because all members wrote it themselves for triple s..so why green peas?..because fans of SS501 are also called green peas (aside from Triple S) it is because green is the official color of SS501 and whenever there are shows/concerts and all triple s are carrying & waving green light sticks, it looks like green peas.

Here is the English translation of Green Peas provided by GENESIS @ Soompi forums.

One summer in my eyes, was a shining green star
our love for each other began to burn

In the night sky like green stars they appeared twinkling
and it was just so lovely...
The moment we came together, the promises we made to each other together
that all the times we'd be together form then on...
let's protect those forever

When we become that star
anywhere in the world, we'll always shine down on you
24/7 from Monday to Sunday night
We'll become happy together

I know of only one who makes me laugh
I know of only one who makes me cry
You're always the one to stay by my side

No matter who says what, there's one thing that doesn't change
our love for each other is forever

Always like a star, shining
it is our time together that so brightly sparkles forever
our precious green stars

Thank you all for your love, we swear to you to love you
All for you

When we become that star
anywhere in the world, we'll always shine down on you
24/7 from Monday to Sunday night
We'll become happy together

One more time!

When we become that star
anywhere in the world, we'll always shine down on you
24/7 from Monday to Sunday night
We'll become happy together

We, together.... will go on being happy~

Wasteland
Was I able to mention already that I love all songs in the Rebirth album?..hehe..if I were to rank these 5 songs, I think that I will have a really difficult time..so about Wasteland, I love the chorus!! I love how I can really distinguish each and every member’s voices in this song..like in the chorus where u won’t hear saengi’s voice and then it will suddenly popped up at the second line. Whoa..crazy much? Hehe. I fell in love with this song more after seeing them performed it on the Encore Concert in Seoul. And now, im not only addicted to the song but im addicted to the dance too!!

Here’s a fancam of Wasteland taken from the Encore Concert in Seoul

Obsess
Same with wasteland, they also performed this song on the Encore Concert in Seoul. Even though they will only perform obsess & wasteland twice (for the two nights Encore Concert) but I feel that they put lots of efforts into it..i love the dance for this song too!! Actually when I first listen to all five songs in the rebirth album, this is the first song that caught my attention..maybe because of the English part in the chorus..
♪ I'm obsessed with you, wanna be with you~
naegen niga neomu so good, so good girl!
I'm obsessed with you, wanna be with you
cheomjeom teo ppajyeo-ppajyeoga ♪


Ok now here’s a video taken from the Encore Concert in Seoul..this one is focused on young saeng!! ^_^

Credit: hkkatrina’s YT Channel

So there, all five songs in the Rebirth Album..all five songs are great and the this album is just Jjang!! Still waiting for the release of their new album on 5.01. really hope that the new album will surpass what achievements they had for this rebirth album. Triple S will always be here to support SS501. ♥♥♥ Triple S & SS501 Together Forever ♥♥♥

Review of SS501 Songs

I’m not being biased or anything but I really love almost all songs of SS501. I just love how their voices compliment each other..if u ask me..i will definitely say that I love young saeng’s voice the most (now im being biased here..hehe)..well but who doesn’t right? I really love his sweet and powerful voice..and now after watching various persona performances..i can say that he was able to show his versatility on stage..we all know him as the one most suited for ballads right?..but he proved that he can sing rock & rap songs as well..the second one I like (we are talking about their voices ok..) is hyungjun’s..and then followed by jungmin, kyu jong and hyun joong..here is my personal review of some of SS501 songs:

Because I’m Stupid
As I’ve said in my previous post..this is the very first song of SS501 that I came to know. I first heard it while watching Boys over Flowers..at first I didn’t know that SS501 is the one who sang it. I didn’t like the song at first but after hearing them performed it live..i fell in love with it..

U R Man
If the previous song is the first song of SS501 that I heard, this song is the first song I saw them performed live. I didn’t know much about them then..my first impression of them is that they look matured..i even asked myself how old they were at that time..maybe because of the outfits they have during U R Man performances. I especially love the “take off jacket” & “remove dandruff” move..& I always love young saeng’s expression while taking off his jacket during the last part of the song..where he will always make this cute pout. Haha..biased much? Ok here’s one vid of them performing U R Man live.

And here’s one bonus video of Kim Hyun Joong’s U R Man rehearsal



Never Again
Now this is the song that made me fall in love with saengi’s voice..i can still remember the first time hearing this. Its quite memorable coz while listening to it, my mind is thinking of a scene in a fanfic I was reading at that time. Actually the author of the fanfic is the one who mentioned this song. First time hearing, I fell in love with it right away. Especially this part: ♪ I don’t wanna love again…baby I don’t wanna love again ♪..whoa saengi’s voice makes me melt! lol! And also baby’s part: ♪ oohh I don’t wanna love again…I don’t..i don’t..i don’t baby I don’t wanna love again can’t you see my darling ♪
I always listen to this song when im emo-ing!! Haha..

You Are My Heaven
This song is one of my favorite. I love how their voices compliment each other. I love how each member were given the part that suites him the best. kyu jong’s voice at the beginning is just so good..and then baby’s and leader’s rap to jung min’s saranghae to the nth level (lol..get what I mean) and of course I will never forget saengi..his soothing voice completes the whole song. Here is my favorite live performance of You Are My Heaven. If im not mistaken this was from the Showcase with Triple S concert last 2009.

A Song Calling For You
The time when I was in the point of “getting to know” more of SS501, I saw lots of videos for this song on youtube. this song is really cute..and the mv is cute too (watch it on my previous post) i personally think that this is the song where they made a lot of mistakes during performances..haha..i love watching those cute little mistakes that the fans were able to capture while SS501 is performing this song. so who do u think made the most number of mistakes for this song?..hehe..

Again
Also one of my favorite. Honestly the first time I saw this song title on youtube, I didn’t bother to watch it..hehe..i thought its the same as Never Again but later on found out that it’s a different song..what I can’t forget whenever I listen to this song is the scene in SOS where young saeng cried because of that little boy who he got really close to. A family will adopt that little boy and they (especially ys) are really sad because they will be separated..that’s a sad scene..young saeng locked himself in the other room crying while this song is playing in the background. T_T Here’s my favorite live performance of this song. Again, taken from the Showcase with Triple S mini concert.

DejaVu
I love the dance!! so love it! I think that their choreography for this song is the best. I always love it whenever they performed this live. The last part is just awesome! I also love the part where baby will jump over leader. This song really shows their charisma on stage.

Ok I think I will stop this for now..there are still loads of SS501 songs that I didn’t mention..this is just the 1st part..hehe..i will also be posting a separate one for the songs in the Rebirth Album..love all the five songs there.

What? Why? When? How? Who?

Haha..does the title confused you?..well its just yesterday that I decided to make my own blog. This entry will be like an introduction of what this blog will be all about.

WHAT:
When I first came across the question of what title I want for this blog..i was like..”erm..what will I write?” so then I thought..this is my blog, this is where I write anything and everything I want based on my own thoughts..so there..i have my title already.. ♥♥♥My Own Thoughts♥♥♥

Initially, I wanted this blog to be dedicated to SS501 (I love them!)..but I think there’s a lot of bloggers out there already..so I decided that I will just write anything I want…whether it is about SS501 or any other group but this blog I think may be about KPOP in general and my own random thoughts.

WHY:
Because I love KPOP! These past few months, my life just started to revolve around it. Although there will be times that I will put random thoughts..but expect this blog to be filled with kpop stuff.

WHEN:
I think I started to know kpop when my Korean bosses performed a dance number in our Company Christmas Party last 2007. They performed Tell Me by theWondergirls. That is the first time I actually enjoy and listen to a kpop song..and their dance steps was really cute..so I went and search for the Wondergirls..

HOW:
Well, Internet of course!! I started watching youtube videos of the wondergirls..i came to know their song Nobody and I loved it..(right now..im getting tired listening to that song! lol) after that.. I started to be even more familiarized with other kpop songs.

WHO:

So I mentioned already that the first kpop group I know is the Wondergirls..but then..i got to know SS501! Ok let me share to you how..

So I think many of you are already familiar with the Korean Drama Boys over Flowers right?..i watched it..not just because I love Meteor Garden and want to watch the Korean version of it but also because this one guy caught my attention..Kim Hyun Joong. Im not going to write any more detailed things about BOF, I will just say that I really love it.

Because of wanting to get to know more about Kim Hyun Joong, I searched for his name in the Internet. I came across an idol group named SS501. at first I thought..whoa, he belongs to an idol group..i got so excited I want to see him as a singer..(because he’s too quiet and all in BOF) and then when I searched for SS501..i found out (or so I thought) that they a 3-member group.

The first song of SS501 I listened to is Because I’m Stupid. I was really confused at that time..coz im looking for Kim Hyun Joong but he’s no where to be seen. Later, I found a rehearsal video of Kim Hyun Joong dancing to U R Man. Whoa..i can still remember the feeling when I first saw him dance..i didn’t know he had it in him..when I searched for some more videos of U R Man..i saw those 3 guys again..i was like “where the hell is Kim Hyun Joong?” haha..

The rest is history..haha..too long for me to say..but I was able to find out..that SS501 is actually a 5-member group and that the three members, Heo Young Saeng, Kim Kyu Jong and Kim Hyung Jun(honestly it took me a while to realize that it’s actually a different name! haha) formed a sub unit and released an album without the other two members Kim Hyun Joong (because he was busy acting in BOF) and Park Jung Min (because he’s doing a musical).

So there, I started to listen to their songs, watch them in old variety shows they appeared in (Thank You for Waking us Up, Thank You for Raising Us, Idol World, M! Pick, etc.) Honestly, at first I didn’t bother to focus my attention to the other guys. My eyes are only glued on Hyun Joong whenever I watch them. But after knowing the five of them, I realized that each has their own charm and charisma. I hate to say this but after knowing them, I’m more of a young saeng biased now..i even forgot that I once liked hyun joong..i really adore Heo Young Saeng. His prince image (he’s a bad boy now..hehe), his voice, his signature moves, his smile..everything about him.

As much as I wanted this blog not to focus on SS501 alone, I think I will have a really difficult time..i love them so much. Hehe.. aside from SS501, I also like U-Kiss, 2AM & Kara. I do appreciate most of the Korean songs..but let me just say this…I am a PROUD TRIPLE S!
