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!
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.. ^^
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.
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. Source: Newsen
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.."
Comeback concept photos of SS501 were released in the DSP website 12:00 midnight on 501day!!
Here it is!!
kyaaa!! these pictures just made me more excited for their comeback..so even if the album is delayed..they still released something special on 501day..for me..that's already enough.. ^_^
Happy 501day to SS501 and to all Triple S!! SS501 and Triple S Together Forever!! ^_^
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.
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!!
i just like to share this song that a triple s from the Philippines wrote. and take not..she even sang it herself! the first time i heard it, i was totally speechless..all triple s can relate to the message of this song..it's just so perfect..3 thumbs up to Zee Panganiban of TSPH for being able to make this beautiful song..i wish one day, SS501 will hear this and know how much triple s loves them..
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 ♪

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 ♥♥♥
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.
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!
