It’s time to depart for the event!
At 1:10pm I got on the bus and departed for the Children’s Grand Park Dome Art Hall.
There was a lot of snow left all around the venue and it was very cold…
After entering the venue, there was a table set up to place presents that you wanted to pass on to the three members. There were lots of presents piling up on the table that were filled with lots of love from all the fans. Jaejoong… Next time you open your presents you need to ask your older sisters for help okay? *laugh*
After placing my present too, I entered the main area of the venue~
It was different from the usual concert domes as it was a small venue, and the closeness with the stage and the audience was felt immediately. It felt good.
And then the live started.
With dark and causal clothes, the three appeared on stage.
The first song was…
EMPTY
They raised their voices at the right moments which really got the audience excited~
Ready Go (Ready Go)
After the song finished, it was talk time~.
JJ: It’s been a long time hans’t it?
At this time, fans had prepared to sing happy birthday to Jaejoong. But as they started singing the song it didn’t work out well and it wasn’t loud enough.
Jaejoong, didn’t you hear the happy birthday song? You didn’t seem to react to it…
JJ: Could we have some water please?
Although discouraged, the fans gave the signal again and started singing the second chorus. This time, Yoochun started to sing with us too.
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday dear jaejoong~~
Happy birthday to you
Host: How was it? How do you feel?
JJ: I have to say…. Surprises are really great!
Host: So, shall we sit down then?
JJ: Umm…we still haven’t received our water yet.
Host: After the new year opened, you said that you will try harder and work harder this year. Is there anything you feel that you just have to do this year?
JJ: Please answer Yoochun san! (He directed the question to Yoochun)
YC: What I want to do…Umm.. (fans are giggling) Why is everyone laughing~~~~ It’s been quite a while since we’ve been speaking Japanese so…. Compared to last year, with the three members I want more funny…funny? Enjoyable??? More performances that are funny, and also have more activities in Japan although none of this is decided yet.
Host: Their Rooms music essay was released on the 24th in Korea but in Japan it’s being released on the 30th right?
JJ: Yea.
Host: There are still some people who haven’t purchased it, so could you explain it a little bit.
JJ: Yes, please answer Junsu san! (he again directed the question)
JS: Speaking Japanese after a long time I’m feeling a little bit nervous..Anyway. Their Rooms is an album that is in the form of a book. What’s different about this album is that all the songs have been produced and composed by the three of us. So we feel that this album is the best in that sense.
Host: This album ha become best seller in Korea right. There were about 150,000 pre ordered copies. Are there people here who have not gotten it yet but are determined to get it?
JJ: There are some people who haven’t raised their hands…
Host: Previously the fans wished you for your birthday. Jaejoong’s birthday was on the 26th right?
JJ: Yes, that’s right.
Host: Happy birthday.
JJ: Thank you very much.
Host: How did you spend your birthday?
JJ: My birthday~~~ Both Junsu and Yoochun had things scheduled for that day. They had work so we couldn’t spend time together in the evening. So at night it was around 12am? 1am? Around that time the members… Ah! No wait. Junsu came at 9pm. Yoochun came at 11pm. After gathering together late at night, a small party..
Host: Seems that the three of you have a good friendship. A private party too.
JJ: Yea. Counting this party, up until now since I was born this has been my third birthday party. Before when we lived together in dorms, within the dorms it wasn’t really anything special.
YC: Since it’s been three times, Jaejoong is now 3 years old.
JJ: My birthday party… Actually, it turned out quite big. I invited people from the office too, and some of my other friends….
YC: Some friends from Japan came too.
JJ: Yea..they came from Japan too.
Host: Around how many people were there?
JJ: 30? 40?
Host: What kind of place was it at?
JJ: Kind of a combination of a club and a bar… The boss of that place and I are acquaintances and we know each other quite well so he gave me a discount.
YC: Was it free?
JJ: I paid for the alcohol myself.
Host: This time did you receive any presents that were memorable?
JJ: I treated everyone to alcohol right? But in reverse I got a lot of alcohol as presents from the fans. In one of my rooms at home it’s full of alcohol.
Host: To last you another year?
JJ: No. Maybe around 10 years…
Host: Then, maybe you’ll get snacks next year. (T/N: snacks that go along with alcohol)
JJ: No no~~ Snacks are a little bit~~ One time I tweeted that I wanted to eat Japanese ramen to which tons was sent to the office, it was a little bit problematic. Didn’t have a place to put it all…
Host: Next, Yoochun san. You were in the drama Sungkyunkywan Scandal and you attended the 2010 Drama awards on KBS. There you received awards for best new actor, best couple award, and the netizen award too….
YC: I’m embarrassed~~~ even when receiving it it didn’t seem to be right for me.
Host: The drama was difficult wasn’t it?
YC: It was fun~
Host: What is a memorable episode that you remember?
YC: I mentioned this in other interviews, but it was when Jaejoong brought fried chicken to the set.
JS: Fried chicken???
Host: Fried chicken!!*laugh*
YC: We didn’t come to Japan often, and didn’t get a chance to visit Japanese pubs and such… So Jaejoong brought fried chicken and came to support me but on that day Jaejoong’s car…
JJ: Got into a little accident. (Seems that when he was returning he got into a small accident)
YC: This is why I was able to receive the best new actor award.
They then sang for us again.
Be My Girl
After the song was over, it was the event present time.
Junsu: Gucci sunglasses and necklace. (Junsu actually had only the sunglasses but he also presented a necklace like Jaejoong)
Yoochun: A photo taken with everyone after the concert last year.
Jaejoong: His favorite mirror for 2 years and an accessory set (ring, bracelet, earrings)
For people that won these presents, they got the chance to take a picture with the members.
This is probably a segment in this whole program when all the fans get very excited.
I really wanted Jaejoong’s presents to be given out separately. I was screaming for them to do that! Because if it’s separated then the probability of winning one is higher!!
Jaejoong’s accessory~~ I really wanted it~~~~
At the very least, I got a picture of the presents from the person who won.
Here it is! I’m jealous~
Then it was time for Chajatta.
After the song finished, Jaejoong said, “usually we would continue on to the next song but we want to say some last shout outs to all of you.”
JS: Being able to finally meet all of you has made me very happy. This is probably because all of you are with us today, but for a moment I actually felt like I was in Japan. So I get this kind of feeling, and this really makes me want to go back to Japan. I’ve been thinking about this for awhile, I want to create a place that we can go and meet everyone again and it would make me happier if we can meet again in Japan. I’ll work harder and clear everything so I can meet everyone faster. Today was very enjoyable with all of you and it was happiness. Thank you very much.
JJ: Last year, we performed during A-nation and we had a concert, and it’s only been a year but it feels like it’s been after 3 or 4 years since then. It’s been long, huh. It’s been long but there have been things we’ve had to resolve. Anyway for the time being, we will work harder in America and in Asia, and also in Korea. And also so we can meet everyone faster in Japan we will work even harder. So please wait for us.
YC: We will be waiting~~~♪
JJ: Don’t forget us~~~~♪
They sang it to us a little.
YC: I really want to eat ramen from Sapporo right now. As was said earlier, nothing has been announced yet and we don’t know ourselves either, but this year if possible we will start activities in Japan again. Please treat us well!
And then YC’s last words:
It’s time for the last song!! Is everyone ready and OK~~~~~??
Finally, the last song was Empty again.
It was a talk show and music stage of approximately one hour. I feel like the details from their talk are pouring out of me but this was the overall feel of it. Touch event details, to be continued★☆★

This had me cracking up.
They so cute! happy to see alot of JP still support them!!!
Those gifts from JJ are really precious. I think it was not just a gift to the fan who won, but was the sincere expression of his heart to all the fans in Japan who he genuinely loves and misses. It is really touching.
I want Jae’s ring! /envious
me too!
