I think they just lease their cars or trade the old to a new one, so they only spend less.
But I notice in some sites, the words “flaunting” and “show off” their wealth are widely use nowadays when they refer to JYJ and “down to earth” referring to their idols…lol, who doesn’t want beautiful things if you can afford it!
Ah…”flaunting” and “show off”. Well, I hope they continue to flaunt and show off ’til the cows come home. They have earned every right to flaunt and show off. Working hard for your money and finally getting paid for it, allows one to live large. Just ask Oprah. You earn it!
Maybe when the day comes, and their favorite is able to afford to, they will be flaunting and showing off.
@BAF
Yes, you’re right, just ask Oprah…
For me, house and a car are basic necessities, and a recording studio is needed for their work, I still don’t consider it flaunting ( ah, maybe because the cars are of luxurious brand, but even our local celebrities here have also that cars (second hand most of the times) and to think my country is poorer than SK.
I knew they’d use words like “show off” or “flaunting” the day I saw the picture of their new apartment….
Looks like they’re still living in denial or “trying” to not accept the defeat…
@ Jeje2206
they just don’t want to accept or maybe you’re right that they are in self-denial that their idols are poorly paid but it’s alright with them if the CEO and executives are the ones getting richer, their share of stocks are getting higher…they don’t care, anyway their idols are “down to earth”and “very humble” lol.
Ain’t nothing wrong with being ‘rich and humble’. It’s going to be a rude awakening for those “who are too blind to see.” What I would like someone to ask these ‘unseeing ones’, why don’t you go stalk the CEOs and executives of these companies, see how THEY live, then come back and tell us how ”down to earth and humble” they are.
oh i did notice jae’s hair too… and his broad chest 🙂 He looks so manly! Gosh I’m blushing while saying this [considering Jae is almost like a son to me given our age difference]. Good thing my husband is still asleep, hehehe…
@marielovesJYJ Thanks for that assurance…jaejoong’s appeal as well as Junsu & Chun not only goes beyond age, but across cultures as well. I’m feeling less awkward now 🙂
@jyj1214
lol..i can relate to you– the Jae-husband thing, but i think my husband has nothing to worry about because there’s no way I can meet a Jae-like in my real life …. only in our JYJ world!
@kris that’s right, my husband has nothing to worry about…although its funny coz i kept lots of JYJ OR tvxq5 [old pics] inside my cabinet too. My husband and boys were all so surprized with this. My husband just shook his head in disbelief on how hooked I am. I told him though that its my first time ever- in my whole 44 years to get this hooked to an artist. And Korean artists at that – since I’m a Filipina. Must be part of mid-life, hahaha…but he allows me to enjoy my deep admiration to JYJ just the same. My 2 boys in fact update me in case they come across news or youtube of JYJ . My son posted in his FB my crush on JYJ :-)…BLUSH!!!!
@jyj1214
seems we have so much in common, I’m Filipina too and have 3 kids. Thank God my youngest daughter falls deeply in love with Junsu, and this is the first time that we agree in terms of music (she’s a Taylor Swift,/Paramore kind of thing). My son has just no comment, he can bear listening my TVXQ/JYJ music, but don’t ever let him heard a Justin Beiber, even in TV, he’d immediately change channel if it’s JB. Since I share my computer with my daughter so my desktop background is always Junsu, TOO LOVE is like her national anthem…
Nice meeting you here…
@jyj1214
@kris
hahaha!! I am filipino too in my mid-30s and jaejoong is my “secret guilty pleasure” none of my real life friends know who TVXQ , JYJ and jaejoong are…as in!! totally they don’t even know they exist (hehehehe!!) i thought i was weird coz i liked them… I am so glad there are other middle age titas who like jae too 🙂 r u guys in manila too?? I dont care if they think I am baduy i still love him anyway 🙂
@kris @jyj1214
I can relate with you. Same situation here but I’m so much far away from Korea: 9000 km is enough to reassure my husband!
He sympathize with me while I’m sighing in front of the PC monitor. Meanwhile he knows with certainty that my infatuation is platonic and he is willing to share my real love for him with ‘cybernetic love affair’ with Jeajoong, despite my 43 years..
@ cha
Hi I’m working in Manila but my home is in Sta. Rosa, Laguna 🙂 My officemates find my addiction weird, which I don’t mind at all. As long as I’m happy with it and that my family supports me. Nice meeting you here. Sana pupunta dito ang JYJ one of these days. I wouldn’t miss it 🙂
@ cha
Hi, same here,hahaha. Each time i open the PC, my husband and my sons would all say…JYJ again! Mama is so hooked! Mama’s crush are JYJ! and my youngest son, who is 6 years old would be ask me, “mama are you going to spend the whole day with JYJ again?” …indeed they are my cyber love and guilty pleasures.. and all this happened only now that I’m in my mid-40’s hahaha.
@ellis

@jyj1214 hahahaha!! i tried explaining my love for them to my bestfriend’s but they still did’nt get it (they really wer looking at me like there was something wrong with me 🙂 ) specially i never was into any fandom ever!! even when i was younger… my other half naman would ask why do you like him? but he looks like a girl 🙂 hehehehehe how i wish they could visit the philippines or if not next time they have a concert here in s.e.a us mga lola fans can all go…i was thinking i would only be the one na matanda…hahahaha!! 🙂
Is that his car or his character’s? I liked the silver lamborghini, but for a famous person who gets stalked 😦 it would have been almost impossible for him to ever drive it & not get mobbed. (Although I don’t think we ever established if the lamborghini was his or not, did we?)
I think it was him in that photo, with the Lamborgini. The manager/PA in that baseball cap is the same one who follows him around. I’m guessing they lease all the cars they use, and it’s more than possible, they each have more than one. 🙂 As we say, it’s their money, they get to spend it ANY way they want to!
I thought it was Jaejoong in the photo too. I love Lamborghini’s, but its the sort of car people are always going to stare at to begin with – so if you’re famous but you want to be incognito, it’s not the best car to drive. Unless you live in Monaco where Lamborghini’s, Ferrari’s, Porsche’s etc are more common than the flu in winter. So are luxury mega yachts. If I win millions in lotto, I’ll hire one for a week & we can party our little butts off, sail to the Amalfi Coast & go to town on the local cuisine! You, me, Sammie, a yacht, the Italian coastline, Italian food…what else do we need?? JYJ?? Oh & Lilibaiyu of course – but she only gets salad!!! NO WINE FOR THAT LUSH!!!!
Oh dear, no wine? Looks like her time won’t be that much fun! 🙂 Well, it’s been decades since I was in the region. It would be nice to see the area again. Reminds me to go check my lottery numbers!
But as to the stalking thing. Yes, it is a car that attracts attention. But my guess is, if he still has it, he only uses it for special occasions. 😉 Like maybe a date? Anyhow, since for the most part the guys are accompanied by staff members, I would assume it’s something they are used to now. All I care about is if these things bring them joy and pleasure, so be it. After all the years of having others dictate how they should live, this is Nirvana to me.
just pop up for a sec after saw those cars kekekeke
is that continental supersport model ? i just search some information about that n this is the result
is an all-wheel drive supercar that is faster and more agile than any Bentley built for the road.
Available as a two-seater coupé or four-seater convertible, its muscular exterior and distinctive interior styling is unmistakably Bentley in its design and craftsmanship.
This is a car created through the continuing desire to reach new limits.
The Continental Supersports represents a perfect relationship between engineering and design with the enhanced iconic GT looks reflecting and heightening the supercar performance.
Jaejoong has Lamborghini and Bentley and his previous Audi R8…Yoochun has a Ferrari and that one other car…And Junsu with his Jaguar and that other white one. XDDDD I wanna be in the passenger seat!!! >//////////////< *starts daydreaming*
JYJ work hard for the things they want. They deserve only the best. Work hard, play hard. What’s truly wonderful is that now we all can see the fruits of their labors. JYJ’s laughing all the way to the bank……. wonderful!
They deserve it all…not only ferrari, bentley, 3million usd luxury apartment, villas, ..they deserve more than that because they have been giving us and teach us about sadness, happiness, fighting for what you believe in, about love..they have been sharing the wonderful and beautiful music that they create..the music that sooth us, make us happy, make us cry, make us stronger, make us believe that nothing is impossible if we believe and keep our faith always…
@kris@jyj1214@cha
After reading your imputs..it sort of summaries everything I and my colleague wish to say about our
love for JYJ and the support from our hubby. o( ^_ ^)o .I personally like Jaejoong from the beginning since
DBSK days . Just like jyj1214 says…cyber love and guilty pleasure maybe this is one of our mid life mid 40’s crisis .
yup! yup! ay least the hubbys and b.fs know that jaejoong is not a real threat to them…..hahahaha!!!! the thing is that i never really liked any artist before jae 🙂 hay!! 🙂
@cha….I think they should worry a bit…..;) this is also to tell them no laze around eat,sleep and grow a pot belly .They should exercise and have nice shape bodies like all those korean actors and singers .Nice muscular body with a six pack tummy and big muscular arms….hahaha but not like Arnold Schwarzenegger,that is already too much.When you look at Jaejoong, it is hard to describe….when you says he looks like a girl, he is not.When you says he is a boy ,he is too pretty. To me…Jaejoong is Jaejoong ,nothing to describe him except for two words…”SPECIAL” in his own unique way and ‘LOVABLE “
OMG! finnaly.. i can si his.. umm, Bentley?
yippie yippie, I second ur words 🙂
I deadly want to know him and his car xDD since I saw Chun’s and Su’s already
and waooow, his choice is AWESOME!
Look at how handsome and elegant the car is, same like the owner
JJ bb is such a man!!
JYJ fighto
*flails at the car*
ME GUSTA
Cooolllll but so blurry wat type of car is that?
Whoa. Um…where’d the Ferari go? That another one of his collections? hhehe..
yoochuns the one with the ferrari
This is NOT a Lambo
*facepalm*
Ahhh…I get so confused! HAHA! I knew it wasn’t a Ferrari or a Lambo…so…hmmm…
I start to doubt all those cars is theirs, they change vehicles too often.
They lease their cars dear.
I think they just lease their cars or trade the old to a new one, so they only spend less.
But I notice in some sites, the words “flaunting” and “show off” their wealth are widely use nowadays when they refer to JYJ and “down to earth” referring to their idols…lol, who doesn’t want beautiful things if you can afford it!
@Kris
Ah…”flaunting” and “show off”. Well, I hope they continue to flaunt and show off ’til the cows come home. They have earned every right to flaunt and show off. Working hard for your money and finally getting paid for it, allows one to live large. Just ask Oprah. You earn it!
Maybe when the day comes, and their favorite is able to afford to, they will be flaunting and showing off.
@BAF
Yes, you’re right, just ask Oprah…
For me, house and a car are basic necessities, and a recording studio is needed for their work, I still don’t consider it flaunting ( ah, maybe because the cars are of luxurious brand, but even our local celebrities here have also that cars (second hand most of the times) and to think my country is poorer than SK.

they just don’t want to accept or maybe you’re right that they are in self-denial that their idols are poorly paid but it’s alright with them if the CEO and executives are the ones getting richer, their share of stocks are getting higher…they don’t care, anyway their idols are “down to earth”and “very humble” lol.
Ain’t nothing wrong with being ‘rich and humble’. It’s going to be a rude awakening for those “who are too blind to see.” What I would like someone to ask these ‘unseeing ones’, why don’t you go stalk the CEOs and executives of these companies, see how THEY live, then come back and tell us how ”down to earth and humble” they are.
no one notice his hair look different a little bit?
oh i did notice jae’s hair too… and his broad chest 🙂 He looks so manly! Gosh I’m blushing while saying this [considering Jae is almost like a son to me given our age difference]. Good thing my husband is still asleep, hehehe…
hahahahaha
no one can’t deny Jaejoong effect auntie 🙂
even 5 year-old children will fall for Jaejoongie 🙂
@marielovesJYJ Thanks for that assurance…jaejoong’s appeal as well as Junsu & Chun not only goes beyond age, but across cultures as well. I’m feeling less awkward now 🙂

@mun @snowflakes @sapphire @luvjaechunsu
I totally agree with you … xDDD

The fastest, most powerful Bentley ever.

I think it’s a GTC convertible…
it is haha 😀
hot guy need a hot car!! XD
Jaejoong <333
*needs
wanna know more about Jae’s car?watch this..
I was just smiling while watching it..all I can say is “oooooooooooohhhhhhh cool!”
Whoa. O.O
Nice ride, Jae 😀 I approve. ^^
But I miss his Lambo Spyder and Audi R8 … >.> They’re my dream cars. I was so happy when Jae got them …
Jaejoong has Lamborghini and Bentley and his previous Audi R8…Yoochun has a Ferrari and that one other car…And Junsu with his Jaguar and that other white one. XDDDD I wanna be in the passenger seat!!! >//////////////< *starts daydreaming*
I think one of junsu’s car is Maseratti
Junsu has a white Maserati Gran Turismo and Mersedes Benz SLS (the latest addition to his collection). ^^
Bentley ? i thought now he use Lamborghini :DD
Jae’s Lambo ^^
JYJ work hard for the things they want. They deserve only the best. Work hard, play hard. What’s truly wonderful is that now we all can see the fruits of their labors. JYJ’s laughing all the way to the bank……. wonderful!
DITTO! My sentiments exactly! They deserve whatever pleasures THEIR money will buy!
They deserve it all…not only ferrari, bentley, 3million usd luxury apartment, villas, ..they deserve more than that because they have been giving us and teach us about sadness, happiness, fighting for what you believe in, about love..they have been sharing the wonderful and beautiful music that they create..the music that sooth us, make us happy, make us cry, make us stronger, make us believe that nothing is impossible if we believe and keep our faith always…
