Cast of “Boss” Praise in Unison: Kim Jaejoong an Actor Who Will Attain Greatness
Group JYJ’s Kim Jaejoong is appearing in the new SBS Wed-Thursday drama Protect the Boss that will air starting August. He is receiving the praise of the acting cast due to his diligence and remarkable acting ability.
According to SBS, Kim Jaejoong began in earnest the filming for Protect the Boss with the reception scene that took place on the 15th in the 63 Building of Yuwedo, Seoul.
Kim Jaejoong, who is playing the role of Muwon who is called (by others) in the drama as the Prince of the Financial World, started to exchange lines with Ji Sung in the role of Jihun with the cue sign of Sohn Junghyun PD. Quiet gasps of praises started to come from the sunbae actors who were also filming inside the restaurant.
Park Youngkyu, Cha Hwayun, Kim Hakyun and other such veteran actors who had the first filming with Kim Jaejoong even went to voice in unison: “Jaejoong is an actor who will attain greatness in the future” and “Let’s help him so that he can do even better.” Read More →
[INFO] In KBS Jeju Event, SM Singers Girls Generation and F(x) Will Perform Instead of JYJ

[NEWS] KBS Asserts that It Has Nothing to Do With JYJ’s Cancellation
KBS Jeju: “We Have Nothing to Do with JYJ’s Cancellation of Appearance.”
JYJ’s appearance in the KBS Jeju’s Music event to wish for Jeju to become one of the 7 Wonders have fallen through. KBS Jeju Broadcast Agency revealed that they had nothing to do with JYJ’s cancellation of appearances to Star News on the 16th: “KBS Jeju Broadcast Agency did not work on soliciting/securing the appearing cast in relation to this music event.”
The affiliate said: “We just involve ourselves in the transmission of the broadcast. The securing (of the artists) and the proceeding of the event is done by Jeju Island’s local government.
On this, the affiliates to Jeju’s local government’s “Jeju Music Event” were not able to be reached.
Sigh… It hasn’t been too long since its elaborate and very public lie (see here). Are we looking at a repeat of history by KBS?

[TRANS] I am trying to get a grasp of the JYJ situation… The answer must be one of the two. Either KBS did something idiotic because it was trying to suit SM, or it was committing fraud by using JYJ despite predicting the resulting situation. Read More →

[NEWS] 110716 “Backdoor Pressure” threatened KBS to have the entire event shut down if they air JYJ?
Earlier today, JYJ received a notice of cancellation regarding their appearance on a KBS special covering the ‘New Seven Wonders’, for which they were appointed honorary ambassadors for back in May.
Just four days away from the broadcast and with tickets for the event already bought, C-JeS Entertainment expressed their confusion and disappointment with the sudden cancellation notice through a post on their official homepage.
Recent developments have hinted at the possibility of backdoor pressure being the root cause, as a representative of JYJ’s public relations company revealed, “Our manager spoke with KBS officials and they had told him, ‘If we allow JYJ to appear on this program, the entire event will simply become impossible to hold.’”
