Crossing everything that can be crossed rn!!
I hope they can performing a japan again. Because I know JYJ love japan, and japanese fans loves JYJ. JYJ always consider japan as their second home :’) avex or whoever u are! please don’t disturb the boys again, leave them alone. They deserve loves from their japanese fans too.

Oh, have you guys vote for yoochun for today? Don’t forget to vote. It’s only a week before the final date. Fighting ^^
So if ZAK Corporation is still working with the boys and possibly planning another event, does this mean that AVEX’s lawsuit against them has no merit or they aren’t concerned about it? I really hope that’s the case…I’d like to see JYJ resume their activities in Japan. I know that’s like their second home.
oops…nevermind…i dnt know what i was thinking. i forgot avex was suing the venue not ZAK Corp….either way, if they proceed with this event, would AVEX be able to sue them?
Trust that JYJ’s law firm knows its stuff. This firm is no newbie. They know what they’re doing. They will look after JYJ’s interests diligently, no worries, the guys are in good hands..
yup trust JYJ’s law firm. It’s one of the top law firms in the country & knows its stuff :)!
A concert in Japan? Wow! Hopefully good!
Zac corporation and Avex work together right? Mmm… I am not sure about this. I want the boys performing everywhere they want, but not whit/for Avex … Never again.
@Yane1210
I’m still not sure I understand exactly what Zac Corporation is. What do they do? Is it like a P.R. firm? Who exactly are they “negotiating with” and on whose behalf? Do they work for JYJ?
Zak is a concert promoter. I’m assuming they must be a good one, because despite the run around with the various venues, they managed to make AVEX look like a bunch of sore losers. Somehow, it seems as if C-JeS manages to find really good partners, no shysters. Luckily they dumped the biggest shyster when JYJ said no to AVEX.
My guess is they are doing what C-JeS does, keep your cards close to your chest until you are read to play them. That way, no one can make any signals about what is in your hand, at least not until you lay that card on the table. One way to keep ’em guessing. 🙂

Ah-ha, mystery solved. 🙂 (trust my V.E. Sister to know this stuff.) I knew a concert promoter once. His name was Bill Graham. He did all kinds of innovative and groundbreaking things for the cause of rock music that were also rather a sea change from how things had been done in the past. In fact, he himself became well-known, legendary really, because he was responsible for so many new ways of showcasing up and coming acts who then went on to become the greatest artists of their day. This is what JYJ seems to be surrounding themselves with–innovators. People who think outside the box in terms of new and novel ways to promote them and get their message out there in the face of this potentially career killing media block. Personally, I like The Team JYJ. I think they are all heroes and just like Bill Graham, will grow over time to be legendary in the Korean music industry.
Ah, Bill Graham…a name blast from the past. Know it well, with his shoulder length long hair. I especially remember those sideburns. 🙂 Talk about a venerable elder. Yes, he did help change the landscape for promoting. Took it right out of the dark ages.
Again, this is what I’m saying about the contacts C-JeS is making for the guys. Someone in that group has some heavy hitting experience. So far, all the associations are very well heeled. Not bad at all. 😉
i hope they can perform there but i can sense that Avex will butthurt in this event…
am waiting for Hayato-san blog entry then . XDDD… btw…. ZAK ssooo support of our boyz nee..
hope hope.. the event/concert will be held w/o any obstacle upon it.. *prayhard
AVEX tried to scare the venues by suing the Sumo’s place, so I don’t know if they can push through….I hope so, JYJ love their Japanese fans although…..
i want to see them perform at TOKYO DOME
JYJ IN TOKYO DOME FIGHTING!!!
leaving space in hard disk…gonna have new fancam…=P
Hopefully they can resume back their activity in Japan soon.I really miss their japanese songs and Japan stage.
Anyone know about the reaction Japanese fans now?
if there is a way it will happen. they can make it work! i sure hope so for the japanese fans and for all fans and for jyj!
ZAK Fighting! ^^
It’s amazing how this corporation has been fighting for the boys! ^^
I want JYJ to perform again in Japan! They and their japanese fans deserve it!~
Finger, toes, eyes & everything else crossable crossed that they can get a venue for the guys & make this concert happen. (No I do not look like a country bumpkin right now…how unkind of you to think such things!!!)
No..i never think such thing like that to you…OOOO hahaha…but i love you, you make my day..run back my office!!!
Love you too anva ^__^
Are we dressing ourselves up for any particular reason? 😉
Wait! I didnt read wrongly right? It would be a JYJ concert in Japan right — Tits still not calm
Man, I pray this will push through….. and I dunno you guys read stuff about anti-hallyu campaign that going on in Japan at the moment. Its just like some of us discuss about it way way before about Kpop new debut artist in Japan. Apparently some people — especially nationalist were getting sick and fed-up with the Kpop feed on their TV. Japanese start to realize some Kpop idols just went there to gain profits since, the artists didnt even bother to learn Nihon-go and Japanese culture. People seems to voice out, about almost/relatively nobody and nugus Kpop idols get time slot to perform on TV where some more recognize Jpop didnt even got a chance. People claim Hallyu bought the time slot…..hmmmmm….I hope people get along but if Kpop continue to expand their music and culture, learn the first iron rule — learn the language respect the culture, follow the more senior artist do stuff — prime example: BOA and TOHOSHINKI.

“Man, I pray this will push through…..”
Oh, goody! 9mmleftshinki, I missed you!! xxoo
Please don’t worry. Anyone who knows anything about JYJ knows that these three young men REVERE their Japanese fans, love them, want to be with them and Long To Perform for them as soon and as often as they possibly can! To say that they embrace the Japanese culture is a bit of an understatement. This is what is so endearing really about JYJ. They genuinely love their fans and the Japanese ones are no exception. And I think the Japanese people sense this quite intuitively.
@lilibaiyu ahahha I have work but i still lurk here. since time is kinda limited so I just read news and read “selected” (LMAO) comments hehehe Today, I kinda got a bit of time so I drop by. Still I did chat with few JYJ3 folks on skype — if you dx mind you can add me ckino9mm.
yah…I believe in Japanese fans when it come to their opinion on JYJ/Tohoshinki5 (not sure bout 2THSK – I read in OneTVXQ BE is withdrawing their membership after A-Nation2011 — it bound to happen, since well they kinda sing Toki Wo To Mete, and some might had lost it—I dunno, just assumption, but yeah, lots were leaving).
I am grateful how people had acknowledge THSK5 as an artist, and even put them in the same group as Jpop acts. Not just the fans but general public as well. I join the discussion over the Anti-Hallyu matter (its alarming coz anti-hallyu had cross over 2chan bickering already, more people had been talking bout it), the Jpop fans exclude Boa and THSK5/JYJ (yes they mention JYJ and JJ) from Hallyu which actually make me relieve. Seriously, I want them back and kicking in Japan.

Do you chat in English? If so–I’m in! lol
Re: Japan’s current hissy fit…. All I care about is that they are making the distinction between TVXQ2 and JYJ at this point. Beyond that, it’s all personal taste and what kind of music you like and that’s up to them alone. JYJ’s reputation with their Japanese fans is what it is. It will continue on into the future, I have no doubt. The “Hallyu Wave” is largely the advertising/hype vehicle of the big Korean entertainment agencies (like SM) so I am far less concerned whether their prospects for the future are good, bad or indifferent.
@9mmlefthinki
I find your comments about the Hallyu Wave interesting. Especially the ones about how the Japanese fans reacted about the performance at a-Nation.
My VE sister and I had a similar convo a few days ago along those lines. I think this was something that was bound to happen.
I used to go to to OneTVXQ. I haven’t been in a while. Maybe I’ll go back to checking it out.
Hope all is well.
@9mmleftshinki
Your comment was really interesting, but I’m still having trouble getting past the “Tits still not calm” comment!!! Was that a typo Cheeky??? Please, say it was a typo!!! LOL
