I will never ever understand why JJ is forever ignored as a vocalist in Kpop.
I mean, I like Junsu just fine, but JJ’s voice, versatility and skill is the one that hooks me and holds me. Japan gets me and my opinion, Korea obviously… not 😉
Jae was mostly promoted as the “face” in korea that’s most likely why. Also I guess it depends on people’s preferences. In Infinite, there’s Woohyun or Sunggyu that are main leads, Shinee has Onew or Jonghyun, Suju has Kyuhyun, Ryeo, or Yesung. But in reality, you can truly tell in recent idols who is the “main” vocal. But Jaejoong and Junsu, are so different in voices, with different appeals that i can’t help but fall in love with junsu in this song, or jaejoong in the other song. Ahh idk where i’m going with this cause i really don’t pay attention to any other idols nowadays except our boys but Jaejoong, oh how i wish you would shine and be acknowledged for once in your own country. You’re voice really melts my heart! <333
Erm, I know it’s far from your intention, but I kind of feel offended.
As a Korean fan, please know that Jaejoong is respected in Korea. It is not obvious, but things don’t always have to be obvious. Korea and its people don’t ignore Jaejoong’s vocal abilities. They know he is a great singer. It is just that the majority of the population prefer Junsu just like you prefer Jaejoong or how in Japan, Jaejoong is the more popular one. Junsu has been promoted as ballad singer, whilst, how ever unfair to Jaejoong, he has been promoted as the ‘face’.
I’m a bit hurt and I know I shouldn’t be as you were far from offensive and you were happy for Junsu, but it’s just that, maybe I’m wrong, but generally, note generally, I see most fans are always saying ‘Korea doesn’t appreciate so and so’ or ‘Japan gets Jaejoong, why can’t the Korean public be more appreciative’. I find it a bit hurtful for fans to generalise us Koreans in such a way and even more when it’s untrue. We do appreciate Jaejoong’s voice. Just because he’s not in polls doesn’t mean we don’t. It’s like how, correct me if I’m wrong, most international fans prefer Jaejoong’s voice and regard him as the main vocalist and believe that his voice is more pleasing. That doesn’t mean Junsu isn’t appreciated outside of Korea, does it?
im one of those who wish jaejoong forever stay in japan or being a japanese or marry a japan girl because japan love him. i will not talk about how korea love jae or not, but you wont change my mind, i would rather jae stay in japan than korea
Gosh, that was quite rude of you when all I ever did was state my opinion politely. The least you could have done was respond in the same polite manner, or maybe that was too much to ask.
Look, I’m not trying to change your mind, think whatever you think – it’s your right, I’m not asking you to agree with me. But it is also my right to say what I can without having someone rudely jump down at my throat and and say something which is extrmely hurtful to me and my culture. Maybe you did not mean it so, but that is how it came out. I know what I know and I’m willing to listen to others but if you are so closed minded as to not even consider what I have said then that is not my problem.
O.O i also just state what i think. did i say anything hurtful to you or about korea? you are the one who jump around acting strange, i want jae in japan, and this is my opinion !
Er, actually, you kinda did. In your previous post and in this one too.
Did you say anything hurtful to me? Well, I must say, I don’t respond lightly to beng called someone who ‘jumps around acting strange’. You also implied, whether it was your intention or not, that Korea is not a good home for Jaejoong since you want him in Japan so much and would rather him there than Korea, which is hurtful to me and my home. I won’t indulge in it too much despite the many things I have to say though, since I’m starting to lose my patience with you.
All I say is that your words hold a lot of water and implications and yes it is your opinion and you are allowed to voice that. But I also have a right to voice my opinion on your opinion. I see now it was probably too much to ask for you to be civil and not call me names such as strange.
u do realise japan loves him for the reason his fans like to call a “shame” since it overshadows his talent right?
he may as well stay in china since he is just as loved there for the same reason.
HIS FACE.
as an artist i hardly believe he can be satisfied/happy at being loved for such a reason.
so basically you want him out of jyj,right?..=_ =”..jj’s a smart, grown man he knows what is best for his career..whether that ‘best’ is being together with junsu and yoochun in korea or alone in japan..he will do what he feels is right by him..
p/s i can sense your underlying comment that junsu and yoochun are somehow holding jj back, but seriously too me as a trio they are stronger and much more of threat..
calm down gurl O_O everyone have their bias in a group, i understand u like Jae, there is people who likes Junsu…i dont understand whats ur problem. Korea is Junsu biased just like Japan is Jae biased…so whats da problem? lol
Hi Vera.
I’m so sorry you thought I was even slightly offensive for that was never my intention, I apologize.
I truly think they both are good singers, I just wanted to say my opinion about the way they have been promoted. It is just my opinion and of course I know that the Korean (and all other too) fans appreciate JJ too 🙂
Please ignore the rude comments that were posted to this thread, as will I too.
Oh, thank you so much for responding so politely. I too apologise if I ever came across as pushy in anyway, as it wasn’t my intention. Ah, yes, I understand. I respect your opinion and I too hope that Jaejoong will get more recogition for his voice than his face.
gosh…i think junsu nailed it on musical..that why korean appreciate his voice..After the Mozart and TOH, everyone knows who is he..even, non-cassies know KIM JUNSU.hahaha…I think, only this vocalist surveys, junsu can win while others surveys done shows that JJ and Yoochun in the list but not our Junsu. Everyone already set their mind that Junsu is the voice, JJ is the face and Yoochun is the man. anyway, as long as JYJ in the list, it will be great..p/s…don’t post that make korean and JUNSU-bias feel akward!!!
Pfft! umm no japan does not get u lol
whether its kr or jp junsu still tops as vocalist
its also jj that calls js main vocal even if u like to belleve that jj is
jj is popular in japan for the same reason he is in kr, his anime like face.
believe what u like but what i see is Js single outselling Jj’s despite his popularity.
u’re comment is rude..honestly, don’t make junsu-biased fans feel awkward..alot of ppl love jj for alot of other things as well not just his face..and to be fair didn’t jj’s single do better internationally?…
p/s..i don’t really recognize ur id name?..r u trollin? 0_o?
becos u can’t recognise me i’m trolling? lol
and i’m rude how?
am i saying he is only loved only cos of his looks? NO
are u denying his popularity in japan in due to his looks not vocal ability?
we are talkin abt vocal ability here and to prove my point i brought up a fact instead of just saying no way my oppa is better!
international sale is irrelevent since we’re talkin abt jpn here.
anyway its not like i was trying to boast on js behalf or something o.O
THAT is something for yc fans to do, and well deserved so too.
i believed what i did was civilised argument.
i don’t understand why js biased fan should feel awkward… care to explain?
Um yes you are sounding rude, if you haven’t re-read your post. You can voice your opinion but don’t be rude or bash other members just to make your bias look good. A lot of non-jj-bias people believe a good chuck of JJ fans are in love with his anime look and don’t believe we actually do love his voice, composition skills, determination, ambition. I feel bad for JJ sometimes, his exterior is being judged more than his capabilities. And I feel sorry for you who cannot see or accept that.
>.> Wow how rude seriously I am an international fan and I liked Jaejoong at first cause of his voice not looks but of course his looks can’t be ignored I mean he is a EXTREMELY good looking human being. Still I know a lot of Jaejoong fans that fell for him cause of his amazing & versatile vocals, personality, compositions and the way he presents himself on interviews and on stage. Jaejoong is not only a pretty face he is SOOO MUCH more then that so please don’t generalize all of us Jaejoong fans for liking him only cause of his looks cause that a big fat lie. Even if others do fall for his looks at first its everything else that makes us fans stay loyal to Jaejoong for a longggg time.
You guys are all being rude! Why can’t you be happy for Junsu without messing it by comparing him to your bias. And people don’t seem to get it. We all have different taste. Even in looks we have different taste. Just because you think Jae’s voice is above awesome and should be #1 doesn’t mean everybody should think the same. And just because the majority of music critics prefers Junsu’s voice doesn’t mean they don’t appreciate Jae’s voice either. To each his own, except that the majority carries the vote. Besides Jae wins a lot of polls and nobody complains about how their bias should be the one on top on all these polls. Allow Junsu to have his moments too.
Congrats, baby Su! You totally deserve it. But, where is my Jaejoong? Besides Junsu, I personally prefer Jaejoong’s voice over the rest of the voices in that poll. It’s forever a mystery for me why many people refuse to recognize Jae’s vocal abilities. He wasn’t DBSK5’s lead vocalist for nothing.
all tvxq members have powerful voice..JJ,HOMIN and Yoochun can be in the list but JUNSU nailed this point because all korean are amazed by his’s voices because of the musical…not all people can be in musical!!anyway, some all DBSK and JYJ songs, junsu always the one to do the addlibs!!!ahaks…anyway,cassies love all TVXQ’s voice!!
are you sure not all people can be in musical? Even though I don’t follow up on news of any other idols besides JYJ, I do know that there’s quite a bunch of other idols participating in musicals and not all of them can really sing that well. Did I say Junsu’s voice or other DBSK members’ voices are not great? I wholeheartedly agree that Junsu’s voice is the best technique wise and he’s always the one who does the adlibs. However, Jaejoong’s voice used to dominate most of their Japanese songs. I’m just not pleased that Jae was known as the lead vocalist of THE great DBSK5 back in the days but critics and public tend to overlook his singing abilities. That’s all. You don’t have to correct my opinion. You can love all of the members, but you’ll also have your favorite among them. It’s common and normal.
Lead vocalist doesn’t equate to the best vocals in the group. Lead vocalist just means his voice is the cue. You know, like, they follow the rythm because its able to hold the other voices together much better. It’s the director of how the music should flow. DBSK5 members themselves have repeated chosen Junsu’s as the best vocal. When they want to compete with other groups, they send Junsu (Think Junsu vs Taeyang). This is how it works: Yoochun’s voice is good, but Jae’s voice is better (Jae’s more clear and steady, though I like Chun’s tone more.), Jae’s voice is better but Junsu’s voice is the best (tone, texture, technique). And I can’t even remember a time when I could pinpoint that Junsu’s throat/voice is sore where as I could always tell when Jae’s voice is sore/strained. Then again some people can eat raw tomatoes like its apple, but I can’t, unless its in between a sandwitch or mix with other food. It’s all about taste.
Yoochun baby, lets go with Mommy and leave these people alone.
@LoveUnchanged: I don’t need a lecture, thank you very much. I’m entitled to my own opinion. And stop talking like I don’t think Junsu’s voice deserves to win this poll because heck, he does.
since when in one JYJ member’s article, we can’t mention the other 2? If you say “business as usual”, why are you still complaining? Don’t be rude to me. I congratulated Junsu and acknowledged his vocal as the best in the group. I only feel unfair for Jae because as good as his voice is, he usually won’t be recognized in this field. I don’t remember saying anything harsh so I don’t need to be reprimanded.
I know, right? I wanted to comment on this article when it was first posted…something like “Yay for Junsu as usual…in before the wank!” But to be fair, not all JJ stans are like that. Majority of the ones here on JYJ3 are very balanced/awesome.
i agree =_= sometimes its annoying…i mean, leave Junsu to have his highlight…when other member wins a poll, fans respect it…leave my jungoo alone, he deserves to be recognized too.
me too, I don’t understand JJ why not on the list. JJ was on the list when he was a member of TVXQ, but why not now…
I remember that SM teachers said JJ and Jusu were the best. I can’t say he is better than Jusu, but he must better all the others in the list…..-_-
Hey, maybe he just wasnt
on the list for the poll? XD
But anyways, I do belive that he is appriciated in Korea. He just has more popularity in Japan and maybe in ymthe rest of the world >83
actually this was a poll for i-fans..i voted too and i remember pasting the link at gap several times..and yup, jj was never listed..the thing is the poll basically compared all the the lead singers from diff bands..so even if jj is (obviously) better than some of the other band singers listed here..he won’t be nominated..since junsu was the nomination for jyj as he’s the lead singer in the band.. hope i cleared thing up a lil
on the other issue i see keep being brought up..about jj’s popularity in japan..yes his popularity is immense but i don’t necessarily think that popularity=appreciation, for example khj frm ss501 is obviously the most popular member..but when it comes to vocals they normally mention young saeng..i honestly am really curious hw japanese fans really view jj,junsu and yoochun..if we had some japanese and korean fans here we would probably get more insight on how things actually are over there..
Yeah i remember kpopexpress tweeted to jyj3official twitter and asked who is the main vocalist in jyj to nominate for this poll. jyj3 admin replied there is no main vocalist in jyj. So I guess kpopespress chose Junsu to represent jyj themselves because they prefer Junsu’s voice.
How could anyone not love Kim Junsu. This young man is like a music machine, Born To Sing. He is truly gifted.
I have to share this video. Its one of my favorite Junsu live performances, just the man, his voice and a piano. We get to see Junsu up close with so much passion and the way he completely gives himself over to the music.
It’s a Junsu and Taeyong Piano performance from a few years ago.
Junsu comes in at 2:55 and just listen to how Junsu’s voice makes you feel like you are soaring from 4:17-4:25.
He inspires me everyday.
lol but even with the poor english in the one above he’s still is incredible. 😉
But here is one in Korean. Duet with Jang Ri. I like how you can hear Junsu perfectly harmonized with her but his voice is like an undercurrent. She soars and he carries and supports her underneath. (LOL like a real man should) Timeless. Enjoy.
Yep !! Yep !!! So true …I fell in love with his voice when I watched JYJ’s concert & “Mozart” Musicals…Like BAF ever said before photos didn’t do him good…In person, he’s good looking …& cute too…
ヽ(#`Д´)ノ well, if your purpose is to try and create fanwars between JYJ fans, you fail big time coming into JYJ3.
The people here are so much more sensible and clever than you.
So shoo and GET OUT!
No matter what anyone says: one thing is ABSOLUTE TRUTH (at least in my book):
1. Kim Jaejoong adores Kim JunSu and Park YooChun.
2. Park YooChun adores Kim JunSu and Kim JaeJoong.
3. Kim JunSu adores Kim JaeJoong and Park YooChun.
They love and respect each other beyond any understanding from their families, friends, fans, media, ex-comp, ex-, ex-,,,
They are happy for each other successes, and they are sad when one of them is not doing well.
All these squabbles have NOTHING to do with the boys. Not even this silly polls.
Exactly!!
Don’t understand why some people have difficulty understanding this! Perhaps they should use their brains more!!! ヽ(#`Д´)ノ
None of the boys will get a shit about this kind of fans who dare insult or put down their brothers!
Guys, if you are going to bash members of JYJ, then there is an exit door. Please read the rules before commenting. JYJ3 does not allow anyone to bash JYJ members. They are all equally important and talented and that is why we love them.
Congrats Junsu….I have my vote in there!
OMG, let’s give the spotlight to Junsu, no need to attack each JYJ’s members, Others are just asking why Jae wasn’t in the poll and still happy and proud for Junsu, but why others are crossing the borderline again and even Yoochun is brought up. Even Jae and YC recognize Junsu’s vocal capacity but that doesn’t make JaeChun any less, all the three are just amazing on their own unique way vocally and in other aspects. This post is for Junsu, so please let’s focus on him, Jae and Chun have their own day!
No one is denying that in this poll Junsu is the most deserving. However, one has to question why Jaejoong is almost always left out of these polls? someone mentioned above that Junsu has more fans in Korea, ok fine, we’re not debating that BUT the question is: people who invent polls why not list Jaejoong? he is better than everyone listed. As for the debate who is better Jaejoong or Junsu, it comes down to personal taste. I myself appreciate and enjoy Jaejoong songs, composition, voice and technique more than Junsu, even if all the critics were to say that Junsu is better, in my book Jaejoong voice is the one I identify with, this is not to say that Junsu is not a great singer. As for people who mentioned Jaejoong being popular in Japan & China for his looks; well, a lot of people appreciate that but saying it’s the reason why he is popular is downright ignorant, offensive, & misleading. Jaejoong was the lead vocalist in DBSK5 & tohoshinki, his voice is the most identified in Japan. He is Also the most recognized by the general public & not just the fans, for several reasons: his personality, fluency, and connections, as well as his voice as he leads almost all of their songs in Japan.
Ok, end of rant, & before someone come and say I’m trolling, I’m not I just lurk & like to comment when the ignorance of some so called “fans” hit the roof.
One again, congrats to Junsu, & let’s move on…
Cheers.
its because they pick ONE singer per group usually and the general consensus among fans (fans who are biased to have a certain preference such as yourself aside) and non fans as well as critics is that junsu is better in the vocals department than jaejoong. <<truth.
^ thus being the strongest vocal junsu is usually the voice that goes up against the other vocals from other groups
but at the same time do i think jaejoong is better than the other people listed? yes.
unfortunately this is out of our control and it is understandable that some people feel frustrated that they cannot ever just appreciate junsu’s achievement without half the comments being about jaejoong just as much as you dont like it that jaejoong is left out
i will give you another example
there is another group with wicked vocals and that is 2AM
BUT only changmin (2AM) will be in the polls
that doesnt mean the rest of 2AM suck or that people in general or even people who make the polls think the members who are not included suck.
Similarly BEG (Jea is the undisputed Queen but Ga In and Narsha are AWESOME and SO much better than most of the “best” voices from most girl groups)
preach it!! seriously, junsu is not the best vocal because the public recognizes him, the public recognizes him because he’s the best vocal!! if ppl put their biases aside they will be able to see that…but that obviously also does not mean that jae’s not a great singer..you can be a great singer without being the best, u know?..it is not necessary that liking someone equates it as viewing them to be the best in everythin!! i mean havin a bias means admiring a particular member more than the others, ppl should be able to retain objectivity thru it..sigh..
Why should you compare Junsu to Jaejoong or Yoochun??
Shame on you if Junsu, Jaejoong or Yoochun ever found out about this stupid fanwars!!
How could you say you’re a JYJ fan if you dare to insult one of them???Just enjoy their beautiful songs and keep the (‾⌣‾)♉
This site is created for JYJ Lovers, ya know!!
*inhale..exhale*
Anyway..Congrats, The almighty Junsu!! You deserve it, baby!!
Now.. Please soar and soar louder.. *smoooocchh* ❤
please do edit the article and put in a note of the fact that only one singer is picked from each group nominated. too many people are commenting on why jaejoong is not on the list, and why can’t jaejoong be on the list too – this brings out more disagreeing comments.
i love junsu and jaejoong, but yoochun’s voice gives me the shivers. but junsu’s technique and stability is the best! ❤
and for those who says jaejoong isn't loved in korea, please do note that his 'i'll protect you' song is played day in day out in shopping malls, roadside shops throughout seoul etc without fail until i can memorize the song and sing along IN THE SHOPS itself without shame, while junsu's are barely heard. korea do love jaejoong ❤
(it gives me shivers to be able to sing with jaejoong on his motherland, albeit with korean ppl looking at me like i'm a crazy foreigner.)
Your post brings comfort to my dear heart. Thank you. I love JYJ! All 3 wonderful boys! And I am so glad, extremely extremely proud of JunSu to see him as No. 1 in that poll. Congratulations to lovely adorable remarkable super-talented gifted, cutie baby JunSu!
ANO VER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?????
XDDDD
Lagi na lang may away dito!!! ang corny na… OA NA!!!!!!!!!!! wahahahahahh!!!!
everyone has biases… i mean seriously!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! do not overthink peeps…. do you all wanna get wrinkles that fast???
hahahahah!!!!!!!!!!!
why dont everyone just chill!!!!!!!!!!!!! they are in one group!!!!!!!!!!!!! why compare…. why the bickering? why the fighting?
*sings like Ewan McGregor in Moulin Rouge*
all we need is love~~~~~~~~~~~
all we need is love~~~~~~
all we need is love~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
again bashing Junsu? aaa~ I am tired of these… Well, I love their voices both in a group and individually… I mean they have their own voices characteristics, and each of them is the best! Well, this poll is just people’s preference right? So why bother? Every person has his/her preference.. If one member win a poll, it doesn’t mean the rest is not great! Again, it is personal taste.. Moreover, this poll just take one member of each group to represent the group.. I think, we as JYJ fans should be grateful for this (and I know, you all are grateful and happy for Junsu ^^).. I also understand JJ biases’ feeling, but calm down girls!! Everyone has already admitted JJ’s singing ability, all over the world.. It’s just now the time for Junsu to show his great singing ability as a vocalist… So, congratulation Junsu!!! I am happy for you… Chukkae~~~~~~~~
yeaaa so happy for junsu. junsu jiang
Como siempre el MEJOR!!!! xD
of course, junsu wins! he’s ultimately awesome in this field
yay junsu!!!no surprise
it’s random but i don’t get why yong hwa higher than hongki n jong hyun…=(
not even surprised xDD my Jungoo is the definition of PERFECTION when it comes to singing….so proud of being a Xiahpwa ❤
Congratulations Junsu. 🙂
Why am i not surprise.. haha congrats Junsu
I will never ever understand why JJ is forever ignored as a vocalist in Kpop.
I mean, I like Junsu just fine, but JJ’s voice, versatility and skill is the one that hooks me and holds me. Japan gets me and my opinion, Korea obviously… not 😉
Happythat a JYJ member tops the poll anyway 🙂
I feel the same as u.,, they never recognize jae talents,, anyway congratz to the lovely js
It’s mostly because of his looks which is a darn shame if you ask me.
Jae was mostly promoted as the “face” in korea that’s most likely why. Also I guess it depends on people’s preferences. In Infinite, there’s Woohyun or Sunggyu that are main leads, Shinee has Onew or Jonghyun, Suju has Kyuhyun, Ryeo, or Yesung. But in reality, you can truly tell in recent idols who is the “main” vocal. But Jaejoong and Junsu, are so different in voices, with different appeals that i can’t help but fall in love with junsu in this song, or jaejoong in the other song. Ahh idk where i’m going with this cause i really don’t pay attention to any other idols nowadays except our boys but Jaejoong, oh how i wish you would shine and be acknowledged for once in your own country. You’re voice really melts my heart! <333

anyway its not like i was trying to boast on js behalf or something o.O
THAT is something for yc fans to do, and well deserved so too.
i believed what i did was civilised argument.
i don’t understand why js biased fan should feel awkward… care to explain?
No need to be offensive.
And please do not try to lecture me about what my own country is like.
Thank you.
Um yes you are sounding rude, if you haven’t re-read your post. You can voice your opinion but don’t be rude or bash other members just to make your bias look good. A lot of non-jj-bias people believe a good chuck of JJ fans are in love with his anime look and don’t believe we actually do love his voice, composition skills, determination, ambition. I feel bad for JJ sometimes, his exterior is being judged more than his capabilities. And I feel sorry for you who cannot see or accept that.

Even though I’m having difficulty understanding what exactly you’re trying to say, pls stop creating controversial issues now.
>.> Wow how rude seriously I am an international fan and I liked Jaejoong at first cause of his voice not looks but of course his looks can’t be ignored I mean he is a EXTREMELY good looking human being. Still I know a lot of Jaejoong fans that fell for him cause of his amazing & versatile vocals, personality, compositions and the way he presents himself on interviews and on stage. Jaejoong is not only a pretty face he is SOOO MUCH more then that so please don’t generalize all of us Jaejoong fans for liking him only cause of his looks cause that a big fat lie. Even if others do fall for his looks at first its everything else that makes us fans stay loyal to Jaejoong for a longggg time.
wow, good job on all factors of rudeness, arrogance and ignorance.
You guys are all being rude! Why can’t you be happy for Junsu without messing it by comparing him to your bias. And people don’t seem to get it. We all have different taste. Even in looks we have different taste. Just because you think Jae’s voice is above awesome and should be #1 doesn’t mean everybody should think the same. And just because the majority of music critics prefers Junsu’s voice doesn’t mean they don’t appreciate Jae’s voice either. To each his own, except that the majority carries the vote. Besides Jae wins a lot of polls and nobody complains about how their bias should be the one on top on all these polls. Allow Junsu to have his moments too.
this so much!!<333
AMEN!!!
agree with u!!!!
Not surprised anymore!! JYJ are the BEST in everything:D. Congrats Junsu;D
Junsu-chaaaaaannnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn *hugs* congratz ^^
I´m so proud him
Yeah to Jun-chan!!!
Go Junsu! Go Junsu!! Go Junsu!!! Now put a smile on your face and make me proud!
oh! double happiness for me…i saw YoungSaeng’s name up there too…congrats!
Junsu-ah…congrats!!!
Yay for Junsu!!!!!
Congrats, baby Su! You totally deserve it. But, where is my Jaejoong? Besides Junsu, I personally prefer Jaejoong’s voice over the rest of the voices in that poll. It’s forever a mystery for me why many people refuse to recognize Jae’s vocal abilities. He wasn’t DBSK5’s lead vocalist for nothing.
all tvxq members have powerful voice..JJ,HOMIN and Yoochun can be in the list but JUNSU nailed this point because all korean are amazed by his’s voices because of the musical…not all people can be in musical!!anyway, some all DBSK and JYJ songs, junsu always the one to do the addlibs!!!ahaks…anyway,cassies love all TVXQ’s voice!!
=.=
are you sure not all people can be in musical? Even though I don’t follow up on news of any other idols besides JYJ, I do know that there’s quite a bunch of other idols participating in musicals and not all of them can really sing that well. Did I say Junsu’s voice or other DBSK members’ voices are not great? I wholeheartedly agree that Junsu’s voice is the best technique wise and he’s always the one who does the adlibs. However, Jaejoong’s voice used to dominate most of their Japanese songs. I’m just not pleased that Jae was known as the lead vocalist of THE great DBSK5 back in the days but critics and public tend to overlook his singing abilities. That’s all. You don’t have to correct my opinion. You can love all of the members, but you’ll also have your favorite among them. It’s common and normal.
Lead vocalist doesn’t equate to the best vocals in the group. Lead vocalist just means his voice is the cue. You know, like, they follow the rythm because its able to hold the other voices together much better. It’s the director of how the music should flow. DBSK5 members themselves have repeated chosen Junsu’s as the best vocal. When they want to compete with other groups, they send Junsu (Think Junsu vs Taeyang). This is how it works: Yoochun’s voice is good, but Jae’s voice is better (Jae’s more clear and steady, though I like Chun’s tone more.), Jae’s voice is better but Junsu’s voice is the best (tone, texture, technique). And I can’t even remember a time when I could pinpoint that Junsu’s throat/voice is sore where as I could always tell when Jae’s voice is sore/strained. Then again some people can eat raw tomatoes like its apple, but I can’t, unless its in between a sandwitch or mix with other food. It’s all about taste.
Yoochun baby, lets go with Mommy and leave these people alone.
@LoveUnchanged: I don’t need a lecture, thank you very much. I’m entitled to my own opinion. And stop talking like I don’t think Junsu’s voice deserves to win this poll because heck, he does.
Guess it was too much to hope for a junsu article minus the jae stans raining on the parade
Oh well
Business as.usual
Pls don’t generalize -_-
yeah, it’s tiring….hehehe
since when in one JYJ member’s article, we can’t mention the other 2? If you say “business as usual”, why are you still complaining? Don’t be rude to me. I congratulated Junsu and acknowledged his vocal as the best in the group. I only feel unfair for Jae because as good as his voice is, he usually won’t be recognized in this field. I don’t remember saying anything harsh so I don’t need to be reprimanded.
I know, right? I wanted to comment on this article when it was first posted…something like “Yay for Junsu as usual…in before the wank!” But to be fair, not all JJ stans are like that. Majority of the ones here on JYJ3 are very balanced/awesome.
i agree =_= sometimes its annoying…i mean, leave Junsu to have his highlight…when other member wins a poll, fans respect it…leave my jungoo alone, he deserves to be recognized too.
^_____________________^
congrats junsu ,jj should be in the list to he sings so much better than these all on the list
Junsu’s forever no.1!!! conditioned response..best idol vocalist..Xiah Junsu!!<333
me too, I don’t understand JJ why not on the list. JJ was on the list when he was a member of TVXQ, but why not now…
I remember that SM teachers said JJ and Jusu were the best. I can’t say he is better than Jusu, but he must better all the others in the list…..-_-
I soooo concur with you! I mean not to be mean, but some of the people on this list should not be on there.
Hey, maybe he just wasnt
on the list for the poll? XD
But anyways, I do belive that he is appriciated in Korea. He just has more popularity in Japan and maybe in ymthe rest of the world >83
actually this was a poll for i-fans..i voted too and i remember pasting the link at gap several times..and yup, jj was never listed..the thing is the poll basically compared all the the lead singers from diff bands..so even if jj is (obviously) better than some of the other band singers listed here..he won’t be nominated..since junsu was the nomination for jyj as he’s the lead singer in the band.. hope i cleared thing up a lil
on the other issue i see keep being brought up..about jj’s popularity in japan..yes his popularity is immense but i don’t necessarily think that popularity=appreciation, for example khj frm ss501 is obviously the most popular member..but when it comes to vocals they normally mention young saeng..i honestly am really curious hw japanese fans really view jj,junsu and yoochun..if we had some japanese and korean fans here we would probably get more insight on how things actually are over there..
Yeah i remember kpopexpress tweeted to jyj3official twitter and asked who is the main vocalist in jyj to nominate for this poll. jyj3 admin replied there is no main vocalist in jyj. So I guess kpopespress chose Junsu to represent jyj themselves because they prefer Junsu’s voice.
yayy go SUSU!
Ah, this is a well chosen photo. It’s from the 081209 KBS Open Concert, and Junsu is singing “Don’t Say Goodbye” here.
This matches his tweet from earlier on today. (sorry, published too early)
CONGRATULATIONS!!
…And then the whole world said, “DUH”!!!!
Here are some Junsu vids I found…
I have those exact vids saved too and play them very often!^^ His vocals are AMAZING!
How could anyone not love Kim Junsu. This young man is like a music machine, Born To Sing. He is truly gifted.
I have to share this video. Its one of my favorite Junsu live performances, just the man, his voice and a piano. We get to see Junsu up close with so much passion and the way he completely gives himself over to the music.
It’s a Junsu and Taeyong Piano performance from a few years ago.
Junsu comes in at 2:55 and just listen to how Junsu’s voice makes you feel like you are soaring from 4:17-4:25.
He inspires me everyday.
nod…even his english is jhsfkhfhfki but his voice is ‘thumbs up’
lol but even with the poor english in the one above he’s still is incredible. 😉
But here is one in Korean. Duet with Jang Ri. I like how you can hear Junsu perfectly harmonized with her but his voice is like an undercurrent. She soars and he carries and supports her underneath. (LOL like a real man should) Timeless. Enjoy.
Yep !! Yep !!! So true …I fell in love with his voice when I watched JYJ’s concert & “Mozart” Musicals…Like BAF ever said before photos didn’t do him good…In person, he’s good looking …& cute too…
This is my very best of Junsu, “Beautiful thing”!
kke and there was the epic “Hey, you want me? I want you”. yay for junsu’s english! kke. and i know he’s a lot better now. 🙂
oh! really
i don’t believe it
oh so great my junsu
but my micky is greater than you
because he is cuter than you
ha ha ha junsu
sorry
what the… am a Chunsa.. but that was..
I’m sure you are just joking.
Orther wise me and my Chunbaby are really gonna be really dissapointed in you.
yup..i sorta think she’s jokin too actually..
OMG!!! Are u trolling? I feel offended as a chunsa.
ヽ(#`Д´)ノ well, if your purpose is to try and create fanwars between JYJ fans, you fail big time coming into JYJ3.
The people here are so much more sensible and clever than you.
So shoo and GET OUT!
ommoo… good job junsu… =)
I think it’s a well deserved spot~ but honestly…he can even compete with the existing singers and still come out as one of the best!
KIM JUNSU …… BORN TO BE SINGER……………!!!!!!
Junsu~
*thumbs up!*
The boy deserves it, no surprises ^^
after so many years, Junsu’s name is still going strong!!!
love you n congratz !!!
CONGRATS, JUNSU!!^^ Definitely the best in Asia!
Congrats Junsu baby!!!
No surprise but still congrat him\(^o^)/
No matter what anyone says: one thing is ABSOLUTE TRUTH (at least in my book):
1. Kim Jaejoong adores Kim JunSu and Park YooChun.
2. Park YooChun adores Kim JunSu and Kim JaeJoong.
3. Kim JunSu adores Kim JaeJoong and Park YooChun.
They love and respect each other beyond any understanding from their families, friends, fans, media, ex-comp, ex-, ex-,,,
They are happy for each other successes, and they are sad when one of them is not doing well.
All these squabbles have NOTHING to do with the boys. Not even this silly polls.
Exactly!!
Don’t understand why some people have difficulty understanding this! Perhaps they should use their brains more!!! ヽ(#`Д´)ノ
None of the boys will get a shit about this kind of fans who dare insult or put down their brothers!
*give a *
Thank you daebaksama!
Guys, if you are going to bash members of JYJ, then there is an exit door. Please read the rules before commenting. JYJ3 does not allow anyone to bash JYJ members. They are all equally important and talented and that is why we love them.
@daebaksama & @Shadow
EXACTLY!
Mte, thank you for writing this!
@daebaksama,thank you ,you did a great job here…
Butterfly kiss for being spot on!
Congrats Junsu….I have my vote in there!
OMG, let’s give the spotlight to Junsu, no need to attack each JYJ’s members, Others are just asking why Jae wasn’t in the poll and still happy and proud for Junsu, but why others are crossing the borderline again and even Yoochun is brought up. Even Jae and YC recognize Junsu’s vocal capacity but that doesn’t make JaeChun any less, all the three are just amazing on their own unique way vocally and in other aspects. This post is for Junsu, so please let’s focus on him, Jae and Chun have their own day!
Congratulations Junsu!! You’re amazing!!
No one is denying that in this poll Junsu is the most deserving. However, one has to question why Jaejoong is almost always left out of these polls? someone mentioned above that Junsu has more fans in Korea, ok fine, we’re not debating that BUT the question is: people who invent polls why not list Jaejoong? he is better than everyone listed. As for the debate who is better Jaejoong or Junsu, it comes down to personal taste. I myself appreciate and enjoy Jaejoong songs, composition, voice and technique more than Junsu, even if all the critics were to say that Junsu is better, in my book Jaejoong voice is the one I identify with, this is not to say that Junsu is not a great singer. As for people who mentioned Jaejoong being popular in Japan & China for his looks; well, a lot of people appreciate that but saying it’s the reason why he is popular is downright ignorant, offensive, & misleading. Jaejoong was the lead vocalist in DBSK5 & tohoshinki, his voice is the most identified in Japan. He is Also the most recognized by the general public & not just the fans, for several reasons: his personality, fluency, and connections, as well as his voice as he leads almost all of their songs in Japan.
Ok, end of rant, & before someone come and say I’m trolling, I’m not I just lurk & like to comment when the ignorance of some so called “fans” hit the roof.
One again, congrats to Junsu, & let’s move on…
Cheers.
its because they pick ONE singer per group usually and the general consensus among fans (fans who are biased to have a certain preference such as yourself aside) and non fans as well as critics is that junsu is better in the vocals department than jaejoong. <<truth.
^ thus being the strongest vocal junsu is usually the voice that goes up against the other vocals from other groups
but at the same time do i think jaejoong is better than the other people listed? yes.
unfortunately this is out of our control and it is understandable that some people feel frustrated that they cannot ever just appreciate junsu’s achievement without half the comments being about jaejoong just as much as you dont like it that jaejoong is left out
i will give you another example
there is another group with wicked vocals and that is 2AM
BUT only changmin (2AM) will be in the polls
that doesnt mean the rest of 2AM suck or that people in general or even people who make the polls think the members who are not included suck.
Similarly BEG (Jea is the undisputed Queen but Ga In and Narsha are AWESOME and SO much better than most of the “best” voices from most girl groups)
preach it!! seriously, junsu is not the best vocal because the public recognizes him, the public recognizes him because he’s the best vocal!! if ppl put their biases aside they will be able to see that…but that obviously also does not mean that jae’s not a great singer..you can be a great singer without being the best, u know?..it is not necessary that liking someone equates it as viewing them to be the best in everythin!! i mean havin a bias means admiring a particular member more than the others, ppl should be able to retain objectivity thru it..sigh..
Oh shut up you all people who try to bash Junsu!!
Why should you compare Junsu to Jaejoong or Yoochun??
Shame on you if Junsu, Jaejoong or Yoochun ever found out about this stupid fanwars!!
How could you say you’re a JYJ fan if you dare to insult one of them???Just enjoy their beautiful songs and keep the (‾⌣‾)♉
This site is created for JYJ Lovers, ya know!!
*inhale..exhale*
Anyway..Congrats, The almighty Junsu!! You deserve it, baby!!
Now.. Please soar and soar louder.. *smoooocchh* ❤
¡Bravo my angel voiced Junsu! You surely deserve this triumph dear.
dear JYJ3 admins,
please do edit the article and put in a note of the fact that only one singer is picked from each group nominated. too many people are commenting on why jaejoong is not on the list, and why can’t jaejoong be on the list too – this brings out more disagreeing comments.
i love junsu and jaejoong, but yoochun’s voice gives me the shivers. but junsu’s technique and stability is the best! ❤
and for those who says jaejoong isn't loved in korea, please do note that his 'i'll protect you' song is played day in day out in shopping malls, roadside shops throughout seoul etc without fail until i can memorize the song and sing along IN THE SHOPS itself without shame, while junsu's are barely heard. korea do love jaejoong ❤
(it gives me shivers to be able to sing with jaejoong on his motherland, albeit with korean ppl looking at me like i'm a crazy foreigner.)
lmao, all in one week too! ^^
ps: junsu-sama, keep on being that singing angel you are, your music makes me weep in happiness ❤
Your post brings comfort to my dear heart. Thank you. I love JYJ! All 3 wonderful boys! And I am so glad, extremely extremely proud of JunSu to see him as No. 1 in that poll. Congratulations to lovely adorable remarkable super-talented gifted, cutie baby JunSu!
ANO VER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?????
XDDDD
Lagi na lang may away dito!!! ang corny na… OA NA!!!!!!!!!!! wahahahahahh!!!!
everyone has biases… i mean seriously!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! do not overthink peeps…. do you all wanna get wrinkles that fast???
hahahahah!!!!!!!!!!!
why dont everyone just chill!!!!!!!!!!!!! they are in one group!!!!!!!!!!!!! why compare…. why the bickering? why the fighting?
*sings like Ewan McGregor in Moulin Rouge*
all we need is love~~~~~~~~~~~
all we need is love~~~~~~
all we need is love~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
IKR??!! The wank on this post is just unbelievable. Makes me feel bad for Junsu & his biases…
As a JYJ fan, I’m very delighted that Junsu won the polls, representing JYJ as a whole!!!
Biases war?? shame.shame.shame.shame.
hay… ignoring some comments above…
JYJ’s KIM JUNSU! CONGRATULATIONS BB!
you make me proud!
Imma LOLing at ur comment…XD
& yeba go bebe Junchan daebak to you for being #1
again bashing Junsu? aaa~ I am tired of these… Well, I love their voices both in a group and individually… I mean they have their own voices characteristics, and each of them is the best! Well, this poll is just people’s preference right? So why bother? Every person has his/her preference.. If one member win a poll, it doesn’t mean the rest is not great! Again, it is personal taste.. Moreover, this poll just take one member of each group to represent the group.. I think, we as JYJ fans should be grateful for this (and I know, you all are grateful and happy for Junsu ^^).. I also understand JJ biases’ feeling, but calm down girls!! Everyone has already admitted JJ’s singing ability, all over the world.. It’s just now the time for Junsu to show his great singing ability as a vocalist… So, congratulation Junsu!!! I am happy for you… Chukkae~~~~~~~~
Of course he’s KIM JUNSU…
congratulations honey!!!
so proud of you..
