When the bell rang and [you] opened your parcel, we assume that many of you have wondered [about] the meaning of the beetle and the 3 pieces of flowers.
In order to communicate with you, we have attached the explanation of the art director.
COME ON OVER!
This reminds of young boys running over the forest just to catch the insects with the butterfly net.
In addition, it is enough for the 3 JYJ members to associate with the delicate, strong, and beautiful flower that rest in the middle of the forest.
This box set collection is based on these 2 senses.
Jaejoong– Mysterious and compelling image of black rose
Yuchun– Soft and elegant purple tulip
Junsu– Natural and energetic orange tulip.
DVD case was designed by symbolizing the flowers that represent each member.
JYJ & making video clips is the story of connecting 3 members.
Therefore insects were chosen which flies freely around the flowers and connecting each member.
Beetles are not the typical type of insects such as bees or butterflies but it is incredibly colorful and beautiful.
We expressed unexpected beauty by choosing beetles.
The feeling of beetles to produce something special gave the impression of choosing it.
By fully filling in the image of artists not merely an idol star by changing the typical flash graphic design of idol group into a simple beetle, we tried to show fans and the general public the curiosity and new beauty.

Wow! I love the concept, and I think ever member fit the color of the flowers.
Mysterious Jae, Calm n Soft Yoochun, Playful Junsu.
I love the concept also. 😀 The bit about the beetle is awesome “By fully filling in the image of artists not merely an idol star by changing the typical flash graphic design of idol group into a simple beetle, we tried to show fans and the general public the curiosity and new beauty. “

LOLOL I loved that too. I spontaneously laughed out loud at the sheer audacity of the utter delicious nonsense of it, mind you, but then again–I loved it.
It is very clever, isn’t it? ^^
beetle = new beauty, okay, i get it, great concept.
but why jae is rose n yoochun and junsu are both tulips ?
Jae loves black? rose – mysterious? Beautiful, but has thorns … It’s like – the are more to rose, than only beautiful blossom, especially to black ones
Tulips are full of live and quiet kind of energy
Chun is dark tulip – elegance, reliable, with a bit of darker side, calm energy
And SU is bright energetic optimistic lovable 🙂 and 2 tulips means twins I think 🙂
Cant wait…
Very clever! Jaejoong is a black rose? It’s so romantic ❤
LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
love rose and tulip!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That’s what I thought too…
The flowers so represent the members,..
Jaejoong – black rose – so mysterious and yet so attractive and compelling to look at
Yoochun – Purple tulip – beautiful and elegant
Junsu – Orange tulip – playful, warm and natural
Really really like the concept!! Hats off..
Where can I purchase Come on Over DVD? I reside in the states. Does YesAsia sells it or some store in korean-based US store that sells or carries it.?

I swear I love everything that JYJ put on the market since their debut.
According to Wikipedia, it seems that : “Beetles are prominent in ancient culture, however the most would probably be the dung beetle in Ancient Egypt. Several species of the dung beetle, most notably the species Scarabaeus sacer (often referred to as the sacred scarab), enjoyed a sacred status among the ancient Egyptians.[68] Popular interpretation in modern academia theorizes the hieroglyphic image of the beetle represents a triliteral phonetic that Egyptologists transliterate as xpr or ḫpr and translate as “to come into being”, “to become” or “to transform”. The derivative term xprw or ḫpr(w) is variously translated as “form”, “transformation”, “happening”, “mode of being” or “what has come into being”, depending on the context. It may have existential, fictional, or ontologic significance.[69]”
So, I guess, they are on to something with their concept of new beauty…I also think that meaning is lost in translation, and unless we are fluent in Korean, we are missing some meaning.
Well, they boys are DA BOMB! as usual.
Dae to the Bakkk !!! Love it !!! JYJeeee !!! Come On Over !!!
The concept is so beautiful :3
i was thinking, why a big ol’ beetle?
“Beetles are not the typical type of insects such as bees or butterflies but it is incredibly colorful and beautiful.”
suddenly i feel bad for liking butterflies so much..cos they really are outwardly pretty..*guilty*
but once or twice i’ve seen really beautiful shiny exotic beetles..and had a silent appreciation for them..
now i see it more clearly: they are hardy and resilient to weather..and will always fight for survival..pretty apt for our boys huh? ^^
mr. concept for JYJ, you did a great job..never thought a simple design had so much depth thought out for them to correctly portray who JYJ are..
The beetle I thought was random. But since this is JYJ, I will accept it <-Shameless D:
I like the symbolism they employed. And their description of each member fits so perfectly.
However I love Junsu’s flower the best, its so beautiful and vibrant with color without being over the top. I don’t think I’ve seen a tulip of this hue yet. I’ll go and look for it.
yeah, i also loved Junsu’s flower the best, its so beautiful and also i liked the black backward….it looks so cool *-*
Wow..
As expected from jyj, their concept is never ordinary
omg! jaejoong’s cover is damn cool ! mysterious ? i love it ♥ so creative !!!!
I love this concept!
They’re far away from the merely kpop idols, they’re now more mature, independent, and beyond talented…SIGH I’m so proud of them!
Wow I love the flowers and I can see why the flowers represent each member:
Jaejoong- Black Rose, has a mysterious meaning because to some it is associated with death and mourning but to others its a sign of rebirth and/or courage; basically its up to the person p.o.v.
Yoochun- Purple Tulip, historically stands for nobility.
Junsu- Orange Tulip, represent warmth and happiness.
Also because I was curious about the meanings and everything lol :
Rose Flower Meanings
Rose meanings vary according to color. On the whole, however, roses are symbolic of deep love, concentration, intelligence, balance, and passion. They are also sometimes seen as a message for healing, revitalization, rejuvenation and courage. Roses are very complex in their features, and so therefore have complex meanings. More than just Valentine’s Day favorites, roses bear the mark of honor, devotion and intense commitment on many levels. Give roses only when you are serious about your intentions.
Tulip Flowers and Meanings
Tulips are also voracious sun seekers (like the sunflower) and will sway their heads in crazy contortions seeking out the best angle for light. This makes them a symbol of opportunity, adjustment, advancement, and aspiration. They are commonly thought to represent attainment of spiritual awareness too. Because they are from bulbs, and return every year (like the daffodil) tulips are symbolic of resurrection and determination.
