JYJ’s new movie has dominated the weekend’s theater district.
Ever since the movie “The Day” released four days ago in only 19 theaters, the film drew audiences totaling 25,000 people. In response to the support of the fans, JYJ made a several surprise visits to the theaters. During their visits, the group talked about their future plans on albums, dramas, and other activities and spent time answering the fans’ questions.
JYJ said that this movie is what the fans have been waiting for, so it is very grateful to see so much support from the fans and thankful for creating a good memory for themselves and the fans.
This release of movie allowed the artists and the fans to interact off the camera. Because JYJ has been restricted on public broadcasting shows, the fans have been desperate to be more connected with the group. For this reason, the domination of the movie is very meaningful for both artists and the fans.

DAEBAK!!!
yay! it also very meaningful to i-fans too~!
even i dont understand a thing what they said, thanx to all the subber for translating for i-fans~!!
=))
Honestly, I didn’t expect anything less than pure domination! Now if they could just see their way to releasing it outside of Korea for the rest of us.
Congratulations JYJ, at last “The Day” reaches the fans, though the road was so hard for it to be shown. Thanks to Cjes and all the fans who made the screening a great success.
❤
keep goin forward JYJ!
thanks for teach me about many things.
friendship, spirit of life, and fight…
like 3 of u, i won’t give up and keep fighting in this life.
Thanks…
n Love u…
25,000.
That’s not even half of the people who scrambled to get tickets. And not to mention the number of Japanese fans who would travel just to watch the movie.
If this was running for weeks or even months the shows will still all be sold out. If it was me, I’d be going to the movies everyday.
I am totally agree with your comments, I think 25000 is too little. There are thousands of fans out there waiting to see JYJ. I hope Korea broadcasts would understand that and stop the foolish restriction. Sigh…..
It’s amazing the effect JYJ has – they can even make var graphs attractive! Hee-hee ^^ JYJ Daebak!
Correction: it’s “bar” not “var” – bad fingers!
Owned!!!!!! XD
You got that right my friend! These men are kicking some major axx whatever they go. I wish you great success, JYJ! Keep them coming!
Dea to the Bak!!!!!!!!!!!! XD
I’m sure 25,000 is a small fraction of fans who would attend if they could get tickets. You can’t get tickets to see junsu’s performances in “Elisabeth”, (JJ hasn’t got a ticket!) and Su is one third of JYJ^^ Let’s hope with the new dramas coming up for Jae and Chunnie, other broadcasters realize that fans want to see JYJ.
i totally agree Barbara!!!
(A representative of Lotte Cinema stated, “We had over 110,000 people rushed to site that crashed the server. Average audience seat has been filled more than 75%.”)
110,000 crashed the site and only 25,000 went??? that was prolly the capacity of the theatres!! ^_~ thosae lucky fans!!!
JYJ FIGHTING!!!
lol .. i just love the variety of their hair .. epic!
Actually to tell you the truth I don’t wish JYJ to be on TV anymore..
Being on TV is sooo cliché and soooo normal…(hmmm nuance is a but off.. but I hope you understand)…soo pedestrian…. Everybody and anybody is on there. There is no more exclusiveness… do you know what I mean?
JYJ is like a rare treat… a very rare treat… I know many of us hope and wish JYJ to be on TV because it is their right…… BUT …hear me out please….>.< ….
I think JYJ now is the best!
At this rate I hope JYJ will only just make mini movies and broadcast it in theatres ONLY!
The reason is they can produce anything they want and put it out and people ACTUALLY appreciate it!!
And not to mention that they may earn more through this…. I know there isn't enough exposure BUT if you look at your so called movie stars most of the time they don't really go on show programs.
Besides JYJ has youtube now…. and THAT reaches out to FAR MORE audiences than your mere Kmedia stations, considering that SK is one of THE most connected countries via the net.
So I am one of those fans that don't crave for them to go on meaningless monkey shows on TV anymore.
I love just how they are now…they have totally broadened their horizons and branching out to other ways to connect with fans that no other K artists have ever even dared to try.
They are definitely pioneers and they will be remembered for a very, very, very long time compared to those that are easily forgotten when a new gimmick comes along.
Because JYJ requires no gimmicks or concepts or outrageous fake fanservice.
They are what they are and we LOVE them for it!!
JYJ FIGHTING!!
JYJ FANS FIGHTING!!
@kementari 8 although I want them to be on music show but I don’t want them to be on gag show playing stupid,I think they got to do more meaningful thing this way
@zan JYJ
I too wish them to be on a music show BUT not just any music show… I want them to be on a reputable REAL music show… none of that fake bubblegum idol pop music show that are completely rigged. Not to mention that those music shows are now nothing more that glorified fashion mistake, fake emotion monkey see monkey do shows…>.<
Can you tell that I have lost all respect for those shows? kekekekekeke…
I’d love to see them on Strong Heart (if it’s still airing). I love that show! If they were on it, JYJ would be sure to make us laugh and cry.
I agree with you.
Shall we just say that JYJ is too “over qualified” to compete on all those music shows or do some gimmicks in variety shows. Maybe they can appear on those shows as special guests or if they want to promote something but not on the level of the regular guests there. What’s important is they can appear if they want to , not that they can’t because they are forbidden.
And in one way or another, being banned on music and variety shows increases their value as a singer/actor and as a celebrity as a whole. The demand to see them is great, but the “supply” is limited due to the cockblocking, so if there’s a supply available, the consumers panic to be the first one to grab what’s just being available, even if the price is high, it doesn’t matter, because JYJ limited supply is just too precious to all their fans. It’s not a good scenario because the unlucky fans are left craving for them but that’s how the circumstances work. But JYJ being on dramas/musical/endorsements can somehow fill in the void. I remember Junsu’s quote which says that when you gain something you also lose something, or when when you lose something, you can gain something in return.
i agree with u….JYJ is too exclusive to appear in tv show
instead of tv show why they not use youtube to make their own show
just saw their random daily life or backstage life for 5 minute is more worth it that watching those idol in 1 hour
I agree. Something like YG On Air. He did all that because he didn’t want 2NE1 to go music show at that time. I wish JYJ would do something like that.
I do want, but for one reason only – it would mean a victory over SME, the end of their problems …
YOU SAID IT GIRLFRIEND~^__*
Somewhere in SK there is a huge disconnect with what is real. When reality hits you in the face and you refuse to see it, one of two things is present — insanity or willful denial. Either one does not offer a very pretty picture.
CJeS and JYJ keeping it real will ultimately give you the winning hand. DO NOT ever give up. 25,000 fans went to see your story and 25,000 fans will tell their friends and families and connections on SNS. This is the power of this fandom. Please don’t ever forget this!
PEACE my young brothers!
See JYJ power by proof.
I somehow feel sorry for the movie go against it.
The power of JYJ…!

They deserve this so much
And south korea’s went shock! Wake up people!! JYJ are one of the best star you’d ever have! love you JYJ and JYJ’s fans..
hail to the greatness of jyj…..
i think 2 screenings each on a few scheduled days are not enough to accommodate all JYJ fans who are willing to travel far to see the documentary. I hope Cjes will extend the screenings and sell the DVD!!!!!! please??
Compare to the other side i think JYJ is winning, so SME and the rotten bunch of haters should see how cool and smooth JJ, YC and JS do it with style. CJES DVD!!! please for those of us living outside of Korea
DAEBAK! Congrats to our JYJ.
