[NEWS] 120625 Why does Kim Junsu have many male fans?
The most special mark of Kim Junsu’s first solo concert held in Taiwan University’s Gymnasium on June 23 is the wide range of his fans – regardless of ages and genders. It was also particularly noticeable that many male fans came to the concert venue alone.
Even Kim Junsu noticed this point on the stage, “I can see some male fans here and there. If you are a male fan, please make some noise”. Quite a few of male fans on the spot waved their hands and let out their ‘deep outcry’. Even the female fans at the venue tried to imitate male voice and that scene made all the audience burst into laugher.

[NEWS] 120703 Discussion on the true nature of the Musical Hallyu in 2012: “Before Kim Junsu, After Kim Junsu”
[Note: Only parts related to Kim Junsu are translated.]
(Takahara Yoko is curently an active Korean-Japanese performance coordinator.)
Reporter: Which actor has set the beginning of the Korean musicals trend?
Yoko: It can be seen as ‘Before Kim Junsu, After Kim Junsu’. Since ‘Mozart’ created a big impact in 2010, there was a big change in the industry.
[…some parts omitted]
Reporter: Then which musical do Japanese audience want to see the most at the moment?
Yoko: The most anticipating musicals are musicals produced by EMK. ‘Mozart’ and ‘Elisabeth’ were already performed in Japan so the audience knew what these musicals are about. Above all, they are interested in whether Kim Junsu would participate in the performance or not. I think starting of like that, they gradually take interest in Korean musicals more and more. Now they even planned to go to Dae-hak street just to watch the musical ‘Washing’.
