Congratulations! K-Pop Industry deserved to get world recognition.. you did great!
if not them………who else……………..????
I disagree with this, the k-pop industry has demonstrated poor moral standards, in any case JYJ is what has helped greatly to the k-pop positions in the world, so they are the ones who deserve recognition
sorry my answer i8s for @florensia. Gulp 😉

I’ve been following this exciting story since @JYJTurkey (almost 4,000 followers) have been trending it! The JYJ mv they have on the screen is the “MTVK The secret show JYJ – Be My Girl (Acoustic Ver.)” which I have on my youtube FAVORITE playlist!! It popped up in April 2012 and has around 84,000 combined views. I think it’s the best thing JYJ has done, and I wondered why no one watched it! So glad to see it on Turkish television. I’m in USA and I’m so happy to see Turkey’s televising them, and the excitement of all the Turkish fans!!!
OMG….it feels that am gonna cried right now…….JYJ Turkey you guys really done very a good and even great job for promoting the boys…i hope next year Turkish fans can watch the boys performance in LIVE concert in Turkey.
Horray! the market is big enough for everyone, here JYJ reaching the world without unfair boycott!
Thanks so much! Fans in Turkey!
“He said that 2013 was Korea Year in Turkey and there would be an EXPO called 2013 Istanbul-Gwangju EXPO in Istanbul and also there would be a K-Pop concert.”

Thank you JYJ Turkey for your continued efforts and hard work to promote JYJ.
Reblogged this on Say It Like You Mean It! and commented:
I feel so proud of JYJ men. I am a little selfish, but I rather have shows like this showcase JYJm, then your traditional music show. That doesn’t mean that I am not looking forward to see our men on those shows, because is in their rights like any other performing artist in KR. It’s just refreshing to see people talking about JYJ in a creative critical manner. JYJ, fighting!
JYJ Turkey team continues to just astound me with how hard that work for JYJ. Thank you! :’)
JYJ Turkey team are DAEBAK!!
I’m still curious … why K-media banned JYJ ??
Is it because of a law ??? or Is it juz the decision of the CEO of the media ????
