[TRANSL + SCANS] 190423 A to Z: about brother Jaejoong @ “JJ” Magazine June Issue

A to Z: About brother Jaejoong

He’s popular at variety shows, his talks are very funny and he’s good at speaking Japanese. He has a sweet look and also great singing abilities. He’s a kind brother who will answer the troubles of 20 readers of “JJ Magazine”.

This time, we’ll get the answers for what the readers wants to know about Kim Jaejoong’s personality. While he plays with his favorite pets, we explored the true intentions of Jaejoong’s heart.

A: Artist
When I make a song, I think I am an artist who often expresses things indirectly. For example, I write lyrics that makes you wonder “does this man love this woman?”. I’m ashamed of direct expression. It may be so even in real life. I can’t say “I love you” to fans as easily, so my music and personality may be the same.

B: Beauty
About my Daily beauty habits… Recently, I had a meal with a friend and I applied Vaseline instead of beauty essence and creams. Because Vaseline remains until I wash my face, so I can keep my skin moist. Lol.

C: Cats
I like cats better than dogs. The reason I got my lovely cats Nene and Koko was because I was lonely. I went to a pet shop nearby and when I tried to keep Nene, Koko was beside her watching me all the time. My eyes met Koko’s and I couldn’t leave her alone, so I brought both of them home.

D: Dream
My current dream is to not die! Lol. I’m kidding. The other day, when I was talking with a friend who’s always smiling, I asked him, “Don’t you have a hard time at work?” he said, “I do, but I don’t show.” For example, if you live in the countryside and there’s no one around you can consult/talk with, I think it will be hard enough to want to die. But, because I have fans who support me, I can always give my courage and do my best, even if sometimes I have a very hard time, so I think the environment (you are in) is important. Everyone has a hard time, but is working hard. I want to create a good environment so I can be happy as well.

E: Everyday
I used to clean my cats’ toilet as soon as I got up every morning, but I bought an automatic toilet recently, so now I don’t have to. However, it’s a little inconvenient because it requires special sand. (Wry smile)

F: Fan
When I look at the fans from above the stage, I always see a lot. Sometimes I think they are important “fans” that support me, sometimes they are my favorite “friends”, sometimes my loving “family”. It’s a mystery/surprise ♡

G: Gift
If I could change my personality, I wanted to be a stress-free man!

J: JJ
Is it the third time I am on JJ Magazine? I’m happy~♡. JJ is a special magazine for me, because our names are similar lol. This is a fashionable magazine and I am very happy. My friends also says, “I read JJ” and “that interview from JJ was interesting”. JJ appears on JJ, I look forward to work more with you.

K: Kim Jaejoong
It is most difficult to talk about myself. If I would compare myself to something, it would not be a glass, but “an egg”. A raw egg in the shell. The shell and the contents of the egg are weak and most likely to be broken immediately. If it was a glass, the inside would visible but the inside of a egg is not visible. And when the eggs are warmed, they grow into chickens. In the same way, I grow big with the love and support from people around me. Basically, I don’t like being alone.

L: Love
Love is difficult. Lately, I’ve been think that love is about “destiny”. Even if you have instinctual emotions, if the environment or situation changes, you will be leaving. Some couples break up after 10 years of dating, and some get divorced even after getting married. On the contrary, there are couples who get married in two weeks after they met. So I think love is destiny.

M: Money
I want to spend more money on the stage. Lol.

N: Negotiation

O: Originality
My strength is that I will never forget my gratitude even if I become stronger by getting support from several people. I have the feeling that “I want be stronger with everyone”.

P: Pain
The pains in the heart. In the past, when I had a hard time, I would try to get over it, but now I accept it and I give it up. You can cry if you feel like crying. Recently, I am very lonely. I used to play with my friends and take a walk when I was lonely, but now I am at home alone without doing anything. I moved in recently, so I have nothing to do, therefore, I get lonely lol. I don’t know much about my neighborhood and I can’t afford to go out. I wanted to find (somewhere) to drink in the neighborhood for a while, but I haven’t yet. So I’m staying home after all. It’s very lonely.

S:Season
My favorite season are spring and autumn.

T: Time
Recently, I am relaxing at home on my day off. When the next day is off, I drink and eat a lot. The other day, as I went to eat Korean food with 5 friends and staffs, we ordered 10 servings. I ate a lot and my face got puffy. Lol. Korean food is large in quantity, so if I eat it all I will become fat, so I eat it before my day off.

U: Uniform
Recently I moved in, so I changed most of the furniture but brought all the clothes. I have lots of branded clothes and cheap clothes.

V: Vacation
I would like to travel in Japan now if there are any consecutive holidays. To Kyoto and so on.

W: Want
What I wanted was a cat tower and an automatic toilet for cats, but I bought them. What I want now is tissue paper and toilet paper, and then kitchen paper lol. Even if I buy them, they will soon disappear. There are a lot of them in my house in Korea, but not in Japan. I want it anytime, as it will soon disappear. Everybody is the same, isn’t it?

Z: Zero
Last year, my solo activities started from the scratch. The year has passed so fast. It was a year when I was really nervous. I am still nervous and I have to do my best. I think I should always be grateful that I can work in Japan. The more I get used to, the more I should not get used to it.
I am glad to hear the responses ♡ I also have worries, so please give me advice!
