[TRANS + PHOTOS] 100712 ELLEgirl - Changmin Backstage Highlights
Changmin who's staying shortly in Japan for a day and two nights. Even though he stayed up late for work the day before, he entered the studio with energy. By the way, the clothes he was wearing was a black deep V-neck t-shirt with denims, and wore sandals which completed a relaxed casual look.
In the studio there was dim lighting. Won't the staff get sleepy then? And they replied "No no no!" and wouldn't let us take a glimpse of Changmin. No matter how sleep deprived they are, until they finish their job, something like the tension must keep them awake.
In the makeup room, he uses half Korean and half Japanese to chat with the staff around him. Sometimes you can hear his laugh from outside.
In the 'first look' revealed in our August issue, the full set of clothes actually looks like this. Changmin said that this style would be the closest to what he wears. Talking about that, at the Chanel show that he attended the day before the shooting, we saw him wearing his scarf rolled up like that.
During the shoot, the staff requested to Changmin that to "think of the cameraman as you girlfriend!". And it worked (!?) Facing bald and fierce cameraman Mitsuo-san, he kept making expressions of love.
By the way this is Mitsuo-san. For this day only, he became "Mitsuko" and took many lovely photos (laughs)
These are the clothes and accessories prepared for the shoot. Are you one that brings a lot of accessories to Japan? And he answered "Before, even if it was a short time, I would stuff my suitcase with many things, but recently it's quite compact. It's cos in the end, you can only use so many things. Things I need are skincare products and some clothes. I don't use the hotel amenities much, and use my own lotion", spoken like a true jet-setter.
Changmin that doesn't have time to buy his own clothes because he's so busy. From the clothes prepared for the shoot, there's been many times that he's bought those clothes. Even though he's not on the cover this time, from the clothes prepared, he seems to fancy the black jacket with shirred sleeves from "ATTO".
Changmin who is getting along like friends with the stylist Sasagawa-san. What type would a good friend be? And asking that, Changmin was being dazed by the answer, and his manager answered instead. "From a third person perspective, Changmin has many youth-like and pure friends around him" watching sports with everyone, drinking at home, passing his time like a normal 22 year old.
Changmin who stretches during breaks, and often massages his face muscles. In the break "Are you bad at smiling" was asked by the staff, and he bluntly denied.... obviously he doesn't like to lose. It's regretful that even though it was mentioned on the cover, in fact we didn't publicise Changmin's smile and hid it privately.
In last time's shoot, Changmin received directions on how to pose, and this time he's working hard on his posing himself. Like putting his hands in his pockets, moving his feet position, flipping his hair...... keeping a crisp tempo, and really a lot of variety! Check out our highly praised August issue for Changmin's friendly shoot, on sale now!! Appearing from the double doors with a "kaboom"!
And lastly, as there were lots of questions from readers about "food", we'll go through it a bit here. Refreshments prepared for the shoot are of the Japanese taste that he loves, Tsukiji's tenmusu! [T/N: Tsukiji is a place name, tenmusu is a Japanese cousine of tempura in a onigiri.]
Something refreshing is Japan's freshest cherries from Takano, Shinjuku. Coming to Japan this time, it seems that there's been cherries at each location.
To Changmin who shouted "I'm hungry~~" after the shooting finished, additionally, we gave as a present, baumkuchen and cookies to mark the end of the day. Last time he didn't eat much because he was on a diet, but this time he enjoyed the tenmusu a lot. Just to let you know, the first thing he ate when he came to Japan was pork ramen and curry udon.[INFO] 100714 DVD Box Set Of Sunao Ni Narenakute + Jejung Special Postcard

[INFO] 100714 M Countdown's 200th Episode Special: MBLAQ to perform "Mirotic"
Mnet's M Countdown which is meeting their 200th episode will be doing an activity with both singers and groups for the viewers.
The first idols, 2AM, will have each member take turns in singing a small part of Korean ballad songs in a unique way that will have fans soaked with emotion.
Also, Asia's representative idol group CNBLUE who's been growing crazily will be doing a parade of M Countdown's past 1st place songs. The flower boy band will be doing Rain's 'It's Raining', 2NE1's 'I Don't Care', G-Dragon's 'Heartbreaker' and Taeyang's 'Look At Only Me' and we're anticipating the kind of feel they'll be giving off.
With them, chic-dol MBLAQ will be performing some hit songs of Big Bang, DBSK, and Super Junior. They are earning interest because they will be doing popular songs like 'Lies', 'Mirotic', and 'Sorry Sorry', which swept across Asia.
Miss A, who has been taking the top spots on such music charts like Mnet.com, will be performing sexy female group songs from Jewelry, T-ara, and Brown Eyed Girls. They are planning a powerful performance.
4minute's Hyuna, who has been regarded as one of the best dancing machines among girl groups, will perform 'Change' with BEAST's Yong JunHyung, and Taeyang, G.NA, and JooSeok will also appear.
Even more, the "MCD Guiness" section includes all kinds of records, like the best audience rating, as well as #1 ranking, and the most appearance ranking is to be introduced, along with star's early debut looks, and the cast's NG collection are also to be part of M Countdown's 200th episode anniversary.
Relevant to this, CP [Chief Producer] Kim Ki Woong revealed, "Currently, M Countdown is broadcasted live in parts of Japan, and through this, it is exported in Thailand, China, Taiwan, and with other active exports, and making the live-watching a unified Asian culture. From now on, to amend the position as a worldly music show, we will do the best of our abilities to extend further into the U.S and other global parts. With the appearance from Lady Gaga, Kat-tun, and other top foreign artists, we are preparing variety of richness to the nation's music industry, also part of expanding us."
Bringing the fastest music trends, the global music show Mnet "M Countdown" is aired live on the coming 15th at 6PM, in Seoul, Sam-Am dong E&M Center.

[FANACCOUNT] 100708 Even his wrist is delicate – Gentleman Jaejoong

-section omitted-
Alright, I have been an extra (T/N: temporary cast) for many Spring Sitcoms. Below is the story for acting in SNN a few days ago.
To be an extra in this sitcom wasn’t because of Jaejoong This was written before, at that time people knew him as “The guy in the middle of DBSK with brown hair” His name was heard for the first time here.
The extras were like usual and waiting at the sides. Mono was dazed and waiting, then Jaejoong came. Jaejoong said to us “Good morning!”. Even the actors didn’t think of greeting ourselves. From the actor’s side, he bowed about 3 times and said hello, the actors here were finally aware “Eh? Eh? Is it us? Are you greeting us???”, In the end, we also greeted him with a “Good morning!! Please take care of us!” Although Jaejoong already walked far, but he still answered, “Please take care of me.” This person is really humble and well-mannered.
I once saw Jaejoong during a music program, I didn’t know why but my first impression of him was very good, particularly because Korean people are very gentle towards their Japanese fans. His impression is very modest and courtesy, the real him is just like that.
Then during filming. Mano had a chance to stand in the front (of Jaejoong). His skin is very fine and smooth. The skin colour is also very white. Although the majority of male entertainers (T/N: acting industry, music industry..) has very delicate skin, but even his wrist is very delicate.
The actors at me side started to talk. Mano: “How old is Jaejoong?” Actor: “Probably early 20s.” Mano: “Speaking of which, his skin is overboard-ly delicate” Actor: “Yes, it’s incredible.”
After telling friends about meeting DBSK’s Jaejoong, she replied back “Jaejoong is the one in the middle? The sparkling one?”
Jaejoong and AD went together to sit down, talk and laugh. In the end, they talked about filming little interesting things and wrote them down. Sorry, no real help. (T/N: I think she meant that she only remember this part?) (During filming Mano was dazed by Jaejoong the whole time) I only remember that it was shot a couple times, but there wasn’t any line NGs. (T/N: NG = No Good)
Using the time after filming, it was back to waiting in the side. Jaejoong once again was at the actor’s side greeting them “Thank you for your hard work!”, Mano and them also said “Thank you for your hard work!” This time they replied very well. Always passing by the actors, always greeting them at least 3 times then leaving. I finally realized that all the actors were greeted. This person is very humble and well-mannered.
Greeting the actors were a lot of people, but greeting with such emotion, it isn’t the same.
Just like that, filming was done very happily.
[TRANS] 100714 Zoom In - Jejung Fiercely Hugging Junpei

[TRANS] 100714 Ahn Nae Sang Of ‘Three Brothers’ Set To Appear In ‘SungKyunKwan Scandal’
Ahn Nae Sang, who appeared as the eldest brother Gun Kang in ‘Three Brothers’ and helped rake in 40% viewership ratings, will appear in ‘SungKyunKwan Scandal’ as Jung Yak Yong, the mentor of SungKyunKwan’s flower boys, the ‘Jalgeum Quartet’. Although this character does not exist in the original novel ‘The Lives of SungKyunKwan Confucian Scholars’, this historic figure was added to strengthen the theatrical aspect of the drama. As an adult who seems to be quite an oddball indulging in Western Learning and entertainment but is quite insightful, Jung Yak Yong is demoted to SungKyunKwan when he is shunned by the Noron faction after being favored by Jung Jo (Jo Sung Ha).The role of Jung Yak Yong was given to Jo Min Gi initially, but he resigned in a whirl of controversy when he wrote online that “The production company forced me to leave.” Regarding this, Ahn Nae Sang stated, “I thought over the offer a lot when it first came in,” and “I decided to take on the position after much consideration and consultation with the production crew so please watch over me.” Ahn Nae Sang’s participation in the drama will begin with a poster photoshoot on the 14th.
