[TRANS] 04.18.10 SungKyunKwan Scandal Casting Team on Micky Yoochun

Some revelations from the casting team of SungKyunkwan Scandal.

The reason behind Micky Yoochun casting for Sung Kyoon Kwan Scandal from the head of casting team
After the production decision of based-on original novel “Sungkyoonkwan yoosengdeulenanal’ drama was announced, it attached lots of attention . Right now, It is in the process of making decision for the cast and crew after finishing reading synopsis.

Now it seem like we revealed about the cast this soon.

Among all of them, Micky Yoochun really has the image that fits the role of Lee Sunjoon (Main Character) in all aspects so we casted him. Actually, for the pass time, he got so many offers from famous drama production but he rejected every of them.

The reason was he was already too busy to work as Dong Bang Shin Ki.

Apparently, all the offers for drama casting that were made and rejected actually were done by his agency more than himself.

Even he wanted to do acting but he had no chance at all.

Right now , It’s the time he has freedom to do any activities.
Right now, it seems like the right time for him to think about it and we heard he maybe has time to prepare for drama too so we offered casting opportunity to him and finally he decided to accept to cast for Lee SunJoon for Sung Kyoon Kwan Scandal.

Micky Yoochun has lots of passion for acting and for music too.

Actually, at first he hesitated about casting.

He doesn’t have confidence about it at all even he is so successful with his singer career. He said he doesn’t have self-confidence about acting , his acting skill is still not good and he’s really scared of going in to acting field.

I never think that someone from so popular group like DBSK will have this kind of thought and I really admire to see him so humble and have good posture.

He will definitely absorb his role as LeeSunJoon magnificantly.
He has a secret prepare for this gradually. His fan just found out some time ago.
All of the role will be revealed after this.
The filming will start around May. Please look forward to it.

[NEWS] 04.18.10 DBSK Establishes Record In Japan

Dong Bang Shin Ki announced the suspension of their activities as a group on April 3, but it is true that they left a significant legacy in the Japanese music industry.

Dong Bang Shin Ki debuted in Korea with their single entitled “HUG” in 2004 and garnered every Rookie of the Year award. The next year, they also debuted in Japan with the song “Stay With Me Tonight” and since then, they have released 30 singles and four albums in Japan and have grown to become star artists.

When Dong Bang Shin Ki’s 30th single “Toki wo Tomete,” which was released March 24, ranked atop the Oricon single chart, they established a new record. They have ranked in first place on the Oricon single chart eight times, which is the most number of times for a foreign artist. The previous record was seven times, which they also set.

In addition, their first best album “Best Selection 2010,” which was released last February, sold 410,000 copies in the first week after being released. Due to this fact, they also ranked atop the album sales five years since their debut and recorded the largest sales volume as a foreign group.

According to a person in the music industry, the single “Toki wo Tomete” and the album “Best Selection 2010“ reportedly sold as many as 300,000 and 800,000 copies, respectively. Dong Bang Shin Ki began their activities in Japan as unknown singers, but they became star artists in Japan by selling more than 513 albums even in the midst of a music sales slump that lasted until the end of March.

Even after their announcement about their suspended activities, the ranking of their single “Toki wo Tomete” has newly ranked in 38th place in terms of the number of downloaded ring tones, risen from 7th place to 3rd place in the category of video clips, and also risen from 2nd place to 1st in video ring tones. Those rankings are showing that their fans are still highly interested in their music.

Dong Bang Shin Ki appeared on NHK Kouhaku UtaGas for two consecutive years in 2008 and 2009, and they also won the best album award in the Japan Record Awards. Additionally, they successfully held a concert live at the Tokyo Dome over two days, with all tickets sold out, in July last year.

The DVD of their Tokyo Dome live released at the end of September last year sold 171,000 copies during the first week of sales and capped a splendid achievement by ranking atop DVD sales for the first time for Asian artists.

As of April 12, a total twelve of DVDs which Dong Bang Shin Ki have released in Japan are listed in the top 200 list, and seven DVDs among them are listed in the top 100 list. Also, another DVD -- ”Tohoshinki Video Clip Collection - The One” -- which has reached number one by selling 109,000 copies during the first week of sales after its release on March 17, remains in the top 10 for DVDs since that time.

Due to those splendid achievements that they have made, Dong Bang Shin Ki ranked in 3rd place on the Oricon Yearly Singles Ranking for 2009 following the Japanese idop groups Arashi and Exile. The ranking was decided based on the total number of sales of singles, albums and DVDs, and Dong Bang Shin Ki recorded 6.89 billion yen (about 8.26 million won) in total sales.

Meanwhile, after the suspension announcement made on April 3, their fans left about 15,000 messages over only three days until April 6, wishing for the group's continuation and comeback.

Japanese music critic Tomisawa Issei delivered his analysis at an interview with the Japanese press, saying, “Due to Dong Bang Shin Ki’s suspension, their Japanese agency Avex might have incurred losses of a minimum of three billion yen to a maximum of five billion yen [approximately six million won] in sales.”

Even with Dong Bang Shin Ki’s announcement to suspend their activities, the Avex agency officially announced on April 6 that the official Japanese fan club “Bigest,” with more than 120,000 members, will still remain intact. At present, the five members of Dong Bang Shin Ki are preparing for individual activities as actors in dramas and movies and as solo singers.

[TRANS] 04.18.10 DBSK Trio - "They Are More Like Victims"

DBSK members who are in dispute with SM Entertainment regarding exclusive contract issue; Jaejoong, Junsu, and Yoochun are forming a three members unit in Japan.

According to the news aired by KBS 2TV ‘Entertainment Tonight’ on the 17th, Jaejoong, Junsu, and Yoochun are forming three members unit to explore new activities.

Official from DBSK Japan agency, AVEX said, “The three members Junsu, Jaejoong, and Yoochun are already decided to form a new unit. The three will be active by continuing with new exclusive contract from AVEX.”

Regarding this, DBSK agency SM Entertainment which had been appealed by the three DBSK members related to exclusive contract provisional injunction, promptly filed a lawsuit in claiming for damages worth 2.2 billion won as expression of their strong regret.

However, AVEX official through conversation with ‘Entertainment Tonight’ retorted, “I think the 3 members are more like the victims here. Anyway, we’re done preparing for the compensation of damages. We did this (the Japan contract) because the situation allows us to make a contract. We see no legal problem at all.”

After the announcement of DBSK activities suspension, this is the first Jaejoong’s individual activity that has started. Acting together with Eita and Ueno Juri, this most famous South Korea star in Japan showed a natural acting skill and is fluent in Japanese as well. Jaejoong role is as a Korean medical equipment salesman therefore he has to dress in a neat suit. As a salesman who is distressed because he couldn’t increase his sales achievement and as a young man who falls in love, it’s reported that various expressions of him have been revealed





Many opinions among Korean fans after watching the show, “He looks beautiful and really stands out.” “Once this drama is airing in Korea, I need to study Japanese to understand.” In addition, at the scene where Jaejoong talked to his troubled younger sister in Korean, some fans said, “To hear Jaejoong talking in Korean after a long time, it’s really delightful.”

Unlike in Korean where drama will be considered not popular if it doesn’t exceed 30% rating, in Japan the average rating for drama is about 16%. Even many South Korea medias reported that first episode of ‘Sunao Ni Narenakute’ had started off with a positive note.
