[NEWS] 100727 Micky Yoochun’s Manager “This Is What Really Happened”

Micky Yoochun’s manager has been caught in an assault case.

He was reported for physical violence because he pushed a student with his hand while trying to control the girl’s actions in a restaurant.

A family member of the female student, who was present at that time, stated, “With nothing but curiosity, we were looking at Micky Yoochun, who was sitting at a different table, and saying ‘He’s handsome,’ when his manager said, ‘What are you staring at?’ to us. So my sister said, ‘The manager is so f***ing rude.’ He followed us out and pushed my sister’s shoulder as he said, ‘Why do you have to be so f***ing rude when you speak?’ and ‘Get lost.’”

The family member also continued to say, “My sister got mad so she went back inside and said, ‘Why did you hit me? Is it a crime to say that he’s handsome?’ while crying,” and “Afterwards, the manager followed us outside, swore profusely at my sister and slapped her.”

But Mr. Park, Micky Yoochun’s manager, feels he has been put in an unfair situation. “I was dining with Micky Yoochun when the girls came in. They didn’t order any food and just kept staring at us. But their stares felt uncomfortable; they didn’t feel like stares from fans and were more like glares. So I told them that we were in the middle of a meal and if they weren’t going to order anything, then they should leave,” and “I told them that they could get a signature after we were done eating if they wanted, but they kept staring at us uncomfortably. So I told them, ‘Don’t stare. What are you looking at?’”

He continued to say, “It’s true that the girls’ attitudes were annoying me, so I asked them, “What are you staring at?” But what surprised me was the severity of the reaction I received,” and “I had to listen to a student, ten years younger than me, swear at me using words that no one would ever think of using.” He also added, “Male students with yellow (blonde) hair said to me, ‘You, come here (Without using the respectful tone),’ and they lied and said that I slapped her.”

But when asked why he didn’t apologize for pushing the girl’s shoulder, Micky Yoochun’s manager said, “I had to listen to the student’s family swear at me with… vulgar language and with threats of ripping apart my body such as ‘I’ll rip your arms and legs off and kill you.’ While I was being sworn at, the student in question was being interrogated so I wasn’t given the opportunity to apologize to her. Afterwards, I bumped into her sister but since I had received such foul treatment from her family, there wasn’t much that I wanted to say to her. Because I had figured that anything I said wouldn’t change a thing, I said, ‘So what.’ But when the student’s father came, I sincerely apologized to him numerous times.” He also said, “I do sports so I’m big in size and look intimidating. And if I had hit her, then her body should have shaken from impact in the footage.”

[NEWS] 100729 Yoochun’s Manager Booked Without Detention

Micky Yoochun’s manager has been booked without detention for assaulting a female high school student.

Team 3 of the Western Hwasung Police Station stated that, “During the interrogation, Mr. Park (The manager) admitted to pushing the student’s shoulder,” and “Swearing at someone or pushing someone is considered assault, so he was booked without detention.”

According to the police, the manager admitted to his actions against the student. The police stated, “It doesn’t matter whether or not Mr. Park slapped the student or not. Mr. Park has already admitted to his crime.” They also added, “There will be an additional investigation with the CCTV footage and statements for the witnesses.”

The case will be handed over to the Prosecution next month. There is a high possibility that Mr. Park will have his indictment suspended or receive a fine. A representative of the investigation team involved stated, “Because this is an assault case, it will end quickly with a suspension of his indictment or a fine,” and “Which of the two punishments he receives will depend on his past criminal records.”

A settlement between Mr. Park and the student would not greatly affect the penalty Mr. Park will receive. The police stated, “A settlement would only change the severity of the penalty,” and “If they were to reach a settlement, Mr. Park would more likely receive a suspension of indictment or a smaller fine.”

Mr. Park has been investigated by the police for assaulting a fan of Micky Yoochun who was taking a picture of the celebrity. Mr. Park stated, “The student was swearing profusely at me, so I lightly pushed her on the shoulder,” and “Her allegations that I slapped her are completely false.”

Mr. Park stated that he will accept the police’s judgment. He stated, “Because the police have stated that even pushing someone’s shoulder is assault, I will take the penalty,” and “I was hoping to reach a settlement but the student keeps saying that she was slapped and won’t back down. So, I have decided that it would be better to just receive the punishment I am given.”

[TRANS] 100730 Yunho's exclusive interview in

A man with charm is 'talk less, act more'

Jung Yunho is the interpreter of new generation, with mentality and spirit of youth, he is walking at forefront of time, to encounter the beauty of present and future.

What's the most memorable event in your life?
My most memorable event, I believe was when I become a singer. At that moment I really felt fantastic. The first moment I stepped on stage, the first performance, those situations were vividly remembered till now. Everyone was crying out my name, I became the protagonist on stage. In fact, it was a very incredible thing to me. I believe I will never ever forget this first time in my life.

You are going to perform in musical, what do you think of it?
It seems to me a new world has arrived. Now I am preparing for musical adaptation of 'Goong' from drama version. Although it is also a performance on stage, but I can feel a big difference from standing on stage as a singer. Musical performances not only singing, but also need to practice dancing, and learn acting skills. It is a performance which mixes songs, dance and acting together. In order to show everyone my best appearance and attitude, I am now practicing hard, so please come and support my transformation into a musical actor, .

What kind of requirements do you think a charming man should have? Do you think you are a charming man?
The most important requirements for a charming man is talk less and more action. The men who can properly preserve and protect something which is valuable to them, this kind of men is attractive. It seems hard to assess myself! I don't know whether I did well or not, but only know I have to work hard continuously and do well in my part.

What are your recent plans? What's your impression of Hong Kong?
I am currently busy preparing for musical 'Goong' which will begin in September. Since I can perform with experienced actors, I have learned a lot from them. Besides that, I have to go to Japan to promote my drama 'HTTG' and DVD. Since there are a lot of promotions and public related activities, I often need to go back and forth between Japan and South Korea and become very busy. HTTG's DVD ranked no.1 on Japan's Oricon Chart, I totally suprised by everyone's love and support... SMTOWN will start a world tour in August, so I am now preparing for it. I hope to meet everyone with a fresher and better look later, so please continue to love me.
About my impression of Hong Kong, I think Hong Kong is a gracious and convenient place. This time I come here for cover shoot, many fans are following me, and waiting for me at the airport, I fully feel their enthusiasm and support. I love the night view of Hong Kong, and the food is very delicious too, so every time I come to Hong Kong I can fully enjoy it before I go back.

What type of girls do you like?
I like girls who have lively and cheerful personality, as well as can take care of the others, and being confident, and can give me good advices oftenly.

[TRANS] 100729 ‘Hallyu Idol Challenge' – Yoochun vs. Hyun Joong

Moving from the stage to television dramas, SS501’s Kim Hyun Joong and DBSK’s Yoochun are now competing in a “Hallyu Idol Challenge”, where their self-pride is the reward for the ultimate champion.

SS501’s Kim Hyun Joong will once again be displaying his acting skills in MBC’s Mizuki drama [It Started With A Kiss] (broadcast begins 1 September) while DBSK’s Yoochun will transform into an actor in KBS’s television drama [SungKyunKwan Scandal] (broadcast begins 30 August), which will be screened every Monday and Tuesday. Both Hyun Joong and Yoochun, who are currently going through a tough time in terms of issues with their management companies and with their group, have caught the attention of the masses by marking their new start with acting. So far, Kim Hyun Joong and Yoochun have been competitors in the area of music. Hyun Joong proved his acting abilities in his perfect portrayal of senior Yoon Ji Hoo in [Boys Over Flowers]. Despite that, he was criticized for his lack of expression and pronunciation, and these will be the main obstacles he needs to overcome in the upcoming drama. Even though the current character is a 180-degree change from the one played in [Boys Over Flowers], Hyun Joong still hopes to play the character perfectly. In [Boys Over Flowers], senior Yoon Ji Hoo was often described as gentle, but the character in [It Started With A Kiss] is one who is cold-blooded and nonchalant towards all things.

After having seen both Taiwan’s and Japan’s versions of the drama, Kim Hyun Joong is now feeling the pressure of having to play out a character that is completely different (from his previous role). Yoochun, who is involved in the drama [SungKyunKwan Scandal], is also starting out his path as an actor with a lot of pressure. Even though he has been recognized for his abilities in the area of music, Yoochun is still considered a newbie in the area of television dramas. Yoochun is extremely gentle as an actor, a complete opposite from the strong disposition he carries when he is in DBSK. In [SungKyunKwan Scandal], Yoochun plays the lead role of a man who is perfect in everything and lacks in nothing.

Amongst the fans of television dramas that are based on original novels, a heated discussion has opened up around two mains points about Yoochun’s character – “Best Role” and “Similarity of The Character Played by Yoochun and Yoochun’s Personal Character”. In order to play the role out better, Yoochun, who is challenging acting for the first time, donned on the ancient costume required for the drama and cheerfully attended the press conference. Both colleagues and competitors at the same time, the television drama duel between both Kim Hyun Joong’s and Yoochun’s acting skills will definitely be something to anticipate and look forward to.

Does everyone still remember the touch meeting in 2007’s Summer Dream?

Yoochun saw this little girl, and called her over to kiss his face. The shy little girl went over and kissed Yoochun’s face in the cutest way, and even said ‘byebye!’ to him!

During the SungKyunKwan Scandal’s fan meeting on 24th July, there was also a little child who pouted her lips towards Yoochun and asked for a kiss, and she succeeded! Yoochun even returned her a kiss on the forehead! Simply jealous!

To see such a gentle man who loves his mother, his younger brother, little children and animals…how many of such men can there be out there?
