[VIDEO+TRANS] 110214 TVXQ Message for Chinese Fans



Sina Entertainment News (S): Let’s have the all new DBSG greet everyone first. [T/N: It really does say 'all new' in Chinese.]

HoMin: Hello, we are DBSG.

S: How do you feel about coming back with your new album Wae?

Yunho (Y): We feel great.

Changmin (C): It’s been two years and three months, right?

Y: Everyone’s become even more supportive of us despite having waited for so long, so we’re very happy.

S: Please introduce the musical style and leading track of your new album Wae.

C: This is the album we’re meeting everyone with after a long time, titled Wae. For not just the album but also our performance as a whole, we’ve worked hard to find a convergence line that allows us to keep our respective individualities yet blend well with each other.

Y: In addition, the album has songs of various genres. The most important leading track ‘Wae’ has a powerful beat and a fast melody, which are highly addictive. We hope everyone will show his support and interest.

S: Let’s talk about the choreography of ‘Wae’.

Y: The choreography this time for ‘Wae’ is more powerful than past ones. The energetic dance moves are the highlight, especially this part with ‘Keep your head down’. It involves bowing the head, just like what Changmin’s doing.

S: Are there highlights from the filming of the MV that you find memorable?

C: The one I found most memorable was actually not mine. We each had solo scenes, and my character concept was the manipulator of light, right?

Y: I was a manipulator of fire.

C: Honestly, he almost got burnt to death by the flames.

Y: Yeah, everyone might think those flames were CG effects, but they weren’t—they were real.

C: Really almost got burnt to death.

Y: It was very hot, but I completed the filming while holding my breath because I’d heard that you were likely to asphyxiate after constant inhalation of smoke.

C: I suddenly find it very scary.

Y: You do?

C: Not too much, I guess.

Y: Anyway, I almost got burnt to death.

C: That’s because it was our highlight.

S: How do the both of you usually manage and maintain your figures?

C: If it’s to manage your figure, first of all, from a health perspective, would be to eat well, sleep well, and laugh often.

Y: We also go to the gym for some exercise whenever we have the time to.

C: Many people have said we have better figures and look even manlier now. We’re really thankful to everyone.

Y: That’s right.

S: The both of you have been in television drama filmings recently. Were there any memorable moments during filming?

Y: Why don’t you talk about that famous production Paradise Ranch?

C: Speaking of memorable moments, should I talk about incidents or accidents? You could say one of them was a disaster. It happened while it was snowing on Jeju Island. It was snowing very heavily while we were driving past Hallasan, such that if ten cars were on the road, then nine would meet an accident. Although we had some trouble, the image of a snow-blanketed Hallasan was just too beautiful, so the cars next to it got into accidents.

Y: So the scenery was especially beautiful. Plus since it’s Jeju Island, I’m particularly envious.

C: A place where rock and wind are especially plentiful.

Y: There really are lots of rocks and wind. When I was on the set of Heading to the Ground, it was especially hot. I had to play football, and there were many action scenes. Since I was being filmed as I played, I often got hurt. The lighting got smashed while the football scenes were being filmed too, because I was too ambitious and kicked the ball too high. Recently, I’ve been taking part in the filming of Poseidon. Filming began only after the weather turned cold, and there’re scenes which require dives into the winter sea. Because it’s been too cold, there’ve been several instances where filming was cancelled.

S: Last year-end was DBSG’s seventh debut anniversary. Do you have any special feelings regarding this occasion?

C: We and our fans have been through a lot, but everyone has been as supportive as ever, for which we’ve always been thankful.

Y: Yeah, the number seven. The seventh anniversary is full of meanings.

C: What are these meanings?

Y: If I had to list them one by one, it’d be one of the reasons we’re still singing. After our seventh anniversary, we’ll work even harder and bring even more exciting performances. More than just the seventh anniversary, we hope to become a beautiful memory for the members and fans from now on.

S: Do the all new DBSG have plans to hold activities in China in the near future?

C: Our last visit to China to meet everyone seems like it happened so long ago.

Y: That’s right, it seems like SMTOWN was the last time.

C: Excluding visits with the rest of the company, it looks like our last DBSG-only visit took place a really long time ago.

Y: Yes, it’s really been a while.

C: Even though it was fun to visit with the rest of the company, we still hope to go on our own. We really want to meet everyone, though. We don’t have anything fixed as of now. As long as there’s a great opportunity to do so, we hope to meet everyone frequently.

Y: That’s right.

S: Everyone’s hoping you’ll come back to China soon. Please say a few words to the Chinese fans.

Y: Having come back with a new album only after two years and three months, we heard that everyone rushed to lend their support from afar, giving us a lot of strength. It’s made us feel that we have to keep working harder. We’ll bring you more exciting music and performances from now on, and we hope you can continue to keep your love and concern for us.

HoMin: This has been DBSG. Thank you.

[FANACC] 101127~101128 Worldwide Concert In Seoul

27th November Fanaccount (From A Chinese fan staying in Korea)

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us

I found my seat after entering and because I am at the first level of the viewing area which is not much higher than the area near the stage so I couldn’t snap beautiful red ocean but I saw it in the big screen and it was really beautiful. There was even snow accumulated beside my seat, it was so cold. As it snowed this morning and also the hail, they had to remove the roof and I even saw the car driving away those removed cloth. The three of them kept apologizing to us for not having the dome. The stage is big and perfect. Korean fans don’t have lightboards or so but at the 2nd level behind me, there’s a lighted banner which wrote “Yoochun ah, I love you”. Later at Yoochun’s solo, when it was ending, the cameramen gave a big focus on the banner.

Everyone started entering and because of the weather, rearrangements were made to the stage hence the time to enter was delayed. Just as people were still entering the venue when the lights and all were still on, suddenly they played a soothing music and it sound so familiar but I just cant remember what song was it >< . Then, the three of them suddenly walked out from backstage and said “Everyone enter the venue slowly, it’s ok, we’re still arranging the stage, slowly, don’t rush”(The others I cant really understand what they were saying, please forgive me, my Korean is already much better now compared to the past)

The three of them just said something, I don’t know why, with the music accompanying, although I cant understand, but I started to tear, they lost weight and were very skinny. Jaejoong trimmed his hair, its shorter now compared to the hair he has been maintaining for the past 2 years, looking younger. They spoke so warmly on stage and I kept crying, and a Korean fan sitting behind me saw it and stopped her conversation with her friend and consoled me.

After they were done speaking, they went backstage. The big screen was playing “Be My Girl” flashmob dance video. Finally it commenced, the opening song was “Empty” and they gave their best through out. I had the deepest impression on their solos, please forgive me, I cried when I returned because I was freezing. First it was Jae’s solo, very good, a bunch of sexily clad dancers surrounding him, removed his jacket and this tie. I am calm lol, he sang powerfully.

Then it was Yoochun’s solo, it was good too, he has some body clinging dance with the girls and although it was the dancers taking initiative, those American female dancers were really sexy.
Then it was Junsu, he was the most “obedient”, conducting the orchestra version of “Empty”, very charismatic. He sang his solo in the album then “Too Love” from Sungkyunkwan Scandal. Later in the MC, they talked about Sungkyunkwan Scandal and the big screen focus on Yeorim and Geol Oh seniors, they sat together, haha~~

In the MC part and the words they spoke after they sang, I can only understand a bit and the most was “Everyone is feeling cold right, although it is very cold, but please get warm together with us”. Actually they were freezing too, forgot who was it, should be Yoochun, he told us to have a warm bath and drink some hot soup after we get home, then he said “It’s really very cold” in those helpless Aegyo tone which was super cute. Then they kept apologizing to us because of the dome and everyone shouted it’s alright.

Their clothes were not as thick as us, especially Junsu in cloak sleeves, in Chajatta, should be because of the freezing weather, Jae missed one of his higher notes. It was really cold, when the big screen showed them singing, we could see smoke coming out from their mouth.
The most important thing was when we danced along to “Be My Girl”, it was awesome. The whole venue filled with red lightsticks, although my area for movement was small, but I gave all my effort on moving my hands along. It was like a Cassiopeia gathering, let me interrupt a sentence, the three of them looked so cute when they were swinging their waist. The only regret was because everyone was standing and dancing, the wave wasn’t that obvious.

After the flashmob, everyone lost their energy and were trembling back on their seats, it was so cold till my body was numb.

Then at the last song, “Empty” remix, they wore tracksuits which were so adorable, dancing cutely and the red ocean was really beautiful in the whole venue.
On my left were a group of Korean fans and on my right were a group of Japanese fans, I’m not sure of other areas and at the end, we were all trembling, the videos I took were all shaking because it was really so cold. I bit my lips and shouted with all my may while supporting. The Japanese fan and my voices were trembling and that Japanese fan almost cried. The Korean fan beside me was kicking her leg too to keep warm and I spread out my blanket and covered the three of us.

The fans shouted encore and they didn’t appear. All of us didn’t leave and insist on waiting, and gradually the lights were switch on but the broadcast was not played yet so we continued to show for encore. As last the broadcasting rang and Korean fans were still shouting noooooo. Ha the broadcast gave us a cute response, “Cannot also no choice, it had ended”. Everyone stayed for a bit and started exiting the venue gradually.

Regardless of them being alone or five, we all have to support.
Their decisions, their progression, we can only support them with all our heart.
Some fans said, they cant wait anymore, cant see hope anymore but I say, “As long as anyone of them has activities, that is hope. Wherever anyone of them goes, they can see our red ocean. That is the only thing we can do. Remember, their persistence is our motivation and our persistence is all the more their motivation.

28th November Fanaccount

At today’s concert, it was snowing continuously, it was so beautiful but I am very fortunate, because I only walked on the streets for 5 minutes and when I returned back to my hostel, I was enveloped with snow. If it snowed that heavily during the concert, even if we wear thicker, I bet at the end of the concert you will see thousands of snowman standing there.

At the beginning, Jaejoong fell but he got up quick and his smile …. is it painful?
Then during “Be My Girl”, it was the same as yesterday, the cameraman loves Junsu, both days were focusing on his thrusts and even shot his legs till waist up close. That twisting was nose bleed worthy. I even talked with the unnie on the right saying why is it always Junsu, the cameraman must have did it on purpose lol and the unnie was busying nodding excitedly to me.

The others were about the same as yesterday’s concert but during MC, there was an addition part where they showed their pictures on some equipment. Three lovely babies exhibiting their twitter pictures. They included the picture of Junsu being in the bathroom when he took in Shanghai.

Oh one thing that I was mad and wanted to die was, yesterday I was at the stand and furthermore I was on the 1st row but they didn’t go around the stadium in carts and today I was in the inner section and they went around and even sang at the small stage which was so near to where I was sitting at yesterday. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH T_T

Today, it was a couple sitting on my left and I believed the lady should be a fan. She sang along to quite a few of the songs and my recordings had some of her voice in it. On my right was a Chunnie fan because whenever Yoochun appeared, she always shout with all her might. I chatted a lot with her, chat and watch the concert together. She even explained to me some of the parts which I dont understand.

The few banners, they kept giving close up of them especially the one which wrote “Yoochun ah, I love you”, the fans were so happy and excited~~
Also, during today’s flashmob dance, it was proceeded with them dancing while going around on carts. Today there was two waves and the red ocean was exceptionally beautiful. But Junsu ah, why does your shaking hands actions looked like those ahjussi who cant dance lol, looked at your Jaejoong hyung, he shook rather suave.

Today I cried like mad. During Jaejoong’s “For you it’s separation, to me it’s waiting” the ending part I was crying and singing along. Also the song “Fallen Leaves”, I was crying while listening to it and Yoochun’s fan unnie passed me a tissue and made me smile.

Everyone seems to have chemistry during this two concerts. During the whole show, there wasnt shouts of Dong Bang Shin Ki, there was also no shouts of JYJ, it was just shouting of their own names and this is rather good, really.

Trio Hwaiting, Duo Hwaiting also!
We will always be here, we will not leave.

[TRANS] 100916 My Friend's Mom

I have a good friend who used to be a Cassiopeia. She was one for a good three years until she gave up on our boys and fell in love with another group~ (aish~~ back when she was a Cassie, I wasn't~~ I only came to 'meet' TVXQ in 07~)

One day, when I went to her house, I was shocked by the sight before me as I stepped in. On her desk was a glass board completely filled with pictures of our boys… there were at least 30 of them. I asked 'I thought you didn't like them anymore, why do you still have photos of them?'

My friend replied 'They're my mom's. my mom is kind of obsessed.'

I thought she was joking, so I didn't think much of it ~

Then my friend brought me to her parent's bedroom, and wow, it really was something else. The wall was covered with TVXQ posters and there were photo frames on her vanity as well as her bedside tables. Everything ini there was TVXQ, and that wasn't even the end of it. Her mom's favourite member is Jaejoong and so there was a photo of my friend's parents and Jaejoong. At first I thought they'd met him and taken a photo with him, but then I found out that she'd actually photoshopped the picture. I was completely in awe, that's some amazing skill right there!!!!

After that we went to look at the CD racks. I took a look and noticed that 80% of it was TVXQ CDs, there were even DVDs of the banjun theatres. I asked where she'd got them and my friend said that her mom had made them herself. (Isn't that just amazing, 45 year olds should not be able to do that)
Her mom had more DVDs/VCDs/CDs than I did.

Just as my friend and I were talking, her mom came home~~
As soon as she realized we were talking about TVXQ, she said 'Why aren't you watching their banjun dramas?? They're really really good, especially 'Dangerous Love'. It's Yunjae, oh my lovely boys!'
And then she went to cook…

She went into the kitchen and put on an apron before coming back out with a watermelon and sitting down to watch the banjun dramas with us. She didn't even realize she was supposed to be cooking dinner. As she was eating, she talked me through the upcoming telephone booth Yunjae scene. And as if that wasn't enough, she was so excited she had to put down her slice of watermelon and slam her hand against the wall to act out the scene for me~~ (I couldn't hold back my laughter anymore. I'd actually watched 'Dangerous Love' before and I knew the plot already, but because she seemed to fired up, I just lied and said I hadn't seen it. In the end, I was watching my friend's mom more than I was looking at the tv. She really was addicted… we're both TVXQ druggies~~)

As I left my friend's house, I asked her 'Doesn't your dad get jealous?' and she said 'He's gotten used to it. My mom is so obsessed with them she doesn't care about me anymore. She's always like 'oh my Jaejoong, oh my Yunho, oh my Junsu, oh my Changmin, oh my Yoochun…' (At this point I was completely speechless)

The mom mentioned in this is 45 years old ^^

[TRANS] 100831 Letter from Chinese fan Part 4

When the red reaches its limit, it becomes more than just that, it becomes an never-ending stretch of crimson. Looking back, you're hit by the realization that this crimson has become a part of your life, something you could never part with - Dong Bang Shin Ki. Their existence is akin to that of God, they're there, deep down in your heart.

SM dedicated years to these five miracles. Their talent and skill is phenomenal, they have personality as well as individual flair, their singing is outstanding and their dancing leaves their audience in awe. They are Dong Bang Shin Ki.

Dong Bang Shin Ki is the epitome of determination, it holds the faith of five separate entities. For these five, Dong Bang Shin Ki is everything. They are a family, Jaejoong the umma, Yunho the appa, the sons - Yoochun and Changmin, and the daughter - Junsu.

When Jaejoong injured his leg, Jung Yunho said 'If the person I love is unable to walk on their own, I'll be their legs.' And that's what he did. When Yunho was poisoned and hopsitalized, Jaejoong sat by his bed and protected him. When Junsu hurt himself, Jaejoong helped push his wheelchair and Changmin, Yunho and Yoochun took turns to check up on him every now and then. So many little things and there's only so much that we know, through photos, through news articles. We grieve, yet when we see the five of them standing together good and well, when we see them performing on stage, when we see them receive an award, when they broke the Guinness World Record, something in our hearts told us that this was more than enough. This is Dong Bang Shin Ki whom we love, the world's one and only, the best group in Asia.

We're drawn towards the five of them, entranced by the bond between them, their friendship, their love, and… No, that's not important. Slowly, gradually, we realize that the crimson has spread throughout our hearts, flowing with our blood, infiltrating the core of our existence. We are with them constantly, we think about them all the time, an image of them smiling at us etched deep in our hearts. We're not merely in love with Dong Bang Shin Ki, we trust them and we have confidence that they will last until the end of time.

When we hear word of devastation, we refuse to believe. We fight against it and we grieve over it. To the point where reading one article after one another brings tears to our eyes, like everything in us is being torn apart. People call it heartache, and that's really what it is.

Then the five were separated, 3+2=5. 3 came to represent JYJ. People have had their worries, their moments of doubt; is Dong Bang Shin Ki still Dong Bang Shin Ki? Still, we've kept faith. Dong Bang Shin Ki will always be Dong Bang Shin Ki.

When Yunho took hold of Changmin's hand on stage and hollered '1,2,3, Hello everybody, we are Dong Bang Shin Ki.' All the pent up emotions became tears of wistfulness, raging from our hearts through to our eyes. We reminisce, thinking back to the days when we'd see five figures standing on stage together as one, it was the picture of hope, glory and magnificence. Just as the clouds up above are inseparable from the sky, Cassiopeia's existence relies on Dong Bang Shin Ki. It is because of these five people that Cassiopeia has become a responsibility. It is because of them that we're willing to wait endlessly and unconditionally. It is because of them that we believe. They will be together and it will always be that way.

We will wait because we know they belong together. They are Dong Bang Shin Ki.

Thank you to every single one of you out there. Thank you Cassiopeia.

[FANACCOUNT] 100829 a-nation Tokyo Part 3

This is by a Chinese fan who went to a-nation.

I went to a-nation yesterday. Since I live pretty far away and I had to go to a meeting at my University beforehand, I left home at around 8 in the morning. After I attended my meeting, I took a bus to Shinjuku from Shibuya and then took the Keio line to the venue. The stadium was around 10 minutes walk away and it was 1:30 by the time I finally arrived. This was my first time there and it felt a lot like Tokyo dome. Since my friend and I arrived pretty late, we were worried that all the merchandise might have sold out so we quickly hurried over to the stand. There was a really long line and up ahead we saw a sign that said "JYJ T-SHIRT SOLD OUT'. Apparently only the JYJ shirts had sold out, tshirts for other artists were still in stock. As we were waiting to get to the front of the line, I scanned the rest of the crowd. I was in such a hurry on my way in that I didn't really take a good look around, when I did, I realized that almost everyone around me had an orange towel around their necks with 'JUNSU JEJUNG YUCHUN' in big bold print. I felt really happy then because no matter where I went, I'd bump into people with orange towels, even fan boys. Because I was so late, the t-shirts, bows and totes had all sold out and I only managed to buy a towel and a fan. The fan had a cartoon version of JYJ, kawaii.

When I was done buying merchandise, it was 2. My friend and I hurried into the stadium, found seats and sat down. A sudden loud noise shocked us both and we saw that Koda Kumi was first up on stage. People started to get excited as she walked on. Koda Kumi's singing is absolutely amazing, the studio and live versions are exactly the same. The Bigeasts/Cassiopeia that were there cheered really loudly for her, probably because she takes good care of our Dong Bang boys. She sat on a vehicle and went around the stadium once, waving to people along the way. A few singers that I didn't know the name of followed after that. Since it was right in the afternoon, the heat really was quite unbearable so my friend and I decided to go out and wander around for a bit because we were both only here for JYJ anyway, it didn't really matter whether or not we saw the other performances. We bought shaved ice but were still really hot afterwards. We agreed to go back in after the sun set and so we went back in at about 4. More artists we didn't know the names of performed… We waited… and waited… During the break, the cameraman panned the camera on the audience. We saw a few cute kids but then the camera suddenly focused on a few JYJ light boards, they wrote 'JYJ We Love You'. At that moment, a thunderous round of applause sounded throughout the stadium and everyone enthusiastically cheered for the girl holding the board. Then the cameraman zoomed in on even more fans with JYJ signs and merchandise, and everytime he did, the audience would applaud. Looking around, the entire venue seemed to be covered in orange. My friend is a new fan and didn't really know how legit us Cassiopeia/Bigeasts are so she was completely awestruck. DBSK has so many fans it's kind of scary.

People started to get restless at 6:30 and many started taking out their red glowsticks. There even seemed to be more members of staff all of a sudden. One held up a sign which said 'No video/audio recording or photography, even mobile phone photography'. There were lots of staff around us watching our every move so we couldn't take any photos or film anything even if we wanted to. In front of me, a girl took a photo, but then got her camera confiscated and was told that it'd be returned after the concert. Despite this, I still managed to sneak in a few shots.

After a while, JYJ appeared on the big screen. All the red glow sticks came on around the stadium and the screams hit peak. Cassiopeia/Bigeast completely took over the concert. Even though you weren't the focal point of the concert and even though your performance wasn't particularly long, we gave you your red ocean. I wanted to take a photo of the red ocean, but couldn't because the security was so tight.

Then Jaejoong appeared followed by Yoochun and Junsu. My immediate thought was that Junsu had lost some weight and then I noted how cute he looked with his new blonde hair. I'd thought that Yoochun would've cut his hair short by now since filming for his drama was already over. In the end, he still brandished the same long hair and his wide forehead. Jaejoong ah, he was still as handsome as ever.

After the first song was over, it was time for Junsu's solo. His amazing singing and sexy dancing had the audience screaming incessantly throughout his performance. Then it was time for soulmate's 'Colors'. Jaejoong and Yoochun stood on opposite sides of the stage and then swapped positions. In the middle when they were singing "lalala', the sound was completely phenomenal. On the last line, Jaejoong playfully stopped singing and just as Yoochun got ready to sing, he said 'hold on a moment' and then started laughing….

They then performed some songs from their new album. When they were singing 'Get Ready', the fans sang along with them at the 'OK'. When they got to 'W', I really couldn't hold my tears in anymore, the lyrics really brought tears to my eyes, but since I had a friend beside me, I tried to contain myself. Shockingly, my friend started to cry before I did and I burst into tears with her. When their performance was finally over, nearly all of Cassiopeia/Bigeast was in tears. The stadium was completely covered in red. I'm grateful to the Japanese fans, thank you for your unconditional love for them.

As Junsu walked off stage, he turned back longingly to look at the red ocean. His eyes seemed to brim with tears….

My friend and I left after JYJ's performance was over. Even though we felt slightly apologetic to the artists who performed afterwards, I had to leave because I live so far away and I was afraid I wouldnt be able to catch the bus.
Being able to see JYJ had me completely content.

Even though I'm really tired, seeing JYJ made me really happy. My only regret is that I went in heels and now I'm so tired that I'm afraid to walk.

A-nation really moved me. Those of you who haven't seem them live really should go and take a look for yourselves. Seeing fan videos is nothing compared to seeing them live.

[TRANS] 100824 From a Mother to Cassiopeia

Hello everybody. I am a mother of a Cassiopeia and this was written quite a while ago...

My daughter pretty much never switches off her computer, she spends all day every day on Korean sites or here on Baidu, surfing the web.
I'm sure there are a lot of people here who like TVXQ as much as my daughter does, if not more.

My daughter is 16 years old. Back when she was 12 years old, I remember he buying a TVXQ album and sneaking it home. Four years have passed and many things have happened…

Ah.. My daughter, sometimes she sits in her room crying, other times laughing. Whenever we're sat around the table at dinner, she'll jabber on and on about TVXQ, about Yunho to me and her dad. It's almost as though she's gone insane.
Every now and then, she'll talk to me about going to Korea for days and days. I remember her telling me you fans were organizing some kind of group dance this summer? (flashmob) When she was young, we used to send her everywhere and pick her up afterwards. She rarely goes on public transport because our home is simply too far away from the city. I still remember her excitement when I agreed to let her go to practice sessions for the flashmob. Her father said 'Will you be dancing to songs of TVXQ? Don't muck up and embarrass yourself~' I nearly laughed.

That morning, she went off with her friends to catch the bus and still hadn't come home after 6. I panicked. She wasn't picking up her phone, and it wasn't until 7 that she was finally home. Her father said in relief 'I thought you wouldn't be able to make it, but you managed to get back yourself' And from then on, she went to dance practices every week, and sometimes she'd even practice in front of us. I've never seen her take anything so seriously before.

I remember once last year, when we were having dinner, she was arguing over something with her dad… I think it was about TVXQ. She said she wasn't going to eat and was absolutely fuming. I kept asking, but she paid no attention to me. In the end, I found out that she'd wanted to see TVXQ in Shanghai.

In early April this year, I noticed how she seemed to always be in a bad mood, I honestly thought she was suffering from depression~~ When I brought it up, she told me 'TVXQ's activities have been suspended' through sobs~ Her dad heard and commented 'Have they disbanded? I told you idol groups don't last for long.' Something in my daughter's eyes changed and she started screaming at her dead. Screaming and crying her heart out all at the same time. 'Who says they're disbanding?!'

To all you fans, maybe you love TVXQ as much as my daughter does. Maybe they're the first thing you think of. You're people who are willing to sacrifice so much, everything, for TVXQ.. People have told my daughter that she'll stop liking them once she's older, that she's only interested because they're young and handsome, but she insists that it's because of their talent, of their charm~~

In being a fan, I hope you treat your idol as your motivation and target so that you're able to achieve the things you want in life.
As fans, I hope you're able to make your idols proud. TVXQ are great kids, I thought it was just an infatuation at first, but now I sincerely believe in faith and determination. Please continue to protect your idols!
Don't forget: In protecting those you love, you must also work towards making yourself a better person and make your idols proud.

There are lots of you out there who are high school students, university students or even working adults. Please be the best you can be and keep your faith for TVXQ. Loving someone is no simple feat, you'll understand when you grow older. But watching you guys and seeing your love for them has made me realized how much you've grown as a result of this fandom. You've all really matured.

Finally, I'd like to thank TVXQ and to thank you Cassies (is that what you're called?) You've really helped my daughter along the way. She's changed so much. She now knows the meaning of determination, of faith and belief. Everybody hwaiting!

[TRANS] 100810 Chinese Cassies to Release Album Dedicated to TVXQ

Details:
1. All tracks on the album were written and composed by Chinese Cassiopeia
2. In addition to the songs which have already been released, there will be 8 other tracks on the album
3. This is the first ever full album made for TVXQ (A copy will be sent to the boys)
4. There will be Chinese, Korean and English versions of each track

To the boys who've touched each and every one of us with their music,

This is something that's been in the works for 5 years now, and it's finally going to be released.
It is a gift for all of Cassiopeia,
whilst the lyrics may be simple, this is our way of conveying our never-ending love.
We may not be real singers, but we are true Cassies,
every note in this song holds a promise we've made to the boys and to ourselves.

(The song doesn't start till around 01:08)
IF IT DOESN'T START PLAYING AUTOMATICALLY,
THERE SHOULD BE A BOX WITH A SCROLLBAR ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THE PAGE,
CLICK ON THE LINK THAT SAYS ''仙后之歌(Only Five)2009-10-15'

I've translated the lyrics below so that those of you who don't understand Chinese will be able to follow along.

We've given you all our time, it's for you to decide baby
We've given you all our love, it's for you to keep baby
From the moment I fell in love with you, I decided that
No matter how difficult it may be, I will stay by your side
The stars tell me it is my duty to protect you
No matter how far, regardless of the hindrances, we are determined to stay
You made me understand what's really worth waiting for
I've given you my wholehearted love in exchange for yours

Chorus
Only 5 Forever 5
There's nothing that could replace it
As long as you're here, we'll never be alone
Only 5 Forever 5
We'll never be apart
Nothing will ever stop our love for you

We've been with you along the road, through ups and downs
All our experiences have become memories, stored in my diary
From the moment you fell in love with us, did you also decide that
No matter how difficult it may be, you'll stay by our side
I've listened with my heart, to every word you've said
We've shared your happiness, your tears and I'll always understand
Our promise is not only to wait with you

Chorus

Please don't forget, there are stars up above
The meaning of the colour red is that we'll forever be by your side
My Love

Chorus

Please don't forget that we Cassiopeia will always be here

[TRANS] My teacher is a Cassiopeia

I am studying in a high school in Japan, almost half of my class are Cassiopeias. Speaking of this, I must give credit to my class teacher...

My teacher is a 45 years old, beautiful temperament lady, who is responsible in teaching us chinese language. She is a humorous and nice lady. She became Cassiopeia 1 year ago and is currently intoxicated by TVXQ.

First, let me introduce the glorious history of my teacher.

She set the 7th period class of every Tuesday and Thursday as "TVXQ's DVD appreciation lesson". Every time, she will pull down a large screen, and plays various DVDs of TVXQ which she brought from home. There were concerts, "History in Japan" series and so on. Sometimes she will sing and dance along while watching DVD of their concerts. However, her ability in dancing and singing is a bit...... so my class usually burst into laughter because it was too funny. Once because we laughed so hard, we were scolded by school director....

Got once she finished her teaching earlier, and we got nothing to do. We were silent for a while, then she suddenly said, "Since we still got a lot of time, how 'bout we talk about TVXQ?" And all of us agreed. Then we started our "General knowledge of TVXQ" lesson. My teacher is indeed a super fans, from TVXQ's each member's name, height, blood group, experiences, she can remember all of them clearly. She knows almost everything I knew. She told us that she originally thought only TVXQ's fans would listen to her when she brought up this topic. She did not expect everyone would listen to her seriously, and she was very happy.
Therefore, starting from that day, we have our own "General knowledge of TVXQ" every time we finished our lesson earlier.................

(omitted)

My class is going to take part in music festival in September. When the class monitor asked our teacher which songs should we choose, without hesitation she said, "Of course is TVXQ's song, does anyone have objections to that?" The whole class unanimously answered, "Nope!" After hearing our answers, my teacher said joyfully,"I knew you guys will answer that, you guys are the most adorable kids! Ah! You guys really understand me well!"
Finally, we decided to sing "Why Did I Fall In Love With You?" and the other song in chorus, while singing she praised "The harmony parts of TVXQ are really beautiful, we have to work hard like them too!"

Last month, my teacher went to JYJ Tokyo Dome concert and dragged her son along with her. When she came back, the first thing she told us was, "Ah! I am going to die! I was killed by Jejung!" This led to the exchanging glances from whole class. My class monitor said, "Teacher, you are not a little girl anymore, why are you so excited?"
After she finished this sentence, my teacher said, "When you mentioned about little girl, I remembered one thing. During the concert, Yuchun will invite a girl on stage when singing 'my girlfriend' right? So I was thinking, since he already selected 16, 17 years old girls in the first three concerts, will he select a middle-aged woman? So I asked my son, what to do if I was selected. However my son without any hesitation, answered me that it was impossible to happen. My heart immediately broke into pieces........." (omitted 10 000 words of sad description from my teacher)

There is a beautiful landscape at the back of our classroom, which is ------ giant posters and calendars of TVXQ. Well, of course, that's my teacher's masterpiece. She said that she is more energetic in teaching us when looking at TVXQ.

These are the glorious history of my class teacher. To be honest, I have never heard of such lovely teacher.

Now we are practicing 'Why Did I Fall In Love With You?' and purple line. The dance steps of purple line are really difficult.
I am going to a-nation on 28th of August with my classmates. Thinking of being able to see Junsu, Jejung and Yuchun, I am overwhelmed with happiness......

Lastly, I want to shout the phrase that I always shout with my classmates and teacher: TVXQ FIGHTING!

JYJ a-nation Fighting! Ho-Min SMTOWN LIVE Fighthing! I am going to attend both of them!

[TRANS] 100731 To all of Cassioepia: It's been a year...

Today is a day that no Cassiopeia would ever forget. It's been a year, and it's gone by in a blink of an eye, hasn't it?

We've waited an entire year, and in truth, it is undeniable that this period has really shown to us all how much we genuinely love our boys.

Throughout this time, we've had our doubts, our worries and even conflicts amongst ourselves, but all that is behind us now, we've made the decision to stay, and to keep waiting. Cassiopeia is a force to be reckoned with, seeing our enthusiasm, it's almost as though nothing ever happened. Every now and then, we may speak of our boys, about how much we miss them, but it's only because we want to see the five of them together again. We motivate one another, we encourage those around us to stay positive, and we vow to wait together; I'm proud of what we've achieved, of this entire fandom.

Many of us have shed tears, and yet we continue down this path because we believe. The boys have our unconditional and wholehearted faith and patience.

Some say they are charmed by our boys' looks, some by our boys' music, and some by our boys' love and emotion. Me? I'm a fan of these fans.

Others may not ever be able to comprehend this kind of unconditional love that we fans have to offer, yet we sacrifice it anyway, to a point where we could almost be deemed reckless and foolish. Even if we may never see those that we love, we love them anyway, regardless of other people's words, perception and lack of understanding.

It is magical, the way the emotions of others are able to affect our own.

Some say that to be a fan of an idol group is to inflict pain upon oneself. Groups inevitably separate, leaving fans with no choice but to focus their support on one particular member. On the other hand, we are Cassiopeia, and each and every one of us knows that we will continue to support DBSK as a whole regardless of the outcome of this difficult situation, wouldn't you agree?

And after writing all this nonsense, my one hope is that all of you will continue to wait, to support and to protect our boys.

Those of you that have twitter, please tweet #imissdbsk, thanks!

[TRANS] 100725 Letter from Chinese fan Part 3 - Do you remember?

Jung Yunho,
Do you remember when Jaejoong sang 'I want to be your bed..' to you on a variety show?
Do you remember Park Yoochun? The boy who used to appear on variety shows with you, and once 'stole' away the girl you liked?
Do you remember Kim Junsu? The boy who'd take you home with him during your trainee days, and who had a relationship with you closer than that of blood-related brothers?
Do you remember in Couple Talk, when Changmin said you were the reason that Dong Bang Shin Ki is as successful as it is?

Kim Jaejoong,
Do you remember that variety show in Japan, where you hurriedly thrusted a biscuit at Yunho after eating food so spicy that even you had difficulty swallowing?
Do you remember in that Q&A session where you and Yoochun both said that you were the first to cry at the award ceremony, but all other members picked Chun?
Do you remember that concert, where you pushed Junsu around the stage on his wheelchair?
Do you remember when you first debuted, when you stole Changmin's pajamas so you could appear more friendly to the fans?
Park Yoochun,
Do you remember being on X-man at 15, when you were embarrassed and awkward, and Yunho, who was on the other team, kept sneaking over to pat your shoulder?
Do you remember your hyung Jaejoong's aegyo?
Do you remember Kim Junsu, the boy who didn't like you at first, but went on to write songs with you as years passed by?
Do you remember Shim Changmin, the boy who never cried nearly as much as you, but couldn't hold back his tears at the award ceremony?

Kim Junsu,
Do you remember how Yunho spontaneously decided to change the lyrics to 'My heart is filled with Junsu'?
Do you remember how Jaejoong said that your heart is like the ocean and your eyes are like a lake?
Do you remember how you said "I want to become Yoochun so I can find out whether or not my big forehead will get cold?"
Do you remember how you said that Changmin eats more when he has a good appetitie, when he is sick, when he's happy and when he's unhappy?

Shim Changmin,
Do you remember how you bent your knee slightly during an interview so that Jung Yunho would appear taller?
Do you remember how you said that the present you wanted most was for Jaejoong's leg to heal as soon as possible?
Do you remember Park Yoochun, the boy who never stops crying, but held tightly on to you when you cried?
Do you remember Kim Junsu, the hyung who you'd annoy the daylights out of just so you could play football together?

Dong Bang Shin Ki,
Do you remember?
Jung Yunho who said that the greatest event in his life was meeting his 4 other members.
Kim Jaejoong who said that the reason that your friendship is stronger than anyone else's is because you breathe, speak, eat and sleep in the same room…
Park Yoochun who said that you will be together for the 2nd album, the 20th album, the 200th and the 2000th..
Kim Junsu who said that he would leave if any other member left.
Shim Changmin who said that Dong Bang Shin Ki can only exist when the five are together.

Cassiopeia,
Do you remember?
Who is it that shouted 'I love you, Cassiopeia!' after delivering a speech at an award ceremony?
Who is it that said 'Stay with us forever Cassiopeia, in 20 years time, come and support us along with your children, it's a promise!'
Who is it that said 'I want to sing, I have to sing, I have to sing till the day that I die' even as his voice was changing?
Who is it, that despite the ill-treatment he received during a signing event, smiled brightly at the fans as he thanked them, and told the crying fans not to cry?

This part of the past is ours and nobody can take away these memories.
We will not forget, we will never forget.

For so long, you've worked so hard to be the Dong Bang Shin Ki that Cassiopeia can be proud of,
and we, Cassiopeia, have become your motivation.
All separation and suffering is temporary because we believe we will reunite.
We have not given up because you have not either.
We will wait, and our driving force are our memories.

Those who leave will come home one day because you are completely unique.
Those who are waiting will continue waiting, because there is no one in the world more deserving of our love.
Let's promise one another this: As long as you keep singing and dancing, and pursuing your dream, we will continue to be your red ocean.
Remember your promise. 20 years from now, when you release your 2000th album, we will be together, forever and ever.
Until the day when we grow old and you hold yet another concert, we will sing 'Forever Love' and 'Miduhyo' together, and as we part, we will have smiles upon our faces.
Promise us that you'll live well.

Always Keep the Faith.
