[TRANS] 100430 French Blog: Tohoshinki Stops Activities, French Fans Also Shocked

A couple of weeks ago, Japanese label Avex announced that the Korean vocal group will stop their activities, and are now planning on pursuing solo careers; one member will appear in a Japanese TV drama. There are still a lot of fans supporting their solo activities, but many of them still worry about their break from activities in both Japan and Korea.

French JPOP sites are also reporting the news. Although Tohoshinki isn’t as reputed in France (T/N: Meaning the fanbase isn’t as big as compared to other JPOP artists. Not so many merchandise and fan activity, etc.), their vocal ability is highly praised by a lot of fans.

French blog "Un mois au Japon," where a lot of JPOP and KPOP articles are posted, reported this news first.

And here's another one guys...from Max Matsuura himself:


Translation:

I did everything I can.
At the end of bitterness, I’ve decided to support my very best for their choice.

To them who are flying, if that is what they want I am planning to do everything I can.
It doesn’t matter what position I’m in,
my personal sadness is probably the same as the Tohoshinki fans.

This is truly a very hard time for us fans.
Also for the members themselves.
Jaejoong, Junsu, Yoochun, Yunho, and Changmin.

No matter what happens, let's hold on, okay?
Always keep the faith everyone.
We all need each other now.

I'm gonna go ahead....
*runs to the corner and cries*
