[Trans] 100427 From U-Know Yunho To Yoona, SM Audition Footage Revealed

The audition is something every celebrity trainee must go through at least once. Even those who have become stars once had to knock on the doors of every entertainment agency and go through tens to even hundreds of auditions.

SM entertainment is the creme de la creme of entertainment agencies in Korea. Countless hopefuls wish to be given a spot in their trainee system. SM’s top stars like TVXQ, Girls Generation and Super Junior all had to go through auditions back before they became famous.

A video containing footage of SM artistes during their trainee days, or even during their auditions, has been garnering attention from netizens in various portal sites.

Girls Generation’s Yoona and Yuri, as well as Super Junior’s Kibum and Heechul stand out. Their looks are as stunning then as they are now. However, their slightly young and simple look differs from their made-up appearances of today.

TVXQ’s members U-Know Yunho, Choikang Changmin and YoungWoong Jaejoong all look very cute. They seem so innocent as they look awkwardly at the camera.

Netizens were seen leaving comments such as, “They were so cute. It’s interesting to see what they looked like before they became stars.” “Yoona and Yuri look like babies. I was surprised to see how young they looked.”

[TRANS] 100418 SungKyunKwan Scandal Casting Team: "Yoochun has rejected a lot of drama productions in the past."

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 TVXQ 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.

[TRANS] 100418 Disbandment Rumours Unclear: TVXQ's Path Has Been Tough

Since the 2004 official debut of TVXQ, through seven years of hard work, they finally stand at the peak of Asian music. But just right when they have countless fans' support, rumours arise of disbandment and contract problems. Today Haibao Net will bring everyone and look back at TVXQ's growth from their debut. No matter if TVXQ disbands or stays together, Cassiopeia who has believed faithfully in them would not let them go.

Three members of TVXQ, Kim Jaejoong, Park Yoochun and Kim Junsu have sued SME near the end of 2009 for a suspension of their exclusive contract, leading to a pause in TVXQ's activities in Korea. Months later, on the 3rd of April, a message on their Japanese homepage wrote "from today onwards, Tohoshinki will be on hiatus".

This piece of information basically reports TVXQ's disbandment, and this is something that neither Korean or other fans want to see, but the three and SME have something in between them that can't be ignored, and with SME holding the rights for the band name, for 'TVXQ' to restart could practically be zero.

After that notice, everyone was alert on what the five would do. On the 14th of April, Avex announced that TVXQ's three members, Kim Jaejoong, Park Yoochun and Kim Junsu made a new contract with them, and would form a new unit to begin activities in Japan. Jaejoong has also participated in the 2010 Spring drama "Sunao ni Narenakute", acting along with Eita and Ueno Juri.

From 1999 till 2003, they together had prepared for five years for the debut of TVXQ. In 2004, TVXQ's single "Hug" acted as their official debut, and within a short span of time, they used their unique charms and SME's huge backup to make TVXQ into Asia's top idol boyband. TVXQ was brought up by SME who had also produced popular groups like H.O.T and S.E.S, and using that knowledge, they trained up a top boyband, and took up the praise of "perfect idols".

In 2005, TVXQ debuted in Japan with the single "Stay With Me Tonight", and till now they have released a total of 30 singles and 4 albums. Under present market conditions, up till the end of March, TVXQ's gross total of record sales surpasses 5,130,000. At the same time these figures made are the best for a foreign artist in Japan.
