A short meeting with Bae Yong Joon ssi. 2011/06/30 10:59
A short meeting with Bae Yong Joon ssi. Yesterday, I met Bae Yong Joon ssi in an elevator in Cheongdam-dong. His voice was very friendly. “Have a nice day.” Mayor Oh Se Hoon’s voice, Ji Hyeon Woo’s voice, and Neo’s voice are my favorite voices. It seems that I have to add one more voice. Bae Yong Joon’s voice. It’s really nice to hear it! He is a world star, but there was no one escorting him. A short, comfortable and quiet meeting with him made me very happy. His voice lingers on. It was a memorable day.

[Yonsama visited us.]
Today, Yonsama visited our company. After he had a secret meal at the VIP room, he left with his sunglasses on and wore his hat covering part of his face. But who wouldn’t recognize him.. hahaha
Everyone furiously fought each other to serve him since a week ago, but unexpectedly I was chosen to serve him..
I’m not interested in entertainers and it’s hard to serve the customers in the VIP room, because the VIP room is on the second floor. I refused to do it, but..
Today, all of the female employees were excited. hahaha

A Journey in Search of Korea's Beauty, Bae Yong Joon
Bae Yong Joon. Today I found a new book. It made me think that we could not hurt BYJ’s heart. Ah… “A different view from what I had thought,..” as I flipped past another page. Opening his closed heart, He has achieved a lot early considering his age. Because he did not get experience parts of his youth, it made me hope that he can find different happiness later. Like his appearance, his soft and kind character stands out. With everything that he has achieved so early in his life, it also tells the story of how he lost a lot as well. After achieving so much fame and fortune through his work, I hope that now he can take the time to find at least find one special relationship... After encountering yet another book, I was able to confront a new welcoming face...
[News] Kim HyunJoong, 'I want to help Bae Yongjoon hyung on his wedding' Source: Nate Translated by: Stephanie (@Stephiie4SS501/ 東方5AS1) Please leave the credits remain intact when repost. TQ! :) [Note from Stephanie : There might be inaccuracy in translation, if spotted any, feel free to correct me]
Kim HyunJoong said he wanted to help out in Bae YongJoon's wedding.
On 18th of June, we met Kim HyunJoong who came back with his solo album in Guerilla Date on 'Entertainment Weekly' which was broadcast in KBS2.
When he was asked what type of topics he would usually talk about when meeting with Bae Yongjoon, he told us frankly, 'It's usually what men would be talking about, and sometimes about women.'
Kim HyunJoong also urged Bae YongJoon should get married soon. He said, 'It's okay if I'm still a virgin but YongJoon hyung shouldn't be'.
He added, 'It's okay I'm still a single because I'm still young, YongJoon hyung should get married. I want to help out.'
Additionally, he said he is the No.1 'Shenyang Star of the Country' (bringing glory to the country), he thanked his fans saying, 'I wanted to help more people, hoping so that to be loved by more people, not only at this moment only.'
I came to the tee off exhibition test for golf moms. I heard that Bae Yong Joon is here too, but my ball fell into the water.
suehan: I couldn’t quite understand some parts of her twit, but I’m sure she heard that BYJ also came to the golf course. Later she twitted again saying that she couldn’t meet BYJ.
On a random day, Somewhere in a remote area in Gyeongsangnam-do, The way that we could get Bae Yong Joon’s autograph is,
Yonsama came to play golf where my wife, Mrs. Park Tae Soon, goes to work everyday (she works at the restaurant in the golf course). A few days ago, he came to play golf as well, but he didn’t give her an autograph because he said that he didn’t have paper.
He came back yesterday, and brought lots of pictures of him. Suddenly, a signing session was held. Haha.. She wanted to take a picture of him, but wasn’t allowed to do so.
In her words, “His complex is fair, his face is as small as a fist, and he has a big body.”
I envied Gong Hyeong Jin when he came, but not Yonsama.
Bae Yong Joon is in the middle of preparing for a Hallyu Idol Group.
Known as “BYJ Brand,” it is said that the idol group will debut early next year at the earliest.
A major shareholder for Keyeast, BYJ is in the middle of preparing to push forth in the music industry. Starting with Kim Hyun Joong’s solo album, he will be debuting a male idol group to follow.
Someone involved with the project, “We are searching for various ways to slowly make a strong presence on the music industry rather than being too impulsive.”
Keyeast has been working towards debuting next year by already selecting the upcoming talents and training them.
Someone who is a part of Keyeast says, “The selection team was able to pick the new members through auditions. They plan to go ahead and search for many talents in the future as well.” But they don’t have many details regarding the group itself, including the number of members or an exact date for their debut.
It looks as though BYJ will be a prominent force in the debut of the group.
At Kim Hyun Joong’s recent showcase, he said, “BYJ studies about music a lot. Under the guidance of BYJ’s production work, I received a lot of support from him both emotionally and financially during the production of my album. This is a subtle implication of BYJ’s dedication to becoming a part of the music industry.

A while ago on Radio 89.1, Kim Hyun Joong came on the radio program hosted by Choi Gang Hee and spoke a lot about our Bae Yong Joon.
He spoke quite a bit about BYJ with Choi Gang Hee. ^ ^ I heard that when Choi Gang Hee went to BYJ's hospital room when he was sick, BYJ laughed while telling her stories about Hyun Joong.
He said that Hyun Joong was cute, and it made him laugh just thinking about Hyun Joong.
Also, The way that Hyun Joong met BYJ was...
A lot of people said that him and BYJ looked very similar. So he jokingly replied saying that he was interested in meeting BYJ. Hwang Ryong ssi and Hyun Joong's manager arranged for the two stars to meet.
He said that he was starstruck when he met BYJ for the first time... Hehehe. But now he said that BYJ is just like any other person~
Even Choi Gang Hee also said that she became starstruck looking at BYJ and Hyun Joong siting together at the "Jjejje Love" movie premiere. She says that now, she sees him like any other person as well.
Also... Hyun Joong asked BYJ if he would dance once while they were around meeting fans at the Tokyo Dome. BYJ agreed to do it. KHJ even said that he picked the song for BYJ, but BYJ couldn't dance because of his herniated cervical disc.
They also talked about "Strong Heart."
The audience sent in letters commenting on how BYJ found Hyun Joong to be cute and cared for him. Anyways, they spoke for quite some time. (This interview came on between 8:20 to 8:40pm)
**Also, Hyun Joong... He never knows what will come out of his mouth when he speaks. His agency advised him not to speak. Hehe...
On June 13th, SBS’s “Good Morning from Bae Ki Wan, Choi Young Ah, and Cho Hyung Gi” reported Kim Hyun Joong’s showcase, “BREAK DOWN,” his first solo mini album.
(omitted)
In the interview, Kim Hyun Joong expressed his appreciation for Bae Yong Joon, an actor and the CEO of his agency, by saying, “He supported me and advised me about choreography and acting while monitoring me.”
suehan: On SBS’s “Strong Heart,” Kim Hyun Joong was about to tell a story he titled “I hit the back of Yonsama’s Head.” Everyone was shocked when reading the title! How could anyone do that to Yonsama??
The actually story was explained afterwards.

SS501’s Kim Hyun Joong revealed an incident where he was mistaken to be actor Bae Yong Joon because he couldn’t speak Chinese.
On the June 7th broadcast of SBS’s “Strong Heart,” Kim Hyun Joong was a guest as a part of the ‘Special Strong Heart King of Kings’ episode.
During the broadcast, he revealed that people call him a “Bae Yong Joon look-alike” and “2nd generation Bae Yong Joon.” Because of the similarities, he was once mistaken as Bae Yong Joon by Chinese fans during the Asian Games. Kim Hyun Joong stated, “A Chinese fan asked for my autograph but handed me a picture of Yong Joon hyung.”
At that time, Kim Hyun Joong repeatedly stated in English, “No! No Bae Yong Joon,” because he couldn’t communicate with the Chinese fan. However, the Chinese fan misunderstood him and thought ‘Bae Yong Joon’ wouldn’t sign the autograph for him because he was annoyed by him. The fan persistently followed Kim Hyun Joong around until finally swearing at him and leaving his side.
Kim Hyun Joong stated, “Well, that’s how I got rid of one Bae Yong Joon fan” – drawing much laughter from the guests and audience.

suehan: Here is also the video clip of “Strong Heart” where the show animated him hitting the back of Yonsama’s head playfully. The clip was uploaded by boonseangbae on byjintoronto.
