[Photo + Translation] Kim Hyun Joong Interview on Choa (Japanese) Magazine #19








Japan First Solo Album "UNLIMITED" Release Event :


Kim Hyun Joong (26) had a premium event in Tokyo in commemoration of the release of
his first solo album in Japan, " UNLIMITED ". Though he did not sing, but music videos
of "Your Story" and "Save Today" were presented. He had an interesting talk with
his guests, a self-appointed cheer leader, KABA-chan as well as Kazuko Kurosawa

(female comedian).


After eleven months since his Japan debut on January 25, 2012, the first album
" Unlimited " has eventually been released. Every song including the new three songs
as well as Kiss Kiss/Lucky Guy and Oricon No.1 single " Heat " produced by B'z
were sang in Japanese. Kim Hyun Joong talked showed his passion for the album
during the talk of the event.


1/ Music video of " Your Story " has been released
HJ: This is the second song I sing with band style following " Heat ".
I have been enhansening this song for a long time so that I can sing it in an
album someday. I have some more songs which I will sing as a band music.
I would like to produce these songs in future.


2/ Where the shooting took place ? ( about "Save Today ")
HJ: It took place in the set in Korea. The idea of the concet is that we go back
to the past. So I moved with the double speed of the other people, while they were
walking very slowly. I would like to show it if the making video is available now.
It was very hard for me to sing a song very rapidly while the music being reproduced
fourfold ( He tries to show how rapid he sang )



3/ The concet of the title?
HJ: It means " Unlimited potential in growing " I would like to continue to grow.
That is why I choose this title.



4/ How do you review this year ?
HJ : Stretching myself out at home, I asked myself " What did I do this year ? "
(the audience burst into laughter ) I would like to spend much busier days the next
year.



5/ The concept of the album ?
HJ : I put my feeling " Please do not let me go which means I do not want to lose you "
I do not want to lose this moment when you give a big love to me.



6/ What is your plan the next year?
HJ : I am going to start 2013 with Japan nation-wide tour. I also plan to release a
full album in Korea. I will also show you Kim Hyun Joong as actor in the drama.
I have another plan to start World tour at the end of the year. I will also release a
single album in Japan. So it will be a very busy year for me. I hope that you will
give me your support which will give me power when I feel tired.
