[Translation] Kim Hyun Joong Video Message To Fans During Phantasm World Tour 2014

I have debuted for almost 10 years already. There’s a Korean saying that after 10 years, even the rivers and mountains would have changed. 10 years, a period where you can’t say it is too long or too short. Also, I have performed at this venue when I just debuted. On the same stage, seeing the same fans, I feel extremely moved. I will come to China more often to visit you in the future. I wish that I will be able to see you on the same stage again.

Timing: 2:59-3:12

Phantasy

A time like a dream

I don’t wish to say it’s ending

Don’t wish to wake up

If end, time can be reversed……

Start…anew from the beginning?

I really want

Us to be together forever

Timing: 3:21-4:35

When I feel that I am alone

Alone

When I am tired, you are my shade…

When I feel that I am alone

Alone

In times of trouble, you protected me

When I feel that I am alone

When I feel that I am alone

Alone

You made me feel that I am not alone

They

Are the people watching this video

Now please let me feel you

I am very grateful to you

I love you very much

To My Beauty

Timing: 4:44 onwards

I have always used my slightly cold personality as an excuse

So I did not interact much with you

And the words I have not said to you for a long time

Will say it all today,

Now, let me say the words you wish to say

Everyone~~

Dear, I love you

Thank you

And

I everyday

Miss you

I really miss you very much

Now, let me say the words you wish to say

The words that need to be said now

Encore! Encore! Encore!

[Fan Account] From a Male Fan Attending Shanghai Concert : Kim Hyun Joong Phantasm World Tour 2014

This is my first time seeing him in person

I was seated in the front area, more to the left side. When he approached to the left, I can see his face clearly. I cannot describe the excitement within me. All i wanted is to stand as tall as I can to see him. I was standing so upright to a point that the girls behind me got irritated because I was blocking their view.

For a moment i thought he was looking over to my side and I have gotten eye contact. Or maybe it is because I am a male fan thus taller than the rest of the girls. And I am also holding my camera up high. Well, it is all my imagination. (I am the only male fan in the front area. I only saw a few guys when i was leaving and they were there with their girlfriends)

(I cannot remember when I started being obsessed with him. I remember first seeing him on my elder sister's PC wallpaper. So charismatic and handsome. I was hooked. (Sorry...Shy) Under my sister's influence, I listened to his songs, watched his movies, and became his fan. I would like to thank my sister for buying the tickets 2 months' in advance which cost her 1280. Thank you!

Actually being a male fan, i am often teased by friends. Just like yesterday, I posted some concert pics on QQ and shared some thoughts, one of my friends commented "You being a guy and being obsessed is indeed unbelievable" After that, all sorts of comments came in. I was furious, wanted to tell them it's my business, what is it to you? (the writer is someone with mild temperament) In the end, I still reply as I have mentioned. Haha...

During the concert Hyun Joong cried. I didn't notice it then. I only realised it when I saw the pic online. Yes, being in the industry for 10years now, some fans left. The attendance that day was not that good.

He is going to the army soon. 3years, it is both a long and short time. I will be in the Uni in 3 years' time. I will still be there.

According to local reports, Kim showed strong confidence and power as an artist throughout the whole concert, capturing the hearts of his fans.

[Article] Idol Actors Jung Yonghwa and Kim Hyun Joong

Jeong Yong-hwa

CN Blue's lead singer, Jeong Yong-hwa, is a talented man with a expansive stage presence and an abundance of energy. More often than not, however, this presence and energy doesn't find its way into Jeong's dramas. That makes his characters shaky. His more recent work has more finesse and relatability, but he started out quite rocky.

Jeong's first role was as the second lead in the 2009 drama "You're Beautiful". He had just debuted with his band CN Blue and was a rookie in every sense of the word. It is difficult for rookies to take on lead roles with no experience to fuel their acting. This was true for Jeong. Although he is winning on a concert stage and on reality television, it is quite another thing for him to take on the persona of another and be convincing with it. His Sin-woo in "You're Beautiful" went through the motions, but did not feel alive. Despite this, "You're Beautiful" was wildly successful and gave him a foot in the door for his next big television project.

"Heartstrings" gave Jeong the leading role and reunited the popular coupling between him and Park Shin-hye. Again Jeong's acting was rocky, but the experience he gained from "You're Beautiful"definitely showed, especially in the line delivery and the more relaxed body language. Jeong is an actor who learns a lot from experience.

This was shown in "Marry Him If You Dare" where Jeong was once again a second lead. At times Jeong was very convincing as Park Se-joo. It helped that he worked beside immensely talented and experienced actors who he could learn from and emulate. But there were still moments where his acting was visible. He wasn't Park Se-joo, but Jeong Yong-hwa acting like Park Se-joo.

In his upcoming drama "Three Musketeers", hopefully Jeong will show continued improvement on his acting so that his efforts remain hidden and the audience only sees the results.

Kim Hyun-joong

Idols often get unwarranted hate when they try acting. Even if not bad for the rookie actors that they are, the mere existence of their other profession gets them harsh criticism. Despite this being a sad reality, that criticism is sometimes valid. For people like Jung Yong-hwa and also someone like Kim Hyun-joong, there was really no justification to be made in the past.

Having gotten popular from his role in 'Boys over Flowers', Kim Hyun-joong also enjoyed drama fame very disproportionate to his acting level at the time. There is no beating around the bush. The man could not act. He could barely muster up a few expressions, he lacked charisma, skills and one would have to dig deep to find some potential, if any. Things did not look promising in 'Naughty Kiss' either, where his character's cold and nonchalant facade did not give him much more to put effort into.

Kim himself said that if he could not deliver on his next drama, he would quit acting. The drama which presented that opportunity was "Inspiring Generation". And this is where things took an unexpected turn. While nothing great or consistent, Kim showed great improvement in this series. He managed to be convincing and even engaging as the humble street fighter, Sin Jeong-tae.

This just goes to show that effort and study can go a long way. Kim took acting lessons for his cancelled drama, 'City Conquest' and he gave Jeong-tae his all. This is something those not born with natural acting talent can learn from, be they idol actors or other types of rookie actors. Hard work and challenging oneself can do wonders in making someone as good at their job as possible.

Kim Hyun-joong still has a lot to prove as an actor and needs the right projects and constant effort to do so, but at least he has proven progress is always within reach.
