[Trans] Hyung Jun on Trendy Magazine No. 17
Repost with full credits Scanned by: Annieyang Trans: Only Jun (kimhyungjun.net) 2nd half of Year 2010, SS501 5 members have embarked on their own activities, among them, Magnae Hyung Jun, after joining a new management company have been having new updates; not only is he going to challenge musical performance for the first time, he is also going to tour Asia to meet all the pea princesses, and of course Taiwan is one of the must go places! Before visiting Taiwan, Hyung Jun had accepted a TRENDY exclusive interview in Seoul; When he was in Taiwan, of course TRENDY could not miss the chance to follow him closely… LovingHyung Jun ForeverUnlimited Love, Cute Hyung JunPart 1 Hyung Jun in Seoul Afternoon Tea AppointmentHyung Jun who had an appointment with TRENDY at his new management company, secretly popped his head out of the office to check when TRENDY and staff members arrived. When he realised we are the people he knows, he seemed to heave a sigh of relief and broke into a smile, happily welcoming TRENDY and the staff members. Perhaps it is due to this sense of familiarity, although other group members are not there with him, Hyung Jun did not appear to be that nervous or not at ease, he kept joking and laughing, behaving exactly like SS501’s playful Magnae Hyung Jun whom everyone is familiar with, he didn’t change a single bit.T: Taiwanese pea princesses are all missing Hyung Jun whom they have not met for quite some time, and are looking forward to the fan meeting. What is keeping Hyung Jun busy lately?Thank you each and every pea princess who is waiting patiently. I am currently working hard to prepare for the Taiwan fan meeting. Furthermore, I’ll be performing in the musical <<Café In>>, so I have been spending everyday busily yet fruitfully. T: Hyung Jun would be challenging musical <<Café In>>, so did you start to undergo some special training? Is it tough? In this musical, what role would you be challenging? To perform in musical, besides the basic singing and dancing, there is also acting. These three areas have to be balanced perfectly in order to have a good performance. So currently focusing on the most important singing and acting portions, practising the main parts. Although it may be very tough, but I have always been wanting to perform in a musical, and also feel that musical would allow me to develop my abilities further. So even though it is tiring, I’m enjoying it (laugh). This musical practically only has the male and female leads and these two persons would practically be acting out the whole show. I am acting as the Sommelier, but within the story plot the Sommelier have 2 split personalities. Besides working professionally as a Sommelier, I also have to act out a very playful and humorous side of this character. Besides, I’m not very familiar with red wine personally, so in order to portray this role well, I’m learning things in details, starting from how to hold a glass wine, how to pour wine…etc. I’m even practising hard in my daily life. (While saying he even demonstrated how to pour red wine, and Hyung Jun even playfully did a wink) T: Starting solo activities with the status [Kim Hyung Jun], how do you feel? Honestly, definitely feels lonely. Besides being lonely, now there is nobody beside me to rely on, so my responsibilities have become even heavier. Would have to adapt to all these, I also hope that I can accumulate more experiences, I am treating this current situation as a form of challenge for myself, and this is actually a good opportunity for me to grow. T: Already a singer, and also tried being a DJ, act in musical among others. So what do you wish to challenge next?I think that my singer status is the most important, but I also wish to try act in drama and other areas, so besides being a singer I am currently trying to challenge myself in many areas. Although it is important to focus in one area and then develop further in that area, but I personally want to be acknowledged in many different area, so besides DJ, MC, singer, musical, I also want to challenge acting, after picking up acting skills via the musical, if a good opportunity presents itself, wish to be able to act in a drama or movie. T: You just mentioned about wanting to act in a drama or movie, so do you have a senior actor in mind whom you wish to work with the most?(Thinking for a while with head tilted) Won Bin hyung. Wish to try acting in an action-packed show as two big fierce and violent boys. Regardless of whether it is a drama or movie, but now I am still not quite mature, I need to be more prepared. But since we are just discussing about what I wish to do, so I can say it right? (Hyung Jun was so cute asking with his big eyes, seeing that TRENDY has nodded, then he continued on.) There are also Mr. Song Seung Heon, Mr. Jang Dong Gun……many others, can I say that many? Who else? The person whom I like, Zhang ZiYi, I like her very much. (Listing all his idols out in one breath, Hyung Jun showed a very satisfied expression while nodding his head, and stating very seriously that he would work hard.) T: Hyung Jun is the Magnae among SS501 members, but is also the elder brother of U-KISS Ki Bum, now he is carrying out solo activities as [Kim Hyung Jun], so how are these 3 statuses different for you?To me all these 3 have very special meaning, I am all these 3, each of them are equally important, so it is impossible to rid of any one of these statuses. Magnae, Kim Hyung Jun himself, and Ki Bum’s brothers, all have relationship bonds, all 3 are very important; I am working hard to play these 3 roles until the very best. T: Other SS501 members have already begun their own activities, do Hyung Jun and other members still meet up or keep in contact?Of course, we frequently keep in contact via the phone, and would also leave messages for each other on Twitter. No one is running away to somewhere else ah~~haha, so we would still meet up often to have meals or to drink, and would chat a lot of different things, so it is nothing different from the past, just that now is a period for us to focus more on solo activities. Actually feeling is still the same, just like how SS501 was in the past. T: U-KISS in which younger brother Ki Bum belongs to also enjoy high popularity, so did Ki Bum ever consult Hyung Jun on matters related to work? If there is an opportunity for Hyung Jun to work with brother Ki Bum, which area would you choose to do?Actually it was reallya surprise for me when Ki Bum chose to become a singer, I always thought that him with good results(continued from p33 of the magazine) and who knows how to cook well would choose some other jobs. I do not know if it is because he saw how handsome I look on stage, that is why also wanted to be a singer. (After saying this, Hyung Jun started laughing loudly himself.) Ki Bum is more independent, so he did not discuss with family members about him wanting to become a singer, he suddenly just came to me one day with his album, telling me that he is going to debut as a singer with an album. Although they went through a very tough time, but U-KISS recently have been doing well, so I wish that they become better and better. Talking about working together, Ki Bum and I have always wanted to work together musically, it would be quite interesting for both of us to compose music and perform together! We also have another idea; we wish to help other youths who love music just like us. It would also be quite good to use our abilities to help youths who love music, to come up with some music-related work! Hyung Jun’s Dog CHOCOTRENDY told Hyung Jun, his cute dog [CHOCO]‘s popularity as high as her owner. Hyung Jun replied with amazement, “Oh my god, also very popular in Taiwan?” When TRENDY took out the present that was specially prepared for [Choco], Hyung Jun who was pleasantly pleased, said that [Choco] is such a lucky fellow, and even told TRENDY about [Choco]’s secret, said that [Choco] used to be very small, but now has already grown to become a 8kg dog, while talking, he even pretended to be carrying [Choco] and showed a very tired and sweaty look. TRENDY reminded Hyung Jun to remember to pass the present to [Choco] but unexpectedly Hyung Jun actually pouted and said jealously, “If I’m hungry later, I’ll eat them”. Of course he was only joking; Hyung Jun playfully acted as [Choco], and produced barking sounds to express his thanks on behalf of [Choco].Interview Backstage StorySpecially flew to Seoul to meet Hyung Jun, TRENDY specially prepared many Taiwan famous local products to placate Hyung Jun’s longing for Taiwan delicacies. After obtaining the pineapple tart, Hyung Jun happily exclaimed, “I like this the most”, and immediately opened one pack to have a big bite. That satisfied expression of his seems to quite resemble that of his dog [Choco].Hyung Jun who was in a very good mood, even enquired the staff about the recent updates about Taiwan while taking photos, and he also kept sharing the various interesting things that had happened during the previous few times when he visited Taiwan together with other members of SS501. Everyone was influenced by Hyung Jun’s good mood, and smiles keep appearing on their faces. Also when the photograph praised him with, “Good!”, Hyung Jun, without any hesitation, immediately showed a child-like eye expression and look and replied, “Of Course!”, making the stern manager who was standing at one side, couldn’t help but break into a smile. Hyung Jun’s [Crowd Pleaser] personality has not even changed a bit. T: Hyung Jun uses Twitter frequently to communicate with fans and friends, so are there any interesting things that happened while using Twitter?(Upon hearing the question, Hyung Jun started laughing loudly) There are really many people who use Twitter in Korea! Just recently I accidentally found some friends whom I have lost contact for a long time on Twitter. I also did something interesting on Twitter. Oh~ I should say, I played a prank with the dog [Choco] that I’m rearing. I acted as [Choco] and make it as though she is playing Twitter and unexpectedly it led to a very hot response from everyone, therefore I thought it was quite interesting. (While saying this, Hyung Jun tried to bark like a dog, pretending to be [Choco] playing Twitter, not only did he cause everyone to laugh, he himself was lying on the sofa laughing.) T: Taiwan pea princesses would listen to Hyung Jun’s radio programme via the internet, Hyung Jun allows everyone to see a different side of him when he sings happily on the show. Lastly, we would like to invite [Hyung Jun DJ] to say something to Taiwan pea princesses as well as to dedicate a song to everyone that is suitable to be played during autumn!Taiwan pea princesses, friends who are supporting me, although this time would not come as 5 people, but alone to hold fan meeting, I promise that it would be very interesting, so please look forward to it. I would also not let everyone down and would prepare a lot. I can still remember many Taiwanese fans, so do not have a change of heart, continue to support me, hopefully you can be with me for the rest of your life. Lastly, would like to dedicate the song <Love Ya> by SS501, that is suitable to be played on autumn’s sunny days. Hope that everyone can love and support all 5 members who will be having individual activities. Would be meeting everyone soon. Thank you. [Green box] Mr Good Man’s Surprise VisitFor TRENDY’s appointment with Hyung Jun this time, came a mystery guest that gave Hyung Jun a big surprise.When Mr Good Man Ken Wu appeared with the red bean mochi at the TRENDY interview scene, Hyung Jun was shocked with his mouth wide open. To the Mr Good Man who is already an [Old Friend], he happily exclaimed, “My Brother~”. When these two [Old Friends] meet up, they could not stop talking and even [hook pinky finger, stamp, photocopy, keep] as actions of promise. Actually this is because Hyung Jun kept saying that he missed Xiao Long Bao, (approximately said about a few hundred times), so Mr Good Man promised to bring him to eat Xiao Long Bao when he visits Taiwan, and would be going to shop at 101 and Shilin Night Market. Hyung Jun and Mr Good Man became more excited as they chatted and even said that when Hyung Jun visits Taiwan, might as well hold his interviews at 101. Hyung Jun even increased the stake of their promise, wanted Mr Good Man who is also a DJ to play his new song two hundred times when he releases his new album. Mr Good Man of course agreed immediately! For more images of the surprise visit made by Mr Good Man for Hyung Jun, remember to tune in to <<Love JK>> every Monday to Friday 7pm! Part 2Hyung Jun dressed up in a handsome autumn suit and appeared at the press interview. Although carrying charming smiles on his face, but from the way he crossed his fingers from time to time, one can sense that Hyung Jun was still a little nervous. In response to the reporters’ questions, Hyung Jun listened carefully and answered detailedly |
