Is there a reason why someone would go to a beach at night and cry?
Well, just imagine how you would react if you heard you have only 3 months left. Would you leave the doctor's office smiling from head to toe and going on like nothing happened? :innocent Don't forget that Japanese people, especially men, have to act strong all the time and going to a beach at night to let all your emotions out you couldn't do during the day, doesn't seem that illogical to me.
Last summer someone I really love to death had to deal with the news that there would be a chance that he wouldn't survive his surgery and believe me, that news makes your world fall down.

^that's so true
and maybe because i've seen a lot of asian dramas, but that scene didn't look weird to me! tbh, i felt depressed after seeing it :(

My bedroom would've been the first option. :P I guess it supposedly clears his mind. Oh well, the Japanese love their drama so I'm not gonna scrutinise every little detail, so whatever. XD There's a reason I only watch their crime dramas, and usually avoid the sappy. :laugh

I can barely hear the song in that preview so I'm not sure where the climax is. :/

noooo it's gooone :(

You know there is a difference between going to the beach and crying while trying to deal with problems and throwing yourself all over the place to make it seem more dramatic :rolleyes People are different so there might be some who actually do that, though I've never seen anyone do that outside the world of Japanese dramas/movies. I don't think anyone thought it was strange he was there at night. I just find it to be a little bit over the top, which was quite expected considering this was made in Asia.

I think he goes to the beach because he used to go there with her girlfriend.

noooooooo, it's no longer availabel!!!!!!

THANK YOU! YOU'RE A LIFE SAVER!!!

EDIT:
ooo it looks gooood. so what if he goes to the beach to cry. maybe its the place that draws him when he's sad... like me. if i lived near one, i'd go there to cry my eyeballs out. i guess it depends on the person. we're free to cry where we want... *shrugs* anywho, OOOO I'M SO EXCITED! can't wait can't wait!

I agree, I feel like Ayu does things Japanese audience wants or that other people would like, she is like "let's do this and that cause it's popular", it goes both to this PV (using famous boy to make non-ayu fans buy the single), and to her recent style. I just hope her next change of image will suit me more :)

Sigh...
I must confess...
Please stop doing that same old thing!!!!!!!!
A talented painter only has 3-month life left,about to leave her lovely girlfriend alone...
Is it boring enough!?
SAME OLD KOREAN DRAMA STORYLINE!

^
maybe that's what ppl like right now~
and the korean wave? so ppl make the storyline that seem cliche and tipical..
BUT, we actually still can't say anything about what actually happens on the beach..
who knows it might surprise us with something else~

I uploaded the preview on my youtube channel :)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rhsiz...layer_embedded

I didn't see anything abnormal about the preview. Cultures are different, what we may find stupid the Japanese may find heartbreaking. Recently, my friend's boss was told she had 2 weeks to live and died two days later. We weren't even sure if her daughter, who lives in another state, got home into to see her mother before she died. So there's no telling how people would react to such news. Does crying in the ocean seem a little over dramatic? Maybe. But there's no telling what different people do when faced with certain death. I'm not getting on the people criticizing that scene, just expressing my views on it. :)

Yeah same here. I think Avex/Ayu just plays safe here with the last singles before she hits 50. Give the japanese what they want for the moment. We will see if she gets less cliché after this.

Oh, I haven't seen you posted the link. THANKS!!!!!

ayu loves to try different things with her album tracks. i don't think she tries much new with her singles nowadays.

^Yeah that's true. Specially now when she reaches for a record. But she have very often been tricky with her PV's. After the GUILTY PV's I thought that era was over. But R'n'RC proved me wrong. I hope something creative like that makes another comback in the future. :D

^ I'm sure we're gonna see different side of Ayu again...
like now it's liked ayu going back to the old track..like the nostalgic type of songs..
n let her be :)
i'm sure she'll do new stuff in the near future again :)

with a storyline PV..it's already made a difference from any of her previous PVs..
it's simple, dorama-ish, and it's something that Ayu has never done before, i think~
So i'll just going to enjoy it :)

No, not really. Endless sorrow, Days and BALLAD would be some of the PVs with the most obvious story lines of which only Endless sorrow is actually worth something in my opinion. I am aware that she might be trying to please her Japanese fans, but that doesn't change the fact that it's a very cliche and over-dramatic story.

^ yea it's true that this PV is very cliche and dramatic (not over i think lol)
it's very DORAMA-ish..and it's something that ayu has never done before..
and I don't think Endless sorrow, Days and BALLAD are dorama-ish~
those PVs do have storylines, but what i mean is that, they didn't use real places as the background scenes.. i mean the whole set for those 3 PVs were BUILT/CREATED that they made the storylines more like fantasy?
and blossom PV is more REAL than those 3...i just love the simplicity of it..
I think what we could worth something from blossom PV is that how Ayu put the song's lyric/meaning through someone elses' acting..

Overall, I'm just gonna sit back and wait for the full version and enjoy it.. even if it's cliche or typical.. it's still something RAW that ayu never really did before..

^ oh, yeah that's right, it's first time it has a dorama feel to it. And well I am always for loads of random weirdness the STEP you, Microphone, alterna etc. were than something "new", but totally predictable :)

^ yea maybe you like ayu's PVs that have such weird vibe on it or mysterious feeling ..therefore you found the dorama-ish PV not really that interesting..because it's cliche and predictable haha XD

I'm usually don't spazz over Jaejoong, but... OMFG that night scene in the sea, he looked so hot. :Q_____ please say it's when bridge instrumental starts! MV looks veery promising by far. Soooo excited to watch the whole thing.

I'm starting to believe that drama-like PVs featuring TVXQ member have to contain "waaaai my life" water scene + meeting with doctor who diagnoses disease. :innocent

The video is deleted... I wasn't able to see it... what a pity.

^^
LOL :laugh

You can download it here: http://kokayz.livejournal.com/562250.html

EDIT:
Better quality video:


I think the download link was also replaced by this video :yes

thx for the link^^
it's cute, but what is with him?? is he ill???

^
The doctor says he has only 3 months left to live.

Thanks for sharing Liz! definitely more comfortable to watch, lol.

poor guy o.o
Q_Q but why??

Is anywhere the english type of the lyrics?

Thanks Liz for the more HQ version. It does seem like the beach is the place he goes with his girl, so it would make sense why he would cry there, to me anyhow.

Here is the translation of blossom: http://www.ahsforum.com/forum/showth...hlight=blossom

Natalia & Jen, you're welcome :) Found it on allkpop :laugh

is that really a dog she's holding? it looks like a baby lion or something.

He isn't really dieing, don't worry. It's just Ayu being uber-commercial and predictable.

hey guys! its just like the American wave! instead of a disease and a love story, we Americans [always] get the typical sex, betrayal, backstabbing, who's hotter, who's a killer and who's gonna be killed typical story here. same old guilty pleasure crap. SOOO i rather prefer the Asian drama kind of sappiness *shrugs*.

i usually dont like really dramatic story pvs like this. a lot of popular artists do that and i can never watch them lol. but if theyre executed well they can always make for a good watch. i cant wait for the full. it seems interesting ^___^

I need to buy this single.

i've checked again..it's not ayu's dogs..
hahaha....
it'll be great if cocoa the princess acted on as the dog..haha XD

oh! dude from Tohoshinki and the nurse chick from Code Blue! ^^
looks super omoshiroii! ^^
but I hope it will show Ayu at some point... like the merciful Goddess of Love watching over them lol

ah! how could i forget where i ever seen the girl before..
code blue actress! woahh!
so looking forward to this PV!

I love every post you've made on this thread, you speak the truth <3

Why are we even complaining about crying on the beach? Lol, duh, Ayu thought of everything :innocent

I'm still liking it a lot & I can't wait to watch the whole PV. Her storyline/dorama-alike PVs have always been my favorites (Endless sorrow, Days, BALLAD, Lady Dynamite - does it count?)~

Little does he know that the only cure is LOVE!

i dont see ayu in this PV. so ayu is missing from this PV? :(

Yep. No Ayumi in this PV. :(

I could also complain about the cliché PV love story and dramatic overacting. :yes

^
if you can't stand such cliche PV love story then yeah, avoid the thread and don't watch blossom PV when it's out.. and just wait patiently for crossroad which it may satisfy you much~
and because cliche PV love story always could be found in any Japanese PVs.. not just Ayu~ and i guess it's nothing wrong with such PV once in a time made for ayu's song.. IT IS WHAT AYU CHOSE TOO~

but can you please give at least a chance to watch before judge anything?
we only could watch the short preview...we don't exactly know what's going on yet..

^oh I know. i'm just playing the devil's advocate.

I'm sure the PV will be fine, but I do feel sad that ayumi won't be in it. I'm a fan of her, not the guy who is going to be in it.

Really what I hoped for was something that would tie in with Moon's PV.

^
yes you have the right to be upset bout her not in the PV..
but for how long are u gonna be upset?
even if the guy on the PV is not my interest , I will also watch it..because it's also an Ayu's PV.. and I want to know how is it going to be with the PV without Ayu on it...how Ayu going to put her lyric into visual view.. she's not like doing this kind of PV for many times before.. it's just once in a while..

so just relax...
I also wish it could be something related to MOON.. but i am now, just going to wait and see how it's going to turn out..

give yourself at least a chance... that's all that I could say~

^oh I'm not really upset by it. I'm mainly just discussing it here while I wait for more info or something. This is what boredom does to me.

^ ok..
then let us wait til the full version is out first...

I wonder if it will be on TV or anything or if it's just for her single only, like My Name's Women.

There you go again. This is a very open forum, people are free to talk about what they like and dislike. alternarist wasn't even complaining, but simply stating he isn't seeing Ayu in the PV which he might've not previously known. No need to repeat that it's what Ayu chose, she also chose her covers and songs but people still complain about them and those are more important than the PV featuring JJ. And no one is even judging it, just stating the obvious :rolleyes

awww Jaejoong was so cute in the beginning<3
I wonder how the girl reacts when he dies x__x

Probably something like this:

and THERE YOU GO AGAIN...
I don't specifically pointing who ~
I'm just asking ppl to MOVE ON..who is upset about this one PV..
it's not end of the world if this PV doesn't include Ayu.. it's not even the end of Ayu's career just because of one PV without her..
and I didn't even talk about JJ..and THERE YOU'RE THE ONE WHO BRINGS JJ UP...
so that's clearly.. what's wrong with you?
and keep on attacking my post..gosh!
this is OPEN forum u said? then am i free to post to?
and I'm not rude here.. u're the one attacking me..

Moreover, I was talking to ohsixthirty and i just find it his/her replying are just fine and we both meet an understanding..so why you mind to butt in anyway?

seriously..if u always get irritated/annoyed from what i would post in this forum... just please ignore my post? BY THAT, we can avoid fighting!

I'm just simply asking POLITELY to consider about this PV rather than go upset because Ayu is not on it...and if don't like it, then just be it..
and what harm could be done?

LOL can she do a worse fake-crying than Ayu? We shall see!

Btw, I LOVE cliche sappy love stories! I'd rather watch more PVs like blossom/BALLAD/Days than something like... Sunrise/Sunset, :laugh

oh well~~ I understand the fans who're upset about Ayu not being in the PV, but in a way I'm glad she's not in it. Why? Because if she were, we're gonna get more complains/whining about her acting with Jaejoong, we might see bashing of both of them from both sides of the fandom, so yeah... thank God.

Blossom PV is really making the Ayu fans crazy. ;)

Maybe at the very end when what's-his-face is dying, Ayu will pop out and be like O HAI, JUST K1DDING, I reli in this PV afterall!!! :laugh

^ oh i really wish that she would make a surprise by the end of the PV..
it'll be the best ever lolol~

yea waterballoon, both fans are gonna go crazeeeee..
but from what i could see, the other side's fans are just so fine..they even demand to see Ayu with him on the PV.. so yea...
but i think Ayu's fans are going to be sooooooooooo sad about it if it's really true to have Ayu as the girl... haha...
but never mind.. everyone gets jealous..

As usual you are always putting words in other people's mouth. No one said it's THE END OF THE WORLD, you make it sound like it is when other people comment something. I also did not say you are not allowed to say what you want, but I am sure free to comment whatever you say if I agree/disagree. No one seems upset about anything, you're blowing things out of proportion and that is what I find somewhat annoying. And now I'll bold some parts of this as you tend to read things that aren't there. You don't need to specifically point out anything, people aren't stupid :rolleyes Some things are very obvious. And the only reason why I mentioned JJ, is because if he wasn't in the PV you wouldn't act like a police officer whenever people say something about it :lech I dunno about you, but it takes two people to have a fight and I still don't think a fight is necessary as long as we keep it civil and I am pretty sure none of my comments were offensive.

Why would people care and not jump to conclusions like they usually do about everything Ayu does? Why make an exception this time? Because you say they should? Please take the time to answer this ^^

^well you know our ayu likes tricks!

I'm sure I will watch this once...then probably never again. lol

The only reason I liked fated's PV was not because of the cliche plot line...but because Ayu looked nice in the PV :laugh

So I really hope that I at least like blossom's PV even without Ayu's presence...All of the Asian dramas are just getting to my head...I don't need anyone else dying of a terminal disease, but their love will live on kind of thing xD :laugh

what if Jaejoong managed to seduce you? :P Then you're gonna watch it over & over again :laugh

and omg the quarreling... :no

^ This is AHS....People usually judge the full single even with the smallest preview~

Just move on and ignore people's posts~ You reply and then they'll want to reply too and it's just an endless cycle >_<

@AyUmIXx - I asked a very simple question in the end of my previous post, please answer to it as I am really curios about what you'll say. I am pretty much done here as I can't be bothered to keep going on and on about the same thing. Oh and the moment you started saying that I have problems you showed you lack any arguments whatsoever and that there is no point in discussing things with you. I wasn't attacking anyone though. Oh and please stop reading things that ARE NOT THERE.


Yup and after a while you learn to live with it even though it's dumb ^^

Agreed.

When are people going to stop being butthurt over little things? :headache Just accept that our opinions are all very different, and unless it's prohibited forum behavior, don't ask people to "avoid this thread" or whatever. Lay down those guns.

I so desperately want something totally unexpected to happen in this PV. When he's at that beach crying...Space monsters attack! (j/k. But I do want something to make us all go O______O )

My dream ending would be Ayu appearing at the end, holding a portrait that Jaejoong drew, and staring out into the sky...

Oh wait I think I've said this before :laugh

The video was removed. D;
NOW HOW WILL I SEE THE PREVIEW?!?!

^ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vnRWhnWl6g4

^ thanks for sharing..
is that longer version of the previuos video that we've seen?

Thankies for sharing a new link, crea_spain!

Wooaa JJ is hot.... hot enough to make my brains black out and go for any cliché plot. and i mean it seriously. :laugh

:roflmao

I'm really looking foward to the PV. :D
(JJ is love)

oh wowowowow so hot

My dream ending would be that Ayu appears at his funeral :innocent

^ actually Ayu is JJ's older sister....
and she comes comforting the left girlfriend~

^
Oh, but didn't she tweet that she sees him as a little brother in real life (instead of 'love interest' suggested by Japanese fans)? :laugh It would be cool just to see her appear for a few seconds :yes

im looooving the preview :luv2 still kinda sad that ayu isnt gonna be in it but oh well

and why are you guys thinking that jae will die? why not the girl? it would make more sense :P

not sure if someone already replied to you but ayu asked him to act in her pv :yes she's a dbsk fan remember?

Jj was supposed to act as an artist who found out he had only 3 months left to live :yes

^oooooh mkay i didnt know that XD

seems like i will only watch this pv once,,,
then no more...
lol...

idk why i hate the girl in that pv! please replace her with models from scawaii magazine lol

^ hehe..
if the girl is from scawaii models..
it'll become too surreal.. haha XD

Yes let's replace an actress with a model! :laugh :P

Very dramatic but, I like dramatic things. They can be epic...or they can be really bad/cheesy

blossom (Short Ver.)
http://www.spaceshowertv.com/search/...u=0082311&ch=0

The PV is alright so far.
