it shouldn't, but that's the way it is. and susan boyle is like.. an isolated phenomenon.
she might have made it but probably not as the kind of artist she is today :)

because ~~my love is pure~~ I want to bring something onto that thread to cheer atmosphere:

Yeah, those are very different situations, but I wasn't comparing the controversies, I was using it to show that Max is not the nice, caring business man that he tries to pretend he is. He is an old man who goes to twitter when he has problems.

He acts like he treats all his artists under AVEX with care but we know that's not the case, proving there may be some light to TVXQ's staff's claims.

I agree :yes People think he's a sweet caring business man, but he isn't. He always says he loves Tohoshinki and promises fans that he will get them together as 5 again, but when he really has to choose, he's just like every other business guy.
People have been calling JYJ unprofessional, because they revealed the troubles they have with avex, but a CEO and CSO tweeting about sensitive stuff while being drunk isn't professional either. Just saying that Matsuura isn't the perfect guy that everyone thinks he is.

But let's stop this discussion... I'm tired of it. Let's focus on cheery things :yes

It looks like the real problem lies in the new contract conditions Avex presented them with. The reasoning in dropping them due to mafia ties seemed like an excuse they used after they couldn't get what they want from JYJ.

Quote:

In an interview on the 17th, the trio’s legal spokesman and lawyer Lim Sang Hyuk revealed that, “Avex requested changes in the contract that the members found difficult to agree to in clauses regarding topics such as income distribution.”

Lawyer Lim Sang Hyuk also added, “At first, it was agreed that all activities performed by the three members would be scheduled and discussed by both sides, but Avex began asking for this to be changed so that Avex would have sole control of scheduling; Avex also requested additional changes that the trio felt were logically unacceptable”

Regarding Avex pinpointing the history of the head of C-JeS as the main reason for halting activities, Lawyer Lim explained that, “Mr. Baek, the head of C-JeS, willingly volunteered for his company to be excluded from the contract if his criminal record would become a problem, but Avex ignored such a notice,” and “Later, they deemed that it would be difficult to progress normally with Mr. Baek’s background.”

The TVXQ trio’s official statement said that, “Several months ago, Avex requested that C-JeS be excluded from the contract for such reasons, and the TVXQ trio agreed to such a request and actively participated in the discussions regarding the renewal of their contract with Avex in order to ensure that they would have smooth activities within Japan.”

Lawyer Lim stated, “When viewing the chain of events, there were many situations that could only be seen as Avex insisting that things go their way and their way only. If the opposition decides to retaliate, we will release additional information from our side.”

He also added that, “The essence of the current controversy is that an agency offered unfair conditions, contrary to what had been included in the previous contract, to their artistes. When these artistes refused to comply, the agency halted all activities, disregarding the members’ wishes,” and “It is disheartening to see that Avex is using the head of C-JeS, who is not affiliated with any gangs whatsoever, as a scapegoat to distract the media and public from the real problem.”

Lawyer Lim criticized that, “It is immoral to back the TVXQ trio, some of Korea’s most representative Hallyu stars, into a corner just because they cannot fulfill a company’s greed,” and strongly stressed that, “We will work hard to resolve this situation and allow the TVXQ trio to resume their activities in Japan.”

somebody asked about Jae Joong of TVXQ

Quote:

What is that???RT @Syivangel28: @ayu_19980408 are you really ayumi hamazaki?? if it true...you know jae joong TVXQ??

wahahahahahaha.. she really doesn't know the international name for Tohoshinki or she's just making fun of the fan?

and this the most SHOCKING one!

Quote:

Always keep the faith=)RT @ErreFan: @ayu_19980408 Ayu! thank you for crossroad and Virgin Road - these lyrics give me faith!!

Woahhhhh AKTF also comes to Ayu lmao!!

^ wow I'm surprised by that last one :O

She might be gaining some Toho fans hearts back by saying AKTF :laugh :luv2
I wonder whether she knew the expression already or learned it through Toho fans :laugh

^ Yess I'm very surprised about that too!! totally.. made my DAY! ahaha..

anyway, hmmm i've been reading the past 2 pages..it seems ppl here put max matsuura at fault.. hmmmm... as for me, personally, I really donno what to say who's wrong and who's not.. and it's so complicated.. all this long, we only know that it's all coming from the media..and I don't even know whom i have to believe right now.. the boys or avex or SME..

i wanna say what i know, but i think it's better to leave it at that..

i think we should just stop to blame on max matsuura... not that i defend him.. but that doesn't really necessary.. :)

^ I've never said it's Matsuura and avex's fault. To be honest, I believe fault always lies on the both sides.

ayu saying always keep the faith?:heart
god, this woman is so awesome

[TRANS] 100918 Inoue Kozo’s Twitter Update

The Korean management company for the 3 members of Tohoshinki announced unbelievable comments. I believe they are even faking the members’ comments. They are just inflaming the Japanese fans. Please do not play around with the members anymore!September 17th 8:22pm

I am not trying to gain the fans’ favors. I am just twitting my feelings and the results of my researches. I do not need to gain favors in the first place. RT @(fan) please do not try to gain the fans’ favors. Do you hold any special feelings to Tohoshinki? RT @inouekozodesu ..
September 17th 9:21pm

What I want to say is that please do not be swayed by the comments which we do not know whether the members really said or not. The most troubled with the current situation should be the 3 members’ Korean management company. If this company exists, it is impossible for the 5 members to resume their activities. Let’s stop the sterile discussions
Approx 24 hours ago

@(fan) I fully understand what you want to say. But I am confident that those comments were not made by the 3 members themselves. Please understand why I cannot unveil the reason here.

Can every CEO/CSO/journalist/manager shut the **** up? I don't need their sick theories and "I know something you don't know" games.

I was watching Thanksgiving Live Backstage movie and saw Chunnie's chest tattoo and remembered that Jaejoong has the same tattoo (http://moonlightunes.wordpress.com/2...s-new-tattoos/). Maybe Jaejoong showed of his tattoo, since Ayu seems to like them :laugh Maybe that's how she knows about "Always keep the faith" :laugh I want blossom making of so bad :weep

@LizBrazil, another tattoo 'Always Keep the Faith'?
how cool would that be if Jae gets 10th anniversary tattoo same as Ayu...:P

^
LOL, he has so many tattoos already :laugh At his upper back, lower back and chest :laugh

Ayu saying "Always keep the faith" gives me hope. :heart

and ugh reading more of those "upper" people twitting/writing about stuff makes me wanna puke.. gonna avoid the drama for now..

We have already HQ screencaps from blossom PV o.O
