JYJ <Junsu | Jaejoong | Yoochun> - 1st THREAD

So, i dunno why this hasn't happened yet on here, but i think they deserve a thread too, despite the fact that as a group they aren't active for now.
In general i think they need a thread so we could at least blab about their solo stuff. I hope none's gonna kill me for creating this
I mean in the end the thread will just go to the obscurity if none's interested At least we'll have one.

JYJ (formerly known as Junsu/Yuchun/Jejung in Japan) is a South Korean pop group formed in 2010 by Jaejoong, Yoochun, and Junsu, the three former members of TVXQ.
Their group name is taken from the first letters of each member's names. The trio are managed by C-JeS Entertainment.
In April 2010, they released their debut record, the Japanese EP The..., which topped the Japanese Oricon Albums Chart. Their subsequent releases, including their global debut album,
The Beginning (2010) and their second studio album and first Korean full-length album, In Heaven (2011), all debuted at number one on the Korean Gaon Album Chart.
JYJ has caught the attention of various newspapers and media networks around the world,
and is the first K-pop group to perform in Chile and Peru.

WOW! i didn't know JYJ didn't have a thread! YAY for their first thread, they deserve it! I can't wait until Jaejoong gets out of the military. I need more music from his solo in my life!

Omg thanks for creating the thread! I love JYJ And yeah, I'm also surprised that they don't have a thread, but then quite a few popular kpop bands don't have threads on here neither.

I love JYJ, I still love TVXQ too, but I have always had a bias for Jaejoong so I can't help but love his voice.

I actually was a little surprised myself. Looked for one a few times and everytime nothing would come up. had an idea to make one for a while now. Finally did! i have to say though, i spent a stupid amount of time on it lol

Oh yeah, how long has it been since Jae is out of the game, though? i lost the track of time....
And how long it's been for Yoochun?

I love Jaejoong to death, but i also have a soft spot for Junsu. even though i only like a song or two from his stuff, his vocals are something. When i was making the tread i was actually a little surprisd at how little Yoochun is doing in terms of musical solo activities. That guy has a great voice too! I wonder why aren't they letting him use it more!

BTW, i find it kind of ridiculous how Jaejoong is out and is still all over the military festivals and news websites because of them. It kind of doesn't even feel like he's not in the game. Not to mention the album.

Jaejoong went in last March, He gets out in December of this year. So almost like a year and two months. I hate this! I was dreading this moment for such a long time, especially since he kept postponing it until he couldn't anymore. My baby just needs to come back! At least we are getting pictures of him, most of the time it's very quiet when they are in the military. AND THANK FUCKING GOD FOR NO.X at least I can hear his beautiful voice lol

if i remember correctly the hologram concert sold out in less than 10 minutes in japan. it's amazing how well he does (all of them really) for the fact that they don't get promotion.

That performance was out of this world! I don't think I would ever watch any from the Hologram tour though, mostly because he lipsyncs and he's just too good live to appreciate it properly.

I did notice this and I have no problems! I think your such an awesome person, even though we haven't had a lot of actual conversation. Your graphics skill is so amazing!

neither do i, i mean anyone is free to join in, haha!
aww, same here! and i really appreaciate with all the work you put into uploading stuff!

here is it, if you hadn't manage to watch it yet:


going to leave this here too, since it's freshly out. Not my cup of tea though.

I've listened to the album and honestly 99% of it is ballads, and only one song that i actually enjoyed.

Omg I didn't realise that Yoochun enlisted as well! For some reason I thought Junsu was supposed to enlist after Jae And just a couple of weeks ago I was wondering why I haven't heard anything about him in a while haha

I miss Jaejoong as well. He's my ultimate bias in kpop...

I don't like TVXQ's recent music though.

Yoochun enlisted I think a couple of months after Jaejoong, Junsu has yet to enlist (but he's the youngest so we should expect that soon), Yoochun himself has had a rather quiet enlistment period. I like TVXQ just as the duo, although I don't like their music as much as Jaejoong or JYJ. As for Xia's new album, I haven't listened to it yet, I don't really care much for his solo stuff. I usually like maybe on or two songs off an album and that's it.

yes apparently Yoochun alo enlisted, but since i don't really follow him as a solo i have no idea when. So Junsu is the only one left.

TVXQ...i dunno i did enjoy a couple of songs but they never were my cup of tea, even when they were all 5.

Junsu's vocals are what usually gets me. But yeah his stuff is way too dancey or hip-hop'y for me to actually like it.

I like all types of music, but I can't listen to anything really ballad heavy. And that has been a problem with JYJ / Solo / TVXQ5, they have always been very ballad heavy. Jaejoong's last studio album only had like 2 or 3 ballads and I actually enjoyed them

^yeah they do have quite a bit of ballads in their own group releases. But i actually liked quite a few songs from Just Us album: Back Seat (steamy one lol), So so, Dear J (of course), CREATION, Letting Go. Wake Me Tonight is also quite nice.
From Junsu i only like Tarantallegra, Fever, Uncommited, Flower, License to love you, and Don't leave, Breath.
Junsu especially is very ballady. BUt i am legit impressed with some of his arrangement and composing skills. I know he did Tarantallegra and Sunset except for lyrics. Breath is also his own composing and arrangement, he did the lyrics too. And i know he composed Flower as well. I mean there's no denying the guy has quite a bit of talent here.

Jae's ballads usually get me, i only disslike really plain ones, with an exception of Run Away, i think that song is my favourite on the album. It just bothers me that i usually am not particulary fond of his own composed songs. I dunno why but they almost never click with me. I only really like a few.
