Park’s agency says, “Since he appeared in the series, he has received a chain of calls from casting producers. It seems that his fluent Japanese and solid acting performance drove them to move. This is likely to be a great chance for him to gain more awareness of him as an actor.”
In the UN Concert that started as the press conference ended, Park was loudly cheered by the audience when he first released the theme song of August’s Love Song he wrote and sung for its sound track.
After the concert, a series of interviews with entertainment news channels will be followed. Back inKorea, he will attend the shooting of aTaiwandrama series to play a lead character, which is expected to give him another chance to expand his acting career.

Young! From the start of Park Jung Min’s eyes expression, the youngster who turned matured returned with his unique sense of cheerfulness, although he cannot hide his innocence.
Park Jung Min did not show off his skills. Although he doesn’t need to act much of ‘from the heart’ scene, but he revealed his belief and uses “Only when you show off your sincerity (in acting), this can be called real acting” as his motto. This is when he was acting in Musical Grease, not because of he himself was being look upon highly by others, but it was due to the coordination of the entire work, and Park Jung Min earned a successful ending (from the musical).

Young! From the start of Park Jung Min’s eyes expression, the youngster who turned matured returned with his unique sense of cheerfulness, although he cannot hide his innocence.
We can still find Park Jung Min’s bright smile in the studio despite his busy overseas schedule. Cheerful and charismatic young man, He looks like an eight colour sparrow (T/N: It means beautiful) from his fashionable appearance to all aspects, everyone said that they have been mesmerized by his colourful appearance.
Jung Min recently completed filming a mobile drama ‘Love Song in August’ in Japan. He started a conversation with Sakai Miki whom acted in ‘Love letter’ from the start of filming when they began to worry about the topic of kissing scene.
Jung Min recently completed filming a mobile drama ‘Love Song in August’ in Japan. He started a conversation with Sakai Miki whom acted in ‘Love letter’ from the start of filming when they began to worry about the topic of kissing scene.
‘Kissing scene started in the first filming. I felt uneasy because I have to play a one-night stand role when I do not have much communicate with the actress yet. But, because the filming started off with a love scene, so all the unnatural feeling disappeared after that and it was much easier to perform.”
In the drama, Hallyu idol will also require to act. He admitted frankly “Although I felt that the personality of the Hallyu idol should fit (the drama), however because of the national (Korean culture) relationship, I would not do that. And while acting the overreach romantic behaviour, it was a little too awkward.”
“I originally had hand sweats, but after consuming some hyperhidrosis medicine, it (hands) wouldn’t be sticky on that day. And because of the sweats, I had to apologize to the actress every time when there is a scene of skin-to-skin contact, there were many embarrassing scene!”
This is the first time he challenge a drama, he expressed his uneasiness and excitement from the beginning till the end. Especially when there is a topic on acting, he will show up his sincerity look suddenly, it feels like he is the real genius actor.
“Genius actor? This is because of a long learning process. There were much confusion during (acting) lesson. One must adjust their emotion when they are acting. Genius cannot deal with these emotions properly.
Previously when I was acting in a musical, I learned how to coordinate the importance of breathing with each other and also the way of concentrating in different venue. One must naturally expressed the acting skills when they are seizing one’s heart and mind. This is the biggest training in acting”
Park Jung Min did not show off his skills. Although he doesn’t need to act much of ‘from the heart’ scene, but he revealed his belief and uses “Only when you show off your sincerity (in acting), this can be called real acting” as his motto. This is when he was acting in Musical Grease, not because of he himself was being look upon highly by others, but it was due to the coordination of the entire work, and Park Jung Min earned a successful ending (from the musical).
“It has already started. But in my opinion, apart from the professional stage, singers require the skills of acting. Thus, I started just like that. Songs are like expressing the joys and sorrows in life, so as a singer, we have to put in feeling, and then we naturally need the skill of acting. The reason why I personally wrote the lyrics (for my songs) is because I hope to sing out my feelings.”
Park Jung Min’s childhood dream is to become an actor, he already understood the fact that he needs to unleash the need of acting skills on the stage when he became an idol, so from then onwards, he officially accept the challenge of acting and declared that he aspired to become an actor daringly. And now, he also reached his ultimate goal of wanting to become an actor.
“Other people wish to become like their role models as a target. I particularly do not have a special role model. I will bring my own self-esteem to attempt; I hope I can be the dream (role model) of anyone.” He boldly hints his owns determination.
During the honey-like time with him alone, and discussed in depth about his investment in acting and as a lyricist. The reason why he can become the attention of the Asia’s new generation leader is because he is improving and updating himself consistently.

Yoon Do Hyun is the mc for the MNET special with KHJ. People laughed when Yoon asked KHJ what he thinks of the other male guest’s long hair and appearance. KHJ saiMacgulliHuri? Byung. (Macgulli is the Korean traditional rice alcohol; I don’t know Huri and Byung is bottle.) Yoon says that KHJ kind of referred to the other male guest (Huh Jin) as “drunk”. Yoon also says that KHJ is really handsome and he feels like touching him. Someone says to do it and Yoon touches KHJ’s face and then says sorry to KHJ. (By the way, I love Yoon Do Hyun’s song called “It must have been love”. It was also sang by KHJ with Huh YoungSeh few years ago and it was great.)
Yoon asks KHJ what does KHJ sing if he goes to Karoke rooms. KHJ says that he often listens instead of sing at the Karoke rooms. Also, if the other people sing at the room, he tends to drink instead. Yoon asks if KHJ really likes to drink. KHJ says that it is not that he likes to drink. At times, he would say I don’t think I can drink today but then, somehow, he does. (laughter) KHJ says he has been saying that for he does not know how many years. (laughter)
At the karoke rooms, he sings sorrowful ballads in the beginning when he is still alert and sober. He likes to sing “Dah Jool Kkuh Ya==I will give you everything”. He sings a sample of that song===I will give you all the love that is left in me….”. KHJ says he has another song that he sings at the 11th hour or 5 minutes before the last round. Yoon says he has to sing that song as if he is drunk and even sway a bit. KHJ says that he usually cannot pronounce the words to that song by that time. (laughter) The song is called “Moo Jo Ggwan=No Matter What” (I cannot understand his pronunciation to write down the words of the song. Keke) People are shouting out his name all over the place. McC Yoon is thanking KHJ for being his guest today. Yoon asks if KHJ finished his singing activity today. KHJ says that he has about two weeks of schedule left in Korea.
KHJ will be singing Lee Juk’s “Dah Heng Yi Dah=It Is Fortunate”. KHJ says that he really likes Lee Juk since young age. The first song that he ever practiced on his guitar was also written by Lee Juk called, “Gih Dah Ri Dah= I am waiting”. He says that he also loves the words to the song that he is about to sing that he often chooses to sing that song in Karoke rooms.
KHJ on Dah Heng Yi Dah: There is something very profound as well as very touching about the words of this song. ~~ I can sit face to face with you and to breathe with you and to eat with you~~fact that he(Lee Juk) was able to use such fleetingly simple words to arrange beautiful lyrics as a whole is just amazing. This is a song that I love to sing at the Karoke rooms. But, now that I am about to sing it in front of you fans, I am a bit nervous. Moreover, I hope that I will be able to present the true and sincere meaning of the lyrics to you minus the playfulness that is present in the Karoke rooms. I will sing it with utmost sincerity. He sings. (Dah Heng Yi Dah has really beautiful words. )
Yoon asks KHJ how he felt about singing the song. KHJ says that because he is a dance singer, the feeling is somewhat unfamiliar but he really likes it. Both Yoon and the lady really like KHJ’s performance. Lady says that KHJ is a real great performer and he has an outstanding musical influence. Cheers from audience. Yoon wonders if KHJ ever think about doing rock band. KHJ says that he will continue as long as he is able to move. When he starts to have bad knees and hips, he will still work hard so that he can continue to meet with audience in a stage like this. Then, Break Down comes on.

Manila, Philippines - From the famous Korean boy band SS501, one of Asia’s pop stars Kim Hyun Joong is back onstage and now with his first solo mini-album Break Down.
Kim Hyun Joong displays a different persona compared to his SS501 days. He has taken the most generic route out of all the SS501 member’s solo activities — typical synthesizer instrumentals, heavy beats and catchy choruses as well as bubblegum pop.
After completing his tour both in the US and South Korea, he hit the studio and recorded this mini-album with album producer Steven Lee.
Break Down boasts of a total of six songs, with one instrumental version of the title track.
The title track is a powerful synthesized song with an urban style which features a stylish rapping of South Korea’s Double K, plus Ken Lewis as the single’s producer. Lewis is the producer of Eminem, Kanye West, Usher and John Legend.
Aside from the Philippines and South Korea, the album is also released in China, Taiwan, Hongkong, Thailand, Singapore and Malaysia.
Apart from being the leader of SS501, he gained popularity for his role as Ji Hoo in the 2009 hit drama series Boys Over Flowers on ABS-CBN. He is also known as Baek Seung Jo or Gelo in Playful Kiss aired by GMA 7.
Break Down is available in all record bars nationwide for P500. Watch out for the Manila High Five meeting of Kim Hyun Joong in August. For details, log on to http://www.polyeastrecords.com/.

A special event was held on July 16th by Warner Music Taiwan, which invited 50 lucky fans to chat with SS501’s Heo Young Saeng through webcam!
As he is about to wrap up his promotion activities for his first solo mini album “Let It Go”, Heo Young Saeng revealed through the chat that he started collecting songs for his next album. He hopes to release the new album in October and present fans with an even better music when he returns. He expressed his gratitude towards Taiwanese fans and promised to visit Taiwan when he has the chance.
When asked whether other members gave him any opinions on his first solo album, he laughed and said, “They did! But none of them were helpful!” Besides the music, he is satisfied with the concept as well, “I love it especially when I put sunglasses on, it feels like I am a mature, cool city man!”
During the chat, his fellow member, Kim Kyu Jong, showed up in the screen all of a sudden! Kim Kyu Jong has just successfully finished musical “Goong” (aka "Princess Hours") in Japan. His appearance and greeting took fans by surprise.
The two are now in the same agency and maintained a close relationship just like the old days. A fan asked whether he has gone to see Kyu Jong’s musical in Japan, he revealed that he couldn’t make it in the end because their leader Kim Hyun Joong asked him to go on a variety show together, even though he had booked the flight ticket and everything. It was a shame he couldn’t go and show his support for Kyu Jong, but he had to follow the leader’s "order"!
