[OPINION] Tell us what you think

Ever since the dispute between SM Entertainment and the 3 members of TVXQ began,
people have been stating their different point of views regarding this situation.

Here on Sweetfig, We want to know what you think about:
1. The sudden change of face of SM Entertainment (the contract issues)
2. The stand of JaeChunSu and HoMin

Is it that hard not to keep the faith anymore? We should think positive no matter what the outcome will be.

Always keep the Faith!

[Vid+Trans] Toki Wo Tomete Offshot

時を止めて




& some quick translations

[Jaejoong, who unexpected laughed out loud]

- cut     JJ: I'm so sorry

JJ: Humans really are amazing. I'm standing here but I can see what's going on over there.

- we're going to start now   JS: Okay

- is everythig OK?  JS: Hai~

- still remember the lyrics? (^^)   JS: まあまあ (if my memory still works, it means "so-so" ? :D)

[Having been told to look at the main girl character a soft, gentle look....]


[Using his hand gestures to reveal one of the staff member's daily habits]


[While filming, a self-high (is that how you call it?) Yunho]

JJ: Suddenly my brain becomes a blank space

- you can't forget it ~

JJ: And I accidently forget the lyrics (we all know your memory is lacking :D)

- you can look at the lyrics

[Staff members.... worried that he'll forget the lyrics...]

*awkward Changmin hand movements* ^^

[Very caring about the ring size?]

JJ: Can't I take this with me?

[Everyone's shots only took one try today; a very happy Junsu]  (the captions don't always.. flow)

YH: This is an astronomical telescope (天文望遠鏡)

YH: I've been the planetarium once during elementary school

[Acting tips for the scene where Changmin protects the main character.....]

- haha, she's laughing (so am I XD)

CM: I couldn't capture the feeling of what I'm supposed to do in this place

[Yoochun mouths the Japanese words he's learned today over and over again!]

- do you know how this place will become later?

YC: Even though I've never been here, right here... it seems .... eh, is it all white?

- wait until the dims later on, it'll be different

YC: Oh; I want to see

[While taking a picture for xxxxxx (tohomobile?), Junsu suddenly burst out laughing]

- what are you laughing at

JS: I feel very happy       JS: This is my favourite, PLUTO

didn't understand what Yoochun said;

[The first reason for laughing out loud?]

JJ: When I was starting, a staff member suddenly tripped

- last time you said you were being laughed at by the staff (hahahaha XD)

JJ: Our staff members.... they aren't simple people. Recently, they've been working really hard (changing the topic? ^^)

JJ: Maybe it's on purpose

CM: It's very interesting

- you haven't taken a close look at the planetarium

CM: It's okay

- is it okay? Are you planning to come back after filming is finished?

CM: Please let me stay

YH: This time is the same as usual

YH: How do I say this... happy but a bit lonely

[Finding his own constellation sign]

YH: Aquarius...

YH: Where is it ....

- please take a good rest

YH: Hai~ Good-bye    Bye Bye !

[Even though he's the last to prepare, he's the first to finish!]

YC: Very happy

JJ: How come I'm the first to prepare but the last to finish

JJ: It seems like after you wear this you'll become very smart

YH: I'm fourth today~

-

That was so quick LOL please don't mind the grammar/typing mistakes ^^

[Trans] HMW Japan - Tohoshinki Survey

Recently, HMV did a survey on Tohoshinki and here are the results:

[Trans] 100206 Tohoshinki Sent Flowers to Koda Kumi for "IITOMO!"

My Heart Skipped a Beat♪ watching "IITOMO!"

Kumi Koda appeared in today’s "Waratte Iitomo!"
There was a flower stand from Tohoshinki~
Tamori-san (T/N: A very famous comedian. He has been the MC for this famous variety program for more than 25 years) took his time to say, "OH! TOHOSHINKI!"

My heart skipped a beat by just that, lol.

Tohoshinki appeared in this program 2 years ago…

(few sentences omitted)

I would like to see their cute moments once again.


Today’s "Iitomo" guest was Kumi Kouda

The guest for "Waratte Iitomo! Telephone Shocking" (broadcasted on Feb 5) was Kumi Kouda.
The flowers (T/N: celebrating her appearance) were sent from…

EXILE, hitomi, misono…BoA, Tohoshinki, Ayumi Hamasaki…

[Trans] 100205 Comedian & Fan Heo Anna Has Phone Conversation With TVXQ's Xiah Junsu

Comedian Heo Anna revealed that she was once in a situation where she somehow managed to have a phone conversation with TVXQ's Xiah Junsu.

In an interview with Donga.com, Heo Anna, who is garnering attention for her realistic drunk act in the 'The World Makes Me Sad (Drunk)' of KBS' 'Gag Concert', said, "My concept is a drunkard who follows male celebrities around. I target TVXQ and 2PM usually and in real life, I'm actually a fan," and "I was also able to grab the joyful opportunity of having a phone conversation with TVXQ's Xiah Junsu."

Fellow comedian Park Sung Gwang, who appears in the segment with her, was the one who connected her to Xiah Junsu.

But Heo Anna picked her ideal guy as a working man who is deeply understanding of others and gets off work on time rather than a celebrity.

On the other hand, Park Sung Gwang calls himself a 'Girls' Generation' fan, and said that he downloaded the music video of 'Oh!' as soon as it was released and watched it three times before he fell asleep.
