SS501’s Kim Kyu Jong reveals his ‘Prince Charming’ look for “Goong” musical

SS501’s Kim Kyu Jong has transformed into ‘Prince Charming’.
The idol was cast as the main character ‘Lee Shin‘ for the musical “Goong“. On April 13th, he finished the poster photoshoot for the performances in Japan, and unveiled his ‘prince look’ for the very first time.
Kim Kyu Jong donned a luxurious dress coat, and emphasized his royal position with his haughty facial expression and lax body language. Although his picture looks very arrogant, it’s said that he made the photoshoot atmosphere very bright with his funny quips and laid-back attitude.
After filming, the idol-turned-actor stated, “I received a lot of advice from TVXQ’s Yunho hyung, who played this role before. I worried a lot about being cast as the main character, but I was fascinated by connecting with the audience. It’s a little awkward now but I’ll present my own Kyu Jong prince, different from the past princes in the musical. I hope you’ll all be interested.”
The ‘Goong’ musical will run in Kyoto, Japan from June 11th to July 1st.

Kim HyuKim Joong always takes on Bae Yong Joon’s CF offers is “just a coincidence” !

Singapore – Kim Hyun Joong always takes over Bae Yong Joon’s CF is “just a coincidence” !
Ever after Kim Hyun Joong entering the new company and taking on Bae Yong Joon’s cf offers, many thought that this is the advertising plan of the company.
Kim Hyun Joong signed contract with Keyeast last June. He immediately begun his acting career and even progressed to Japan, further establishing his spot as a famous hallyu star, taking over his boss Bae Yong Joon as the spokesperson for cosmetic brand THE FACE SHOP. Recently, also becoming the endorser for Lotte Duty Free which was previously endorsed by Bae Yong Joon, proving that Kim Hyun Joong is really favoured by his boss Bae Yong Joon.
Rumors has it that there are private conditions involved when Kim Hyun Joong signed with Keyeast, and that was “kim hyun joong needs to take on bae yong joon’s cf offers”. Regarding to this rumor, Keyeast officials mentioned during an interview “do we really have the power to ask the companies to use the people we suggested as their spokesperson? Actually, its because of Kim Hyun Joong is a famous Hallyu star, and his image just so happen to match with the company’s standard” so the rumor is dismissed.
However, from the position of the agency, its natural for celebrities under the same management to take on same cf roles. And as everyone knows that Bae Yong Joon is very caring towards Kim Hyun Joong who is younger than him by 14 years.
Also, Kim Hyun Joong is going to release his solo album on his birthday 6th of June, right now he is preparing hard for it. The agency also mentioned that “recently, kim hyun joong is putting in 100% of his efforts in his new album. Practicing day and night, hoping to bring everyone his best performance, right now he is ready to meet once again as a singer, everyone please anticipate his new image.”

SS501’s Kim Kyu Jong to participate for the musical “GOONG” in Japan

Previously we reported that SS501’s Kim Kyu Jong would participate as the role of ‘Lee Shin (Prince Shin)’ in the musical “GOONG” which will be staged in Japan and now more information has arisen.

The musical premiered last year in Korea and TVXQ’s Yunho was cast as the leading role of Prince Shin. The musical was a hot topic because the attendance figures showed that more than 60% of the audience were foreigners with the Japanese making up the largest portion.

On Kim Kyu Jong’s role, the production company stated, “Kim Kyu Jong has already shown off his impressive vocal and dance talent while working with SS501. With his handsome looks, he’s distinguished himself in a variety of fields. We’re looking forward to working with him, as he is determined and passionate about his role.”

SS501’s Kim Hyung Joon shows off his language skills

On April 13th, SS501′s Kim Hyung Joon guested on MBC’s “Radio Star” and participated in a ‘blank sheet’ special with ZE:A’s Kwanghee and Kim Jong Min.

The nickname ‘blank sheet’ is normally associated with SECRET’s Sunhwa, and it’s used to express a person who’s clueless or dumb. For this special, the three were tested on their Chinese character skills, and were asked to write their names in ‘Hanja’.

Kim Hyung Joon was unfortunately the only one to get it wrong and excused himself by exclaiming, “It’s because I used to live in Australia.”

When asked how long he lived there, he hilariously replied, “Two years.”

The men were also tested on their English skills, which Kim Hyung Joon expressed his confidence with.  When asked to write ‘Boys Be Ambitious’, Kim Hyung Joon mistakenly wrote ‘voice’ for ‘boys’ and switched out the ‘a’ in ‘ambitious’ with an ‘e’.

He once again joked by giving the excuse, “The pronunciation was a bit weird.” Unfortunately, the MCs saw right through his excuse and amused themselves by teasing him endlessly.
