TVXQ’s 3rd Asia Tour MIROTIC Concert Has 4 Billion Won Effects

The 3rd live tour concert of Asia top group Dong Bang Shin Ki is expected to earn at least 4 billion won from foreign country fans.

It’s not talking about the money that will be earn by SMTOWN through the concert alone, but to the economy in general.

It’s confirmed that their foreign Asian fans to attend coming from Japan, China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Singapore, Thailand, Malaysia, Vietnam, etc will be approximately about 2000 people.

Those number are dominated by Japanese fans, as explained by some hotel managers that they weren’t able to handle all room bookings by Japanese guests who were mostly coming to see TVXQ’s concert, made most hotels around concert area are already fully-booked at around the concert date.

The factors of this excitement are predicted, first, due to the concert’s date itself which are during weekends, when most people have their free time. And second, due to the popularity of TVXQ’s 4th album MIROTIC which had been at top popular charts of many asian countries such as Korea, Japan, Taiwan, and Thailand. Thus, it’s increasing the fans’ curiosity to see TVXQ’s starting point concert in the boys’ very own home country.

2008: DBSK’s Best Year Ever

The night of 29th, 7 PM, Kimpo Airport Entrance. The five stars barely got on the van with the help of their securities, going past the amazing amount of fans. The van leaves hastily, and there are at least a good ten taxi’s trailing the van. No it’s not a chase or a movie scene. It’s the five membered boy band “DBSK” and their scene of entrance.

On this day, DBSK finished their rehearsal for a Japanese end of year special show and flew back to Korea to participate in the “SBS Gayo Daejun“. They flew back to Japan on the thirtieth to receive the “Best Piece” Award. On the thirty-first they will be on NHK Kouhaku uta Gassen. Such a killer-schedule tells us how famous they have become.

DBSK sold 46000 copies of their new album “The fourth album: JUMON-MIROTIC”, which is their comeback album after a hiatus of 1 year and seven months. They re-instated that they were the best group, once again. In Japan, they’re known as Tohoshinki. Tohoshinki have acheived the number one rank on Oricon weekly charts four times. Since they were so busy, their interview had to be done on the moving van.

Q: Due to the song “JUMON-MIROTIC”, I think our fandom has become a bigger place.

Yunho: In airplanes, not only do the air hostesses request of our autographs but the pilots also. I’m very pleased that their have been an increase of DBSK manfans. During the (can't understand this), we were known as the group that sing hard songs. But now we hear from people we now sing songs that people in the thirties can also sing along to.Jaejoong: I think we’ve become a national Idol. There are a lot of woman fans that say to us, “You guys all look like man now. We see you as man now.” Our management even told us, “You can start dating now. It’ll help with your images, to look manly.” But we have no time to meet women.

Q: I think you guys have had some difficult heartaches, during all those times.

Junsu: We were afraid of the people that kept looking us with the set mind of, “DBSK are no longer the “it” people in Korea. Your songs are no longer the trend.” We were afraid and worried during the period we were getting ready for our comeback. So we made up our minds strong. We wanted to hear, “DBSK, they’re definitely something else / They’re different from other singers.Changmin: JUMON-MIROTIC is a song that has DBSK’s color mixed with Pop. It’s a song that gave re-birth to DBSK.

Q: Hasn’t the fact that Gagman Wangbiho (Yoon Hyung Bin) said, “DBSK’s fanclub consists of 80000 people, but how come you can only sell 10000 copies of album?”

helped you in the selling of your album?Yunho: I admit that completely. And thus I’m grateful. His word wasn’t a pact or a rule. But more of a suspicion of, “If you are their fan, then you should be buying their albums.” I hear that other artists have increased in their selling of albums also. I think fandom culture has really improved if you see the fans these days that clean up after everyone in concerts, and donate money towards the members’ birthdays.

Q: I think you guys have achieve a rival line with the group “Big Bang”.

Junsu: Big Bang and we sing a different type of music, and thus we don’t think we’re better then them. Big Bang are people, who know how to have fun yet perform good on stage. I think, when we go on stage that “We’re the best on this stage”, but I think they think that too.

Q: I hear “JUMON-MIROTIC” got banned by the Commision of Youth ProtectionYoochun: I don’t understand it. So that’s why I feel like we’ve inconvenienced everyone. When we went to the Golden Disk Awards to receive the Daesang, we had to change some lyrics, but the original feel just didn’t come alive. I’m sure the people that listened felt the same also.

Q: Ever since your debut, you have grown so very fast!

Junsu: Like some said, we’re only eating the rice that other people have deliciously made. It’s just that we also put in that much effort, and eat the rice with ‘Golden Spoons’.

Q: What is DBSK’s dream?

Yunho: It is our dream to be able to continue doing K-Pop music that only we’d be able to pull off. It is also our job, our duty to get rid of the misconception that idols can only dance good but can’t sing or have no idea of what good singing is.
