Kim Hyun Joong shares his final thoughts on 'Generation of Youth'

 

 

 

 

Kim Hyun Joong shared what it was like to return to the small screen for the KBS 2TV drama ' Generation of Youth', which aired its finale on April 3.

 

Kim Hyun Joong shared on the set of the final filming on the morning of the 3rd, "As I acted with respected sunbaenims, I learned a lot, and I think I was able to work harder in my acting because I met such a cool character like Shin Jung Tae... Although I am lacking a lot, thank you to the fans who supported me until the end and all of the viewers who loved 'Generation of Youth'."

 

"I will enjoy a break for the time being and prepare for my next activities. I will greet you again with improved acting and singing through what I learned from this drama."

 

'Generation of Youth' came to an end at #1 in its time slot, confirming Kim Hyun Joong's successful return as an actor after four years.

Kim Hyun Joong discusses his buddies Yoochun & T.O.P's acting

 

 

Kim Hyun Joong talked about his friends Yoochun and T.O.P!

 

Kim Hyun Joong had an interview with TV Daily after his drama 'Generation of Youth' ended on a high note. In the interview, he was asked, "Do you often talk with idol singers who are also active as actors?"

 

He answered, "I think the cases of idol members to actors that succeeded well are Yoochun and [T.O.P]. When I called [T.O.P], he said he was working hard on filming the movie 'Tazza'. I only hear Yoochun from rumors, but they say he really focuses on his work."

 

He continued, "He's not just pretending. He tries to melt into the role and communicate with the director. Yoochun is normally a very warm person. People who are good at acting need good emotions, and Yoochun is like that. If you see people who don't succeed, they think, 'Since he can do it, I can do it too', but they only say the lines without emotion. On that, Yoochun and [T.O.P] are on another level."

Kim Hyun Joong denies that he is dating After School's UEE

 

 

Kim Hyun Joong talked about the rumors of him dating After School's UEE!

 

Back when both of them were starring on 'Barefoot Friends', a rumor had spread that the duo were actually dating. According to rumors, Kim Hyun Joong had introduced UEE to his friends as his girlfriend. Even though the rumors quieted after the show ended, it still pops up from time to time.

 

In an interview he had with Star Today, he was asked about the rumors. He answered, "It's not true at all. To be honest, I trusted these rumors out of instinct. But now that I became one of the subjects, I realized they're not believable. I heard through the rumors that I was dating UEE, and we laughed together when we saw it. After that, the staff kept teasing us, so I jokingly said 'she's my girlfriend', and that became the fuel for another round of rumors. It's a scary world."

 

He added, "We were all close during the filming, but I don't think I could ever be dating UEE like the rumors suggest."

"I think it was good for us to leave while still receiving the love of many. I don't believe we disbanded but considering the current circumstances, we're under different agencies so not only are we not able to use the name SS501 but we're not ready for it either. 

 

Of course, I know there are certain groups who have gotten back together and gone on tours and held concerts but for me, I don't want to use our past memories that I cherish for commercial reasons. I think we should only do something together when we all want it and are ready. I don't want to change our good memories into something fake. 

 

When I meet the other members, we talk about how we should work hard in our respective fields and maybe in the future, when the opportunity comes up, let's do whatever it is we want to do with the people we want to do it with. All we have to do is sing, isn't it? Honestly, we don't have the confidence to be SS501 again. We're open enough with each other to say things like that now."

 

-

 

1. [+183, -6] It's because he shot to popularity on his own 

 

2. [+123, -21] Rare to find a group that disbanded as cleanly as they did

 

3. [+134, -38] Kim Hyun Joong got way too popular on his own with 'Boys Over Flowers'... but still, there are many SS501 fans waiting for their return, what does that make them when he says he doesn't have confidence to brin gthe group back?

 

4. [+18, -4] DSP overworked Kim Hyun Joong... and he's the only one who got popular while SS501's activities were mismanaged. They naturally became Kim Hyun Joong and the Idols. Did you all know SS501 only has one album? They're nine years running and only one album... 

 

5. [+18, -3] They debuted as TVXQ's rivals. A shame that the rest excluding Kim Hyun Joong didn't make it as popular as he did. There were members who sang better than him but he was more handsome so he got the spotlight earlier. People say his acting's improved lately but he was so bad in Boys Over Flowers... and I think he's one of those cases where he only got popular off of his looks.

 

6. [+13, -8] Honestly speaking, aside from Kim Hyun Joong, there wasn't any other member that would've gotten popular. They all looked like they got nose jobs done and none of them sang or danced spectacularly well. They got their name known off of the title of being TVXQ's rivals. Honestly speaking, their popularity was pretty pitiful compared to TVXQ ã…‹ã…‹ The group only lasted as long as it did because of Kim Hyun Joong. 

 

7. [+12, -2] As a fan, it still bothers me to this day that the group only has one album to name. The agency never kept its promise of releasing any more and all they did was release singles and Japanese activities. I remember even the members wanted to pay to produce their second album~ If only they started Japanese promotions later, things might've turned out differently... They spent a year in Japan at the height of their fame. 

 

8. [+10, -5] I wonder what happened to Park Jung Min. He's hilarious.

Kim Hyun Joong shares his thoughts on idol life and dating

 

 

 

 

Kim Hyun Joong sat down for an interview with Sports Seoul, which also happened to be on the day that Nichkhun and Tiffany went public with their relationship, making it inevitable that the veteran idol star would be asked to give his two cents on idols dating.

 

Kim Hyun Joong shared, "[The competition] was intense during my twenties. Ever since I started as an idol, there was no time to rest, and I wasn't able to date properly... I think the social conditions have changed a lot these days, so it feels new and different."

 

"I don't regret it even if it means not being able to date properly. Although it felt like an invasion of privacy at times, in order to become a singer, I was the only one selected out of 1 million people who auditioned and made my debut... I endured through it and thought that I should be happy for this very reason."

"If I were to become an idol again, I don't think I would be able to do it... Since idols are not considered as singers, in the U.S you think of *NSYNC as artists, but in our country and Japan, [the general public] does not consider idols as artists and their image is restricting."

 

"Idols can date too ,but I think at one point, we were brainwashed into thinking that idols can't date... Even if idols act, they have a disadvantage because of their idol background, and even if they buy a car, people make sarcastic remarks. I think there is that stereotype concerning idols... Although they are young, they are also human and should be acknowledged as people of this culture so it's unfortunate."

 

"I used to like girls who I liked [instead of the other way around], but as I did 'Generation of Youth', I thought for the first time that I can be swayed by a girl who treats me well... I felt it was nice to have a pretty girl who treats me and takes care of me well... Although I am the type to have to like a girl first to like her at all, as I observed Ok Ryun (Jin Se Yeon), I felt that I should marry this kind of girl."

I agree with everything he said.  Their era is passed and gone, even if there'd be a reunion I hope it's for the sake of old memories and not a real reunion of the group to the world.  The competition is too big; the group will not last long what with many rookies' popularity higher than SS501's during their golden era.

I cherish this boyband because they are my first love.  I hope they will remain this way in the future.

Kim Hyun Joong reveals he dated in secret a year ago + remains firm on his stance that he will never go public with a relationship

 

 

Kim Hyun Joong remained firm on his decision that he will never go public with a relationship.

 

In a recent interview with Newsen, Kim Hyun Joong was asked about marriage given that he is in his late twenties. He shared that marriage might not be in the cards for him, "I don't think I will be able to... I have to go to the military and if I do other things, I will be over 35 years old... In the past, I thought that I really have to [get married someday] but now I don't have confidence. I love work so much so I don't think I will be able to be faithful to my family. If a dilemma suddenly comes about in my drama, singing, and concerts one day, then I think I will do it."

 

He was also asked about his love life to which he honesty remarked, "If I say I don't date, that would be a lie... I dated in secret about a year ago, but I am not dating currently."

 

He also added, "I want to date a bit more comfortably now. I think a relationship based on impulsive passion and clinging on is not that great... A normal dating relationship is the best. Rather than buying flowers and doing surprise events, eating and holding hands while walking is better. I didn't realize that sometimes normal and ordinary things are the best when I was younger, but I am feeling it now."

 

"I will never go public with a relationship. I noticed that when people date publicly and breakup it's the woman that has to suffer for it. I don't think there is any need for a woman, who may be later married, to have the title of being 'someone's woman' following them... If I'm not going to marry that person, I will never go public with a relationship out of respect for that person's life."

 

Kim Hyun Joong previously denied dating rumors with After School's UEE and after reading his stance on never going public with a relationship, shippers are left wondering if this could mean that there was some truth to the rumors. However, it seems we will never know as Kim Hyun Joong seems like a man who will fight to protect those close to him and kudos to him for that!

Kim Hyung Jun attends memorial service for the deceased victims of Sewol

 

Kim Hyung Jun became the next celebrity to give his condolences in person at the memorial service for the deceased students and teachers of the sunken ferry Sewol.

 

After finishing his drama filming schedule on the morning of the 26th, Kim Hyung Jun attended the makeshift memorial service held at Olympic Memorial Hall in Ansan, Gyeonggido alongside his manager and soccer team FC Avengers.

 

His agency SH Entertainment rep told Newsen, "I belatedly found out about it. After completing filming for his drama, he quietly attended it and checked to make sure he wasn't caught by the cameras outside of the memorial alter. I heard he cried. After hearing that story, I looked fondly upon [Kim Hyung Jun]."

 

The official memorial service will be held at Hwarang Park, Ansan starting on April 29.
