SS501 - Triple S Philippines Blog

Hiatus.

2011-05-29T01:25:00.004+08:00

Hi guys,

I thought it was going to be just a short hiatus, but it turned out longer than I expected. I miss blogging and I miss SS501. Words can't even describe the withdrawal effects I'm having, ever since I stopped blogging. I've been following our boys' solo activities, but I just don't have time to blog anymore. Life is so busy for me right now, and frankly speaking, I don't know when I'll come back to blogging. It's not an easy decision. But one thing's for sure, I will never stop being a Triple S. I love these 5 boys so much and news of them everyday continue to make me sane and relieve my stress. Everyday, I still silently follow SS501, keep myself up to date with what's happening to them, and I will always support them. I'll wait for the day when they will come back as a group. When the 5 will be 1 on stage again. I appreciate the pretties who are still visiting this blog and I hope someday, I can still come back. I'm sorry for those who are disappointed. :( I'm sad too, but I just can't deal with blogging at this point in my life. So I'm currently on pause, indefinitely. I hope you guys understand, and I hope you will never give up on SS501. I miss you all.

Forever a Triple S,

2011-05-20T19:11:00.004+08:00

I was tensed and excited at the same time while watching Music Bank this afternoon and waiting with bated breath for the announcement of the winner for K-Chart. When they announced F(x) was the winner, my heart dropped. I really really wanted Young Saeng to win, and I think he really deserved to win. But oh well, no use bashing and ranting. We are, after all, Triple S, the most peaceful fandom. Kekeke. Anyway, what matters most is that YS made us proud, being up in the running for No. 1 just on his 2nd week of comeback! That's already a great feat, right?! We are so proud of you Saengie! You'll always be a winner in our hearts!

Heo Young Saeng Comeback Stage @ M! Countdown

2011-05-19T23:05:00.008+08:00

Heo Young Saeng stood tall and alone on his solo comeback stage successfully.

On the 19th of May during the broadcast of Mnet ‘Countdown’, Heo Young Saeng performed his solo song “Out the Club” and “Let It Go” passionately and with an air of masculine.

During the first stage of “Out the Club”, Heo Young Saeng presented his handsome outer appearance and superior dance skills, showing off his “Bad Boy” image.
During the second stage of “Let It Go”, it is a complete and high stage performance that reminds everyone of a musical, effectively allowing him to shed off his previous image as a group, releasing an infinite amount of his dandy ‘Cool City Guy’ appeal.

‘Out the Club’ is a song of fast tempo, resembling strong American Club dance song, giving rise to a rhythmical and synthetizing stage with a strong beat. ‘Let It Go’ extrudes a groove feel and a sweet melody that is simple and yet also strong and powerful, with a vibrant chorus mixed with a melancholic feel.

Recently, because he had injured his right hand, the fans have been very concerned, but his clean performance on stage has allowed the fans’ hearts to be put at ease.

Heo Young Saeng Tops Hanteo Charts

2011-05-17T14:31:00.004+08:00

SS501 Heo Youngsaeng has ascended on Hanteo Chart’s Weekly No.1 throne.

On May 12, Heo Youngsaeng who’s released his first solo mini album ‘Let it go’ had achieved No.1 for Realtime results on the Hanteo Charts with his album sales, and also No.1 on the Daily Charts. In addition to this, the total album sales across 4 days (until May 16) has also been calculated as a total of 17,000 pieces, which is thus No.1 on the Hanteo Weekly Charts. This is a very luxurious opening to his solo debut.

Heo Youngsaeng broke out of the impressions of everyone by singing a dance track ‘Let it go’ instead of ballads, and has successfully showed a different side of his from SS501 days. He has since been receiving good comments like ‘Rediscovery of Heo Youngsaeng’ from the masses.

For an idol group singer like Heo Youngsaeng, he’s also been showing signs of unusual success digitally-wise. Though usually an idol group-borne singer who turns solo after that could not achieve as good results digitally-wise when compared to album sales, for Heo Youngsaeng’s case, he’s managed to maintain his ranking in the Top 10 charts of music sites like MELON, Bugs, Dosirak, Soribada etc, and has also been receiving good responses with his stages through music programmes.

Awwwww, I'm so touched by Young Saeng's words... okay, first... I was smiling stupidly reading the 1st part, as he is so cute in the way he writes! I can just imagine him smiling while writing his shoutouts to the people who helped him with his album. Then I came to the last part, and reading his message to his members, I cried. Every Triple S will be touched by those words. "Till the five of us are one again, let's work hard" this is music to the ears of every green pea. You guys agree? And of course, that single line for the Triple S fans... it's just a simple line, but it goes straight to the heart. And I also loved when he wrote "This has been SS501 Young Saeng..." This makes me so happy! Let's thank YS by supporting him all the way!

Heo Young Saeng in SS501 group as an "INDIVIDUAL"

2011-05-16T01:39:00.001+08:00

Heo Young Saeng (25 years old) in SS501 group as an "INDIVIDUAL".

On 12 May 1st solo mini album title song "LET IT GO" was released. When SS501 main vocalist Heo Young Saeng was in SS501, his exceptional treble vocals capability has already prepared him for a route of being a solo singer. Now that he has start his solo activities, he still have other plans ahead.

Q: Year 2005 debut as part of SS501 group, released a solo album for the 1st time. Seems to feel the burden?
YS: Firstly looking forward. But feel the burden. During the group activities, when I am lacking, the other members can be a good fill for me. At the same time during the recording of variety shows and also the shooting of MV too. Now that I am doing all this alone is making me feeling empty. But now that hundred percent of the focus is on me which is a good thing.

Q: During when you are having SS501 activities, ever have the thoughts of having solo activities?
YS: In actual fact, yes. But our schedules were totally packed during that time. Initially there were plans to release solo album, but it's a pity that it wasnt achieved.

Q: Comparing to group and solo debut are there are kind of look you wanna potray?
YS: If mentioned about Heo Young Saeng, people will tend to think about ballads. SS501 songs are usually dance songs, but because I am the main vocalist, thus the image of me as a ballad solo singer is more deep in people. So I asked my friends: "What should I sing?" I got "sing ballads" as the answer. "How about dancing?" "You will be remain better singing." Thus I find that those people really dont understand my thinking. I myself also like dance songs. Ballads which only sing will feel bored. Dance song can enjoy with the audience together.

Q: "LET IT GO" is not the usually dance song feel.
YS: The producer of Kara's hit song produced this song. 4Minute HyunA did a featuring for me. It is about a girl who have the faith in shouting her love and also can leave the guy kinda dance song.

Q: You are the 3rd SS501 member that start solo activities. Park Jung Min and Kim Hyung Jun also started their solo activities. What are your thoughts?
YS: Although having solo songs is good, but solo activities is a bit lonely. Even though feeling lonely but still anticipate to see my own new image.

Q: Will SS501 still be together?
YS: In actual fact we did have plans to have a digital release. But due to that we are now in different companies and also are still in the midst of having our solo activities thus it is tough, everyone have discussed it. Members said: "If this is the case, let's build up our foundation by having all our solo activities, we will re-group again the next round." Even though we do not have any specific plan, but for sure that: "All the members still wants to be together."

Q: Kim Hyun Joong, Park Jung Min and Kim Hyung Jun now are now in different companies states that: "The difference between us is that Young Saeng and Kyu Jong are both in the same companies, thus compared to other members, they do not really feel lonely."
YS: In any case better than other members who are feeling lonely. But with Kyu Jong we still have friends and colleagues which we knew from previous company which is good. And in DSP Media who have worked together before, the current CEO and also Lee Hyori noona, thus the feeling is rather good.

Q: Other than singing, are u interested in acting or other areas?
YS: Many. For a long time I have been quite concerned about acting. Due to that I started out as a singer, thus singing is still remain top priority. If there is a chance, I wanna challenge acting in dramas.

Heo Young Saeng and Kim Kyu Jong both have signed on together with a new company, and even held their fanmeeting together. Recently Heo Young Saeng also released his own solo album.

"Almost 1 year, because I trusted my current company, thus I choose to change my previous company. During SS501 activities period, we have worked together before. Now that I am in the same company as Lee Hyori noona, but due to her busy schedule, thus we only met each other twice. In any case I feel that it's a pity. Although group activities together would be the best, but still would like to have some solo activities. Currently I am quite upset separating from the members, but we still keep in contact."

During when Heo Young Saeng was having SS501 activities period, due to his outstanding vocals which is recognised by everyone making him stand out. Young Saeng also naturally said that his image postion thus being recognised as that. But this album however showcase his outstanding vocals and his musical talents. Title song "LET IT GO" is a very unique lively dance melody, which features HyunA member of 4Minute who participated in the recording.

"During last Nov entering into the new company, start preparing for the new album. Only start album production in this Feb. If the response for this album is good, we will only start the plan for overseas activities/promotions. Of course, must sing. This time, "LET IT GO" comeback stage will showcase me and my 6 dancers. I am very grateful to HyunA for helping me featuring in my song, but it seems that the fans are jealous."

12 May during the releasing of the album, other than the main title song, the album also consist of the song "OUT THE CLUB" which was produced by Tae Hwan who also produced RAIN's album, retro beat but full of modern feel "I'M BROKEN" and also "RAINY HEART" featuring Kyu Jong for the rap part.

During the process of the album preparations, Heo Young Saeng fratured his right hand while practicing for his dance, no choice but to delay the release of his album. Even though he has not fully recover, he still insist to go on with the promotions. Not only music activities, he also participated in all the recordings of the variety shows vigorously. We can see that Young Saeng is totally immersed in the album promotions with his energy and passion.

As a member of SS501, Heo Young Saeng stated: "Now that everyone of us will give each other encouragement. Currently it is hard for us to re-group together, but we will discuss this matter next year. Now the aim is to concentrate in promoting my own solo album. The only word which I can introduce my album is "Change of image", put aside the image that I have SS501, everyone will know after they have seen it."

Heo Young Saeng Talks About His Solo Album And His Hand Injury

2011-05-14T18:22:00.005+08:00

Temporarily Put Aside SS501, Heo Young Saeng Solo "LET IT GO"

Following Kim Hyun Joong, Park Jung Min amd Kim Hyung Jun, SS501 member Heo Young Saeng again as a solo singer starts his solo activities.

After a hiatus of 1 year, he released his 1st mini album "LET IT GO" and returned back to the fans side. For the 1st time to come on stage as a solo, in actual fact he is quite pressurized, but Young Saeng still gave a faint smile.

"Feeling stress, not knowing whether can do it till the end. But for the 1st time using my own name, feeling a little nervous standing on the stage, but I still engjoy the feeling."

Having said that, but the debut album's first stop in the process of making the album was produced with the company on behalf of the differences of opinion.

Initially Heo Young Saeng's debut album was supposed to be released in Feb. But in order not to rush but to be careful in the album production, thus the album release was delayed. During the process, Young Saeng had a fierce "war" with the company due to differences in ideas and opinion when accepting and recording of songs.

"I think this is the first SOLO album, I would like to start a new image, while the representatives that the melody is more important. "

"If were to go according to a fixed idea it will not be successful" must breakthrough from the expected, use a dance track as the main title song for his solo released, Heo Young Saeng listened to his company representative advise.

"According to the idea and after confirming the title song, then start to do my best for the dance choregraphy for this song." so that is how the title song "LET IT GO" was emerged. This song can showcase Heo Young Saeng dance of passion. As the main vocalist of SS501, many people believe that Young Saeng title song will definitely showcase his strength in ballad singing, but "LET IT GO" has break those people's thinking. "If asked 10 people, there will be 8 people says that you will be singing ballads, it is because of this, thus we wanna break this this concept which people have, if we dont breakthrough this concept there are no chance of winning.

When Heo Young Saeng was practicing for his dance, his right hand knocked into the mirror of the dance practice room, causing a fracture, which needs 4 weeks to recuperate. Even though his injuries caused the album to be delayed, but Young Saeng still remains optimistic: "With this delayed, in fact it can give me more time to be better prepared."

Although he really miss the times when the 5 members are together, but the 5 together as 1 will be slightly delayed. "Everyone now is with different companies, although we have idea of coming together again, but it is easier said than done. After our solo activities have come to a total end, we will fix it next year to discuss this specific issue."

Reason why Heo YoungSaeng doesn't appear in entertainment programs? "I am Mysterious"

Heo YoungSaeng from SS501 reveals the reason why we don't see him on entertainment programs often.

In KBS2TV 'Happy Together' broadcasted on 12-May, Heo YoungSaeng explained why he did not attend much of entertainment programs with the other SS501 members.

"That is because I am playing the role of mysteriousness" Heo YoungSaeng started saying "I'm not good in talking". Therefore the concept he thought for himself is shy prince. In addition, he added "I'm not like this usually", arousing a round of laughter.

On the question asked by Yoo JaeSuk "What is your original concept?", Heo YoungSaeng responded "Well, just a chic guy", making the MCs lost for words. Park MiSeon misheard and asked "Joint pain?" and aroused another round of laughter.

Heo Young Saeng feat. HyunA from 4Minute

2011-05-12T20:53:00.000+08:00

Heo Young Saeng “Featuring HyunA, Deliberately Not Go To Recording Studio” Why? (Interview)

Heo YoungSaeng from SS501, will be returning back as a solo singer with the release of his very first mini album ‘Let It Go’. Releasing a solo album after 7 years of debut, Heo YoungSaeng packed full this album with his own vocal.

Same titled title song as his album, ‘Let It Go’ is a song about a different way of love between the male and female. With the unique beautiful voice of Heo YoungSaeng as a cold indifferent guy in front of love. The desire of expression of love which is the mind of the female, is expressed through the sensual raps by HyunA from 4Minute.

Heo YoungSaeng said “When HyunA had to come to the recording studio for the featuring, my other work ended late and I was contemplating if I should go but I didn’t go in the end. Because we didn’t know each other, so it seems like it will be awkward for each other, I didn’t go so that she can record comfortably. HyunA’s rap tone is good, and she did great for me.”

With a character who is somewhat shy of strangers, Heo YoungSaeng said “These days, everyone are close to each other without distinction of girl groups and boy groups. During our times, it would become a news issue if you are close with someone. Now looking at these friends who debut, I wonder why we cannot become closer to each other. I heard from other friends that they said that SS501 is difficult (to get close to) as being a senior. And because I am not the style who will make a first move, so I feel envious looking at them.”

In a situation where there are continuously strong (opponents) releasing music files, his position is that he must face the competition with them naturally. Won’t he feel the pressure from the situation to face fierce competition with his first solo album?

Heo YoungSaeng said “I think successful singers should release more songs/albums so that music fans can listen to more music and watch more music programs. This will then become a win win situation for everyone.”

Recently injured of the back of his hand and ligament which forces the postponement of the album release, Heo YoungSaeng has not fully recovered from the injury and have not been able to use his hand freely like before. Despite that, he is full of confidence. He laughed “I leave the worries inside myself, but will be good to to be seen as confident on the outside. I am confident, but my company is very worried. Which makes me lose a little confidence recently.”

SS501’s Heo Young Saeng Almost Killed Kim Hyun Joong?!

2011-05-11T19:46:00.005+08:00

SS501′s Heo Young Saeng, who released a teaser for his solo debut last week, revealed that he almost killed fellow SS501 member Kim Hyun Joong by accident.

During a recent recording of KBS 2TV’s “Happy Together 3“, Heo Young Saeng confessed, “I almost killed Kim Hyun Joong by accidentally starting a fire”

He explained,

"One night, Kim Hyun Joong and I were drinking at our house. We often light candles at our place and so that day, without fail, we drank after lighting candles.

While we were doing so, an acquaintance called and asked me to come out for a bit. I ended up leaving Kim Hyun Joong who was sleeping to go out. As I was meeting with my acquantainces, I was shocked when I got a call saying that there had been a fire in our house.

I rushed home and saw that 9-1-1 had already come and it was a big mess. I was so worried about Kim Hyun Joong, who was sleeping inside the house, so I quickly went inside to find that Kim Hyun Joong was still sleeping, even though there had been a fire. He was safe, and the house didn’t get damaged that much either.

I was so sorry to Kim Hyun Joong who almost died because of me, but Kim Hyun Joong laughed as he said, ‘Well, you have a story to tell on broadcast now’."

This broadcast of “Happy Together 3″ will air on May 12th.

2011-05-08T23:11:00.004+08:00

Kim Kyu Jong Interview (Japanese Musical GOONG Official Blog)

During the beginning of the shooting, the 2 of them were posing with different angles. Showing a bright smile and occasionally will start to do some mischievous expressions.

In between, there is a japanese photographer who is shooting Kyu Jong.

Before the interpreter came, Kyu Jong is trying to meet the [move in front a little] [move right] japanese instruction, rapidly changing position.

Perhaps... ...? Wanna personally greet the photograher said [it doesnt matter speaking Japanese].

Kyu Jong, seems like he is quite strong in his Japanese language!

Below is the interview of Kyu Jong.

Q: What is your thoughts about premiering in Kyoto?
Kyu: It's been a long time since I came to Japan, the difference is that prior this was SS501 concert, now it is Musical, thus I am very nervous.

Q: Being a singer what is the difference having a concert and musical?
Kyu: The activities of a singer, speaking of this it should be our own stand in the performance. Whereas for Musical it letting the audience experience the different feelings of the scenerios.

Q: Now that you are not SS501 but as Kim Kyu Jong identity doing solo activities, what are your thoughts?
Kyu: It is one's journey to digest, have seen some aspects not found before, time for reflections is getting more. Seems to learn more things faster. But have been together with the SS501 members for the past 5~6 years thus it really feels lonely doing solo activities. Although I feel that I lack of something, but when reaching a certain age, comparing to playing now I am more concentrating in my work, cos I want to show a more hardworking and mature side of me.

Q: In the musical, there is a love triangle between Chae Kyeong, Prince Yul & Prince Shin. So is Kyu Jong and any of your friend happened to like the same girl before?
Kyu: I am a person who is rather shy and who dont speak a lot. But to a person whom I like I would never easily give up just like that, I would make her to become my girlfriend.

Q: Before going into your musical practice, what other musicals have you watched?
Kyu: I have watched GREASE, CAFEIN, LUNATIC and PRISON musical before.

Q: GREASE & CAFEIN were acted by SS501 Park Jung Min and Kim Hyung Jun respectively, so did the 2 of them give you any musical advice?
Kyu: They did told me "dont be nervous". For the 1st day of the stage pressure, they did not call me (smile). It is like they dont want me to get nervous. They told me to "Enjoy the Pressure". The members' advice gave me a lot of strength.

Q: 1st time challenging an acting musical role, how do you feel?
Kyu: It is real tough. Even though after accepting this project and started a little acting practice, but so far there are lots of areas which I do not understand.
After learning so much, the difficulty of performing experience, thus when I recalled how I used to tease the members "why act so stupid" after watching their performances or dramas, I really feel that I am very shallow. (smile)

Q: After the 2 of them have worn the 3 different elegant outfit, being asked which one is their favourite musical outfit of Goong?
Kyu: Used to think when will I have the chance to wear this kind of outfit and having this kind of role or project, thus I am very nervous and happy. Have not been able to wear this kind of outfit, very happy. I especially like the last wedding outfit.

Q: Please say something to the Japanese fans.
Kyu: I am honored to be in June at Kyoto performance hall to show everyone a better look.

Please look forward to the [Musical GOONG] performances!

Kim Hyun Joong's Official Homepage Was Hacked

2011-05-08T18:17:00.004+08:00

There are really people who have nothing better to do. Using KHJ's website to collect money from fans?! Bad. Bad. Bad.

SS501’s Kim Hyun Joong, who recently opened fanclub membership for his new solo fanclub, “Henecia“, reported that his official homepage was recently hacked. Cyber investigations have begun, and KeyEast has asked fans to refrain from submitting membership applications for the time being.

The hacker changed the notification post so that fans were now required to pay a $35 USD membership fee, and even went as far as to change the bank accounts associated with it.

Another false post was made, informing fans that they would receive a special fan-meet opportunity with the star in Jeju Island for an extra fee of $100 USD. An additional $800 USD fee was asked for those wanting a 1:1 dinner meal opportunity.

Representatives of KeyEast stated, “The official homepage was recently hacked. We would like to inform fans that the account listed in the notification is not KeyEast’s account, and that the Jeju Island fan-meeting is also false and has nothing to do with KeyEast. We will be halting all membership applications for Henecia for the time being.”

They continued, “The case has been turned over to cyber investigations. We would like to apologize for raising concerns.”

The homepage has currently blocked all visitors.

Here's the notice from KEYEAST:

Hello, this is Keyeast.

This morning, due to an external hacking attack attempt of our official homepage, a change in the depositing bank account number was made and that caused much worries from all of you. We are aware about that and thus we are here to give a notice on this.

The depositing bank account was changed to Woocheguk Bank with Payee being Jaein Office and account number being 013102-02-456508. The above mentioned account is not an account of Keyeast's. Also, many notices from all of you are being written continuously and posted with personal phone numbers and emails inclusive.

Because of this hacking attempt, all joining applications and bank transferring or depositioning of money for joining into the official fanclub 'Henecia' is now temporarily suspended, and we hope that no more damage will be incurred with response to any of these additional deposition of money.

In addition, the newly added activity post in the 'Schedule' category as above of this 'Jeju-do Fanmeeting' that was said to be held on June 1 is also false information; it is of zero relation to Keyeast altogether, so by making this notice, we hope for no confusion from all of you.

For the sake of all you fans' safety and to ensure no more damage made, Keyeast is currently licensing with the Cyber Terror Police on cooperation of this. For those fans who have already fallen into this trap by depositing your money into the Woocheguk Bank, please note that you must definitely send in and inform your details on this scam with our fanclub in-charge personnel through either phone calling or through email (henecia@hyun-joong.com).

We truly apologize with an apologetic heart for causing inconvenience to all foreign and domestic fans who always give all of your love towards Kim Hyunjoong-ssi. After restoration work is completed, only then will the application for the official fanclub continue as per normal. We will inform on this again through another notice by then.

Thank you.

Hello, this is Hyun Joong
2011/04/29　　Hyun Joong

I will go to Osaka on 2nd May.
I’m going for the Playful Kiss promotion event, it’s been while since I’ve been to Osaka and I’m feeling excited.
In Osaka, I want to eat Takoyaki(ball-shaped dumpling filled with baby octopus) and of course I also want to eat Gyu-don (Beef bowl) too.
Japanese fans will be seeing me in my short hair. Do not be surprised at the style that you are not used to see.
Recently I’m into sports and my body frame has become bigger… From now onwards, I would be showing everyone the manly feeling.
In June (at Korea), we are planning a showcase for the sales of the album, please look forward to it.
The choreography, jacket etc for the album…. all parts have been taken with care one by one so please take your time to look at it.
After May has passed and when June comes, let’s fly up together once more.
At that time, I will bring the album to visit Japan so please look forward to it.
Please be live well and smile happily. Thank you.

Park Jung Min's Arrival In Hong Kong

2011-04-22T23:17:00.000+08:00

Here are a few pics and a video clip of JM arriving in Hong Kong for a fanmeeting. Watching the video, I was worried that the security is poor, JM was even pushed and almost fell down. He could have easily gotten hurt! T_T I really think that the airport security should have organized the fans well. There were barricades but why is it that some of the fans were able to get too close?! It would have been alright if they weren't pushing and just allowed JM to pass by, and just followed calmly. I really hope that they will tighten the security next time. It's not gonna be a pretty sight if the idol gets hurt or any fan for that matter. Please take care of our boy! Again, Triple S, please try to maintain calm in these instances. We know how excited we get when the boys are inches away from us, we've been there, and we know how it feels. But part of being a fan is to give a little bit of space to our idols. A little safe distance will do. Let's not suffocate them and scare them, and PUSH them! Let's all learn the etiquette of being a fangirl!

2011-04-20T22:46:00.003+08:00

Group SS501's lead vocalist Heo Youngsaeng has been admitted into the hospital because of a hand fracture.

Heo Youngsaeng’s first solo album was slated for release on this upcoming 28th, and while he was practising his title track’s choreography on the 19th in the dance room, he suddenly injured the back of his hands and was admitted into the hospital soon after.

After diagnosis, it was known that it’d take about 4~5 weeks for his hand fracture and rusture of ligaments to recover.

Right now, Heo Youngsaeng is in the hospital and is awaiting for a more detailed diagnosis result. Because of this, date of his album release and all other broadcast schedules have to be postponed.

It was known that he is very much disturbed mentally that he can’t keep to his promise for his fans amidst such a situation right now.

On the other hand, date to when his solo album will be released is undergoing adjustments at the moment.

While practising for his choreography, Young Saeng had hurt his hands, and until he recovers from that, all of his schedules and album have decided to be postponed.

All of you guys have been eagerly awaiting for him, and for the fact that we have decided for a delay is because Young Saeng health is of utmost priority more than anything.
