EPIC FAIL

KBS 2TV ‘Entertainment Tonight’ made a caption mistake.

Broadcast on December 26th, ‘Entertainment Tonight’ featured Year-end special questionnaire to select stars of “Top News Maker in Year 2009″.

The members of TVXQ who are currently in legal dispute with their label SM Entertainment were selected by votes as the Top 4 of 2009 News Maker. During the vote process, ‘Entertainment Tonight’ put a caption “Junsu, Changmin, and Yoochun are facing lawsuit against their label company” in introducing the case.

As the problem is, TVXQ members who are actually in lawsuit against SM are Micky Yoochun, Xiah Junsu, and Hero Jaejoong. While Choikang Changmin and U-Know Yunho are the rest members who remain in position with SM. This caption mistake is not a problem that can easily be ignored. Moreover, the news wrote ‘Micky Yoochun’ (‘믹’키유천) as ‘Meiky Yoochun’ (‘미’키유천).

TVXQ fans demanded a correction from ‘Entertainment Tonight’ regarding these mistakes. “If it’s me who get it wrong, it may be okay. But how can you have this kind of mistake?” “Names are sensitive issue in this case, and you get it wrong… it’s ridiculous.” “Just quick correct it and make an apology to TVXQ and their fans.” as the fans accused.

HOW DARE THEY MIX UP JAEJOONG AND CHANGMIN WHEN THE PICTURE THEY USE BEHIND THE CAPTION HAS JAEJOONG AND NOT CHANGMIN IN IT

Also, LOL at them spelling Yoochun's name wrong too

This is gonna be another thing that isn't really a big deal but since it's related to JaeChunSu it'll be.

i wonder why netizens get crazy over such little things. i loled, but they demand apologies haha.

on the other hand, media needs to learn the power of spell check and double checking.

[stopthedisco.livejournal.com]

This reminds me of a quote from JaeChunSu's lawyer - he said that he couldn't tell the difference between Jaejoong and Changmin LOL.

[bitter-sweet05.livejournal.com]

...wait, WHAAAAAT? lol that makes no sense. O___O

[qvinx.livejournal.com]

[hoyah.livejournal.com]

didn't jcs's lawyer say that he kept mixing up jaejoong and changmin?

also i am amused by this especially since it's happening after that article about wonder girls in the us, which lists hyuna as the youngest

[callmeliyah.livejournal.com]

orly. i are so fascinated.

[hoyah.livejournal.com]

also i'm not sure that meiky is the right romanization for that typo, lol. if anything, i'd use "mikhi"

[x3sarang.livejournal.com]

Yeah it's just taking away the aspiration, there's not much difference is there? ;_; if I didn't know better I'd write it as Miki and his real name as Mikki LOL

[yuukihitohira.livejournal.com]

ikr? It's just ridiculous XD
