JYJ´s and HoMin´s Message to Japanese fans

[shuumi-miss.livejournal.com]

Written Message:

Hello. This is JYJ.

Jaejoong: I am not sure how to begin. Due to an unexpected disaster, many in Japan are deep in sorrow and fear, and we know that among them are our dear fans, and our hearts very much ache. We pray for those people who passed away due to the earthquake on Friday and for the safety of those who are still missing.

Yoochun: We were moved by Japan’s calm response in the face of the terror of the disaster. We believe that the current disaster is not only the sadness of Japan but of all humankind. If we all have hope and courage, we believe that the clouds will soon disappear and the sun will shine through again.

Junsu: On the day of the earthquake, being in Tokyo, I was extremely shocked. Therefore, I am worried about the safety of the missing Japanese people including the Korean-Japanese. We are checking the bulletins of the press and are keeping watch (in trepidation). Please take heart despite the hardship. We wish that we will gather strength (with each other). We, JYJ, will share in this.

We hope to meet with the Japanese fans soon. We wish to meet you all. And, we love you.

Transcript of the Video Message:

Hello. This is JYJ.

We are not sure how to begin our words.

We heard that recently an unexpected large earthquake in Japan harmed many people in Japan. At this, our hearts very much ache and are in sorrow.

In Japan, there were our dear friends and many people who, for a very long time, supported us and loved us. Our hearts hurt (thinking about this).

We JYJ will pray in our place that things will steady as soon as possible so that everyone in Japan will safely be okay. Everyone, please take heart.

We received heartfelt words from Tohoshinki.

We were very surprised to hear about the news of the earthquake and tsunami.
And, we are worried if the fans and our acquaintance in Japan are safe.
We truly hope from the bottom of our heart that everybody is safe.
The damage is great, and we cannot image how painful it is to you.
We pray that you will be able to pull through together as one.

TTOTT I love these boys.

However that phone call going on in the background of JYJs video....I want to side-eye that person so hard. WTF.

[wox666.livejournal.com]

I'm sad for the Japanese people.

[sundrunk.livejournal.com]

oh man that cell phone vibration :\ and you can hear them whispering .. DISTRACTING

[geonitacka.livejournal.com]

YEAH! I was like "WTF Why you didn't put the phones on silents dumb betches >:("

*sigh*

[decodexx.livejournal.com]

They look so good in that video.
But Japan </3

[vanilla-09.livejournal.com]

Ugh, this is seriously awful. The situation in Japan that is.

[inudela.livejournal.com]

i came across so many people who had such heartless opinions about this disaster. the ugly side of humanity really is ugly.

i kinda wish all 3 of them said something, but nevertheless ♥

[xxmannequin.livejournal.com]

Me too.
Everything being posted on fb and twitter - I can't believe such words.
Just today, I got so pissed by my professor.She was using black humor to refer to the situation in Japan. I couldn't believe it.:/

[inudela.livejournal.com]

ikr. i'm not usually bothered by trolly comments, but some things you just do not joke about, especially so soon after a tragedy like this .__.

[lightframes.livejournal.com]

I don't get why your professor would take the risk of making jokes. How did she know there wasn't someone in your class that has family or friends who were affected by the earthquake? How did the class react?

[xxmannequin.livejournal.com]

she acts as a cold hearted bitch all the time.
I live in Europe.
In a country you'll hardly see anyone negroid/mongoloid.
She was laughing by herself.No one sad anything.
I regret not responding to the joke , but since our school is all sort of crazy I couldn't take up the risk.:/

[decodexx.livejournal.com]

.....

omg your teacher. ):

[lovejae23.livejournal.com]

my korean friend said "whatever, who cares about japan anyways"


it is just so disgusting.

[tribuo-venerati.livejournal.com]

Okay, ngl, my first thought when I played the video is that they all look really good and Junsu's haircut/style is a major upgrade.

In all seriousness though, the whole scope and devastation of the earthquake and tsunami in Japan is really just.....devastating.

[raiknii.livejournal.com]

Okay, this is a serious question about how surprised everyone was about the earthquake. Don't they have ways to detect earthquakes now? Especially one this big? Or am I thinking of some other kind of natural disaster?

[kaesshi.livejournal.com]

As far as I know, there is no way to pinpoint when an earthquake is going to occur. I live in an area prone to earthquakes too, and I just know the pressure's constantly building up and soon there'll be an earthquake to relieve this pressure. It was definitely surprising. There are ways to predict tsunamis if I'm not mistaken. You can off the earthquake and calculate how long it'll take until the waves hit.

[chinchuu.livejournal.com]

At this point in time, technology is still incapable of predicting earthquakes. Yes, Japan is situated in one of the most highly earthquake active zones, but a big one of this magnitude doesn't occur that often. In earthquake active areas, scientists have a theory that big ones usually occur every 50 or 100 years, but it's still impossible to pinpoint when they will come. But this 9.0 earthquake isn't what caused most of the destruction in Japan, it was the tsunami. Tsunamis come in at a very fast speed and the epicentre of this earthquake was very close to land, so there wasn't that much time for people to flee.

[raiknii.livejournal.com]

I see, I see! Thanks for the explanation!

[-ochre.livejournal.com]

To be fair, Japan didn't suffer much from the earthquake. Their architectural structures, earthquake technology and policies really helped them. But it was the tsunami from the earthquake that they could do nothing about that caused much of the damage.

[aj-123.livejournal.com]

Not surprised about the earthquake part but what I am surprised at was the tsunami(s) that occured after. I pray for Japan.

[thsk.livejournal.com]

I think this is the first time I've ever seen Jaejoong have a hard time trying to say something. They look so devastated.

[geonitacka.livejournal.com]

Yeah...I wonder if they knew someone who got killed or injuried or haven't heard from people....or maybe since they were there they saw stuff....=(

[line-genrou.livejournal.com]

Only Junsu was there when the earthquake happened,but he's back in Korea now.
But yeah,they have a lot of friends there.

[geonitacka.livejournal.com]

same difference. xP

But yeah, I'm sure they have a lot of connections.

[inori88.livejournal.com]

Jaejoong has a lot of friends in Japan...

[geonitacka.livejournal.com]

D: I can imagine. I do too so I was feeling the same way until I heard back from everyone.....

[geonitacka.livejournal.com]

translation's off....just sayin.

[oldwillow-brook.livejournal.com]

For the JYJ one or the Homin one? :)

[geonitacka.livejournal.com]

jyj. It's like a summary rather than a translation...like it's not wrong it's just not "exact" to the T. So not really a big deal???

[oldwillow-brook.livejournal.com]

Just interesting. :D

Considering if you don't know the language they could be saying something completely different and we would have no idea unless someone told us :)

[geonitacka.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I always wonder that with subs of some languages etc. LOL
it's just the problem with any translation.

[line-genrou.livejournal.com]

JaeJoong looked like he was about cry =/

[yuukihitohira.livejournal.com]

:( oh geeze ♥ Jaejoong's voice is just killing me.

Nice to see them all acknowledging the situation and the kindness of all the celebrities lately is really heart-warming, considering all the shitty reaction/opinions that some people have been having :|

[inori88.livejournal.com]

the video... jaejoong looks relly, trully sad

And the situation in Japan is so heart breaking. Even after donating I feel I have done nothing...

[maple88.livejournal.com]

Even after donating I feel I have done nothing...
this.
I feel like as a university student, I can't really give much, and I feel like it won't make a difference. I wish I could go with the Red Cross or something and volunteer, but it's still the middle of the semester and I can't drop everything.
I hate feeling so helpless.

[sumo-mo.livejournal.com]

these boys <3
i hope their words can calm the hearts of those people <3

i'm so sad with all this situation too, it's really unbelievable...

[saintedmal.livejournal.com]

I wanna hug everyone affected by the tragedy. It's heartbreaking for anyone and everyone who has to go through this hardship.

[tothechangmin.livejournal.com]

): i was watching raw footage on youtube last night and just ): you see the waves coming in, the houses and cars being washed away, and you realise that there are people in there being washed away as well )))):

[chloe1910.livejournal.com]

I pray that no more disaster will strike Japan. It's really heart-warming to see non-Japanese artists (especially JYJ, Homin, Kara, Yong-sama and others) are pouring in donations and voicing their concerns and distress over what's happening in Japan.

[afruz.livejournal.com]

Yoochun's message reads like the elder brother's encouraging words: You can do it! You are not alone in it.

[callmeliyah.livejournal.com]

;_; Jaejoong sounds so sad and sincere ;_; Sweet boys. >_
