i getting food with my friend outside of SMtown before it had started, and we suddenly heard screaming inside. we rushed in and they were showing the preview for I AM, and everyone was screaming at the screen whenever someone showed up
It doesn't surprise me that they just plain hate eachother some days, they have spent so much time together even before the split. But in the end they know they only have eachother in the industry if they're are going through horrible times. Seeing the last part of the video almost made me tear up. They have come so far :)
Well I thought about it too and it made me feel kind of sad too. They made it being five members so... And people would be less sensitive if those 3 weren't treated as some sort of taboo
Considering what JYJ is doing in Korea, it is taboo. They're going completely against the mold and grain, yeah, their motives are unclear to some people. What they're doing is common in America, but not in Asia and they're a setting an example that you don't have to deal with such bs. Even with the trainee system.
I saw the whole movie and I think it's an interesting insight into the development and growth of the artists. Some of it was kind of cheesy like the present selves dancing with the past selves but whatever.
What was interesting with HoMin is that you saw and heard their feelings about coming back on stage after a long time and after a huge event happened that pretty much split the fandom to some degree. It was cute hearing Yunho's pre-puberty voice lol. It made me sad that they couldn't show their debut stage like they did with f(x), SNSD, SuJu, and SHINee because it contained footage of JYJ. Seeing SMTOWN NYC from the film's POV and being there are such different feelings.
I wasn't hoping for a lot from SM, and they did what I thought they would do, meaning acting silly and childish. I believe there could have been so many footage during their 5 period. If SM did include the other three and cut it in a way that showed what a great past TVXQ had and what great achievement the duet has now, it will show SM in better light. And besides it will be more interesting for TVXQ fans.
I found it so touching that they showed the rest of SMTown, like BoA and some of the SHINee members just at the side of the stage watching Yunho and Changmin's performance. You can tell it was such a big moment for everyone, not just HoMin.
I kinda wanted them to talk about the split a bit more, maybe even talk about JYJ, even though SM would never have aired something like that i really hoped they would ):
wouldn't be sm without the cheesy bits, but seeing them talk about this and about each other is great. even if we've been told how important to them that day in smtown seoul was )':
eh, and a lot wanting jyj to be "mentioned" is quite laughable, and doesn't have much to do with the boys as much as it is to feed their fannish fantasies. this is about them restarting at two, the least you want to hear about is why they're two.
Agree. I love all 5 DBSK boys, but I certainly did not expect JYJ would be in the movie at all. I mean, the whole point of 2010-2011 was HoMin starting over. It would've been nice to see the pre-debut DBSK but it's out of everyone's control that more than half of the group is gone. Might as well show the footage they DO have of the remaining members and new footage they can show.
I agree, TVXQ is 2 now, it doesn't even matter if JYJ do lose the lawsuit and have to go back to SME, they won't be part of TVXQ, and in all honesty if they lose they will probably just buy out their contracts. Not only that but if SME did include JYJ, a lot of JYJ fans would not be happy about it.
Watched the whole I AM movie thanks to fans who uploaded the whole movie on youtube. There was this part in the movie where they showed the BTS of debut performances of SJ, SNSD and SHINee. I was just sad that they didn't include DBSK's. Maybe that's the only disappointing part in me. But overall, it's a good docu. I especially liked Victoria and her cuteness though. Still, the SM Town interactions in the docu is so lacking. I wanted to see ChangKyuToria being flirty tbh

Besides the 'do not re-upload' rule is not new. You probably can see that there are not many TVXQ videos that are open to everyone.
