Korean to English translation by Ode 



Group SS501's leader Kim Hyun Joong revealed his stand to his team's disbandment after his recruitment into new agency.

On 26th afternoon at 2pm at Seoul kangnam-gu, Nonhyundong's Imperial Palace hotel, MBC new drama 'Playful Kiss' held its press conference. When asked about SS501's disbandment, Kim Hyun Joong expressed "Never once did I mention about my moving out of SS501", mentioning his stand to this disbandment talk.

He added, "None of our members mentioned anything about disbandment at all, it was the press media who kept making many talks like this. I don't think of it as 'because we cannot do activities for now' and then feel sad. It's not like that".

"Though my moving into Keyeast will be mainly focused on acting, but we had compromised on my status as singer too. Around next year, I will be showing my side as a singer". However, if he is to prepare in his new agency, then he will become a solo singer, and if so, carrying out activities as SS501 will seem quite translucent at that.....

Idol group SS501 member Kim Hyun Joong who moved out of DSP Entertainment and went into Bae Yong Jun's agency Keyeast showed his unchanged affection for singing. He seems like he's tending more towards the side as an actor now than a singer. However, his affection for singing remains unchanged. "SS501 is not disbanding","I will be making my solo debut next year". (solo debut = albums with his name) (its a normal sight in showbiz now..)


----


Kim Hyun Joong who recently moved into Bae Yong Jun's agency Keyeast expressed, "Will be venturing as an actor more for this year, will rest for a little as a singer. We want to do really well, so that's why we decided to take on a drama like this at once".

He also revealed his thoughts about first meeting Bae Yong Jun,
"Yong Jun hyung appeared in the car, my first feeling of him was 'what a Zeus', the first moment I saw him, I remembered about 'Yon Sama' immediately, because we shared quite a few words with each other, I recalled that he's a human. He's like a close brother next-door kind", attracting attention with his words. With regards to talks about him being very similar to Bae Yong Jun,"Because only our photographs looked similar".

His good friend 
Micky Yoochun who will be starring in his own SBS drama 'Sungkyunkwan scandal' as well, HyunJoong expressed, "Yeah but because we are not competing on the same day, he is on Mon-Tues, I'm on Wed-Thurs. I feel relieved", "It's Yoochun's first work, so it's very important to him, and for me, because it's my 2nd work, it's very important to me too, if our dramas were to air on the same day, I think we won't be seeing each other soon in these few years as we would have carried out a war of nerves", laughing to his statement.

Regarding his kiss scenes with Jung Somin,
 "There were few times we don't look at each other and without giving prior notice, we just kissed. It was very awkward, but probably because of that, the effect came out well and natural. So literally, a naughty kiss shows itself, just like the drama title".

He also changed agency company, 
"I don't feel sad that I cannot do activities as SS501 now. The five of us didn't mention any once about any official disbandment at all", leaving some mystery to his words.

Talking about his upcoming plans,
 "Upcoming December in Tokyo Dome, there will be an event. I will also be preparing as a solo singer next year, right now, about 5% of it is completed".

"Though it's not exactly finalized, I'm indeed preparing as a singer. Whether it'll be with my group or as solo, I don't know. But according to the situation now, I'm preparing for my album with the thought as solo".

Talking about disbandment of SS501, he said, 
"Nothing's decided. People say SS501 will disband. People say that, but nothing was ever said out of our mouths. Then what will happen if SS501 comes out with album? Let's just wait and see".

He also said, 
"When I first received invitation for this drama, I knew I was gonna have to work harder to portray this high school student role, because I will to get affirmation from everyone, that's why I took it on".



---


Actor Kim Hyun Joong revealed that he "felt like he's going back to those high school days" thanks to Playful Kiss drama, thus attracting attention.
"My character has an an IQ higher than 200 and never fails to get Number 1 in school. There are many scenes where he has to speak many profound stuff, in order for me to act out as naturally as possible, I had been working hard".

Because of that, he has been memorizing many mathematical formulas and is just like a model student, and in reality, he's also really working hard like a real student.

Kim Hyun Joong said, 
"During my high school days, I didn't do well and wanted to become a singer, only went playing, but now thanks to this drama, I can study. The kind of feeling returning as a student is back".



---


Kim Hyun joong who's moved to Bae Yong Joon's agency recently expressed, "No matter how I viewed, it just became that way. In fact, though there were many invitations coming from many places, besides Keyeast, I haven't really been in contact with them".
"Though Bae Yong Jun is my boss, but privately I call him Hyung. I meet up with Yong Jun hyung about 2~3 times per week, and we talk comfortably about daily lives and work".
"Just like with any other person, Yong Jun hyung talks about women and drinks while we talk as well. Like for this time's shooting too, Hyung said he will definitely visit my shooting location once, but I don't know when it will be", expressing laughter.
"Yong Jun hyung has been consistently giving me advice, looking at hyung's way of dealing with life, I felt that I've gotta learn from him... I hope to be able to manage myself well and steady enough...", showing his respect for him.

---
Jung Somin, "It was almost at the final stage that I incidentally saw the auditions. When I finished my shooting at hand that time, it was almost midnight. So PD nim gave me another chance, which I was very grateful for". "When I'm tired, my expressions tend to be more sluggish (?). Thus I went for the auditions looking rather restless, I guess that was why PD nim liked it, and so I'm standing right here", laughing shyly.
"My role Hani is a very bright and lively and also extremely positive minded character. It was so sudden that I had to take up such a big role and is anxious, but I will not disappoint. Please show me much love and concern".

Kim Hyun Joong added to his partner,
"To be honest, when I first saw Jung Somin, I didn't know she was an actress. She was so much different from herself in Bad Guy. I'm not joking but she's really cute", showing her praise.

---

Kim Hyun Joong responded to question asked of
 "Do you feel sad that you cannot do SS501 activities?". His answer was, "There's nothing to be sad that I cannot do SS501 activities. No such thing as - we're unable to do it. We did not even mention any once about official disbandment", "There are so many guesses and talks about my leaving of the group. But it will do if I just avoid such talks. It's expected that it will surface again, isnt it", expressing his thoughts on SS501.

Kim Hyun Joong revealed his ideal type as the "Push-and-pull type"of girl (push-and-pull behaviour skilfully while in love)

On 26th's press conference at 2PM, he was asked the question of his ideal type,
 "I like the kind of girl who could be like my friend and also able to control me""I don't like those who are very arrogant, I prefer one like Oh Hani who's quite pure and silly in the drama, yet who could inspire and control (push and pull) me skillfully enough".

Talking about his partner Jung Somin, 
"To be honest, we're not very close. But when we were doing the drama together, we somehow became close, but she's one who has the eight-colored charm with her", arousing laughters.

Jung somin also said,
 "At first, we were both quite stranger to each other, so it was quite awkward. But as time went by, he seemed like a gagman, though it may seem weird at times, we often burst into laughters at times. Was quite interesting".

Playful Kiss will be on par against SBS 'My girlfriend is a Gumiho' with Lee Seunggi and Shin Minah. To that, he said,
 "The ratings is not something I can control. If it's interesting, they will watch. If it's not, they won't watch. But because Playful Kiss is an interesting drama, so I think it will exceed 20% on its first broadcast, and I believe in that", showing his confidence.

Will drama ‘Mischievous Kiss’ be able to recreate ‘Boys over Flowers’ syndrome?

‘Mischievous Kiss’ is being called the ‘similar drama’ with ‘Boys Over Flowers’ which gained huge popularity in Korea last year, and has been compared to it in many aspects.

MBC new Wed-Thu drama ‘Mischievous Kiss’ originated from a same-titled comic. Original comic sold 27million copies in Japan itself and was made into animation and TV drama in Japan and Taiwan, causing a syndrome in 13 countries in Asia where it was aired.

Like ‘Boys Over Flowers’ which was made into drama in Korea after Japan and Taiwan, and was very well received, ‘Mischievous Kiss’ is also the third to produce, and gaining attention to see if it will be able to gain huge popularity in Asia.

A lot of attention was gain especially that this is produced by the producers of ‘Boys Over Flowers’ Group Eight, and the rising Hallyu star of the next generation, Kim HyunJoong who also acted in ‘Boys Over Flowers’, to act as the male lead in this drama.

Group Eight representative Song ByungJoon said “We are worried as it is tough competition. I believe that people who has crush on someone or anyone who has memories of loving another, can relate well. Please look forward to this beautiful drama.”

Director Hwang InRoi, who is the director for ‘Mischievous Kiss’ after ‘Goong’ and ‘Goong 2’, increased the anticipation for the drama with touching scenes and delicate touch in the teaser video shown today.

Director Hwang InRoi revealed his intention for the drama “Basically, we will try to keep all the good points from the originating comic and try to have the affectionate feelings in ‘Mischievous Kiss’. Even though we did some changes as such, we are going to have a happy ending which most people look forward to for an end. I am trying hard to express the feelings of young people.”

Director Hwang added his anticipations about the actors/actress, “We are able to keep the feelings of the comic, I think Kim HyunJoong and Jung SoMin are able to keep to my expectations. Both of them are rookie actor/actress, though they sometimes have troubles expressing themselves in front of the camera, I think it will make it more suitable for this drama.

‘Mischievous Kiss’, by Kim HyunJoong, Jung SoMin, Lee TaeSung, Lee ShiYoung, etc, will start on 1-Sep after ‘Road Number One’.

To see Kim HyunJoong... 350 local and overseas media crowded at ‘Mischievous Kiss’ Production Press Conference

As much as the heated news coverage... Fan clubs also organized their supporters

“Let’s catch hold of Kim HyunJoong!”

Being called as post Yon-sama, it is not uncommon to gain the interest from local and overseas regarding actor Kim HyunJoong from group SS501.

Kim HyunJoong attended to MBC new Wed-Thu drama ‘Mischievous Kiss’ production press conference held on 26-Aug afternoon at Imperial Palace Hotel at NonHyun-dong, GangNam-gu, Seoul. About 350 media from local and overseas requested to attend and cover (news) for the press conference on this day.

Production company Group Eight, who oversees the press conference, said “We understand that about 350 local and overseas media have requested to attend ’Mischievous Kiss’ press conference. This is about the same level as the previous production ‘Boys Over Flowers’ and ‘Goong’ press conference, where overseas ticket power DongBangShinGi’s member Uknow Yunho acted in.”

Already predicted was the heated interest about Kim HyunJoong. After gaining success beyond expectations in ‘Boys Over Flowers’ last year, he strengthens his position as a singer and of course, as an actor, making a firm stand as the Hallyu star of the next generation. Furthermore, as ‘Mischievous Kiss’ is his first production after joining Key East, company where Hallyu star Bae YongJoon is a major shareholder of, it seems to have created even more interest in Japan and overseas.

Meanwhile, during the press conference, Kim HyunJoong’s fans also organized their supporters to be volunteers. Production company hinted “The fan club spontaneously prepared gifts for Kim HyunJoong and the reporters. They prepared Kim HyunJoong’s photo album and large ice sculpture wishing for the success for the drama. They spontaneously prepared light refreshments and some gifts for the reporters.”

Article-Mkiss Press Con


Please show much love to Jangnanseureon kiss~~~~

Singer and actor Kim Hyun Joong has made his comeback with the perfect and adamant guy so different from 'Boys over Flowers' Yun Jihoo.

On the 26th afternoon at 2pm at Seoul, Kangnam-gu, Nonhyun-dong Imperial Palace hotel, MBC new Wed-Thurs drama 'Playful Kiss' press conference was held. Casts Kim Hyun Joong, Jung SoMin, Lee Taesung, Jung Hye Young, Lee Si Young attended the press conference. Kim Hyun Joong expressed on the press conference "Baek Seungjo is the combination of Goo JunPyo and Yun Jihoo".

In the drama, he plays Baek Seungjo, the genius flower boy who possesses the indifferent and aloof charm, and is the romance target of all female students whilst also posing as a threat for male students.

When he introduces his character Baek Seung Jo, "He's like boF's Yun Jihoo + Goo Junpyo. Though he's a tough and annoyable person, but inside him there's this inability to express what he wants to say, and that point is quite similar to Goo Junpyo".

With regards to portraying his character, "To be honest I'm someone who doesn't have many flexible sides, in order to portray this tough guy, even though I managed to be become tough, it ended up that I had became tougher 
(behaviour set wise)...I felt stressed in the beginning. Though I became tough (personality), still, towards the people around me, I'm affectionate as usual", rousing chuckles of nostrils.

In order to digest his character, "I've been working hard in trying to keep to the right pace/feeling, yet not losing that tough and rough tendency he has towards people. Back in the Yoon Jihoo role, he was very quiet, and if that showed a soft and gentle image, then in this time's role, he will be so very loud and may end up in a state of wretch/neglect in the middle of drama", explaining his role.

On the other hand, it will air after 'Road No.1' on September 1.

~~~~Please show much love to Playful kiss~~~~

Hyun Joong talks about the kiss

Envious....yet excited!!!

Credits to Allkpop


With less than a week left until the MBC drama Playful Kiss airs, further teases continue to build with a press conference at the Seoul Imperial Palace Hotel this afternoon.

Kim Hyun Joong (who will be playing the drama’s leading male role, Baek Seung Jo) expressed his feelings about the kiss scene with his female partner in the drama, Jung So Min (who will be playing the character, Oh Hani):
“I rarely had eye contact with her, and the kiss happened when we were both in a situation where we didn’t have any lines. It was very awkward. But the awkwardness was essential for that scene, which fits perfectly with the storyline. It was a ‘Playful Kiss’.”

Kim Hyun Joong also expressed how he felt about acting as Baek Seung Jo:
“It wasn’t easy acting out the character of a genius, with an IQ of 200.
The script was packed with words that I weren’t familiar with. Because there were several words that I didn’t know, I had to study a lot.”

The drama will make its debut on September 1st through MBC.

Here is the full article

Kim HyunJoong of MBC Wed-Thu Drama ‘Mischievous Kiss’, revealed that the kiss scene with Jung SoMin was awkward.

Kim HyunJoong revealed his thoughts about the kiss scene with Jung SoMin at ‘Mischievous Kiss’ Production Press Conference held on 26-Aug afternoon at Imperial Palace Hotel at NonHyun-dong, Seoul.

Kim HyunJoong said 
“I have only seen Jung SoMin a few times and had to film the kiss scene during the beginning of the drama filming, it seems like it was awkward. Because of the awkwardness, it seems like the scene was more natural. I didn’t want a mischievous kiss like the title.”

In the drama, Kim HyunJoong acts as Baek SeungJo, a pretty boy genius who will learn 100 things if you just teach him 1 and acquire knowledge 100 times faster than others, he is a cold and dull charismatic guy who is indifferent to all things.

Kim HyunJoong said about his own role 
“He is more of a blunt untactful person than rude, so I expressed with an aggressive attitude. I was quieter and have a soft image when I acted as ‘BOF’ Yoon JiHoo, this time round I have to shout away noisily and have a wreaked image, I think it will be interesting to watch.”

Kim HyunJoong replied to the question on which character he is more similar to between ‘BOF’ JiHoo sunbae and ‘Mischievous Kiss’ Baek SeungJo,
 “Both characters are unrealistic since they are originally comic characters, both characters are different from me. You should be able to see more of bubbly lines/scripts than feeling it is conventional.” He expressed the anticipations.

’Mischievous Kiss’ by Kim HyunJoong, Jung SoMin, Lee TaeSung, etc, will succeed ‘Road No. 1’ and start airing on 1-Sep.
