[news] Kim Hyun Joong: 'He didn't even wipe his hand ONCE'

K-pop star Kim Hyun Joong shook hands with and high-fived every one of the 3,000-strong crowd of mainly women who had gathered at his fan-meet at the Singapore Indoor Stadium last night.

No surprise then, that in the one hour and 15 minutes that it took for him to complete his unenviable feat, he was seen supporting himself with his other hand on the table.

At times, he was seen massaging his chest with his free hand, his face showing signs of weariness. Nevertheless, he continued to smile and greet every fan.

Before the gruelling session, Kim had performed for two hours, singing hits like Kiss Kiss and I'm Your Man, and playing games with the audience.

A fan was heard remarking, almost out of pity for Kim, that not once did he wipe his hand even when it was a given that he must have touched plenty of “disgusting, clammy palms”.

[news] Kim Hyun Joong's Superstitions, Bling, and Chinese chess

Korean actor-singer Kim Hyun Joong surprised fans when he relayed his desire to high-five all 3,000 concertgoers at his first Asia Fan Meeting in Singapore held last night. It was icing on the cake for everyone present when he selflessly continued that act of generosity and topped it up by presenting all attendees with a U:ZOOSIN t-shirt and brooch.

Anything for the fans, he says, and we're not even counting the dollars and cents (read: sense) involved in this exchange...

The "luckiest guy on earth" to be doing what he's doing right now, Hyun Joong's recent two showcases in Yokohama, Japan, sold out in mere minutes; tickets were balloted to pick 20,000 lucky concertgoers out of 60,000 applicants.

Rating his own performance thus far, the humble chap says he still has "a long way to go" to reach out to a global audience and "if there are 100 steps towards reaching my goal, I feel that I might be at my 10th step so far."

For someone whose mini-albums are accompanied by complicated dance choreography that gets "increasingly challenging" with each album, the 25-year-old assures he'll be dancing for "as long as my bones are still intact". Fans might even get to see him flaunt his guitar skills in future promotions and albums since he used to be a bass guitarist in school.

This charismatic poster boy of Korean beauty goods and preppy threads is as random as random gets. With a title album titled 'Lucky Guy', Hyun Joong shared a lesser-known tidbit about himself at his interview with xinmsn at Fairmont Hotel Singapore, and spoke about his superstitious habits.

After reviewing through the many scenarios for about two years after Playful Kiss, we are here to confirm that the news article that reports about Hyun Joong being in the drama ‘City Conquest’ is true.

Kim Hyun Joong’s next work will be ‘City Conquest’, which consists of a combination of humanism, action and noir, and he will be performing the role of grown-up ‘Baek Mi Reu’, who resented the father who left his mother and him when he was a child.

A content which contains a desire for revenge and society’s evils that drives his family to destruction.

In the script, Kim Hyun Joong is a wild man who have no parents and live through a harsh life of hardships as well as a man who becomes weak in the face of love

On April 14th, in-depth coverage of actor-singer Kim Hyunjoong was broadcasted on MBC's "K-POP Star Shakes the World."

Kim Hyunjoong spoke on the things he did as a teenager that disappointed his parents, his desire for a career in music, and his dreams of becoming a world star.

The bigger the dream, the more it seems I'm getting closer to it."

A representative from his agency stated, "Kim Hyunjoong is very fastidious in taking control of himself, and his mind control is excellent in any kind of situation. He's extremely smart and he works harder than anyone else."

[vids/trans] Kim Hyun Joong on MBC's ‘K-Pop Stars Captivating the World’

KHJ said it doesn't matter if he's a good player (a burden to the good players) to the Japanese soccer team, but what matters whether the team wins or not. Jokingly that is :P


He's talking about his depression like he couldn't sleep at night, couldn't able to return home on Chuseok, lots of thinking, and that's why he think he got depression.


The CEO commented how HyunJoong was so committed to the album production, giving his ideas that even the team weren't able to provide.


Kim Changrok (the producer for most of KHJ's songs) commented how he put so much hardwork to song recordings, like a robot.


Even Artmatic's choreographer commented how he continue to practice the dance moves

The previous night, HJ checked the Q-sheets again and again for the next day's concert at Arena Hall. HJ went one step further as a solo artist.



HJ said some of the opponent team are the former Japanese national team, and winning or losing a match was not his concern..



HJ was depressed in JP in 2007, cuz they(SS501) didn't have much activities at that time in JP.



it was ostrich he was mimicked LOL



KE CEO Mr. Yang said KHJ's clever and had ideas for album producing. HJ made great efforts till he would be able to do it.



When HJ had a hard time, JJ left a letter at his bed side and he still keeps the letter



KHJ respects a lot of artists and actors but won't have any role model. HJ thinks he has to be KHJ himself, not someone else.

[news] Kim Hyun Joong on ‘K-Pop Stars Captivating the World’

Singer and actor Kim Hyun Joong will be sharing his hidden passions through an MBC special titled ‘K-Pop Stars Captivating the World‘.

The program will be following top K-Pop stars like Kim Hyun Joong, CNBLUE, B2ST, and IU and go through a full 24 hour day with them to see just what is behind the scenes, in an effort to better determine whether the Hallyu wave can continue to grow all over the world or eventually run stagnant.

The focus will be on Kim Hyun Joong, especially since he’s created a Hallyu empire with just his name. One Japanese critic had stated, “In 2012, the direction of K-Pop will change to focus on solo artists, and Kim Hyun Joong is expected to stand as leader of that change. All eyes are on him.”

‘K-Pop Stars Captivating the World’ will give a glimpse into his international activities and the preparation he undergoes for his concert at the Yokohama Arena.

The program airs on April 14th.
