-The way Changmin's voice sounds exactly just like it did back then is so fascinating.

-I don't know how to express it in words, but the highlight of 'Mirotic' is definitely Changmin's piercing high notes. That's why you can leave out Changmin's high notes from this song...ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ That's what makes this song is authentic

-I want to see them perform other songs too

-Whoa... I have never had an interest in TVXQ, I still don't. But they're so f*cking talented.

-Whoa... Both of them nailed this live performance. It's crazy.

-Whoa... Max Changminㅜㅜㅜ As expected

-Max Changmin's high notes in this song are a mustㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-'Mirotic' is all about Max Changmin's high notesㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Whoa... The way he hits those high notes with a smile is so f*cking cool.

-Changmin's high notes are so good...

-Why are they performing this song...? At an award show in 2024...?

-The quality is so low but they still look handsome...

-I don't know why, but to me, TVXQ is all about Changmin's voice. I seriously don't know why.

-He hits those high notes so effortlesslyㅋㅋ

-My blood is responding to this.

-Why does Changmin Oppa not age... He still looks exactly the way I remember he used to look back then.

Catering

Indoor and outdoor decorations

Claw machine that draws random photocards

Choosing between blonde vs black-haired Rosé, post-it messages, mini-games, etc

Outdoor photo booths

Photo zone, phone booth that features Rosé's voice

Gifts that each include a bracelet, t-shirt, and eco-bag

Analog cameras as gifts

 

Apparently, Rosé personally chose the bracelet colors, and as a little TMI, she wanted them to be made of thread, so they were switched to thread braceletsㅜㅜㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅠㅠㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ 

The way she gives out analog cameras so that fans can capture the moment, draw random photocards from the claw machine, and sets up a phone booth so that she can share what she wants to say to fans... This shows how much Rosé has grown... She did it allㅠㅠ She even personally chose the bracelet colors to be red and white, and requested the bracelet to be made of thread. I'm so touched😭😭 

She doesn't want the listening party to feel too formal(?), so she wasn't going to use chairs at first. But since it's her first listening party, she prepared all of this🥺 Chaeyoung meticulously prepared everything for today's listening party~..🥺 

Based on the fans' reviews, it seems like this listening party had so much of Rosé's touch.

She even brought Hank, her dog, to the event

She let the fans listen to her new song that's coming out on December 6 and also shared some behind-the-scenes stories.

She even did a sing-along of APT. with fansㅋㅋ

+Adding this since this post made it to the trending list:

The event was held via a lottery for album buyers, with 40 attendees per session (2 PM and 5 PM).

I've added photos to the main post, so please don’t spam the comments with too many picturesㅠㅠ

theqoo

-Crazy... Invite me too...

-The aesthetic is insane... I'm so jealousㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ

-Whoa... Isn't this crazy??ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ A listening party for fans...

-This is amazing

-I've never seen a listening party done this extravagantly. The aesthetic is insane... Look at how the shirts have tags... Whoa

-The aesthetic is insane... I have never seen a listening party like this before.

-Whoa... I saw some pictures of the indoor decors earlier, and there's so much more to it. It looks like she put a lot of thoughts into this event.

-I'm so jealous... Rosé is the best.

-I'm really jealous.

-I wanna go tooㅠㅠ

-I wanna sing along too...

-So pretty... I'm so jealous...

-Whoa... She holds this event for fans???ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ

-I'm jealous that they get to hear Rosé's song before it's released... And also the fact that they got to see Hank...

-Whoa... This is legendary...

-Whoa... This will be a really beautiful memory...

-If each session only consists of 40 fans, it's not too many or too few. It's just the right amount to enjoy the party.

-Whoa... So freaking prettyㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ

-Is this in Korea? So amazing...

-I think I'm gonna go crazy from jealousy.

Rosé's mind-blowing listening party today

Newsen | Journalist Kim Myungmi

https://m.entertain.naver.com/now/article/609/0000921171

Singer and musical actor Kim Junsu (Xia Junsu), who is also active as JX, has revealed that he was blackmailed for 840 M KRW by a female BJ from AfreecaTV, identified as A. He made a direct statement to his fans on November 15.

Kim Junsu said through a fan communication app, Fromm, "Guys~~ I'm so sorry for shocking you with articles like these. However, I've been harassed for 5 years. I just couldn't take it anymore. So I made up my mind. Given how serious the crime was, she has been arrested and is currently going through a detention review. I know I should've acted sooner, but I'm also well aware that this kind of article isn't good for us. Still, I can't help but wonder if those were the best headlines the journalists could come up with."

He continued, "But I'm confident. I didn't do anything wrong and this all happened 5 years ago. After that, I started to realize that this is my mistake and decided not to meet people anymore. We can only figure out people's true intentions once it all blows up. So, five years ago, I made a vow to only meet people for business purposes. That’s right. I’ve played golf only with close people or for business, and I’ve never gone to any casual meetups like drinking parties or clubs."

Kim Junsu added, "I’m okay~ I’m just sorry to you all. I wanted to share only good news with you, I'm so sorry I couldn't. But after hearing that there were more than 6 other victims besides me, I couldn't hold back any longer. When I say I'm gonna do it, I'm really gonna do it," as he apologized to his fans.

theqoo

-Uh... Why did you give her 800 M KRW then?

-'But I'm confident'ㅋ

-I think it's better for him to stay quiet

-The man who is confident after getting blackmailed for 800 M KRW.

-Why did he give her 800 M KRW then? Did he want to help a BJ doing drugs?

-Isn't he the victim here? Why are people mocking him? Is there more to the story?

-I feel like I'm gonna f*cking die from the secondhand embarrassment. How thick-skinned do you have to be to act like that?

-ㅋㅋIf you're so confident, why did you get blackmailed for 800 M KRW? Are you a little bit stupid...?

-I heard that he was still transferring her money until last month. It's fascinating how he sounds so confident.

-He should've reported her immediately when he got blackmailed... The way he wrote those messages makes it sounds like he was the one who reported her. I thought this case was discovered when that woman was being investigated for another case?

-I... really didn't expect him to be this confidentㅋㅋ

-Confident Junsuㅋㅋ

Kim Junsu got blackmailed over 800 M KRW: "I did nothing wrong, that female BJ pretended to be a nail artist" ... Defends himself in front of fans

YTN | Journalist Choi Boran

https://m.entertain.naver.com/article/052/0002114293

YTN Star managed to contact two individuals who had worked as rap teachers for trainees and artists under Core Contents Media during T-ARA's active years.

Lee Joohyo, who was in charge of training the company's singers between 2010 and 2013, stated, "It is true that Hwayoung was bullied." She also added that she had seen messages from T-ARA's group chats at the time.

Lee said "I've seen the messages in T-ARA members' group chat. Before a performance in Japan, Hwayoung injured her leg. She couldn't walk properly because her leg was swollen. Hwayoung apologized to the members for not being able to join the performance. Normally, people will respond, 'Get well soon,' or 'Don't worry.' Instead, all the members simply sent 'ㅋㅋㅋㅋ'. That was really shocking."

Lee continued, "As widely known, the members also posted similar tweets on Twitter, saying things like 'The difference of will,' and 'Give an applause to the genius,' clearly targeting one person (Hwayoung). Bullying isn't always physical. Hwayoung struggled greatly due to the members' bullying and even said that she wanted to quit T-ARA."

Additionally, Lee revealed, "Hwayoung referred to the members as the 'T-ARA girls' even after she debuted, which shows that she didn't feel like she belonged to the group."

What was the cause of the conflict within the group? Lee speculated, "It seemed like the original members were unhappy with a new member coming in. It's understandable, they might think newcomers are gaining rewards without effort. I don't want to justify their actions, but they were all very young. There are many idols who pick sides and fight." Lee also mentioned, "No one wanted to share a room with Hwayoung, so she stayed in the living room. The company knew about this, they should have intervened."

Tarae, another trainer who worked with Core Contents Media from 2010 to 2011, added, "I didn't witness the incidents directly, but Hwayoung often said that she was having a hard time and the members seemed to keep things under the rug. I thought it was weird. At the beginning of her debut, it was all fine. But her demeanor worsened over time."

Tarae recalled, "Idols have fights, so I thought T-ARA had a similar situation. I didn't know it was that bad. One day, Hwayoung came with a red cheek. When I asked her about it, she didn't explain and just brushed it off. However, anyone could tell she'd been hit. So I said, 'It looks like you got hit,' and she eventually admitted, 'OO hit me.' That was one of the visible signs of bullying."

Regarding Hwayoung's leg injury that sparked controversy, Tarae said, "I remember Hwayoung apologizing to the members and asking to perform despite being injured, but she was misunderstood. Hwayoung that I know is not a person who wouldn't perform just because she was hurt. Because of her ambition, it would only make her want to perform even more. She is not the type of person who would fake an injury to avoid performing."

Tarae noted, "At first, only insiders knew about the bullying. But after the rumors became known to the public, claims of Hwayoung mistreating a stylist, etc suddenly emerged. I asked Hwayoung about it, and she denied those accusations and felt wronged." Tarae added, "In the end, the company was never on Hwayoung's side. It would be the end for T-ARA if the company was on Hwayoung's side. Bullying is a serious issue. It was easier for the company to frame Hwayoung as the perpetrator since it would only cost them one person."

We have tried to obtain a statement from Kim Kwangsoo, the CEO of T-ARA's former agency. However, he did not respond.

theqoo

-I remember Tarae. That person also testified back then.

-Wow... This whole article is very shocking.

-The whole company bullied such a young girl. Even as an outsider, I feel disgusted.

-T-ARA members are so mean

-No matter how much you hate someone, if they get hurt, you'd usually feel sympathy first. But they just laughed?? Not to mention that except for Jiyeon, they're all around 5 years older than Hwayoung...

-Hwayoung apologized for getting hurt and they all just laughed at her. They must be out of their mindsㅋㅋ

-I hope more evidence comes out. Will those people who refuse to believe still not believe?

-They're all doing interviews and even revealing their own names...ㅠ

-She slept in the living room. Whoaㅋㅋㅋ Hwayoung has been enduring it all without saying anything for so long...

-I can't believe she really got slapped on the cheek....

-They should've at least been thankful to Hwayoung since she never said anything. Instead, they tried to turn the victim into the perpetrator. These bastards...

-The people on Hwayoung's side are all coming forward and doing interviews. Yeah, because they don't have anything to hide.

-If this is true, they're really cruel...

-Crazy... This is shocking...

T-ARA's reaction in the group chat when Hwayoung injured her leg ... Shocking
