[NEWS]110218 Courts rule that Crebeau was not responsible for JYJ/SM dispute
Cosmetics company Crebeau has been found not guilty for the breakup of TVXQ.
In July of 2009, the three members of JYJ had sued their now former company, SM Entertainment, stating that they were under “slave contracts”. After hearing such accusations, SME released a statement saying that the Crebeau company was to blame, as they were the ones who put such thoughts into their heads.
Upon such remarks, Crebeau fired back, stating that SM was the one that had been hiding the internal problems they had with their own artists, and that the company was purposely misleading the public. Crebeau also proceeded to take legal action against SME due to the defamation of their company.
After reviewing the case this past December, the courts decided that there was an insufficient amount of evidence to prove that Crebeau was guilty, and they therefore closed the case.
Meanwhile, Crebeau has been sponsoring Superstar K contestant Woo Eun Mi and JYJ on their various broadcasting activities.

[TRANS] 110217 TVXQ's Debut Album From 7 Years Ago Sees Sudden Increase In Sales.. Why?
TVXQ's debut album 'Hug', which was released in 2004, is seeing a sudden increase in sales.
According to Hanteo Charts, TVXQ's single 'Hug' ranked second on the real time charts on the 17th of February. This album was released on January, 2004 as TVXQ's debut single and includes the songs 'Hug', 'My Little Princess' and 'Oh Holy Night', a song BoA collaborated in.
How is it that the album, which was released over 7 years ago, has ranked at the top of the charts?
Since their comeback as a duo in January, U-Know Yunho and Choikang Changmin have been actively approaching the public through various programs. As it has been a while since their last period of activity and as TVXQ had mostly been performing overseas before then, they haven't had many opportunities to approach the public through variety programs like they are now.
It seems that TVXQ is planning to take this comeback as a new turning point for the group and hold activities for a long period of time while appearing on TV programs often. They have already appeared on various music programs, 'Running Man', 'Strong Heart' and 'Happy Together'. By doing so, they've shown off charms that the public hadn't seen much of before and have also talked of the scars they've received behind the extravagant facade of a star.
Though TVXQ already have a large fandom, their honest confessions on TV have brought in new fans. These new fans are probably curious of the birth of TVXQ, which would explain why 'Hug' has shot up on the album sales charts recently.
On the same day, the special edition of TVXQ's new album 'Why (Keep Your Head Down)" ranked alongside 'Hug' and proved that TVXQ's popularity has not died down.

[NEWS]110218 Park Yoohwan dishes more on brother Yoochun and reveals his thoughts on acting
Park Yoohwan has started practicing acting with his brother, JYJ's Park Yoochun. For "Sungkyunkwan Scandal," Park Yoochun took acting lessons and is now teaching what he learned to his brother Yoohwan, who will be making an acting debut in MBC's "Shiny Shiny Shining."
Yoohwan stated, "Hyung has a lot of experience being on shows, so he's very confident. On the other hand, I don't even know. I can't do anything because I'm shaking."
Park Yoochun starred in last year's drama, "Sungkyunkwan Scandal," as Lee Sunjoon. The drama received much acclaim and captured the hearts of many female viewers. Yoochun was so into his character that he still used Old Korean speech at home. Yoohwan revealed, "Hyung uses the same speech as Lee Sunjoon at home. He also does actions like a historical person. Hyung doesn't look like an famous celebrity at home."
While studying acting in real life, Yoohwan started dreaming about learning acting. Acting wasn't an easy task. Watching his brother in "Sungkyunkwan Scandal," Yoohwan gave himself strength and said "I can [act well] to that degree too," but there were no opportunities for him. Fortunately, he received the chance to start acting after participating in an audition and eventually landed a role with MBC.
In "Shiny Shiny Shining," Yoohwan will play Lee Seowoo, an American-raised man whose heart is full of agony yet he keeps it to himself and would never reveal his inner thoughts to anyone. Yoohwan expressed his connection with this character, "The character is similar to me. I suffered much pain due to racism when I lived in America. I lived my life brightly with my family at home, but I was a dark child when outside."
Yoohwan wishes to study acting more and humorously stated, "Someday, I want to stand on the same stage as my hyung. It will be more interesting if [our characters] are rivals. Of course, I want to win in the movie." Despite saying this like a joke, Yoohwan demonstrated his competitive side by firmly stating, "I want to beat my hyung in acting."

[TRANS] 110217 "Folding Chairs For 130,000 Won Tickets?"...'Tears Of Heaven' Seats Criticized
The musical 'Tears of Heaven', which has become a hot topic because of Kim Junsu's participation, is receiving criticism from Kim Junsu's fans for setting up the OP section with folding chairs regardless of the high price of the tickets.
The musical, which is currently showing at the National Theater, has been garnering attention even before it began showing for the cast and crew involved, including Frank Wildhorn, Kim Junsu and Brad Little.
The show was expected to have explosive ticket sales due to the participation of Kim Junsu, and this proved true when all the shows Kim Junsu is set to star in were sold out in minutes.
But fans, who had focused on nothing but Kim Junsu's appearance at the beginning, are starting to raise their voices against Seol Company's seating arrangements as they said, "We buy and buy because Junsu's appearing in the show, and Seol Company's been blinded by the business we bring."
The problem they brought up was the OP section which is located right in front of the VIP section. These seats are situated at the front of the theater and are used only when there is no orchestra or when the theater is small.
Kim Junsu's fans have pointed out that Seol Company is charging the same price for all seats on the first level, but are being unjust when it comes to seating arrangements. On fan said, "OP seats should cost less than VIP seats or at least a certain distance away, but how can they put a couple of folding chairs in a section and call it the OP section?" and "The VIP section doesn't feel like the VIP section and neither does the OP section. How does it make sense that the back row of the first floor costs as much as the first row. 130,000 Won folding chairs? Really?" Another fan said, "I thought they already had OP section chairs like the Sejong Arts Center but all they did was put folding chairs in front of the VIP section. Because they made seats that didn't exist before, I couldn't see anything from the waist down of the actors."
Most of the time, the OP section costs as much as the R section or less because it is close to the stage, but its proximity makes it hard to see the stage. But 'Tears of Heaven' charged the same price of 130,000 Won as it charged for the VIP section, and as the company created seats with folding chairs, the new seats are affecting both those in the OP section and those sitting in the first few rows of the VIP section. Also, as the first three rows of the VIP section are on the same level, people who pay for the expensive tickets end up watching the show in severe discomfort.
A representative of the production company stated, "We worry that people say think that by charging 130,000 Won for all the seats on the first floor and by not differentiating between the VIP and OP sections, we may look like we're extorting fans through star marketing but that is not the case at all."
