JKS’ performance is simply stunning!
The rain didn’t stop him from giving his best as always, and it added a wild element to his performance!

This is going to be my favourite video, and definitely the first full-length one I have of a Lounge H song 🙂
Great night, great performance – the only regret is that it’s not enough!
Looking forward to JKS’ FM (with Lounge H song included) in Singapore next Saturday!

[GCMA] Lounge H performance!

First, congratulations to Jang Keun Suk (and all eels) for winning the “Korean Most Influential Artiste” award!

JKS performed Lounge H song “Gotta Get Cha” in the rain!
His performance enlivened the atmosphere and made everyone very high!

[Video] 15th GCMA green carpet

Video / subtitles: Aphrael77

Erm…. if there’s anything not satisfactory about the video, it’s due to the poor skills of the photographer i.e. me.
I over-zoomed slightly and my TV is wide-screen, so I couldn’t find him when he went off to the side. My camera can do zooming in the midst of video, but I panicked and didn’t know why I cannot zoom out too….. Whew!

Basically, watching the green carpet is very exciting because there are lots of other celebrities, and more exciting because I was waiting with bated breath for JKS! His performance will be coming up later!

15th GCMA “Green” Carpet

The GCMA has an environmentally green theme this year, which accounts for the “green” carpet, the bamboo backdrop on which celebrities pen their signature and the green ribbon that each celebrity wears on their attire. Even the Awards are organised in an open-style concept of a “bamboo forest party”.

Jang Keun Suk appeared on the green carpet at around 5.56 pm China time, which was much earlier than I expected him to. It seems like the other artistes take a long time to walk down that stretch of carpet, but JKS seems to finish that walk in such a short time! He introduced himself in Chinese and completed his greeting in English. It is a pity that some of the other celebrities get asked interesting questions by the emcees, and I was looking forward to how JKS would display his wit and humour in answering questions, but the emcees didn’t ask him anything! Language barrier, I suppose?

GCMA Rehearsal News

Jang Keun Suk had quite a late night on 14 April, as he wasn’t satisfied with his performance and requested to rehearse many more times. On 15 April, he declined an interview in order to spend more time on rehearsal, though because of his late night, he slept past 1 pm and the organising team and crew were all waiting for Sukkie to wake up!

Even GCMA organisers comment that Jang Keun Suk really has stage presence, and the audience will definitely be charmed by him and his singing!

15th GCMA Online Broadcast

Shared by: JKS Fans Club Malaysia

You can try these two Chinese websites that will supposedly broadcast the 15th GCMA online, though the website will lag at high traffic volume. If they air the red carpet section, it will start at 7 pm China time, or the Awards at 8 pm China time.

One of these websites seems to have a bug that keeps making an internet window pop up, but I just close it.

This first website is at least working now:

JKS looks absolutely cool!

On an unrelated note, for tonight’s 15th Global Chinese Music Awards, I have done a test run but found out that after I compressed my video from over 300 MB to 160 MB (as .bik file which I don’t know if Youtube accepts), it still takes donkey’s years to upload. If anyone knows how to compress a video file for quicker upload to Youtube, please teach me!

[14 April 2011] JKS arrives in Chengdu, China


JKS at Incheon Airport

Despite HS Media, Tree-J and Jang Keun Suk not releasing his flight details, eels got wind of JKS’ flight details on 14 April 2011, departing Incheon airport at 20:00 hours and reaching Chengdu, China at 22:50 hours. Chinese eels headed excitedly for ShuangLiu Airport from as early as noon.

Unfortunately, the eels didn’t have an easy time at the airport, because there were fans of 3 other Chinese artistes there, so the situation was a bit chaotic with lots of cheering and shouts. JKS exited the airport in a record 10 seconds and most eels didn’t even manage to catch a glimpse of JKS…

The latest news is that JKS has GCMA rehearsal throughout the night.

3 versions of JKS’ official photo-book “Jplus”!! Pre-order starts 15 April

Aphrael77’s note:

Jang Keun Suk’s first official photo-book will come out in 3 different versions!
For more details, please click below to continue reading.

I’m confused by some of the information. It seems as if “Jplus Limited” (the only one with the DVD) and Jplus are only available for sale in Japan and Korea, and overseas fans can only buy Jplus Favourite (the 80 photograph cards)?? I’m speechless … I am not sure whether these 3 versions are all there will be, or whether there is another international (or English?) version that will come out….

Pre-order starts on Frau (Japanese website) on 15 April 2011 to 10 May 2011. Out of the people who order “Jplus Limited” during the special pre-order period, 300 fans will be selected for a JKS autograph session in Japan. The organisers will then inform these 300 fans the details of the autograph session by mid-June.

Although “Jplus Limited” is only available in Japan, for those residing in Singapore, there is a way to get it.
