These fragments of news come from a Japanese magazine ≪女性セブン≫ translated by miyuki_jks.
Part 1
JKS jokes, “if fans are searching for a ‘herbivorous man, carnivorous man’, then I am herbivorous by day and carnivorous by night. And in response to the trendy topic of plastic surgery in Korean showbiz, JKS answers the question in a humorous manner, “Looking at myself in the past feels like looking at my own brother.”
[Aphrael77: “herbivorous” seems to refer to more gentle or homely characteristics while “carnivorous” refers to more predator-like, aggressive characteristics]
Part 2
JKS was born in Seoul on 4 August 1987 and due to his grandfather’s career reaching its peak, the whole family moved to Danyang for the expansion of his grandfather’s business, until JKS was in grade 5 in primary school. In order to understand more about JKS, the reporter went to Danyang to research for information. Neighbours say of JKS, “His round and chubby face in the past was very cute. He liked to use an adorably beseeching tone, and was well-liked by adults.”
Part 3
At that time, his grandfather was in charge of fish farm management and grandmother in charge of preparing meals in the kitchen. JKS’ mother would help his grandmother prepare meals when she had the time. The task of feeding the fish bait was given to JKS.

Welcome to the world of political intrigue, strategy and subterfuge, where nothing is as what it seems, and in order to locate our brightest star, we had to weave our way through convoluted theories and pit our minds and endurance against those who are against us …

The Story
It all started on Sat 4 June around noon when we were waiting for JKS to depart JW Marriott for his rehearsal. We heard that some fans had planned to chase Sukkie and had booked vans. Another eel Apple provided us with a van driver’s contact. He charged a cheaper rate of RM 800 but he had no star-chasing experience nor any contacts, compared to RM 2,400 for another driver who had the contacts, the experience and the news. The inexperienced van driver told me that there were at least 7 exits out of KLCC and he wouldn’t know which exit JKS would use, so we thought there was no point in booking his van.
Then with the chaos that ensued when JKS departed JW Marriott and in the rush of the fan-sign event and Cri Show that day, we didn’t talk about chasing JKS. After the Cri Show ended, we followed the crowd out and down an escalator into a path that I didn’t recognize, so Carol asked a security guard for directions and we had to go up the escalator again to go out through another way. While walking, we were chatting and soon we reached the main entrance and porch where several vehicles were parked. I cannot recall who, but one of us suddenly said, “Aren’t those the fan vans that are chasing JKS?”
We took another look and indeed saw several white vans and some fans getting into the vans parked on the other side of the porch. On the side of the porch near us was another white van, but with security personnel milling around it. Was this JKS’ van? Upon further thinking and discussion, we concluded that it wasn’t JKS’ van but it was his security personnel’s van, so wherever JKS would go later, this van was bound to follow! Also, we saw JKS’ manager getting into this van too!
[News] Malaysia Cri Show Report
(Kuala Lumpur, 6 June) After the perfect ending of Korean pretty boy Jang Keun Suk’s Cri Show, JKS admitted that after a night of wild partying, he forgot to remove his make-up before sleeping and therefore he was busy with attending to his facial care and as a result, the media waited for one hour before they could meet JKS.
Once at the press conference, JKS apologized to the media and explained that as it was his first performance in Malaysia, he got increasingly excited during the show and after that went to a nightclub to party. It was in the wee hours when he went back to the hotel and he was so tired that he slept when he hit the pillow. As a result, the press conference originally scheduled to start at 3 pm started at 4.10 pm.
About his performance, he said,
[Fan Account] Jang Keun Suk’s Cri Show in Malaysia
Kuala Lumpur, 5 June – Korean popular star Jang Keun Suk is holding his “The Cri Show” Asia Tour and has been to Singapore, Hong Kong and Thailand, this time finally coming to Malaysia to meet fans. Besides the performance, JKS also had a private function and closer interaction with fans. His friendliness charmed all the girls, who screamed and cheered often at the function and also at the Cri Show.
The highest-priced ticket costs RM 658 (VVIP) which may appear expensive, but benefits include attending the Cri Show, private function and the autograph or photo-taking, as well as seeing the most genuine side of their idol – it was definitely worth it for eels! JKS also shared his views and thoughts with fans, and his humorous and friendly attitude made it hard for fans not to fall for his charm.
For JKS’ fan-sign in Malaysia, the date of the event was changed a few times, making many eels unhappy, but
[Fan Account] Part 1 by Aphrael77: Fan-sign on 4 June 2011
Hi all, apologies for disappearing online for 2 days since Friday 3 June; everything has been so hectic and rushed. By now, I would assume other sources would have updated news of JKS and his events in Kuala Lumpur, so here is just a very quick runover.
After a rather comfy coach ride overnight, we arrived in Kuala Lumpur on Saturday 4 June at 5 am, and checked in at Berjaya Times Square Hotel to take a short rest and freshen up. We were meeting Carol70 in the morning to take me to Central Market to collect something (for me to ask JKS to sign on it, which I’ll scan later when back home), then we went to JW Marriott to check in. Um, our hotel arrangement in KL was slightly complicated, as some of us had booked a room at Marriott to be closer to JKS.
We reached Marriott at 11 am, discovered a group of eels there and realised our dear JKS was going to exit the hotel to go for his rehearsal. So we waited there, and waited, and waited …. Now, perhaps it’s part of my nature to complain, but I must really gripe about the unfairness of security staff in general, particularly in their treatment towards fans.
The Marriott lobby area towards the main entrance is circular, with a big floral centrepiece in the centre, so when JKS comes out, he’ll either go towards either side of the circular pathway which leads to two glass entrances. In between the two entrances was a glass panelled wall, and there was a Western couple standing against the glass wall, waiting out of curiosity to see who the star was. As more and more fans lined the side of the circular walkway, Carol and I decided to move to the glass panelled wall in front of the Western couple (they were taller, so we didn’t obstruct their view at all). That position would give us a clear view of JKS coming down either side of the walkway.
