Documentary of how KPop (TVXQ) changed my life... + X CREW + Shane Yoon's advice :)
I just want to say this right away. This is not a post about YunJae. :D
Since April 3 2006, I've been completely lost in YoonJae's world. Funny how I can still remember the date and celebrate it each year. It's true! I started liking Shounen Ai at the age of 7. I figured that it's the best kind of love in the world. Yes, guy/guy is WRONG. Yet it's amazing how they can simply just shrug it off, stay in love and go through all the trouble to fight for that love. I say gender is useless because soul is genderless. I'm not that much into Yuri or Shoujo Ai because If I try to imagine it, I'd rather see 2 men on a fist fight than 2 women doing bitchslaps. xD...and I have a really boyish personality. So I'm more interested in reading fics with male activities with sports and all strong things than women spending the days shopping and grooming themselves on parlors. Anyway, I shipped a lot of couple too...Some couples that I still remember are...
Recca x Kurei from Flame of Recca
Heero x Duo from Gundam Wing
Nuriko x Hotohori from Fushigi Yuugi
Nakago x Tamahome from Fushigi Yuugi
Suboshi x Amiboshi from Fushigi Yuugi
Rukawa x Sakuragi from Slam Dunk
Gon x Killua from HunterXHunter
Ouran Twins from Ouran High School
Touya x Yukito from Card Captor Sakura
Shinichi x Heiji from Detective Conan
Light x L from Death Note
Harry x Draco from Harry Potter
Justin Timberlake x Lance Bass from NSync
Bai x Tien from Formula 17
Akanishi x Kame from Kat-tun.
Tong x Miu from Love of Siam ( Mario x Pchy in real life ♥ )
Quite a lot? xD But I shipped them just for fun...except Yukito and Touya. They have this YunJae feel that We don't have to say we're real, it's obvious enough by the way we are around each other. I loved that couple a lot until, of course, I met YunJae. I found out about them while I was searching for the OST of formula 17 in youtube. Fortunately, destiny happened to make that OST be used in a Yunjae video tribute. I have no idea about who they are. I was like, "WTF is this? Are they for real?" Then I searched for YunJae and saw different clips and tributes and I really thought they are some kind of confirmed couple since they really do look like they are in love. I came across YunJae in XMan Cut where Jaejoong was singing a song for Yunho. Since that day, my father can no longer take me away from the computer. But I gotta say YunJae really made my life interesting...no more boring moments for me and no more nothing to do days. xD
Some of my friends might know this, but I really really got obsessed into this couple. There happened a time when I went 2 hours late in school because I'm making a YunJae video =)) and when I learned about this YunJae fanfic contest, I went ahead and made a very very very long ONESHOT in just 2 days so that I can pass it minutes before the submission deadline. That very very very long one shot is "Loving Without Margins" =)) Doesn't look like some oneshot at all... =)) I didn't win but I will forever remember the kindhearted kattan69 for a special reason. :") Giving more priority to yunjae than my own studies, I was ALWAYS asked by my class adviser why I can't come early to school. I cannot say the truth but it's either I'm making something yunjae related or reading a fanfic I have to finish before I go.
I continued living like that until September 2009. I seriously thought to myself, I love YoonJae...but I love myself too. Spending my life 24/7 YunJae-ing in the net does make me the most happy...but what about my future?! Will I still be watching them 10 years from now? So I went YunJae fasting and started thinking of what I'll be enjoy doing in the future too...dancing.
I've danced before but I was only 7 that time. I think the boyish person that I am, I danced to NSync's "It's Tearin' Up My Heart" xD Well, I know by heart that I've been too attached with TVXQ that I can no longer enjoy doing things not related to them. So I thought why not I start dancing TVXQ's songs? I was desperate for a change. I weren't trained to dance. But because I wanted to prove something to myself. I started joining dance contest, doing dance covers and performing at kpop gatherings.
My TVXQ Dance Compilation
(from Kpop Idol Contest & Cassph Gathering)
Everytime I do something, I don't mind if I'm good or not, if someone would be bothered by it or not, if someone would actually care to look at it or not. Would I be loved or hated for what I did, I don't think about that. I just do my best. The first time I danced alone in a contest, I was in highschool, some were college students, some were graduates. But I shouldn't be scared, I just want to try. While performing, I thought, 'Wow! TVXQ fans are amazing.' Even though, they don't know who I am, they still cheered for me because I performed as Jaejoong of TVXQ. When I won the contest, I was like, "Oh. This isn't a joke anymore. What happened?" The thing is that I joined the contest believing that I don't know how to dance and my sister keeps on telling me that I did great. Personally, I still think I'm not a good dancer but because I won...and there were people who cheered and supported me, I felt good and continued dancing.
I think this was the time when JaeChunSu lawsuit has been filed. I couldn't dance TVXQ anymore so my 24yrs old sister and I together with five more people got together and joined the same contest as JYP's 2pm. We named our group 7PM.

Click to viewJust months after, we formed another group, a 10 member group and named it "X Crew"
Originally, we planned to do different Dance Covers. I'm not sure what happened but we suddenly just decide to stick on dancing Super Junior songs. I think it was because the first time we performed, we danced to Super Junior's Boom Boom and Bonamana, Suju fans started saying and passing around that we're a cover group for Super Junior. That's why we decided to just perform Super Junior songs through out. That's what we're expected to do. Majority of us are Super Junior fans too, anyway. :")

Anyway, that's pretty much what happened to my life...the very reason why I missed a lot of YunJae moment. I didn't even know the Yashimanman thing with Yunho and a lot lot lot more. So if anyone wants to update me about any YunJae that has happened during Sept 2009 to November 2010, thanks a lot. I just moved in New York from Asia. And there really aren't a lot of things to do here than just be at home eat, sleep and browse the net. YunJae fans or TVXQ fans must know this by now. They are an obsession and if you don't do something, you can so easily lose yourself to them. Honestly, I'm scared that I'm being who I was a year ago. I feel like I'm losing my dream because I am enjoying what I am doing right now. That's why I contacted Shane and consulted him about it. Of course, being the nice man that he is, he said...
For those who are wondering if Shane replied about our YunJae talk, he did but his reply isn't YunJae related anymore. But a friend of mine, Fnabilah Cassie, said that she asked Shane Yoon if he knows about YunJae and he replied, "I HAVE A PRETTY GOOD IDEA. HAHA" Of course, YunJae is always a good idea!
I heard about JYP SME YG CUBE NEGANETWORK auditions. Is that for real? I mean do they really accept non Koreans? My sister said I should try it. Honestly, the only thing that interests me about Korean Ents is the thought that I can possible stalk YunJae or any artist I want. But other than that, it looks so complicated. I don't get their business strategies and contracts. For me, it doesn't look like a good idea but I heard auditioning won't cost me anything, not even a single penny, right?
Anyway, I have decided. Sincerely, I am not a wealthy person but I will not let that affect what and who I want to become. Next month, January 2011, I'll work really hard so I can afford going to Blade Academy's One year training of Contemporary HipHop. I'll also continue my vocal training in any way possible. If there is a will, there's a way!
For those who have read this entry, I am deeply sorry for wasting your time.
I know this is not something you want to read, but I just have to get this off my chest.
If anyone out there wanna give me some advice and all, I'd read and appreciate it a lot. ♥
