Junsu’s $13.5 million investment in hotel on Jeju Island nearing completion



JYJ‘s Junsu hotel resort on Jeju Island is nearing completion.

Back in 2011, he received permission to build the hotel in Gangjeong-dong, Seogwipo-si. The hotel will be named ‘Jeju Toscana Family Hotel’, and Junsu’s father will be in charge of managing the hotel. Most of the hotel is already completed, and on March 23, they held a semi-opening which Junsu attended.

The original plans for the hotel were for it to encompass 76,780 square feet but they decided to expand it further to 87,768 square feet. The hotel is four stories high and also has a basement level. It’s reported that Junsu invested around 15 billion KRW (approximately $13,500,000 USD) of his own money into the hotel.

A real estate representative thought it was advantageous to have a big name attached to the hotel, stating, “Since the Hallyu idol Junsu is connected to the hotel, if JYJ holds any of their events at the hotel, tourism will naturally rise. Then, the surrounding businesses will be vitalized, and he’ll help spread the name of the city.”

Jaejoong Excerpt [2]: The JYJ Magazine, Story of 1000 Days





Transcript:



On Dr. Jin


Although there were many difficulties and burdens, Kim Jaejoong has overcome all with his ability and endeavor. After the end of the drama, he received honorable mentions such as, ‘The rediscovery of Kim Jaejoong,’ and ‘Actor who excellently portrays a star-crossed figure, Kim Kyungtak.’

“When everything started, I also had the same fear. After the drama ended, I knew that the character, Kyungtak, had given me many things. Sometimes, I still re-watch the last episode of Dr.Jin and I still fall for Kyungtak whose tears blankly flowed in that scene. He tried his best to protect people around him. I think we have that point in common. That’s why I really like that guy.”



On Directing Son Yeonjae’s Gala

Other than concerts, Kim Jaejoong had to prepare for the stage of a gala show. He said, “It would have been hard for her because it was not something Yeonjae has been steadily doing. Because dance and gymnastics are totally different. It was the first time that I was so serious about teaching someone something. I’m thankful that Yeonjae followed so well.”

This gala show was also the chance for Jaejoong to be closer to Son Yeonjae. “At the time when I was the director of the show, she used to call me ‘director-nim’ but nowadays, she calls me ‘oppa.’ I watched Infinite Challenge, in which Yeonjae appeared, ‘Oppa’ - ‘Ahjussi’ - “Uncle’ are clearly seperate but I was ‘Oppa’ without constraint. (laugh)”



On Cooking

Kim Jaejoong who is very interested in cooking chose haejangguk [T/N: haejangguk refers to all kinds of guk (soup) eaten as a hangover cure in Korean cuisine] as the menu he can make with full confidence. Its squid soup with radish. “Actually, you just have to buy the ingredients and cook it. Put radish, parsley, groundsel in. Then top it with sliced squid and cook it. I’m also good at making seafood soup and gochujang pasta [T/N: gochujang = red pepper paste]. If I have a chance in the future, I also want to enter the restaurant business.”

JYJ’s Yoochun assures fans he didn’t shave his head for the military



[Note: Moments after he appeared in public, Yuchun became a hot topic. Even though Yuchun himself said it wasn’t for Military service, C-JeS had to quickly issue a notice to clarify. Yuchun has cut his hair short after being in a drama previously, but this time, his hair is shorter than usual. It came as a shock^^]


JYJ‘s Yoochun scared fans with his latest hairstyle. After shaving his head, Yoochun had to assure many of his fans that he did not do it because he is planning to enlist in his mandatory military service anytime soon.

When photos of the star’s new haircut appeared online, netizens were expecting him to announced that he’d be leaving for the army. However, C-JeS Entertainment quickly revealed that he simply felt like changing his style after the finale of the MBC drama ‘I Miss You‘.

In other news, Yoochun recently participated in the ‘Kind Library Project‘, which he’s also endorsing, to produce audiobooks for the blind. He also held his first press conference in China.
