Kim Kyu Jong - “Decided To Retire When People Makes Me Feel Too Difficult”
The heart that got hurt by people can only be healed through people. Coming back to the music scene after 1 year and 7 months is idol group SS501’s Kim KyuJong, who had thought of retiring due to getting hurt deeply by people. He also considered seriously to quietly going back to his hometown and live on listening to his favorite music.
The reason for him to think of the word ‘retire’ is due to the wounds he received from people. Especially because of his character of trusting people easily and shy of strangers, Kim KyuJong fell into the deep into his agony. Thoughts like “My character doesn’t fit as a singer?” filled his head.
“I stopped doing what I was originally doing. Because I received too much wounds from people. I even think like ‘My character is not suitable?’ sigh~ I thought of leaving without any prior notice at the thought of living comfortably without any desires.”
This is not a joke, Kim KyuJong really intended to leave. But he made a long journey and returned once again on the stage. Kim KyuJong released his first solo mini album ‘TURN ME ON’ on 27-Sep. So what is the reason for Kim KyuJong to sing again?
“Because of people. I realized that there are still many people who cherishes me like before. All thanks to these people, I was determined to work hard. In the past when I have lots of work, I will grumble but now I will have fun and enjoy it. (smile)”
Kim KyuJong, whom we have not seen for a long time, looks even brighter than before. Though his difficulties during this period has not diminished yet, thanks to the precious affinity with his current agency and its staffs, he was able to gather strength to stand up again. SS501 member Heo YoungSaeng, who is with him in his current agency B2M Entertainment, becomes his biggest strength.
“Thinking of standing on the stage again after 2 over years, I feel happy and excited. Of course, though there are still many things I don’t know yet, but won’t these change accordingly when I becomes determined to do it? (Heo) YoungSaeng hyung also said I am suitable to sing and supported me. It became a big strength to me.”
While having activities as SS501, thanks to the few members who loves being in the limelight, the usually quiet him had a 180 degrees change and we can feel the change in this meeting with him. Don’t know if it’s a natural change as he will have the camera time all to himself which he had shared with 5 members in the past.
Of course, the first drink cannot fill you full, Kim KyuJong does not demand too much on his first solo album. He only hopes to walk quietly towards the fans who got wet under the drizzle.
“I like American singer Tommy Page’s music very much. Though it is not a very outstanding type of music, you will remember it for a very long time. Like for my song, even though it will not appear as very outstanding when fans listen to it, but it will quietly linger around, so even when time passes by, I hope I can hear people say ‘This song is really good’. It is my dream to become a singer with such charisma.”
Though he started off as idol group, Kim KyuJong came out standing alone now, he wants to be remembered as a singer who has a ‘deep scent’. In year 2011, he will step forward alone, not as a group but as solo, not as idol but as a singer.“I like American singer Tommy Page’s music very much.

Kim Kyu Jong “Extraordinary Female Make-Up Photo, Hoping to be Pretty but Simply Transvestite”
Last of SS501 to make a solo debut, Kim KyuJong’s teaser photo had various ‘extraordinary’ points. Heavy make-ups, pearl necklace, female clothing with white hairstyle... immediately after it was being released, there was a heated attention among music fans as well as in various online communities. There are different types of reactions, from curiosity regarding his new attempt, to negative responses.
Kim KyuJong said honestly, “Even though it would be great to hear many nice words about it but getting away from that, I thought that I should do something that I have never done before. And it attracted many people’s attention on it.” He added “Because I won’t be showing that in my performance, so I just wanted to be showing this image.”
He said he is thankful even for those negative responses. He said, “Even then, I think they will say ‘What’s this?’ when they see the photo. Besides cursing over the photo, I am thankful simply that they found and saw the photo. Because it would seem like the traits in my performance, so it is good since it will create attention for it.”
Kim KyuJong’s dressing as woman hides 2 meanings. First is, the wholly white make-up signifies that even though there are diverse colors on the inside, he will break off from all of them and will show his own set of color in his performance.
Kim KyuJong explained, “The 2nd meaning is that while putting on make-up and filming, I thought that the title song is just too sad. It is not that I like a person similar to me. You will become similar with any person you like. Breaking up with the girlfriend, you will think that you can find the image of your girlfriend in your own face. So I put the make-up just like how the girlfriend would. If you look at the album jacket photo, you can also see photos of removing the make-up.”
Kim KyuJong said after explaining the hidden meaning, “I thought that it is really difficult being a female.” He continued “It is difficult to put on fake eyelashes. ‘How can you go out wearing this? It is tough to look beautiful’, these thoughts came to me. For guys, we just wear whatever will do. Females create beauty from small little things, which is tough. It’s just so difficult be it by just not moving, or putting on the fake eye lashes.”
He added “Frankly speaking, I was embarrassed initially but finds it fresh and original while taking the photos. I felt ‘There’s also such a side of me’, ‘When should I try this’. But I wasn’t pretty. I took the photo hoping that I will come out like a pretty lady but I came out just like a transvestite.” And laughed. He continued “Well that’s too bad. I was thinking if I should have put on a wig, but I don’t think it will work.”
Throughout the interview, we can feel Kim KyuJong enjoying the preparations for his solo album and various new challenges he has. “I have not gone into active promotion activities yet so I am not sure, but it was fun but tiring to be making it alone. I have tried various things and also talked a lot about my personal stuffs, it is making me excited. In the past, members share their opinions and fine-tuned it, but now there was too much because there is no one who gives control over it, however the song came out which I am personally satisfied with.”
Meanwhile, Kim KyuJong will start his active promotion activities in music shows broadcasts starting from Mnet ‘M Countdown’ on 29-Sep. Title song ‘YESTERDAY’ comprises of unique raging deep sensitivity in its second half of the song, attracting anticipation by showing the colors of Kim KyuJong.

How To Help Kim Kyu Jong for his Upcoming Solo Album Debut 'Turn Me On'
Okay, I know we foreign fans are not allowed anymore to purchase and stream in a particular korean music site whereas we already are comfortable to use it. I'm talking about Soribada. I don't know to the other sites, but as fas as I know we aren't allowed to use this anymore. I think we can still use Mnet but, I don't think you guys will use it since it has a really complicated steps to follow.. So what I suggest:
The result? KARA won several times right? So I think and I believe this would be a great idea since I know some of you can't do anything and still hoping if Soribada is still working. So here's what we can do.. and it's really EASY ^^ Easier than streaming in Soribada kekeke =))

Kim Kyu Jong on his solo debut, SS501, and his hopes for a big year-end stage
SS501 member Kim Kyu Jong is the last of his group to debut with a solo album. While the others were busy getting their respective albums out, Kyu Jong spent his time acting and singing in musicals. All that changed on September 28th, however, when he unleashed his first mini-album, “Turn Me On“.
The star sat down for an interview with Newsen, and shared his thoughts on his solo debut, his group, and his hopes for a huge collaborative stage at the end of the year.
Check out his interview below!
–
“I didn’t really think about releasing my own album. I thought that if anything, Heo Young Saeng hyung would be the first to release one,” he began. He laughed as he continued, “I didn’t know that the others would come out with theirs so quickly!”
Kyu Jong mused, “Its intimidating because the other members’ albums are doing so well. I want to do well too, but I don’t wish for anything big. I just want people to think I released something decent.”
The star then moved on to express his hopes for SS501. “I’m always going to be waiting for the day that all of us would be able to make another SS501 album. This isn’t the end of us, rather it’s just the beginning.” “We all want to produce another album together, but it’s just too hard given the situation. I think right now is a good time for all of us to focus on doing our own thing.”
Kyu Jong then confessed, “To be honest, when people thought ‘SS501′, they simply thought, ‘Kim Hyun Joong‘. This is something that really upset not only the rest of the members, but Hyun Joong hyung as well. I think if we each take the time right now to improve ourselves, then later we can come back together to be better than we were before. No one will be able to say anything then.”
Kim Kyu Jong also spoke out against the rumors that said the members weren’t as close anymore.
“We’re always the same. It was Hyung Jun hyung’s birthday not that long ago, and people kept asking me if I was forcing myself to wish him a happy birthday. They think we aren’t close at all, but that’s not the case. I think the closer you are to someone, the less you need to go out of your way to pretend.”
He looked excited as he revealed that there was always something he’s wanted to try. “It might be impossible because we’re all so busy. It’s the first time all of us released an individual album in a single year, so when there’s a large event at the end of the year, I want to combine all the songs we’ve performed thus far together into one long medley. And I want for us to stand on stage together to sing our individual parts.”
Kim Kyu Jong will be promoting his title track “Yesterday” from his debut album, “Turn Me On”.

[News] Kim KyuJong 'Good Drinking Capacity? Learned From HyunJoong, Really Vigorous'
English translation: Stephanie (@5StarsAs1/ www.4dleaderever.blogspot.com)
On 15th of September in the broadcast of KBS 2TV 'Yeoyoomanman', Kim KyuJong, Song ByeongJun, and Kim HyunJoong reunite once again, and story about Kim HyunJoong & his drinking capacity was revealed by Kim KyuJong.
On that day, Kim HyunJoong made a surprise visit to Kim KyuJong & director Song Byeongjun during the musical 'Goong' rehearsal. As Kim KyuJong is a member of SS501 too, and Song ByeongJun was the producer for the KBS2 'Boys Over Flowers', thus the friendship bonds were developed between them with Kim HyunJoong.
Regarding Kim HyunJoong's surprise visit to the rehearsal room, Song Byeongjun said, 'It seemed like KyuJong was even surprised that I am'. So, Kim HyunJoong jokingly said, 'Actually, that's not true. Sometimes, KyuJong looked as if he just had soju. He have a good drinking capacity'.
Kim KyuJong replied, 'After I grew up to become an adult, I learned to drink for the first time from HyunJoong, really vigorous'. At the same time during Kim HyunJoong's vigorous 'alchohol training', you can predict how good is he in drinking too. Kim HyunJoong said, 'When I was young, I thought it's good to eat a lot, but I'm thinking otherwise now'.
Furthermore, Kim KyuJong who are challenging the musical industry recently was asked whether 'Is there a big help from Kim HyunJoong as a sunbae(senior) in acting?' and so he answered, 'What really had helped me was how serious Kim HyunJoong looked when he was reading the script or practicing during his drama shooting, it really had left me with a deep impression and it seems like it have become a friendly competition between us' which garnered many attentions.
