They will continue their activities in different areas and present us with their various talents.
Jaejoong was chosen to take part in a project that was created between Korea and Japan. Jaejoong: Hello I am Jaejoong. This time I will be taking the challenge of acting for the first time. Personally it’s a a very fresh and new challenge, and it is very different from standing on stage and having a performance. I think singing and acting is completely different.

Yoochun: With acting, I thought about it a lot. Before choosing a drama that I wanted to be in, there was a lot of things I had to learn first. During this time, I created a new me. I feel that it wasn’t me that chose this drama but the staff that chose me for the drama. Narrator: Without deep experience in acting, Yoochun acted with definite expressiveness and contributed greatly to this drama. Goo Yong Ha: At first I thought Yoochun would be someone who would be picky and difficult to please. But he was actually really easy going and we became friends quite quickly.

But Yoochun is strong physically, good at reading lines, so there’s no need to worry~ Narrator: With versatile talents, our expectations of actor Yoochun continue to build up! Yoochun: In order to show a great performance I will put in all my hard work!

This is my second time appearing in a musical, and I think this time I will be able to grow more as a musical actor and it’s a huge honour to be able to perform alongside other great actors. Narrator: The musical “Tears of Heaven” is currently an acitivity being created by a director from Broadway, it is a musical created with high quality. Junsu: Comparing musical and pop songs in that sense there is not much different so that’s not worrying but since I have little experience in acting I believe that this might be worrying for myself and others too. But I will work my hardest to make it a moving and touching creation. Narrator: These three members don’t just fascinate us with their singing but also with their acting! This multi-talentedness is the strength of JYJ!
