Kim Hyun Joong wins the Style Icon AwardsKim Hyun Joong has taken the #1 spot for the Style Icon Awards. Of course allkpop readers felt differently, as 2PM took the top spot in our poll, but I guess it was inevitable, as Hyun Joong was already leading by a landslide when the poll first went up on the O'live tv website. Super Junior took the #2 spot which is shocking, only because the ELF were unable to get their idols to #1. Lee Minho landed in 3rd and G-Dragon in 4th. I guess the fashionista has lost his touch this year. Check out the rest of the results below: 5. SS501 6. Lee Seung Gi 7. Goo Hye Sun 8. SNSD 9. Brown Eyed Girls 10. 2PM Thanks to TYPICALpocky for the tip. - allkpop

Kim Hyun Joong stated that the month of September was a very difficult time for him. At the time, he re-assured others saying everything is fine but now that the H1N1 ordeal is over he revealed how painful it actually was for him. He had constant stomach pains, bowel movements, diarrhea. His body was always hot and had very high temperature readings (104°F). He would cough non stop and had a severe sore throat. However, despite all this, he said the most difficult thing for him to endure was being alone in the hospital room all by himself (he was quarantined for a short while). Fellow SS501 member Park Jung Min stated that it was a very scary time for them. Not only were they concerned about Kim Hyun Joong's health but there were also added stress / concerns over their upcoming album. Kim Hyun Joong reassured everyone that he's completely recovered now and that he has worked very hard on the album with his fellow SS501 members. He ended the interview by wishing K.will, who was recently diagnosed with swine flu, a speedy and full recovery. Thanks to meera for the tip, remember to check out the Quainte501 Forums. - allkpop

The popular idol group SS501, already show us their highest side in their respective field like TV shows, group activities, music, drama, etc. After one year and seven months, they fully comeback together with new mini album “REBIRTH” All the fans are very concerned about SS501’s return so that the album received a warm response. On the 20th, many fans have been waiting to download the songs regardless of the late open time at 12:00. For the day begin for selling songs, fans have responded strongly. In the same day, SS501 also has been ranking high in the site search.
The album, compared to the SS501’s previous works are having many differences. The song “Love like This” filled with Pop and new main melody which replace the strong sense of iconic dance for idol group. The change of this album mainly because the music production teams are mostly foreigner. The new album is produced by Steven Lee who also participate in Japan group KAT-TUN,v6 and Germany group USS’s music production. The title song is produced by foreign music producers like Steven Lee, Drew Ryan Scott and Sean Alexander. Music is arranged by Ken Lewis, the music producer of Usher,Kanye West,John Legend, etc. Leader Kim Hyun Joong said “This album music is very different from our previous works. We have put in our best effort to produce this new music.”
Member Park Jung Min expressed “After listening to the music, I just surprise we can also produce this kind of music. This album is very different from our imagination”
Kim Hyung Jun said” This time we are not comeback with full album but mini album, feel very sorry for our fans. However, our album is still come out perfectly so we don’t really make our fans disappointed. Also, we have been preparing for our full album now. We will give all the fans a higher expectation.”
Kim Kyu Jong also said “‘REBIRTH” is a album which all of the members have involved highly in production. In addition, it is a production mostly based on our thinking.”
The mini album included the song “Green Peas” which members of SS501 personally make the lyrics to send back their love to fans. Kim Hyung Jun also produced the lyrics of anther song “Obsess”.
Kim Hyun Joong added, “We took off the idols feeling from the music, and change into the image of a mature man.” Not only in music but the new image design also attract people’s attention. As the same time as opening the music to public, they also send out the new image of the CD jacket.
Park Jung Min said “We have changed a lots in music, dance, also the appearance. We work from the beginning to the end to make a new side using our artist heart.”
Actually, until the album finally came out, there were lots of obstacle during the album production. Members told us the true that the original title song was found to be a stolen song. That’s why all the songs needed to be reproduced. In August, members received the song source of the original title song. During recording, they found out that the melody and music scores was just arranged from other songs.
Park Jung Min said “Because the music score was always changing, we were curious and felt suspected. After we finished the concert in Japan, on the returning plane, we heard a song very similar to ours. then finally found out that the song was already published in US.
At that time, SS501 had already finished the recording of the title song. After finding out the song was stolen, they needed to find some other songs to replace. Even more, member Kim Hyun Joong had paid over 8 million won for that song. Even though the money was returned at the end, they were almost deceived. Since the debut, SS501 have not been involved in any wrong doing, this time are almost fell into music piracy. Actually, until the album finally came out, there were lots of obstacle during the album production.

[News] SS501 Kim Hyun Joong ~ Behind his appearance is a mature manPosted on October 25, 2009 by ss501fighting Credit: www.youeasy.netTranslation: by me@ss501fighting.wordpress ☆ SS501 ☆ SARANGHAEYO ☆ Please give proper credit when reposting, thanks! ************************************************* Even though I always know that Hyun Joong is s serious person, I am still touched by this article/interview. Also, he is not as cold as somebody think. People just don't know him enough. credits to newyorkcitygirl of soompi ————————————————————————————————————————————— News: One year and seven months, SS501 has finally released a new album. Shape of a new series gives a great visual impact, mysterious, handsome and cool. In particular, when there is no expression goes on Hyun Joong’s face, it is hard to link him with the smile always hanging, “Yoon Ji-Hoo” together. For “Kim Hyun-Joong”, may be many people’s first reaction is “fourth dimension” or “aliens” like the Funny youth. In fact, a serious look at his face, you can feel the word “quiet”. Even the sun-like smile are also gentle, and faint. That is because the alternative veneer of a serious, mature, occasionally a bit timid man seems to actually hidden behind. Live seriously and carefully: I would like to seriously put every day life to work , and can be properly adhered to. Although the fall is not so impossible, but the real effort of life seems to be a good thing. Compared to complain about “too tired”, would like to do one more thing seems better in my heart. Self-evaluation, to spur myself: I’m not very often to look at some malicious response. Occasionally, in terms of my evaluation people left in the fan web site , I will write up my own feelings. Sometimes I will make my identity public, occasionally anonymous. I also often write something malicious in order to spur my own self-evaluation. Thankful for others, always want to give In fact, I do not like receiving gifts, but more used to give gifts to others. Even if I really want something, I am also embarrassed to ask for it from people, but I will buy myself. I will give out anything to the most worthy person. Do Whatever I can, do not want to become silly From childhood, I have been mature than friends is surrounding me, but now it want to live like children. In fact, even want to travel by myself were not possible, also want to take the subway situation but can’t . I’ve done things my friends are still doing, but my friends can do things I can not give now. It seems a child has turned back. Do not want to become a fool, so now things like booking airline tickets are all done by myself. Give double efforts to set a good example Step by step come to today, and now there are younger generation following me. Look at the recent show there are many of the younger generation which younger than me. The most biggest difference is having a 8-year gap. Seeing them, make me feel I have to work harder. I am not new now but need to be a model for the younger generation. Watching the progress of younger players, I should have more of continual improvement. I can not take the same step as the younger players but need to take double steps instead. Cold appearance but warm heart, Just feel powerless I do not know what is my own charisma. Even can not do very well on the opposite sex, also not even waved to the fans very often. Although wanted to wave, but always a little afraid of strangers. If fans can learn my heart through interviews, I will be so glad. Though fans will feel Hyun Joong brother is terrible, but in reality I’m just afraid of strangers only. *thanks to meteorflower
