So…for the love of Kim Jaejoong, I travelled halfway across the world to attend The Kim Jaejoong Fanmeet in Taiwan…on a weekday.No regrets whatsoever. It was one of the best fandom-related event I’ve ever attended. I’ve been to a few JYJ concerts and the KJJ Shanghai fanmeet, but nothing beats having a clear good view of The Kim Jaejoong in front of you showing his hyper adorable self for almost one and a half hour. What makes this event more memorable is having been able to share this experience with fellow Jaejoong fans from various parts of the world. I met and dined with fans that came from USA, Australia, Singapore, Malaysia, Japan, Korea, Philippines and Taiwan ^^.
~~~~
The fanmeet started at around 8:00PM with an introductory video of Jaejoong . Then, came out Jaejoong with rockish hair and outfit!! *cue fan scream*. He wore a white shirt under a black blazer and everyone’s favorite jeans ripped black jeans.
He started out singing “I’ll Protect You” (Protect the Boss OST). Hearing him hit his high notes (at 1:53 to 1:56 of the video below) is amazing. He never failed to amaze me with his live singing. His voice is just so powerful, it can give you goosebumps.
After the performance, he greeted the fans in both Chinese and Korean. He was so amused and amazed that, even though, he was speaking in Korean, the fans understood him and were answering his questions/ greetings. His laughter (and giggled ) were so adorable ( ~ told you spazzing is involved in this FA ~).
He greeted and introduced himself in Chinese. The MC did ask him too why he didn’t do his usual famous greeting “Ni papa mama shen ti hao ma” (how are your parents) XD
When he sat down the stool, he jokingly closed his legs together (since his jeans are ripped even on his thigh area XD)
1st Q&A Session:
I don’t recall all of the Q&A, but here’s a few (thanks to my interpreters/ translators during the fanmeet ^^). These are questions from the post-it notes that fans posted on a white board.
- When asked about favorite food in Taiwan – Jaejoong said he likes pearl milk tea , especially the tapioca pearls. He said that he wants to try a variety of food, but it seems that he’s already tried all the food that other people recommend him; he also said that he’s looking for food that will increase his vitality because he’s been so busy lately that his energy decreased ~ ~ ~
- The MC asked him what he usually carries on his bag, and requested if he can show the fans the contents of his bag. His manager brought out his bag, and inside are: sunglasses, iPad, headphones, perfume, knee medicine, liver tonic, fish oil, platinum credit card, 2 USD bill, passport. He said he carries a lot of supplements because he’s been busy lately that he sometimes skip meals (>.<). He said he slept just two hours (not sure if it’s just on the fanmeet day; or on recent days).
- He gave the MC a 2-dollar bill for luck (2 dollar bills are rarely circulated nowadays, JJ was really nice to give this to the MC ^^)
- The MC asked him which part of him/ his body does he wash first when he takes a shower – he answered enumerating his ‘shower sequence’ – shampoo his hair, put conditioner, then (while waiting for conditioner to take effect XD) he brushes his teeth, then rinse the conditioner, last is to wash his body
- The MC asked him if he liked younger or older women, he said age doesnt matter. When the MC further prodded him to make a choice, he said “pass!”
- When asked about his secret for maintaining his nice skin, he said “he’s born with it” XD. Though, he said that, lately, he’s seen some wrinkles and has been feeling old. Since he’s been busy, it seems that he hasnt been able to take good care of his skin. Fans disagree with him XD.
- When asked about Dr. Jin filming, he said the most difficult part is wearing the “tie-knot” on his hair, the clothes and delivering his lines with correct intonation.
First Game
First game was a charade. Ten fans were selected to guess while Jaejoong acted. Five winners got to have a polaroid picure taken with Jaejoong (so lucky!). Be forewarned that I may have mixed answers/ guesses. Jaejoong was so hyper and adorable during this game ~ spazzing and too much laughter may have caused some memories to be forgotten/ recalled wrongly.
- Flower boy – He was so hyper and adorable acting this ‘word’. He did some flower boy poses like flipping his hair, putting his hand on his chin with one knee up, flipping his hair (again). Oh, did I already say he was adorable during this segment? :D
- Exercise – He did push-ups on stage!
- Freestyle – He did ‘freestyle swimming action; He was so into it, he ‘swam’ from one end of the stage to the other end =).
- Abs – he (coyly) showed his abs ~ abs, abs, abs ~ ; he lifted his shirt and showed his abs
There was a short break and Jaejoong came out dressed in all black. Handsome and chic as usual ^^
Second Game
Second game was a ‘drawing’ game. The fans guessed the items that Jaejoong drew. The MC was boasting of Jaejoong’s drawing skills; i don’t know if he was serious (XD). Throughout the game, Jaejoong looked like he was so serious with drawing that it was funny to see (sorry Jae!). I was just staring at his facial expressions. Too adorable!!! Things that he draw:
- Meat dumpling (?) – I thought it was an onion at first XD. He then turned this meat dumpling into a bearded man (when youlook at it upside down). I really admire his quick thinking, humor and wittiness
- Bubble tea – I think he really likes tapioca pearls ~ his drawing looks like 90% tapioca pearls and 10% milk tea
- Figure with a big butt ~ Junsu! MC recommended to turn this into a banner and wave it to Junsu on the next JYJ event
The fans took home the drawings. These were signed by Jaejoong. They shook hands/ hugged Jaejoong too. Lucky them!
Fans Video Message
They showed a fanmade video message and MC asked Jaejoong to watch it – Fans wanted to let Jaejoong know that whatever path he chooses/ endeavor to take, fans will support and protect him. Told him not to worry that fans will leave him, fans will be with him forever. (There’s much more to this moving video; I’ll leave the translation to the experts ^^). Jaejoong thanked the fans that he’s able to smile because of them. Here’s the video:
2nd Q&A Session:
Again, I don’t recall all of the Q&A, but here’s a few:
- When asked why he likes elephants so much, he said that when he went to Thailand before, he mentioned he wanted to ride an elephant because he’s never ridden one before. And, it just happens that fans gave him ‘elephant’ toys/ gifts. Now, he has over 30 elephant toys/ items.
- JJ said he’s interested to act on a Chinese movie or drama,or work with Chinese production because someone told him it’s interesting to film in mainland China
- When asked if he regularly meets up with his fellow JYJ members, he said that the three of them are busy with their individual schedules that they don’t have time to meet-up. They last saw each other during the Nintendo CF shoot.
- After the filming of his drama, JYJ will go into production of the JYJ album
- When question about song he composed came up, the fans requested him to sing a bit of “No Gain”
Then, he sang “For You” (Noreul Wihae) !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ^_________^. This is such a dream come true for me. I’ve always wanted to hear him sing. I was so happy I wanted to cry!!! There were a couple of silent pauses because he forgot a few lyrics ~ (I didnt’ have the heart to react, because he looked so serious >.<). Despite that, his rendition of the song is still so beautiful <3 <3 <3.
After the song ended, he apologized he couldn’t sing the song well; he said he was so happy during the fanmeet that he couldnt sing the song with the ‘correct emotion’. I still think he sang it beautifully ^__^. I’m so thankful he chose to sing this song during this fanmeet.
Jaejoong made his final greetings. He said he’s so happy ^__^.
