TVXQ split...planned?

Ive been meaning to write this for quite a while and now I think Im just gonna come out with it. Here's my view of whatever crap is going on between HoMin and JYJ. My views are from the perspective of a business student so maybe you might find it a bit odd. So here it is.

I think the split was planned. I know this sounds outrageous..but I think it was. I mean really now....dont you guys think that the split is just a little too...convinient? I mean they split into 3:2. Just like that. RIGHT DOWN THE MIDDLE. JYJ on one side and HoMin on the other. Exactly in the order they used to stand togther. I find that a little suspicious. Another thing that just doesnt fit is Junsu. He's been an SM trainee since he was 12. The longest out of the 5 and his close friendship with Yunho [Yes,I firmly believe HoSu were extremely close] doesnt exactly scream 'I hate my life here'. Wouldnt he have been aware of how things went on?

In Tvn Taxi and Knee Drop Guru,HoMin said "We didnt know about the lawsuit". This for me is a straight out LIE! How can they have NOT known? Werent they all living together? If such a discussion had happened,they wouldnt have known? Or did Jaejoong decide to call Junsu and Yoochun into his room and left HoMin in the lounge so that they could talk about their plan to sue? I think HoMin were aware of what was going to happen and Junsu's tweets prove it. He claimed that and I quote 'I thought they were the enemy of all of us hyung,but I guess not'. Now Junsu is emotional but I doubt he'd have posted this without thinking and Im certain he wrote this in response to Yunho's bull about not knowing anything.

Now we all are aware of JYJ's increasing popularity despite SM's attempts to quel them. Now,here's where the business part comes in. One thing we need to look at is the fact that the entertainment industry is just one big business. SM is a company and the artists are their products which they market to us,the consumers. If I was an entertainment giant,and I had this one product that made alot of money,call it a cashcow if you may,I would want to keep milking it in the long run aswell. But how long can I make this product last? Here's a thought. Why dont I stop making it and relaunch it later so that the demand for it increases. This is what I think happened to DBSK.

JYJ breaks off and SM blocks their activities and then the internet is flooded with pics of JYJ's luxury cars and homes and what not. Yes,the drama's and international tours raked in alot of money but activities being blocked in Japan and Korea can lead to a huge dip in their earnings. I have a sneaking suspicion that SM might be paying JYJ as compensation for blocking their activities. Wait,here me out. This will make sense in a bit.

Now when these 5 boys decided to sign their contracts with the company,Im sure the time-limit was listed and they knew what they were getting into and were willing to do so. This demolishes the 'slave-contact' claim which I always found really stupid. Thats not possible and highly unethical and had that been true,SM's shares would have been in tatters because no investor is stupid enough to put his money in a company whose legal department is ed up. So I never believed the slave contract thing. As far as Im concerned,JYJ were completely aware of what they were doing and the contract had nothing to do with the split. It was just there to create hype.

In business we study that promotion is all about generating the interest of consumers so that they will buy more. The breakup of TVXQ is by far the biggest scandal in kpop to date because lets face it..our 5 boys were more famous than their seniors and BoA seems to be disappearing into hollywood. Heres the main point. I think SM planned to break them up because that would mean alot of mad cassies and even non-cassies would be curious. Sure,initially they'd make a loss but has anyone ever thought about what would happen if the 5 came back? The money thats gonnna roll in? DB5K's comeback would probably rake in more money than all other SM artists combined. SM's profits and shares would go through the roof! JYJ has alot of overseas fans and I always wondered why HoMin dont expand internationally. Answer: They dont need to because JYJ is doing that for them. Anyone who becomes a fan of JYJ would ultimately find out about HoMin and that would give them the recognition they need. So whilst JYJ focuses on international activities,TVXQ focus on Japan and Korea and this would result in an even larger fanbase than before with international and local fans combined and increasing.

All this drama with Twitter and controversial remarks and the 'Oh Yunho doesnt answer my calls and reply to my texts' thing is just there to make fans go crazy and add to the scandal. And then at the end of the day,when SM brings the 5 back,not only will their profits rise but its image will improve as the slogan's go from " SM" to "OMG SM IS SO GOOD! THEY BROUGHT THEM BACK! THANKYOU!"

Im not saying that my view is whats actually going on but I think this is a different way of looking at the situation. Chances are that HoMin and JYJ are just fighting like little children and they let their fame get to them and have forgotten how important their friendship was and are now bickering over something as trivial as money. Either they need to grow up or Im gonna have to smack a ! ;@

As for the blog photo..Ive seen quite a few of these with that red line there. Whoever is making these needs to stop or Ima have to smack another . -.-

I get where your coming from, and it does make sense, but if DBSK do reunite i would be extremely happy, but i feel other ppl who are not fan of JYJ will start saying more crap to them, and im sure some fans will feel tht whatever JYJ went through was a waste, idk anyway i really do hope they will reunite! but now i have gotten used to them being separate, i just learned to accept about what happened, i just hope they keep on producing music tht they are happy about :)

oh, about the picture you used above, forgive me if it doesn't bother me much. why? because whoever made that, he/she/they used RED line. Others might see the line as boundaries or dividing line between JYJ and TVXQ, but for me, it shows clearly that it's CASSIOPEIA who'll bring them back together

I'm suspicious since I became a Cassie, for they were always standing up in the same positions. If we want to make it proportional, more camera-friendly, why didn't they just put changmin and yunho both on each end, next to yunho is yoochun, and next to changmin is junsu, and jaejoong stays in the middle.
I want to quote one statement of an Indonesian singer (Maia Estianty) which I don't really adore until she came up with this smart line: better to quit when you're on top so people wouldn't stop talking about you
really, entertainment field isn't as innocent as what we think. this thing might have happened though we won't know the truth unless they reveal it themselves. until then, let's just enjoy the good music they keep producing ever since the lawsuit. because no matter what name they're using, or how many members involved, they're still THE BEST for me

Why have I not read this until now?! This is highly possible! I really wouldn't put it past them. but like the person below said, the only people who really know what's are the people involved. *sigh* We may never know the truth, and that bugs me -_- but WOW! I love how you think!! not only doesn't it make me feel better, lol, but it's entirely logical and I have crossed this thought in my mind several times. I just hope it's true, even to a certain extent. But it's not and they are just fight like greedy children over some stupid money than I'm with you. I might just have to fly to Korea and smack some sense into them. Seriously, what is more important than the AMAZING friendship they all shared?! This whole "fight" is ridiculous in my opinion. And RIGHT?! Stop putting your stupid red lines through their pictures! It breaks my heart and I'm sure there's too if any one of them saw or even have seen it. *tsk tsk*

You really got a twisted mind, are you aware of that?? Who would ever think what you thought??!! Anywho, no one knows the truth except the people involved... We may or may never know the truth,.. We can only assume things.. Things that want to make us happy or just to put the blame on someone. If it is meant to be, they will get back together and who knows, maybe then they'll be comfortable to share the truth with us. For now we just have to support them, they are humans afterall (and y as hell *sigh*) And ALWAYS KEEP THE FAITH!!! (Have anyone ever wondered why this is their motto...?! :) It has more meaning now than when they were all together. They might be trying to tell us something ;) )

here's my question..IF it was planned, then why did JYJ wrote the song "W" and why did Jae wrote the song "Nine" if they planned this? Also, Yunho lied that he didn't know about the lawsuit but look..you gotta understand why they didn't participate because HoMin's schedule was packed because of their drama and of course JYJ wanted to wait but no one knows the truth why JYJ sued without the other two..they aren't fighting like kids and either way, don't you think they miss each other? they wanted to leave together but the coincident is that you can tell that they are different now..Junsu is pouring out his sadness through his music, Jaejoong misses the other two because he change his twitter name to JYJ-5, Yoochun is having a hard life yet he misses the other two..look at HoMin, they don't seem like they don't miss JYJ, but they do..but they can't show it because they are the ones who know what is going on along with JYJ..here's my last question...if it's planned, why would Yunho, the leader, lied to the public?...he knows best that he has to lie because if people know about the truth..things will become more chaotic..

Wow! This makes a lot of sense to me~! Like JYJ expanding internationally and TVXQ just focusing on Japan and Korea! Like this just opened my mind completely!

This reminded me ... ( I know) of iCarly where Fred died but it was all a set up to gain fans. So... Relating to TVXQ and JYJ, I hope this is all true because I want to see my 5 BOYS rise again and gain their title as The Gods of The EAST~!

it is one of the possibility... anything cn hppen in business... it might be true they're split up or otherwise.. howver, if that's true, i'm admired SM for this great strtegy. I mean in a good way. It was risky to tke such strtgy. actually, i was thinking in the same way at 1st but i just wnt to see the next thng to hppen..

do u wnder, why JYJ sying always keep the faith, when evrythng around them looks complicated. n why JJ wrote JYJ from TVXQ.. i don't thnk it's 4 nothing. the thing that confused the most is, when they promise that when they r 5 then they r called dbsk. wht hppen now? they were called dbsk even they were 2..

If dbsk's split up is a prt of strtegy, what 'bout han kyung from suju? Do u think it's real?

If this is true then it is quite risky. Cause fans might get used to them being apart for so long. They would get used to HoMin and JYJ instead until slowly people wouldn't care anymore if they get back together or not. Do you think this is what happened to H.O.T. before?

IF THIS IS TRUE. I'd be relieved :)

IF THIS IS NOT TRUE. I'd slap a lot of I-can't-decide-who-to-support >..< yes, I meant those cassies who promised to support them as 5 and is now bothered of who to support, whether its JYJ or HoMin.

i don't know, it is risky.
it might not work, especially when i know fans who said that if they comeback as 5, they won't either side/together anymore.

i don't know, if dbsk really did this to themselves or us, playing with our hearts, i would be very disappointed, and maybe i might not love them like how i am loving them now.

to sme maybe it's business, but to them i hope it's dream.
to us, it's about hope and faith.
they might destroy it all.

it's quite stupid when they are doing this at this age, it's not easy for them to comeback as 5 when they are supposed to go into army within these few years.
IF they take turns to go in, how old are they planning to comeback as 5? that is if everything is planned.

hmmmm.
well, different views are everywhere and we can't rule out any possibilities because we can only guess.
