Just feel wanted to share The Story Of 1000 Days.

I’m sure there are some of you already read this… and here are just some highlighted statements from their (JYJ) own mouth that had riled up my emotion a little/lot. It made me understand them more now, and the real stressfulness they were in. I’d shed tears when read those words of their true feeling at that time.

And the story under ‘Don’t invite JYJ?!’ had answering my wandering thought of why they seemed prone in facing the unexpected cancellation to be broadcasting.

Well, I feel like I was reading a fiction. Also, I've just knew the fact of Cjes’s CEO even sold his assets without JYJ know, just to allow this trio make a comeback. No wonder, they trust this man so much, even bought him a car after they earned their first profit. And also the reason of why Yoochun and Jaejoong had even kept their distance from the people, who approached them with investment money. It was understandable that they would not trust anyone so easily anymore, after what had happened at the time.

Back at those times, in 2009…the moment the three of them filed a lawsuit against their former company.

“I was scared at how focused the media were on our situation. I was scared to leave my house, even though I had done nothing wrong. The news on TV would show blurred pictures of our parents. The amount of stress I felt increased by the day because it felt like we were being treated like felons. Even my hair started falling out.” – Junsu

“There were other companies that offered us large amounts in down payment fees, but money wasn’t what we were after. The most important thing to us was carrying out our activities freely.” -Yoochun

“We decided that rather than money, we wanted to work with a company that could guarantee us freedom.” –Junsu

When they had received news of their win, Kim Junsu was taking a shower. Hearing the news of their lawsuit victory from CEO Baek Chang Joo, Kim Jaejoong called out “Junsu!” in a loud voice.

“I could tell ‘Ah! We won,’ just from Jaejoong’s voice. I could never find the words to describe the joy I felt then. I left the shower on and cried a lot. My father didn’t use to smoke, but he started smoking a lot when the lawsuit began. He said that he’d stop when the lawsuit was over, and he really did.”  -Junsu

With the joy that made them feel like they had everything in the world, they stepped forward and faced their new challenge.

When they could have never imagined that their Tokyo Dome performance in 2010, would be their last in Japan.

“I was so sorry to our fans. I was even more sorry that we couldn’t tell them that the five of us couldn’t be together anymore. When I was walking towards our fans, the tears wouldn’t stop flowing from my eyes. I still can’t forget that moment. My singing was filled with my gratitude and apologies, but I never knew that would be our last concert… The reason why I tweeted often in Japanese was because there were so many fans in Japan who were waiting for us. I feel so bad that I can’t even ask them to wait for us anymore , but I’m always longing to meet them again.” -Jaejoong

“Our future didn’t seem bleak because I had my members by my side. We always said to each other, ‘If this doesn’t work out, let’s move to the countryside and become farmers.’ There were so many restrictions and obstacles in our way, and they’re still there, but we have our own fenced-off safe area. We have each other, and we’re not alone. That’s why I’m not afraid.” –Jaejoong

So many things revealed in one article, I can’t summarize it all. It’s just a must read. Just now, I’ve thought if I were in their situation, can I endure it like they did? Or just give up in the half way…

I hope no one misunderstood this post. I’m not JYJ stans or vice versa. Just wanted to pointed out the thing that makes me proud of them, are their valor and endurance. SAME goes to Homin. They endure all the things and keep going... And for JYJ, even there were large-scale entertainment agencies who tried to reel them in with down payments of hundreds of millions of Won, they didn’t rush into things. As that (money) wasn’t what they wanted, they still rooted with their first goal to searching for their long dream. Now, they got that opportunity to do what they dream of doing since long.

I’ve said enough about this trio, and of course I know, the other TWO were feeling hurt too back then. As much as I wanted them back as five, but their happiness comes first.  So now, I’ll just support them as long as they’re happy in what they’re doing now. I just don’t want to put a high hope. But IF one day they do reunite, then, that would be the happiest thing ever to me.
