However, on this day at Shinjuku station, around 5000 people came to watch BEAST’s guerrilla concert and the performance ended successfully. As BEAST started singing “Bad Girl” the fans started singing along to the song, the place resembling a BEAST concert.

Yang Yoseob said “I only started to relax after I saw people gathering. I was so thankful to the Japanese fans who came to watch the sudden concert” and “I think I gained more confidence for the Japanese promotions and tour performances through this performance” he stated with energy.

‘Fiction is not a hook song, it’s a hit song that will climb it’s way up’

One of the BEAST member who helped through the songs in the first album is Yong Junhyung. The 5th track ‘Freeze’ is one of the work of Yong Junhyung in his studying of composing. It is more meaningful since Yong Junhyung wrote it himself. "When an unknown rapper wrote the lyrics, we become too pride and they might get wounded" "I started doing activities with undergrounds and made friends with the underground rappers". Yong Junhyung also added "While the other members have their own personal activities, I was working at the recording studio, day and night" "I want to show something more than a fresh performance from this album".

“At first, the song was first heard by the CEO (Hong Seuhong, representative of Cube Entertainment) and his reaction was ‘What is this’. I panicked. Later Shinsadong Tiger hyung said ‘I have received a lot of reactions like that before’ and also added ‘Foolish people die, don’t panic’. I am determined to get my songs on the album, so the recordings, I’ve been doing my own directing. I don’t want the other members to bother me so I told them ‘Don’t bother me, I want some peace’. And so I got that peace."

Yong Junhyung pointed that he wants to work with FT Island singer, Lee Hongki. They want to see the combination of the band’s music. Yong Junhyung with Super Junior Kim Heechul, Supreme Team Simon D (SamD), FT Island Lee Hongki and Choi Jonghun sometimes together went for the ‘Chocoball’ social gathering.

BEAST’s earning principles are ‘to divide equally among the six’ but Yong Junhyung’s is separated from the rest. He said “The income is different every month. I set aside some money neatly for my parents. Firstly, I want to own my own recording studio and the money I get, I plan to buy a house for my parents. Maknae Son Dongwoon added “I want to buy my dad a new car” with a smile.

Son Dongwoon said “We are very busy with activities and whenever times got hard, I always think that ‘I have to be a good singer’” “If given a break, I want to go to on a one-week vacation to Jeju Island”.

[NEWS] Lee Kikwang “Does BEAST get jealous of the different popularity levels between members?”


BEAST has risen as one of the best male idol groups through their first official album “Fiction&Fact”. They swept 1st place on cable and public broadcasting music shows, achieving triple crowns. They have also been receiving many love calls from variety shows.

The individual members’ activities are that pronounced. Lee Kikwang is an MC on KBS2TV “WinWin” while Yoon Doojoon is an actor in MBC “All My Love”. Yang Yoseob as the team’s lead vocal, showed off his vocals in KBS 2TV “Freedom Declaration – Immortal Classics 2”

Since each member has prominent individual activities, there can only be a division between the more popular members and less popular members. With this, there are suspicions of awkwardness and conflict between members. If you follow the unconfirmed rumours, in one idol group, there are conflicts within the group because of popularity level differences.

However BEAST was wise. Before any conflicts came up, they resolved things through conversation. Lee Kikwang said “As BEAST gets more popular, there are more individual member activities and I believe there can be members who are more popular and less popular. Because we are human, I feel that we can get jealous and upset because of this. So, beforehand, we decided ‘Let’s not get jealous, upset or fight because of popularity difference.” You cannot help but think that, for male idols who are in their early 20s, they’re very thoughtful.

In real life, BEAST prevents conflicts and shares ideas through many conversations. Because of this, they can only have close relationships with each other. Through this they have good team work and have successfully gained a lot of popularity.


BEAST is now concluding their promotions in Korea and is planning to promote in Japan.

An album that came out after 1 year... You didn't change even during 1 year and you waited, so I am very thankful~
It's not just 1 or 2 things that I'm really thankful for......

And you know our motto is "only instead of best"!! (There aren't any people who didn't know that, right? ã…‹ã…‹)
Our goal was to become the only instead of the best, so I believe that with this album, we showed our only colors according to our team's motto!!

Idol group BEAST's second single 'Bad Girl' Japanese tops No. 1 in ringtone chart.

Even before the full album is released to the public, climbing as No. 1 in ringtone charts, the popularity of the album sales is related to it's numerical evaluation.

[BLOG] Son IlRak's Cyworld Update @beastdw



This day, what's happening?
No matter how I think, fans, celebrities and coordinators, and staff are not sure of relationships so they cannot really understand the situation. I think this is what that is happening.^^

As you know, Celebrities lives are surrounded by managers and staff.
To them, managers and staff are like family and friends.

Then I watched them protecting themselves, they are caring managers and staff who i think we should appreciate. Sometimes they are better than flesh and blood if you didn't even consider.

The continuos tension at the end of a broadcast an performance, even when they are seated together with their parents, appreciation will still be directed to the effusive managers and staff. Of course, I have often seen this at broadcast stations too.

Their families and friends, little more than I want to thank them, an encouraging scene changing to jealousy, blaming, this is what a tree is called~~~
No matter how mindless some young fans are an how the reckless like speak~~~

Ahem~~~
It is not really what they're thinking.

And they speak a little differently but~~~
Everyone try to ponder about it for once.

To everyone, if you are getting a great girlfriend~~~
In the sight of people~~~
And when there are cameras in public places, would you dare to show any affection?
I suppose no one but a fool would do that.

The root of these rumors are silly, let's all clarify it~~~
But following some polarity facing crooked fans with their ridiculous Fiction, let's just ignore the situation of just leave. That too, is hard.

Hmph this kind of people~~~
If they fall into situation, they won't go on a rampage crying, right?^^

This is what I say.
The people in our country all feel that it would be good to have a generous amount of adult times in their hearts.^^
Adult times~~~
Bbasya~~~
Up till now, my co-star has been complaining.
