Fly to the Sky will be releasing a RECOLLECTION album on the 25th! The album will consist of old hits newly made that both Brian and Hwany “grew up on” and both guys will have their own solo track on the 10-track LP.

As you guys already know, Brian will be MCing again for this year’s Hollywood Bowl. FTTS will be having concerts in the US this summer and one of the stops includes LA in July! There will be a concert in either San Francisco or New York City, but dates have yet to be confirmed.

Brian will be starting a video folder where he will be answering questions from fans. This will allow people to see that he has a Myspace and Facebook account and will show fans a more personal side of him ^^ So if you have any questions for him, send him your questions and hopefully he’ll answer them! He will answer five fan questions per month on his video folder.

Hey my MYSPACE family,
Just wanted to let you all know that we will be releasing our newest album (which is a remake of hits from the past, excluding any Fly to the Sky past songs) on April 23, 2008. I really hope you all enjoy listening to the songs that Hwany and I grew up on… I gotta say that I was pretty nervous about this project because I did not want to mess up great hits from the past and make the original artists mad that we messed up their music…
We both have one solo track each on the album and making the album a 10-track LP. I really hope that this CD becomes a hit so that we can continue to make more music for you all to listen too.
Also, as you all know, we will be performing at the Hollywood Bowl on May 17th. We will also be in Japan in June and July… also, we should be having a Fly to the Sky concert in LA in July as well and another place in the States…I’m not sure if it’s gonna be in San Francisco or New York City. Once I find out, I will post it up here or on my FACEBOOK…
Anywho, I hope you guys are enjoying the awesome weather in where ever you are… The weather in Korea has been great for the past few days… God Bless you all and will be keeping you all posted…

Brian

P.S. Please make this album a HIT^^

Sunday, April 20, 2008

Hey ya’ll,
Sorry to to inform you that the release date for our “RECOLLECTION” album has been pushed to the 25th instead of the 23rd… I hope no one is upset because it’ll only be 2 days longer then expected…
Also, I am going to start a video folder that answers questions from all you fans… This way, you guys’ll know that this is really MY “MYSPACE/FACEBOOK” and ya’ll get to see more of a personal side of me where you all and I can connect… and of course, you’ll know that this is not some fake homepage…
So, what I’ll need you all to do is e-mail me questions that you REALLY are curious about, and I’ll choose 5 questions and answer them on video once a month. I will state your name and say your question before I give my answer…
Please, don’t get offended or mad that I didn’t answer a certain question. I might not come around to answer it quickly, but eventually I will answer as many as possible until you guys are sick and tired of seeing me…HAHA…
Anyways, this is gonna be something new and personal for me so let’s see how it ends up and if everyone likes my new idea, I’ll keep on doing it. If not, well, let’s just say it won’t be the end of the world… God Bless ya’ll and let’s keep things mature and serious… Nothing profound or rude… Thanks^^

To our lovely and valued ShenYuePop readers,

We’ve been very busy lately creating relationships with stars in the K-Pop industry. Our goal at ShenYuePop has always been to bring you the latest and greatest news, and what better way than to bring the news directly to you from major players in the industry?

Brian Joo is a very respectable and talented artist in the K-Pop industry, a legend if we may say so, and even with his grueling schedule, Brian found the time to provide us with an exclusive interview!

Well, without further ado, here’s our first exclusive celebrity interview (of many to come)!

Q1: It’s already the year 2008!! Do you have anything you want to do in this New Year?
A1: I wanna go into acting and hopefully into Hollywood to break into the US market… Just Like Yun Jin Park(from “LOST”) and James Kyson Lee(from “HEROES”)
(Lost and Heroes are two of his fav. tv shows!! Oops, he made a mistake in his answer…it’s Kim Yun Jin, not Park Yun Jin..hehe)

Q2: What are your New Year’s Resolutions, that’s if you have any?
A2: To get back into shape and build a healthier body… To be stronger emotionally because I am way too sensitive… and to spend more time with God and build-up my spiritual life…
(He likes to work out and is very religious. Brian…hope u finish reading that Bible of yours soon ^^)

Q3: We heard that Hwanhy’s coming out with a solo album. Is it true and can you give us any info at this time about it?! Even if it’s the slightest tidbits ^^
A3: Well, Hwany is going to be releasing a solo album but, since he’s busy with is drama “SaRangHae”, I don’t have an exact date when that will be released… sorry, for not being much help to you…
(yay!! Can’t wait for his album and drama ^^)

Q4: So you guys are having the “Ready to Launch” concert in Hawaii on February 9th. Why did you guys choose to have it in Hawaii instead of a place where there are more fans, like in LA?!
A4: Well, to be honest, Hawaii contacted us and wanted us to do a show there and I’ve never been there so I am looking forward to it… And it’s not that we’re not trying to do shows in other areas, but we just need time to talk to business people in those areas and we need to get sponsors… I hope you understand…
(fans, start booking your tickets and get ready to party!!)

Q5: Have you ever thought of crossing over to the US or just coming out with an English album?
A5: Plenty of times, but timing is always an issue… Cause we always end up doing other things to keep us from doing all the things we want to do… Hopefully, one day… I’ll get to live that dream of breaking out into the States
(Brian, never give up, hwaiting!!)

Q6: It’s almost your’s and Hwany’s birthday!! Is there anything special you guys want to receive or do?!
A6: I know this’ll sound like an obvious answer, but I really appreciate and love all the gifts our fans give us… even the little things… Although, I do know that I’m getting a few HUGE gifts this year, like a computer, monitor, speakers, and so on… I LOVE MY FANS~!
(Brian’s birthday is on the Jan. 10th and Hwany’s is on the 17th!! Now…I gotta find his address…haha…fans please don’t stalk him!!)

And Brian (if you’re reading this), THANK YOU SO MUCH for taking the time to reply back to us!! We really appreciated it!! I really can’t stop thanking you for this!! I love you!!

We though it was weird how Brian found that much time …
to upload all those pictures on his Cywold all of a sudden …
Now, seems like he has even more time on his hand!
The dude decided to now open a Facebook and delete his Myspace account!

The reason being we learned is because he also has private Myspace and Facebook accounts for his family and friends. Apparently, he’s on Facebook more than he’s on Myspace, hence the switch over to Facebook.

Seems like Mr. Joo just like us, got fed up with all those spam emails
on Myspace and decided to delete his account!
See! That’s why we never signed up for the Myspace for SHENYUEPOP in the first place!
But seriously someone get this man a job before he gets too bored
and decides next to delete himself off the internet o.O!

PS. Checkout Brian’s soon to be deleted myspace!

Brian’s Back in Korea! So these days we found ourself in a weird position of tracking down who is leaving and whose arriving to the country! … I believe we can be more of a help working for Seoul’s international airport than blogging … Aigoo chincha … it’s cuz we’ve never got any of those luck other people got! *tear*

So Yeah Mr. Joo is back and very unlikely of him .. he is busy uploading his cyworld!

Could this be the happiest day of my life?…..maybe not, but it’s darn close to it. Finally we will be able to hear the smooth sounds of hot Fany. All I can think about is will his album be all ballads or mixture of up tempos and ballads songs. But actually, I really don’t care because what ever he chooses to do I will be listening with a smile. There is no news on when the album will drop, so we will have to wait *sitting on hands anxiously*.

But first we check out Hwanhee in his upcoming drama “I Love You”, out in 2008.

It’s a story about a one night stand that leds to marriage because of a pregnancy. “It will portray the modern generation’s view on love and marriage as well as the responsibility of raising a child.” Ahn Jae Wook stars along side actress Seo Ji Hye as the newlywed couple.

Hwanhee plays the character of “Park Byung Ho, who was thoughtless, and threw away his child for a better income and life who later regrets this and learns to love.”

It looks like a fun drama with a little twist, so I will be looking out for it.

There recently was a request on the news of Brian from Fly to the Sky. He is indeed leaving his job of MC on Music Core…actually, he already left on the 7th but, his last performance is today (the 9th)! He is leaving because he is having a concert next month on the 30 & 31st! I’m not too sure if it’s a FTTS concert or his own concert, but it’s a concert tour in Asia. And from what I’m reading from the messages left by fans on his myspace, he is attending Andre Kim’s fashion show, which is today (Nov. 9th)! There will also be a repacked version No Limitations (the name of FTTS’ latest album) released soon, but I’m not too sure when…sorry!!

and for those who requested news on Sung Yubin and the cosmetics that Korean celebrities use, I’m still searching!! So, please be patient!! Thanks!!

This news is from July 23rd .. but we got so many stuff to cover all at once that till tonight never got a chance to make a post on this issue …

As you all know! …. two of the WonderGirls been MC in MBC [Show Music Core] with Brian Joo during the absence of SS501 HyunJoong! Although people started asking question after our news on HyunA’s departation from WonderGirls about the future of the show … but seems like before HyunA’s issue the other girl SoHee was injured during the movie filming, so the show’s been stopped temporary!

Wonder Girls member SoHee had injured her knee last month while she was shooting a movie “Warm Love is Good”. For this reason, her legs got even worse so she had to have another surgery done on her knee. This is going to be her second surgery on that knee (ShenYue: what have this JYP done to these girls?)

The specialists say that SoHee will have to rest for a period of 2 weeks or maybe even a month. This also lead to Hyuna and Sohee to leave their place of MBC’s Music program. So Brian and Kangin from super Junior will be taking the place of the MC for the time being.

The PD of [Show Music Core] expressed: “It is really a pity for Wonder Girls SoHee and HyunA but we have decided to replaced them. We will let KangIn who has rich hosting experience to temporary host it together with Brian.”

Mean while, JYP entertainment group has turned the song Irony into a hit song in Korea. The korean fans love Sohee’s cute actions and the fans say they will all miss her.

Wassup everyone!?

This is one of those bittersweet periods where life’s so busy with performances, tv shows, radio interviews, and MC stuff but at the same time, I barely have time to sleep, think, or even chill out for a day or two. It’s all good though cuz it’s all worth it in the end

I’m about to catch up on some rest tonight cuz Hwany and I are gonna be performing on Inki-gayo tomorrow (August 3rd). For any of you all in Japan, or actually in Osaka, we’ll be there over the weekend for a couple of Showcases on Sunday and Monday! Holla at us if we bump into each other somehow…

Wanna say thanks to everyone who’s picked up the 7th album…It’s def. cool knowing that there are fans all over the world in places like Brunei! Thailand! China! Taiwan! Japan! so many other countries too and of course the States and here in Korea! Without every single one of you, Hwany and I’d be out of a job

Got to update some pics for now…and since I’m carrying my camera around with me more often, hope to post up newer pics more frequently…

I’m out for now then…take care wherever this finds you…peace

In Him,

Brian

He also left a similar message on his always forum FLY HIGH (look for ID: MASTAJOO) … it was my first time checking his pics in his myspace .. so i donno what was he talking about by new pics .. cuz they were all new to me LOL … but what made me laugh hard was this one person left a message under one of his pics “Oppa you’re so handsome ^^ ” i was gonna throw up LOL!!! YA, people really say stuff on the dramas in real life to these guys? I donno maybe cuz i never had a Korean friend in real life so i donno the culture … but i highly think she was not Korean! I guess what i’m trying to say is fanatics fans has really been part of the dramas to me this whole time too! Do i make any sense?
