Hallyu Expo Talk - Translations
I've personally asked the translator for permission to post the translations here, so unless she says okay, please keep this within Soompi? Thanks ^^;

Female host: Dong Bang Shin Gi is always so handsome. Standing is very tiresome!

(everyone sits down)

Male host: Xiah Junsu, you are a bit too handsome. You are all envious that I get to sit next to Junsu aren't you? Today, we are going to have a simple chat with Dong Bang Shin Gi for all the audience members who have come. All right, I know. We are going to do a simple talk...

Female host: called the "Catch a person" talk

Male host: We are going to pose a question, and you guys are going to decide who amongst the five of you is most suitable...

Female host: We have prepared some dolls that the workers will bring out in a moment. Each doll has a name written on it...

(person comes out and hands Winnie the Pooh plushies to the boys)

...please choose the doll that has your name written on it.

Male host: The question that we will mention, if you think any member particularly suits it

Female host: If any member is most suitable,

Male host: you just have to pile all of your dolls on him.

Female host: yeah, just give them all to him.

Male host: If you don't want to give it away, you are allowed to hold onto it yourself.

Female host: The person with the most dolls should be the one who is most suited to the question.

(Notice YooSu and their bears... xD)

Male host: (speaks in Japanese, just translating everything that was said before.)

Female host: Alright, let's give the first question: Korea's "pretty boy" (literally: Pretty flower boy) representative - Dong Bang Shin Gi. However, when one takes a closer look, this person is not like a "pretty boy", rather, he is more like a "pretty girl" (literally: Pretty flower girl xD) The most feminine member is...

Male host: (Translates everything into Japanese)

Hosts: 1, 2, 3!

(Everybody hands their bears to Jaejoong. xD)

Female host: Youngwoong Jaejoong, who possesses an incredibly charismatic gaze.

Male host: Youngwoong Jaejoong, the amazing hero.

Female host: That's rather unexpected. Is he really that feminine?

(notice how Yunho looks like he's about to say something xD)

Male host: Please talk a bit about it

Jaejoong: Actually, I rather like cooking

Male host: (translates)

Jaejoong: and my cooking is pretty good too, so maybe that's why. To put it more negatively, I am rather short-tempered. In a more positive light, I am rather careful and perceptive. Therefore, that's why they think this way.

Male host: but to tell the truth, out of all of the members, you have the most powerful gaze. Youngwoong Jaejoong, send out your powerful gaze! 1, 2, 3...

(Jaejoong attempts the gaze, but then looks rather embarrassed.)

Male host: He is Yoongwoong Jaejoong, but he will still lose to Micky Yoochun's gaze. Micky, give us a gaze...

(Yoochun fails xD)

...too cute! Youngwoong Jaejoong, apart from yourself, the person you think is most like a man in the group is...

Female host: Ah, the most masculine member is...

Jaejoong: The most masculine member is...actually, every member is very masculine, but the one who is the most masculine is Yunho.

Male host: (translates)

Female host: Do you agree?

Yunho: Well, first of all, about him thinking this way, I am very thankful and will continue to work hard.

Male host: (translates) Alright, the next question:

Female host: please take your own dolls back

Male host: Compared with the other members, the member with the oldest mental age is... the one you would consider a "little big person" is... (translates) who is it? 1, 2, 3...

(everyone piles their dolls on Changmin)

what is going on? Choikang Changmin

Changmin: Yeah, I am a "little big person". No matter what, I am the youngest

Female host: yeah, out of the five members, you are the youngest

Changmin: So that's why, when compared with my actual age, my mental age may seem a bit bigger.

Male host: (translates)

Yunho: Our Changmin, thinks rather deeply. When we go to the sauna, all five of us have an air of arrogance, and have the patient type of personality. We would wait for others to first leave the sauna room, but we are still the very tolerant type. Changmin is the youngest, but he is still like "ah this is very good"

Female host: Perhaps, he rather enjoys things that are good for the body?

Jaejoong: His favourite are healthy medicines (T/N: This is not quite an accurate translation, but I'm not sure how else to put it. xD It's basically traditional type medicine. Not the stuff you'd find in the local pharmacy store.)

Male host: Oh, so you like "Korean medicine".

Yunho: Say that Jaejoong ate the healthy medicine and there is some left. Changmin would say, "Hyung won't eat it right? Then I'll eat it, because it's good for the body." He really cares about his body.

Jaejoong: Typically, when sick, Changmin, when the other members are sick, he would eat two helpings of the medicine himself

Male host: You should also take care of your hyung!

Changmin: I also want...

Male host: Too honest!

Female host: The youngest actually cares most about his health. Can you recommend something that is good for the body?

Male host: (translates)

Changmin: There is really a lot of food that is good for the body, but the most important thing is still to eat at the right time and get enough sleep.

Male host: (translates)

Female host: He really is a "little big person"

Male host: Alright, then the next question:

Female host: Out of the members, the one who is the best at "enjoying life" no...actually, the most "stingy" person is...

Male host: (translates) who is it? 1, 2, 3!

(Everybody passes their bears to Junsu)

Xiah Junsu. He doesn't really look like it.

Female host: Yeah, he really doesn't look it

Junsu: Not stingy! It's "good at enjoying life"!

Male host: (translates)

Yunho: He's good at enjoying life. Junsu's specialty is that he will not spend money first. He will wait and wait and wait, it will eventually be his turn. At this time, he will pretend that he doesn't mean it and is confused. A while later, he will wait again. Waiting and waiting, he will find that the atmosphere has become a little strange "If I fail to pay the bill again this time, I will be in danger." At that time, he will say, "Hyung, this time, I will pay the bill." but because of all of the confusion, he will still wait until the next time. Actually, in his heart, he really wants to pay the bill, but he is rather good at using the group atmosphere.

Male host: If he is good at using this kind of group atmosphere, then apart from the "EQ" "IQ" that we always speak of, there is also his "JQ"

Female host: Then since it's "good at enjoying life", can you give us some secrets on how to "enjoy life"?

Male host: Tell the truth, how much money have you earned? I am really curious.

Junsu: I let my mom take care of all of my money

Yunho: but after earning money, the one who will spend the most all at once is also Junsu.

Male host: Ah, so that's how it is. Spending a little bit at a time, no matter how many times you do it, it's still not very noticeable, so why not spend a lot all at once

Changmin: It's just that this one time of spending a lot of money is rare.

Male host: You are too honest. About this, what do you think Junsu?

Junsu: It is indeed the truth.

Female host: So you admit it

Junsu: Yeah, I admit it.

Male host: This group of people is really too honest

Female host: It seems that for these questions, everybody got picked, one after another.

Male host: Jaejoong, Yunho, it seems like it... Why do we ask such unnecessary questions?

Female host: So everyone got chosen one after another

Male host: There is something I'm rather curious about here. I heard that between the members, the reason why you are so close and harmonious is because you often have arguments. What do you think? Xiah Junsu?

Junsu: If according to what you are saying, we often argue, but it is all joking around.

Male host: Micky Yoochun is smiling

Junsu: It is all fooling around, but we like to periodically tease just one person

Female host: You are not school children anymore, but you still like to gang up against one person? Who is the most unwilling?

Junsu: It would often be Youngwoong-hyung.

Male host: (translates)

Yunho: Speaking of which, there is one thing that can show that we are very close. During our activities in Japan, wanting to strengthen our group spirit, we started a game called "one eye". All five of us would pick up our blankets and then examine each other's eyes. We would then reach for one person and hit him.

Male host: (translates)

Yunho: It's this type of game, but usually, we take turns. I am the leader in the group, so at first, I wouldn't be chosen. We would look at each other's eyes...but in the end, typically the one who everyone reaches for would be able to sense the others reaching for him, but I didn't think that it would actually be me. The members typically don't move at first. It's because of Jaejoong's meaningful glance, and then all of a sudden, because I don't have enough strength, so I turned off the light. I don't know if it's because there is a lot of resentment against me, but there is one member who kept on holding down my legs, trying to pull off my underwear

Male host: I understand. If you continue, I am afraid we won't be able to control the situation. Please once again give a round of applause for our honest warriors. Because of the time, our five warriors of Dong Bang Shin Gi will have to (T/N: then it cuts off... but it's probably just "say goodbye" at the end anyways. xD)
