(050723) in LOVE LETTER thread doesn't seem to be the rite one bcos it doesn't hv CY...DO U HAVE THESE 2 EPISODES...would u kindly upload it 4 me. oh yes, i hv the HAPPY SHARES one...they r cute n funny !!!

Hi babysweet.. i am currently downloading the LL s2 16/7/05 and 23/07/05 from iyagi's clubbox.. i dun mind to help u but the clubbox speed is sooo slow.. i dunno whether it has finished or not.. maybe i can give u the clubbox address when i go back home coz i dunno how to upload to any of the format available i.e. megaupload or sendspace.. one more thing, i dun have the subs of this 2 epis

hi atreyu112 thanx 4 yur help..i doesn't matter if there's no sub...i actually alredi dwnloaded those 2 eps from LL thread...they wrote that the guestlist have CY, JJ, MC MONG, ANDY...but after dwnloading 16/7/05 and 23/07/05 to watch i find there's no CY in it????? WHY???? did i dwnload the wrong date/ep? which is the correct ep where there is JUNJIN + CHAE YEON?

I was wondering if there was a translation of CY's 2nd album anywhere?... ...

I hope now she smiles because she is trully happy
it is sad to think she smiles because it's like a natural reflex

so, does it mean in japan they treat their artists worse?



atreyu, we don't want to understand those ppl
cuz they just don't make any senses to us jk!



the whole "I hate her becuz she stole KJK from eunhye's" is just S-T-U-P-I-D!

yeah, even PJA got it..
I'm not saying this becuz I'm a cy's fans.. I like PJA but I don't think her song is that good
well, lots of ppl must have think differently *shrug*

Omy! I didn't know Chaeyeon has suffered that much hardship in Japan, coz when I watched her videos with her group Ultracats and her videos in some shows in Japan, she really has this smile on her face and she seems so happy. Now, I know the reason. I felt sad for Chae Yeon unnie but I'm so glad that she surpassed all those hardships she experienced and is now having a wonderful career.

I don’t understand those people who attacked her just with that KJG incident on xman quite a long time ago. But I'm glad that there were still people who were open-minded enough to understand chaeyeon. Other’s just made things so serious when in fact it’s just for a show, and that they are actually all friends off screen. I hope they would realized that. When I saw the interview of Chae Yeon unnie in Yashimmanman, I actually cried, it seems that I felt her pain from those people who attacked her verbally. Man, celebrities are normal person too that can be hurt. And I just don’t think chaeyeon unnie deserved to be hurt like that, because chaeyeon is such a genuine person.

Oh, I can’t believe chaeyeon unnie didn’t get nominated in Mkmf, even in one of the categories? T___T I’m sad. They didn’t even consider her appearances in xman and all her performances for this year with her 3rd album. I thought I could see Chaeyeon again. I missed her already. T___T


Anyways, Chae Yeon fighting!!! And oh.. Belated Happy Hallooween guys.

Her debut in japan did make her grow stronger then.. but it has left her some side effects i guess..
eventhough vivian had a hard time, but she did make it big as a taiwanese to debut in japan. she even sang a song with kazuma for gundam series...
but our poor cy.. TT_TT
i hope tat ppl will try to understand how hard it has been for her to go through all those..
some celebrities din even went thru hard times and they gain popularity and recognition straight away..
life is unfair i guess.. *sigh*
anyway, i wish her all the best!! and i wish to see her soon on TV!!!!! T_T i miss her soo much TT-TT
tat award thingy, as much as i'm upset, but i can't do anything about it T_T coz i got no korean ID to vote for her... *sigh* oooOOoooo..i wish tat lee soo young will win~~ ahah XD i love GRACE tat song.. cant help it.. ahahahah XD =X

Yeah~ HAPPY HALLOWWEEEEEENNNN to ya'll~~~~ =)
its Jack Skellington time!!!!! ahahahahah XD

Star Fashion

So Pretty as always.

Remember the last article I translated... about how CY's entertainment company decided that they want to put more money and effort into into CY's fourth album.... I want to nag at all the executives in her entertainment company! If they had focused on her third album from the beginning, than maybe she would have been nominated right now!!

Well... whats done is done. Her third album was pretty good though, but I guess not enough for her to be nominated. At least we know that her fourth album will be really great and her company will invest more on her this time around!



I think that the entertainment industry in Japan is a lot harsher because its a bigger country, therefore it has more competition..... I'm not sure if Japane treats their artists worse, but back when CY debuted in Japan, there was a lot of discrimination against Korean Artists and it was really hard for them to become successful there. This was before the Hallyu wave, and before well-promoted k-artists, like Boa debuted. You have to also remember that Boa didn't get famous on her own.... Lee Soo Man, who was the CEO of Sm ent. at the time, almosted filed for bankruptcy because he spent the almost all of their company money in Japan, using it to promote Boa.... I think Boa is really talented and all, but I don't think she would be were she is today, if SM didn't promote her like that.... Many Japanese Investors have criticized Boa, saying that it would be pretty hard to not get famous with the amount of promotion money that spend on her.

I think personally think that if CY debuted solo in Japan, without those weird looking old men in Ultra cats, and she got the promotion she needed.... I can't say if she'd be really famous, cuz I don't really know what Japanese peoples styles and their tastes in what kind of artists they like... but I think CY could have gone somewhere....

KHD's wedding is on November 12. I can't wait to see Chaeyeon unnie. She will probably be there.

^ Your right!!! CY would definitely be there, since they are good friends!!! Thanks also for the the pretty pictures of Cy... she looks great, and I love her clothes, especially the last one! I would have mentioned it on my last post, but I didn't actually see your pictures untill after my post... we must have posted around the same time!


Sorry.. I know this is off topic, but did anyone here buy the "I heart Soompi" shirt??? It looks cute, but I heard its really small, so I should get one size up? If anyone here bought it.... how small is it? Cuz I don't want it too be too small for me, but I want it to be fit well on me... not all lose, if you know what I mean....

i love this pic the most.. she look sooo sweeeeettt!!.. did u guys notice or not that she wore the same outfit that SangMI (seo Ji hye) wore in Over the rainbow and of course, CY looked better - HOT and cute in this ..

채연, 활동 전면 중단 "내년 4집목표 맹연습"


　섹시 가수 채연이 대외 활동을 전면 중단하고 새 앨범 작업에 들어갔다.

　채연은 내년 초 4집 발표를 목표로 최근 보컬 트레이닝과 안무 연습, 웨이트 트레이닝에 열중하고 있다. 3집 활동이 끝난 이후에도 계속 출연하던 'X맨'도 지난 25일 녹화를 끝으로 휴업을 선언했다.


　당초 채연의 새 앨범은 11월 말에 선보일 예정이었지만 앨범의 완성도를 높이기 위해 2~3개월 연기한 상태.


　4집에는 스타 제조기 김창환 사단이 대거 투입돼 다시 한번 '채연표' 댄스 음악의 전성기를 열 전망이다. 여기에 그 동안 매 앨범마다 선보인 파격적인 댄스를 한 단계 업그레이드 시켜 더욱 강력한 비주얼을 선보인다는 계획.


　이번 휴식 기간 중에는 고질병이 되어버린 발목 부상도 확실히 치료를 받을 예정이다. 다행히 상태가 많이 좋아졌지만 3집 활동때에도 무리한 스케줄을 소화하면 통증을 호소한 바 있어 몸 만들기에 우선 순위를 부여했다.


　한편, 채연은 본격적인 앨범 준비와 함께 최근 살이 부쩍 빠진 모습을 보여, 이번 앨범에 임하는 각오를 간접 증명하고 있다. < 이정혁 기자>





I just found this article on naver....

I can read basic Korean, but I'm not good enough to translate this.... there are many korean words there, that I don't fully understand.... help anyone?

i never knew that it was that tough in Japan... I really feel sad for her. Even though she was told to smile, but i think it's a good thing tho. We want to see her smile, don't we? If she didn't smile this much, i think it would be more negative comments about her.

about 3rd album, i like it more than 2nd, but it wasn't promoted enough. So many nice songs in there!!! Hopefully, she will still go to those award nights in late december.

wwwa, did u buy her album or u downloaded it? i want to download her song too..

I misss CY!!! but i cant wait to hear her next album. hehhee. i always thought KHD and CY were the cutest together on xman

hihi... im veri new to tis forum... hv been viewin for afew days under chae yeon's threads.... Finally can post liao~ can any1 tell me which episode is tis on Xman? i like giyeon alot... hehe... they r reali soooo cutezzz.... n chae yeon is juz tooooo pretty


thanks~

That .gif is really cute. It's from Xman #57, Episode 125-126, 26.03.2006-02.04.2006. I also saw these episodes floating around in youtube.


Shiela8917, how do you manage to always find so many pictures of our Chae Yeon? My favorite picture is the last one. That whole outfit just ... works. Thanks for uploading those pictures.


It's sad to know that Chae Yeon suffered so much in Japan. One of the worst to me was accepting the fact that you probably tried your best and failed. But I'm proud of Chae Yeon for not letting that get her down. Although she failed in Japan, her failure didn't go to waste. She didn't give up. She got back on her feet and made it in Korea. Our unnie used past experiences to create for herself a successful future. And for that I'm very proud of her.
I think one of Chae Yeon's best attribute is that she has can let her true personality shine through the camera. I believe that other celebs have wonderful personality as well, but they lack the ability to let it shine through. Although Chae Yeon isn't the best singer, I have to agree that she does have the x factor.

And like everyone, I'm not too happy that Chae Yeon didn't get nominated for the award. The award usually focuses on what's popular now. But if we know this, Chae Yeon knows this as well. Knowing this, I thought to myself, this is probably why most artists don't like releasing their album at the beginning of the year and release it around Sept-October. At first I thought it was strange that Chae Yeon keeps on releasing her albums at the beginning of the year (like this 4th album too). But I believe it's cause since artists don't like releasing their album after the awards, Chae Yeon would get less competition when she does release it. That's also a factor into why her album sales are pretty high. So it's a trade-off, not getting awards but making more money and having more album sales. (These are all just IMO)

I'm looking forward to KHD's wedding, hopefully there would be a clip of Chae Yeon at the wedding on Youtube.

Yeah! can't wait to see her again!!
and thanks for the pics, sheila! she looks soo gorgeouss!!
I think she also looks thinner..



LOL. I saw a person wearing it before, it is cute
where do they sell it? here in the soompi forum?



is seo ji hye the girl that is going to be the lead in goong?



me too! I love how KHD is with her
to me, they are like brother and sister

i never like a korean, or any female singer before (but i love a lot of male singers)...and chae yeon is actually the first female singer i ever obsessed to...lol, when i first heard about chae yeon, i heard that she's only pretty with make-up...but then i saw her, i don't really think so. Usually, when i look at someone with make-up...i always can tell if that person is a true beauty without the make-up...And I know Chae Yeon is a true beauty.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9cG6FkRURmc <--- and after seeing that, i know I am right. lol

I surf and read mostly through all 181 pages in this thread* (yeah, i don't have a life), I love it how you guys matchmake for Chae Yeon. lol, i think every guys are cute with her, but i love CHae Yeon with FTTS the best. I'm happy to know that they are so close.

Anyways...i think those hardship she had gone through in Japan has really made her such a wonderful person today. I'm glad to see her getting her dream come true.

Chae Yeon, fighting!

181 pages!?! wow!!! how long did it take you? I can't do that
That's so true! chae yeon is so cute without make up ^^

Yep, most of us love match making bussiness

I want more chaeyeon!!! i feel like dying slowly... no new chaeyeon videos

it's basically saying what we already know..that her 4th album was planned to be released i november but got pushed back 2-3 months in order to build anticipation..on her time off she is going to do vocal training, dance training, and weight training..also during her break she will also seek full treatment of her ankle that she hurt during her 3rd album activities. her 4th album will of course be a dance album but they are hoping to "upgrade" her dancing concept as of now, she has noticably lost a lot of weight and so it seems that she and her company are seriously preparing for her next year's activities...

i can't wait! i miss her on shows already..but still i want her to come back maybe around next spring or summer because her albums come out back to back and people who are not fans can get sick of her..and i dont want other artists to judge her like shes desperate or has no other things to do while everyone else is going overseas and acting, mcing, radio...all that stuff..so please unnie take your time! we'll wait! but not too long pleaseeeeeee

yeah she does has a beautiful smile..anyone notice that in most of her perfs she'd smile and wink to the camera...i always smile at that..shes a great performer

EDIT Hey paigehk, welcome to the Chae Yeon thread. When i started writing this post, i was supposed to be right after you so i didn't bother quoting.





Welcome to the Chae Yeon thread. Lol, you're like me. When I first came here, I dedicated myself to reading all the pages in this thread too. (I, too, have no life) I love Chae Yeon with FTTS, but I love MinChae the best. If only they would stop flirting with each other and couple up *sigh*. I just wish our unnie can come back soon so the matchmaking business can start back up.

haha..basically two days...and i did save a bunch of her pictures. I love her smile...it's like an angel's

i love him with FTTS too, especially hwanhee.. but my top CY couple is with Lee Seung Gi..

wahahah XD i'm so glad tat they showed her during tat xman special... like a flashback and those 10 stars which brought highlights to the show =) she is one of 'em =) this is sooo coooooll~~~

chae yeon fighting!!!!!

oh well. i LOVE CY with FTTS & CY with MIN WOO the Best

and by chance...does anyone know any fanfix of Chae Yeon?

i never see Fany's emotion with anygirls before
or is it just how he is?
i want to see CY and Fany couple

except for Chae Yeon haha I would love it if they really became a real couple. I wouldn't mind any of the pairings since unnie looks great with anyone <3


I'm so mad CY didn't get nominated for anything

yes...i TOTALLY AGREE with the FANY+CY coupling.

Thanks for the translations!!
I am going to look forward to her next album!!

I'm sooo mad.... it looks like CY isn't going to be nominated in any of the awards shows..... it sucks, how could she not be nominated in the popularity award?? I think her male fans in Korea are not devoted enough to her.
She needs for female fans like us, I guess!

Thanks for the translations too.
LOL... I totally agree with you. Chae Yeon should have at least been nominated for the popularity award. Sigh... hopefully next year is a better year for her. Her company sooooooo should have focused on her albums from the start.

Hope you guys don't mind me chiming in...

I'm a Kim Jong Kook fan and I have to admit the first time I knew of Chae Yeon was through X-man.
First time I saw CY..didn't think too much of her.. just though she was pretty. Then after Xman#50 I got to know the story of CY winning the Star Date with Turbo. Her confession to KJK touched me..she seemed like a very nice and sincere person.
Then after that I saw the YashimManMan episode where CY cried when she was telling everyone about the letter she received from a KJK fan. I cried during that YSMM segment. I never imagined that she had to go through such a bad experience but thankfully the letter lifted her spirits. I think I began to like her after watching that YSMM episode.
She even did 1 more thing that made this KJK fan like her even more... the X-man dance tribute. It was nice and thoughtful of her to make sure the public doesn't forget KJK. Hats off to Chae Yeon for being such a classy gal.

Anyway..I think I talked too much already.. I want to say what a great person she is and I wish her all the best with her career. I think I'll try to follow her career from now on. Hope you guys can help...

o-cha, it's very nice to hear from a Kim Jong Kook fan .. thx for yr comments~~~ im glad u start to notice Chae Yeon ~~~

im very happy to heard about this
people at Youtube so mean, they alway say CY repeat the KJK's event all the time but she is not the once who starts.

i jsut watch the Xman highlight Special - Chae Yeon compilation...and of course i did read the comments...those people are kinda mean...they kept bringing up the things of KJK and YEH...(it really annoyed me)
anyways...after seeing the xman special...i miss her a lot. I hope she can come back soon, so that i can see her every week....lol

o-cha, it's really really nice of you to think that way
I loved everything you've said <3

welcome paigehk!
YES! matchmaking is a veryyy important business here in chae yeon's thread!
I love my BRIYEOn couple!!

haha we're such cy-crazy matchmakers for her here.. BriYeon is my favourite though (as seen in my sette).. o_o her with LSG all the time annoys me and the her with Tei irks me a bit too because Tei err never really does anything but stand very still, sing a bit sometimes for her, and go .. its just a mild attraction there.. I just like her with anyone else besides them xD and the most with Brian =]

wishing her the best of luck for her fourth album!! FIGHTING

hey thanks a lot for the clip. Although i don't understand a thing...but it's good enough to see them, esp Chae Yeon. She is very cheerful as always

Thanks for the warm reception... Just thought I'll chime in with my impression on CY.
I know some people have a bad impression on Chae Yeon and I think it's totally unjustified.
She is preparing for her 4th album,right? Anobody knows when she is expecting to release it? Sorry if it's been asked before...

I see you guys are busy matchmaking CY,huh? hehehe... she's pretty so I'm sure she looks great with just about anybody. If not because of Yoon Eun Hye, I'd probably even support KJK-CY..hehehe.

^ Her 4th album is going to released early next year.... probably around February or March.
