[NEWS @allkpop] 101201 JYJ’s Seoul concert had a mammoth economic impact

Through JYJ’s ‘Worldwide Concert in Seoul’, held recently on November 27th and 28th, the trio once again showcased their popularity among international fans, and proved why they are considered the central axis of the Hallyu Wave.

A total of 3000 international fans flew into Korea to watch the show, including fans from Japan, China, Taiwan, and Malaysia, as well as those in America and Europe. Due to this, flight agencies were able to see a visible bump up in sales for November 2010.

One magazine company in the tourism industry stated before JYJ’s concert, “2143 of JYJ’s Japanese tourists will fly into Korea in November, with JYJ’s Korean concerts on the 27th and 28th a huge influence on this.” Another representative of a tourist agency expressed, “Of the 4,113 tourists our company is serving, 2,500 are tourists who came to watch JYJ’s concert.”

A horde of fans gathered at the Jamsil Olympic Stadium five hours before the concert even began. The concert venue transformed into a global festival, where fans from Japan, China, Thailand, thePhilippines, America, England, and Germany were able to meet.

“The number of tourists entering Korea made a great jump upwards because of this concert. Through this, JYJ have proved their power and devotion as Hallyu stars,” explained a tourist agency representative at the concert venue.

They continued, “It got to the point where it became difficult for travelers to book rooms at hotels in Seoul. This concert would probably have raked in an economic value between $800,000 to $8 million USD.”

Meanwhile, just under two months ago, representatives of the Korean Entertainment Producers Association stated that, “JYJ’s activities will have a negative influence on the Hallyu Wave”, and sent out letters of request to various public and cable TV shows, asking them to avoid broadcasting JYJ on TV.

Despite this, JYJ have been traveling for the past month to six cities in Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, Taiwan, and China, as well as three of the biggest cities in America, in order to hold the concerts for their worldwide showcase, which attracted an enormous international fan base and thus proved wrong the flimsy allegations against their negative influence on the Hallyu effect.

after reading the whole article.. i'm not surprise that the travelling agencies gain much more profit because of the concert.. its nothing absurd about that.. we all know.. TVXQ have the biggest fan base in the entire world..

but.. when i read about the Korean entertainment part.. which is they try to convince all media not to publish anything about JYJ.. you know what..? that is totally unfair..!! why..? why are you so desperate..? JYJ is not your rival..! you make yourself looks like a fool.. don't you know that..?

negative influence..? what kind of statement is that..? they not even do something wrong.. they just did what they need to do.. they are singer.. what must a singer do besides singing on stage and meet the fans..? huh~ do you mean that everyone will turn to them and not support other artist anymore..? well.. its the fan's choice.. its about personal preferences.. its up to one individual to choose which one they like.. pabo you~~

owh.. i almost forgot 1 thing.. since TVXQ are in hiatus.. all korean idols start to rise.. well.. did you afraid with JYJ comeback to the stage will affect other artists rice pots..? whaaat..?? are you insane..? you should be thankful..! they give you ways to shine.. you gain so much profit already.. and yet.. when they comeback on stage.. you didn't even be grateful to them.. you try to destroy them..??!! really greedy la you~ omo... this is really make a fan like me go mad..

we all be waiting for them to comeback.. wish to see them on TV.. but your 'kind' attitude try not to broadcast them is really annoying.. you make a lot of mistakes if you being like this.. who know.. because we didn't manage to see them anymore.. we'll give up in Kpop entertainment..? who knows right..? coz TVXQ is the one who introduce a lot of us to Kpop world.. you should mind that..

haish~~ =_="

one question.. do you all (korean entertainment producers association) get paid by SM by doing this..?

luckily.. cassie were not give up.. until now.. we will always keep the faith.. we love our TVXQ boys..! JYJ = TVXQ..! mind that..!
