He told me he was too nervous to go by himself, and that he wanted me to come along with him. Understanding his worries, I decided to go along with him.A few days later, he suddenly took me to a corner and whispered: Hey.. I got accepted in the audition! Hehehe..It never crossed my mind that he would get accepted, but he had easily gotten accepted.It was our grade 9 winter break, at the time.For him, the pain was only just beginning..Ever since that young age, he went from Gwang Joo to Seoul, once a week to get training. (VERY long drive to get to Seoul from Gwang Joo)It kept going on for 2-3 years.I had followed him a few times, and I couldn't believe how hard the training was.But he never gave up, and put effort into everything he did.He practiced his vocals in the middle of a crowded park, he practiced his dancing in the middle of the city bus..He never stopped.He would often phone and sing to me, asking: How is it? How does it sound?Then one day, he called and.. -sigh-He started to cry.. telling me how hard and painful it was..He, who always had a smile on his face, always laughing..He was crying..But he never even thought of giving up.And then.. when I first saw him on TV, I felt a sudden lump in my throat.A few months later, he called and bragged endlessly about how his group's song had taken first place on the music countdown.I joked, "Yeah right~ how would you guys get first place?"But he kept insisting quietly, 'But we really did.." ^^;;This friend, who has the voice of innocence, and the passion for singing and dancing..His name is..Jung Yunho.Now, known as U-Know Yunho...

DongBangShinKi/Gi @TongVfangXienQi @Tohoshinki
INFO :
TVXQ is the acronym of Tong Vfang Xien Qi, a Korean boy band formed by SM Entertainment. It is composed of five members specializing in the areas of dance, acappella, acting, and pop with an R&B vibe. The group has gained popularity in South Korea, Japan, Taiwan, China, Thailand and other East Asian countries. Currently, it is one of the top pop groups of the Korean wave (hallyu).
Their name translates to "Rising Gods of the East." They are known in Korea as 'Dong Bang Shin Gi' (often abbreviated as DBSG and DBSK) while the Japanese equivalent of the group's name is 'Tōhōshinki' (abbreviated as THSK).
Although their origin is of pure Korean, the band wishes and does indeed refer themselves as "TVXQ", the Chinese version of their name. It is not necessarily because they are more popular in China or are interested in China, but because of their wish to name themselves in traditional hanja or Chinese symbols.
HISTORY :
2003: Pre-fame
Typical of a premature boy band, the members were separately chosen by SM Entertainment through various auditions. The trainees in the company including members of Super Junior were divided into groups of their peers and received training to find potential talents. The five members of TVXQ were originally the lead vocals of other singing groups.
2004: Debut
TVXQ made their first appearance on December 26, 2003 during a BoA and Britney Spears Showcase. They performed their debut song Hug as well as an acappella rendition of O Holy Night alongside BoA. The group eventually released two physical singles (Hug and The Way U Are), accompanied by photo books, before their first album in 2004. TVXQ reached #1 on Korean music charts in three months after their debut.
An official fan club was created, named after the Cassiopeia constellation near the Big Dipper. TVXQ's fans chose the name "Cassiopeia" for their fan club because the constellation has 5 stars in its galaxy, and TVXQ has 5 members. When traced on a computer keyboard, "TVfXQ" makes the constellation Cassiopeia.
SM Entertainment had once considered adding a Chinese member to the group and have member rotation to help boost popularity in other countries, as hinted in The 3rd StoryBook - TVfXQ!, and to also branch each member into different solo activities, or possibly combine other trainees into the group. However, the idea was immediately abandoned due to a great deal of fan opposition and outrage who tried to also boycott SM Entertainment products at the time.
2006: Overseas expansion and release of third Korean album
Going overseas -Before returning to South Korea with their third album in Fall 2006, TVXQ endeavored to spread their sphere of influence out of the country. They held their first Asian tour, made guest appearances, and were featured on commercials in several Asian countries in 2006, including Malaysia, Thailand and Japan. TVXQ members were the first Korean performers ever to stage a concert in Malaysia for their "Rising Sun 1st Asia Tour", in Bukit Jalil (Putra Indoor Stadium) for their 2nd Korean album "Rising Sun", released in 2005. The tour continued to Thailand, Bangkok at the Impact Arena.
Soon after, they was kept busy in preparation for the first tour in Japan, "Heart, Mind and Soul", to promote their Japanese album. They released as many as 5 Japanese singles in total that year. The members also focused on strengtening their grasp on the Japanese language to increase promotions in the country and communicate better with fans, similar to BoA in her early debut years in Japan.
Their move to stretch outside of South Korea was successful and the fan response was overwhelming. They were the first Asian group to win two Thailand Music Awards for both Best Music Video (Rising Sun) and Favorite Asian Artist. Their seventh Japanese single Sky hit #6 on the Oricon Weekly Chart, with their eighth single Miss You reaching #3 in Japan. They have topped both the Japanese and Korean charts on the Malaysian radio show "988" twice with their singles "Begin" and "The Fighting Spirit Of The East". The show has an audience of about 4.2 million listeners, reaching as far as Singapore.
Return to Korea - The group returned to Korea in late August in order to prepare for their third album titled "O"-正.反.合. ('O' - Jung.Ban.Hap). The album was released on September 29 with two editions; version A containing a poster and a photo book, version B with a poster and a special DVD. In the first month of its release, the third album surpassed the 100,000 mark in South Korea, and to date has sold over 330,000 copies.

INTRO - SM Entertainment is a major producer of Korean pop music that was founded by Lee Soo Man, and is also the management agency of several Korean pop stars. Initially "SM" was an abbreviation of the label founder's name, Soo Man, but now stands for Star Museum, alluding to the popularity of SM Entertainment's singers in South Korea.
HISTORY - The founder of SM Entertainment, Lee Soo Man is a graduate of Seoul University. After graduation and his own solo activities, he started out by surveying teenage girls what they wanted to see in music groups. With this information, he started the boy band H.O.T. and girl group S.E.S. Strongly successful from the beginning, both groups managed to become two of the top Korean pop groups of the 1990s.
Problems began appearing in SM Entertainment with the breakup of H.O.T., due to its immense popularity. Rumors spread about the breakup, due to the fact that two members stayed with the company, while the others formed another group with a different label. Financial issues were assumed to be the problem, but the real reasons were never officially disclosed. This began SM Entertainment's loss of its original groups, as other successful groups S.E.S., popular boyband Shinhwa and Fly To The Sky either left the label or disbanded, and newer groups such as Black Beat and Isak N Jiyeon floundered. However, SM Entertainment found a new star, BoA, who has become popular not only in her home country but also in Japan, and groups such as TVXQ and Super Junior. Due to BoA's success overseas, this Blue Ocean Strategy of branching out to untapped Asian markets is currently being applied to other groups such as TVXQ (who have travelled and promoted their music in other various countries), although BoA is still SM Entertainment's most popular artist outside of South Korea, due to her strength in the j-pop market.

Duno if i should buy another one or not coz i'm quite like it... Haih, it is impossible for me to found it dy...
Its Confirmed Now!
Now its confirmed that i don get the matrikulasi.. I guess i'll juz go to PTPL in Terengganu... But here come my problem, my bro keep saying that PTPL is no good better go to KTAR or other private college.. I hav make up my mind so i won't follow what he said.. Or else i'll hv to think all over again.. Although studying in PTPL is quite wasting time (i guess) coz it need 2 n a half years for me to finish my Diploma while most of the college juz need 2 years n matrikulasi students juz need one year to continue their degree in university... PTPL, wait for me....
