Had a small accident with my hard drive literally burning up. So while I’m beginning to recollect my files, you get something translated/summed up. Done in a whim, so apologies in advance if there are typos to be found.

NHK’s Music Japan is airing a 東方神起-special on November the 30th, and the MJ-director 英米 [Eibei?] wrote a teaser-entry about it in the EYES-blog.
I linked the song-names to translations of the songs in question.

Click for the sum-up.

I don’t mind people taking this out of the blog, reposting and whatnot, but do have the courtesy of linking back to this blog.
Thank you.

First he introduces himself and mentions that 東方神起 participated in MJ’s 「恋うた2008」 [Koiuta 2008] a little while ago (November the 14th, for those who have already forgotten) and uses this opportunity to thank the audience of the event.

東方神起

The broadcast-date of the MJ 東方神起-special is coming closer.
The usually laugh-filled talk leading to singing and dancing turned this time very loaded with 東方神起 doing serious self-study.
All in all it’s a whole 49-minute broadcast for the viewers to enjoy.

This time, 東方神起 will perform two songs for the first time on television.
The first one is their newest song, a cool dance number, 「呪文」 [Jumon] and the other is their hit song, wonderful ballad 「Love in the Ice」.
The second one is a heart-wrenching and desperate song, and even moreso when they will perform the full version of it, total duration 5:20.
A broadcast to treasure.

東方神起

The results of the 「Performances I want to see again」 -voting (deadline for voting was November the 25th), will be revealed and the top5 of that ranking will be broadcasted.

Furthermore, there will be two more special segments.

1: 「東方神起とタコ焼きを作ろう!」 [Let's make takoyaki with Tohoshinki!]
where the members participate in the “original takoyaki”-challenge.
This takes a totally unpredicted course, when Junsu…

2: 「東方神起の韓国語講座」 [Tohoshinki's Korean language course]
where the members teach some useful Korean expressions.
These are definitely practical in real life.

東方神起

Music Japan’s 東方神起-special airs November the 30th, airing time 15:05-15:54.
Be sure not to miss it!

Note: I left the director’s personal notes out, don’t think anyone will be too disstressed because of that.

I take small translation requests, so you won’t lose anything by asking.

Thank you for the sum-up!
I am really looking forward to it! So, we are going to have another fabulous LITI performance!

And, takoyaki-challenge is promising ROFL moments, since Junsu is mentioned…hands down ;D

No problem.
Junsu is synonyme to failure. Have to point out, that the Japanese fangirls do need a “stupid one” in every group so he does his job ^^
