The shocking news of the terrible earthquake and tsunami in Japan set many people on high alert and prayers began to go out to the people of Japan.  We became even more anxious when learning that Junsu and staff are still in Japan.

The latest reports (as of 3:45AM ET) are that Junsu is unhurt, though he did feel the quake, and that they’re waiting on the next possible time they can get on a flight to Korea once the airport reopens.

Avex inflames JYJ fanbase to make money, without allowing sales to count on Oricon Chart?

Is avex (Japan) releasing JYJ material without allowing the group’s products to be ranked on Oricon’s chart?  The answer is yes. 

The act has been called despicable and unfair by a number of fans familiar with the situation.

While acting as a shill for Korean company SM, avex purposely blocked all of JYJ’s appearances in Japan.  Some say that this was done in order to pressure JYJ to give in, which they didn’t.

The products in question are JYJ’s DVD “Memories in 2010” and it’s “Thanksgiving Live in Dome Live CD”.  Both products were just released on March 2. 

The problem is that avex is refusing to allow any of the total sales to count on the uber important Japanese Oricon chart.

Kukinews calls for Knee Drop Guru to give equal time for JYJ

Kukinews’s Cho Hyun Woo wrote an article calling for the Korean show “Knee Drop Guru” to give JYJ equal time to tell their side after allowing the 2 members who sided with SM to criticize JYJ for filing a lawsuit.

Many are questioning why JYJ continues to be blocked from appearing on Korean television shows despite more than one ruling from the Courts saying that SM shall not interfere with their work.

Among the biting criticism of the show in general was a call for Knee Drop Guru to give JYJ their fair share of time to rebutt words from Yunho, for example, who claims he had no idea JYJ would file to sue SM.  He called the lawsuit “extreme” according to translated reports and said the action essentially ruined their upcoming projects.
