[NEWS] K-FEVER SPREADS IN FRANCE WITH THE HELP OF JANG KEUN SUK









Jang Keun Suk is a famous K star who is known for his professional acting skills! He is titled ‘Asia Prince’ which is not just for ornamental purposes. His fame in Japan and China is quite overwhelming and thus his Asian Prince title is more than JUST A  TITLE!

Well what is more amusing is that Jang Keun Suk’s fame has spread as far as Europe and maybe even beyond. It is quite common for K Pop idol groups to be well known in the western countries because of their periodic concerts. Many idol groups like SNSD, Wonder girls and more have officially debuted in American and European countries and released albums. So it is not surprising if they are well received in the western entertainment industry and among  non-asian fans.

But Jang Keun Suk is someone who has not debuted in western countries and has not carried out any world tours or shows/concerts. He is not a full time musician and has recently released one full length album and a mini album in collaboration with Big Brother Kurt. So Sukkie is not the ideal Idol boy band group member. He is more of an actor than of a musician!

So it was a major surprise on seeing him receiving a warm and exuberant welcome at the airport when he entered Paris last monday.

Sukkie embarked on an unannounced visit and just tweeted suddenly that he was on his way to Paris! Viola!! But many fans eagerly gathered at Charles de Gaulle Airport to welcome him. Airport authorities were not informed that a little fireball from Korea was arriving *sadly airport officials dont follow him in twitter teehee* and so was unprepared to assist him and so there was a slight hassle.

But Sukkie was amazed by this gathering and so were many others! Asia Prince Jang Keun Suk has reached this high level of recognition with his dramas and as an actor. I cant imagine how popular he will become once he debuts officially!

And the fawning attention by Eels did not stop at the airport. The Eels kept following him around to Hotel, Shopping Malls, Tourist spots and more to get autographs and photos which Sukkie gave willingly!

Truthfully Sukkie has made his French fans to fall in love with him more and I wonder if this swooning effect is just a stepping stone for his securing the ‘World Prince’ title soon!

Here are some shots of Sukkie on his way to France, at the Paris Airport, with Fans in the streets and shops of Paris!












Besides as pointed out by Fans at the rate he has been shopping in the past few days in Paris it is clear that European economy needs him. Keep shopping, Sukkie!

[NEWS] Jang Geun Suk’s Favorite Accessory





Back in June, Jang Geun Suk garnered much attention when he shared a picture of himself wearing a uniquely designed metal headband on twitter and commented, “I like this headband. I’m gonna make it a thing in Asia.” He named this headband “Straight-ahead Headband” and has been continuously wearing the item.

In many pictures he shared online, fans could easily spot this gold-colored headband. He wore it in real life, studying Chinese, having a meal, and at airports. The concept of headband for men is definitely something new and men usually are hesitant to give it a try, but Jang Geun Suk makes it look fashionable and natural even on men.

It turns out, Jang Geun Suk participated in the designing process of “Straight-ahead Headband” with jewelry designer Park Min Joo, who is also actress Park Si Yeon‘s younger sister. In fact, the product is distributed by Park Min Joo’s jewelry brand MZUU. A representative from MZUU commented, “Since Jang Geun Suk announced that he is going to make the ‘Straight-ahead Headband’ a trend in Asia, it has been selling really well to the point where customers have to wait for at least three weeks to receive the product after they place their orders.”

The representative added, “Currently, we just don’t have enough of ‘Straight-ahead Headband’ to sell in both online and offline markets. Due to such a big demand, customers have to wait for quite some time to receive the headband, so we are having a discount event on the product to appease these anticipating customers. The sales of this headband increased exponentially in both domestic and international markets. We are realizing Jang Geun Suk’s star power in Asian markets.”

[NEWS] Jang Keun Suk publishes his personal magazine CRI-J in Japan



Jang Keun Suk publishes his personal magazine CRI-J in Japan
July 10, 2012 1:00 pm eternalc2h 

Actor Jang Keun Suk is publishing the season 2/02 of his personal magazine CRI-J in Japan on July 10.

CRI-J is a specialized magazine for Jang, which is published four times a year in Japan. It was published in April, July, and October last year and January this year. The season one of the magazine was really popular in Japan that its sales volume was incomparable to that of any Hallyu actors’ personal magazines, which was over 24,000 copies.

As many people requested for the second season, Jang decided to publish the season two of CRI-J.

Unlike the season one, which shows the 25-year-old man Jang, the season 2/01 published in April shows all about Jang’s daily life in detail, reinterpreting his powerful, passionate looks in ten different colors.

From Jang’s honest interview done by himself to his favorite colors, his various charms can be seen in the second issue of CRI-J.

By perfectly performing 19 songs live for 150 minutes, Jang successfully held a concert, titled the 2012 Jang Keun Suk Asian Tour – The Cri Show 2 in Seoul, on July 7. He will continue his concert tour at Yokohama Arena in Japan on July 21 and 22.
