[Trans] 120704 ELLE July Edition – Together With Park Yoochun… What Happened In Bali
Upon reaching Bali’s airport after midnight, he was told that waiting has to be done at the airport for almost a day and his expression immediately changed into excitement. The lethargic eyes immediately gained spirit. “What shall we do?” From the several hours after that, till the day of returning, Park Yoochun had a mandatory daily activity. And that was to swim freely like a seal in the wide swimming pool of the pool villa. Perhaps it is his own interest that he prefer the sea than the mountain, swimming than walking. “I really like the sea. Just by looking at the endless horizon, it is able to change my frame of mind. Though I do like activities eg. banana boat and wakeboarding at the river too, it’s incomparable to fishing and water sports (in the sea).” Whenever he was swimming, the speakers will be used. But most of the time he will plugged in his earphones and listened to music. This made others wonder if he is unable to stand any void spaces of no rhythm?
“It’s simply because I like music. Since young, music has a precious existence to me. It is the same till now.” In that case, what is the ‘hot track’ that has been playing on your handphone? “I’m not lying here but I have been listening to Junsu’s album everyday recently. It is really cool. It made me proud as a JYJ member that it is an album of high quality.” To the album released by a fellow group member, he supported it like a young girl. Not long ago, he was infatuated with acoustic music. During the filming of the drama, it was that genre that maintained his sensibility.
Although he owned a lot of things, that unknowingly emptiness continued throughout the man’s healing trip. Just like the theme for this pictorial, and in actuality is the same for anyone else in human interactions, his emptiness and loneliness emerged at different times from others. “Emptiness, loneliness, and thankfulness etc, all these perplexed feelings seems to be existing at the same time. Of course there would be times where I felt lonlier than others. It’s not that there’s no ways to ovecome it but it’s not a time to be alone. Because there are family or colleagues. Recently I felt that the sensibility at those times could be useful for my actor career. The sensibility moment can be good for music making too.”
Gaining experiences with ‘Sungkyunkwan Scandal’, ‘Miss Ripley’ and ‘Rooftop Prince’, Park Yoochun made people wonder if he is born with the ability to arouse topic discussions. Everytime he would be the center attraction of interesting stories. His way of treating acting with familiarity and exquisity made his name known to different generations. “I felt happy due to ‘Sungkyunkwan Scandal”s good reviews and responses but felt the burden at the same time. It was also the reason behind the burdening and troubles during the filming of ‘Miss Ripley’. For ‘Rooftop Prince’, I cleared my heart and went filming with a clear mind. Thinking, rather with a determination to surpass the previous works, why don’t I display the character naturally, ‘please accept my presentation’.” Comparing when feelings are emptied or in struggling times, experienced ones would say that extraordinary results are usually for those who acted naturally. “I think that collaborating well (in real life) with fellow actors is the same theoretically. In this drama, I am very thankful to Han Ji Min. Even it’s just a one-liner, she would listen well to her partner, me and helped me to act with my correct feelings. Overall, the ambience within the cast and crew was very good. I really became closer with Woo Shik, Suk Won hyung and Min Ho.”
Coincidentally with ELLE’s schedule, this man welcomed his ‘once in a year’ day. In this world, there are people who felt that they have to spend their birthday memorable and there are those who felt that it is okay to spend it quietly. Park Yoochun who ever said that, “Since 1999, I have never spent my birthday in Korea once.”, belonged to the latter. “Birthday is not exactly that meaningful. It’s just a day in a year.” No matter how cool that person is, on that event-less day, just a simple preparation of wine would be able to settle that depressing feel. Though he misses his mum’s cooking a lot, the crew was thankfully able to find a Korean restaurant infused with local delicacy. (At Bali, his favourite dish is a soya sauce with shredded chillies.) As long as you are with a good company, the taste of the dishes does not really matter.
Spending a total of 6 days 4 nights at Bali with him, he looks the same as the first time we have met. Though I do not have the power to test his heart’s warmth at first meeting, I would want to send him a supporting message that he used to give to himself. “You did well. Hope you will become a responsible person always.”

rahhh don’t said that or we never gonna be able to see his belly anymore since he doesn’t like working out lol
@Devja
But my water baby swims!!
i still find him the sexiest man on earth even without the six pack..lol..biased much
@venice
Nodding in agreement! Hi-5~! Nah, I’m not biased.
lol~
Agree 100% with closed my eyes
YC doesn’t need to show his 6 pack *unlike others* *cough*
he is sexy with or without his clothes on! <3
@Hana6002
Ok, lemme try. o.o o.o …counting…1, 2……2, 3, 4…oopss…*lost count*
…wosh! …kyah, where were I? I lost it again?
…o.o…counting again…1, 2, 3………nipples!!!
It’s ok, start again. Count 1, 2………..wait, 1, 2, 3…… 4, 5……is that a 6 up there?…
…arghhh ~~~~~~~~~~~~~> I GAVE UP!!!!!!
He’s too bony, goodness. Too many bones, how to count???
@bubbly dear u dare to count…..i try not to stare at those area for long keke~~~~
@umeira
LOL. I’ve to at least try, who knows the winner might get a *cybermuah* from YC, me want! …hahaha~~~
YC ribs is talk of the town hehe ………from what i can see there is a child in that man’s body when he jumped like that
as for the bare tummy hurrmmm sexy to the eyes of the beholder keke~~~~
@Hana6002
Objection!
YC’s one-pack looks sexier than some others’ six-pack! *wink*
Say who??? Say~~~~~~~~~~~~> ME, hahaha~~~
Hey, that’s what I like about him. Not many “in” idols dare to bare their chests WITHOUT a firm six-pack abs in photo shoots. God knows how many hours the majority of them are willing to spend in gyms and how many months they’ve to control their diets just to get their six-pack abs ready in order to look their best in front of the cameras, recorders and what not.
My baby is one of the precious few who couldn’t be bothered with the six-pack thingy, hehe. He’s THAT confident with his body. He’s like: forget the six-pack, Imma show you my one-pack, lol~~ that’s PYC for you, ppl.
Nah, I think he’s more like: this photo shoot is about me, so I’m gonna show you me, and not somebody that’s not me, ya get what I mean??? If you want to look at six-pack abs, don’t look at me…*lol*
To me, his INVISIBLE six-pack SELF-CONFIDENCE is way wAy sexier than the VISIBLE six-pack ABS.
Self-confidence vs abs << I choose the former.
yOOhoo, it’s ok baby, follow your heart and do what makes you feel comfortable and good……and more importantly that makes you feel YOU!! You can count on us crazy Chunsas; six-pack, two-pack or one-pack, we still love you all the same.
ps: Spoiling PYC has become my new hobby now!! Hahaha~~~ I love my YC.
WELL SAID!! yeah, unlike others… *cough*
in my mind, i think that those who need to show their 6 packs doesn’t have that much confidence and therefore they need to do so.. but our YC is very comfortable in his own skin that he doesn’t have to do the same.. 6 pack is too mainstream!! YC is showing them that all it takes to be sexy is the talent, not the body!
hope he had a wonderful time at bali,indonesia^^
A big thank you for posting the translated version xxxxxx
The article makes our love, care and support for YooChun stronger and stronger.
TQSM admin for posting the interview with translation. I find YC is mysterious sort of way not predictable at all, hard to understand his thoughts sometime, deep in emotion, but this is why i fall for him cause YC is rare
@umeira
Aren’t we glad we found this precious rare species by the name of PYC, haha~~~
Normally we have to choose, either you go for the look or the brain, and we are lucky, we get to have both…
…in one single person, PYC!
@bubbly ***hugs***
yes we r d lucky one….the chosen fans ^^
I wanna thank our lovely @nicoleyt for this awesome post. Very clever and sincere answers all the way! Love it.
“It’s simply because I like music. Since young, music has a precious existence to me. It is the same till now.”
Boy, aren’t we glad the man himself confirms that he still loves music. I love him as an actor, he’s improved by leaps and bounds as far as acting is concerned but I love the singer/composer YC just as much. Kinda miss musician YC now.
At one point, it does look like he’ll slow down on his singing career, in order to concentrate more on his acting career. After all, he did mention in some interviews that he’s beginning to like acting a lot. Guess we can truly breathe a sigh of relief now, haha~~~
We all know that he’s been composing lately; I wonder is it for their group album or for his solo album? (praying hard for a solo album, lol~).
But then again, baby, if you are really preparing to come up with a solo album, I hope you can really put some time into training those vocal chords of yours. Sing baby, sing. You are born with great voice quality, one of the best around I would say. With some effort in training those chords of yours, I believe you’ll be able to fly as high as you want.
exactly solo album with vocal training, i believe he continue to write songs but why do he never show us T T. he & music has special relationship,we can feel it and musical instrument answer to him, every instrument he touch always answer him in beautiful melody.
@Zan
There’s no doubt about it, he has been writing and composing the most beautiful songs all along. I’ve total faith in this god given talent of his. Top that up with a well-trained vocal; he should be able to shine in a solo album.
Idk, maybe it’s just me. He’s a confident baby, confident in everything he does but comparatively, he’s not as confident with his own voice compared to other areas. Maybe he’s always comparing himself to JS. He even mentioned in one couple talk interview together with JS way back in their DBSK days when JS questioned why he never heard YC hums, and his answer to JS was: “I dare not, because you are around”, hahaha~~~ talk about JS No. 1 fanboy. And JS on the other hand hums and sings ALL the time. That’s the difference between these two darlings.
Micky darling, JS is great but you are not bad either (after all, you are a member of JYJ. JYJ consist only the best!
). You just need to hum and sing more and get IN TOUCH with your voice. You are born with a unique voice that everyone can only dream of having, you know, deep, husky, sexy and all. You just need to put a lil’ more effort in polishing or building those vocal muscles of yours up and you are good to challenge JS, agree JS? Haha, I love my maknae, I’m sure he’ll welcome the idea of YC challenging him in terms of singing, instead of members from other groups, hehe.
You need to sing OFTEN, if possible every day, all the time (I guess that’s what JS is doing, haha~) to maintain your ability to hit the high and the low notes and all. You need to build up the vocal muscles, challenge yourself to build it up to six-pack…erm, come to think of it, yes, build these muscles up first, for the sake of your solo album, abs can come later, hahaha~
Princey fighting~! I love my Prince.
As much as I love his voice, I do admit that he needs some vocal training! With that, he’s all set for a solo album!!! <3
@renee
Hi-5~! I love Chunsas, they are always honest with their opinions – like their idol~!
^^
I guess it’s because we want only the best for YC. To me, if he ever come up with a solo album, I hope it’ll be an album that will be loved and well-received by many and hopefully, it’ll be an album that will impress not only Chunsas, but all listeners in general. That’s my wish.
Chun dearest, when was the last time you sing a song, I mean in full? See, he’s smiling, he can’t even remember, it’s too long ago right? hahaha, I’m kidding. But then again, yeah, sing baby SING!!!!!!
What better way to shut antis/jellies mouths then with a great album!
“I’m not lying here but I have been listening to Junsu’s album everyday recently. It is really cool. It made me proud as a JYJ member that it is an album of high quality.”
Idk, whatever that comes out from his mouth sounds sincere, is it b’coz I’m biased? lol~ You can tell he’s really proud and happy for JS. I love their brotherly love. Yoosu is <3
Thanks @Nicoleyt
This is a lovely read. YC came across as warm, down-to-earth, passionate, child-like, but also thoughtful, pensive, deep and mysterious – such an intriguing mix of characteristics. And all these interesting shades of his personality really adds a lot to his work, both his music and acting ^__^
Ditto to all the above said~ Yoochun are really blessed he’s a young man with privileged mind^^♥
soya sauce with shredded chilli…yuchun baby, I LOVE that too ^___________^
I just got hold of Junsu’s album and I really like it too so Yuchun oppa, I agree with u totally that it’s of high quality. I love the song ‘I don’t like love’ cos it brings back memories of the fireworks date in rooftop prince. Best!!!
