[Trans] U-Kiss @ Junior Magazine

Animal Test 1: The members had to choose an animal that they think will send good future messages. They also chose an animal that is most likely to tell bad news. The choices: tiger, dog, lamb, parrot, and turtle.
Animal Test 2: From the choices lion, horse, lamb, cow, and monkey, the members had to choose which animals they would get rid of first.
Animal Test 3: The members chose how they will “move”/”transport” these animals: snake, monkey, and bird
Animal Test 4: This test will show how the members will react if their crush had a boyfriend by choosing an animal.



KEVIN’S RESULTS
Animal Test 1 Result: Same as AJ and Kiseop, Kevin chose a lamb to carry good future news and a tiger to send out bad messages. This shows that Kevin’s future partner/wife must treat him with warmth and comfort. Choosing the tiger, this shows Kevin’s future partner should not be someone that is demanding and controlling. His test results show his greatest fear is to live under a roof of a demanding wife.
Animal Test 2 Result: Cow-Lamb-Lion-Monkey-Horse is the order that Kevin will get rid of these animals. Kevin thinks of work as most important then his friend/future partner. Getting rid of the cow first shows that Kevin does not stress on money.
Animal Test 3 Result: Kevin chose to throw the snake away and hold the monkey. With the bird, he would put it on his shoulders. Throwing the snake away shows Kevin will have money problems but will not care too much. Holding the monkey shows Kevin will give all his love to his future partner. The way he puts the bird indicates he thinks of his future child with great care.
Animal Test 4 Result: Kevin chose a giraffe. Because of the long neck, giraffes are able to find out good information about everything. This shows that Kevin will pin point the girl’s favorite things and do it for her in order to get her attention.



ELI’S RESULTS
Animal Test 1 Result: Eli chose a dog to send out good messages and a lamb to deliver bad messages. These results show Eli’s future partner/wife should trust him with everything and follow his path. On the other hand, the results show Eli’s fear is meeting someone that does same things until he gets old.
Animal Test 2 Result: Lion-Lamb-Cow-Monkey-Horse is the order Eli will get rid of first. These results show Eli thinks of work as most important. Following work, friends and his future partner is the next most important thing. The last things that are important to him are money and his future child.
Animal Test 3 Result: Eli chose to make the monkey follow him. He answered that he would hold the snake. With the bird, Eli chooses to let it fly wherever it wants to go. Having the monkey follow him, this shows that Eli’s future partner should follow him. Letting the bird fly anywhere shows Eli will give space and freedom to his future children as they get older. Holding the snake shows Eli will be in charge of money problems and do whatever it takes to support his family.
Animal Test 4 Result: Eli chose an elephant. If his crush has a girlfriend, he would not bother her.


AJ’S RESULTS
Animal Test 1 Result: AJ chose the lamb to send out good future messages. He chose the tiger to send out bad messages. This shows that AJ’s future partner/wife must treat him with warmth and comfort. Choosing the tiger, this shows AJ’s future partner should not be someone that is demanding and controlling. His test results show his greatest fear is to live under a roof of a demanding wife.
Animal Test 2 Result: Monkey-Lamb-Cow-Lion-Horse is the order AJ chose to get rid of. Getting rid of the horse last shows AJ treasures work first. Following this, AJ values his future child, wife, and friends next. Because friends is last on his list, he must work hard in order to receive full love from them.
Animal Test 3 Result: AJ chose to put the monkey on his right arm and the snake on his left. He then decided to put the bird on his shoulders. These results show the AJ believes protecting his future partner/wife is key. Putting the snake on his left arm shows he does not easily fall into temptations.
Animal Test 4 Result: AJ chose an elephant. AJ believes if the girl isn’t for him, he should have nothing to do with him.


KISEOP’S RESULTS
Animal Test 1 Result: Kiseop chose a lamb to send out good future messages and chose the tiger that will send out bad messages. Kiseop’s choice of the lamb resembles a warm, and comfortable personality. This shows that Kiseop’s future partner/wife must treat him with warmth and comfort. Choosing the tiger, this shows Kiseop’s future partner should not be someone that is demanding and controlling. His test results show his greatest fear is to live under a roof of a demanding wife.
Animal Test 2 Result: Tiger-Monkey-Cow-Lamb-Horse is the order Kiseop will get rid of first. Getting rid of the horse last, this shows Kiseop treasures work. The next is he treasures his future child, wife, and friends.
Animal Test 3 Result: Kiseop answered that he will take the monkey, snake, and bird in his car to transport them. This result shows Kiseop thinks of his close family and friends as his top priority and will do whatever it takes to make them comfortable.
Animal Test 4 Result: Kiseop chose an elephant. This shows that he is someone who doesn’t care as much. Kiseop will simply move on. It also shows he will be less likely to be in situation like this.


DONGHO’S RESULTS
Animal Test Result 1: Dongho chose the tiger that will most likely send good future messages and chose the turtle that will send out bad messages. These results show Dongho expects to meet his future partner/girlfriend who has strong wills and ambitions. Choosing the turtle, the future partner/girlfriend Dongho should NOT meet is someone who does not know how to smile and someone who is always serious.
Animal Test Result 2: Monkey-Lamb-Lion-Cow-Horse is the order that Dongho chose to get rid of first. He values work the most then money. Falling that, he cares for his friends/partner.
Animal Test Result 3: Dongho chose to have the snake wrap around the monkey’s neck and have the bird sit on the monkey’s shoulders. With his, he would hold hands with the monkey. This shows that Dongho will trust his future partner/girlfriend 100%. Dongho will have his future partner/girlfriend take care of finance problems and have her take care of their future child’s education. Holding hands with the monkey show that Dongho will work hard with his partner to be together forever.
Animal Test Result 4: Dongho chose a lion. Even though he looks strong on the outside, he is weak. Dongho will not confess to his crush; therefore, he will only watch her from far away.

SOOHYUN’S RESULTS
Animal Test Result 1: Soohyun chose the parrot as the animal that will send good future messages. He chose the dog that will most likely send out bad messages. Soohyun will be happiest when he meets his future partner (girlfriend) that knows how to make him happy. He will also be happiest when she has the best humor and is very outgoing. Choosing a dog, Soohyun will be miserable if he meets a partner (girlfriend) that seeks attention and only works hard to please others.
Animal Test Result 2: Lamb-Monkey-Horse-Cow is the order that Soohyun chose to get rid of first. This shows that Soohyun values money first and then his job and friends/partner. Also, these results show Soohyun will value his future child greatly.
Animal Test Result 3: Soohyun stated that he would make the snake walk on its stomach be it has no legs. He also stated he would hold hands with the monkey as they walk together. At the end, he chose the bird to fly above his head. The monkey is his future partner/girlfriend, the snake is his fortune, and the bird is his future child. Because Soohyun stated that he would throw away the snake, his fortune (making money) does not look good. Putting the bird above his head shows that his future child will be his number one priority. Holding hands with the monkey shows Soohyun will work hard with his future partner to be together forever.
Animal Test Result 4: What would Soohyun do if his crush already had a boyfriend? Soohyun chose the animal lion. Even though he looks strong on the outside, he is weak. Soohyun will not confess to his crush; therefore, he will only watch her from far away.


HOON’S RESULTS
Animal Test Result 1: Hoon chose the lamb as the animal that will send out good future messages and the turtle as the animal that will send out bad messages. This shows that Hoon’s future partner/wife must treat him with warmth and comfort. Choosing the turtle, the future partner/girlfriend Hoon should NOT meet is someone who does not know how to smile and someone who is always serious.
Animal Test Result 2: Cow-Lion-Lamb-Horse-Monkey is the order Hoon would get rid of. This shows that Hoon’s top priorities are his wife and friends. Getting rid of the monkey shows that Hoon will easily let go of money.
Animal Test Result 3: Hoon chose to put the monkey on his shoulders and wrap the snake around his head. He then decided to put the bird on top of his hand. Putting the monkey on his shoulders indicate his future partner/wife will listen well to Hoon. Wrapping the snake around his head show that he will make a descent amount of money and spend it wisely. Finally, putting the bird on top of his hand show he will take care of his future child when it is necessary.
Animal Test Result 4: Hoon chose a zebra. If Hoon finds that his crush is the “love of his life”, he will do whatever it takes to get her. The fact that she has a boyfriend does not matter to Hoon.

[News] Hai Magazine's Introduction to U-Kiss


‘0330’ has increased the popularity of these seven young boys. U-Kiss, that consists of Soohyun, Kiseop, Eli, AJ, Hoon, Kevin and Dongho, keep striving to move forward despite the member changes of two original members, Alexander and Kibum, departing from the group.

Taking their first step in Japan on 15 August 2008, U-Kiss, that initially had six members, became a seven-member group after Lee Kiseop joined in 2009.
Avid K-Pop fans surely already know every one of these handsome boys that come from South Korea.
However, many Malaysian fans still do not know their identities.
Let’s get to know each U-Kiss member, who came to Malaysia for a concert and fan meeting on 10 June.

Alexander & Kibum Eliminated?
Even though Kibum first said he left to focus on his business, he revealed later that he was forced by the agency to terminate his contract.
Instead, the agency said that the decision was made after seeing Kibum’s progress. It was said that he does not have enough abilities and skills.
“I didn’t quit, but they terminated my contract. The agency said that they were going to change two members and told me to sign an agreement to terminate my contract.”
“I pity my fans. I didn’t leave U-Kiss voluntarily. All this while, my business never interrupted U-Kiss activities.”
“I’ve thought of the members as my own family. It’s sad to say goodbye but I respect my agency’s decision to replace me with someone better,” he sadly said.

The same situation happened to Alexander who said that he didn’t leave because of his desire to continue his studies.
Even though he was able to speak seven languages, luck was not on his side.
However, Alex is still under NH Media and has the chance to continue his work. (Note: Hai Mag. must have based this from other articles)

Hoon & AJ Pressurized

Kibum’s and Alex’s departure really affected U-Kiss’ loyal fans.
There were some who cried over these two members’ departure, and there were some who would commit suicide if U-Kiss were to be replaced with new members.
Certainly, even before the two new members were revealed, they were already bashed severely by fans, and had anti-fans.

Expressing the pressure that he has to bear and the huge responsibility when chosen to be part of a group that already has their own unique place, Hoon explains that what is important to him is for him to work hard to succeed.

“Usually, I’m alone and it’s really fun to be with a group.”
“However, there was a lot of pressure when I first joined U-Kiss. Furthermore, the group is so popular. Yet, that makes me want to further succeed,”
said Hoon.

For AJ, it is surely an achievement to be proud of when he was selected to join U-Kiss.
“Even though I still lack in many aspects, I really gave my best for our newest album.”
“Although pressurized, I need to show my capabilities and development of to the fans,” he explained.

INTERESTING U-KISS FACTS
- Their company forbids them to date.
- They like to watch romantic movies together and talk about their individual love lives
- U-Kiss likes to dance to SNSD’s songs.
- To Dongho, ‘STUPID’ means ‘Super Talented Unique Person in Demand”
- Their Man Man Ha Ni dance move has spread widely all over Korea to the point that it was constantly talked about
on entertainment shows.

[News] U-Kiss is ready for their full-scale Japanese debut and... Takoyaki houses?


U-Kiss has a burning will to tour in Japan.

U-Kiss is currently planning to work in the Osaka-based area in the Kansai region in order to differentiate themselves since most Korean idol groups have a tendency to work in Tokyo, Japan.

They have began living together under one roof this month. They have seemed to adapt to Japanese lifestyle very well.

The members often have strenuous and very difficult practices every day, and since they are within thirty minutes of takoyaki shops (grilled octopus dumplings) they have taken a particular affection to the Japanese cuisine. They also have a very bold passion for learning the Japanese language, as they often go outside and converse in Japanese using practical exercises. Dongho, the youngest of U-Kiss, says that he would love to go to Japan’s outdoor fields to play baseball. He said he would also love to attend the Koshien Invitational one day.

Today, they have started the first of their live filming for their upcoming DVD release.

U-Kiss is a multinational group with dreams of momentum for global expansion, one that could easily be achieved with their new-found success in Japan.

U-Kiss emerges as 'God of Korean Wave Idols'.

U-Kiss is currently preparing with Avex entertainment for their debut in Japan this month. They are embarking on their debut from Osaka and have interested many new sources such as Daily Sports, Sankei Sports, receiving a boost popularity.
Normally if Korean idol groups were to debut in Japan they begin with a showcase in Tokyo however, U-Kiss has taken a different route and started in Osaka.
U-Kiss is not only receiving attention in Japan but also in many other countries. They had visited Malaysia on the 10th and held a showcase. In this showcase more than 10,000 fans* attended, showing the great amount of love and support for U-Kiss. They also had a fan meeting after the showcase to personally greet the fans and give autographs to show their gratitude. During their visit to Malaysia, they had also given scholarship fund to orphan children. They stated, "We're happy because we could spend a nice time with our fans and we felt great to give funding to children who who needed help".

U-Kiss will be releasing 'Bran New Kiss' in Japan on August 24th and they will also have a nationwide tour next year.

*The article states 10,000 people however this is an estimation of attendees for all the events in Malaysia, not just the showcase.

[News] U-Kiss @ Japanese Headlines (Kansai)

Pop group U-Kiss has a high level of interest in into the Japanese market of Japanese media.

Sankei Sports has reported of the authentic advance into the Japanese market.

Preparing for a full-fledged debut in June, U-Kiss took a more unique method for debut. They have decided to debut in the Kansai regions based in Osaka rather than Tokyo. Osaka, the Kansai region of Kyoto, has given base to most of U-Kiss’ plans in Japan. Other male idols are being held up to par in a completely different way from U-Kiss.*

Also parallel to their Japanese activities, they have held a solo showcase in Malaysia on the 10th of this month. The showcase was a great success with more than 10,000 fans on site.

U-Kiss is releasing a Japanese version of their mini-album ‘Bran New Kiss’ and also planning a nationwide tour. Their first official debut is set for December with their first major Japanese single.

*T/N: I think the article means that other idols are being held below par to U-Kiss (ones that debuted in Japan) because U-Kiss took a more unique way of promoting and debuting.

[Twitter] ukisskorea's warning to Japanese Kiss Mes


There is a group of Japanese fans who are constantly following U-Kiss everywhere by taxi and also to their personal homes/dorm, not only in Japan but also in Korea. These actions have caused harm towards the members and managers. We've warned them many times to stop with these actions but they've even retrieved the manager's phone number. They also came to the office, stylist salon and places in Korea which Kiss Mes are forbidden to be at, so we've decided to restrict their access to any events such as fan meetings, fan signings, etc. Even if they are members of Kiss Me 2 (paid Kiss Mes), their privileges to events related to U-Kiss have been revoked. We will be posting an official statement on the homepage as well.
Kiss Mes, we understand that you wish to meet U-Kiss but please refrain from performing actions that may disturb them or we will restrict you from attending any U-Kiss events, in Japan & Korea. Please respect the rules. I am very saddened to announce bad news in such nice weather. ㅠㅠ Please be-careful in the future with this kind of problem. Let's support U-Kiss!!
