SJ-M expresses desire to work with Andy Lau
Popular South Korean group Super Junior’s subunit SJ-M came to
Hong Kong the other day to participate in the Asian-Pop Music Festival;
it was the first time that SJ-M came to Hong Kong with a new lineup
after ex-group leader Han Geng had left the group, and new member
Eunhyuk did not deny that he wanted to take the opportunity to do some
sight-seeing around Hong Kong. SJ-M, which has been established for 3
years, showed significant improvement in their command of the Chinese
language, and they expressed their wish to work with the Hong Kong
artsits, even listing Andy Lau as their first choice! During
the interview the other night, SJ-M, which had transformed into an
8-membered group, expressed that they were very delighted to be able to
come to Hong Kong this time, as they have not set foot in the country
for almost two years, andthat they missed the Hong Kong fans a lot. In
addition, Eunhyuk expressed that he came to Hong Kong before for the
sake of their concerts and also as the filming location for their
photobook, (and said that) “Since I was
young, I’ve heard a lot of stories from others that the night view of
Hong Kong is very breathtaking, I hope that I would have the chance to
take a look myself.” As for Chinese member Zhou Mi, he
said that although he “lives” close by, but he also expressed that he
would like to try the gourmet food in Hong Kong. Aside from
that, Sungmin, whom is also setting foot in Hong Kong under the
identity of an SJ-M member for the first time, also said that after
joining SJ-M, the most unforgettable moment was when they were filming
for the MV of their new song “Perfection”, because they had a Korean
and a Chinese version each, so it was really taxing to film two MVs on
the same day. Kyuhyun feels happy while listening to Jay Chou’s song Using
Chinese, Kyuhyun said that in their new album 《Perfection》 this time,
the song that he loves the most is 《Love Is Sweet》 (《幸福微甜》), which was
composed by Jay Chou, “because when I listen to the melody of the song I
feel very blessed, so I like it a lot. (However) it’s very difficult
to sing to, and the lyrics are really fast.” Nevertheless, he praised that the emotions in Siwon’s interpretation (of the song) was
very good. SJ-M also mentioned that, if they had the chance, they
would like to work with Andy Lau, and laughed while pointing out that
“We want to allow Andy Lau and Henry Lau to work together”*.
Zhou Mi also pointed out that he really likes Kay Tse and Joey Yung,
and hopes that they are able to have a duet with the Hong Kong female
artists in their next album. Donghae invites fans to meet in dreams SJ-M
has been established for almost three years, and the members’ command
of the Chinese language have shown significant improvement, and when
asked who was the most fluent (in the language),
Siwon revealed that, “Actually each of the members are good in saying
different things; for example, Donghae is the best in basic
conversational Chinese, while Kyuhyun is more familiar with literature
and poetic phrases, and I’m good in business-related words.” Ryeowook
added that, perhaps it was because he was also involved in composing, so
whenever he records an album in Chinese, his pronunciation will
automatically become more natural than the previous time. Zhou Mi’s
Cantonese also showed a vast improvement, and could converse quite
fluently (in the dialect). Aside from that, Eunhyuk expressed that there would be times where they would use the wrong language in different places, (saying that) “There was one time when I went to Italy, and I said ‘xie xie’**,
and while working in the country, I would sometimes accidentally speak
in Japanese. There are also times where I would mix several languages
together.” Ryeowook and Donghae also showed off their
abilities in speaking the Chinese language at the scene. Ryeowook
turned to the fans and said, “In order to get closer to everyone, we
will do our best to participate in more television programmes,
fanmeetings, performances and more, hope that everyone will support us,
thank you everyone.” Donghae, on the other hand, and expressed
affectionately that, “Tonight, when everyone is asleep, then come into
my dreams. When you want to watch concerts and programmes, you have to
purchase the tickets and queue up (for the shows).
But if you come into my dreams, you don’t have to purchase tickets nor
queue up. When you come into my dreams, please give me a call, thank
you everyone, good night.” It is believed that the fans will definitely
go to bed early, and anticipate Donghae’s appearance. On the other
hand, SJ-M, who hasn’t met the fans in Hong Kong through shows in a
long while, hopes that they would be able to meet with the fans, and
pointed out that if they release their 5th album, they would hold some
activities (in Hong Kong). *
For those who can’t really get the joke, it’s because Andy Lau’s (Liu
De Hua/刘德华) and Henry’s (Liu Xian Hua/刘宪华) Chinese names only differ by
virtue of the middle character.
** Xie Xie = thank you in Chinese.
