There's a birthday bus prepared by Taecyeon's Chinese fans roaming in Seoul starting today up to January 14, in honor of Taec's 28th birthday.

Lotte Duty Free just released a music video as a year-ender. All the models of Lotte Duty Free participated, 2PM's part starts at 2:02 while ShinHye's starts at 3:22. So sad that Taec and Shinhye did not have a scene together :OMG , only at the end when all the models are present. :-V

11 Confessions From Our Favorite Idols That You Probably Never Knew


image-142.jpeg


Taecyeon has a habit of ripping off his shirt mid-performance. According to JYP Entertainment's head choreographer, this was actually never the case. He confessed that the 2PM members were initially against the shirt-ripping choreography but after much persuasion, eventually convinced them. Once they noticed the positive response from fans, Taecyeon kept ripping off his shirt even when he wasn't supposed to.



He told us he got a text message from Taecyeon after one of the performances saying, "Hyung I'm sorry, I got caught up in the moment and ripped my shirt off again."

@ journoexpat - I couldn't have said it any better.......I agree with you and fgnuva 100%. I find him an extraordinary, likable and engaging young man!

Hi Sis@Sidy, so nice of you to drop by. Hope work load has eased up a bit.

And to you Sis@fgnuva, thanks for that Taec's pic at Oksunbong farm :)

Here's another shot of Taec without make-up and candid :)

Just finished watching the 2 parts of the documentary. It's a good 80-90 minute show... and it's well done too! The emcees and Taecyeon's descriptions of his experiences... explaining things to the hosts. And he wears that sad, almost worried look which the lady host kind of picks up. He seems to wear it the whole time... during the show.

In the documentary his light-hearted personal picks up when he takes the girl shopping, when he's talking to the boys in the mine (is that lithium?) and when he's meeting the kids in the school, and passing the tokens to them.

All in all the show was well-done...balance between the actual footages and the interview with the "eyewitness" (Taecyeon).

(Sidebar: He could very well pursue a political career or humanitarian kind of work. could he be a UN Secretary-General of the future? I'd say he'll definitely qualify. What do you think sisters @journoexpat, @yummiejeu, @sidy, @martchcec15, @avrylle, and other dear sisters reading this?)

I think you're right sis@journoexpat, it is a series, and the next one is with Son Ho-jun who appeared in 3 Meals. His documentary is set in Africa, I think.. and it's child labor still.

Hope everyone is safe and is having a good rest for the past week's labor. Happy week-end sisters!


I actually was able to stream the documentary continually because I was at the office and every time, someone would approach my workstation, I had to stop watching but thanks to your links sis@fgnuva, I was able to watch the entire docu.

My favorite part was when he wiped the boy's sweat using the end of the sleeve of his shirt and that boy's smile was shy but heartfelt as if it was the first time that someone did that for him. I am proud of Taecyeon for he was able to use his status as a celebrity to give attention to child labor in Bolivia, especially after its government legalized child labor in 2014, allowing a child as young as 10 years old to work legally.

But his documentary focused on the more hard labor for children: children in construction sites and children in the mine sites, which for me is the worst kind of child labor, specially if the use of dynamite is involved and with absence of proper gear such as masks, boots and gloves as the safety and health of the kids are seriously jeopardized.

I really wish that Taec will someday realize his dream of making a difference in the world by helping create awareness in some issues using his status as a celebrity.

Thanks sis@marthcec15 for the pics of the birthday bus and the Lotte video. Wow! So delightful and really well-made. Impressive (tho am not a fan of duty free shops and just plain shops and shopping per se). Nice to see our Oksunbong couple even if not in the same segment. And nice to see also some other fave actors (KSH whose old drama Moon embracing the Sun I just watched the past 3 days, yes sisters marathon drama watching for 3 days ha! ha! and LMH - both looked well). Am quite disappointed though why there was no close-up shot of Taecyeon or was he the one pouring sand in the bottle? I couldn't so much as make him out in the dance segment as it was too short and the shot was taken from afar. No, not that I'm complaining...it's good enough 2PM was in the advertisement video.
Catchy music too isn't it? Easy to remember... And lyrics rhyming and rhythmical melody. I'd say it's well-done really.
Thanks again sis@marthcec15

BTW sis @marthcec15 what is the birthday bus for? Do people get free rides or it's just an advertisement of Taecyeon's birthday?
I wonder is it quite expensive - oh I suppose as nothing is cheap anymore. It'll run around the city (Seoul?) announcing his birthday.. And for a whole month too huh?
He's that well-loved by Chinese fans. Nice gesture.
I hope though more and more in the future Taecyeon might rally his following to put their into other good uses (such as charity if not in SKorea since it seems to be a prosperous country in Central & South America, Africa and South Asia).

Oh I watched the Lotte ad a couple of times bit by bit. Yes Taecyeon was I the one in blue shirt putting sand in the bottle and throwing it. His hairstyle was just a bit different. And he was right in front too in one dance sequence.
Oh yes one Oksunbong's favorite lady guest is also in it - Choi Ji Woo.
I am not familiar with the other male actor/singer and the other 2 boy groups/dancers.
Nonetheless everything was well produced and edited. Of course the ad is for the affluent viewers in the society so it should be well done as it is.
Have a nice Tuesday everyone! Even if there seems to be no end to our tasks. :)

I quite agree sis @journoexpat. Taecyeon is at a position where he can really use his influence to bring awareness about things that need to be changed or improved.
I am not sure whether there is immediate and substantial impact when celebs are asked to be advocates for humanitarian issues. Princess Di, George Clooney, Angelina Jolie and others even the late Michael Jackson gave speeches and endorsements for attention to many similar situations. There is usually a high media coverage and wide publication at first then am not sure what happens after.
With Taecyeon's documentary will create a stir and maybe it'll be the start of some work in that side of the world. Am still not clear what the objective of the documentary, there was a number being flashed on screen I was thinking were they asking people to phone in donations perhaps?

this pic came up on my fb page.

sisters, our favorite national son-in-law sleeping...someone captured this and it looks like he is sleeping on a real bed this time... my concern is... while we like it, isn't this a bit of an invasion of privacy?

And then there's this item:
"TRANS] Taecyeon is chosen as "Son of the Year" in Lady Gyunhyang (Women's magazine) for having it all~ physique, brain & bingu image~
