Hello Pretty EELs
Repostede from:Jks4ever/tenshi_akuma

The shop “Collecte De Zikzin” just opened in Shibuya, Tokyo on January 11th, 2013. The four-story building opened only the 1st floor, accessory shop “Zikzin”. The items sold at Zikzin shop are JKS’ original brand. They are designed and produced by Jang Keun Suk. It is said the 2nd floor for cafe, 3rd floor for a nail salon and 4th floor for museum. It seems the all floor will open around this Spring. Today’s open wasn’t announced beforehand. Still, there was no official announcement from Frau or Tree-J company. But many eels were visiting before opening the shop. That’s why eels could spot the opening day.

Official website: Collecte De Zikzin
Opening hours: from 11 am to 10 pm, but temporarily from 11 am to 7 pm
Business days: not mentioned the shop holiday yet
Address: 1-15-2, Jinnan, Shibuya, Tokyo
Tel: +81 3-6277-5328
How to access: The shop “Collecte De Zikzin” is located very near “Salt and Tobacco Museum” in Shibuya, Tokyo. It’s easier for you to get there to use this museum as a landmark. About a 12-minute-walk takes you to the shop from JR Shibuya station. I found a map which shows the route to “Salt and Tobacco Museum (1-F)” from Shibuya station. It helps you to reach there. You can print out my hand-made map and close-up one, too ^^

Springsuk_USA’s Note: Actor Jang, Singer Jang, now one more title for Jang Keun Suk, Entrepreneur Jang!

As news reported before Jang Keun Suk had bought property in Shibuya, Tokyo, a multi-stories business building and he told media at a press conference that he would open his own store one day. Today, his first store in Shibuya, the golden area of Tokyo “Collecte De Zikzin” opened, it seems a trial opening or unofficially opening since there was no official announcement at all. But some eels still heard the rumor and they went to the shops, or maybe some by invitation as special guests. Here are from one eels’ weibo posts about the fist day opening. Building has several floors, seems so far only 1st floor is open.

The eels first spotted Jang Keun Suk’s parents and his bodyguard in Tokyo. So we know something is going on.

Ahh, the “Collete De Zikzin” Store!

Springsuk_USA’s note:
The Turkish eels have done a great job of promoting JKS and his own countries diplomats to show how many fans support him in Turkey and the world. See the detail as follows.

Jan 09 2013, there was Korean culture event in Turkey, a Korean Parliamentary came to Turkey to meet Turkish who are interested in Korean Culture. Korean ambassador, Korean culture envoy and Korean culture undersecretary were there. They were asking questions to Turkish about which star they like and what Korean stuff they would like to see in Turkey.

The following report are from our ECI member Mirine Miri about the detail of the meeting:

I told them that we want to see JKS in Turkey and also want to see his dramas on Turkish TV etc…I also told them that we would like to have a Korean TV Channel like KBS Arab or KBS WORLD. He promised me to ask this with KBS. And The Culture Director took a note. (We hope that they will show like “Love Rain” and other JKS dramas on Turkish TV) And the parliamentary told us that he will bring Korean stars to Turkey. After that we showed IHT with JKS ad to Him. The Korean Undersecretary told the parliament. that it ‘s a famous popular newspaper and Turkisheels gave the initial idea for it. He was surprised and said: “wow, let’s take a photo of it.” ) So we took this photo..And Korean reporters took our photos too..

Job well done turkish eels!!

Hello Pretty EELs
cr:lottedfs+Sally Wu YN



Qns : How did you become an actor so young
JKS: It was my parents who started me off this track rather than myself. They helped me find my career earlier on. I don't feel resentful at all about being on this path. I was fortunate to have found my own path much faster with my parent's help

Qns: Jang Keun Suk in 20 years ?
JKS: In 20 years, I will definitely be acting. I'll be old enough to try out various roles. I'll become more responsible by then as well. I'm going to continue to search for what I am good at

Qns: How do you spend your free time ?
JKS: I like meeting friends. I hear about the world completely different from them. Similarly when I meet other celebrity colleagues, I learn from their different perspective.

Qns: Your thoughts on your other self ?
JKS: As I look at myself, I think about what other people especially the fans know of me and what kind of images they have of me. I hope the fans would feel more intimate with me, like an intimate neighbor, rather than to build some kind of fantasy.

Qns: What is your hobby ?
JKS: I like driving alone. Last night, I drove a total of 250KM from seoul to Chuncheon, then to wenju and back to seoul. I enjoy driving with some music. I recently became interested in camping. I bought all the camping equipment but I didn't get to go yet. I was too busy. Instead I cooked an instant ramen at home and just settled with that. Unexpectedly ordinary, am I not ? I do spend very ordinary days. You know friends from middle school ? I would like to have a drink with them - drink so much that I wouldn't even remember the night before.

Qns: What is your nickname that describe you the best ?
JKS: Psycho? Psycho! I do many unpredictably foolish things. I don't mind that nickname, and it's not ordinary. Asia prince is unusual, but psycho is the nickname given by my close childhood friends. And I believe I'm living up to that name.

Jang Keun Suk, who keeps evolving, “Asian Prince”

On the final stage of Asia Tour which attracted 160,000 audience in tatal, Jang Keun Suk, or Keun-chan, sang to fans filled the venue withoug showing any signs of tiredness till the end.

“Keun-chan~!” There are a lot of cheers to him throughout the venue. “Asian Prince” celeberated his self-produced tour “The CRI SHOW2″ final at Saitama Super Arena. He appeared on the stage with plumed hat and decorative costume. After singing the first song, he utters, “I want to eat Kabayaki (grilled eel)~!” Keun−chan’s favorite food is eels so that he calls his fans “eels” with love.

When he talks between songs, of course, he does in Japanese, which he is good at. When he asks to the audience, “Anyone attended last night~?”, many replied, “I did!” Hearing the answer, he said with mischievous smile, “Really!? OK, then, you need another episode today…”

Most songs are from his first album “Just Crazy”. He sings “In my dream” with playing a guitar. Then, he, wearing a tank, sings and dances energetically with dancers. Like this, his performance is ever-changing. In the encore, he appeared as Team H, dance music unit with his friend, Big Brother. He, wearing shorts, was running around the stage and sang new songs.

Hearing his saying “I’ll be back next year with CRI SHOW3! Please look forward to it”, the audience became on fire. Keun-chan always keeps trying a new challenge. What kind of him will he show us?


tenshi_akuma’s note: Below pics are from another news, but the same ones are used in this magazine. I tried to use the original pics, but the quality was’t good enough…

“Welcome to my magic world, eels~! How have you been? I missed you so much. As you eels give your heart, additional encore concert was realized.”

“Eels are… my precious”.
“Today is the final day. I’ll do my best to make a beautiful memory.”

“Even when I get older like a grandfather, I want to hold concert with you!!”

This is the original magazine pages…

This article was on the magazine for well-educated women who are getting old beautifully.
