JYJ Nearing Thirty, Becoming Deeper People Making Deeper Music

Five years have already passed since the three members of JYJ started their group. JYJ debuted in 2010 with their first album "The Beginning," but they've already been in the industry for 10 years, including the years they spent as TVXQ.

The cute boys have now turned into men looking to their thirties. One thing for sure is that both the people and their music have become deeper throughout the years.

JYJ held a press conference for their 2014 Asia tour concert "THE RETURN OF THE KING" on August 15 in Hong Kong. The three seemed more comfortable and calm than anxious and nervous.

The members met on this day at the press conference were much more mature than they were before. They still joked around with each other but all the words that they said were full of meaning and deep thought.

They revealed that they were not scared or worried about getting old. They said that they couldn't believe they were almost 30 and asked, "Are we old now?," arousing laughter.

Junsu said, "I want to be in my thirties. I think men become cooler when they're in their thirties. They may look better in their twenties but the learning and maturing comes when they're in their thirties."

Jaejoong said that he could feel his body getting old in that he gets bad hangovers, bringing laughter to the conference. He said, "I am now seeing a glimpse of the fact that I'm getting old. I think when I'm 35 or 40 and I realize that I can't dance anymore, that's when I'll realize that I'm old."

Yoochun said that he feels his old age when he meets people and things to be thankful for are increasing. He said, "Talking to people and meeting them is like filling in gaps of my life. I've been really thankful for my fans and the staff that work with me. I think that's what getting old means."

JYJ members who became deeper, more humble, and more thankful throughout the years. We send them applause for the things they've overcome and the things they will overcome in the future, whether together or individually.
