Can't Get Enough of Bae!

Ah Bae Yong Joon, why do you keep on getting handsome everytime you show up? You never fail to surprise us.

Not only Yong Joon made us all happy with his new look, he doubled our enthusiasm when had his message for Secom CF done in his very own home. Photos in the middle wherein Yong Joon is in suit was shot in his home in Seoul.

Above screencaps were from the making of Secom CF. The production crew had to make a replica of Yong Joon's home.

I'm out of words to describe Yong Joon in this Secom CF....argh! But one thing for sure he is a

CERTIFIED CHARMING MAN!

thanks to http://cafe.daum.net/byjfan , laki and aevia for the photos

I got hit by an arrow again (",)

Yong Joon's newest CF in Japan is out. Boy oh boy, he is so breathtakingly handsome in the photos that were posted in KOB and Quilt. Sigh... Yong Joon makes my heart running wild.

I love it when he doesn't smile...

I love it when he smiles...

And I just love this man smiling or not.

In tomato99's translation in Quilt, she wrote that the house created for the CF is similar to Yong Joon's own house. Great! The closes we can get to his house. Been trying endlessly to download the vod but it seems that traffic is so heavy. But i'll definitely wait patiently to download the vod and hoping that someone will upload a new link using wmv instead of asx.

This week is full of Bae Yong Joon and I love it! It's a distraction but a welcome distraction.

Hear Ye! Hear Ye! His Royal Handsomeness

Oh my God, this man is really magnificent!


His new photo from the meeting of "Great King and Four Gods" last Saturday made so many hearts beating so fast. After posting his latest photo in BYJ's Quilt everyone got so excited and the usual Sunday silence in Baeland became an active one. Some of the remarks after posting the photo in Quilt were really hillarious.

One latest photo of Yong Joon makes a BIG difference.

There is something in the photo that makes one grasp for air. Is it the smile? The coat? The long beautiful hair? The v-neckline? The small part of that beautiful chest that is peeking? The way he stands tall with the rest in the photo? What?!

Oh my, oh my Yong Joon you take my breath away.

Cosmopolitan Feb 2006 Issue

The first man to ever grace the cover of Cosmopolitan (Chinese Edition). Wow, what an honor for Bae Yong Joon and his fans.

I love all of Yong Joon's shots in this magazine. The photographer did a wonderful job. The go-bold-with-color, mixed with Yong Joon's basic accessory which is his adorable smile, transformed Yong Joon into a new version of Romeo in this February (Valentine's) issue of Cosmopolitan.


The jacket that Yong Joon jazzed up with old jeans and a t-shirt gave a punk edge look and it fits him to a "T".

[Music Box] Because of You...

It's a song composed by Keith Martin and sang by our very own Kayla. I find the lyrics of this song perfectly fits my feeling for Yong Joon.

If ever you wonder, if you touched my soul, yes you do..
Since i met you i'm not the same
You bring life to everything i do
Just the way you say hello
With one touch i can't let go
Never thought i'd falling inlove with you
*because of you, my life has changed
thank you for the love & the joy you bring
because of you..i feel no shame
i'll tell the world it's because of you
Sometimes i get lonely
And all i gotta do is think of you
You've captured something inside of me
You make all of my dreams come true
it's not enough that you love me for me
You reached inside & touched me eternally
I love you best explains How i feel for you
[repeat * ]
my life has changed
thank you for the love & the joy you bring
because of you.. i feel no shame
i'll tell the world it's because of you
The magic in your eyes true i can't deny
When you hold me,i just lose control
I want you to know
That i'm never letting go
You mean so much to me,i want the world to see
It's because of you.....
[repeat * except last line]
[repeat *] you..you....

I have the mp3 of this song and would have wanted to share with all of you so that you could listed to it, but i can't find a host. Anyway, once i've a host i'll let you listed to this wonderful song.

Art Attack

Last year, spending a lot of time cooped up at home in front of my computer waiting for BYJ news definitely chucked up my daydream quota *winks*. While toning down my socializing with friends, I was left to explore a new territory. You think it sucks? Nope, especially when the subject is Bae Yong Joon.

Well, despite being stuck at home with nothing to do except surfing the net and watching k-dramas, i discovered a fun way to ease out of my stuck-at-home rut. I started to explore my little knowledge in Photoshop. And, here are some of my work ~

Signature banners

I call this siggy "kimchi banner" because these k-men are "HOT".
But amongst them, BYJ is the hottest.


Wallpapers/Postcards


I also did avatars, GIFs and 2 vods which i cannot find from my files. Hopefully, I'll be able to find time again to do artworks since there are so many awesome photos of Yong Joon from his recent trips to Asia.

Must-have Bae Yong Joon Items

Ho hum, i love to have this cool items! Believe it or not even the magazines which definitely I will not understand at all, I still want to have. The only item I have from these photos is the AS DVD which I got from YesAsia. When AS was still in the process of shooting, I already put on to my wish list AS DVD, Making and OST. I’ve the Making and OST since November which was given to me by my bestfriend as a birthday gift. I got my AS Limited Edition just last week and it's worth buying!

Cool Stuff!!!
(I had mine delivered last week. ^^)

Gotta have this!!!

I love them!!!
Gottta have even one!

Cool!!! My 2005 Diary is well kept ^^ .

I want! I want!
I love to see more Beijing photos!


Aside from having the above items, I’m already saving money for “Great King and Four Gods” Premium DVD set which I know will not come as cheap.

Oh, btw, who says that being a BYJ fans is easy. Well, actually it is in some ways but, buying his items is not.

Physical Look...Sex Appeal...Both

What attracts us to Bae Yong Joon? Is it his physical look? His sex appeal?

Wait, isn't it that physical look and sex appeal the same? Uhm, I thought so too for sometime, but they are not. There are some who has the look but lack the appeal. Others lack the look but they have that "X" factor.

Yong Joon exudes a certain look, a particular effortless style and carries himself very well. These qualities already lead us to love him. But is it all physical beauty?

What about sex appeal?

According to Sophia Loren"Sex appeal is 50% what you've got and 50% what people think you've got," and Freedictionary.com defines it as "power to interest or attract." You think Yong Joon has it? Sex appeal is actually not only about the look, but likewise what is within. I believe Yong Joon also exudes confidence, intelligence, generosity and sensitivity which makes him more appealing.

Beauty and sex appeal are now co-existent. It's not only one's face that makes one attractive. Beauty and personality are entertwined. Physical beauty is synonymous with inner beauty. I believe that what is attractive now is someone who is natural, who has individual style and who knows what he wants. Who could this person be? Yup, your guess is good as mine...Bae Yong Joon.

Bae Yong Joon possesses the amazing gift of the "overall package." I believe that the combination of good look and appeal is what holds that attraction.

Physical Look + Sex Appeal = Bae Yong Joon = Power

What if?

Since yesterday I've been reading about Eric's accident from the shooting of his latest drama. The account of his accident seems to be serious. But after reading more updates, i learned that Eric is already out of danger and so does his co-star, but shooting will be put on hold. (Photo on the left, is actual photo of Eric at the hospital.)

The accident of Eric made me think of Yong Joon and his upcoming drama 'Great King and Four Gods'. From what we have read so far, it was written that GKFG will have many fighting scenes and Yong Joon will be riding a horse. We all know that Yong Joon wants to do his stunts by himself. By doing so, mishaps small or big are bound to happen. No matter how hard a person is to train, accidents do happen. Thought of Yong Joon in an accident already gives me a chill. Regardless how much insurance he will have during the shooting of GKFG, Yong Joon in an accident still gives me the creep.

I remember when 'April Snow' had its wrapped up shooting. When everyone went home Yong Joon collapsed due to fatigue and that incident made me worry so much about him. I remember that I stopped working and would frequently refresh all the windows in my pc just to see if there were updates on Yong Joon's condition. BOF's immediate notice to fans somehow made thing easy. Likewise, their frequently updating made "life" easier for us during those times.

But what if...?


I guess, there is really nothing we can do about Yong Joon doing his own stunts in GKFG. No matter how some fans write about the danger or give pieces of advice not to do dangerous stunts
. The best that we can do is to offer prayer for his safety.

Nov 8, 2005 ~ The Day Yong Joon "Secretly" Arrived in Seoul

I know, I know this entry is 2 months late. At any rate, I still want to write something about it.

After staying for a long time in Japan, Yong Joon finally decided to return to Seoul to prepare for his upcoming Beijing trip. The supposedly secret arrival turned into a "chaos" especially to his security staff when Yong Joon arrived together with famous soccer players from Korea.

The media got the scoop of Yong Joon's arrival because it was not only kept as a secret to his fans, he was also sporting a new look.

Yong Joon : Hmm, what should I do now,
there are so many media around. Had I known
that they'll be arriving the same time as me, I
would have delayed my flight.

Could Yong Joon be asking for SOS from Mgr Yang
when he learned that a group of media is covering
the arrival of famous soccer players?

Yong Joon's security are having a hard time
covering him from the media while he dials from
his phone and wait for his car to take him away
from the airport.

Yong Joon flashing his beautiful smile despite being
caught by the media at the airport. Security at
the back is trying to cover BYJ's face using his hand
fromthe photographer's camera.

Yong Joon trying to cover his new look from
the photographers.

Yong Joon's securitymen look to be having an attack of allergy.
They seem to be scratching their nape and head just to cover BYJ.
But look, they're not successful in doing so. Yong Joon's
beautiful nose and lips were still caught by the photographer.


Two days after arriving in Seoul, Yong Joon boarded another plane last November 11 to Beijing, China for the promo tour of "April Snow".
