Tohoshinki to be featured in “VOGUE JAPAN” – April Issue 2018, release on 2018/02/28.
You can pre-order the issue at Amazon Japan: here (on kindle as well).
Please make sure to thank the translator @mystaryunho for her amazing long translation \ (*^ w ^*)/
{p/n: we have arranged the translated text to resemble the original japanese article. For reference, all links are provided in the credits}
`Ode to My Father’, a film in which TVXQ’s Yunho, who also has an active career as an actor, makes an appearance, opens May 16th. Director Yoon Je-Kyoon has responded to our interview during his recent visit to Japan.
TVXQ’s Yunho, whom Vogue Japan has covered many times in the past. debuts on screen (with ‘Ode to My Family’). Though he plays a cameo role that appears briefly, his outstanding presence gives a long-lasting impression. This would owe to the fact that he has been steadily honing his skills as an actor, recently through dramas such as `Queen of Ambition’ and ‘Night Watchmen’s Journal’.
Yunho gives an impassioned performance as famed Korean singer Nam Jin, using dialect. The protagonist Duksoo meets Nam Jin during his dispatchment to Vietnam, and becomes a lifelong fan of his. Amidst the solemn historical background that is the Vietnam War, the mood of the film lightens up in an instant as Nam Jin appears, with his jokes and sprightly use of dialect. We first asked the director about Yunho, who was given the role of such a charming character.
“Casting Yunho was truly a wise decision.”

It was the first time for Changmin-san to have a Champagne shower and he seemed to be enjoying it so much that we had to ask him to control his facial expression (he was just too happy).
I heard that Yunho-san can drink alcohol only a little, but he had one, two, three sips of Champagne.. His hairstylist told him not to drink coz alcohol makes him blushing 🙂
As usual, Yunho-san was singing songs during the photo shoot. When we first met for their Vogue interview in 2010, he sang a lot of songs. He said, “I wanna enjoy while I am working, don’t you agree with me?” Certainly! It is the best to have fun at work.
Changmin-san really loved the texture of the fur. When he took off the jacket, he was wearing a no-sleeve inner shirt that was A-line shaped and very cute. Its too bad that we could not include the whole picture.
For the interview, we had strawberry and assorted danishes on the table. However, Yunho-san chose Melon-pan (pan = bread in JPN). Do you like Melon-pan? I asked him. Yunho-san said, “Yes, I love it. I had it yesterday.”
We wanted to capture scenes when they were writing their autographs. However, the shooting clue was a bit late. Yunho-san and Changmin-san immediately understood the situation without saying anything and took more time to write their autographs. This little incident shows clearly how kind they are. You could feel how attractive they are as they are in TREE DVD.
Melon-pan: Melon-pan is a popular traditional Japanese snack bread. A typical melon-pan is made of a bread dough covered with a thin layer of a cookie dough.

Let’s celebrate the release of Tohoshinki LIVE DVD & Vogue Japan Oct issue together!
written by: Mihoko Iida (@mihokoiida)
Hello, everyone! I am Mihoko Iida from Vogue Japan.
Have you received the Oct issue of Vogue Japan yet?
LIVE DVD [TOHOSHINKI LIVE TOUR 2014 ~TREE~] (8/27 on sale) and Vogue Japan Oct issue (8/28 on sale).
We are so grateful to everyone because we received many exciting tweets and comments every day and night〜♡
Today & finally, we just released a full version of the making film and please, please watch it.
http://www.vogue.co.jp/lifestyle/news/2014-08/27/the-gift-of-celebration
First of all, in order to direct [Celebrate] that was the concept of this shooting, Satoko Fujisaki-san, a wine-stylist, prepared Champagne bottles and a fruits plate.
Actually, Fujisaki-san is the Fujisaki-san who writes a column in Kami-no-shizuku (Drops of God), a legendary comic that is one of Changmin-san’s favorite JPN comics〜. Fujisaki-san knows everything about alcohol, so she taught Changmin-san how to do Champagne shower without a rehearsal (!)
After we finished all the shooting and interview, we revealed Changmin-san who Fujisaki-san is. Changmin-san was so deeply touched and his big eyes even got bigger (1.5 times more!) and asked Fujisaki-san, “Would you mind shaking hands with you?” I can still remember very clearly that Changmin-san shook hands with Fujisaki-san.
During the interview, we took pictures of Tohoshinki and the two of them wrote autographs on them.. here they are. We have three pictures with their autographs for our readers.
Actually, Tabano from our editorial office who helped Tohoshinki to write autographs on the pictures was about 8 months pregnant and her belly was really big. When Yunho-san noticed her, he asked her very kindly, “Pardon me, but are you expecting a baby?” I still remember that too.
The photographer who took pictures this time is the best and well respected Kei Ogata. Ogata-san has kept making legendary photo shoots in Vogue Japan. He took the photos of Vogue Japan 2011 May issue “Friendship of Tohoshinki that is almost equivalent to Love”. Ogata-san met Tohoshinki after there years, he was able to capture much more powerful Tohoshinki in the form of Celebration for us and you all, Tohoshinki-fans. I think he made another legendary photo shoot this time.
We will show you the cute Tohoshinki, the powerful Tohoshinki, and the sexy Tohoshinki through the pages of the Oct issue of Vogue magazine. The making film was shot by Tomono-san and Nakajima-san beautifully and they did not miss anything out. And not to forget about Eri Magara, a writer who also participated in editing. I am really grateful to Magara-san for her speed and sense, and I am really counting on her♡ Magara-san is actually a mother of the tortoise, Gura-chan, with whom Yunho-san and Changmin-san had fond memories of.
I watched the documentary film that was included in the 3rd disk of LIVE DVD [TOHOSHINKI LIVE TOUR 2014~TREE~] (8/27 on sale). and it really brought me tears~.
For their fans who filled the concert venue, Tohoshinki and their staffs kept challenging to their limit.. they looked godly (amazing).. I was so touched by the scene where Yunho-san said earnestly, “The staff of Tohoshinki are my pride~.”
This may be a bit of derail, but I also feel that the energy of our staffs are so very important while I keep working/pursuing my career. Especially people in media has a lot of time spending together with staffs. For me, its really important whether I like them before interviews. Among the staffs, the Tohoshinki’s staffs are the best! they are awesome people. I can tell they work as a team (one) in order to create the best product/stage/photoshoot/etc and make the best memories. Their energy always saves/energizes me and I am really grateful to that. I tried to convey my feelings through the last cut.
In the last cut, I wanted to express, “the sexy Tohoshinki” and I let them try many different posing. Somehow I thought, perhaps one can hold a ring so that we can get a close-up of his hands. However, we did not have a ring for the photo shoot. Then the manager of Tohoshinki took off his ring and he allowed us to use it for the photo shoot. When Changmin-san held the ring, (he/his hands) looked mysterious and very sexy. Thanks to them, we were able to take such a wonderful picture. This is a very special photo where Tohoshinki and their manager were united.
In order to take movies of 15 years Celebration of Vogue that we have already uploaded, Tanifuji-san, a stylist, arranged those cute balloons.
And on Twitter, we were able see props that were used in the planning of this photo shoot, and fan arts where everyone was able to reproduce their poses very precisely (!). and we were very much impressed.
etc and etc.
We were able to make this photo shoot possible because of the effort and hard work of so many people. I also want to thank immensely, all our readers who enjoy this issue with us!
Thank you very much for your support♡
See you in Vogue Japan！

Tohoshinki is scheduled to appear in the October issue of Vogue Japan (release on 140828). This issue includes a making video of the photoshoot and a message from Tohoshinki
Here is a preview of the video, it includes an NG cut of the comment (Yunho said the 10th Anniversary instead of 15th) that’s been edited out from the upcoming Making Video:
+
Also Here are translations of some tweets on the topic by Magara Eri (@magaratta), an Editor:
Which one of them to open the bottle of Champagne, Yunho-san let Changmin-san do it, “Changmin should try/challenge it!” Changmin-san looked a bit nervous but he tried it.
We were able to feel the strong brotherly relationship where they are bonded with trust at the photo shoot.
Changmin-san was a bit concerned/worried about Yunho-san who had Champagne splashed over his face. After finishing the photo shoot, Yunho-san stepped out to wash his face before the interview. Changmin-san said, “Can you wait for him a little? I am sorry.” to show care/respect to the staffs.
“I really had a great experience.” Changmin-san greeted us politely with full smile. “I did my best.” Yunho-sand said. (I am sorry the photo shoot was really a hard one!><) Tortoise and Champagne.. if the photoshoots of Vogue are good memories/experiences for Tohoshinki, that is really great. Thank you very much!
in addition, the comment in the short movie is edited out as a NG scene. The OK scene will be included in the making film so please look forward to it.

Tohoshinki featured in VOGUE JAPAN Oct issue
written by: Mihoko Iida (@mihokoiida)
Hello Everyone, I am Mihoko Iida from Vogue Japan.
Thank you for waiting! Tohoshinki are featured in the Oct issue of Vogue Japan. This year is the 15th anniversary since the first publication of Vogue Japan. The Oct issue is the second special issue for the anniversary. I thank the two of them (Tohoshinki) as well as all the staffs for featuring Tohoshinki for this very special issue!!!
The date, Aug 28th on which the Oct issue will be on sale is coincidentally very close to the date for their Live DVD [Tohoshinki LIVE TOUR 2014 TREE] being on sale. So we decided to celebrate each other splendidly!!! That was the concept behind the shooting this time.
We will show you a glimpse of the behind the shooting scenes.
→http://www.vogue.co.jp/videos/detail/2014-08/25/the-gift-of-celebration
Actually, when we were thinking about the concept of the photoshoot, we initially planned to let Yunho-san open a bottle of Champagne. At the venue, Yunho-san told us, “I had experience in opening bottles of Champagne. So it should be okay!/Do not worry!” And everyone was “ Sounds great!” and counted on him. However, when the photo shoot started, we soon realized that the bubbles of Champagne have to splash from the left to the right to make the photo look the most beautiful. In order to make the possible, they needed to stand in the positions switched from their usual ones. Changmin-san’s hair was parted in the right and his bang was a bit covering over his left eye.. so if he stands on the right, we could not see his face well because his bang was covering his face. So, they needed to keep their usual positions and we were going to let the bubbles of Champagne splash from the right to the left. As soon as we suggested, Yunho-san said, “You know, I have done this before. So this time, Changmin should try it!” Changmin-san looked delighted to hear that and said,”Since I have not done it, I wanna try it!” It looked as if the very kind/caring older brother was letting his younger brother to do the task. They both looked so cute/adorable. However, there were only a limited number of bottles so failure was not really allowed. So I asked Changmin-san, ”Do you want to practice opening a Champagne bottle first?” (I am sorry Changmin-san!). Then Yunho-san pointed out, “If you let him practice, you gonna miss the best shot/best facial expression.” Ohhhh, certainly!!! I understood immediately what Yunho-san said. Subsequently, we were able to take the first shot with a bit of accident where the Champagne directly splashed over Yunho-san’s face (!). Changmin-san was able to experience opening Champagne bottles for a few times. We were able to take the best and cool pictures of Tohoshinki in celebration. After finishing the photo shoot, Changmin-san said, “The last time, we were able to take pictures with the tortoise and this time, we were able to have a Champagne shower.. we really had a good time.” His words touched our heart deeply~. Also, I sincerely thank from my bottom of heart for your wonderful teamwork.
(omit the rest)
