Choi Wheesung (I on't Know What I am Thinking until I Type This)

Choi Wheesung (최휘성,) is a Korean R&B Singer but in his stage name he usually called by Wheesung or Real Slow (???) He was born in Seoul, Korea on February 5, 1982. This year (2009) he is turned to 27. *Just count it :p*

Start of his debut!!
Wheesung began his career in 1999 with the short lived Korean boy band, A4. He left after the band's first album debut, citing musical differences between himself and the other members of the band. After being released from A4, he signed onto M Boat, a former sister company to YG Entertainment. He underwent a few years of vocal training under the label and released his first solo album Like A Movie in 2002. The album became very popular after receiving praise from many well-known artists, including Seo Taiji and Shin Seung Hun. In 2003, he released his second album, It's Real. It proved to be as popular as his first, making him the best selling artist of 2003 in Korea. Unlike his debut album, It's Real wasn't restricted to R&B and it included different musical elements like pop and hip-hop. Wheesung left YG Entertainment after his contract expired in March 2006. He signed a new contract that is reportedly worth 1.5 million won with his new company Orange Shock Agency. It was stated that he will be composing and producing more with his new company giving him more freedom to do so.

Korean Cover of Craig David's Insomnia (I LOVE THIS REALLY YOU MUST WATCH IT!)

In late 2008, Wheesung was asked by British R&B artist Craig David to record the Korean version of his hit single Insomnia. The music video was released on February 17, 2009 and Wheesung's comeback performance was broadcast by Mnet on February 19. The Korean from Wheesung version is cool!

Princess Princess

Princess Princess (プリンセス·プリンセス, Purinsesu Purinsesu) is the title of a fictional series written and illustrated by Japanese author Mikiyo Tsuda about the lives of three high school boys and the school they attend. The series is contained within multiple media pieces which began as a manga first serialized in the manga magazine Wings starting in 2002. After the first manga series ended, a sequel entitled Princess Princess + started serialization in the same magazine in May 2006, and finished in January 2007. An anime has since been adapted from the manga and began airing in Japan on April 5, 2006, produced by the Japanese animation studio, Studio Deen. A live action adaptation called Princess Princess D aired in Japan from June 28, 2006 to September 13, 2006. Finally, a visual novel video game for the Playstation 2 based on the series was released on October 26, 2006 in Japan.

Princess Princess is a story revolving around the lives of three boys chosen to dress up as girls at the all-boy school they attend, which also just happens to be the most elite school in the area. The main protagonist, Toru Kouno, has just transferred to a new all-boys school, Fujimori, after living with his uncle for a time. He is one such boy chosen to be one of the Hime (姫) or "Princesses", which is a tradition at the school in order to break up the monotony of life surrounded by nothing but males. Students (based on certain qualifications) are selected to be Princesses and are made to dress up as girls and attend school functions like this.

At the beginning of the story, there are already two such Princesses, Yuujiro Shihodani and Mikoto Yutaka, known as the Western Princess and Eastern Princess respectively, due to their room location. Toru is convinced into becoming a Princess soon after entering the school though once he accepted the job, he found it to be much more enjoyable than he thought.

Kuroshitsuji

Kuroshitsuji, which translates to “Black Butler,” is the heart-warming tale of young boy and his demon butler, set in London in the late 1800s. Ciel Phantomhive, in a fit of Faustian desperation, offers a demon his soul in exchange for help avenging his murdered parents and the ensuing hell that he endured afterward.

First off, this show has some great characters. The demon butler, Sebastian, is practically perfect in every way. Like Mary Poppins… from HELL. Sebastian can do it all; cook, clean, pour the perfect cup of tea, tame demon dogs, and violently eliminate large sums of people who would harm the “Young Master.” Plus he’s very easy on the eyes; overall one hell of a butler. Ciel is definitely a unique character. He’s one of the precious few angst-ridden characters living for revenge that doesn’t annoy the audience. I know what you’re thinking. It shouldn’t be possible. There’s some cosmic anomaly that prevents a large percentage of anime fans from liking those angsty characters, but somehow Ciel’s attitude isn’t obnoxious. Ciel aside, most of the characters are likeable and quirky, adding a great deal of humor to an otherwise dark show.

Coming in at only 24 episodes, Kuroshitsuji is lucky to be short enough that the animators didn’t cut too many corners and the quality of the animation remains consistently good. Though a few bright colors are incorporated into the animation, the show’s style remains generally dark with muted colors. Enhancing the style of the show is a detailed wardrobe of fancy Gothic & Lolita-like ensembles that suffice as 19^th century clothing. I’m not an expert, so I can’t say if the wardrobe is accurate to the Victorian age, but it’s nice to look at and makes for some really fantastic cosplaying opportunities (and since it’s anime, accuracy to real-life is hardly relevant).

Kurshitsuji has an above-average soundtrack. Given London’s role as port-of-trade, it’s little wonder that Kuroshitsuji finds ways to integrate characters from all over the world, which leads to a big variety of quality music throughout the show. Indian and Chinese music, Italia arias; Kuroshitsuji seems to have the best music to fit the scene and characters, which definitely pumps up the action in the show. And the music can get pretty creepy when it needs to be. If you watch the whole show and aren’t slightly traumatized by the song “London Bridge is Falling Down,” then you are a stronger soul than I. Seriously, no good comes of that song. The opening song, “Monochrome Kiss” by SID is nice and upbeat, but the first opening sequence is a little disappointing since it only features Ciel and Sebastian. The second opening sequence has the same song, but shows more characters, including some villains, which gives a much better idea of what the show is about. The first ending sequence is downright adorable, which you wouldn’t think would fit a dark series, but the content is so appropriate that it works. Combined with the upbeat “I’m Alive” by BECCA (a singer/songwriter from Portland), it’s an overall nice ending. The second ending sequence does more to match the dark tones that become dominant in the second half of the series. The second ending song is Lacrimosa by Kalafina, a beautiful and depressing song, fitting since Lacrimosa is Latin for “weeping.”

It’s not a review from TheCat until I’ve blathered on about seiyuu (voice actors). Ono Daisuke provides the smooth voice of Sebastian. You probably heard Ono as Koizumi Itsuki in the Melancholy of Suzumiya Haruhi, a role that more or less launched him into stardom. Award-winning seiyuu Paku Romi also graces the cast as Lady Red (yeah, there are awards for seiyuu). Romi is famous for her roles as Temari in Naruto, Hitsugaya in Bleach, Edward Elric in Fullmetal Alchemist, Nana Osaki in Nana, and oh so much more. Most of the Romi’s biggest roles are young men or brash young women, so it’s refreshing to hear her play a mature woman. Other voice actors in Kuroshitsuji include Yasumoto Hiroki (Sado in Bleach, Germany in Axis Powers Hetalia), Fukuyama Jun (Kimihiro in xxxHolic, Lelouch in Code Geass), and Suwabe Junichi (Fuuma in X, Grimmjow in Bleach, Archer in Fate/staynight). But the biggest name in the show is Ciel’s seiyuu; the ever-talented Sakamoto Maaya. If you don’t already know the reputation of this singer/seiyuu, she’s the magic behind Hitomi in Escaflowne (as well as the singer of the show’s intro song), Reika in RaXephon, Crona in Soul Eater, Haruhi in Ouran High School Host Club, and Aerith in FFVII: Crisis Core. She also did the ending song for Wolf’s Rain, which I hope you’ve had the pleasure of watching. Kuroshitsuji was my first time hearing Maaya voice a male character, so it was first startling to realize who it was playing Ciel, and just how amazing her vocal range is.

If you’re waiting for me to start on the English voice actors, I’m afraid you’ll have to wait for the show to actually get licensed in the US. Kuroshitsuji is still fairly new in Japan, and American fans are just starting to hear about it. My guess is that the license will be snatched up sometime in July, when the American anime companies will have the chance to screen the show or at least get an idea of how big the existing fanbase already is, at the US’ two biggest anime conventions (Anime Expo in CA and Otakon in MD). For the time being, Kuroshitsuji can be watched in fansub form, or in raw Japanese if you’re proficient.

The thing that sets Kuroshitsuji apart from a lot of other shows, especially the over-hyped shounen anime that most people (myself included) have gotten used to, is just how damn dark it is. It’s a show where evil triumphs… and that’s a good thing. It’s a show that isn’t afraid to kill off characters. And just when you start thinking that maybe Sebastian, for all his demonic powers, isn’t such a bad guy, his utter apathy for the death that unfolds around him shocks the viewer back into the realization that the hero of the show is just plain evil. In fact, it seems that most of the characters are shady bastards with hidden agendas, leaving the audience rooting for the forces of evil. Ah, the refreshing feeling of evil winning. [insert maniacal laughter here]

In most anime worlds, revenge is a fruitless endeavor that never fulfills the way the avenger hopes it will. Most anime, especially shounen anime, exist under the assumption that good will always triumphant over evil (eventually) and that fighting in the name of friendship, honor, or for the sake of others will guarantee victory. So that must make Kuroshitsuji the opposite of shounen anime. The hatred and revenge that dominate Ciel’s heart is what drives Sebastian’s loyalty, and as long as their contract remains, Sebastian’s demonic strength will overcome any of Ciel’s enemies. So, the moral of the story is, live for hatred and a demon will make all your wishes come true. Selling your soul for the win! But I guess when the hero of the show is a demon, evil is going to win over good… and everything else.

Another tidbit about Kuroshitsuji that I find interesting; it was clearly made before the manga was finished (the manga is still ongoing), so the anime director had to basically make up half of the show. This would normally result in a bunch of plotless filler episodes, but Kuroshitsuji manages to tie-in the events of almost every episode in the end. Thus Kuroshitsuji has a very solid plot and direction, despite not following the manga. It wastes little of its 24 episodes and keeps a nice pace, never dragging out or rushing any of the major events.

Hell Girl (地獄少女 ,Jigoku Shōjo), also known as Jigoku Shoujo: Girl from Hell in Animax Asia's English-language television broadcasts,^{[citation needed]} is an anime series, produced by Aniplex and Studio Deen. It premiered across Japan on numerous television stations, including Animax, Tokyo MX, MBS and others, between October 4, 2005 and April 4, 2006. Following the success of the first season, the series was followed soon after into a second, Jigoku Shōjo Futakomori (地獄少女 二籠 ), which premiered October 7, 2006 across Japan on Animax.^{[citation needed]} A live-action television series adaptation started airing in Japan on Nippon Television from November 4, 2006.^{[citation needed]} A third season of the anime, further continuing the series, was first announced on the mobile version of the series' official website Jigoku Tsūshin.^[1] The official title of the third season was announced to be Jigoku Shōjo Mitsuganae (地獄少女 三鼎 ).^[2] and began airing on Japanese TV October 4, 2008.^[3]

PLOT

Most episodes are self-contained short stories in which the series narrates the suffering of a different individual caused by one or more antagonists. In general during each arc, the protagonists' dramas are explained in detail from the start of their grudges, through the escalation of their torment until it becomes unbearable and they resort to accessing the Hell Correspondence website. Although in general, the client gives the antagonist a chance, he or she usually ends up pulling the string on his or her doll and sending the antagonist to hell. Once they have pulled the string

, before taking the antagonist to hell, Ai Enma punishes the person for his or her sins with the help of her companions.

In the first season, the story soon follows a journalist named Shibata Hajime, a former blackmailer, and his daughter Tsugumi who shares a strange connection with the Jigoku Shōjo as they investigate the truth behind the Jigoku Shōjo. In the second season, a mysterious young girl from Hell, named Kikuri is introduced who is able to travel freely between Earth and the Twilight realm where Ai resides. Later, the plot centers around Takuma Kurebayashi, a boy who is blamed by his townsfolk for causing disappearances around the town that are in reality caused by the townsfolk using the Hell Correspondence. In the third season, some time after Ai's death, Kikuri returns along with a yokai named Yamawaro, who accepts an old offer from Ai to become her fourth assistant. The story follows Ai mysteriously revival from death and subsequent inhabitation of the body of a young schoolgirl, Yuzuki Mikage.

The Summary for ep.1

A round ball of light bounces through the city, as various events occur aro

und the Jigoku Tsushin. Ren sees a strange boy appear before him in a bathhouse, Kikuri reappears before Wanyudo, and Hone sees a vision of Ai when a butterfly lands in front of her in a bar. At a certain school later, three girls get into trouble with their teacher Tange when he finds out that they are passing notes. Having heard bad rumors about Tange, the girl named Itsuka later suggests that they need to take measures against him for their futures. Because of her father’s influence, the girl named Akie is given responsibility for dealing with most of this. As Kikuri returns to the Jigoku Tsushin with him in the meantime, the young boy from earlier is revealed to be named Yamawaro. He address Kikuri as “hime” while he assists with her childish desires. Mikage Yuzuki, one of the girls from earlier, sees a strange vision while in the bath that night. Ai appears out of the water, dragging her into it and sharing a kiss with her. Yuzuki puts this off as a dream afterwards, but unknown to her, a butterfly has wrapped around her back.

The next day, Akie re

veals that her father could not do anything because of the lack of proof against Tange. She doesn’t believe him to be a bad person either, so she leaves the other two girls without much thought. Itsuka still believes their situation is serious, however, so she convinces Yuzuki to accompany her in creating evidence against Tange. The two girls go to a love hotel that night, as Itsuka plans to take a picture of Tange when he passes. Yuzuki successfully shoots when Itsuka approaches who she believes is Tange, but this ironically turns out to be her father. With this, both of Itsuka’s parents appear in wonder of what she is doing in such a place. This brings Itsuka to the Jigoku Tsushin website that night, where she types in Tange’s name. Itsuka meets Ai as expected, who presents her with a doll that has a red string wrapped around it. She explains that by pulling the string, her enemy would be sent to hell. However, she would also follow after she died. Itsuka cannot believe these circumstances, but she reappears in her room with the doll before she can say any more. Yuzuki wakes from this vision, believing it to be another dream, but Ai appears to tell her that she is actually inside of her.

Itsuka continues to act rebellious at school the next day, even listening to her mp3 player in class. When Tange takes this from her, she runs out of the classroom in rage. While she looks through several places that afternoon in search for her mp3 player, T

ange appears to tell her that he has already cast it aside. Itsuka reveals what she has heard about Tange refusing to pass students that he does not like, guessing that he plans to do the same to her. Tange states that this is impossible, but Itsuka brings out her doll before he can suggest anything else. Yuzuki appears just in time to see Itsuka pull the string, then feeling pain as Ai bursts from her body. With this, the Jigoku Tsushin appear to torture Tange and bring him to hell. When Yuzuki reappears in her reality, she finds that Itsuka has a round mark below her neck. When Akie shows up as well, however, she reveals that Tange had given her Itsuka’s mp3 player to return. Further more, there are doodles in the notebook Tange always seemed to write bad notes into. In the end, Tange really wasn’t a bad person.

Hell Correspondence

The medium through which a client contacts Ai Enma has changed over the centuries. Initially clients would write the names of that whom they hated in a three-column newspaper advertisment. After which, clients could enter names into a BBS that was programmed in BASIC. When the internet became available, people access the a website known as the "Hell Correspondence" (地獄通信 ,Jigoku Tsūshin) or the "Hotline to Hell". Soon after, the site was adapted into a mobile version that could be accessed from cell phones.^[4]

Each medium can only be used at midnight by one who harbors a desire for revenge against their object of hatred. Should someone submit the name of someone against whom they bear a grudge or immense hatred, the Ai Enma will take them to a realm of

perpetual twilight where she offers them a straw doll, one of her companions, with a red string wound around its neck and describe to the client the details of their contract; should the client pull the string the tied around the doll's neck, she will ferry the target of the revenge straightaway to Hell. However, once the client's life has ended, he or she will too go Hell; a black crest-shaped mark appears on the client's chest to serve as a permanent reminder of this and their decision to send someone to Hell.

Death Note Facts

Controversy in China
posted on 2005-02-06 01:15 EST

Popular Manga Banned in Some Schools

Imitating events in the manga series Death Note, Chinese school students in the city of Shenyang have take to writing death notes. The students buy special stationary and follow instructions such as "Write the cause of death and the person's name backwards and the person will die in 40 seconds."

A middle school student told the Shenyang Night Report, "Many of my friends have Death Note. When they are tired of studying, they have fun by writing down the names of teachers they don't like."

Some Shenyang schools have banned the manga and related stationary, the newspaper called Death Note, "Poison, creating wicked hearts." Others however, including one major Chinese newspaper, feel that the ban is an over-reaction and is inappropriate. Some have suggested that overreactions such as these are what stifle creativity in China.

Mello/ Death note in Wonderland

L Change The World

Yay, a spin-off of the Death Note movies starring the loveable and strange detective L (Kenichi Matsuyama)! Too bad the film's really not that good, though to be honest, diehard fans of Matsuyama's popular take on L will likely not care that much. L: Change the World is neither groundbreaking nor noteworthy, and exists mainly as fan service for the people who can't get enough of the slouching, sweets-loving bishonen detective who outwitted the dastardly Light Yagami (Tatsuya Fujiwara) in those Death Note movies. Rabid fans of the blockbuster manga adaptations will probably find this to be a suitable reward for their unabated fandom. However, the uninitiated may need to take a crash course in Death Note lore. It's either that, or wonder why everyone is so excited to see a movie about a modern rock refugee with bad posture.

One final case finds L when a series of connected events converge on his doorstep. L reestablishes contact with K, a member of Wammy's House, the prodigy-raising thinktank that gave birth to L, as well as numerous other letter-named geniuses (no word if James Bond's Q is a member of the ranks). Also, former colleague F dies after discovering a terrible virus in Thailand, but sends L an odd messenger: a young boy who's immune to the virus, and just so happens to be a whiz with numbers. Finally, 12 year-old Maki (Mayuko Fukuda) shows up on L's doorstep bearing another strain of the same virus. Her father Nikaido (Shingo Tsurumi) developed the virus, but some nefarious baddies want control of it. Their goal: to change the world. The bad guys want to provoke an outbreak of this new virus - which is described as a fun combination of the flu and Ebola - so that they can eliminate the majority of the human race, ridding the planet of useless people while also preserving the environment. Oh, they may also be able to make a few bucks on the side.

Changing the world? Ridding the planet of useless people? Those sound suspiciously like things that Light Yagami would do, though this connection between the original Death Note concept and the plot of L: Change the World is never truly explored. Unlike the previous films, L is an original screenplay (a novel adaptation was released roughly one month before the film premiere), carving its own fictional niche while making a few welcome, and satisfying nods to Death Note mythology. L is still incredibly quirky and smart, but without the original manga story as backup, the film suffers. L's charisma in the other films came not only from his quirky looks and behavior, but also from his ability to outthink and outwit everyone around him. In L: Change the World, L is presented as always ahead of the game, and there's never truly a moment where his intelligence impresses or entertains the audience. That's both a plus and a minus. The plus is it eliminates some of the heady and wordy exposition that weighed down the Death Note films. The negative is that it makes L: Change the World much less fun or surprising.

Not to worry, in place of L whipping his foes with his ultra-powerful brain, we get...character development! The original Death Note manga, anime, and movies were too concerned with Byzantine mindgames and convoluted plotting to deal with actual character development, so the change here is a novel one. This isn't the same "always solving crimes" L that we saw in the other films; this L has time to reflect upon his life and even his feelings, and the minor tweaks to the character are good ones. The filmmakers give L some emotional connection through his interaction with both Maki and the nameless little boy, and Kenichi Matsuyama makes the character's abundant strangeness watchable and endearing. For L fanboys (or fangirls, as is more likely) L: Change the World is enjoyable stuff, especially when you consider that the character will likely not make any more appearances except in prequels - which could still happen. Given the still-continuing fan love for all things Death Note, further adventures of L may already be in the works, pending the success or failure of this film.

Death Note 2 ~The Last Name~

When we last left Light Yagami (Tatsuya Fujiwara), he had just perpetrated the most elaborate and successful demonstration of his Death Note, the supernatural notebook that kills anyone whose name is written inside it. As a result of his clever scheming, Light was invited to join the investigation team chasing the mass murderer known as Kira - who just so happens to be Light, anonymously using the Death Note to kill scores of criminals daily. However, oddball super detective and avid sugar-lover L (Kenichi Matsuyama) truly suspects that Light is Kira, and he's not shy about letting Light know. During their initial and subsequent meetings, L basically rubs Light's face in his obvious suspicion.
However, instead of avoiding potential capture, Light embraces the chance to work side-by-side with his sweets-loving rival. Now that L and Light/Kira are working together, the stage is set for an epic battle between two insanely smart guys who like to talk a lot. It's a showdown of acrobatic mental geniuses, who use keen reasoning and elaborate mindgames to outwit their wily opponent. Who will be the last name written in the Death Note? Will it be the megalomaniacal Light, or the wacky but honorable L? And will Death Note fans pissed at the fate of the manga characters find this new cinema version to be satisfying?
The answer to that last question: yes and no. One portion of the Death Note fanbase won't be that happy because the fate of one character doesn't stray very far from his destiny as detailed in the manga. However, another portion of the fanbase should be tickled pink because the other character is served much better than his manga counterpart was. What does that mean to those not versed in Death Note lore? Probably nothing, though there's still some enjoyment along the way.
That is, if you can stay focused. Death Note is a very cerebral manga, and derives its thrills from mindgames, obtuse mental jousting, and layers of doublespeak that play much better on paper than on celluloid. Director Shusuke Kaneko doesn't do much to make the already wordy events of the manga more enthralling on film, and inserts plenty of wooden exposition to keep the audience tuned in - if they haven't fallen asleep. The first Death Note movie ended with the promise of L and Light's coming conflict, but because the sequel has to compress many volumes of manga into 141 minutes, much of the back-and-forth rivalry between L and Light gets excised in favor of talk, talk, and more talk. The uninitiated could get bored, and simply wonder why the two male leads wear so much eyeliner.
The unitiated might also be bothered by Erika Toda, who plays teenybopper popstar Misa Amane. Misa is egregiously perky and pouty, and the adorable Toda can be as annoying as she is charming. Misa enters the picture as the possessor of a second Death Note. Since she's a huge fan of Kira, she also uses the Death Note to punish criminals, and even becomes known as the "Second Kira". However, Misa is sloppy and not very smart - she's easily pinched by L, who figures that if Misa is the Second Kira, then her new boyfriend Light is the first one. It's smart thinking, but Light has his own elaborate plan built upon the Byzantine rules of the Death Note itself.
Light's plan involves handing the Death Note to a third party, Kiyomi Takada (Nana Katase), and getting her to do his dirty work for him. Kiyomi was also in the manga, but her film counterpart is actually an amalgamation of three separate characters. Still, her function is more or less the same as the manga. Basically, she's a pawn used by Light to prove his supreme smarts, and it works just as entertainingly on film as it did in the manga. Seeing Light's elaborate plans getting played out onscreen can be quite exciting, even though it basically invites whole pages of exposition to explain it all.
Not helping matters is the acting, which ranges from effective (Kenichi Matsuyama makes a lovable L) to labored (Tatsuya Fujiwara strains a bit as Light) to wooden or overdone (most of the supporting actors). Again, director Kaneko's handling is far from imaginative. Nearly everything that happens in Death Note: The Last Name also occurred in the manga (though perhaps in a less truncated form), and Kaneko translates it to the screen in a slavish and entirely too-routine manner. The film could have used more creativity or cinematic verve, but the most creative thing that the filmmakers probably did was persuade the Red Hot Chili Peppers to lend two of their songs to the soundtrack.
The film largely succeeds based on its built-in popularity, and those who read the manga will easily get the most out of the screen adaptation. Those who didn't read the manga will likely be more distracted by the film's obvious shortcomings (direction, pacing, acting), but there's still a major positive: Death Note's hook - a supernatural notebook that allows its bearer to play God - works in any medium, and makes for intriguing, and sometimes enthralling moral discussion. Is Light correct in using the Death Note to reshape the world in his own image? Is his brand of justice worth the necessary sacrifice of innocent lives? Or is he just a megalomaniacal murderer who's so in love with himself that he thinks the end justifies the means?
