Ayumi Hamasaki (Kanji:
浜崎歩) has released the full length version of her long awaited "
Blossom" PV (music promotional video) one week after a short version of was unveiled in September. The PV was much anticipated because it features
Jaejoong (Hangul:
金在中) of
TVXQ/DBSK (Hangul
: 东方神起
), who's now enjoying ever higher popularity with his lovable role in 2010 spring drama《
素直になれなくて》 (Romanji:
Sunao ni Narenakute; Chinese: 无法坦言相对; Tagline: Hard to say I love you) alongside top Japanese actors
Eita (Kanji: 栄太)
and
Ueno Juri (Kanji:
上野樹里) of smash hit TV series 《交響情人夢》, i.e.
Nodame Cantabile (one of my favourite Jdrama). He even won the
Best Supporting Actor award in the
14th Nikkan Sports Drama Grand Prix.
I love watching
Jaejoong in
Sunao. He's sooo00 cute and and good-looking in the drama. I bet
Ayumi is trying to ride on his popularity to shatter
松田聖子 Matsduda Seiko's record for the most #1 singles sold on the
Oricon chart.
Matsuda currently holds the title with 24 #1 singles.
Jaejoong commented, “
Ayumi Hamasaki is a big senior in my record label, so when I received the offer to appear in her PV, I was really happy. Although I feel a lot of pressure, I’ll try to do it perfectly!”
I've watched the PV and was so envious of the model who got to act as Jaejoong's girlfriend. He's so sweet to the girl. Btw, the music video is quite emotional after Jaejoong found out he suffered from a terminal disease. The producers believe that
Jaejoong’s realistic acting will invoke tearful reactions from the fans. Not bad, I would say. Don't forget to purchase the original single
here to support
Ayumi and
Jaejoong!
Both working under the same agency
AVEX,
Ayumi and
Jaejoong are now colleagues. Despite the difference in seniority, they're known to have a close friendship. There are rumours of them meeting secretly in Korea for kimchi. Lolz. I don't mind if they're dating. He's so cute and I like
Ayumi. How old is
Jaejoong? He's born in 1986. So he's 24 this year.
Ayumi is born in 1978, so that makes her 32 years old but she sure doesn't look older than 30. More and more South Korean women date younger men, and this has always be a trend in Japan.
Anyway, I hope
Ayumi settles down with someone she loves and who loves her too. It was a pity she split up with
Tokio member
Nagase Tomoya (Kanji:
長瀬智也). I really like this couple. They've been going steady for 7 years!
See how well suited the couple looked. Sigh. What a pity~ Nagase is already dating his Utahime co-star Aibu Saki (Kanji: 相武紗季). Utahime (Kanji: 歌姫) is a well-received TBS drama, and also the drama that made me idolized Tomoya kun for quite some time. Mukodono (Kanji:ムコ殿) is another Tomoya's drama I recommend. Totally enjoyed his animated and bone-tickling acting in it.
