Bae Yong Joon’s message:
Annyeong haseyo, this is Bae Yong Joon.

“Winter Love Song” is a precious work which enabled myself to build closer relationship with Japanese family.
“Winter Love Song” is recreated in animation after 6 years,
I have decided to join this with delighted feeling.

Of course, acting only with my voice would be difficult,
but I find this work very interesting, as I would be able to send my greetings to my family again through this animation ”Winter Love Song.”

I would like to enjoy this work and do my best to bring new emotions,
different excitement from the drama to everyone’s heart.

Everyone, I ask you for your support.

Hello Everyone! This is Joanne Oh.
2008-03-17 16:57:14

Hello Everyone! This is Joanne Oh.

I hope that you enjoy the warmth of spring after a long winter.
What are your plans in the new season of the year?
I have been finishing up the last part of creating Joanne Studio, and I have also been creating a beautiful and new Joon Bear.

Everyone, I am proud to introduce a new version of Joon Bear, TWSSG Joon Bear.
I have been putting all of my mind and energy into TWSSG Bear because of all the love that you have given to Winter Sonata and April Snow Joon Bears.
Even though creating TWSSG Joon Bear delayed the opening of Joanne Studio a little bit, I am so happy that we will all be able to enjoy TWSSG Joon Bear together sometime soon.

I made TWSSG Joon Bear by getting inspirations from images of TWSSG’s Damduk.
I tried to express his soft yet strong charismatic images on this bear.
This bear represents a generosity of Damduk who would forgive even a man who is an enemy and a bravery of Damduk who would risk his life and fight for the woman that he loves.
I hope that you will enjoy and share all of the inspirations and feelings that I received from watching TWSSG.

Completing Joanne Studio is right on schedule.
I wish that we will all have a chance to see each other in Jeju oncoming May.
Joanne Studio is not only an exhibition of my bears, but it is also a place where we can all meet and share our feelings.

I wish you a best of luck on a brand new season.
Thank you and have a lovely day!

Joanne Oh

As I look back, half of my thirties was spend here with everyone.
It seems so long, but again it seem so quick.

I never thought a day like this will come, but people always meet and part, and there will be reunion.

There were so many happenings, it will take a long time just to bring it back to memory.
I will never forget this site which we created, and all the things we felt together.

Against my will, I did cause so many inconveniences, I was not able to satisfy everyone but with your support I am able to pass the baton.

I wish fine health and happiness to everyone visiting official site.
Please continue to support Bae Yong Joon and official site.

I really want to say thank you.

Announcement : Change of Operator for Bae Yong Joon’s Official Site

http://www.yongjoon.jp/

Greetings, dear family,

As of 11 March 2008, operator for Bae Yong Joon’s official site will change from Interactive Media Mix Inc. (IMX) to BOF International.
Please read the greeting messages from both companies, and let us explain the procedures from now on.


≪from IMX to family≫
In autumn of 2003, IMX had launched “Bae Yong Joon’s Japan official site” in desire to answer to the request that “we want to have a place where we can talk about Bae Yong Joon”.

It is already 4 years since then, there were so many incidents that we cannot fully express in words.

There were days when we had monitored the board till midnight. Unexpected comments surprised us. We were moved to tears from warm kindness. We spent unforgettable time together filled with laughter, tears and excitement.

It was not a short period of time, we send our appreciation to every family who sometimes kindly supported us and sometimes rebuked us. As though we had so many shortcomings, we were able to operate this site because we had received so much power and love from family.

Regarding this changeover of operators, we had done our best so that it would be something smooth for everyone.
Upon friendly negotiation of both parties, this transfer is done without charge, everyone had done their best not to cause you any inconvenience.

IMX will not forget our feelings of appreciation and will do our best from now on to cooperate with BOF International.
Thank you for everything.
And we ask you for your continuing support for Bae Yong Joon’s official site.

IMX


≪from BOF international to family≫

Greetings, this is BOF international.

As we have made our announcement the other day, BOF have set up BOF international aiming to be more close to everyone in Japan. We will be controlling management of Bae Yong Joon in Japan.

As the result, we are here to announce that we will be operating Bae Yong Joon’s Japanese official home page.

We will continue to create a good atmosphere at this official site. We will do our best to answer to your requests.
Korean official site and Japanese official site will always cooperate and we will tender information at the same timing.

Please contact us with your comments and requests at anytime regarding operation of official home page.
We ask you for your continuing interest and support.

Cold weather still continues, please be careful not to catch cold.
BOF international

≪Procedures from now on≫
Due to system maintenance, freeboard at official site will be closed from 10 March, pm3 to 11 March, am9.
You will not be able to read or write at freeboard during this period.

Registered members card will continue to be available.
However, according to the Private Information Protection Law, your private information will not be transferred from former operator IMX to new operator BOF international.
It will be necessary for you to re-register your personal information.

As soon as operation with BOF international starts, we will be announcing necessary procedures, we ask you to take necessary steps.

New members who have applied after January 2008 and made their payments upon registration (money voluntarily remitted as operation fee), all of the paid amount will be handed over to BOF international.
Please note that IMX’s account will cease as of 10 March.

For new members who have registered before 10 March, membership card and other related papers will be sent from operator Interactive Media Mix Inc. (IMX). We ask you to take necessary procedure for registration as same as other members upon operation starts with BOF international.

We are sorry to cause you so much trouble, but we ask you for your understanding.
Regards,
