『冬のソナタ』ファンの皆さまへ、DVD発売延期のお詫び。
本日予定をしておりました「韓国KBS　オリジナル・ノーカット完全版 冬のソナタ DVD-BOX」は、残念ながら当面発売を延期させて頂くことになりました。
長い間この日を楽しみに待ってくださっていたファンの皆さま、すでに予約をして頂いた皆さまには、心から深くお詫び致します。


「オリジナル・ノーカット完全版」としてお届けするからには、映像はもちろんのこと、背景に流れる音楽も、韓国でのテレビ放送時と同じままに収録したいと考えていました。 そのためには、劇中に流れる全ての音楽に関して権利者にきちんと承諾を得なければなりません。
今まで時間をかけてその作業を続けてまいりましたが、どうしても作者が分からない音楽や承諾が得られない音楽が残ってしまいました。音楽を差し替えての発売も検討しましたが、私たちはどうしても、ありのままの「冬のソナタ」を諦めることができませんでした。

いま改めて「オリジナル・ノーカット完全版」での発売をお約束することはできないのが現状ですが、私たちは、皆さまの期待を裏切らない「冬のソナタ」を1日でも早くお届けできるように、努力を続けてまいります。

[news] 30 Japanese tourists hurt during making of animated Yon-sama drama

source: Mainichi Daily News
SEOUL (Kyodo)

Thirty Japanese women were injured in an accident Friday while watching the making of an animated drama starring South Korean heartthrob Bae Yong Joon, according to the Japanese Embassy and South Korean police and firefighters.

While most of the 30 women had only light injuries, one sustained a serious injury to her face, the Japanese Embassy said. The women were in their 30s to 70s.

Three South Korean men were also hurt in the accident.

According to Yonhap News Agency, high winds during the event at an outdoor set in a resort area of Gangwon Province in northeastern South Korea caused part of the set to fall down.

The Japanese spectators were hit by broken pieces and sustained injuries to the head, arms and legs, it said. They were treated at nearby hospitals.

Yon-sama, as Bae is fondly called in Japan, is popular among Japanese women in particular for his starring role in "Winter Sonata," a popular South Korean TV drama series. He does the voiceover for his character in the animated version.

There were reportedly some 1,700 Japanese female fans of Bae watching the event, as part of a tour organized by Digital Adventure, at the time of the accident.

It is one of precious memories for Bae Yong Joon and for myself.
