Ok, the event proper… Brother in law understood Thai, so he translated for me some of the time, other comments in CAPS are what I got from other people’s tweets/fan accounts.
Lights dimmed, cue fan screaming and one lone male walked out to the stage. Cue more screaming but of course it was just the MC. MC for the fan meeting is DJ Bo Thanakorn Chinakul (DJ Beau), previously from boyband Ozone, very smiley face, about 175cm and Jae was just a bit taller than him.. taking into account his boots, I’ld say Jae’s real height is about 177-179cm. The fan sitting next to me said that this is a good MC., and he was indeed very friendly and pleasant.. no awkward bear, elephant nonsense here..
Jae with MC Beau
Jaejoong was wearing a black leather trenchcoat over a thin white singlet that was black at the bottom.. very nice, and everytime he shifted his shoulders (I suppose it was quite warm), the fangirls screamed… he perspired quite a bit and the singlet gradually grew more transparent.
When looking at Jaejoong on the big screen during this time, I felt that he is definitely too thin and his skin looked very dehydrated. As the night rolled on, I realized it was the camera used - when they were doing the cooking game show, the image on the screen showed much better skin.. from then on I just tried to look at actual jae and not screen jae.
Question board with all the post it notes were rolled and the MC immediately started the Q&A section.
The cute little singapore poster with elepant design is still visible - behind MC Beau
JAEJOONG : I CAN’T READ THAI, WHAT IF I PICK A QUESTION I DON’T WANT TO ANSWER?
1ST QUESTION: PLEASE DO 3 ANIMALS DANCE - Jaejoong showed his pinky and promised to learn it next time. This question was quite long as fans were whining hehehe. MC Beau said, ok I’ll do it instead, and did a cute shake.
2ND QUESTION : Jaejoong read this one out loud in English “Would you marry me?”. JAE- I CANNOT ANSWER BECAUSE I DON’T KNOW WHAT YOU LOOK LIKE (LOOKS ARE IMPORTANT TOO)
3RD QUESTION: DO YOU HAVE FURBY (DOLL?). JAE - I DON’T KNOW WHAT IS FURBY. (dunno what was the point of this question. Apparently furby used to be very popular and you can teach them how to say words). (Later read fan accounts that said Furby dolls are currently all the rage in Thailand).
4TH QUESTION: CAN YOU KISS ME? - JAEJOONG : I CAN’T MARRY YOU BUT KISS IS OK. He walked to the camera, and look straight into it so we suddenly saw his full face on the screens on either side of the wall.. he tried a couple of times before kissing the camera - you can see his ENTIRE face, his nose, sexy philtrum, lips slightly opened to show his teeth. After kissing he walked quickly behind the message boards, fanning himself. Instead of slipping behind the message board from where he was, he CROSSED the 2 message boards to the other side, flapping his hands and DJ Beau went after him and chased him back to the front again.
wow Jae is very confident about his milky skin
took so long to complete the kiss then flailing all over the message board... too cute
Second segment - XO Game - How well do you know Jaejoong
1st question - The date that Jaejoong returned to twitter was 3rd December (Wrong)
2nd question - Was Jaejoong wearing white underwear yesterday? (A resounding NO - all the fans knew that Jaejoong likes black, grey, and leopard print underwear. It was so funny to see Jaejoong being shy about the fan reaction, and of course he teased the fan by hooking his jeans as though he wanted to check his underwear colour.)
At this time, only fans who were wearing watches on their right wrists were allowed to continue the game, as too many people got the questions right.
3rd question - What’s his favourite Thai Food - Padthai
4th question - Where in Thailand does Jaejoong want to visit most? (Options were Chaingmai, Wat Pho, Erawan, Siam Square etc, we all thought he would be interested in Wat Pho but he said he wanted to visit Siam Square as he has stayed in hotels near Siam Square before, but was in the car and never got the chance to go inside. Then DJ Beau mentioned something about Paragon, so I suppose to be impartial Jaejoong said he wanted to visit Paragon as well)
5th question - Who do you miss most - Junsu, YooChun, Jiji or his parents - JAEJOONG - JIJI, BECAUSE I JUST HAD A HOLIDAY WITH MY PARENTS, AND I MET YOOCHUN AND JUNSU TWICE THIS WEEK, BUT I HAVENT MET JIJI FOR A FEW MONTHS (yeah jaejoong, because your furniture is more important than Jiji)
8 fans survived and went on stage - Jaejoong put headbands with red hands on their heads. Fan 1-3 walked off without handshakes, fan 4-7 initiated handshakes, and the last fan shyly hugged Jaejoong. He was a bit surprised by the sudden hug but quite sporting about it.
Next Game - Paper, Scissors, Rock game - all the fans stood up for this. I lost at the 3rd turn, Jaejoong was a little lazy, mainly showing Rock. Once there were less fans who survived the game, Jaejoong pointed out to a group of 3 girls in Zone B1 and reenacted how they purposely showed their hands slower, ie showed the winning hand in response to Jaejoong’s hand. (according to other fan accounts, they were also showing heart sign instead of playing properly) He likes to tease his fans! His eyes were so teasing when he showed how they acted. .. however I think the girls were some of the remaining winner.
The 5 fans who survived the Rock, Paper & Scissors game went up on stage to arm wrestle Jaejoong.
JAEJOONG: I MIGHT LOSE BUT I WILL PLAY SERIOUSLY. I THOUGHT THAT I SHOULD GIVE IN TO MY FANS BUT THEY ARE REALLY STRONG.
He used only 2 fingers, but he let the fans grasp his fingers with both their hands, he pretended to lose of course. The second or third fan said, “I WILL LOSE ONCE I LOOK INTO HIS EYES”. Jaejoong gazed into her eyes and laughed. The fan was really cute. The last fan was an ahjumma fan, Jaejoong stood up quickly to greet her, and then started the arm wrestling. She pretended to faint, and Jaejoong pretended to faint too, then she bent over to kiss Jaejoong’s wrist! Jaejoong laughed so hard but the fans were all screaming. The fans all got heart shaped cushions, and all of them hugged Jaejoong.
Gives up... fans are too ingenious when it comes to getting skinship from Jae
Next game - charades - 3 fans were chosen using a number randomizer.
Words were given out in Thai language and seemed to be very hard. I couldn’t see if Jaejong managed to guess correctly, but there were words like Sukothai (I think is Thailand’s old capital city), and muay thai. One of the fans was from Malaysia and she managed to act out Suvarnabhumi - the airport. Since she and another girl got the same points, they did rock paper scissors to determind the winner, alas, she lost. She got a poster (I think) with the other girl, and the winner got a necklace that Jaejoong wore for her.
Very focused during charades.. he really trie
Break time where they played Mine MV, the fanscreams were so loud for this too! Jaejoong reappeared in a black tshirt and vest. - Cooking time! Jaejoong put on the flowery apron himself.. awww he looks so cute in the apron… the MC didn’t help him, guess they are not as close as Boom is to the boys.
He will be making rabokki and 2 fans were selected using the randomizer to go on the stage. Everyone laughed when he opened the lid of the wok as the stock was nearly gone.
JAEJOONG: THE TASTE MAY NOT BE 100% MINE BECAUSE MOST OF THE THINGS WERE PREAPRED BY STAFF MEMBERS. I REALLY WANTED TO SHOW YOU THE PROCESS. I’M ENJOYING THIS, PLEASE FEEL FREE TO ASK ME ANYTHING.
He put in all the vegetable ingredients and fish cakes, followed by the dubokki rice cakes, then hard boiled eggs and sliced sausages. MC BEAU: “AH, JAEJOONG IS PUTTING IN JAEJOONG’S EGGS AND JAEJOONG’S SAUSAGES”. JAEJOONG: “WE CANNOT SAY THIS, WE HAVE MINORS HERE!!” (The 2 fans were 16 years old, so cute and shy).
JAEJOONG: MC, YOU’RE REALLY HANDSOME, WHERE ARE YOU FROM, I HEARD YOU ARE FAMOUS. To the cameraman: PLEASE VIDEO ME TOO… such a tease.. he’s good at managing the time while waiting for the stock to boil.
Peeking at the cameraman
He tasted the gravy a few times , fangirls screamed everytime the spoon touched his lips, then screamed again when he whispered to a female staff member to get him something (they were quite close).
The missing ingredient is Ottogi corn syrup , and he made sure the logo was very visible (Jaejoong is good at supporting Yoochun’s endorsements!). He put a few drops, tasted the stock, and kept adding and adding.. it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that he put nearly half a bottle into the wok.. Phinea2009 thinks that his tastebuds must have conked out with the flu jabs that he took. Finally he added the pre-cooked ramen and the dish was done. Jaejoong suddenly said “Sawaddee Pee Mai Krub” which is Happy New Year in Thai, and all the fans laughed.
Supporting Yoochun's Ottogi endorsement
Tasting time! The fans told him to blow on the food as its too hot, which he did, then he kept feeding them in quick succession.. the fans said the food was too sweet though.. you should have seen his face when they said that! He also ate some, and fed some to MC Beau.
Next section - Paparazzi! A selection of photos
1st pic - Jaejoong in sunglasses on the flight from Korea to Thailand (the seat was a mustard yellow, which airline is that?)
2nd pic - Jaejoong at the airport
3rd pic - Jaejoong and Jin Yi Han playing games in an arcade when they went to Busan
4th pic - Jaejoong in a bathtub with his eyes closed (he said he was asleep when the photo was taken by another actor but it was so posed!). This was during the filming of Dr Jin, and from the window you can see that it’s a high altitude location with a good view - must have been when they filmed on location in that remote place. Mustn’t have been very remote if there is a nice hotel like that.
5th pic - this elicited the most screams - Jaejoong topless in bed with the blanket around his chest (that was a FINEEEEE pic I tell you….. same series as the one he tweeted which showed his skinny shoulder and wing tattoo?)
JAEJOONG - THERE ARE MORE SEXY PHOTOS WHICH HE MAY SHOW VIA TWITTER NEXT TIME.
They ended the fan meet portion when the staff wheeled out an arrangement of lollipops in a giant heart shape - 5,000 pieces as a Valentine’s present for everyone. Jaejoong is really nice to Thai fans, I think he gave roses during his fanmeet last year?
Fanboy Jaejoong skit - so hilarious - narrated by Yoochun (thank goodness for that, he redeemed himself in my eyes a little bit with this narration), it was in Korean with Thai subtitles and all the fans were in stitches. We knew the storyline of the skit so we could laugh along, basically it’s Jaejoong spazzing about Kim Jaejoong, .. trying to get concert tickets but his laptop crashed, then laptop was fixed but concert tickets ran out! Saying, why is Kim Jaejoong so handsome, so talented, why is he thinking of Kim Jaejoong 24-7. Moping around, he tried all avenues and finally got tickets, then he started thinking about what clothes to wear for the concerts, a couple of photos of the clothes were shown… a pair of sexy suspenders/thongs had the entire room screaming..
