Hi everyone
This is CEO Lee Chang Eon of Liveworks Company
I’d like to send my regards to all the fans as well as welcome everyone to the reopening of Shin Hyesung’s official website
I’ll share briefly the plans for Shin Hyesung in the 2nd half of the year with all the fans who have been waiting for a long time.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
ALBUM
1. First Japanese album “Find voice in song SHIN HYE SUNG” - Korean version
The album, which was released in Japan on 28th Feb, will be released in Korea via Loen Entertainment.
With the Korean fans in mind, Vink’s “Gone Today” will be included with Korean lyrics as a bonus track
During the recording of this song for the Japanese album, Hyesung had emphasized that he must re-record this particular song in Korean to sing together with the fans during the concert
The album cover will also be re-designed
2. ‘Best of’ album “THE CYCLE 2005-2009 SHIN HYE SUNG”
At the same time of the release of the Korean version of the Japanese album, a “best of” album will also be released.
The songs included in the album will be slightly different from the one released in Japan
The album photos are also brand new photos taken recently
Taking into consideration the Korean fans who have been waiting for so long, there will be 2 new songs added as well
A upbeat and modern track suitable for the hot summer, penned by Hwang Sung Jae who also wrote Shinhwa’s “Hero”
“If You Love…”", a ballad from Park Chang Hyun, who produced “EX-MIND”, “Same Thought” and “The First Day When We Met” and is currently studying in the US,
These two songs are specially included for the fans.
The song by Hwang Sung Jae is a genre that Hyesung is trying for the first time. During recording Hyesung often talks about concerts, looks like now he likes concerts even more than I do
Hyesung and myself, we’re looking forward to the concert in Korea, packed with all the Korean fans.
3. Official 4th album
The 4th album is slated to be released in October this year
Actually this is what the fans want to know about most
I’m sorry to say, that besides the approximate date of release, there isn’t much I can tell everyone
The rough concept has been decided, the production of the songs has also started, and we’ll go into recording very soon
You can be sure that this album will be filled with Hyesung’s passion for music more than any other album
Please look forward to it.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
CONCERT
1. The Korea concert will start after the release of the 4th album in October
We need to emphasize, that to Hyesung, the focus of his music activities is on the concerts.
During the production of the songs we often talk about the concert, and there are already ideas for the concert.
Because Hyesung has his concerts, my role is to turn Hyesung’s ideas into reality.
After the release of the album, there will be more concerts than ever.
The concept of the concert includes more interaction with the fans than ever
To a singer, rather than to have a big-scale concert, he should work harder at holding theatre concerts that focus on the music performances
This year Hyesung too wants to take on the challenge of theatre concerts that focus on the performance of his music.
And he wants to hold a Christmas concert this year too. If that’s not possible a year-end concert will do too.
We’d like to bring a performance of Hyesung’s songs and Christmas carols that will warm people’s hearts, a performance where everyone can feel the happiness of the Christmas atmosphere.
After the concert in Korea, there will be a concert tour in Asia in the first half of 2011, starting with Japan. Hyesung adds on a new region every year for his Asia tour, and there will be two more venues added to the existing lineup for the Asia tour next year.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
ASIA PROMOTION FAN MEETING
1. Like what we have announced to everyone before, the “2010 SHIN HYESUNG LIVE MUSIC SHOW IN ASIA” promotional fanmeeting will kick off in Shanghai on 18 July, moving on to Taiwan on 25 July and Bangkok on 7 August. Although it’s a fanmeeting, the focus will remain on his music, and we’ve prepared events that fans in Asia can participate in.
2. In August after the Asia fanmeeting, there will be a fan event for Korean and Japanese fans held in Korea. It’ll most likely be an event where, more than at any time, fans can see Hyesung in his daily life.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
DVD
1. The concert DVD for ’2009 SHIN HYESUNG {KEEP LEAVES” TOUR IN SEOUL} held in Seoul in August last year will be released on 24 July in Korea and 25 July in Taiwan.
2. The production of the DVD for {“Find voice in song” LIVE IN TOKYO} held in June last year, has also been completed. The concert footage will be shown on Japan’s DATV in autumn, and released on DVD after that.
We have just shared the plans for Shin Hyesung for the 2nd half of the year.
Although all broadcast appearances will start officially in autumn with the release of the 4th album, before that he will also be participating in OST recordings, promotional activities and joint performances with other artistes
Including the plans mentioned above, we will inform the fans of Shin Hyesung’s official activities via the official website within the shortest time possible.
Shin Hyesung’s official website, which has reopened today, will become a platform for us to interact closely with fans
For any feedback and enquiries regarding Shin Hyesung and Shin Hyesung’s activities

Half of the year has already passed, and summer has started
Growing together with Shin Hyesung, Liveworks Company has already been around for 1 year. There are many things that happened during this one year, and we have thought about a lot things in this one year
