Korean superstar Bae Yong-joon has filed a W100 million lawsuit against a travel agency that sold a tour package for Japanese tourists whose itinerary includes Bae's favorite coffee shop, hair salon and home (US$1=W1,153).

In the suit filed with the Seoul Central District Court, the 37-year-old actor said the travel agency infringed his privacy and right of publicity by using his picture to advertise the tours and demanded W50 million each time it commits the violation.

Bae said the agency posted his name and photo on its website without his permission, and, by disclosing the location of his home, restricted his private sphere. When contacted, the agency promised to remove the program from its sales list but failed to do so.

DA TOUR Clarification

[DATOUR] Regarding your inquiries related to Animation WS dubbing tour

Regarding your inquiries related to Animation “Winter Sonata” dubbing experience monitor tour

Hello everyone, this is DA TOUR.

We would like to thank you for many inquiries and opinions related to Animation “Winter Sonata” dubbing experience monitor tour which took place at end on November.

First of all, we would like to apologize for making everyone get confused with people’s speculations and rumors on the tour.

The actual facts are as follows, Bae Yong Joon’s scheduled dubbing had been postponed and his schedule matched with the monitor tour’s guests visiting date. So, Bae Yong Joon and guests were to meet at the studio.

Bae Yong Joon learned that everyone were coming all the way from Japan, with his pure honesty, he wished to say his greetings to the family who always support him, and took pictures together with his own will.

Therefore, this BYJ’s encounter with tour guests are by accident and not intentional.

This tour is not a tour to meet Bae Yong Joon, and main priority is for the guests to experience actual dubbing and to feel the world of Animation WS. And also DATV will be making a program to introduce the tour. This policy will be same for the Animation WS dubbing experience tour in the future.We ask you to understand before participating the tour.

We are well aware that everyone of the family love Bae Yong Joon, and our company will put together various projects to meet your requirements. We ask you for your understanding and support.

Also, we have repeatedly requested you on official site, there are still many chasing tours which are giving difficulties to Bae Yong Joon’s private life, and many are mistaken that they are official tour. We ask family not to misunderstand those tours with our tours. Please do not be in danger or commercially used by them.

Again, we ask you to fully understand the purpose of the project, and do not misinterpret or confuse them.

Thanks to Tomato for the English Trans... *^__^*

その中で、皆様の憶測と噂、流言などにより家族の皆様を困惑をさせてしまいました点がございますことをまずはお詫び申しあげます。

事実関係から申し上げますと、アフレコの予定が延期となっていたペ・ヨンジュンのスケジュールが、偶然モニターツアーのお客様がいらっしゃる日に重なり、スタジオ入りしたペ・ヨンジュンとお客様が居合わせることとなりました。

ペ・ヨンジュンは、はるばる日本からの皆様が同じスタジオにいらっしゃることを知り、本人としましても「いつも応援をしてくださっている家族の方々にご挨拶をさせていただきたい」という純粋な気持ちから挨拶をし、本人の希望により写真撮影を行いました。

従いまして、今回のペ・ヨンジュンとツアーの皆様との遭遇は、偶然であり意図的ではございません。

当 該ツアーにつきましては、ペ・ヨンジュンに会えるというツアーではなく、あくまでも参加者の方々に実際にアフレコ体験をしていただき、アニメ「冬のソナ タ」の世界を満喫していただくこと、また、DATVではそのツアーの模様をお届けする番組制作に重点を置いております。この方針は今後のアニメ「冬のソナ タ」アフレコ体験ツアーでも同様ですので、ご理解の上ご参加いただきますようお願いいたします。

BYJ - A Professional Business Person

Nov. 30, 2009

This is a repost article from: Asahi Newspaper (Japan) - 11/28'09
by Ms. Yoo Je Soon (柳 在順) - a Korean journalist
Translated and posted in BYJ Quilt/freeboard by cloud nine


Different eyes to look at Yon-sama

Bae Yong Joon, who has captured Japanese women’s hearts at a single stroke
with his drama “Winter Sonata”, is still active extensively.
“Winter Sonata” has now been made into an animation
and his essay “A travel following the beauty of Korea”
was published in September in both Korea and Japan.
As he contributed to the wide introduction of Korea to Japan,
there are many Koreans who think of him as a private ambassador.

On the other hand, not a few Koreans have strange feelings
about the popularity of “Yon-sama” in Japan.
In Korea, even if people love some entertainer
they hardly follow the stars to such pl*aces as hotels and airports
that have nothing to do the performance.

A few years ago, when Bae Yong Joon was enthusiastically received
at a Japanese airport,
the fact itself became big news in Korea.

It is also strange for Koreans that BYJ’s popularity hasn’t gone down in years,
because Koreans get excited about things quickly and loose interests quickly too.
Quite a number of Japanese, once they have become the fans,
will be loyal fans whole life long,
while many Koreans’ love would last as short as three months.
In Korea so called mini-series of drama is broadcasted for three months,
so is the popularity of actors.

Koreans have different views of Bae Yong Joon from Japanese.
They appreciate his sincerity that he gives much thought and make every effort,
his character as a perfectionist, his out-and-out self control.
His image is more like a business person than an actor.

He is totally involved in the casting, direction, production
and even copy right issues of his work.
I myself have been to his press conference a few times,
and had a clear impression that rather than an actor
he is “a noble looking business person with good education”.
My colleague shares the same idea.

Some journalists even say that
he is “an actor who appears more authentic business person
than actual business men.”


In other words Yon-sama is one of a kind among the Korean actors.
He might be called “a professional business person”.
