I feel excited every time I received an email from Kelly 
We were lucky tonight! Manda, Steph and I decided to try and walk to the Kyocera Dome since it’s near where we’re staying, just to get a feel of how tough it’d be if we have to walk back should the station be too crowded. And turns out the boys were having rehearsals!
We caught the middle of Been So Long, a practice ment and yes, Rainy Blue with a special surprise ;D There was also an unknown JaeSu duet (we couldn’t recognize the song) but the best surprise then was a JYJ version of Greatest Love of All! We are totally going to be blown away tomorrow, I guarantee it! I’m not going to spoil the surprise by revealing all the songs we heard but I think you guys might want to know that there might be a video ment using Kimi ga Ireba as the background music.
But the best, the utter highlight of this impromptu concert was what might (I repeat, might, it is not certain) be a an actual JYJ single. It’s a powerful ballad, and it doesn’t sound like anything we can recognize but it has their trademark all over it. It’s going to be a heart-wrencher baby. I really, really hope that this will be their new single.
I do have audio recordings but to not spoil it for everyone, I’ll hold it back until at least the first day of the concert is over (Kelly asked me “is it okay baby?” Guess what I replied to her)
But I have to say here, I was struck by the effort they put in for a rehearsal. There’s a Japanese philosophy in art called wabi-sabi where beauty is found in something impermanent and imperfect; we heard moments when Junsu’s voice broke, and Yoochun sounded like he was a bit sick, but all their imperfections (yes, even Jaejoong missed a couple of parts), it was…beautiful. The effort they put in to make themselves better is just worth looking up to and emulating. The ending of Colours was actually messed up but Jaechun did it again and again with the live band until they got the timing down right. And Junsu helped lighten the atmosphere by being his usual dorky self!
It’s going to be an awesome day tomorrow baby!
