Son Yeon Jae explained,
“Though I haven’t been able to meet Jaejoong because JYJ is on tour, I have received much instruction through emails. I think that using my hands will be very important for this gala show. I’ve been asked to have detailed eye and facial expressions as well. I think I will be wearing black-themed outfits. I think it is more extravagant that my competition outfits. In particular, I want to wear a variety of outfits for the K3 performance.“
