jonghyun: i really liked choi chang min’s “jjang” when i was young. i would sing along with the lyrics and try to memorize them, but when i was about twenty years old, i couldn’t remember the lyrics anymore. i really like the song a lot when i was in elementary school though.

jonghyun: when i’m tired i tend to crave for sweet things or snacks. i don’t really eat my meals well but i eat a lot of chocolate, and people ask: “why are you eating so much chocolate?” … maybe because my glucose levels dropped? anyway, if you go for a buffet, it’s better that you eat a lot. it’s not that most people get to go to buffets often anyway.

- listener: i'm a person who wants a lot of things. i'm dreaming of becoming a singer, but because of my family there was nothing i could do but give up. during that time i heard the news that a neighborhood oppa debuted. for the second time i felt the desire to get a job in public entertainment even though my mind was prepared to enter college, since i had effectively given up on that dream. however, now i again have a different dream, and whatever people say to me i alone want to support myself.
- jonghyun: i think that one day you will definitely come to your dream. perhaps someone may look at you and say "hey! why are you living that grudgingly?" (cr: bluejong2 trans: professorjjong (kor-->jpn-->eng)

a listener sent in a message mentioning how they had to “part” from a fellow classmate.
jonghyun: there was a time when i became choked up because i had to part with someone. it wasn’t with a schoolmate, but a member of the band i was in (during high school). he had to move so he had to transfer schools, and i was sad that i wouldn’t be able to spend time with him any longer. to eat quickly and then rush to practice after that …, but that friend is still well now.

(laughs) (source: thatcoolcatmeow) [note: jonghyun mentioned during a broadcast of blue night last fall that the reason why he didn’t eat at school was because his family was on welfare and he received free lunch because of it, and basically that he felt embarrassed by that fact / “hated” it so he refused to eat at all, which he said came from a place of “immaturity”. an article about this can be read below.

jonghyun: i think things easily …, well, not really throw them away but i lose them easily. but, if i think something is filled with memories, i can never throw it away. it could be an object that someone else cannot understand (why i’d keep it) too. for example: candles that have all been used up. i have a lot of candles, but my mom threw the used ones away when we moved house.
guest: did you two fight (over that)?
jonghyun: my mom and i had a big … (pause) match on who could speak well. (laughs) it was my reason (on not throwing them away) versues hers, but i lost.
guest: what was your reason?
jonghyun: it’s not that they held any special memories, i just found myself thankful to them. i go back home (after long days) and it feels good laying down with my candles on, but i couldn’t say that to my mom. i couldn’t say that i couldn’t throw my candles because i felt thankful to them. (laughs) so, i lost.
(…)
jonghyun: i think not being able to throw away something is related to memories. i have a bad memory so i can’t throw things away because i might forget the memory (attached to it) if i do. for example: i have a lot of accessories. there’s this belt that’s severely broken but i can’t throw it away because i used it once on stage. i can’t throw it away because i want to remember that stage. (…) i also got a parcel once, but i kept the box for some reason. i have this odd hobby of collecting such things. i sometimes collect boxes according to their sixes. actually, that box was an important one to me, but my mom ended up throwing it away and we fought about it.

Blue Night - 160207
blue night radio ♡ 160207
jonghyun: i rarely oversleep but, when i do …, you know that shock that you get when you wake up and realize that you’ve slept in? i really hate that feeling; that feeling of breaking out into a cold sweat and having to get ready in a haste. i really hate it. (source: thatcoolcatmeow)
blue night radio ♡ 160207
jonghyun: i think …, doesn’t one become an adult when you become happy by making the people that you treasure happy as well? being an adult to me is being happy because you’re making happy and protecting the people that you’re wanting to protect. (source: cosmicsticks)
blue night radio ♡ 160207
jonghyun: when i’m having a hard time falling asleep …, if i place a warm pack or something on my tummy or neck, i fall asleep well. i don’t know why i fall asleep so well when my tummy is warm. (laughs) (source: cosmicsticks)
blue night radio ♡ 160207
jonghyun: i wear glasses with really thick lenses so my eyes become really small when i wear them. everyone gets taken aback by it. my make up staff once said: “what happened? i’m a little started, please take them off.” they said that they didn’t know how to apply my make up on because my eyes looked smaller than usual.

jonghyun: you should ask those in a long distance relationship, why me?! (source: cosmicsticks)

jonghyun: when i go overseas and have pre recorded blue night episodes, i surely tune into them. there’s times when i listen to them during the day instead of at night. (source: cosmicsticks)

Blue Night - 160205
blue night radio ♡ 160205
jonghyun: there are things you forget when you’re busy …, things that you neglect unintentionally. the moment you realize this, that you’re playing no attention to it, you feel disappointed at yourself. (source: thatcoolcatmeow)

listener: i quarreled with my boyfriend.

jonghyun: i really love baek yerin’s album, frank. there aren’t many songs that i have downloaded onto my phone because i usually just use a streaming device, but there are three albums that i have kept on it. thornapple’s abnormal climate, her album and justin bieber’s what do you mean? by the way, thornapple, please release a new album. (source: thatcoolcatmeow)

(on baek yerin) jonghyun: i can say for sure that out of sings born in the nineties, her voice is one of my favorites. i personally really like her voice. (source: thatcoolcatmeow)
blue night radio ♡ 160205
jonghyun: i can’t remember my middle school graduation ceremony that well. i’ve tried to remember at least something by looking at a picture i took with my band members on that day, but … nothing. (source: thatcoolcatmeow)
blue night radio ♡ 160205
jonghyun: i’m working actively as a singer, but i’m also working hard as a composer and a lyricist too. so, please look forward. (source: thatcoolcatmeow)
blue night radio ♡ 160205
(after playing taeyeon’s “rain”.) jonghyun: there’s something about taeyeon’s voice that makes you want to listen to it more. i really liked her voice when we were trainees. there was this presentation that we had to do where we had to show our individual talents, and they would give us graded scores. she was a vocalist that i could never win against. i was always second place to her amongst the trainees. i would be like: “i going to make myself be first place someday!” and then taeyeon made her debut. after she left, i was a dishonorable first place. (laughs) i was like: “no! i have to win against taeyeon noona!” (source: thatcoolcatmeow)
blue night radio ♡ 160205
listener: do you have any tips on memorizing japanese words?
jonghyun: i’m not (that) good at japanese. i’m only good at conversing in it. i’m not the person who studied …, well, i did study, but i didn’t study a lot to learn it. i engaged in a lot of conversation with japanese people and also talked in japanese to one of my korean friends. he was good at it so talking to him was helpful. i think conversation really helps. these days, searching up a word on your phone is very easy. so, i’ve tried to make sentences using the words that i look up. rather than asking someone about a word that i don’t know, it’s been better to just look up the meaning myself. after doing that, other people have told me that improvements have been made. (ie: in how he speaks the language.) i think, this way, you won’t only understand (the language) much better, but you’ll tend to remember the new words well. honestly, i’m not that good at japanese so giving advice to other people …, i’m a little embarrassed. (source: thatcoolcatmeow)

jonghyun: i remember how i used to listen to the radio when i was young. my mp3 player had a radio function so, after practice, i listened to the radio through it. (source: thatcoolcatmeow)
blue night radio ♡ 160204
listener: i started taking dance classes. jjong-d, does your body move differently to how you image it to be like mine is now?
jonghyun: it’s still different. (laughs) i just practice a lot. i can’t dance very well. (source: thatcoolcatmeow)

Blue Night - 160204
blue night radio ♡ 160204
jonghyun: i think the best thing to do in your early twenties is have a romantic relationship. i don’t know why. (pause) no, not romantic relation, but being in love. it doesn’t matter if it’s one sided. to be able to love someone wholly. it doesn’t have to be a person; it can be an animal too, even your dog. i came back to korea after a long while and my dog welcomed me so passionately. i felt that she really loves me. i think it’s good to immerse yourself fully into loving something or someone. (source: thatcoolcatmeow)blue night radio ♡ 160204
the topic of discussion was how often you should text your boyfriend / girlfriend.
jonghyun: to be honest, i’m not the type of person who calls or texts a lot. depending on the person, it’s not easy to understand this, but i don’t call every morning, afternoon and evening. (source: thatcoolcatmeow)
blue night radio ♡ 160204
jonghyun: i did about twenty shows for my solo concert. my mother came about fifteen times. whenever i’d see a certain song and see my mother i kept breaking into tears. so, i told them to not set the lighting to the area (where she usually sat) because i would cry so much. (source: thatcoolcatmeow)
blue night radio ♡ 160204
jonghyun: i don’t really like the phrase “don’t worry”. there are many things that improve through worrying. (source: thatcoolcatmeow)
blue night radio ♡ 160204
jonghyun: time is a funny thing. when you wish that time would go by slowly …, times that are sweet and happy fly by very quickly. when you wish a painful time would go past quickly, time will go by as slow as a turtle. there’s a distance between the time of reality and the time within your heart. the further the distance is, the more distressed you feel. the past two years of time that i’ve been on this radio flew by very quickly. it’s been a happy and joyful time for me. i hope you guys are feeling a similar speed of time as me.

jonghyun: the speech pattern: “bo go ship peot da yo” or something something haet da yo~. i heard this a few years ago from a friend. that friend speaks korean really well, but has a different nationality than korean and i wondered why they were saying it like that until i realized that it’s just a way of combining formal and informal speech. i think it’s cute.

blue night radio ♡ 160203
listener: i am a shy person. if i don’t go to university orientation camp, people will become friends with each other without me. i should go, right?
jonghyun: friends you are close with and find comfortable right now were all awkward too at the very beginning. whatever it is, the significance of “first time” seems important. it’s only natural to feel nervous when meeting new people. it’s impossible to feel close with people you see for the first time so think of this as making an opportunity to be close with those people. if you plainly engage in conversation with them, i think you will naturally become friends with them.

jonghyun: “well, so far so good.” why do i suddenly like how this phrase sounds? maybe it’s something about it being calm? (source: thatcoolcatmeow)
blue night radio ♡ 160203
listener: i have someone that i like. i tried to stop my feelings when he said he got a girlfriend. he recently broke up (with her). i know he sees me only as a friend, but i still like him. maybe i’m a fool.
jonghyun: what’s wrong with being a fool~? there’s nothing worse than to hear: “i have someone (that) i like” from someone that i like. i hope you don’t feel yourself as a fool. to stop liking someone just because that person started liking someone else …, (if that’s the case) can you really say that you really, truly liked that person? (source: thatcoolcatmeow)
blue night radio ♡ 160203
jonghyun: finding out that you like someone …, the moment you realize that you like a person …, i think this moment is really important. there’s a difference between: “ah~, i must be liking this person” and “i think i’m genuinely attracted to this person as a human / person”. i think the latter one leads to being attracted for a romantic relationship. when i like someone …, usually it’s a love at first sight sort of thing, even though i haven’t experienced it that many times. i think it’s interesting to carry that feeling. it feels like i’m being tickled and that i’m (floating) up in the air. (source: thatcoolcatmeow)
blue night radio ♡ 160203
jonghyun: when i was a trainee, i would open my eyes, go to the practice room (at the company) and return back home afer practice. i would sing continuously and practice vocalization. my fellow trainee friends would say to me: “jonghyun-ah, let’s eat. we’ll order something for you too”, but i really hated stopping practice in the middle and going out to eat. so, i would always order fish cakes with rice. it’s okay to eat that even when it gets cold.

listener: personally, i don’t like spring. i should do something before spring begins … (source: thatcoolcatmeow)
blue night radio ♡ 160203
listener: is it okay to not have a dream and feel lost?
jonghyun: i don’t think, personally, there is such a thing as a certain age that you can or cannot feel like (in finding one’s dream). you can be lost at any time. i believe you can return back to being stable at any time, too. i felt like i was lost for a long time as well, and i still think that i am. the important thing even while you’re feeling lost though is your determination, and gaining confidence about your goal. (source: thatcoolcatmeow)

a listener sent in a message mentioning how it’s great to listen to music while walking outside.
jonghyun: i don’t really go outside so i sometimes listen to music out on a veranda or somewhere i can see an outside view from. i think there are songs that are better to be listened to on cold days. (source: thatcoolcatmeow)
blue night radio ♡ 160203
jonghyun: sometimes i can’t even recognize my own handwriting. reading back to my old notebooks that i’ve written (in) …, i think: “wow, it’s so hard to read”, and since it’s so hard to read i can’t fully understand the meaning (of what’s in the notebooks) either. (…) in times when i have to write, it’s difficult not only for me but for others too. so, i concentrate hard when i have to write by hand and even though i’m concentrating it’s still not very pretty.

jonghyun: i was thinking of what song to introduce on here after coming back to korea. there is a song that was just released today, as it’s past midnight. i’ve been waiting for it. i thought it would be great to listen together and, fortunately, mbc has it. it’s taeyeon-ssi’s “rain”. she received a lot of love with her song, “i”. she pulled off the modern rock genre so well so i’m curious what kind of atmosphere this new song will have. they say the song has a jazz style.
