Fashion designer and pop princess, Chae Yeon was last seen on the 19th at Seoul’s Seoul Plaza hotel translating for one of J-pop’s best, X-JAPAN. She spoke with leader, Yoshiki, on his future endeavours in Korea.
So it seems, after all these years in the K-pop industry, Chae Yeon hasn’t forgotten her roots.
She first made it big as a Jinny Lee in defunct J-pop group Ultra Cats (ウルトラキャッツ), with three other ahjussis. To check out a fresh-faced Chae Yeon in her J-pop garb, click on!

LOL!!! that’s all I can say.
too much…. to make fun of….OVERLOAD
Waait… she’s Japanese?! Woah. All I knew is that she hit on Andy in front of his on-screen reality show wife, Solbi. (X-Japan!!)
^ No, she’s not Japanese. She just debuted in Japan first.
that’s funny– she actually looks younger now o_o
good job chae yeon for coming back to korea!
Wow, you learn something new everyday lol. It still amazes me how they came up with such random band names in the past, it still does.
I can say the same about her stage name, Jinny Lee lol.
WOW! I bet she wishes she never went through that stage in her life. That was……….pretty bad. o_o
i really don’t know much about chae yeon but i’m glad she went back to korea.
YOSHIKI IS LOVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
that ultracats song was surprisingly catchy =P
hmm the song was actually okay, i’ve heard worse korean songs.. sorry..
i guess now she’s got a new job as translator! good for you chipmunk!
Man … I don’t think I can consider X-Japan ‘Jpop’ … more like Visual Kei and Metal. That’s like saying Gackt is a balladeer.
CY’s been doing Japanese/Korean translating gigs for awhile now … that’s not new at all.
Oh I’m so Jealous! Yoshiki was my first love! eventhough I’ve moved to the youngins nowadays, he’s still special at heart. ^^
Good to know that Chae Yeon can speak Japanese. Didn’t know that she debuted in Jpop first though.
X Japan….Hide…T______T
Omg…Hide..>_< *R.I.P*
i haven’t heard X Japan in a while, and it makes me sad to even think about that now..*runs off to listen to pink spider*
dude. i like this song. makes me want to run around in a parking lot surrounded by 3 stuffy looking older men.
where can i download this?
