[Emotional] JYJ... The Beginning

On 14th October 2010, JYJ released their first album, titled The Beginning.

The release of this album sparked another round emotional roller coaster among the fans.

As usual
Blue for HoMin
Green for JaeChunSu (JYJ)
Purple for me

1. Really now? THE BEGINNING? So what was 2003-2009?
2. You kept saying you want to reunite, but then you went ahead and formed JYJ and then you went ahead and release an album. And to drive the last nail in the coffin, you named it The Beginning.

1. We want to reunite, but we do not want to go back to SM and you two do not want to leave/
2. As much as it hurts you, it IS The Beginning for us, the 3 of us.

1. It is true that this is their first album as 3, and The Beginning really makes a meaningful name for it.
2. Once JaeChunSu have decided to continue pursuing their dream and career as singers/artist/idols, and debut as JYJ, releasing an album is an inevitable consequence.
3. Debut as JYJ, release album(s), calling the first album The Beginning doesn't mean they do not want to reunite with HoMin. I fail to see the connection. A lot of times, the human tends to get over imaginative. 
4. The Beginning can mean a lot of things, for example:
    a. The beginning of JYJ, with intention to reunite with HoMin as DBSK once situation permits
    b. The beginning of JYJ, with no intention to reunite with HoMin as DBSK once situation permits. It will be       JYJ and JYJ only.
    c. The beginning of leaving SM.
    d. The beginning of working towards becoming a different kind of idols. Idols that are not mere eye candy. Idols that are real artist and appreciated for their talent first before their looks.
    e. The beginning of a long and arduous fight for what they believe in: freedom, fairness, respect
5. Despite all the above I have written, I have to say, if I am Yunho and Changmin, I would probably burst into tears upon seeing this album. And there will be many flashbacks going through my head. Wasn't Hug our Beginning? Why is there another beginning now? Remember, HoMin are humans too, they have feelings too. If fans can get imaginative with album titles, so can they.
6. As HoMin, I would think: I thought we had one same dream, one goal. We started together, and we may have lost our ways now and got separated, but we will eventually find our way back to each other, continue our journey and reach The End together. But why, why are you coming up with a new beginning now? You are creating a starting point without the 2 of us.

In this world, not everything is either black or white. Different things happening at different time can have various different impact on different individual. Even for the same person, reading about the same topic under different environment, in different mood can have different effect. Have you ever gotten so angry about something, only to laugh about it a few hours later? Or have you ever brush off or laugh at some remark someone made, but some time later, the more you ponder upon the remark, the more disturbed or upset you get? Dreams aside, forming idol groups, releasing albums are, to put it bluntly, all about business. But the thing is, the people doing this are not emotionless machines, they are flesh and blood with emotions. And once you mix business with emotions, it is difficult to draw a line, things get complicated. One should never judge and condemn others so easily in such situations. However, that is exactly what everyone is doing now. They go deciphering that every single action or words from the boys (all 5 of them) are the result of a big conspiracy, there must be a motive behind. This.....is not healthy and definitely not helping, no matter whose side you are on.
