[Translation] A Japanese fan at the scene of bashing

This is a fanaccount from a Japanese fan living in Los Angeles who happened to be at the Inchon Airport in Korea when Yunho was leaving for the Michael Jackson Tribute rehearsal on March 5, 2010. The fanaccount was a couple of comments posted on a Japanese blogger's blog about 6.25 meeting. Most Japanese fans know which blog I am talking about. This fanaccount is very well known among the Korean and Japanese fans. It really gets me enraged whenever I read it, and brings tears to my eyes how those two young men have suffered for something they did not cause.

The translation is from Korean translation. I've posted Japanese text after my translation. I've also posted two youtube video clips from the airports at Inchon and L.A.

Aoi-San

Thank you for spending your valuable time for the justice, and for Yunho and Changmin.

Aoi-san's courage to go against dishonesty is much appreciated.

I'm a Yunho fan living in Los Angeles.

Previously, I was an all-fan (OT5 fan) of TVXQ, but I now only support Yunho and Changmin.

On March 5th of this year (2010) on the way back to Los Angeles via Seoul from Ho Chi Minh City where my parents live and after spending a night in Seoul, the flight from Inchon to Los Angeles happened to be the same as Yunho's.

At that time, several women were following Yunho from check-in to baggage area while shouting something and holding signs. I didn't know the words, but I knew they were cursing. Since I didn't know Korean, I asked a Korean nearby while wondering what was happening. 

The words written in Korean were "Dog of SM" and "Traitor, Go to Hell!"

The words being shouted were countless profanities.

Yunho gave a glance to those, but started to walk straight while looking ahead as if nothing had happened.

I've heard about them through rumors, but this was the first time since I was born witnessing the scene of bashing.

I felt uncomfortable just by watching it, heart beating hard and body shaking.

I wonder what Yunho was feeling at that moment...

Even now when I recall that scene, it's such a trauma I get restless.

Even a 3rd person like me felt that way, and I wonder how the person who was targeted must've felt...

Around that time, the whole world turned against Yunho and Changmin as its enemy.

A decent man in his 20’s, betrayed by the colleagues who were like family, and I wonder how much his heart was hurt and suffered pain, being bashed in such it could not be described in words…

65  From LA(2)

Now I know about 6.25, I understand that everything was conspired by the 3 and their parents.

The bashing I saw in front of me was just a tip of the iceberg.

I wonder how much suffering Yunho and Changmin had to bear because of them.

The two are not even saying a word of pity or resentment to us fans.

They really withstood it well.

Right now, I do not have any word to say to the 2, but to say "Thank you."

And I will never forget this 6.25.

I do not hate the 3 and their parents.

But I truly despise them.

We shouldn’t forget 6.25 until those people who harmed Yunho and Changmin sincerely apologize.

(added) When we arrived in Los Angeles, there were around 10 fans greeting Yunho.

Yunho politely said "Thank you" to each fans one by one.

葵さん

正義の為に、そしてユノとチャンミンの為に、貴重なお時間を費やして下さってありがとうございます。

葵さんの不正に立ち向かう勇気に感謝します。

私はロサンゼルス在住のユノペンです。

以前は東方神起のオールペンでしたが、今はユノとチャンミンのみを全力で応援しています。

あれは今年の３月５日、私が両親の住むホーチミンからソウル経由でロサンゼルスへ帰る途中、ソウルで１泊した後、仁川からロス行きの飛行機が偶然にもユノと一緒だったのです。

その時、チェックインから荷物検査所までの間、数名の女性達がずっと何かを叫びながらボードを持ってユノを追っていました。

言葉がわからなくても、罵声を叫んでいるのはわかりました。

韓国語がわからない私は、何事かと近くにいる韓国人に聞きました。

ハングルで書かれている文字は「ＳＭの犬」そして「裏切り者　地獄へ行け！」でした。

叫んでいる言葉は罵りの数々の言葉でした。

ユノは、それらに一瞥をくれたものの、何事も無かったかのようにまっすぐと前を見て歩いて行きました。

噂には聞いていたけれど、生まれて初めて目にしたバッシング光景でした。

見ているでけでも、胸がドキドキして体が震えるほど不愉快な気持ちになりました。

あの時、ユノがどんな気持ちでいたのか・・・・

今でも、当時のあの状況を思い出すと居ても立ってもいられないほどのトラウマです。

第３者の私でさえそうだったのに、当の本人はどれだけの思いだったでしょうか・・・

あの頃は、ユノもチャンミンも、世間全体を敵にまわしたような状況だったんですよね。

２０代そこそこの青年が、家族同様と思っていた仲間に裏切られ、その上云われのないバッシングを受け、心にどれだけの傷と苦痛を負ったのか・・・・・　（続く）

６２５を知った今、全てはあの３人と親達が仕組んだ事だと理解しました。

私が目の前で見たバッシングは氷山の一角です。

ユノもチャンミンも、彼等のせいで一体どれだけの苦しみを背負わされてきたのでしょうか？

私達ファンには、泣き言一つ恨み言一つ言わない２人です。

本当によく耐え抜いてくれました。

今は２人にありがとうの言葉しかありません。

そして、私はこの「６２５」を決して忘れません。

私は３人と彼等の親達を憎みはしません。

しかし心から軽蔑します。

彼等が、ユノとチャンミンをはじめ迷惑をかけた人達に心から謝罪するまでは、この「６２５」を風化させてはいけないのです。

（追記）ロサンゼルス到着後、１０人ほどのファンがユノを出迎えていました。

ユノは、ファンの一人一人に「Ｔｈａｎｋ　ｙｏｕ」と丁寧にお礼を言っていました。

[YouTube video of Yunho leaving Inchon Airport on 03-05-2010]

I wonder if there's no sound in this clip because of all the yelling and cursing. I found few other clips, but none of them have the sound. I can't even imagine what Yunho was feeling in this clip.
