The three members of TVXQ filed a lawsuit in mid-2009 against their South Korean record label, SM Entertainment, arguing that the 13-year length and structure of their exclusive contracts as well as the terms of profit distribution were unilaterally disadvantageous towards the artists and should be invalidated. The Seoul Central District Court in October, 2009 ruled in their favor on this matter.
Following the hiatus of TVXQ, the three member group was announced under the name of 'JUNSU/JEJUNG/YUCHUN' in April 2010 by Rhythm Zone. The trio kicked off their activities with a Japan Tour ‘THANKSGIVING LIVE IN DOME’ in May and June and appearances at the annual A-nation lives in Japan during the summer. The trio also released a personal travel documentary of all three members titled ‘3HREE VOICES’ and a mini- album, 'The…'.
In September 2010, Avex Entertainment announced the suspension all of JYJ's Japanese activities. Avex claims this stems from issues the label had with the president of the group's Korean management, C-JeS Entertainment.[4] JYJ stated it was a conflict over new terms demanded by Avex in contract renegotiation.
The group released their English-language global debut album, The Beginning, under the name 'JYJ' in October 2010. A worldwide album showcase tour was announced, touring Southeast Asia cities as well as the United States. A 2-day special concert ‘JYJ Worldwide Concert in Seoul’ was held at the Jamsil Olympic Stadium from November 27-28 after the World Showcase. They were further met with positive feedback following the release of The Beginning. JYJ was featured on the cover of Billboard magazine and ranked by its readers as the 5th top album of 2010.
JYJ followed up in January 2011 with another EP in the format of a "Music Essay" entitled "Their Rooms "Our Story".
In the spring of 2011, JYJ launched their first Worldwide Tour as a group with concerts held in Thailand, Taiwan, China, Canada, and the United States. In addition, JYJ held 2 rounds of a special charity concert in Toyko to benefit those affected by the Tōhoku Earthquake and two special encore concert performances in South Korea.
After a break for the members' individual activities, JYJ released their second group album and first Korean language album entitled "In Heaven" in September 2011.
JYJ extended their first Worldwide Tour in October & November of 2011 by adding European stops in Barcelona and Berlin and holding two rounds of a larger Japanese concert at Hitachinaka.
I Love You

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Girl I'm burning up in flames yet I'm too stressed to feel the pain
If only you believe me when I say I'm gonna change
But you know I ain't in this game, for the money and the fame
I just wanna see us secured so we can chill and start a family
Provide for the bills yet you don't seem to understand me
Want me to, give up what my plans be
So could I say I'm sorry, sure
But would it do any good, no
'Cause she's out of my life
And you never wanna see me again
What can I do to fix this?
'Cause babe, I need you
(need you) more than the night sky needs the moon
Hey, I gotta face the fact she's not here
So I'm beggin you to hear my cry
God, I need that girl
If you must, take instead my life
I love you, I love you
I love you means this can't be
I love you, I love you
I love you's the only beginning
I love you, I love you
I love you, this ain't the end
I love you, I love you
I love you's the only beginning
All you wanted was I love you
I was too insecure to
But if it brings you back
I will love you, girl
Love you.
I am your man
And now...
I'm beggin' you to hear my cry
God, I will be her man (to cherish her)
But this time I..
(Will cherish your gift, this time I'll do it right)
I love you, I love you
I love you means this can't be
I love you, I love you
I love you's the only beginning
I love you, I love you
I love you, this ain't the end
I love you, I love you
I love you's the only beginning
I just need a chance for me to show you my heart
Cause the only other way to tell you is through my prayers to God
And you're the brightest by far, amongst the brightest of stars
Even though we argue, know that I'm the type that fights for the cause
Non-stop calls, buggin' I don't mean to
I'm sick of all these sequels and just wanna see you
You're my other half, we're each other's equal
So I ain't gon' stop until this problem's solved
Because I need to, I need you
This is truly my fault
Cause when you left that day
It was tears from our fight
I should've made you stay
(I love you, I love you
I love you means this can't be
I love you, I love you
I love you's the only beginning
I love you, I love you
I love you, this ain't the end
I love you, I love you
I love you's the only beginning
I love you, I love you
I love you means this can't be
I love you, I love you
I love you's the only beginning
I love you, I love you
I love you, this ain't the end
I love you, I love you
I love you's the only beginning)
This is truly my fault
Cause when you left that day
It was tears from our fight
I should've made you stay
God I'm beggin you now,
Hear my prayer
I really need this girl,
Bring her back today.
