Who Are TSZX?

Lina - Dana - Stephanie - Sunday

The Grace (Korean: 천상지희 더 그레이스; Chinese: 天上智喜 The Grace) is a South Korean a capella girl group formed by SM Entertainment in 2005. It consists of four members that specialize in singing, dancing, and acting.


The Grace was known as TSZX before the promotion of their 3rd Korean single (My Everything) around the end of 2006, at which the group changed their name to The Grace to signal the change of the group's style to a more “graceful” one. TSZX is the romanization of the Mandarin Chinese pronunciation, Tiān Shàng Zhì Xǐ. In Japan, the group is still officially known as Tenjōchiki, which is also abbreviated (though less frequently) as TJCK.

Loosely Translated and Paraphrased from Japanese:

With the Akasaka BLITZ live yesterday, "Tenjochiki 1ST LIVE TOUR ~ Dear..." is over! The tour took place in Osaka, Nagoya, Fukuoka and Tokyo. After traveling to so many places, we thank everyone who came out.

I was worried about the Akasaka BLITZ performance, since the stage was bigger than the other venues, but the fans filled the entire floor seats! The members also got a little teary near the end of the concert.

Because of her injury, Stephanie was not able to participate in the tour, but Lina, Dana and Sunday filled in her spot. Many fans complimented the live as being "great." We also want to say, that although the members are sorry you only see three of them, they are very appreciative and happy for the praise they have received.

This live, which traveled through different parts of Japan, also showed the growth and development of Tenjochiki. Please continue to support Tenjochiki!

Lastly, some news on future Tenjochiki activities!
A regular Tenjochiki program...

Expect more info in future news!

By the way, the concert in Fukuoka had a lot more fans than expected. Thank you very much! Things like, a sea of pink penlight was a good way to show support!

After three lives, we have one more at Akasaka BLITZ! The concerts have been going well so far, so please support Tenjochiki for the final night!

Finally!

"Tenjochiki 1st LIVE TOUR 2009 ~ Dear" has begun!

There have been performances in Osaka and Nagoya so far, both lives were done in a very good atmosphere! If you came out, thank you!

By the way, we guess you guys already know...
In Osaka for the encore, the words "Wait a minute!" with no action...

TVXQ!

It's nice when artists from the same company come out and support each other. It was a nice surprise!

Next is the Fukuoka performance, and I'm not worried at all. Fukuoka is my hometown and I expect us to be taken care of well. Above all, we get to eat good ramen!

Or at least I will for one day...

Loosely Translated and Paraphrased from Japanese:
Have been on the rise since recording "Here," the theme song for both the drama and movie version of "Homeless Middle School Student."

From SM Entertainment, the same management company as TVXQ.

Beginning today at Osaka's BIGCAT,

"Tenjochiki 1st LIVE TOUR 2009 ~ Dear..." Start!

From the dressing room just before the show:



They don't look nervous at all.

Unfortunately, Stephanie is still not well enough to participate.

The powerful singing and dancing makes Tenjochiki a powerful live to attend!



And of course we had to add a little surprise for the first customers of the tour:

1st Live Tour ~Dear...~: Osaka BIG CAT 3/12 Tidbits

Posted by estelgrace On Thursday, March 12, 2009 0 comments

BIG CAT in Osaka

From all accounts, Tenjochiki's first concert of their ~1st Live Tour "Dear..."~ that spans from March 12 to 24 has ended successfully. Below are a few tidbits from the Osaka BIG CAT concert on March 12 from various sources. Fancams are still to be retrieved.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-


According to the above info from Baidu, Tohoshinki (TVXQ/DBSK) appeared for 5 minutes before the ladies' last encore song.

Below are fan accounts of the concert.
本日、大阪BIG CATで天上智喜のライブ行ってきました。メンバーの 一人が腰痛で三人だけでしたが、がんばってました。ライブもそこそこ盛り上がってきて、そしてアンコールの一曲が終わってここで、応援に駆けつけてくれま したと、なんとあの 東方神起のメンバーが!!!!!「キャー」と言う歓声で鼓膜が破れるかと思いました。女性たちが一斉にステージのほうへドドドと押し 合いに。すごいですね。人気。天上智喜のSUNDAYも、東方神起が登場したときが一番盛り上がったので、少しむっとしてました。まさかアメ村でこんなス ターを。。まじかで見れてよかったです。

Translation (Pending editing from CDM):
There was no song from Stephanie. The DBSK boys arrived after the first encore song. Sunday was the most excited at the concert.

Fan Account: THSK on Tenjochiki Concert
CSJH's Live Tour started on Osaka today.
After they sang 「ちょっと待った」, for encore
suddenly we heard THSK's voices.

Yunho and Jaejoong had been in Osaka since yesterday
so I thought they won't be coming because of the promotion
I'm really surprised

The standing fans were pushing around
and I got confused but I really wanted to see.

THSK finally spoke and gave TJCK compliments
and saying to please support TJCK more in
the future and cheer THSK Fighting before leaving.

Sunday, Lina, Dana, and their Special Guests

Further info:
"Aside from THSK attending, I'm reading that they preformed a new song before the encore called "ちょとまった〜" which roughly translates to Wait a Little."

The next stop of the tour is at Nagoya ell.FITSALL on March 14.

As some of you have already noticed on the HP in the info and news section, Stephanie will not be participating in the live tour. For all those looking forward to seeing Stephanie, we are really sorry..

But! Lina, Dana and Sunday have been working very hard on a good stage. Although not having Stephanie will bring an absence to the performance, the three other members will preserve and hope that you give them your encouragement.

"Tenjochiki 1st LIVE TOUR 2009 ~ Dear..." will soon begin. Lina, Dana and Sunday hope to give you all a good performance. And we hope the fans will support and enjoy the performances also.

Well, next week is the beginning of 'Tenjochiki 1st LIVE TOUR 2009 ~ Dear..." Although it has not begun yet, we are all very nervous.

Of course I am getting nervous, although no members of the production have ran into any emergencies...

The members have been doing constant rehearsals and the best part is, more tour information and goods should be up soon on the HP, so don't forget to check it!

Also I was very quiet around the rumor surrounding the new CD on the HP. Also, experiencing this song live would be a great introduction to it!
