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.

Description
Based on Masahito Soda's popular manga, Dance, Subaru! is the perfect starring vehicle for singer-actress Kuroki Meisa (Crows Zero) who brings her dancing background to the silver screen. The picture of model beauty and grace, Kuroki plays a tough-cookie ballerina who must overcome many obstacles to fulfill her dancing dreams. Directed by Hong Kong filmmaker Lee Chi Ngai (Sleepless Town, Magic Kitchen), this inspirational dancing film wraps an affecting story of family, friendship, romance, and perseverance in soaring scenes of classical ballet and modern dance. The film co-stars heartthrob Hiraoka Yuta (Swing Girls), plus Korean actress Go Ara (Genghis Khan: To the Ends of the Earth and Sea) and Sano Miku (Sunadokei) as friends and rival dancers. Korean boy band Dong Bang Shin Ki, who sing the film's theme song, also make a special cameo appearance in Dance, Subaru!

Walking her own road from a young age, headstrong dancing prodigy Subaru (Kuroki Meisa) is determined to become a professional ballerina, a dream she carries both for herself and her late twin brother. Despite a tough childhood, Subaru grows as a dancer under the guidance of retired ballerina and cabaret club owner Isuzu (veteran actress Momoi Kaori). Shining through with her vibrant but undisciplined talent, she wins a coveted spot in a ballet production, and enters an international competition to vie for entry into the top ballet companies. But in a competitive world where friends are also foes, a very tough road lies ahead for Subaru.

Loosely Translated and Paraphrased From Japanese:
Lina - A Good Way to Study (6/15)
Everyone, this is Aniki.
First, I want to teach you all a good way to study
On "Tenjochiki*Chiki," when doing my Korean (language) course, I thought of these:
① With daily listening, even listening once a day is helpful!
- Look at the way they talk with their mouth, it is a whole different experience
(She means, listen to the language being spoken and also how it is being spoken. Study the way people who speak Korean form words, as in mouth shapes, etc.)
② Practice with anyone (even Japanese people)!
- Teaching people () is a way to study also
(Practicing with non-fluent people or people who know nothing of the language is beneficial also. You can learn something new teaching things to other people)
③ Study as much as possible!
- For example, the drama "Pride" is coming out, maybe you want to watch it
(Use every chance available. Also, I don't know about the drama "Pride," and she wrote "maybe" in English so...)

Everyone, work together and support these rules!
Study hard!

Everyone, this is Sunday.
As the weather becomes warmer
It's time to wash all the old winter clothes
It's very tiring
But feel UP (I think she means feel better. She wrote "UP" in English)
The rainy season is coming


Lina - Are you working hard? (6/01)
Everyone, are you working hard?
This is Lina.
It is now the beginning of June.
It has been raining non-stop.

Loosely Translated and Paraphrased from Japanese:
The members are currently in South Korea and have been spending more time over there lately. We hope they are having a good time.

But, the girls came back for one day to record their radio show "Tenjochiki ☆ CHIKI!." Also, Dana has once again dyed her hair brown.

As soon as the recording was done, the girls immediately went back to South Korea!
If you live in the Kansai area, please tune in!

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!
