Lee Joon, “BEAST is more popular than MBLAQ, and my fans are sick of me”

On the 22nd, MBLAQ’s Lee Joon appeared on MBCGolden FisheryRadio Star’.

When asked about the comparison between MBLAQ and BEAST, Lee Joon said, “BEAST is doing a lot better than MBLAQ. Even Infinite is doing better than us.” MC Kim Gura replied, “You are being pushed back (by BEAST).”

Lee Joon continued, “In the beginning, we were ahead in the game. When MBLAQ would be on a radio show, BEAST would look at us from the outside the studio because they didn’t have anything scheduled. Especially, Yoon Doo Joon would look at us with envy. But now, the tables have turned. BEAST is even more popular than us.”

He was then asked, “Is it true that your fans are tired/sick of you?” He replied, “I guess I’m the type people get fed up with.”

He explained, “When I was a rookie, they (the fans) liked it when I didn’t say much and had no expression on my face. But, as soon as I opened my mouth, my fans began to disappear one by one.”

    Poor Lee Joon, his reply regarding him losing fans one by one sounds really sad.
    It really sucks that MBLAQ isn’t getting enough recognition no matter how much effort they put into their songs and choreography.

    I do recognize that my B2ST are more popular now♥ but I sometimes don’t understand why does MBLAQ has really few fans… Their music is spectacular! when I asked about this, some persons told me that B2ST personalities were the best in kpop and thats what makes them the best, but I think that MBLAQ & B2ST personalities are similar..they’re both kind to their fans and they’re always so cheerful and they’re humble♥So i still don’t get why is MBLAQ so underrated ;n; … 

    “When I was a rookie, they (the fans) liked it when I didn’t say much and had no expression on my face. But, as soon as I opened my mouth, my fans began to disappear one by one.”Awww Lee Joon TT—TT I love your dorky side better♥ what you can’t see is that when you are loosing fans, you’re gaining new fans(?), the normal Lee Joon is the best♥

       Frankly, I was utterly disappointed in It’s War and I thought the whole album was terrible, but I still don’t understand how those boys are so unpopular in Korea. I mean, their personnalities are great, they had some great songs (I Don’t Know is my fav from them), and they’ve been promoting a lot, they’re also very close from their fans. And now… they even lose to Teen Top. Infinite is rising so much MBLAQ will soon lose track of them… I don’t know what can help MBLAQ if not a top class producer which will bring them a top song like Grasshoper for Sunny Hill.

      I hope those guys will hanging there but if their next album flops as bad as the previous ones… I don’t what will happen to them.

    em, Doojoon said B2ST is envy with Mblaq because mblaq get more attention from Rain.

    B2ST is more popular and sucess because they are talented + hard workers. we all can see how B2ST improved.

    for Mblaq, i love you too, even im B2UTY and now a+ , i think mblaq improved too :)

    Lol I think Mblaq is better than Infinite though :P but maybe that’s just my opinion. I never really noticed Mblaq befor just recently. Lee Joon and Mir is definitely two of the funniest guys in Mblaq, I like what he has to say :P

    yep… they started together, but Beast now are incredibly more popular… All their singles are hits, while MBLAQ’s singles are not very popular…
    but don’t worry MBLAQ! I’ve got 3 of your albums, while I don’t have any of Beast’s!

    I love it when Joon speaks. He’s funny and I love his voice. The fans that left him weren’t real fans :P They were probs just there to look at him. If they were his real fans then they would stick with him and never leave him.

    I like MBLAQ better than beast. MBLAQ is funnier and closer to each other than beast. But that’s only how i feel. MBLAQ saranghae and fighting 4eva <3

    I became a A+ fan because Joon. He is my #1 idol. I dont care if he is babo or a genuis, heck I like Kim Hyun Joon too and he is 4D. I like what he has to say, even though its weird, but its innocent and none of the bull crap that is out there.
