[ALLKPOP] 100203 TVXQ on Ellen DeGeneres?

We reported earlier about actress, TV host and comedian Ellen DeGeneres asking people for international music suggestions via her website. Since then, the majority of viewer votes has gone to none other than TVXQ / DBSK / Tohoshinki!

Since January 21st, fans have been voicing their support as the website logged over 20,000 suggestions for TVXQ alone. That’s quite an impressive gesture of fandom and Korean media points the success to a collaborative effort of Korean netizens and other international fans.

So the question is: Will TVXQ be setting foot on American soil? That’s still unknown but appearing on a talk show with nearly 10 million in viewership could definitely open up new possibilities for the k-pop industry.

SM Entertainment has also heard about the victory and stated, “We have heard about the matter but we have yet to receive an official invitation.” They added, “Currently, TVXQ is split between Yunho-Changmin, and Junsu-Jaejoong-Micky Yoochun. It won’t be easy for all 5 members to participate.”

So what’s this mean for fans? Well, it’s not exactly a no on SM’s part but it’s not exactly a yes either. We also have to remember that Ellen has yet to send out a formal invitation, but near the beginning of the contest she did mention that they may send one out. So for now, all we can do is sit back and keep our fingers crossed.
