According to KBS World, TVXQ / DBSK has won a Gold Award at the Japan Record Awards. Here's what KBS wrote:

Hot idol group TVXQ has won a Gold Award at the 50th Japan Record Awards. Hailed as the most prestigious music award in Japan, the Japan Record Awards selected 12 artists for Gold Award this year. TVXQ got the nod for their 23rd single in Japan, “Doushite Kimi wo Suki ni Natte Shimattan Darou? (Why Did I Fall in Love with You?)” Other artists honored include EXILE, C-ute, Kumi Koda, and w-inds...TVXQ will receive the award at the award ceremony, which will be broadcast live from Tokyo on December 30 by TBS. The five-member group will also be the first Korean idol band to be invited to the renowned NHK Red & White Songfest on December 31.

This is good news, the gold award is nice and all, but the best award for me would be a nice night with the Japanese ladies. Another sake and some more sucky prease. TVXQ will also perform their single "Don't Say Goodbye" for the first time live on December 5th's Music Bank. I've never heard the song, but a lot of people are saying that this was their favorite track for their latest album. Finally, Lee Soo Man's slave camp SM Entertainment has complied with the Korean Ministries request of revising the song lyrics, which was deemed "harmful to the youth." TVXQ should tell them to shove it up their ass and make a song called Moronic for those idiots, but unfortunately TVXQ's balls are the size of marbles.
