Yes, we are aware that "sasaeng" is the Korean word for stalking.
And yes, we know it's illegal. We're just using it for comedic purposes, so don't read into it too much.
Basically, our job is to try to locate the TVXQ! members whenever they're missing or out of Korea for the International Fans.
Keep in mind that not everything we post are facts -- they could just be rumours -- until proven, that is.
We hope you enjoy following our blog and what it provides. :) TVXQ, fighting!Cassiopeia, fighting!

I used 2 twitter accounts, 4 different CBoxes, 1 chatango, 1 blogroll, 4 different forums, 2 news sites, 2 Chinese translators, Google, MSN and Facebook to connect with people who had fragments of information that I had to piece together.
Being a sasaeng (or at least trying to be one) is hardwork. I went through a phase where I stopped sleeping so when events happened online I would be there. Time differences suck.
Side effects: I hate computers. Losing 5kgs in 11 days.
What I learnt about the actual process for future reference:
Junsu enjoys fans speaking Korean ^^
Jaejoong looks like a God in real life
Yoohwan has no fashion sense
Yoochun can get off a 10 hour flight and still be "dandy"
Changmin is the original ninja.
Jaejoong just copies Changmin XD
Instead of watching a forum or a news site - watch the chatbox. When fans return home they rush to the cbox first to tell others what happened. An obvious bonus is you get to do a mini interview with that fan and ask questions i.e. Junsu bought a lollipop in Sydney. Fan accounts take a couple of hours or days.
The staff they have are bi or mulit-lingual. There's no point in defining if they are from Avex or SMbased on language choice.
Be suspicious of every rumor. Listen to what people say but watch what they actually do.
Don't listen to staff about departure dates. They will lie through their teeth so fans don't go to the airport. (IMO I wouldn't bother talking to staff at all unless I'm trying to pass something on)
In my opinion, don't bother talking to admins or authors from news sites (i.e. DBSKnights). What they say has a large influence on fans so they avoid saying anything unless it's official.
The existence of Zisi's. I noticed them from day one but I dismissed it as a one off thing. I didn't know withholding information was so organized and deliberate. They don't just keep information, they delay and tell the opposites of the truth - i.e. JCS are in Shangri-La vs Hilton.
The reason why Jaejoong was said to be angry in Sydney was because of the constant mass of fans loitering around his hotel. Junsu's manager was said to of have asked fans to turn away when he was eating. Having a fan watch you eat will make you self-conscious. Cassiopeians should understand places where they sleep, eat and drink are no go zones.
