Magazine Scans: Jasper Liu 劉以豪 SPOP 華流 July Magazine Photos

These photos are some of the most beautiful pictures of Jasper I've ever seen in my life. Jasper has such a beautiful, pleasant face and such a tall, striking figure. I also like the light, ghostly images of him taken in the night. Poor Jasper had to take these photos after a long day of shooting for When I See You Again...But his fans appreciate it!

Fan Meet announced for Jasper's 劉以豪 July SPOP 華流 Signing

Ah, the fan meet I'd been dreading to hear about. Why? Because I doubt I can make it to this one due to work commitments even though I really, really, really want to meet Jasper T^T (Well, meet him again. I have met him once before...So I really can't complain.) I really wanted to get something signed by him, especially an SPOP magazine (Or a Morning Call CD. Or a polaroid photo...). But I'll pass on the details and if you can make it...well, get me a signed copy of the magazine, ok? :D

If you're keen and able to get yourself to a Jasper fan meet, SPOP is hosting their signing event next weekend on Saturday 11th of July, from 1:00pm. (They start giving out numbers earlier, so you'll want to be there from 6:00am or so!) The fan meet will be held at Sanli Television Station (Old Zhong Road, Taipei Neihu Section, No. 159). Most taxi drivers know their way around...you give them that address and they immediately know you're heading to the TV station. You'll need a copy of the magazine for signing, but you can pick it up from any 7-Eleven...Amd they'll most likely be selling the magazines in line.

I wish I could go :( But I'll post translations of any videos that SETTV or SPOP post up. If you go, don't forget to update us on your adventure!

Edit: They cancelled the SPOP signing for today as a precaution to the typhoon warnings for Typhoon Chan-Hom. May be re-scheduled for tomorrow.

Jasper Liu 劉以豪 to release Kyoto Travel Photo Book, Dogs and Cats Person 犬貓人

Jasper is really becoming a big star this year. If you thought he was starting to dominate with TV dramas, movies, magazines and music, now you can add another form of media onto the list because he is set to release his own photobook with pictures taken of him travelling in Kyoto.

These photos are amazingly dreamy, in the same indie style and aesthetics as those taken for Jasper's dreampop band, Morning Call. That's because the photographer is Jasper's good friend and Morning Call's photographer, who goes by the name Manbo Key. The man has an impeccable indie style, appealing to the soft, nostalgic, dreams of youth and forgotten memories. You can find his work instagram. I've also started a post with all Manbo Key's past works featuring Jasper here.

If you'd like a sneak peek of the photobook, here's the video. The song playing in the background is 'Behind Youth' by Morning Call (I've translated the lyrics of the song here.)


And if you're looking for the book itself, it'll be on sale on the 24th of July, with both a special edition copy and a regular copy. The special edition copy comes with some cute bonus things like mini polaroids and what look to be mini write-your-own caption stickers. A sneak peak of the photobook can be found on the publisher's site, though I've also posted the pictures here:

If you're interested in buying it, you can purchase it here at Books Taiwan :) They've released a special site for the photobook here. You can download special Jasper wallpapers too. Here are the pictures from the site:
