Korean trio JYJ will hold a fan meeting next month, according to the group's promoter Prain Inc. on Thursday.

Prain announced in a press release that the boys will meet with several thousands of fans at the Jamsil Indoor Stadium on March 12, where they will take to the stage for group and solo performances as well as talk with their fans and special guests.

"This will be the group's first present to their fans after opening up the C-Jes membership system on Valentine's Day," CEO Back Chang-ju of C-Jes Entertainment was quoted as saying. "We hope that this fan meeting will be a memorable for their fans and we will work hard to set up more events for JYJ to meet their fans."

Ticket reservations for their upcoming fan meeting, open only to members of C-Jes, will be announced on a later date.

JYJ, formed of Jaejoong, Yuchun and Junsu, made their debut in 2004 as part of popular boy band TVXQ, but despite their phenomenal success in Asia, they ceased their activities as a group after becoming involved in a legal dispute with the Korean agency SM Entertainment.

They made their comeback to the music scene in October of last year as a trio under the name JYJ and released their record in mid-October after which they held a global showcase and held their first concert as JYJ.
