Because we're received a few emails and questions about this:
- The messages we are telling you to write on a separate piece of paper are the messages you wrote on the cranes. If you want to write more messages than that, or if you just want to write a few longer messages, you can include that on the separate paper. But we expect all the messages you wrote on the cranes to be put in the book.
- We ask that because none of the messages should be read from the cranes. Write the messages on the inside of the cranes, not on the wings. We don't want to ruin the color scheme and it would be hard for anybody to read it anyway. We have the book because we want all the messages in the same place. Even short, short messages like "I love you, TVXQ" or "TVXQ, Fighting!" will be put into the book with your name attached.
- We are letting everyone write a few long messages (let's say, no more than 8?) that should not be as long as an essay, but can be a few paragraphs long. Otherwise, they should be around 25-30 words.
- Just in case: If you're including translations in Korean, Japanese, Chinese, or anything else that takes a while to learn to type, please write them neatly on unlined, white paper. These messages will be scanned. Everything else will be typed. And if you do write translations, they will be on the same page (or on the next if it's too long) as the English one.
More questions? Email us or write in the tagbox! We don't bite. Really. We're nice. You can ask everyone else.

Also. Not to scare anybody, but I'm sure we've all heard about the swine flu that's going around. Although we don't think it's as dangerous as everyone thinks it is, we just wanna say....
Everybody, if you're sick, don't spend your time on the cranes. Stay in bed and rest, okay? And wash your hands frequently. (you should be doing that anyway) We don't care if you have the swine flu or if you have the regular cold, your health is more important than the cranes or even school! Okay? If you feel really sick, tell your mom/dad and stay home for a day. Or take a sick day if you're going to work.
If you're still in school, you can tell your mom/dad it's because you don't want to get your friends sick, okay? ^_~ But only if you're actually sick, of course. Don't cut school if you're not sick, TVXQ will not be happy to hear about that. Probably.
And as long as you don't sneeze or blow your nose on the papers you're sending to us, we won't get sick either, don't worry. XD
We look forward to getting your cranes! Have a good May!
