sorry i don't understand your exact question but if you're looking for info about the fanclub, i'll tell you about it ^^

---

The SHINee World fanclub was first opened for registration on April 21, 2009. Registration was open for two weeks, until May 5. The price for registration was 10,000won (~$10 USD). Currently, SHINee World is still in its 1st generation because they never opened a 2nd gen registration for new members.

As for SHINee's official fan color, in the first few months after SHINee debuted, SM officially called it "Pearl Aqua Green". In August 2008, it was changed to just "Pearl Aqua". The color is seen on SHINee merch and official posts/documents as a mint-like color, sometimes metallic or "pearl". SHINee's color is much closer to green, like 'mint' or 'turquoise', than blue or sky blue.

---

"Pearlescent sky blue" was a name someone made up in the beginning, and it caught on among international fans. But in Korean, it has never been called sky blue or blue of any type.

---

Also, the color of unofficial merch is sometimes a little off. Even official SM merch has very different shades, due to the limitations of the merch they're producing. Super Junior's color is bright blue, TVXQ is bright red, SNSD is bright pink, those are all typical colors and easy to find material to make goods with. But SHINee's color is more unique, so sometimes the color of a SHINee bracelet won't exactly match the color of a SHINee shirt or a SHINee notebook. The exact SHINee color can be hard to pinpoint, even for SM...haha

they do both mean please!! but "jebal" is a generic word to mean "please" (like if you're wishing for something, or trying to convince someone to do something, etc), while "juseyo" can mean "please" in some situations but technically it really means "give" or "please give".

---

so to use "juseyo" with the meaning of "(please) give", you can use it with nouns. like if you want to order a pizza, you can say "pizza juseyo" :D which is "please give me pizza".

---

or you can use "juseyo" when asking for a favor. you can use it with verbs in this way, like "meogeo juseyo" meaning "please eat" (technically the literal meaning is something like "please give me (the favor of) you eating"), and it implies that you're asking someone to do it as a favor that somehow benefits you (for example, if you're worried about the other person's health ^^) so it can mean "please do ____" with any verb :)

hmm ok. as for my own opinion about it, i think there's a lot of gray areas. it's not always "right" or "wrong", it just depends on some situations. for example, many people love multiple groups, watch shows about multiple groups, have many biases, and enjoy lots of kpop music. that's perfectly fine ^^ in fact, that can make kpop more fun. it's good to love a lot of things. but there's quite a stigma against it here in korea. while it's just fine for someone to enjoy many groups here, it's treated differently when you go see the groups in person. for things like music shows, when you are there to support "your group", it's generally looked down upon for people to cheer at recordings for multiple artists.

---

there's a bit of a problem sometimes (especially with fans who are new here and don't understand the stigma against it), for fans to do what's called "line jumping". where they will line up at a music show to see one group in the morning, and then after the recording is over they go get in another line to see a different group. actively supporting multiple groups during the same promotion period, and especially during the same day, is seen as strange and some people can get offended by it. supporting a group is a really big deal here, and sometimes it's treated like more of a job than a hobby or passtime.

i have heard many horror stories, too...my friend once told me that during a music show recording, there were fans of many groups in the audience (because sometimes if a fandom is a little smaller they can fit in multiple fangroups, then let all those artists perform without having to switch out the fans or change seating). i'll leave out the group names for anonymity's sake, but while one group was performing some girls from my friend's fandom started cheering and yelling the fanchant of that group, even though it wasn't the group they were signed up to see. because they yelled the fanchant of the other (rival) group, their fanstaff came over and confiscated their fanclub membership cards and kicked them out of the building. because especially if you are a fanclub member, you are not allowed to show any support to another group in public events. they yelled the fanchant and publicly supported another group, adding their cheers to the rival group's recording, so they were kicked out of the fanclub for it. it's a serious offense...
