Wonder Girls Korean Perf Schedule!

Posted: 16 May 2010 11:48 PM PDT

It won’t be for very long, but Korean Wonderfuls will see their lady idols once again, not only on the variety shows but the stage. The Wonder Girls will be performing and promoting ‘2 Different Tears’ on kpop tv starting the 20th, first on Mnet’s M Countdown, then KBS Music Bank on the 21st, MBC Music Core on the 22nd along with an appearance  at the 2010 Dream Concert which, by the way will be aired in place of Inkigayo that week as well. Of course, let’s not forget the tour next month!  As an American, it’s strange that I’m more excited to see them on KBS than in Washington D.C., but then again, hasn’t kpop warped  us all?

Wonder Girls reveal their hectic promotional schedule in Korea

Posted: 16 May 2010 11:33 PM PDT

Having released their new song, 2 Different Tears this past weekend and having a successful album launch party, the Wonder Girls has returned home to Korea as they pursue a hectic promotional schedule for the next 2 weeks.

Almost immediately after concluding their album launch party, the girls were on the plane back home and reached Seoul on the 17th where they will begin filming for the latest episode Family Outing 2 after touching down. The episode will be shown in early June and marks Kim Heechul’s first recording as a fixed member.

The Wonder Girls will be performing on music shows from May 20th – 22nd starting with M! Countdown and followed by Music Bank, Music Core. They are also scheduled to perform at the 2010 Dream Concert on the 22nd as well.

For fans who can’t make it to the stadium, they can catch the delayed broadcast the following day on the 23rd through SBS. The telecast will take over the usual broadcast of Inkigayo which is pre-empted this Sunday.

The Wonder Girls will also be recording KBS2TV’s Win Win on the 20th and this will be aired the following week on the 25th. We can expect more than those already listed as the Wonder Girls have received lots of program invitations and are working out the schedule before confirming anything.

A JYP Entertainment representative expressed, “The Wonder Girls and fans have showed a lot of enthusiasm regarding the girls promotions this time because it’s been a long while. So we hope that fans can wait just a little while longer.”

Photos of SNSD’s Seohyun in University Revealed

Posted: 16 May 2010 11:10 PM PDT

There’s been a buzz throughout the internet as pictures have surfaced of SNSD’s maknae, Seohyun, attending university!

Seohyun is currently a theater major at Dongkook University as a member of the Class of 2010 (in Korea, your class year is the year you enter school), and a classmate released these pictures. The original netizen who posted these pictures wrote, “She’s been working hard in school… I’ve gathered some pictures of her during her time at university.” In the pictures, you can see Seohyun carrying her lunch tray, studying in class, signing autographs, and taking pictures with some a fan.




Netizens commented, “Her beauty shines wherever she is,” and, “It looks like Seohyun’s gonna work ’til she drops.”

I don’t know how she gets her work done, though. It looks like her fans can’t tell whether they’re at a fan signing or at university!

Big Bang Releases Official MV For ‘Tell Me Goodbye’

Posted: 16 May 2010 10:45 PM PDT


After much waiting and positive reponses from fans upon hearing the song ‘Tell Me Goodbye’, an official MV has been released!

Be prepared to hear new parts of the song that we previously didn’t hear! The 5 of them are looking super suave the only way they can be; it’s a totally different look from what they were sporting during their Lollipop II promotions; think dark, vintage look. Seriously, these boys are chameleons.

This track was was made for super hit Korean Drama ‘IRIS’ and this song will be included in the Japanese version the of the Original Soundtrack.

Secret wants boyfriends

Posted: 16 May 2010 10:42 PM PDT

With the passing of Adult’s Day in Korea, a day celebrating the passage of teens to adults, it was revealed that three of the members of girl group Secret had also celebrated the day and had some thoughts to share.

Members Sunhwa, Ji Eun, Zinger with the exception of leader, Hyosung (a year older), were all born in 1990 and have turned/will be turning 20 this year. In Korea, this is the age where you are officially viewed as a full fledged adult. So how do the members feel about their recent passage into the adult realm?

Sunhwa said, “Now that I’m a real adult, I kind of like the idea but hate it at the same time. As much as I’ve grown, I’ve got to act accordingly. I want to meet with my friends and gossip while drinking, but now I can’t as much, so I feel a bit sad.

Ji Eun said, “It doesn’t feel like I’m an adult yet. But I think I’m realizing the responsibilities that come with being grown up. I will work hard to show a more mature side of me through music and my own humanity.

Finally, Zinger said, “Because everyone has congratulated me for my success, I feel grown up. I don’t want to live a linear life but instead roll through it now.

Though they all have different thoughts on their new found maturity, they all agreed that they wanted boyfriends as their Adult’s Day gifts. Of course no one would ever reject these beautiful gals but what with their company on their case all the time, perhaps they could get “secret” boyfriends.

Big Bang Back in “Tell Me Goodbye’ MV

Posted: 16 May 2010 10:31 PM PDT

Miss Big Bang as much as I do? Well, they’re back…kinda. Check out their Godfather-inspired MV for their Japanese single, ‘Tell Me Goodbye.’ It’s a gangster epic – G-Dragon is a lovelorn alcoholic, Daesung sings in the rain, Seungri is a morally conflicted detective, TOP is a priest/mob boss (?) and Taeyang….is a really hot guy. Also, TOP, there are very few things about you I would complain about but I better not see that hair for the Korean comeback.

It’s nicely shot as well, so even non-fans of Big Bang might want to give this MV a peak.

Epik High, the Victims of Thievery

Posted: 16 May 2010 10:21 PM PDT


It seems like even some of the biggest celebrities can’t get away from the slime of the Earth. Tablo revealed through his Twitter that Epik High has been robbed.

He wrote his frustrations through a Tweet, saying, “Someone broke through the team car’s window and stole my manager’s wallet, etc, what the heck… Work hard and make as much money as your greed, thieves.

Let’s hope that this incident will be settled soon. Nobody should ever steal something that someone has worked so hard for.

A Hacker Leaked CN Blue’s Original Album Jacket Cover

Posted: 16 May 2010 09:58 PM PDT

Ahead of their impending comeback with their second mini-album, Blue Love, CN Blue experienced an odd setback: the leaking of their album’s jacket cover.

A representative from their agency, FNC Music, commented, “Ahead of their comeback, CN Blue’s jacket cover was leaked twice so we had to re-shoot and modify the concept.”

The photos released on the 17th were filmed in an amusement park. The boys are all picture in white suits, with sharp blue accents. In the original album jacket, the boys are all seen excitedly riding in an amusement park ride. This picture (displayed above) was leaked back in April, and fans had thought that it was simply a picture for a fashion magazine shoot. On the contrary, it turned out to be the concept jacket cover for the group’s second album.

FNC Music hid their surprise at this turn-of-events, and they quickly covered up by re-shooting the album cover. The company’s representative continued, “We had finished filming and were in the process of working on the pictures, but we were taken aback to see that the pictures were leaked online.”

Further investigation into this situation revealed that this was the result of hacking from a foreign IP address. There’s no information yet if any action was taken, but it’s not all bad news. Their second product looks just as good as the first!

CN Blue will release their album Blue Love this coming May 19th, and they will hold their comeback stage on the 20th.

Big Bang lets loose “Tell Me Goodbye” music video!

Posted: 16 May 2010 09:54 PM PDT

It’s been entirely too long since we’ve seen the young men of Big Bang together in a music video, but YG Entertainment has finally delivered the official MV for the quintet’s Japanese track Tell Me Goodbye! As we earlier reported, this track was was made for IRIS’s Japanese OST.

A few years back, Big Bang debuted with a hip hop concept, and has since experimented with more eccentric and colorful styles in recent years. This time around, we get to see all five members mature for a dark, vintage look (including TOP with gray hair!) which perfectly fits the grim atmosphere.

Although the mood of the music video itself is quite melancholy, I’m sure VIPs will be overjoyed to see all five members performing again, so without further delay, check out the brand new track & music video here!

2PM’s Taecyeon Afraid of Joining Military

Posted: 16 May 2010 09:43 PM PDT

On a recent episode of Family Outing 2, the family took a trip to an army base in Kang Won Do.

The family happily enjoyed their visit in the military base as viewers can see them enjoying a ride on a military truck. TaecYeon and JoKwon even commented that “This is really our first time riding this”. However, as much as the family was excited, Taecyeon was seen flustered the whole time. What’s the reason behind this?

While looking around the military truck, Yoona stated to TaecYeon and JoKwon,“You two are going to get a chance to ride it soon”, to which TaecYeon nervously responded, “Do you really have to say that now…” and was left speechless the entire time.

Make sure to catch this episode!

Jung Yonghwa has been reading a lot because of Seohyun

Posted: 16 May 2010 09:15 PM PDT

With their upcoming new album, rock band idol group CNBLUE recently revealed their transformed charismatic self in the June edition of Singles.

In the photo shoot, the members are shown with heavy smoky makeup and a chic expression to show off a bad boy image.

CNBLUE’s maknae member Lee Jung Shin said in an interview regarding their new album, “Like the first album, this album has a punky rock feel, but there are also fresh songs that match with the summer season. It is overall very bright and clear.”

Leader Jung Yonghwa added, “It [album] consists of songs that are easy and rhythmical so they are good to sing along to. Moreover, because we have personally composed and wrote some of these songs, this album is more precious to us,” showing a particular affection for their new album.

About how they became sudden stars soon after releasing the first album I’m A Loner back in January, Jung Yonghwa responded, “I still don’t think the album went well. Although the first start was very good, our goal is for the band culture in Korea to be stable and loved through us.”

When Yonghwa was asked what he does for leisure during his spare time, he replied unexpectedly, “I received a lot of influence lately from wife Seohyun so I’ve been reading a lot of books.” Jung Yonghwa and SNSD’s Seohyun are a make-believe couple on the MBC reality show We Got Married.

Furthermore, when husband Yonghwa was asked who his ideal girl type was, he wittily said, “It’s hard to say right now because I’m married,” causing laughter. Fellow member Kang Min Hyuk replied, “My ideal type is an older girl I can lean on and have support from,” choosing actress Park Jin Hee as his ideal.

[news] U-KISS’s Kiseop, Successfully Putting In 650 Won Into His Nostrils… Crowned As Idol With The Best “Burst Nose”

Posted: 16 May 2010 08:58 PM PDT


U-KISS’s Kiseop has become a hot topic for his ability to put 650 won coins into his nose.

During the filming of KBS JOY ‘Idol League’ that will be aired on the coming May 18th, Kiseop took part in the ‘Catch A Mouse’ game that was made popular by the past variety program ‘Heroine 6′. During the game, they had to put 500 won, 100 won and 50 won coins into their nose, which is something bizarre and daring for idols to do.

The two MCs, Eun Jiwon and Moon Hee Jun, took the challenge first by putting a 500 won into their nose. However, both of them gave up due to the pain.

For the penalty, Kiseop has to put 500 won coins into both of his nostrils, showing a side of him that hasn’t been shown before, which made the crew and the members burst into laughing.

U-KISS ‘empty-headed’ Kiseop’s nostrils-in-action can be seen on the May 18th broadcast of KBS JOY ‘Idol League’ Episode 3, at 6:50 pm.

T-ara members visit Eunjung at Coffee House filming site

Posted: 16 May 2010 08:48 PM PDT

T-ara has made a surprise visit to see their leader, Eunjung at the filming site of her drama, Coffee House recently.

On the 16th, the members visited the film site to support Eunjung and prayed for Coffee House to be a big hit.

That day, T-ara members went to the market and each used their own allowance money in order to buy rice cakes, snacks, foods, and other party materials. After purchasing, the girls went to an empty filming set and held a small traditional ceremony there with actors, actresses, and drama staffs members.

The affiliated drama crew and personnel were all surprised over T-ara’s unexpected visit, and the girl group used a camera to take pictures of the moment. Although actor Kang Ji Hwan and PD Pyo Min Soo were at first a bit flustered over the girls’ visit, the atmosphere soon became friendly.

It is said that Eunjung teared after seeing how much work and time the rest of the T-ara members sacrificed for her. Meanwhile, Coffee House is a pro-drama about hot passionate individuals that will make viewers who watch the drama feel just as passionate. The first episode of this drama airs on the 17th so be sure to catch it!

It’s always nice when idol group members visit one another to cheer and provide support. I remember when Big Bang did a similar event like T-ara where they visited member T.O.P at his filming site for the drama I Am Sam.

4Minute Gets Help Teasing

Posted: 16 May 2010 08:34 PM PDT

4Minute is continuing the comeback preparations with a teaser and GASP it features BEAST?!  I admit, I watched mostly because I have some major jealousy issues but found that for once I am digging 4minute’s concept.  The tough girl act suits them and the song had got some power to it.  My eyes are just grateful we have left behind the pattern assault from their earlier looks.  They get too up close and personal with my boys though and I will have to rescind my temporary approval.

[news] Reason behind KARA’s “Were with you” called inappropriate by KBS

Posted: 16 May 2010 07:36 PM PDT


KARA’s world cup song “Were with you” deemed “Inappropriate” for broadcast by KBS. The reason behind this is that The song has used a background music from SBS’s world cup campaign.

On the 17th, KBS said over a phone interview that the song was indirectly advertising for SBS and they have made the decision that it is inappropriate for broadcast in KBS.

Meanwhile, MBC has made “Were with you” available for broadcast.

MBC said that the song and the lyrics did not seem to have any problems to be considered inappropriate and after consideration and discussions it was considered possible to be on broadcast.

But still, since the music used SBS’s world cup campaign song they will be reviewing this further and perhaps SBS will be reconsidering this issue.

Look’s like there is strong competition and dispute between KBS, MBC and SBS.

[NEWS] Taeyang on Kim Yuna “I don’t want people to worry.”

Posted: 16 May 2010 07:34 PM PDT

The idol group BIGBANG gave the opinion on Kim Yu-Na the Figure Queen.

They said it on KBS 2TV Entertainment Tonight that aired on May 15 which featured the making of the World Cup song with Kim Yu-Na.

"Working together with the world class hero was pumping up the energy" said Taeyang. When the interviewer told them that Yu-Na is worried that Big Bang fans will not like her, he replied, "we're worried that the citizens (of Korea) will not like us!" 

"Seungri wanted to put his arm around her shoulder and jump with her, but he couldn't bring himself to do it, so he kept jumping with his arm above her shoulder!" G-Dragon revealed.

That's the scene where SeungRi and TaeYang had to protect Kim Yu-Na as her own bodyguards and DaeSung had done a solo single shot with her,but it was in a humiliating concept and caused a wide laugh instead.

Kim Yu-Na and BIGBANG (G-Dragon,TaeYang,T.O.P,DaeSung and SeungRi) have joined forces together for the World Cup song ?SeungRi Ae HamSeouk? that was released as a digital single on May 11.



Thanks to TeamBigBang

Vanilla Lucy’s Daehae is a Kim Hyun Joong look-a-like?

Posted: 16 May 2010 07:15 PM PDT

Electronica group Vanilla Lucy’s vocalist Dahae is receiving a lot of attention lately because of her similar appearance to SS501’s handsome leader Kim Hyun Joong.

After debuting on May 14th with the song French Love at KBS’s music program Music Bank, Daehae posted a selca picture via minihomy. This picture was the one that caught many netizens’ attention as it showed a close resemblance to Kim Hyun Joong.

Regarding the matter, Daehae said, “I’ve heard often that I look like SS501’s Hyun Joong and Super Junior’s Heechul. As a girl, it’s not a good thing to hear that you resemble guys, but because these guys have such a good appearance, I’m rather honored to hear this. I definitely want to meet them someday.”

Daehae continued, “I don’t know if it’s because of my voicy looks, but I’ve always been more popular with the girls than the boys. If you get to know me, I’m actually a pretty sophisticated girl so please look favorably upon me.”

I could see how people might think Kim Hyun Joong and Dahae look similar to each other, but to me they still look a lot different.

What do you guys think, resemblance or no?
