[news] YG brings on all the warriors, YG to take the Summer

Posted: 17 Jun 2010 10:55 PM PDT



Huge activities are coming for Big Bang, 2ne1, Se7en and Gummy. YG will be filling in on hot summer with their artists, and according to the saying of YG CEO Yang Hyun, "YG brings all the warriors".

YG family will be making a huge comeback after a long haitus. 2ne1 was not able to release a new album after their first mini album released July last year. Big Bang was busy in Japan having a hiatus in South Korea as well as long years of hiatus from Se7en and Gummy. Why?

The reason is simple. "The artists are preparing well as well as their music and themselves, which is more important. YG members have been given enough time and were practicing for their new songs. In the first half, They had no reason to hit the market because of lack of 'content' and it's said, by July, YG Singers will all return in order" the representative said.

YG hit makers Teddy and Perry as well as other main producers have been working hard for the songs of all the YG artists, also they have been working hard for their music as well as working in the United States for the quality of their music. There was not enough room for the big shot artist's in the first half of the year.

"Big bang were impressed to see 2ne1's success, now YG artists are not inferior to the idea of debuting in the U.S. Market, and they receive such compliments".

Signs for the comebacks and debuts from YG are approaching this summer. First off is Taeyang of Big Bang who will release his first full solo album in July 1.

YG via their homepage said, "Taeyang has become one of our first artists as he was a trainee 13 to 10 years now, He wanted to pursue his own music and he will try to put all our best efforts for the success of his solo album".

Following Taeyang is Se7en. He has been targeting the U.S. Market and also had a long haitus of three years in the domestic industry. By the end of July he will make a comeback with a solo album. Se7en fans are sick of waiting for Se7en and expressed their excitement for the official comeback of the solo singer.

By July 24 and 25, Gummy after 4 years after debut will be having her first solo concert. After her hits "As a man" and "Because of You" from her comeback album this year, she will be pulling off her first solo concert this year.

Next are 2ne1 and Big Bang, where 2ne1 was able to make their first stage in Japan with Big Bang who had a successful debut in Japan for the past 2 years. They have been receiving praise from the Japanese media most especially 2ne1 for their stage performance, skills and personality which combined well in one package.

After the World Cup fever will melt in South Korea, YG Family will take on July onwards with back to back comebacks and debuts from their artists and solo debuts from the members of the idol groups as well.

[News] Super Junior Kim Heechul Choi Siwon Transformed into "Runaway" and "Pursuer"

Posted: 17 Jun 2010 10:12 PM PDT




Super Junior members Kim Heechul and Choi Siwon who recently released their 4th album and are actively promoting revealed their manly and frank image through an interview with the lifestyle magazine "Singles."

Kim Heechul and Choi Siwon showcased their different charms with the concept of a "daring criminal" and a "gentle cop" in the photo shoot, which looked as if it was from a scene from a movie. Also, in the interview which occurred at the same time as the photo shoot, they frankly revealed their personality, charms, and their ideal type of girl with the topic of "real mind of homme fatale."

First, Kim Heechul said, "my personality is like, "wielding a sword." I need a women who can be like, "a sheath." I like someone who's elegant, nice and can softly lead me. I didn't care if they were older or younger than me before, but now, since there are many cute women hoobaes, I'm more attracted to a younger woman."

Similar to Kim Heechul, Choi Siwon said, "I like someone who's positive and has pure eyes. I hope my future wife will be someone who can understand my unstable occupation and is able to maintain the household well." Both of them preferred "a woman who can take care of them well."

Even though they look social, to become truly close to them, there seems to be a wall that you can't cross. How are they on one on one meetings, how are they normally and kind of people are they? Kim Heechul said, "there are limited number of people who I'm deeply close to. Hongki and Mithra are two people that I mostly meet with. Because we three are AB blood type, we are attracted to each other." When we meet, we would normally see a movie, talk about girls and have fun time. We would say this person from a girl group is pretty, so and so. Don't most guys talk about this?." He revealed his honesty as a young man in his 20s.

Recently, other members imitated on a variety show Choi Siwon's daily life which looks as if it's from a photo shoot. When asked about how true that was, he said, "somethings are exaggerated. So, I do feel somewhat aggrieved. To me, it was a natural motion, to the hyungs, they thought it was funny. Truthfully, I don't say hello with three fingers up."

These two are already members of a veteran group who debuted 5 years ago. When asked if they have habits or living style that they've acquired through them living as celebrities, Kim Heechul said, "I changed a lot that even the members would agree. Actually, at the beginning of the debut, I hated if someone was next to me. However, I realized that inconsistency with my emotion was bad for programs. So, I try to smooth over the situation and that made my personality change."

Choi, Siwon said, "because other members are playful, my personality became more cheerful that I would be playing with them together. Before, if a member would joke, I would just watch from the side. Now, I chip in. Even though I don't try to do it purposely, I'm naturally influenced by them." He revealed his love for the group by saing, "it's not because I'm a celebrity. I've change because I'm a Super Junior member."

You can see for yourself Super Junior Kim Heechul and Choi Siwon's fashion photo shoot and the detailed interview in July issue of the lifestyle magazine, "Singles."

When MC Ji Suk Jin asked youngest member Jiyoung whether she felt a generation gap between herself and the other members, the cute singer confessed, “During dance practice, I would continue practicing but the other members would lie down on the sofa and massage their legs, so I feel a generation gap.” There was great laughter along with Jiyoung’s reply, and fellow member Nicole added, “I wasn’t like this before, but recently even if I practice just a little, I feel muscle pain.”

To this response, the MC then cleverly asked, “As the girl who felt muscle pain, what year were you born in again Nicole?” and Nicole immediately replied in a bright manner, “The year 1991!” causing the entire studio to laugh at the situation.

Meanwhile, aside from Jiyoung’s generation gap confession, the KARA members also talked about their individual complexes.

If Nicole feels muscle pain at her age, then let me just say that in that case I should have arthritis by now…

But today it was confirmed that the singer will appear in greatly anticipated drama My Girlfriend is a Nine-Tailed Fox along with cast members Lee Seung Gi and Shin Min Ah who were already confirmed earlier. It is still not known what role the singer will play for this drama, but people are guessing that she will be the rival girl character in a love triangle between Lee Seung Gi and Shin Min Ah.
