The “Mischievous Kiss“ actress shares her thoughts about her new leading men.

You have seen the interviews,viewed the beginning of the drama,and analyzed the ratings. What’s next? Actress Jung S0-min’s opinions of her new leading men Kim Hyun-joong and Lee Tae-sung!

Below are the captions she posted for the pictures above:

Kim Hyun-joong - ” A photo of me in uniform! Hani and Seung-jo live together is the drama and because they attend the same high school, there are many scenes that I shoot with Hyunjoong-ssi. Although, Hyunjoong-ssi portrays a character as an arrogant guy, in actual fact …he's affectionate and friendly”

Lee Tae-sung-”Lee Taesung-ssi whose role is 'tough guy' Bong Jungu loves Hani wholeheartedly.In the drama,he shows off a strong Busan accent, and that one strand of permed fringe is so strong-impressioned, isn't it? His resemblence to the original Japanese manga is 100%. I really give it to him! I admit!”

What do you think about So-min’s selcas and captions?

V.O.S officially started the promotion of their duo’s new album today.

The two young men confessed,

"It feels like a debut stage to us. We can feel the pressure but we are totally excited about it. At first, we were concerned about what kind of music should we do after one of our member left the group. We hope fans can just accept us as the old V.O.S."

V.O.S did a great job in today's live performance of their new title song “Full Story”. The full music video of the new song will be released on September 17th. Meanwhile, check out the MV teaser!

Is this country,yours?

“Boys Over Flowers” star Kim So-eun has many fans in the country of Taiwan. Taiwanese fans are requesting she visit their country. The actresses’ popularity began to grow all over Asia after her role as Goo Hye-sun’s best friend in the hit 2009 drama “Boys Over Flowers”. Her management company,N.O.A Entertainment, announced that her recent role as a new wife in KBS’s daily series "Good Day" has made her a household name in Taiwan.

Congratulations to actress Kim So-eun on her international success!

Cha Seung-won falls ill

Posted: 16 Sep 2010 05:39 AM PDT

The actor and model is back home.

Cha Seung-won traveled to Japan over the weekend to continuing filming his new drama “Athena: goddess of War”. During filming, his health began to deteriorate and he was flown back to Korea for treatment.

His management agency,Taewon Entertainment, stated the following about their ailing star:”We will decide on when he will be returning depending on the pace of his recovery.”

The company hasn’t released his current condition or the reason behind his recent illness. The production company of the series is currently altering the script due to his absence.

POPSEOUL wishes Cha Seung-won a speedy recovery.

“Athena: Goddess of War” will premiere in November.

Onew loves being a workaholic!

Posted: 16 Sep 2010 05:18 AM PDT

The SHINee leader was quoted in a press conference earlier today about his views on hard work.

“I think that one person being able to do several things is an advantage,I used to feel distant about singers taking on acting but not anymore…… I think a lot can be shown including singing, acting and musicals when one is given the chance.”

The words above were quoted directly from the singer’s mouth. Well, quoted after it was translated,that is. At the September 16th press conference for his new musical ”Rock of Ages”,Onew expressed his views on multi-tasking. I guess the quoted text above proves why all the SHINee members work so hard for their fans. We applaud him on his positively,but remember the proper rest is very important too.

We wish Onew and the rest of the talented cast (Shin Sung-woo, Ahn Jae-wook, Onew, J and Dana) have a very successful run of their new musical.

Catch the Korean remake of the play about friendly rock musicians who sometimes even forget they are in a play! The musical based on 1980s rock hits will continue its run thru October 30th at the Olympic Park in Seoul,Korea.

BoA’s new hair cut!

Posted: 16 Sep 2010 05:00 AM PDT

Do you like her new blonde wavy hair style?

Continuing the great success of “Hurricane Venus”, BoA will release her sixth repackaged album on September 27th.

SM Entertainment announced earlier today(September 16th) that there will be 2 new songs included in the repackaged album. As you can see from the newly released jacket photo, the concept of the repackaged album will be different from “Hurricane Venus”. The first live performance of her new song is scheduled to be on KBS2′s “Music Bank” on September 24th.

Stay tuned for more updates!

Onew’s first girlfriend is Dana?

Posted: 16 Sep 2010 04:49 AM PDT

What about his celebrity crush Kim Yu-na?

This picture is not what it appears to be. SHINee’s Onew and singer Dana are not in love. They are two on stage performers in the newest Korean adaptation of the well-known musical “Rock of Ages”. September 15th was their debut performance and the two look very cozy. A little too cozy,we might add! POPSEOUL does not know of any secret romance at the present,but we will keep our ears open for you. You will soon know if their is a new “WOWOWOW” love in the “SHINee World”.

“Rock Of Ages” stars Shin Sung-woo, Ahn Jae-wook, Onew, J and Dana. The play will continue thru October 30 at the Olympic Park in Seoul,Korea.
