Posted: 12 Oct 2010 02:19 PM PDT

Jae-joong of JYJ visited the set of KBS drama “Sungkyunkwan Scandal” to cheer on his fellow group member, Park Yoo-chun.

On October 11, 2010, Kang Sung-pil, who plays Im Byung-choon in the popular drama, posted a picture he took with Jae-joong and Park Min-young on his twitter. He wrote, “Lovely dongsengs (term referring to little brother/sister)… Min-young and Sung-pil wish you the best with your showcase (referring to the first JYJ showcase that took place on October 12, 2010).”

Many fans have expressed that they are glad to see Jae-joong smiling and some even wrote that they are envious of Park Min-young. And most fans thanked the Kang Sung-pil for sharing such a cute picture.

Yes. Yoon Doo-joon of B2ST has been cast alongside Jokwon and Ga-in in the MBC sitcom “All My Love“.

On October 12, 2010, producers of the sitcom confirmed that Yoon Doo-joon has been cast. A representative from Yoon Doo-joon‘s management company also stated that negotiations have finalized.

Currently, Jokwon and Ga-in have been cast as twins in the MBC sitcom “All My Love“. It will premiere in November after the current MBC sitcom, “More Charming by the Day“, ends its run. Interestingly, as shown on the pictures below, Yoon Doo-joon has guest starred in “More Charming by the Day” previously, as well.

Yoon Doo-joon‘s character will appear starting from episode 3. Would Doo-joon succeed in his first major role in a sitcom or be another example of why idol stars should not branch off into acting?

Will TaeShock make a comeback?

His dream girl is ….. Jung Shi-ah!

Recently, Tae-min was asked on KBS’s “Happy Birthday” to choose the girl closest to his ideal among four ladies (Lee Hae-jung, Jung Shi-ah, Ahn Jin-kyung and Secret's Zinger).

His reason?

"My ideal type is a girl who is like a sunflower, always looking at me..When I see her(Jung Shi-ah), she always talks about her husband. Her act of doing so makes her look like a sunflower."

After hearing his kind words, Shi-ah exclaimed, "I shouldn't have gotten married”!

There may never be a TaeShock,but Tae-min will still find happiness one day with a sunflowery girl of his choice.

Watch the “sunny” moment here:

Police state the following about MC Mong:“The current situation has him very likely….

to be prosecuted for draft dodging."

A military affairs broker and a CEO of an entertainment agency have already been charged with helping MC Mong in his suspected draft dodging. In addition this, news that was recovered today is leaving everyone puzzled and shocked.

The following message is what police found online.The message dates back to January of 2005. It was a message (inquiry) from MC Mong posted on Naver(a popular internet portal website). An army surgeon responded to his post(by saying someone in a condition worse than that is still serving) and police believe he had another one of his teeth pulled so he would be exempt from joining the military. Read his message below:

"I checked the military laws and it says that I can receive an exemption, but what if I don't? It's a dental problem. I currently don't have 8 molars. I have one false molar. With just this, I receive a predicted score of 51 on my health test. However, one of my canine teeth and four of my front teeth are dentures, bringing me down to about 47 or 49. I printed the information I found on this site and found that a score between 49 and 51 is the minimum needed to get a level 5 exemption. Are there any instances where they don't give you a level 5 exemption if you get re-tested? Do they just strictly go by military laws? They only told me to check my physical ranking and I need a more detailed response. Have a lot of luck in the new year."

What do you think about the latest developments in the MC Mong case?
