[News] Kim Hyung-joon says turned down Park Jung-min acting advice

Posted: 15 Nov 2010 06:34 AM PST

SS501 member Kim Hyung-joon has said he turned down Park Jung-min's offer to teach him acting.

The remark came during a press conference for Kim's musical "Cafe In" on Monday while responding to a reporter's question on how the members of his five-member boy band reacted when he was cast for the musical.

After commenting that "everyone was surprised," Kim explained, "Park offered to teach me to act but I didn't respond once and then I politely turned him down the next time he asked."

While "Cafe In" will be Kim's musical debut -- he has only led a singing career since debuting as a member of popular boy band SS501 in 2005 while fellow bandmate Park has appeared in several musicals and a single-episode drama.

Kim added, "They all congratulated me wholeheartedly and promised to come watch me perform. I'm happy that I have something to show off to them about."

The 23-year-old singer will play the double role of sommelier Jimin and Jung-min in the musical, a love story about a sommelier and a barista whose ex-lovers get married as soon as they break up with them, produced by actor Kang Ji-hwan.

The show will run in Korea at the Baekam Art Hall from November 24 to January 23.

[Video] BEAST 'Beautiful' is finally out!

Posted: 15 Nov 2010 03:39 AM PST


There was a mistake on Cube's part on releasing Beast new MV. The first released was not actually the full version of the music video. Seems like they are not done yet with teasing the fans.

But everything has it's end, after teasing us with the preview of their song "Beautiful", BEAST finally unleashed what the whole song really looks like and all about.

Unlikely from what style they were using before, BEAST's Beautiful MV got a story in it and the song has it's different vibe. The boys were not at all serious on the mv and it is really fun to watch. The members have their own characters on the video and they really did act good on this.

Showing a different side of BEAST, here is finally their MV "BEAUTIFUL"

[News] SNSD's Different Kinds Of Sleeping Habits!

Posted: 15 Nov 2010 01:04 AM PST

The girl group Girls' Generation came out on KBS2-TV's "Happy Together Season 3" Thursday and talked about their daily life, including the strange sleeping habits of certain members.

Seohyun pointed out Sooyoung, saying, "I'm usually the first to get up in the morning so I go around waking the members. Their reactions are so different. Yuri for instance wants the lights off, Tiffany says she will get up but doesn't, Jessica does not even budge, Sunny groans and Taeyeon talks in her sleep."

She continued, "Sooyoung and Hyoyeon wake up fairly well but one day I tried to wake Sooyoung up and she snapped at me in her sleep to 'mind my own business.'"

MC Park Myeong-su likened Sooyoung to the sharp-tongued comedian Kim Gura. Seohyun said she was so shocked by the comment but Sooyoung didn't even recall what she said. Sooyoung defended herself, "I really don't remember. How can I say such a thing to sweet and kind Seohyun?"

MC Sin Bong-seon also performed the Girls' Generation's latest hit "Hoot."

[Video] SNSD Taeyeon’s & The One’s “Like A Star” MV Teaser Has Been Released !

Posted: 15 Nov 2010 01:00 AM PST


SNSD Taeyeon's release duet with her sunbae, The One whom she had sang a duet with before during her trainee days, and now a MV teaser of their duet has been released. It seems that the duet is titled, "Like A Star," and the MV features young actor, Yoo Seung Ho (known for his role in the Korean drama, God Of Study). Even though the teaser barely plays 30 seconds of the duet, HEY! you can already tell it's going to be beautiful. Her singing is just so sweet and soothing.

The "Taeyeon with Yoo Seung Ho" at the beginning of the teaser really makes me wonder if the full MV will show Taeng acting along with Yoo Seung Ho. I really hope she does! Anyways, remember to keep a look out for the full digital single release of "Like A Star" on the 17th. Let's hope that the 17th will also be the MV release date!

[News] Ratings Of The 3 Latest Idol Comebacks!

Posted: 15 Nov 2010 01:07 AM PST


Three of the most representative groups from three of the most representative entertainment companies in Korea have recently made their comebacks this fall season. It was no surprise that each of these three groups won number one honors on the live music performance shows in Korea. It's been established that all three groups have the three factors that idol groups these days need to have: good music, great performances, and enviable style.

These three groups -- Girls Generation from SM Entertainment, 2PM from JYP Entertainment, and 2NE1 from YG Entertainment -- were rated according to those three factors for their latest comeback songs, in comparison to their previous works.

  • Girls Generation : Music - , Performance↑, Style↑

After surprising their Korean fans with a surprise comeback, the girls released their third mini album "Hoot" late October. They've already hit number one on various music shows and music charts -- although rivals 2AM and Super Star K winners are giving them a good run for their money. This is of course a response that most singers can only dream of, however, compared to some of the other Girls Generation hits -- think "Gee" -- it's not exactly an explosive improvement.

Well, what about the ever so important performance factor? The dance moves for "Hoot" have been flashy and catchy. The motion of shooting a bow and arrow are displayed in an adorable yet sexy way, true to the group's signature style. It's something different, while at the same time maintaining the usual SNSD feel.

As for their style, their latest look has gone retro. Featuring a Barbie meets 007 look, some of the members have even gone blonde with big voluminous hairstyles. It's something new and the girls have pulled it off, upping their style icon status.
  • 2PM : Music - , Performance↑, Style -

2PM made their comeback in Ocrober with their new mini-album "I'll Be Back". The song stuck to the group's usual style where a kpop fan could turn it on, and immediately guess it's 2PM. However, this song scored more points not on the music charts, but on live performance shows.

The group has always been known for their strong, manly performances. Their latest song "I'll Be Back", only added fuel to this reputation. It featured a 90's dance move, the shuffle step, which was something new and refreshing. They also focused on some finger movements that were inspired by the movie "Terminator". Add the acrobatics move and stunts that the boys did and you have an improved and hotter than ever 2PM live performance.

Style-wise, the guys have maintained their usual "beast-idol"-like image, featuring dark colors, edgy cuts, and smoky eye make up. Although, the eye make up was much heavier than usual for some people's tastes, others argued that the guys are simply keeping one step ahead of the pack. 2PM is after all, one of the original "beast-idol" groups!
  • 2NE1 : Music↑, Performance - , Style↑

After a long hiatus, the girls of 2NE1 made their highly-anticipated comeback last September with three title tracks -- something no other idol group has attempted before. The songs "Clap Your Hands", "Go Away", and "Can't Nobody" were rivaling each other for the number one spot on all the music charts! Though there were criticisms of too much auto-tune vocal synthesizing used, the overall response was very positive. This only served to clinch YG's status as one of the top companies in terms of music production quality.

Rather than sticking to strict choreography, the girls have been known to have a more free-style approach to their live performances. Their latest round of promotions was no different as they showed off a party-like vibe on stage. Nothing new, although still enjoyable to watch.

Known to have a very unique and edgier style, the girls did not dispappoint. Rather than going for something so over-the-top that one can only pull it off on stage, the girls went for flashy looks that could easily be worn in "real life" as well. They exuded sexiness, independence, and attitude.

Overall, the girls showed off a more grown-up image, the youngest member Minji in particular during her sexy dance solos. Their follow-up promotions for the song "It Hurts" threw yet another curveball, as 2NE1 focused more on their vocal abilities with a softer and more wistful concept. Style-wise, the ladies are always on top of the game.
