[NEWS] 101228 Singer Jay Park holds first show of nationwide tour

Posted: 28 Dec 2010 05:10 AM PST

Singer Jay Park held the first show of his nationwide tour in Seoul over the weekend, according to his agency SidusHQ on Tuesday.

Sidus announced in a press release that the 22-year-old singer held two series of shows for his concert titled "White Love Party Concert" at the Jangchung Gymnasium in Seoul on Christmas Eve with another performance in Busan at the KBS Hall on December 26.

He kicked off the concert donning a black suit, singing his single "Count On Me" and shared the stage with rap duo Supreme Team and Gonzo.

The show continued with a performance with dance team AOM member Cha Cha for the song "Speechless," Park's rendition of singer Na Yoon-kwon's song "Lean On Me" and a special serenade.

He also sang a number of his hit tunes including the remix version of "Bestie" and pop songs such as "Run It," "Take You Down," "Down" and "Demon" from the soundtrack of his upcoming movie "Hype Nation."

"I am very happy to have spent Christmas with my fans. I want to thank all of those fans who came to see the concert," Park was quoted as saying.

Park, whose Korean name is Park Jae-beom, has been one of the most popular singers in the Korean music industry since debuting as a member of 2PM in 2008.

He parted with the group last year after stirring controversy over remarks he wrote regarding Korea during his trainee period.

He kicked off his solo career this year after signing with major talenthouse Sidus HQ and has released several single albums since.

[News] SS501 Kim Hyungjun . U-KISS Kibum, 'Knowing Piro Piro~'

Posted: 28 Dec 2010 01:35 AM PST

Brothers, SS501's Kim Hyungjun and U-KISS's Kim Kibum had jumped into a character business industry.

Both of them are co-CEO of 'HnB Company', a character design and media development company that they created and named using their initial, but it can also mean 'Happy and Bright', or 'the company that is always pleasure to serve you'. Their first character product is called 'Piro Piro', which will be launched officially on the 29th.

HnB said, "'Piro Piro' is a bear with tired eyes. The dark circles under the eyes represent the busy life and weary look of modern people. We are selling this product so that you can use this character as a neck pillow and cushion." Piro Piro is a cute character that was created as an endurance to fight against fatigue virus, which is well presented by the dark circles under the eyes.

HnB added, "The VIP system and a separate board for international users are expected to be launched in January. User can change the default board language into their preferred language". Some of the reactions of the fans of SS501 and U-KISS when they heard the news were "I want to buy it as soon as possible", "It's really cute" etc. The pre-order selling has started, and additional orders have been placed ahead of the initial orders. The product is getting an explosive reaction as there are many suggestions/applications regarding the license agreement from the local and international markets.

Kibum said, "My brother and I have spent a long time in the development and research of the design of this product. Special events have also been planned in regards of the official launch on the 29th. We have worked hard (for this)."
