Be Honest!

On December 7th, the MissA member tweeted the following:

Min: “Aren’t they so adorable“

Personally, I am biased toward Alvin and the Chipmunks. I really prefer the cartoon creatures. Do you think that was a “Bad Girl” response?

[POPSpot] Where was Oh Ji-ho,Han Jung-soo,and Song Jong-ho seen recently?

Go ahead… make your guess and continue reading to see if you are right!

On December 6th, they attended a VIP screening of OCN’s newest television series “Yaksha“. They were seen at Seoul’s CJ CGV Theatre in Yongsan. The historical series, starring Jo Dong-hyuk, is about the leader of a secret military squad for the king. His simple life of living for his brother and lover are turned upside down when he falls into a trap set by his own brother. The show follows the young leader as he sets out for his revenge.

The former Slave Hunter actor has apparently become a big fan of hunting (historical style) and he brought two friends along for the ride.

What do you think of their VIP attire?

OCN’s Yaksha will premiere on December 10th.

KBS Drama Awards!

The DBSK three have been talking with the network about performing at this years’ awards ceremony.

Here is the latest from a JYJ’s spokesperson:

“It is true that we are sharing discussions in a positive manner, however, at the moment, the final decision for their performance has not been confirmed. We have not yet received a final word from KBS."

Also, a representative from the Awards stated:

"It is true that we are negotiating their performance for Park Yoochun's 'SungKyunKwan Scandal'. However, it is currently not a confirmed situation."

They have won over Asia,America,and the rest of the world with their talent and charms…this ceremony should be a piece of cake since their entertainment co. ”Break Out” last year.

Their “Heart, Mind and Soul” will direct them to the “Purple Line” of success on KBS!

Will a JYJ appearance prompt you to tune in?

Kim Hyun-joong will “Dream High” with his “Jaksal Chicken”!

Posted: 07 Dec 2010 06:39 AM PST

We have the latest Hyun-joongflash!

Kim Hyun-joong has two updates. He will make a guest appearance in the upcoming KEYEAST/JYPE drama “Dream High” and he just reopened a restaurant with his friends called Jaksal Chicken!

Where is my proof? You don’t trust a POPSEOUL writer? Where is your Holiday Spirit?

Here is the on-set filming photo from “Dream High“

Is it just me,or does this photo have a Ji-hoo (Boys Over Flowers) feel to it…minus the cheese hair.

Originally,the Jaksal Chicken restaurant was opened for business for quite some time. Hyun-joong and his friends were forced to close down after many fans made numerous prank calls.

Hopefully, fans will behave this time as the new Jaksal Chicken restaurant has reopened for business!

KBS’s Dream High will premiere January 3rd 2011.

[Plastic Fantastic] The Male V-Line

Posted: 07 Dec 2010 06:18 AM PST

Some people (netizens) say that Hyun Bin and Seven look alike, since they got the same plastic surgery…

Since his “Digital Bounce” comeback, the reviews have been mixed, whether or not he should have gotten that jaw-shaving surgery, giving him a pointy V-line instead of his formerly “strong” jaw line. On the other side, some fans don’t like how feminine the surgery made his face, suggesting that he seems “weaker.”

Most fans are still satisfied with the change, agreeing that his jaw was too boxy before. Others say it was just a change of style that brought the jaw change: before Seven was strong-jawed and manly; now he is more stylish and chic.

With the premier of “Secret Garden,” suddenly people started commenting that Hyun Bin strikingly resembles Mr. Seven, but why? Finally, netizens figured it out, Hyun Bin was also shaved with the plastic wand. Though not as extreme as Seven’s change, Hyun Bin jaw is not only pointy, but distracts attention from his deep dimple.

Fans believe that the jaw shaving didn’t change his charisma, but it’s the fact that the change of jaw line came with a change of weight — Hyun Bin looks skinnier than ever. The thinner jaw also makes him look even more skinny. Super skinny Hyun Bin equals not happy fans.

What do you think of the jaw transformation? Do the fellas need the V-line too?

“The Fugitive Plan B” has one final surprise!

Posted: 07 Dec 2010 06:14 AM PST

This time around, it isn’t the addition of another American!

Korean American actor/model Daniel Henney will steam up the screens once more (along with the forever hot, Rain) to completely “runaway” with your heart.

On December 7th Daniel’s Team D tweeted the following message on his official page:

“The last episode of Fugitive airs this week! The finale airs Wed 12/8 with a special behind the scenes episode on Thurs 12/9. – Team D”

Are you ready for one more day of drama sexiness?

Make sure you tune into KBS’s “The Fugitive Plan B“ this Wednesday and Thursday at 9:55pm (KST)

After School UEE’s Drama Fails To Make The Shot

Posted: 06 Dec 2010 11:16 PM PST

Unfortunately even with UEE, golf is still not a fun sport.

On December 6th, broadcasting station, MBC, announced that After School member UEE‘s drama “Birdie Buddy” (버디버디) has been canceled.

UEE made her acting debut last year in the drama “Queen Seon Duk” and “You’re Beautiful” and earlier this year made a cameo on the drama “My Girlfriend is a Gumiho“.

‘Birdie Buddy” would have been the 1st lead role in a drama for UEE but now it seems that might never happen.

An MBC representative stated, “ The drama would follow the Monday-Tuesday miniseries, "Queen of Reversals." However, during the programming negotiations, they felt it was unsuitable and was rejected as a result."

In other words with drama, “Queen of Reversals” killing it in the ratings and the subject of UEE‘s drama being golf, MBC didn’t think anyone would care enough to watch.

Instead though another drama "Friends of Switched Fates" will take over the time slot.

There may still be a chance for “Birdie Buddy” to air on the small screen since "Friends of Switched Fates" is behind production schedule.

Guess its bye bye birdie for UEE‘s drama. So the question is, would anyone bother to watch a drama about golf?

After School Is In “Love Love Love” With Their Newest Single

Seven member group After School returns this holiday season with their newest single “Love Love Love”

“Happy Pledis” is a special holiday album Pledis Entertainment has created for its 3 top female idols, Son Dam Bi, Orange Caramel, and After School. Proceeds from album sales will be donated to the 'Save the Children' cause which aids children in poverty.

Member Bekah was sadly unable to participate in the holiday album since she is on break in Hawaii (lucky girl!).

Can you spot all the SNSD members?

Posted: 06 Dec 2010 03:46 PM PST

A pre-debut photo of SNSD has surfaced and this photo is creating quite a stir…

This photo includes all 9 members (although one face is completely covered). But if you look close enough, you’ll see Soyeon who is now a T-ara member but was a SM trainee in the past.

Many fans and netizens are impressed that the girls look the same and have minor changes in their facial features. But aside from getting older, do you think the girls look the same or can you barely recognize them?
