►►[MP3/DL] 2NE1’s CL & Minzy released “Please Don’t Go”!


I love it I love it I love it! It’s so hip hop and totally fits CL & Minzy’s style!

A little news:

YG Entertainment representative stated,

“Perhaps it’s because the two unnies made their solo debut before them, but CL and Minzy have been feeling a lot of pressure lately. The remaining members gather at the practice room to watch over and cheer on the maknaes. Although they are the youngest members, CL and Minzy have possessed not only rapping skills, but impressive vocals and performance ability even before their debut so we are confident that they will do just fine.”

►►Brown Eyed Girl Narsha choreographed the dance to BEGs’ new song “Sign”


Talk about talented! I like how she incorporated the fans 🙂

Brown Eyed Girls have been promoting their newest song “Sign” and their “massage dance” has been gaining much interest after the success of their “saucy hip move” from Abracadabra.

And guess what? BEG Narsha, with the help of the Yama Dance Team, thought of this dance!

Though we haven’t been seeing much of “Sign” these days, it’s still a hot topic in Korea. Narsha said, “This song is more feminine and it’s sexy, yet has a nice after effect. We were worried because we didn’t get to practice that much but people are having good reactions to it so we’re happy.”

►►2PM Junsu’s best friend, Jung JinWoo, joins “M To M” for singer debut


He’s cute ♥ However, M to M is super underrated! I really hope this brings up their popularity without damaging their talented voices and great songs! >.<

After issues with their contracts in their previous entertainment company, the 3 membered male group M to M returned with a new member named Jung JinWoo. He has been gathering much interest after being revealed to be the best friend of JunSu of 2PM.

With the reveal of Jung JinWoo’s face with the release of their digital single, many have been wondering if he’s the person JunSu introduced on ‘Introducing A Star’s Friend.’ Pop Up Entertainment confirmed it.

M to M’s company went on to say “JunSu and Jung JinWoo are both from Daegu and grew up together as best friends. He’s received a lot of help from JunSu, who debuted first.”

In the show, the two sang Lee EunMi’s ‘I Have A Significant Other’ through an R&B version. After the show aired, their practice videos were spread throughout the internet, even going up as the ‘Best Video’ and receiving much interest.

►►DBSK’s JaeChunSu got sued in China because of a fraud?


poor dears…I never expected so much bad things to happen like this in 2009 for them 😦

https://i0.wp.com/i49.tinypic.com/20zznyt.jpg

Jaejoong, Micky Yoochun and Junsu, the three members of TVXQ / DBSK / Tohoshinki who took legal actions against SM Entertainment, have been sued for fraud in China along with Chinese subsidiary of the controversial cosmetics company CreBeau.

The plaintiff is a firm which is the distributor of CreBeau products in the Shanghai, Jiang Su and Sanxi region. A representative of the plaintiff stated:

“We were told by CreBeau that the three members were the board members of CreBeau, so we naturally believed that they will partake in promotions, which is the reason why we invested in this business. However, the three members did not appear on product announcement in Shanghai last July, resulting in fans complaining to us and returning the products. The overall loss that we suffered amount up to 1 million Yuan ($150,000). Yoochun and Junsu apologized to us regarding the matter but this fraud left us with too much damage, so we sent CreBeau a notice on October 22nd telling them to pay for the damage caused by their misrepresentation. However, we did not receive an answer and CreBeau closed their office in Beijing, so we had no choice but to sue them.”

To this claim, CreBeau answered:

“We are analyzing this matter right now but it appears that they are making unreasonable claims. We have warned them about overly promoting the involvement of TVXQ members and it appears that they are suing them because we have stopped our ties with them due to various reasons. They say that we closed our office but in fact it just moved to another district of Beijing. Other distributors are doing fine in China.”

►►What words drove KARA’s Goo Hara to success?


Sometimes a little ‘bashing’ can really pump you up! Start taking actions instead of regrets and grudges, guys 🙂

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

On the latest episode of Star Golden Bell, MC Ji Suk Jin asked Kara‘s Goo Hara what words had motivated her during her debut.

Goo Hara said “When Jiyoung and I joined Kara as new members, I heard someone say ‘Those two are going to make it? There are so many others that are better, but those two are going to make it?’. I wanted to cry but managed to keep it in.”

She continued “I wanted to become successful and then find this person to say to them ‘Look at how big I have become’.”

The other MCs pressed her to reveal the identity of this person. Goo Hara only responded “It was a senior singer, and that’s what made it even more painful.”

I’m sure we are all more than happy that Hara is the one who made it!

Before the group’s comeback this month, they went to Thailand for promotions in late-October. And back then, Alexander was down with high fever, and was worried to have contracted the flu.

Alexander has taken Tamiflu and rested. And he recovered on the last day of their promotions and resumed schedule with the group.

UKiss’ company also said, “When we returned to Korea, we were still worried. So we sent him for examination at the hospital. Luckily there is nothing wrong with his health.

She’s off to college! I’m glad some one is finally setting a good example of how celebs should be 😀

https://i0.wp.com/i45.tinypic.com/27wyu4n.jpg

It’s a great day for Kara fans, because fellow member Nicole is officially a college girl now!

Nicole is currently studying extremely hard about dozens of different animals, such as cats and dogs.

It has been reported by the director of Veterinary Science major that he has been touched by the fact that Nicole has been showing honest enthusiasm for such a subject.

In related news, the program title, “Celebrities Attending College: Nicole,” will change to, “Nicole The Entertainer’s Introduction to Veterinary Science.”

However, the condition that Nicole has agreed to is that she must show excellent academic achievement or they will have to put a stop her studies. Talk about pressure!

Another con to this whole program is that Nicole must prepare to fight off the horny fan boys live a rocky campus life.

“Nicole The Entertainer’s Introduction to Veterinary Science,” will air on November 19. The first broadcast will show how Nicole will take on the challenge of being a college student, experience campus life, and Nicole’s tearful experience of her first midterm
