DBSK Bites the Hands that Feed them?
Breaking news! Or the closest thing you can get to breaking news when you can’t read Hangul. Various k-pop blogs and news outlets are reporting that Junsu, Micky and JaeJoong of god-like boyband Dong Bang Shin Ki have possibly filed a lawsuit against SM Entertainment. According to news blogs SM’s crappy and life-destroying contracts may [...]
The Curious Case of Kim Tae-hee
No, Kim Tae Hee is not aging backwards, like Benjamin Button, but there IS a similarly strange inverse proportion effect between her talent and popularity. Her acting resume is riddled with CFs and lackluster dramas, yet her name is still at the tip of all Korean men’s tongues. I watch an embarrassing amount of interview-based [...]
So Prection: Whose closet abs do I belong to?
Hints: My group is one half of a bigger group. I don’t often flash my abs unlike the leader of our brother group. During my trainee days, our entertainment company sent us to a boot camp which I passed. I’m the tallest among my members. I have a fear of creepy crawlies. Who am I? [...]
Put your hands UP for Russell!
And why is that? Because Asians have invaded Pixar! Yours truly saw Disney’s first 3D animation on the weekend and it didn’t take its crystal clear and super realistic imaging for me to notice the distinctive facial features of our main character Russell. Sure enough when I came home and googled him, reports stated that [...]
Kpop Idols Drowning Their Sorrows in Milk??
Super Junior‘s usually overly hyper and happy leader, LeeTeuk (real name Park Jungsoo), recently posted a few entries on his CyWorld minihompy that have netizens abuzz and ELFs in a CODE RED state of emergency. The ever approaching ahjussi-aged leader of the world’s largest boy band, who even earlier this year had a bout of [...]
2PM’s Junsu left his love in Thailand?
Or so his alleged crush assumes. Thai singer, Panyarisa “Waii” Thienprasit announced on national TV her not-so-secret liaison with 2PM‘s lead vocalist Junsu. While the group was in Thailand promoting “Again & Again”, the two spent an inconspicuous amount of time together, where Junsu allegedly abandoned his mates and took a cab to her residence. [...]
Brown Eyed Girls Get Spicy….Well PG-13 in new MV
Tight Tantalizing Threads, Sultry Swaying, Lesbian Lip Locking, and Heated Heterosexual Hookups…..Check Ah , my alliteration would make my English teacher proud. It seems that Brown Eyed Girls are determined to grab hold of the Kpop charts with both hands with the new promotional video for their comeback single “Abracadabra“. New pics of member Ga-in getting [...]
2PM Ceci Magazine Decoded
Thanks to 2PM‘s Wonderful “Clocks” and/or “Hottest“, us non Korean speakers can gain some insight into the minds of everyone’s favorite Triple Crowners. MY BEST MY FAVORITES From Céci Magazine Wooyoung’s BEST MOMENT (When is the moment you feel most successful?) – When I’m acknowledged for being a good dancer in a dance battle.- BEST [...]
Big Bang on Music Japan
Big Bang continued their Japanese promotions by performing “Gara Gara Go” on NHK Music Japan. Big Bang are consistent performers and know how to keep their viewer’s attention. However I can not get into this song or these lyrics. I know it’s just idol pop music, but whenever I hear G-Dragon and T.O.P. start “rapping”, [...]
Move Over Ladies – the Boys Are Back in Town
Finally-and not a moment too soon either! I needed some “fresh” boys in my life after these last few weeks of girls’ groups mania. I will freely admit that I LOVED F.T Island-what with their emo ballad singing, instrument playing, fine jailbait selves (I’m talking to you Choi Min Hwan-you’re so cute I just want [...]
