trouble...

...not with SS501. Whew?! Sorry for making you guys nervous a bit. ^_^

I'm actually debating whether to make a post about this or not but since I'm also a fan of this group I might as well.

Tonight, rumor about SM Entertainment and 3 members of DBSK namely, Jaejoong, Junsu and Yoochun who requested for a deposition requesting SM Entertainment to release them from their contract of 13 years is all over the new. This news is now the top search in any Korean portals. The lawyer of the 3 members made several statement today and from what I read the situation is not good.

- seems like a negotiation has been going on between SM and the 3 members for 2 months to remove the 'non-exclusivity clause' in their contract but they weren't able to settle any agreement.

- main reason of the 3 members for wanting to leave is the slave contract [examples of slave contract, an artiste has to first seek approval from their company before being able to go overseas (iHQ). An artiste must notify their company their present location at anytime of asking (Olive9, Fantom). An artiste lifestyle including companionship, schooling, citizenship, military enlistment, making friends, economic activities, socializing events, transportation will have to be consulted with the company (JYP Entertainment) in advance which interferes with a person’s personal life.]

- there was also a mention of the split in the earning with SM getting the a HUGE chunk of the pie [geez, 8:2!!! unbelievable! with the 2 to be divided to the 5 members]

Geez, it seems that it's happening again. There was H.O.T. before then Shinwha.

Btw, I also read something about cosmetic [CreaBeau a Chinese product] thing but this is not clear to me yet.

With this news fans are worried about DBSK breaking up. =( It was said that later [probably this weekend] Jaejoong, Junsu and Yoochun will be releasing their statement.

Aahh, i'm pretty sure this event is very stressful to the fans. And I remember SS501 whose contract is expiring next year.

Could Jae Joong, Micky and Hyun Joong seeing each other often something to do with the problem of JJ? I cannot help but think.

JunSu, Yoochun and Jae Joong

p.s. Late last year SM Ent together wit some other ent companies were on the news regarding slave contract. Early this year, LSM [president of SM] was in the news again regarding the company getting out of the red line. Now comes this news. I believe that DBSK is SM's top earner.

p.p.s. The two other members ChangMin and YunHo were just in the news this week. The news about them is that both will be doing drama soon. YunHo's drama will broadcast in September and he will be with Ko Ara. And in the rumor mill, ChangMin and YunHo are said to be staying with DBSK if things really get ugly.

But you know what? For so long the contract is binding all members must comply with it.

Breaking News!


SM Ent statement after they had a board meeting tonight. "TVXQ is a band that represents Asia, TVXQ absolutely must continue actitivies." In addition, "The cosmetics company issue, will be resolved." [AllKPop]

See, the contract is still binding, but they're not out of the woods yet. This will surely have some effect on SM's stocks.

WGM in Japan ^_^

I've read and heard about this and I'm happy to see that this news in now in yonhap and translated for us by from korean to chinese by julieanne and chinese to english by cagalikira on Quiante501. Much much thanks!

I'm pretty sure with SS501 members exposure in Japan, there's no way to stop their up hill climb.

cut from 2008 summer festival fanmeet

It's my first time to see this video. Thanks to hoonfami for sharing this video with sub titles on YT.

I like all the hair style here and they're so cute. Love how Kyu Jong acted the hula dance... sexy. Again, poor Maknae is always the target of 'fun' by the members. Hee, did you see how he was perspiring after? Oh and it's so funny how it seems that the scoreboard is also picking on Maknae when Leader's photo was shown instead of him. ^^ Jung Min, he's such a cute bully and i love that smirk that he did before the start of the game. Leader, he's so nice to give credit the the boys when he got the highest point. But how was it a unicorn [Kyu Jong's answer]? Ahh, Leaders is not confident with Maknae that he said he's poor [in answering]. Lol, but when it was Jung Min's turn he's bribing him money to answer quickly. ^_^ I love it when Young Saeng is in action but he made several passes. The 'andeyo' and cat sound are cutey. And may I add that he's so cute when it is his chance to answer.

[Engsub] SS501 - Playing Game - Summer Festival Fanmeeting 2008 cut




p.s. I'm sure you've heard and read about the Beijing fan meeting on the 29th of August. Not much details yet but it's already in the website of the organizer [the same organizer that brought SS501 in HK and Taiwan].

p.p.s. Baby's birthday is on the 3rd of August, I wonder what the members prepared for him on the 2nd night of their concert?

impressive! can't wait so see the new moves ^^

sWhoa! I'm anticipating to see the new dance moves. I actually remember reading that when SS501 went to the US earlier [the sub-group and the whole group for the HB] they had meetings with choreographers and some musicians to help them with their new album. So, finally we'll get to see some of it this coming weekend. ^_^

Much thanks again to xiaochu for sharing this wonderful news on Quiante501. We won't be hearing much from xiaochu in the coming weeks as she's going to Seoul tonight. Let's all wish her and the other ladies she'll be with a pleasant trip. ^^

7/30 [news] SS501, works with Justin Timberlake’s Dancer

Credits : happy@osen.co.kr + SS601.com + (English Translation) xiaochu @ Quainte501.com

REPOST WITH FULL CREDITS ONLY


SS501 will hold their ‘ASIA TOUR in SEOUL, PERSONA’ for 2 days on 1~2 August at Seoul Olympic Park Gymnasium Stadium, and in order to show an even better image, they are practicing hard with AJ, who is the choreographer for Justin Timberlake and Usher.

AJ is currently in Korea to guide on SS501’s choreographs and has been with them for the rehearsals and practices, giving them guidance and advices. AJ is the best student of Fatima Robinson who is known to be Michael Jackson’s dancer teacher (?), he is currently in charge of choreography for Usher and Justin Timberlake, etc, and by foreign news media gave him high praises by naming him ‘Magic Feet’ when one sees his dances. Dancers praises him “I would say he is the best in the world”.

AJ, who arrived in Korea on 24th, said “I’ve watched many videos of SS501 before I came to Korea to meet them for the first time. SS501’s abilities and potentials are worth anticipating for, and I hope I can be assistance to them.”

SS501 will release for their very first time, 5 songs from their official 2nd album set to be released in mid-August. The new songs to be revealed have been selected, including their title song and follow-up song. The dance for their title song is wholly choreographed by AJ himself.

p.s.i've been going around other sites but it looks like there's nothing much about SS501 except news about their upcoming concert which we already know. Hopefully by tomorrow and Saturday before the concert we'll get to hear more interesting news and see some photos.

Up next on Mnet Scandal is…

I’ve blogged about Mnet Scandal before HERE and HERE. I really really enjoyed watching 2PM's Nick Khun and Taecyeon and FT Island’s Lee Hong Ki on that show despite some fangirls cursing the show online because they’re heartbroken or ‘jealous’. ^_^

Guess who’s the next idol going the break the heart of many fangirls.

Though he’s my least favorite amongst F4 and since he’s a friend of Kim Hyun Joong, I somehow got interested in him.

T-Max's Kim Joon is next on Mnet Scandal. His date with a non showbiz girl will start next week.

When photos of him and his make believe girlfriend came out, netizens are at it again… i.e., cursing and wishing the Mnet Scandal will banish in the air. ^_^

You may click the photo to enlarge.


Thanks to monmoon for the photos posted on Korean celebs thread @ soompi.
Btw, for those who are not aware of how Mnet Scandal goes, it's a reality date show where in an idol is coupled with a non-showbiz girl and goes on a date for week.

2Pm, FT Island, 2AM members have participated in this show and like what I mentioned fangirls went crazy. I wonder how fans will react if they see any members of SS501, DBSK and SuJu get intimate with a non-showbiz girl. ^^

five plus three and more?!

Whoa! It sure is a HUGE HUGE treat for everyone coming to watch the concert. As if 5 is not enough 3 more cuties are added. And I think there’ll be more. ^^

Xiaochu, Ruby, SG TripleS who are watching you’re sooooo lucky!

If only I can fly to Seoul tomorrow, I’ll do so. ^_^

Btw, I almost forgot due to excitement to say thank you once again to xiaochu for the translation and sharing on Quiante501.

07/28 [news] F4 gathering in one place, friendship as strong as ever

REPOST WITH FULL CREDITS ONLY

F4 gathering, friendship is as strong as ever

Lee Minho, Kim Bum and Kim Joon, will go to concert venue to congratulate SS501 Asia Tour .

F4 will gather in one place.

F4 members Lee MinHo, Kim Bum & Kim Joon, will attend ‘SS501 1st ASIA TOUR PERSONA IN SEOUL’ to be held on 1~2 Aug at Seoul Bangee-dong Olympic Park Gymnasium Stadium. These guys acted with SS501 member Kim HyunJoong in KBS 2TV drama ‘Boys Over Flowers’ as ‘F4’, forming bonds with each other and thus would be going for his concert.

SS501’s company DSP Entertainment representative said “After the drama ended, F4’s friendship is still as strong as ever. Lee MinHo, KimJoon, etc, readily agreed to attend the concert to congratulate SS501’s first Asia Tour. Kim Bum who is currently busy with drama ‘Dream’, especially tuned his schedules so that he will be able to attend.”

F4 members voluntarily attended each others’ events and their ‘exchange of work’ friendship has been extending. This gathering is 4 months after Kim Bum’s birthday party cum fan meeting last April. At Lee MinHo’s fan meeting in June, Kim Bum couldn’t attend due to drama filming.

SS501 are practicing hard in order to show a brilliant performance for their first concert of the 1st Asia Tour. They are currently having their pre-concert rehearsal at Jangchung-dong Jangchung Gymnasium Hall where a similar stage of the actual stage has been set up. They will release 5 songs from their upcoming 2nd album, to be released in mid-Aug, during this Seoul concert. With the start of their Asia Tour in Seoul, they will continue with Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Japan, HongKong, Taiwan, etc.

p.s. i added the 'more' in the title since i'm certain there'll be tons of surprises this weekend. ^_^

drama dilemma [edited links]

While waiting for more news about SS501, I thought of blogging a bit about the above topic. ^^

Sigh... there are so many dramas to watch with so little time. Actually, i think that this should be the real reason, I've been spending so much time with SS501 that I'm neglecting watching dramas. ^_^ ha...ha...

Anyway, you guys might think that I have all the time in the world to spend in front of my computer. Nah I don’t. It just so happen that I only sleep an average of 3 to 4 hours a day. I’m not sure if it’s sickness or what, but that’s the only time I spend everyday for sleeping.

Practically I’m awake for 20 hours and this 20 hours is not even enough for me to do all the things I want to do, much more even when I’m at home in front of my computer. There are some few dramas that I wanted to watch but like I said haven’t had the time. Likewise, I haven’t been helping much WithS2 since becoming one of the editors. But I think things will change a bit this weekend because I decided to help again in the editing and watch some K and J-dramas.

This weekend while I’ll be waiting for news about SS501 ^^ I’ll be watching ‘Dream’ since I’ve signed up in the editors' pool of this drama. The drama actually started this week but wasn’t able to watch online. I’m kinda excited about this drama [though I read of the low rating] since Kim Bum and Joo Jin Moo are there. But then, there are other dramas that I’m anticipating in watching and these are ‘Orthros no Inu’ which stars Takizawa Hideaki and Ryo Nishikido and ‘Buzzer Beat’ that stars Yamapi. Both J-drama are currently airing in Japan though Yamapi’s drama was aired earlier [about 2 weeks ago].

Anyway, for those who are curious about the ‘Orthros No Inu’, here’s an article that was emailed to me by my friend [sorry not sure who the source/s are but thanks for translation].

Takizawa, Nishikido battle in new drama




Hideaki Takizawa (27) has picked up his first starring role in a serial drama since 2005. He will share the screen with Ryo Nishikido.

The thrilling human drama has Takizawa playing the role of a mysterious and ambitious man with a wicked heart, who possesses the power to heal pain and illness with the touch of his hand. Nishikido, on the other hand, plays a high school teacher with a gentle heart, but who has the ability to kill with his touch. The two happen to meet, resulting in a battle of good and evil.

Takizawa's last starring role in a series was in the 2005 NHK taiga drama "Yoshitsune." Before that, he played the lead in Fuji TV's "Boku Dake no Madonna."

TBS will broadcast "Orthros no Inu" on Friday nights at 10:00pm, starting in July.

Here are some YT clips regarding ‘Orthro No Inu’ and ‘Buzzer Beat’

Buzzer Beat opening

p.s. there is 'Style' too which will be airing soon. Though I don't like Ryu Shiwon, I'll be probably watching this because of Lee Ji Ah.

p.p.s. i like Takki [Tackey] since i saw him in 2003 in Strawberry on the Shortcake
in 2003 [3]. he's cute then and until now. and randomly i found this clip and this one too on YT by chance and just thought of sharing with you. Honestly, I haven't checked on him for sooooo long. I suddenly have the urge to put on the my cds of him and Tsubasa performing that was given by a friend. ^^

Male group SS501 plans to release 5 songs from their official 2nd album, which will be released in August, during their Asia Tour Seoul concert.

SS501’s company revealed “In the 2 days from 1st to 2nd August, they will release 5 songs from their official 2nd album during their Asia Tour Seoul Concert to be held at Seoul Olympic Park Gymnasium Stadium. These songs include their title song and the follow-up song.”

In addition, he added “SS501 is currently having their pre-concert rehearsal at Jangchung Gymnasium hall where we’ve set up the same stage layout as the actual concert. In order for the new songs not to be leaked out prior to the concert, the rehearsal was done with thorough security.”

This concert would be SS501’s first Asia Tour since their debut. They hope to have a performance where they can be close to their fans, so in response to SS501 members’ suggestion, a protruded stage was formed allowing audience to be able to see the members from a close distance wherever they are seated at.

Meanwhile, fans from Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Japan, HongKong, Taiwan, etc, will be visiting Korea in order to attend to first concert of SS501’s Asia Tour.

MVIO F/W Print Ad

The new MVIO Fall and Winter print ads are finally out [what we've seen before were photos from the photoshoot]. I found this set of photos on khj0606.com. There are other photos posted but I won't be shoving them here anymore since they're from the photoshoot and some of which we've seen earlier.

Simple smart casual that can breeze
through daily urban grind with light
and playful pieces. [Clark Kent look]

For instant cold breeze,
Hyun Joong can't go wrong with the black jacket.

Hyun Joong new preppy look. ^^
It's not just about jeans and sneakers anymore.

The Sherlock Holmes inspired look.
A modern vibe to usual F/W season.

Shopping will catch instant attention
with this individualist's trend.


Mix and match to fab styles.

Steal-worthy look of a young executive.

The photo below is from the photoshoot. I'm including it here because Hyun Joong has a skateboard. ^_^

KHJ not a pretty boy nor meticulous

I was just trying to decipher this news when I read it on khj0606 then I came across xiaochu’s translation on Quiante501. As always, much thanks for the translation, xiaochu.

Oh yeah, HJL is not a pretty boy. I agree… because he is handsome and manly [as what the other members of SS501 keep on saying on 'Starry Night'] ^_^. He said that he’s not meticulous nor he’s not bad. I think he’s saying the truth and just being straight forward about it so as not to let others expect too much from him. I believe that Kim Hyun Joong is the kind of guy who is more of a doer than a sweet talker.

Btw, I wonder when he was interviewed. He's hair style in the photoshoot is almost the same as his hair style when he guested in 'Starry Night' last Friday.

07/27 [news] Kim HyunJoong “Kim Bum is the Best Pretty Boy in F4” Why?

REPOST WITH FULL CREDITS ONLY

‘Pretty Boy’ Kim HyunJoong said “Kim Bum is the best pretty boy in F4”.

In MBC ‘Good Day’ broadcasted on 27-Jul, Kim HyunJoong’s photo shoot was revealed.

When being asked who is the best pretty boy in F4, Kim HyunJoong replied “Kim Bum”. Kim HyunJoong explained “’Pretty boy’ refers to one who has feminine side more than masculine side.” Kim HyunJoong revealed “I can’t say that I am one.” He said wittily “I am a pretty boy when I put on make-up.”

Kim HyunJoong analyzed the factor for his popularity “InBoys Over Flowers’, Yoon JiHoo is a caring and meticulous person, so he captured many nuna’s (older sisters) heart.” Kim HyunJoong confessed “Actually, I am not really a meticulous person. I am not a bad guy. I won’t say it out even if I want to take care of another person.”

Meanwhile Kim HyunJoong revealed their future activities “We will get into activity through our Asia Tour which consists of 10 countries and also through variety programs. I will continue to be an actor for a while more too.”

clear but not big...

We've seen quite a few number of photos of SS501 when they guested in Starry Night last Friday but they're not clear, right? And we keep on looking for clearer photos to satisfy ourselves to save in our harddisk, right again?

Okay then, here are few photos that I found on khj0606. Yes they are clear though not big and that you cannot save each member's photo individually [unless you edit them yourself].^^ But hey these set of photos is better than earlier posted. ^^ Enjoy!

Here are the photos. Btw, for the 2nd set of photos, you may click it to enlarge.



p.s. I've been reading that the 2nd Korean album of SS501 will come out on the 3rd week of August and that in their concert [5 days to go to D-day!] SS501 will sing songs that are included in their new album. So you now know what to do... start watering your money tree. ^_^

mouth watering

The cake looks delicious since it's chocolate covered with icing and Hyun Joong seems to enjoy eating it with much gusto. Honestly, it make my mouth water.

But hey, has it crossed your mind which is yummier? Hyun Joong or the cake? Hmm... could you be envying the spoon and wants to be it? ^_^ Ha! Ha! Don't lie.

I've already seen this before, but since the links were posted again I just wanted to share them here. It's SS501 experiencing the hardship that a pregnant woman takes. It's a funny show yet the members learned a lot of things such as appreciating their mother more and understand how complicated the daily life of a pregnant woman is.

The show has two parts and each part was divided into two by Quiante501 subbing team. Here are the links for you to watch...

All of the them look soooooo handsome in the show. Maknae is so funny with is facial expressions and he's getting broader. Kyu Jong did a good job in doing the voice of harabojji and like what i mentioned earlier, I like his hair straight. Jung Min, though covered up, his chest is a distraction and I like his drawing. Hyun Joong is so handsome and sexy in black and I love Leaders's hair. Young Saeng is also looking handsome with his cute dimples showing. He seems to be in a very good mood last night. Oh yeah, i like his hair style though I think he got conscious a bit when the other members noticed the back. Did you noticed that both Hyun Joong and Young Saeng keep on coughing? I hope that it's nothing serious.

I hope that someone can upload them on YT and share the subs.

Here's a cute GIF of Kyu Jong from stayfreemymisery of SS501 thread @ soompi.

7.24.09 Yong Joon Sighting

Any news about Bae Yong Joon is big news for us. So whether it's a small news or the photo is just a silhouette it doesn't matter for so long it's fresh.

There's a Yong Joon sighting yesterday 7.24.09. Yong Joon was photographed by fans making a photoshoot for Arnaldo Bassini.

Here are 2 photos that i lifted from byjgallery as shared by style.

This one is small. It's an indoor shooting but the silhouette is definitely Yong Joon.


Btw, the lottery for the 2 big events in Tokyo Dome where in Yong Joon will be appearing happened yesterday. The 2 events I'm talking about is the September 29 for the 'WLS Anime Promo' and September 30 launching of 'Beauty of Korea' book. Fortunately not all Japanese baesisters [60,000 members] in the Japanese Official Board [JOB] won in the lottery. Anyway, to everyone who were able to win in the 2 days event, I'm so excited for all of you.
