quick news on SS501 today

I'm sure you've read from other sites about the rumored boycott of DSP on MAMA on November 21. Anyway, DSP cleared the report and said that they're not jumping to the bandwagon of management company and entertainers boycotting the event. To quote DSP "SS501 released their album very late so they are not nominated and it makes sense. We did not say that they are boycotting." And about Kara's appearance, DSP said, "We haven't decided if Kara will attend yet, but we are currently in discussions over it." [credit AllKPop]

Good because I don't see the point of boycotting MAMA just because they're not nominated.

About the movie that Hyun Joong is rumored to do. Well, there's no confirmation yet coming from DSP but it seems that the rumor is alreacy a topic of discussion amongst fans. It's a mixed reaction. Well, for me I'm okay whether the rumor is true or not. But as some of you would know, I support 100% the solo activities of the members be it acting, djing, mcing, composing etc. My reason? They will not be idols forever so it's only right that DSP is introducing them to other fields. And I think that the members welcome this idea. But again, as I've written earlier, I hope that the solo activities will start when comeback, Persona concerts and 2nd Korean album is done.

Alright, not sure if some already know but another topic of discussion today amongst TS especially in Korea is the rumored non guesting of SS501 in Music Bank on Friday. Yes, there's a rumor and DSP hasn't said anything about his yet. So fans in Korea are already assuming and kinda disappointed. Do you know that there's a big chance of them winning in this week? Though it is possible to win without them appearing, but don't you think that the victory will be wonderful if SS501 will attend?

Btw, amongst the members of SS501 I think that Leader is the busiest today. It was said that he is recording a variety show [Dream Team] in today's very cold weather in Seoul. Actually, fans thought that he is recording this variety show in order for SS501 to be able to appear in Mubank [to clear their sked on Friday]. But unfortunately it was not the reason. Oh well, let's wait and see. DSP might just have a change of heart and let SS501 appear on MuBank on Friday.

P.S. I think it's no longer a rumor, it's confirmed that SS501 will not be in MuBank. KBS already announced. When asked KBS why, they said DSP didn't ask. While on the other side, when DSP was asked, DSP said KBS didn't ask. TS wants to know the real reason why. They're disappointed.

P.P.S. Do you know that SS501 recorded last Monday their appearance on Star King for 10 hours?

Thanks to Violet for the additional info. ^_^

Dream Team with Leader will broadcast on November 15 at 10.40pm KST Time @ KBS.

Its like BOF all over again..
Starting with a rumor and turns out to be true..
I just hope DSP do consult with HJ first before accept any offer (the movie), bcause as much as I like what BOF do to their popularity I don't want to hear any accident or passing out again from leader!

Hi Liezle thanks for the news! Really disappointed that the boys won't be attending MB this Fri cos I think they will have a better chance of winning if they attend :S I wonder if there is any problems between DSP and KBS? I don't want there to be another boycott issue.. that's sooo lame!

If they do miss MuBank this Friday, well ..I think lets just give the boys and DSP a break. You can see the boys are tired too. They have really performed alot throughout these 2 weeks since they are back from Taipei Persona, and their schedules are endless. They will also be going up for Shanghai Persona next weekend too. They deserve some rest in between schedules and lets hope if at all they are really confirmed on not attending, DSP is still in the best interest of the boys and they get a short well deserved rest for awhile in between.
