Hyundon and Taeyeon are not homeless anymore, WGM is still lacklustre without my lettuce couple

[-ochre.livejournal.com]

If you have been following MBC We Got Married Season 3, among the 4 couples, only Jung Hyung Don and Tae Yeon does not have a home of their own. Just a rundown, JunJin lives in Si Young's home, Kangin - Lee Yoon Ji rents a cheap apartment while Shin Sung Rok lives in Shin Young's house. But for Hyung Don - Tae Yeon, things are about to change for them.

According to the producers of We Got Married, "Tae Yeon and Hyung Don wanted to become neighbours with Shin Sung Rok - Kim Shin Young. This was especially after they (Tae Yeon and Hyung Don) had visited their home after the game events and were very satisified with the general outlook. Tae Yeon and Hyung Don thus expressed their wish to find a home around the area and thus they moved into their new home above theirs. Hyung Don had conceded a lot of ground with regards to the design of their new home to Tae Yeon and the whole concept will be unveiled on 29th March (the 22nd March episode will be about Hyung Don flying to Thailand as the "manager" of Girls' Generation).

But ahead of the unveiling on 29th March, pictures of their new home have been uploaded with many commenting on how interesting it looked and the overall pinkish color concept being adopted for the whole home. The following are pictures of their newly-wed home.

Davichi envious of SNSD

[-ochre.livejournal.com]

Korean girl pop duo Davichi, who first rose to fame with popular hit songs such as “I Love You Even Though I Hate You”, “Sad Promise” and “Love and War”, has recently released their mini album after almost a year. The mini album titled “Davichi in Wonderland” includes songs such as “8282″ and “I Made an Accident”, and just like their song names, it seems almost accidental that the mini album has been gaining widespread popularity in 2009.

Davichi, who officially debuted in 2008 with the release of their first album “Amaranth”, has garnered lots of attention as an example of a successful female group with their striking appearances and powerful vocals. They then attracted the attention of many people as rising stars when they won various Best Newcomer awards last year.

Now let us enter into the hearts of this music loving duo to hear their stories.

( INTERVIEW )

I think the both of them are adorable.

BOF Follower...Except Maybe Not

First teaser for Story of a Man

KBS’s Story of a Man [남자이야기] is revving up promo for its premiere (to follow Boys Before Flowers), starting with these character posters and its first teaser video.

Despite the hype, my initial impression is that the Song Ji-nah-penned corporate-crime-thriller series probably won’t be a match for her previous masterworks Sandglass or Eyes of Dawn, but her involvement is still drawing buzz. (Those two set the bar really high, and are among the highest-rated Korean dramas of all time, in addition to drawing overwhelming critical praise.)

Honestly, I doubt this will be as big hit as BOF, simply because angsty romantic comedy is much funnier and relaxing to watch after school or work than corporate crime-thriller (or action romance as the series is decribed in dramawiki).

Police Find 'Brothel' at Jang Ja-yeon Management Firm

[loverboy.livejournal.com]

Bundang police on Sunday raided the management company of the actress Jang Ja-yeon, who committed suicide two weeks ago after alleging the firm pimped her to several influential figures and threatened violence if she refused to have sex with them. Police said they raided a building the company used until December 2008 and confiscated 201 items such as computers and contracts with entertainers.

The fugitive head of the firm, identified as Kim, bought the building in Samseong-dong, southern Seoul, in August 2005, and used it as his office until October 2008. It had two stories at the time of purchase, but Kim added a floor and kitted it out as what looks like a brothel. The ground floor was used as a wine bar, the middle floor as office, and the top floor has a bedroom, shower and karaoke facilities, the police said.

Police suspect it was there that Jang was forced to serve drinks, act as an escort and have sex with media executives, CEOs, producers and politicians who would help boost her career.

Investigators will look at CCTV recordings around the building to identify people who frequented it. They are also looking into the history of Jang's phone calls and deleted text messages to trace her steps leading up to her suicide.

Davichi's recent hit song 8282 a copy?

[shanny-w.livejournal.com]

Netizens in Korea have drawn attention to the fact that Davichi's recent hit song 8282 might have been a copy of British singer Mika's Happy Ending. And this was not the first time that Davichi has been accused of copying. Their previous hit song Love and War (feat.Haha) in 2008 was deemed to have been a hybrid copy of Oh Song's Oh Summer, Please and Sung Yu Bin's Nuneul Kamado (Close Your Eyes) as their melodies sounded similar.

With regards to the accusations, a Mnet Media representative expressed, "The copying allegations are untrue." Their manager also said, "They claimed that the song is copied just because there's a little bit of resemblance, that is simply unacceptable."

Super Junior have also been accused of stealing with their chorus of Sorry Sorry sounding similar to that of Britney Spears Womanizer. Another track from their same album Why I like you was also accused of sounding similar to America's R&B singer Ne-Yo's Closer.

The suju/womanizer thing is so absolutely stupid.

Jung Hyung Don fangirls over DBSK [eng subs]

[shanny-w.livejournal.com]

Idol group Dong Bang Shin Ki made a special appearance on the episode of MBC We Got Married aired on 22nd March.

During this episode, Jung Hyung Don had escorted made-believe wife TaeYeon together to Thailand Bangkok.

TaeYeon had participated in the ‘SM Town Live Tour’ together with the rest of the So Nyeo Shi Dae members on 7th February in Thailand. And because the other SM Town singers like Dong Bang Shin Ki, SHINee, Super Junior and Cheon Sang Ji Hee had also participated in the concert, Hyung Don had taken the liberty to meet the Dong Bang Shin Ki members and talked to them.

Etude House’s new face Lee Min-ho

[finchburg.livejournal.com]

Lee Min-ho takes on yet another endorsement deal to join the others on his ever-growing list: brand model for cosmetics line Etude House. (He adds this to all the jeans, apparel, food, beverage, and cell phone advertisement deals he’s racked up since the start of Boys Before Flowers a mere two months ago.)

As a brand targeting the youth market, Etude House formerly featured young stars like Jang Geun-seok (Beethoven Virus) and Go Ara (Who Are You); here in these newly shot ads, Lee Min-ho promotes the line alongside 20-year-old actress Park Shin-hye (Radish Kimchee — who, by the way, was a strong contender for the role of Jan-di before it went to eventual pick Gu Hye-sun).
