This year's Dream Concert lineup will have 3 popular idol boy groups with a member missing from each group. Kangin will not be taking part in Dream Concert together with Super Junior due to him being involved in an assault incident that happened in September. SM released a press statement then and Kangin apologised for his actions.
Note: She only translated the SJ-related part of the article, dunno about the rest.

2PM fans have declared total boycott to upcoming Dream Concert, if 2PM is performing without leader Park JaeBum.
2PM fans will be posting up post-its on JYP office building on 10th October during the time when Dream Concert is going on.
Fans have declared that “Without JaeBum, we cannot accept 2PM‘ regarding 2PM’s future activities when JaeBum left the group. They have stick to this belief even when Park Jin Young announced that 2PM will promote as 6 members without JaeBum.

Fans will be “attacking” by posting up post-its at JYP building in Seoul ChungDamDong from 4pm to 8.30pm when Dream Concert is going on on 10th October. For these fans, they only wish for JaeBum to return to the group quickly.

Web drama "SETI" is a hit
2009-10-09 02:40 pmdjclazzi.livejournal.com
Remember that “web toon drama” called SETI (Search for Extra Terrestrial Intelligence)? The fantasy series by a manhwa writer released its first two episodes online this week, and the interest has been very high.
The series is comprised of short segments a little over a minute long that feature Seo Hyo-rim (Job Well Done) and SS501 member Kim Kyu-jong. SETI mixes live action with a “manhwa world,” which is achieved by mixing live photography with enhanced illustrations in the background. In the first three days of its release, the first installment drew in more than 600,000 views, with word of mouth reportedly traveling fast.
Each “episode” is really more like a skit — think of a long commercial more than traditional episode — and takes a cute tone. The two characters are a young couple who are part of a club that searches the skies for signs of alien life.
Seo Hyo-rim said of the successful launch, “I had no idea there would be so many people interested in this. I’ll try my best to work even harder and not disappoint.”

crystalheng.livejournal.comBig Bang DaeSung will be performing on stage on Dream Concert coming 10th October. This will be his first time going on the stage to perform 60 days after his car accident in August.
Big Bang will be performing in full team as 5 members on the day of Dream Concert.
A YG representative said on 9th October “DaeSung will be performing for Dream Concert. Even though until yesterday it was said that it is hard for him to perform on stage given he is still recuperating, DaeSung himself and fans will want to see Big Bang perform as 5 members again.”
“DaeSung can dance on stage, but his health is not in its perfect condition now. But he wishes to perform on such a big event.”
But with his health still not at its prime yet, it is not confirmed yet how many songs Daesung will perform. A staff said, “We are still deciding on what performance will DaeSung join. Big Bang will be singing about 2 songs, and we have prepared one joint performance with 2NE1.”

As much as I'm excited to see the full Big Bang performing again, I'd rather Daesung rest further. And please let the joint performance with 2NE1 be a proper one instead of the one in Idol Big Show!

Actress/MC Lee Yoonji has said something to cheer Super Junior Kangin up after his assault incident.
Lee Yoonji said on an interview on October 8th that "I dont know the detail of the story behind, also I'm not in Kangin's position at that time so I cant say anything about this incident" and "I hope that this incident can be settled as soon as possible and I believe that Kangin himself can overcome quickly"
She also said "Kangin is like a trustworthy friend to me. He's friendly, affable, he has many good side" thus talking about Kangin's good point.
Lee Yoonji and Kangin had been a make-believe couple in MBC show "We got married" from last year until early this year. Lee Yoonji said about her make-believe husband Kangin "Although (Kangin) is a trustworthy and good friend but he calculated so much when it comes to man's duty/work (she means Kangin is quite lazy when doing man's work in the house) . The girl who will become his real wife in the future should consider this side" and laughed.

small article on Korea and lesbians
2009-10-09 06:46 pmloverboy.livejournal.com
“Are you a femme? Would you like to about bars with lots of butches? A lot of singles go to them, you know.”
The bartender spoke in unfamiliar terminology, and over on one wall it says “Only For Ladies”. Here there are plenty of the “queers” (homosexuals, bisexuals, and transgender patients) that lesbians look for. The Monthly Chosun came here and listened to their stories.
The Monthly Chosun met with two of them. Both went through a lot of pain in the process of coming out. When she was in elementary school, Ms. A came out to her older sister and younger twin sisters, but her older sister seemed to react badly. Ms. B came out to her mother two years ago, once could not leave the house, and in the end lied by saying she was wrong in thinking she was gay. Ms. B said, “even now whenever I talk to a girl on the phone my parents ask who it is, and I get nervous.”
Among lesbians there are various words used to show their personal character. Those who take the masculine and assertive role are called dykes or butches, and those who take the opposite role are called femmes. Most times, the say, the masculine one has to support her love. Ms. A said, “butches have the toughest time among homosexuals, because they have to work hard to be economically able to take care of the women they physically love as women.”
They said, “the hardest thing is that we can’t openly show our love because of what other people will do.” When men talk to them and ask them their phone number, they can’t clutch their lovers and say “she’s my girlfriend”. Ms. A said, “one time this guy asked me for my number, so I said a person near me was my lover, but he said I was lying and I should kiss him while the guy watched.”
According to the group Solidarity for LGBT Human Rights of Korea (동성애자인권연대), there about 100,000 Korean homosexuals. Choi Hyeon-suk, a candidate with the New Progressive Party, said, “because there are many sexual minorities who do not live openly it is difficult to get exact numbers.” It is impossible to know precisely how many more people of differing sexual orientations there are.
But they denied any difference between heterosexuals and homosexuals. Ms. A said, “we are people in love. We love each other the same way straight people love each other. We may not have opposite bodies. But other than that, our hearts are exactly the same.”

Interesting how they expect the more dominate woman in the relationship to pretty much be the man. Guess Koreans are still very much influenced by a heteronormative lifestyle, even if they're not straight.

BEG's Narsha: "My real age is 29"

Narsha from the popular group Brown Eyed Girls confessed her real age.
On the filming of SBS 'Strong Heart', Narsha said "To be honest, I'm really 29 years old." Until now, her age was known as 27 years. She claimed that she wanted to comfortably tell her real age after unwillingly letting people know about her fake age. With Narsha's laid-back and honest personality, it was said that she seemed much more at ease after revealing the truth.
Narsha's courageous confession will air on the 13th through 'Strong Heart'.

P.S. On Naver it says she was born 1983 December 28. So if she was born in '81, she's only 28 in Korean years (27 anywhere else)

The new song is just so "Wheesung". I can hear his singing style and music in this song just like previous album "Eternal Essence of Music" which I really love. And yay for "saranghae" hand gesture in this performance, reminds me of his L.O.V.E hand gesture in "Insomnia"
