Another episode of Strong Heart, another stirrup of controversy...
On the episode of SBS Strong Heart aired on the 15th, the comical Super Junior trio (Leeteuk, Shindong, and Eunhyuk) conducted a short segment of revealing look-alike pictures of the stars. During this special segment, Leeteuk unveiled a picture of a woman who shared amazingly common features with himself. He even made the same face expression to match the woman's to add the fun, and there were no doubts that these two faces were identical indeed. This scene was captioned, "Teuk's identical Japanese actress."
However, it seems like the captioning team forgot to add an important word before the 'actress' - AV, adult video. You guessed it. The girl in the picture was actually a Japanese porn star! What a Strong Heart to find such picture.
The netizens have commented in shock,
"I was so shocked while watching the episode."
"I wonder if Leeteuk knew the person in the picture was an AV star..."
"They look alike so much."
On the other hand, the other side of the netizens didn't stop to criticize the show for their lack of appropriateness.
"This is not appropriate for national television."
"Haven't you guys done any research?"
"It's easy to find out if the person is an AV star or not. Please watch out what you display to the audience."

Singer Rain gives a shocking confession about group MBLAQ groomed personally by himself as his “first and last producing.”
Rain had a fanmeeting ‘Rain on Christmas’ on 17th December in Seoul KangNamGoo with readers of HighCut magazine. He said, “Perhaps, these friends (MBLAQ) will be the first and last that I will produce. I just want to give hope to these kids. I have been through times when I want to dance but I have no money and can’t do so. Now I’m just giving my help to these kids.”
He continued, “The road that I’ll walk is still very far. As an actor, I still have many to improve on, and as a singer I still need to work harder to do better. I still have so far to go, and who am I teaching now? If MBLAQ does well, doesn’t mean that I can produced out other kids too?” and spoke with hope.
He ended, “First, I want to concentrate on these friends (MBLAQ), and then concentrate on myself” expressing the wish to mature as an entertainer. But he continued, “But then again, you would know. I may just change my mind some day.”

What about the female solo, Dahee or whatever her name is?

KBS 2TV ‘Invincible Youth’ G7 members have confessed that they are fans of 2PM and also revealed their ideal type of guy.
During the recent episode of Youth Invincible, the G7 members like So Nyeo Shi Dae Sunny, T-ara HyoMin, KARA Goo Hara etc went to the marketplace to get their Christmas tree and they accidentally stumbled upon 2PM socks which were on sales.
The girls then picked out their favourite 2PM socks and revealed their ideal guy. So Nyeo Shi Dae Sunny revealed TaecYeon as her ideal guy, she has whispered shyly into ShinYoung’s ear that TaecYeon is her ideal guy, making the other girls curious.
But Sunny got herself a strong rival. And she is KARA Goo Hara who also chose TaecYeon. With that Sunny was ‘angry’ and even ‘threatened’ Hara silently during that episode. In the end, Hara has to go with Nich Khun as her ideal type, which was a funny episode for the other members.
Meanwhile, HyoMin chose WooYoung and also expressed her wish for WooYoung to appear on Invincible Youth for once.

It was announced on the 17th that SBS has taken the decision to end their flagship program, Family Outing this coming January 2010.
The countdown has apparently begun as SBS has decided against renewing their contract with the production company that produces Family Outing. SBS are currently preparing for another program to take its place.
Family Outing has enjoyed high popularity ever since it's debut in June 2008. But it has recently been embroiled in lots of controversies involving scripted lines, fishy situations, etc plus recycled scenarios, resulting in a huge decline in ratings.
Yoo Jae Suk has also signaled his decision to leave when his contract is up in January 2010, which ultimately means that the program can't continue since he's the focal point.
A SBS staff expressed, "The end of Family Outing is more or less decided already. We are currently preparing a new real outdoor variety show which will include 6 - 7 MCs. Our target is for it to debut at the end of January 2010, with our first recording scheduled in mid-January. We have already signed on 2 idol group members, 2 - 3 actors/gagmen thus far. The MCs have yet to be decided."

Brown Eyed Girls revealed that they wish to groom girlgroup KARA during their recent interview.
Brown Eyed Girls had an interview with Monkey3 lately and during the interview they revealed, “We want to groom KARA. If we are the president of our company, we want to scout KARA. We especially like SeungYeon and GyuRi.”
The group also talked about being ‘adult-dol (adult+idol)’ for their fascinating and matured performances, “The strength to this is that the juniors will want to follow our footsteps. But the negative side to that is that as we age each year, our skin loses elasticity and wrinkles grow. But good thing is that the makeup technique these days are good.”
MBLAQ Mir shows some affection for After School UEE.

Still missing a lot more though.

According to Mnet.com, “All this while, she has been doing various activities like CF filming that she cannot focus on her album works as much. This year-end she will not be appearing on any shows, other than ‘Family Outing’. And she will be working on her new album.”
Hyori previously released her 3rd album ‘It’s Hyorish‘ in July 2008, and her 4th album was set to release October this year but it was pushed back till next year.
A company representative has said, “Because Hyori puts in effort to make every song, the album was late in delivery. Currently, the album is about 80% completed. But the remaining 20%, which is the most important part like title songs and others, will need more attention.”
The new album is set to drop either late Janauary or early February next year.
The representative said, “When we have decided with the title song, we need to prepare the costumes, choreography and concept, there is still much work to cover. And such will need around 1 month, so if fast enough, we will see Hyori’s album released at the end of January.”
Showcasing a different concept and choreography for every album release, much anticipation is in for Lee Hyori’s longawaited new album.
