Dongwoo from the idol group, Infinite, became a ‘manner-dol’.
On September 1st, a video with the title of “Dongwoo picking up the trash after recordings were finished” came up on an online community. This video was a fancam from MBC’s ‘3rd Idol Star Track and Field Competition’, which took place at the Jamshil Stadium on August 27th.
In the video, you can see Infinite’s member, Dongwoo, picking up the trash thrown away on the grass. Netizens didn’t hold back on the compliments on him being a ‘manner-dol’ when Dongwoo started holding the trash in his clothes because there wasn’t a bag to throw the trash away in.
Netizens showed reactions like, “Even though it’s something that should go without saying, I end up complimenting him. This is because there’s no one that actually does something that goes without saying, like this.”, “Succeed Infinite”, “He’s kind. I’m not even a fan but I feel proud.”
Meanwhile, Infinite is in the middle of garnering interest with their new album’s title song, ‘Be Mine’.

I love Bada, idk about her bacon ensemble though.

I’m back from the meeting. From the company, CEO Jung Wook and two staff members were present, and like I told you before, as the fandom representative, Wonderful’s on/offline board member, founder of Wonderholic, and founder of Wonder Girls World, a total of 4 people, were present. It went on from 4pm for 2 hours, and our conversations were based on the written inquiries, previously sent by us to JYP. However, as many situations relating to Wonder Girls has changed, it was concluded that it’d be better to not use the original questions as is, and the content of questions were appropriately changed after discussions with the fandom representatives. Also, as we were conversing casually in a comfortable environment, it became difficult organizing the information according to the inquiries. And so, this was organized without any relation to the question list order, and has been divided into subjects.

On August 19th, American rapper Ludacris arrived in Korea for the first time to promote his new high definition line of headphones, “Soul By Ludacris“. Recently, the world-renown rapper expressed his thoughts about the rising popularity of K-Pop and in particular, praised the influence of YG Entertainment.
Ludacris stated, “The reason for K-Pop’s rising global popularity may be because of the singers’ outgoing appearances and performances, but what’s more important is the music they produce. In that regard, I feel YG’s hip hop music is the best. YG’s crossover hip hop genre has more than enough competitive edge for the worldwide market. If the opportunity comes, I’d definitely like to exchange music with them.”
Ever since his debut in 1999 with first album, “Incognegro“, Ludacris has sold over 17,000,000 albums in the U.S. alone and 24,000,000 albums worldwide. Ludacris is currently working with mega teen hit Justin Bieber as well as other famous musicians to produce numerous #1’s in both hip hop and pop music.
