EXCLUSIVE interview with victim’s sibling, “Daesung did, in fact, compensate for the whole accident…

[mizkrazykool.livejournal.com]

On the latest episode of KBS Entertainment Relay, controversies of idol group, Big Bang, was brought up again into the spotlight, disrupting their recent comeback preparations.

On a recently broadcasted episode of KBS Entertainment Relay on the 25th, a 15-minute segment titled ‘Big Bang, is there comeback a forgiven comeback?’ was reported. The main subject discussed throughout this segment was about the group’s comeback and whether or not their public comeback was still too early.

But a portion of this subject is far different from the existing truth. It also resulted in a massive group suspicion that all this was reported lopsidedly.

Entertainment Relay had recently met up with the mother of the deceased victim from the accident Daesung was involved. The mother stated in the interview with Entertainment Relay that, “He (Daesung) never even came near our home after he showed up to the funeral once” and that “We couldn’t even see his face at the funeral. And he definitely did not pay for the settlement costs.”

Shinhwa's Comeback Concept Will Be Simple Yet Luxurious

[carmendove.livejournal.com]

Shinhwa is back. The 6 stylish guys. As veterans of the K-pop industry now, in what manner will they present themselves to stir the fans’ hearts? Although we’re curious about their title track, we’re also curious about what kind of dazzling stage costumes and style they will strut around the stage in.

“Shinhwa in the past used to be dressed in idol-style stage costumes, and now everyone knows of Shinhwa. Now they are the godfathers of the K-pop scene. So their overall concept will be a combination of simplicity and luxury.” Stylist Park Ji-young, who is overseeing the styling for Shinhwa’s comeback, explains Shinhwa’s overall simple yet luxurious concept.

She adds, “Shinhwa doesn’t need to be dressed in flamboyant stage costumes like other idols. Because the group Shinhwa itself, the members themselves are glamorous, so they don’t have to adopt a concept of bling-bling stage costumes.”

Ms Park, together with G.I.L Homme designer Seo Eun Gil, will be personally designing the costumes for Shinhwa’s comeback. She said, “The stylist usually picks the fabric and directly starts on production but there are limitations to that so I’m working with desinger Seo Eun Gil. I made my request to him and he was happy to agree.”

She expressed, “We’ll be trying out different treatments on the fabric, such as (color) gradation or dyeing, to create a unique style for Shinhwa to show off.”

Shinhwa will be making their comeback this coming March, in conjunction with their 14th anniversary. The group is making their official comeback after 4 years due to the members having to serve military duty. Shinhwa, whose members have set up Shinhwa Company and are preparing to meet their fans, will be holding their comeback concert ‘The Return’ at the Olympic Park Gymnastics Arena on 24/25 March.

Oh well, at least this means they won't be wearing anything too crazy. Thank god!

Prepare To Freak Out SHCJ, We Now Have Details About Shinhwa's Album & Promotions

[carmendove.livejournal.com]

Shinhwa returns after 4 years

Shinhwa is returning in time for their 14th anniversary. With Lee Minwoo concluding his military service on 2 March, he will rejoin his fellow members at the official press conference, kicking off their comeback activities into full gear. Let’s take a look at their preparations for their comeback, which is drawing near.

Choi Byung Jin, CEO of Eric’s management company Top Class Entertainment and director of Shinhwa Company, told OhmyStar on 24 Feb in a phone conversation, “We’re working towards the target of releasing the 10th album on 20th March. The title track has also recently been decided on.”

CEO Choi added that Shinhwa completed their album jacket photoshoot last week. “The test shoot has been done, depending on how the photos turn out we may have another photo shoot.”

Shinhwa’s 10th album comes four years after their 9th album released in 2008. This album consists of 10-11 songs. Now about 70% of the production work for the album has been done. CEO Choi said, “We went through much deliberation in choosing the title track. We should be releasing the album on the 20th before holding the concert on 24/25 March.”

Shinhwa will not only appear on various music programs but will also appear on variety programs as part of their extensive promotional activities.

CEO Choi said, “Although Shinhwa released 2 albums after 2006, but because the members all belonged to different management agencies so there were no large-scale activities. They will be appearing on variety shows after 5 years. They will be making a fair amount of appearances on variety shows and will also be appearing on music programs for more than a month. The focus will be on ‘Shinhwa’s Comeback’.”

Meanwhile, Shinhwa will be holding their comeback press conference on 5 March at CGV Cheongdam in Seoul.

T-ara to release new album, open their official fanclub, and hold a large-scale concert this summer

[devilsatin.livejournal.com]

Girl group T-ara will finally hold an opening ceremony for their official fan club and have a large-scale concert this summer, 3 years after their debut.

T-ara debuted in 2009 with their single “Lies,” and continuously had a succession of hit songs in a span of 3 years, such as “Bo Peep Bo Peep,” “Why are You Being Like This,” “I Go Crazy Because of You,” “Roly-Poly, “Cry Cry,” “We Were in Love,” and “Lovey-Dovey.”

Kim Kwang Soo, the CEO of Core Contents Media, stated that “Around the beginning of this July, T-ara will have an opening ceremony for the official fan club they have been wishing for all this time, and they are planning to meet fans with a new album.” He continued, “Towards the end of July, they will have a large-scale concert to celebrate the 3rd anniversary of their debut.”

CEO Kim Kwang Soo, who won ‘Producer of the Year’ for “Roly Poly” at Gaon Chart’s Award Ceremony, helped propel the T-ara girls to fame with their ‘cat dance’ for “Bo Peep Bo Peep,” disco dance for “Roly Poly,” and shuffle dance for “Lovey-Dovey,” and has now started to think and worry about what kind of music and dance T-ara will use to show another image transformation.

The girls themselves stated, “We were already off to a great start for the year after we won the triple crown for ‘Lovey-Dovey,’ and now we’re going to have the official opening of our fan club and hold a large-scale concert this summer; we’re already so excited and nervous.”

North Korea strikes back over defectors

[benihime99.livejournal.com]

By Kim Young-jin

North Korea accused South Korea of abducting its people and using the issue of defectors to further isolate the Stalinist regime Saturday amid intense international scrutiny over its reportedly brutal punishment of those caught fleeing. The statement, issued by the North's Red Cross Society, came amid international concern over the plight of dozens of North Koreans thought to be in grave danger of being returned to their homeland after a period of detention by China.
