The whole SKT campaign is a lot of fun!
And there is an article in the magazine, but it's the usual 엄친아 shit and talk about his friendship with Andy Lau, so nothing really new. Plus the translation I found wasn't that great so I didn't put it in, but I still can add it if somebody's interested!

SHINee's Thanks To from "Why So Serious: The Misconceptions of Me" album

ONEW
There have been many days that were very happy and days that were difficult as I’ve lived so far, but I’ve always lead a bright life. I want to continue with that kind of life and live where I can always smile. I’m 25 this year. Five years have now passed by. Although sometimes there are difficulties of a life receiving everyone’s attention, I believe those aspects have made me stronger. I definitely think that people who do what they want will be happy. Of course that doesn’t mean I’m not happy. It’s just that now, it’s a time when I have a lot of thoughts not as a young child but as a human being. For this album, I thought about “What kind of misconceptions are there of me particularly?” There are several difficult and tiring misconceptions, but these thoughts are ones I can look back on and have a good time with. I’m always working hard without regrets for all the album preparations, but I will do a lot of thinking in order to show a cooler side of myself that regrets even less. There are good points and bad points about me, but I think I'll be able to unravel my thoughts.

JONGHYUN
Misconceptions make people imagine and predict. Out of your perceptions of me, most of them may be covered in misconceptions. But still, in my head, I am entirely me. Even misconceptions are me. Those things can leave negative results and positive results. A world that puts out unique interpretations from new misconceptions that differ from the original intention is more fun than one that proposes evident answers. The world was like that before I was born and will continue to be like that. Countless misconceptions have made the world more creative. I wanted to put that fun world into this album. “What do you think?” “What kind of new interpretation from your misconception does this album make you think of that we haven’t?”

KEY
Every thought that is signaled towards me is a misconception. The misconceptions of me.
(Key wrote this in English. It is not a translation.)

MINHO
At first, really scary and disappointing events kept occurring. When I tried to solve them, they became even more tangled. Because of all these things that happened to me, ever since I was young, I thought, “Are my worries growing progressively bigger?”. If I drill a hole in my thoughts and look back on myself one day through that hole, wouldn't I have become a wiser person? I’m now 23 years old. I’m still lacking to be receiving or expressing a lot. But I’m expecting to live a happier life by escaping pain through you and you through me. I’m always thankful...

TAEMIN
I’ve always thought positively about myself. I’ve designed my own map of life and acted upon it accordingly. But I think walls find me at unexpected places. It could be family, friends, staff who work hard for my sake. I thought there would be many people who can relate with my thoughts, but starting a social life at a young age, I thought differently than I did. However, others have slightly different codes than mine or if they understand my thoughts, they express it in another way. And things I didn’t think of ahead of time keep coming up. While preparing this album, I especially had this thought a lot. “I wish there was someone around who has the same thoughts as I do,” is what I often thought about. I said something like this recently on a show. “I want to make my own crew.” But there will be people who understand my intentions and people who take it in a different direction than my intention and misunderstand. There are times when even I don’t understand myself. A misconception doesn’t have a specific shape, but rather exists in a form. My actions that can be considered as shapes include my intentions and thoughts. In other words, I think most misconceptions are because of form. Even if I act appropriately according to my blueprint that I’m making, there is a possibility of a mistake being made due to a misunderstanding. However, there’s a meaning behind everything and overcoming and conquering them is the current me. I think it’s what Lee Taemin has to do. I’m not afraid of extremes. But while there are people who understand this side of me, there are a ton of people who resent and hate it. I wish they don’t have misconceptions of me based only on my actions which they can see and I hope no one gets hurt.

I don't really feel like No Eul's that fat or anything. She seems to have gained a little weight, but she was stick-thin during their To Me promos. Plus all those pics are captured of her dancing. And those are some tight pants too.
And mods, please disregard the last post.

Guess who’ll be joining the May rush of comebacks! It’s none other than boy group VIXX, who has announced their return through the words of their mascot ROVIX.

The photo above was posted on their official Twitter with the words, “This is ROVIX. At the VIXX members’ the performance of a new song from their first mini album, being released on the same day, will be revealed.”

The boys’ anniversary party is already a sold out event as tickets were snatched up by dedicated fans within 9 minutes of opening, so the lucky ST☆RLIGHTs attending will not only get to be up close and personal with the members, but also witness the first performance of their new title track!

The event and the mini album release will be happening on May 20th, so be on the look out for teasers that may come our way!

After recently revealing that Yoona and Seohyun were chosen to endorse SK Telecom LTE, the company has been constantly revealing new promotions for their ad campaign. Firstly, SK Telecom’s official Facebook page revealed a cute photo of Seohyun to thank people for all the support they’ve given to the brand.

Along with a variety of pictures, SK Telecom has constantly uploaded a number of new videos with interviews and CFs on their official YouTube channel. The first video shows Seohyun’s interview as she introduces herself as one of the new endorsers for SK Telecom LTE. The other short clips are fun CFs featuring Yoona, Seohyun, and Super Junior’s Siwon showing off SK Telecom LTE data. More features can also be found on the official website for SK Telecom LTE.

Meanwhile, Seohyun recently made an appearance on MBC’s “Section TV” alongside Siwon to give both a behind-the-scenes look at CF filming and to participate in short interview about their new endorsement for SK Telecom LTE.

Sorry for the lack of Music Core posts in the past few weeks. MBC stopped uploading performances onto Youtube, so I'll have to make do with the lower quality videos (which are often cropped into weird dimensions to prevent takedown). I hope you won't mind!

Vibe returns with pre-release track “I Want To Meet You At Least Once”

Vibe has kept fans waiting long enough and are finally making their return with the pre-release of a new single “I Want To Meet You At Least Once” (“For The Last Time”).

Yoon Min Soo, who many of you know and love as Yoon Hoo‘s father on ‘Dad! Where Are You Going?‘, has reunited with Ryu Jae Hyun to make a return with their 5th album ‘Organic Sound‘, which will come at a later date.

The pre-release track was composed and written by member Ryu Jae Hyun himself.

On the 3rd, “I Want to Meet You at Least Once” ranked #1 on all nine major music charts, including Mnet, Bugs, Melon, Monkey3, Soribada, Naver Music, Daum Music, Olleh Music, and Cyworld music real-time charts.

Vibe celebrate their all-kill on charts with paper cranes

Vibe celebrated their all-kill on charts by folding paper cranes!

To celebrate, the group took to their label’s Twiter to write, “To celebrate being 1st place on all sites~! Vibe thanks you with a photo~ May 15th!!! Vibe will come back with real music that is sadder and more beautiful. Please look forward to it!!!“. The two men seem to be folding cranes, perhaps to wish to do well on their song. It looks like their wish came true!
