T.O.P and Seungri were not impressed by one of the new teams

[kingalexarnold.livejournal.com]

SEUNGRI and T.O.P, who are to be the judges of the first battle on YG Entertainment’s survival program ‘WHO IS NEXT: WIN’ is expected to throw harsh comments at the contestants. The show is aired on Mnet.

The episode that was aired on Sept 20 displayed a preview clip of the following week where Team A (Kang Seung Yoon, Lee Seung Hoon, Song Min Ho, Kim Jin Woo and Nam Tae Hyun) with their mentor TAEYANG and Team B (B.I., Koo Joon Hoe, Kim Jin Hwan, Bobby, Song Yoon Hyung and Kim Dong Hyuk) with G-DRAGON are going against each other for a fierce battle for the first time. And the two teams are being judged by SEUNGRI and T.O.P, who are captured bashing the contestants with very harsh comments.

T.O.P tells them, “I think you misinterpreted the song. It’s out of fashion,” while SEUNGRI says, “You have no character.”

Apart from the two, CL, DARA and BOM from 2NE1 will also be participating as judges, along with BIGBANG’s DAESUNG and YG’s founder YANG HYUN SUK.

‘WIN’ is a real survival program that divides YG’s 11 trainees into Teams A and B for an extremely fierce battle. For 10 weeks, the two teams will be put in 3 battles, and the winning team will be making a debut straight away as a boy group under the name ‘WINNER’. This will be YG’s first boy group in 8 years.

MR.MR to gain a 6th member, Jiwon!

[strawberry-efeu.livejournal.com]

Winning Insight M posted on MR.MR's fancafe today that MR.MR will be gaining a sixth member, rapper Jiwon! I would be upset because member changes are rarely a good thing, but he is really hot, tall, not a fetus, has nice tattoos and speaks English, so....no. Not going to complain. He'll join the group when they start their next round of promotions. Jiwon trained with the other MR.MR members prior to their debut, but because of personal circumstances he wasn’t able to debut with them.

After Sulli/Choiza's Dating Rumors, LeeSsang's Gil Trolls on Twitter

[contralilium.livejournal.com]

With the surfacing of f(x)'s Sulli and Dynamic Duo's Choiza's dating rumors Leessang's Gil lightheartedly responded, bringing about a round of laughs from his followers.

Just after the pictures were released, Gil hilariously tweeted, "Choiza… Downloading the ‘Control’ beat" (referring to the trend of diss tracks that fired up the Korean hip hop scene last month), as if to get his own diss ready to call out Choiza for taking Sulli off the market. It could also be interpreted as Gil predicting that Choiza is getting the ‘Control’ beat ready to lash out in response to being outed by the media.


Fortunately for Gil, both agencies are now claiming that Sulli and Choiza are not dating, but rather really close like a brother and sister, who are apparently so comfortable with one another that they can walk around holding hands.

HaHa replied to Gil, but I'm not sure what he says,  does anyone cares to translate?

[Breaking News] T-ara's Soyeon and Oh Jong Hyuk revealed to have been dating for 3 YEARS!

[ah-mui.livejournal.com]

Prepare your hearts for another celebrity couple because T-ara's Soyeon (26) and Oh Jong Hyuk (30) apparently have been an item for the past 3 years!

There have been rumors of the two being a couple previously but as neither side denied nor confirmed it, they simply remained as rumors, until now that is.

'Sports Seoul' is the one to break the exclusive this time as they have released photos of Soyeon and the former Click B member recently celebrating their 1000th day together with friends including J-Walk's Jang Su Won at a coffee shop in Gangnam on the 23rd.

Soyeon previously revealed herself to be a fan of Click B since her youth when the two appeared together on 'Star Golden Bell' back in November 2010. They also were on 'Bouquet' together on December 26 2010. The two's relationship, which began as that of a fan and a star, progressed into that of a couple on December 28th of 2010. Even while Oh Jong Hyuk was serving in the army, he and Soyeon remained firm, successfully withstanding the time apart from one another.

According to 'Sports Seoul', DSP Media confirmed their relationship status and stated, "Oh Jong Hyuk and Soyeon are meeting well. Oh Jong Hyuk, who has good manners and has a kind personality, fell for Soyeon's cute charms. Please watch over them beautifully." Core contents Media also apparently confirmed, "Their parents and families are aware of their relationship. Oh Jong Hyuk and Soyeon are carefully dating and they ask for your support."

With the surfacing of this report, when contacted by other media outlets, Core Contents Media stated to 'Xsportsnews', "Soyeon and Oh Jong Hyuk have been dating for 3 years... The two have been meeting each other for a long time, and the photos revealed are when they met up for their 1000th day party... They were meeting quietly even before Oh Jong Hyuk left for his enlistment. Even though T-ara had activities, Soyeon waited for him."

So it seems like these two have been officially confirmed to be a long-time couple! Congratulations to Soyeon and Oh Jong Hyuk!

( More photos )

Oh Jong Hyuk served in the Marines and seems like a sweet genuine guy. Watch the Happy Together episode for rock hard abs reveal! He admitted to a previous 3-year relationship with a fellow idol around minute 49:30 too.

SPICA takes on the electronic genre singing the theme of 'Dancing 9'

The talented ladies of SPICA have been chosen as the voices of 'Dancing 9's main theme song "Your Dance"!

Seeing that as the members fulfilled their dreams of becoming singers through ups and downs of the long years preparing for their road, the producers of the show felt that SPICA's story felt perfect for the message they want to give with this theme song for the dance survival program.

This is also the girls first try at the electronic genre, making it a new experience for them as well as their fans who haven't heard this type of sound from SPICA before.

Not my type of song, but I'll end up loving it just because it's Spica...

Netizens dig up past hints of Soyeon and Oh Jong Hyuk's relationship

[girlsday.livejournal.com]

It has been revealed that T-ara's Soyeon and Click B's Oh Jong Hyuk have been dating for three years since December 28, 2010. Of course, netizens have been quick to go on the internet to dig up whatever they could find about this newly confirmed celebrity couple.

They discovered that Soyeon had been ceaselessly hinting at her romantic relationship with Oh Jong Hyuk via Twitter since 2011.

Even before they started to date, Soyeon tweeted on November 2010, "I like Oh Jong Hyuk's song 'My Heart is Beating.'"

On May 2011, she wrote, "I have to listen to Click B's songs with Boram. Let's fall into memories starting with 'Promise,'" which was Click B's debut song.

In July of the same year, she tweeted, "As you are different from the ones I grew tired of and gave up on, I will protect you bravely so do not worry," "Who protects those who protect the country," this was around the time Oh Jong Hyuk went to serve in the military.

She even tweeted a countdown to the day Oh Jong Hyuk got discharged from the military. On June and July of 2012, she tweeted, "261 fighting," "185," and estimated the days until his discharge.

Tweets like these which were deciphered as somewhat random at the time were published quite regularly.

It is fairly easy to find all the tweets Soyeon wrote until approximately July 2012 in relation to Oh Jong Hyuk.

allkpop (they did not link to the korean article source and i can't navigate Korean sites so i can't look for it), sohotmelody (soyeon's twitter)


Such a cute couple... all the hints were there all along. EJ & Hyom's facial expressions said it all on that Bouquet episode. They were so happy for her!

Upcoming movie “The X” revealed stills of its leading actors, Kang Dong Won and Shin Min Ah.

The stills show Kang Dong Won dressed in black, covering part of his mouth with his gloved hands.
