I was surprised at the results. Mostly at HaHa's place. And Sad for Suk Jin. He deserves better tbh. Also I don't see why Ji Hyo couldn't be an option. And I don't understand why they previewed female celebs voting only to not show it later.
Mention Yoon Eun Hye this episode but not the last when GONG YOO was a guest? Loosing your touch there.

Tiffany and Bora's Harper’s Bazaar Interview

[cagallisakura.livejournal.com]

Editor’s note: text in italics are the thoughts and words of the interviewer.

Tiffany’s energetic voice filled the studio. I’m currently watching a scene of Girls’ Generation’s Tiffany and SISTAR’s Bora’s friendship. With bright and healthy appearances, they took selcas making funny facial expressions on purpose and gave each other tips regarding what kind of clothes suit one another without hesitation. While continuing their petty, everyday occurrences that reminded me of the chats I have with friends, Tiffany, who has particularly white skin, would laugh loudly, saying, ‘We’re like cookies and cream, being together with tan-skinned Bora’, and Bora would simply agreed. This was like the natural sense of closeness between two children, different from friendship, packed with charming actions of excessive compliments that’s commonly seen on television. It’s not easy for a member of one of the top idol groups, amidst the overflowing amount of girl groups, to do a magazine photoshoot with another group’s member. It seems the management companies ‘consenting’ to this was only possible because they are ‘Tiffany’ and ‘Bora’.

Like an empty friendship, it’s not easy for people who simply know each other through work to appear so smooth. Becoming friends with someone met through everyday life requires absolute timing or careful efforts. The two’s history is short but strong, and more than anything, it’s natural. It was to the point where Hyoyeon and Sunny noticed Bora was Tiffany’s ‘match’ upon first glance while filming the variety show ‘Invincible Youth 2′ and introduced them to each other. Tiffany replied to the question of how they were able to create a friendship, rather than having a sense of rivalry, through sharing their experience in girl groups.

OP note: i'm not 100% sure if this includes all of bora's interview parts. it's definitely missing her solo pics so i don't know.

TAEYEON'S CECI INTERVIEW

[cagallisakura.livejournal.com]

When asked to choose who I wanted to meet from Girls’ Generation, my choice was always Taeyeon. Because her subtle, yet powerful voice was the strong first impression from a group called Girls’ Generation. 2014 makes 8 years for Girls’ Generation. They opened up a new chapter in the Korean music industry, and, rather than remaining in the generation they created, they wanted challenges. While none are teens anymore, they’re still relentless. They have been pulling in everything possible as Girls’ Generation’s territory and have been building up a large, solid fortress. When there is word about a comeback, it is said their next steps will decide Girls’ Generation’s future. However, no matter what the appearance of their comeback, nothing would be weird. Among lively members who are overflowing with personality, Taeyeon always quietly stayed a step back. Doing what she likes by singing & sharing loving looks with her fans: it feels like that is how she spends her time. White skin almost transparent, baby-like smiling eyes, but she is a bit secretive. What might be in her heart? On the first day of raging sleet this winter, I met Taeyeon. She hesitated quite a bit, trying and trying not to show her feelings. However, I didn’t want to rush her. Because there had to be something valuable about her that didn’t need to be shown easily. 26 year-old Taeyeon is currently going through her most beautiful time right now.

[ceecile.livejournal.com]

It is being reported that actor So Ji Sub and After School‘s Jooyeon have been dating for over a year.

The news was reported in the upcoming January edition of Women’s Sense. According to the magazine, the two have been dating for about a year and four months. The two met in the summer of 2012 after being introduced to one another by MBLAQ‘s G.O. The two usually spent their dates at So Ji Sub’s home in Seoul. On December 19 the two had a date, and the next day So Ji Sub dropped her off at a hair salon. They even went to the U.S. together, and Jooyeon refers to So Ji Sub as “my boyfriend.”

In response to the rumors, a representative of So Ji Sub’s agency said, “This is the first time we are hearing of this. We are currently asking him about it.”

Jooyeon’s agency, Pledis, said that “Jooyeon is currently on a plane from China to Korea. We will ask her when she arrives.”

[UPDATE]
A spokesman for So Ji Sub denied that the two were dating. He said, “We checked with So Ji Sub and it is true that G.O. had introduced the two of them, but they met casually. They are not in a romantic relationship.”

G.O.’s spokesman also made an official statement about his involvement in bringing the two together, “It was not a private introduction. There were many people there in a casual setting.”

The 100 Most Beautiful Faces of 2013

[cagallisakura.livejournal.com]

TC Candler presents The 24th Annual Independent Critics List of the 100 Most Beautiful Faces - 2013, which has been published, in various formats, every year since 1990... and in recent years has been seen by close to 40 million unique visitors from around the world.

Unlike many other annual publications, The Independent Critics List is not a popularity contest. It is not about the sexiest or the most famous. Rather, it aims to be a very international list and one that is inclusive of many cultures, lifestyles, professions and degrees of fame. The Independent Critics List intends to inform public opinion rather than reflect it. This list searches far and wide, listening to the millions of suggestions submitted every year, and tries to put together a list representative of the modern ideal of beauty. Aesthetic perfection is only one of the criteria. Grace, elegance, class, poise, joy, promise, hope... they are all embodied in a beautiful face.

34 countries are represented on the 2013 list. That number seems to go up every year as the list grows and expands. Feel free to comment below with your suggestions or opinions. Originality is most welcome! Of course, lists are very subjective... you will disagree with some of the choices, but perhaps you will find a new favorite. Every year, this list is populated by some legendary beauties who never seem to fade, but it is also replenished with the freshest and most promising talent from around the world.

( 51-100 )

( 1-50 )
