In which she opens up about her latest film/confirms that Jim Sturgess is her bf
Bae Doona has emerged as a South Korean actor with a growing global pedigree, with her latest film A Girl at My Door being selected for Cannes' Un Certain Regard section. CJ Entertainment also scored an early deal with France's Epicentre for the drama and expects to close more deals.
After turning heads in Bong Joon Ho's The Host, the 35-year-old went on to sweep acting awards in Japan for Air Doll -- which was also invited to Cannes -- before the Wachowskis picked her up for Cloud Atlas and this summer's Jupiter Ascending. But Bae hasn't forgotten her arthouse roots, and she says her lonely sojourn in Hollywood inspired her to take on the emotionally challenging role in A Girl at My Door.

This Brazilian man has gone under the knife multiple times in order to look more East Asian. Do you think he succeeded?
Though his silicone facial implants and lip surgery are nothing unusual in Brazil, the 25 year old has gone a step farther to transform himself by making alterations to his eyes.
Xiahn, who asked not to be fully named to protect his family from Internet scrutiny, underwent 10 surgical procedures on his eyes, along with other less-invasive procedures, which cost him a total of $3,100. He also began wearing contact lenses to change his eye color.

A group constantly being the centre of topics, T-ara. Among them, the one with the widest variety of activities onscreen, member Hahm Eunjung. Through bntnews’ interview and pictorial shoot, we meet her.
As a T-ara member who is always under glamorous spotlight, she has become the centre of many topics and gossips in recent times. Although she has cried, and also laughed, she never gets overly emotional. The professional attitude that she demonstrates comes from her experience she has accumulated in the entertainment industry since she was a child actress and also from her strong willpower.
The public remembers the various aspects of her. Although we’ve seen the Hahm Eunjung of T-ara in acting, variety, and many other different aspects, it is not often that we get the chance to listen to her frank words.We meet Hahm Eunjung as one person, and also as a woman.

To OP's joy, Siwon is back in Korea and thus back on twitter. It's only been a few days but Korea's twitter king has already given us a few memorable interventions, showing us all why he's worthy of his 4M followers. I missed him so much!

Rays of the morning sun came through a window high like the rooftop. Sitting in front of this window, Lee Hyori was getting her hair and makeup done for the photo shoot. “Welcome. It must have been hard to come that early, right?” Last year, Lee Hyori and her husband Lee Sang Soon held their wedding in this place and we were here after they had come back from a short trip.
Anyone would be curious about Lee Hyori’s house. This place isn’t Lee Hyori’s vacation home. It’s her only “home”. “I no longer have a house in Seoul. Jeju people like us who don’t have a house in Seoul reserve an apartment in Seoul they can use together. I don’t really have a reason to go over there.” A garden and a wide field can be seen through the window. There are a studio and solar electric plate(s) next to the house. This house built of wood and stone is naturally a part of the forest. The house and the studio are decorated with this merbeau tree red color that looks so outstanding that one would wonder how it would change as time went by. “This is the final version of the house made by an architect we were introduced to. Except for saying things like “I wish there would be no room”, “I wish there would be a high rooftop”, there was no concrete plan. We didn’t know the house would look like this!” As they wished, the house has no room and the space is divided by curtains. The three dogs – Soonshim, Iguana, Mocca – which were the first to welcome us here went everywhere inside the house and were in the middle of morning greetings. Every time the door leading outside was opened, they never missed a chance to rush outside. The thing that especially got Iguana’s attention was the pony that was the new member of Lee Hyori’s family. It was absorbed in discovering this pony. Once her preparation was over, Lee Hyori also came outside with two big sticks of celery to see her pony. Lee Sang Soon brewed coffee for the Seoul guests storming in since Sunday morning, the sweet pumpkin soup was simmering in a pot. Everybody came to sit at the wooden table and ate the warm and soft sweet pumpkin soup.

If you want to match this society that demand youth and beauty, you’ll keep being stressed out. No matter how good the cosmetics you use will be and the surgery you do, you won’t be able to reach these expectations in the end. Isn’t it better to have a peaceful and healthy life?

They show chemistry with clothes during photo shoots or fashion shows. And they wear clothes for any gender, they’re asexual (op's note: i thing the right wrd should be androgynous?). Women aren’t the only ones who can be muses. We met four fascinating male models.

Netizens have been abuzz lately and in contact with Jellyfish Entertainment in order to comment on the choreography for VIXX’s “Eternity.”
According to buzz, Leo fans are angry at Jellyfish Entertainment because Leo was not featured enough in the dance sequences for “Eternity.” Fans estimate Leo only has about 20-30 seconds of screen time, which didn’t settle well, especially since N has more face time and lip syncs Leo’s parts! Fans protested, and Jellyfish changed the choreography so Leo had more time on air.
Now, rumors are Starlights are angry at each other over the controversy since they feel all members should have equal love, and they are angry at Jellyfish Entertainment since they changed the choreography so fast.
Jellyfish Entertainment can’t catch a break with fans given previous controversies, so they seem to be listening to fans more when it comes to their groups.
Many Starlights feel Jellyfish shouldn’t have changed anything.
Fans of Leo and N may be at odds.
Fan in-fighting feels a bit strange, but it does happen. But should it happen over something as small as choreography?
What do you think of the whole issue?

Though I do agree that each member should have a chance to shine, I think doing something like this is messy. Starlights are slowly becoming the whiny fandom...I don't want to be know as the whiny fandom, Starlights get your shit together. If anything the camera men or women need to go back to training because they never film the right people when it comes to these different music shows.
There is no real reason for this gif....I just thought N-na looked pretty is all.
