SEOUL, Aug. 14 (Korea Bizwire) — Korea’s big-three talent agencies– SM Etertainment , YG Entertainment, and JYP Entertainment–are competing hard in launching new idol groups. Of these, however, only YG Entertainment has seen its share price soar recently while others are languishing in the market.
According to financial investment sources on August 13, the top-three entertainment agencies have debuted new groups including the four-member girl group “Red Velvet” by SM Entertainment, the five-member boy band “Winner” by YG, and the seven-member boy group “Got7″ by JYP.

Since people post the likes of San E or Verbal Jint but there's a lot of other hip hop being released out there, I just thought I might try and give a weekly highlights sort of thing
In alphabetical order, except Joe Rhee was first because his was the only one with an actual mv

The investigation into a possible celebrity prostitution ring, which started rumors about several k-drama actresses, has resulted in a single conviction and a fine.
The 2013 investigation started rumors about which actresses might be involved and at least 30 actresses were said to be part of the ring. A few k-drama actresses felt the need to publicly state their innocence and some even took legal action to stop the spread of rumors. Almost all of the actresses who were rumored to be involved had their named cleared when the prosecution said they could only confirm the activities of one actress.
That actress, Sung Hyun Ah, who was the second runner up for the title of Miss Korea in 1994 was indicted on charges of prostitution in December 2013 and promptly counter-sued to prove her innocence.

There are speculations that Seven Seasons had it taken down to get more views on their own video. I've seend it said, though, that according to the Block B fancafe, Seven Seasons had nothing to do with it, but the video was reported by someone. It might be put up again but it means the almost 2 million views on the video are lost.

I swear to god, these guys are cursed. There's some sort of misfortune every time they promote, and just when it was going so well for them with their M!Countdown win! I really hope something can be done to retrieve those views. Taeil, promise to show off your muscles and tattoos if people get 10 million views on the MV!

Since it’s still summer an "ice cream special" feels like a good idea.

Plot:
A remake of the hit 2008 Taiwanese drama “Fated to Love You“.
Lee Gun (Jang Hyuk) is the president of a family company that produces shampoos and soaps. He is deeply in love with a ballerina. Meanwhile, Kim Mi Young (Jang Na Ra) works as a secretary in a law firm. Her nickname is “Post-it” (sticky note). She earned this nickname because she is so complaisant that her colleagues dump trivial chores on her.
Lee Gun and Kim Mi Young’s paths cross. Fate and a pair of misfit conspirators cause them to pass a befuddled night together, unintentionally. She becomes pregnant….
You can watch it here: Viki // Gooddrama // Dramafire

Damn girl those vocals.
I never thought i'd say this but Second Lead syndrome has reared it's ugly head. The proposal towards the end was one of the most sincere gestures I've seen. There were no fireworks or bold declarations, but a simple request to become family. Now that would be hard to say no to. Well the title will make it inevitably pointless and Fate will find a way, the pesky thing. Hopefully it'll only find them after Gun realises that being a Prince is easy, and grand gestures don't amount to much when you leave the person you love to deal with such heartache on their own. And noble idiocy is not admirable.

Jang Nara for all the awards. And

According to a source in the music industry, Super Junior’s seventh official full-length album is scheduled to be released this coming September 1! It is also being reported that the brand new comeback album will contain a total of 10 tracks.
The group’s upcoming return will be their first in about two years and 2 months, since the release of their sixth album “Sexy, Free & Single” in July of 2012. Their comeback has been receiving attention from early on, due to news of member Leeteuk joining in on preparations for the album immediately upon his release from the military.
The members of Super Junior also dropped a few hints in regard to their comeback plans during the “SMTOWN Live World Tour Concert” in Seoul on August 15. Member Eunhyuk shared, “We wrapped up our music video and jacket shoot not too long ago. Our comeback is right around the corner, so we are practicing hard.”
Meanwhile, Super Junior will be opening up their “Super Show 6” concert on September 20 and 21 at Jamsil Indoor Stadium in Seoul.

SM, you better promote them properly. Actually, I like when they promote themselves. You should just let them take care of proper artist promotions from now on.
