T-ara has confirmed their comeback to be for September 11th, but they are left in a urgent situation after they decided to reconsider which song to choose as their title track.

T-ara are moving forward with their comeback, but the title song is still not confirmed. They are in an emergency before their comeback schedules begin shortly.

They received two completely different styles of song as candidates for the title song - one with Brave Brothers and one with Shinsadong Tiger.

The Brave Brothers song is a unique dance track full of femininity. It has a fresh and exciting melody, but it comes with sad lyrics. The song could possibly be sexy and revealed exciting and emotional charms of T-ara. These types of songs have success in the long run on the chart.

On the other hand, the Shinsadong Tiger song is a little bit more risky. It has a heavy club-based sound followed by a powerful melody. T-ara’s best-known song with Shinsadong Tiger is “Roly-Poly” which had a cute concept, but this song has a completely different color to it. Either way, T-ara wants to abandon their cute concept and show a more fierce side of them on stage.

Core Contents Media will gather opinions on the two songs before their full-fledged comeback begins in a few weeks. It’ll be difficult to decide between either song because more and reportedly very good.

An official said, “It’s a very unusual situation to be in. We will utilize the reaction to each concepts and carefully review which one will have a better outcome for T-ara.”

Nonetheless, T-ara will still make their comeback on September 11th!

...Did I just read 'Brave Brothers' and 'unique' in the same sentence. /Prays furiously for the Shinsadong Tiger track/

Having released its first full length album 2014 S/S on August 12, Winner ranked number one on nine music charts in Korea as soon as the album was released, proving that their time spent waiting and preparing was not wasted.

Sweeping across all daily charts, Winner’s title Empty even topped the weekly chart, beating out other new songs in the competitive world of K-pop.

Reps confirmed that the two have known each other since 2012 but it was only in recent months that they began dating. They got into a severe verbal argument that turned into a physical fight once emotions got out of control. Reps denied that he habitually assaulted her.

The physical fight only happened once. Her rib cage did not break during that fight but in an earlier incident when they were just fooling around. The next day, she went out with her friends and did not realize she had been hurt.

In the upcoming episode of “Real Men,” seven female celebrities will enter the military to receive training in the army.

Prior to the beginning of training, all of the members had to go through a physical test.

Kim So Yeon, who has kept an image of a tough heroine through her role in the drama IRIS, surprised everyone by failing to pass all of her physical tests. Unlike her action-packed roles in the dramas, she failed to pass the sit-up test, push-up test, and running test.

[INT] 140823 Segment from Winner’s Interview about Block B



#. The group that Winner won their very first #1 against was Block B. Song Mino especially has a deep relationship with Block B. This is because he has an attachment with them like no other as they dreamed the same dream, and at one time prepared for debut together with a few of the members.

On the interview day, Song Mino choked on his words from rush of emotions while speaking of his relationship with Block B’s P.O (real name Pyo Jihoon), and shortly thereafter made known his strong friendship with him.


Q. Winner went against Block B for their first win candidacy, how did you feel about that?

(Song Mino) It’s a drama, the story of me and Jihoon (P.O). We were friends since we were young, and we both liked rap since high school. This was the time before I started dieting. We lived together and auditioned together, but then I lost a lot of weight and got in. We thought that we would both get in if we auditioned, but only one person got in and the other one got rejected. So we promised each other, “One day, let’s meet on the same stage”, and we happened to meet on “MCountdown” as nominees for #1. We held each other’s hands tightly and spoke to each other through our eyes while waiting for the reveal for #1.

(Kang SeungYoon) Before the winner was revealed, I saw the two guys (Song Mino and P.O) and I felt a lump in my throat. Regardless of the fact that we were competitors, I was touched that Zico hyung came to us after we won and gave me a hug.

(Song Mino) We went to the Block B hyungs after we won to say sorry but they sincerely congratulated us.

(Lee Seunghoon) I saw them for the first time, but they even congratulated our other members. I’m thankful because they congratulated Winner’s #1 the most sincerely among the people there.

In order to raise awareness for Lou Gehrig disease, the ice bucket challenge has been a wide trend lately. The ice bucket challenge was initiated by America Lou Gehrig Association (ALS) in order to help patients diagnosed with the disease. The event started in America in July but became a global movement, including Korean artists, such as Choi MinSik, Yoo JaeSuk participated in it. 24 hours after being nominated, the nominee will have to pour ice water or donate USD 100 to the association. He/she can then call out 3 names to continue the campaign.

As the event proceeds, it has raised good responses as celebrities take on the challenge and/or donate to the association. Although some did take it as a joke or as a publicity stunt, celebrities that are sincere in their delivery of these meaningful messages have gained attention.

Hello everyone, this is AKDONG MUSICIAN.
We would like to extend our gratitude to Director Yong Ih, IU and Song So Hee for nominating us to be part of this meaningful relay. With much happiness, we decided to take part by making a donation from the two of us. We sincerely hope that this campaign will raise awareness of the disease while also hope that this can open up the path to the complete cure for ALS.

Hi everyone,
This is T.O.P, or CHOI SEUNG HYUN.
I am thrilled to join in on the Ice Bucket Challenge, a campaign that raises awareness of and fundraises for ALS, also known as the Lou Gehrig's disease. I was nominated by musician BoA and actor Cho Seung Woo, and I deeply thank them for letting me be part of this meaningful campaign.
However, instead of taking part in the Ice Bucket Shower, I would like to make a donation to the Seungil Hope Foundation that has been carrying out philanthropic deeds for patients suffering from the disease. I hope my involvement in the campaign can raise awareness of the patients who are suffering from the disease, and that it can provide hope to the patients.

Coming together for the first time, ZE:A’s Kevin, Nine Muses’ Kyung Ree, and a new rookie will form a unit group called Nasty Nasty.

On August 22, Star Empire Entertainment dropped a teaser photo of Kevin hugging So Jin, a rookie singer, while ready to kiss Kyung Ree behind her back.

The name Nasty Nasty came from the US slang, nasty, which is used to express something sexy,” stated Star Empire Entertainment. “As three of the sexiest artists in Star Empire have gathered, please give your interest!

Nasty Nasty will release its new song on September 3.

Since I listen to k-indie way more than I listen to k-hip hop (or kpop for that matter) I decided that this was a logical thing to do

There's a ton of really great indie music being released every week so hopefully this will get it some more appreciation!
