[star magazine interview] WINNER’s Mino shares his favorite lyrics, passion and future goals

[suxaholic.livejournal.com]

From his underground experience to a brand new journey of being a rookie,Mino of WINNER has so many impressive attributes and The Star magazine was able to capture them all on their December 2014 issue! Check out the full interview below.You often



introduce yourself as, ‘When I’m cool, I’m totally cool and when I ruin myself, I ruin myself to the max.’ When do you think you’re the most cool and when do you think you ruin yourself [your image] the most?

Right-pointing black triangle Wouldn’t you say I’m the coolest when I’m standing on stage? I feel that way because it’s when I have to sincerely convey our music. When I ruin myself the most is when my members tell me to ruin myself. I’m really playful and I’m a huge jokester. I do a lot of impressions of Kim Hye Soo in Tazza, Kim Soo Mi,KARA‘s Heo Young Ji, and even carbonated water.

You were famous since your underground (rapping) days. Are there any differences between a long time ago when you stood on stage for underground performances and when you stand on stage now after becoming a public idol?

Ladies’ Code Manager and Families of Deceased Unable to Reach Agreement

[benihime99.livejournal.com]

The manager for Ladies’ Code is facing two and a half years in prison for his part in the car accident that claimed the lives of members EunB and RiSe in September. Sentencing is scheduled for January 15, 2015.

Prosecutors shared that “When there are damages in a case, there can be a settlement if both parties agree. In this case, the families of the victims were not able to come to an agreement [with the manager].”

The court ruled that the manager was speeding 50 kilometers (31 miles) above the speed limit and his efforts after the accident were lacking.

The manager acknowledged that he broke the law, but sincerely apologized and pleaded for leniency.

shinee world tour concludes....




Translation: 30 times of tour has ended. The sun that’s snooping around by the mountains. You have worked hard, from now on let’s work hard.


Tanslation: i’d never thought about not getting over it. it’s going to take some time. it’s going to be tiring. just a little worried accompanied by some anticipation. tomorrow we shall shine even more because we were not injured and are healthy. where and how each of us will shine, and what form we shall create.



Translation: our “tomorrow” have already been determined and that “tomorrow” will be a new one for everyone. the end of the tour also brought this year to an end, and now it’s time for us five to shine in our respective places. the ones who have toiled will gather again and shine even more as shinee. i’m back again at my secret place.


Translation: “this is shocking as always, are you ready to applaud for shinee?" like the lyrics i’ve written my role is to surprise you. get ready to applaud. i’ll, as always, give you a surprise


"we were so shining ! luv my life luv my lil freaks"

BIGBANG’S G-Dragon uploaded a picture on his Instagram account hinting at a music video for Skrillex’s “Dirty Vibe.” The photo shows G-Dragon standing in front of six women with his arms crossed and carries the hashtag “DIRTYVIBE.” This teaser is adding to fans’ anticipation for the music video.

This follows hints from both SB Projects and 2NE1’s CL about a possible music video for Skrillex’s “Dirty Vibe.” This is a song on which CL, G-Dragon, and Diplo collaborated. SB Projects previously released a teaser image of CL with the message, “Dirty Vibe coming 12/15.” CL also updated her Instagram account with a picture of herself in front of a sign that read “Dirty Vibe.”

Be on the lookout on 12/15 to check out this new music video!

YG Entertainment, the talent agency that represents BIGBANG and 2NE1, has announced that a music video for G-Dragon and CL’s collaboration with American electronica artist Skrillex will drop on December 16. The song, entitled “Dirty Vibe,” was originally released on the Skrillex album “Recess.”

A spokesperson for YG Entertainment explained, “G-Dragon and CL’s music video for the collaboration with world-renowned dubstep producer Skrillex will be released on December 16.”

The agency also took to social networking sites to release still images from what appears to be the video’s set. The photos show G-Dragon standing in front of what looks like a group of backing dancers, while CL is shown holding a large water gun.

The video will first be made available through the Red Bull website on December 16, and will be uploaded to YouTube on December 18.

[kyokomurasaki.livejournal.com]

Christmas has come early for K-pop fans. Myx TV has announced in a press release that it will be the first American cable network to air the popular Korean music program, Inkigayo.

Myx TV will air two preview episodes on Thursday, Dec. 18 and Tuesday, Dec. 23 ahead of the series premiere on Jan. 14 at 8 p.m. (EST). The series will feature episodes of the current season of Inkigayo airing in Korea on a weekly basis throughout 2015. Currently, the only Korean music chart program American K-pop fans can watch is M Countdown on Mnet America.

In addition to Inkigayo, Myx TV will be premiering a documentary TV series titled "K-Pop Incubation" on Tuesday, Dec. 16 at 8.pm. (EST). The doc reveals an inside look at the rigorous training that hundreds of K-pop trainees undergo each year. It stars Sorn, a Thai trainee at Cube Entertainment who is currently preparing for her Korean debut. Established K-pop acts, including U-KISS and AOA, are also expected to make an appearance in the series.

I know we've seen some documentary stuff with Sorn a while ago but I don't know if this is the same one. Does anybody on Omona have the Myx channel? I've never head of it before; I don't think my cable package offers it lol
