Unknowingly it’s already been two years since they debut. Telling the tale of teenagers’ dreams, happiness and love, wanting to play their own lovers, and giving out a warning to not test their feelings. Last June, they debuted in the music industry as Bangtan Boys with a hip hop style. They use their unique style that differentiates themselves from other idols to become an idol group that cannot and will not be replaced. This August they released their first full-length album ‘Dark & Wild,’ demonstrating the thoughts and troubles of those in their 10’s and 20’s. They are showing Bangtan Boys’ transition as youths to real men. They once again raised the bar for rap and vocal talent, and once again proved their outstanding musical talents. People are starting to notice and look forward to the 7-member group Bangtan Boys that is comprised of Rap Monster, Suga, Jin, J-Hope, Jimin, V, and Jungkook. Exactly how much growth ‘seeds’ is hidden behind the ‘Sonyeon’ in their names? Besides, everyone also wishes to know how long this seed that blooms dazzling flowers will go through a period of ‘red-hot’ time?

The SISTAR members will be appearing on the Christmas Special of tvN’s Taxi set to broadcast on December 23 and share their honest thoughts on dating.
The production team of Taxi filmed the episode with a double decker bus, which is symbolic in Hong Kong, and will be presenting a beautiful scenery along with SISTAR’s candid sides.
SISTAR especially caught attention by sharing their honest thoughts on dating. When MC Lee Young Ja asked if they have ever been hit on during their activities after making the debut, Soyou confessed, “I was hit on after I promoted Some and appeared on I Live Alone.”
Dasom revealed that Bora is the member who gets hit on the most out of all the SISTAR members. Hyolyn then said, “I want to have a thing with someone,” and Dasom also said, “I want to be in a secure relationship,” expressing thoughts on dating as women in their 20s.
Hyolyn said, “Korean people are especially cautious when they talk about dating,” and added, “I wish that idols would sincerely be congratulated when they confess that they are dating.”
On top of this, each of the SISTAR members showed their shopping style and fashion at the night market in Hong Kong to carry out the mission called ‘Express Hong Kong with Fashion’ and performed Gangnam Style in the youthful streets of Lan Kwai Fong.
The episode is set to air on December 23 through tvN.

lol, just imagine the pick up lines~ out of morbid curiousity, I wanna see how someone would try to hit on Bora, she's seems like she would the easiest to approach in Sistar but she's also the one who hates that stuff the most.

CGV‘s Location In America, which stars Enes Kaya, was originally postponed but now will be broadcast with Enes edited out.
On december 23rd CJ E&M released a press release asking viewers for patience, which said “Channel CGV’s travel reality program ‘Location in America’, which was provisionally delayed, will be airing tonight at 11PM KST. From the existing 3 parts, 2 parts were produced. From December 23rd to the 30th viewers can find it at 11 PM KST over a span of two days. Filming was all completed, but one of the cast members, Enes Kaya, is expected to be edited out of the broadcast as much as possible.”
The reason Enes was edited out was because of a recent scandal that surfaced in regards to him flirting with other women while being married and having a child. Numerous women accused him of going around as a bachelor and lying about his identity. Since then, Enes seeked legal action but has been taken out of the shows he is in and was even edited out of Abnormal Summit.

I was lucky enough to receive this album (personally from Hyunmin himself, which makes it even more special!!!) back in November at a DGNA fanmeet and am so happy to be able to give it away to one of you lovely Omonians.
The album is signed by all five members and contained a Mika card...but I'm throwing in an extra Karam card as well (which is a little bent, but still good, I promise!)
2. *~*SURPRISE LITTLE TREATS*~*
If I could get honey butter chips, I would get them, but beating the ahjummas and high schoolers to them is too hard :( So I have a few other different baubles and treats to send along with the album that will certainly make the winner smile~ ^^
