JYJ’s Junsu to Release a New Solo Album in March

[frantastic.livejournal.com]

JYJ member Junsu will make a comeback in March this year, according to his talent agency C-JeS Entertainment.

On January 16, an agency representative announced, “Junsu will be making his solo comeback in March. After releasing the new album, he will continue to hold concerts in both Korea and Japan. Junsu is currently putting a lot of effort into making the new album’s title track. Listeners will be able to see a huge change in style in the new album.”

Junsu made his solo debut in 2012 with the album “Tarantallegra,” and followed it up with the sophomore effort “Incredible,” which dropped over a year and a half ago. The latter album was a blend of R&B, dance, nu-soul and funk musical stylings, so fans will be keen to see in which musical direction the JYJ star decides to embark for his new release.

[frantastic.livejournal.com]

Apink’s Eunji recently finished recording for JTBC‘s newest variety program Alone in Love where the woman is recorded carrying out missions that will persuade the men who watch the program that they are dating. It is delving into the psychology of women, how they approach dating, and how they act when dating.

Eunji talked about the unique experience saying, “It wasn’t simple since I wasn’t acting toward an actor standing before me, but only the cast and the audience member behind the camera. It was unfamiliar but wonderful experience and I tried my best create a realistic image of a ‘lover’.”

DNIWORKs OFFICIAL CHANNEL

For those who (like me) have no idea who these are they are apparently a rotational group that debuted in 2010. Sara from Scarlet, Jina from Badkiz, Woori from Lay.T and Aram from Queen B'z are ex-members. They released a new single and new line up last year but I never found a full MV or it never got posted and they kinda fell silent again (here's the short version though) so I'm intrigued that they've uploaded this.

Healer — Ep 11-12 Discussion Post

[miyozari.livejournal.com]

Watch on Gooddrama|Viki|Dramafever



In the early 1980s, there were five friends who ran an illegal broadcasting station.
Back then, the world was much simpler.
It was clear what had to be defended and fought for.
The way to go forth was like a straight line.
But reality destroys ideals.
Time teaches one about betrayal and compromise.

Now, their children have grown up to their twenties.
One of them became an agent who steals the secrets of others at night.
Another is a paparazzi who digs for information about others behind their backs.
In this damned world left behind by their parents,
political and societal justice are just unlucky words to them.

But there is one person who will take them forward. Thanks to him…
These children now start to harbour the same dreams as their parents. A dream to become a real reporter.
But in order to become true reporters, there is a wall that they have to overcome.
This world that their parents have shaped and left behind for them.

Will these children be able to become the real reporters that their parents once dreamed of?
Will they be able to untie the knots of the past and change the world?

“The world messed with us first,” one person among us said.
“No, it is us who have sinned against the world,” yet another person said.
- Hwang Jin Woo, from “Within the Broad-leaved Forest”
