Netizens express shame in lost potential of f(x)’s Sulli and T-ARA’s Jiyeon

A recent post on Pann has been heating up with fan discussion as it discusses the popularity of f(x)’s Sulli and T-ARA’s Jiyeon.
The post included a series of photos of Sulli and Jiyeon showcasing various poses, highlighting their allure and beauty. Despite these impressive visuals, the original post read, “They both have the best body and looks…but their actions.”
In response to this statement, many netizens have left comments of agreement. Particularly, they seemed to compare the two female idols with the likes of IU and Suzy. While they praised the idols for their beauty, they also brought up issues such as Sulli’s relationship with Choiza and the bullying scandal with Jiyeon as reasons the two are unable to reach the same level of popularity as other artists.
See what they had to say here:

1. [+281, -23] Very true… Sulli didn’t even need to fix her personalities. She would’ve been loved by the public if she worked hard. She still seems immature, it’s unfortunate. Jiyeon was so popular a few years ago. She can act and sing. She’s multi-talented but her strip cam and bullying controversy… How unfortunate


2. [+184, -90] Jiyeon was multi-talented including singing, dancing, looks, acting and popularity. She sank after bullying controversy. But she’s still the most popular member in her group. Her Chinese fansite has 600k members

3. [+148, -205] I expected Jiyeon and Sulli. But I don’t think Sulli’s level is that high. For Jiyeon, T-ara was very popular before their controversy. But Sulli… no

4. [+81, -15] Sulli’s looks are legendary. She’s still pretty when she’s chubby and she can pull off any hairstyle

5. [+79, -85] You just can’t hate Sulli, she’s so lovely. I hope she promotes in f(x)

6. [+67, -9] Jiyeon ㅋㅋ She was in top 3 with Suzy and IU… But she still has a lot of individual fans

7. [+54, -29] Sulli wasn’t at Suzy’s level even when she had a good image. Know the fact

8. [+47, -3] There are so many Sulli fans on Pann ㅋㅋ Why do you think she would’ve been at Suzy’s level if she had a good image? Even before she ruined her image, she never hit her peak. She was never popular by men, either. I honestly don’t like Jiyeon and IU but they were top 2 and Suzy was after them. Nothing’s gonna change if you lie on Pann ㅋㅋ


9. [+46, -28] I can understand Jiyeon but not Sulli. Before Choiza, she was still unpopular on male-dominated sites. Her dramas and movies all flopped and she didn’t have something that could bring massive popularity. She was popular by women only, which was the reason why she could never get a nation’s title. If you want to be at Suzy’s level, you have to be more popular by men, not women. Jiyeon was very popular by men. She ruined herself anyways


Choiza surprised by crowds chanting Sulli’s name

Dynamic Duo‘s Choiza was surprised during his performance when the crowds started chanting f(x) Sulli‘s name.

On May 23rd (KST), Dynamic Duo decorated the last stage for ‘Green Plugged Seoul 2015′ concert at Hangang Park in Seoul. As Choiza commented, “Today female audience members are really pretty. The gentlemen are cool too,” the crowds started chanting Choiza’s girlfriend Sulli’s name.
Reportedly, he was very surprised by crowd’s humorous joke and the duo’s counterpart Gaeko supported the audience, “It’s difficult for the crowds to come together as one voice and chant someone else’s girlfriend’s name.”
Following, Gaeko continued to use Sulli’s joke when he remarked, “Sing along your parts, gents and Sulli… oops, that was a slip of the tongue,” while he intended to say, “Sing along your parts, gents and ladies.”
Meanwhile, Choiza and Sulli have been spotted dating multiple times since 2013. Over continuous denials yet numerous dating rumours, the two finally confirmed their relationship on August 5th in 2014.

1. [+268, -46] I seriously don't get what Sulli has to be missing to be dating an ajusshi like this... he doesn't even act like a mature adult ㅡㅡ...

2. [+305, -33] Choiza just seems like he wants to make it so obvious

3. [+269, -23] The two of them are just soooo happy aren't they

4. [+21, -4] Yoona and Lee Seung Gi = understandable because Lee Seung Gi's a good guy. Suzy and Lee Min Ho = understandable because Lee Min Ho's handsome. Choiza and Sulli = ?

5. [+16, -5] Choiza's specs were leaked on the internet. I'd fall for him if I was a woman too...
Grandfather: Three time congressman
Father: CEO of a shipyard
Mother: Director of a child foundation
Brother: Doctor
Choiza: Graduated from Apgujung High School, has a degree in hotel management from Sejong Uni, currently a Dynamic Duo member with a 20 cm+ d*ck

1. [+3,341, -145] Jeez, both the couple and the fans are just so desperate to be as public as possible

2. [+2,844, -31] Gaeko sounds excited ㅋㅋㅋ

3. [+299, -10] Sulli clearly said that she's been suffering from hateful and sexual comments but this guy who calls himself her boyfriend goes out on SNL and acts irresponsibly. Seems he still hasn't cut the act.

4. [+246, -24] Is this the first time Sulli and Choiza have ever been in relationships??? They sure act like it. I don't even get why Sulli still uses the f(x) title in her name, it honestly pisses me off. Just call yourself Choi Jinri.

5. [+230, -19] Love how Sulli is the one who benefited the most from her team and she basically sucked them dry but she's also the one smearing the group's name. As if her doing it alone wasn't enough, she drags her boyfriend into this mess... Please manage your boyfriend.. oh wait, she can't even manage herself, how could she manage her boyfriend?

Things are heating up online with the release of Mamamoo Solar’s paparazzi cuts.

Solar’s paparazzi photos were published on community sites and SNS and quickly spread. The photos showed her on a street date with a suit-wearing man.

Without minding the eyes of those around, Solar and the man put their arms around each other, sat side-by-side on a bench eating ice cream, and other couple-like activities. They were even caught (looking like) they were kissing which caused shock. This was revealed to be part of Mamamoo’s shoot for their new song’s music video.

From Mamamoo’s company, “Mamamoo’s comeback is ahead on the 19th. The paparazzi photos of Solar that have been heating up online are from their music video shoot, and as expected, the man is fellow member, Moonbyul, dressed in male attire. In order to better deliver the story for the music video, we went with having her dress like a male. We ask that you wait for Mamamoo, who are overflowing with wit and stand out from others.

Mamamoo’s second mini-album will be released on June 19th, as they make their comeback to the music industry.

Fear of MERS Virus Leads Over 230 South Korean Schools to Close

04Korea1-web-master675
Tourists wearing protective masks in Seoul, South Korea, on Wednesday. Alarm was growing in the country over an outbreak of Middle East respiratory syndrome.

SEOUL, South Korea — More than 230 schools in South Korea have temporarily shut down, officials said on Wednesday, as fears of Middle East respiratory syndrome spread through the country.

Thirty South Koreans have tested positive for the virus that causes the disease, which has killed hundreds of people, mostly in Saudi Arabia. The outbreak in South Korea is the largest reported outside the Middle East, where the virus first emerged in 2012 and where a vast majority of the more than 1,100 cases and over 470 deaths reported have occurred.

Two of the South Korean patients died on Monday, and three others were in critical condition, health officials said on Wednesday. The authorities were also awaiting test results for 99 people suspected of being infected. The number of people isolated at home or in state-run quarantine centers while officials monitored them for symptoms had risen to 1,364 from 790 a day earlier.

So far in South Korea, all the reported cases of the syndrome, known as MERS, were found among medical staff members, patients or visitors at five hospitals. But the school closings were just one demonstration of a widespread public suspicion about the government’s response to the situation.

“A lot of fear we see now is rooted in the distrust of the government and what it says,” said Yu Min-yeong, head of Acase, a crisis management consulting firm based in Seoul.

South Korea grapples to contain MERS as 1,364 in quarantine

Hong Kong (CNN) - The World Health Organization warned that the MERS outbreak in South Korea is likely to grow, as 1,364 people remained under quarantine Wednesday and confirmed cases grew to 30 people.

The extent of the outbreak in South Korea has taken many by surprise -- mainly because the virus has not been shown to spread easily between humans and the health care system in the country is considered to be sophisticated and modern. )

Solo singer Son Dam Bi has decided to look for a new management agency after parting ways with Pledis Entertainment.

Known as one of Korea’s representative female soloists, Son Dam Bi made her debut in 2007 with “Cry Eye” and has since released hits like “Crazy” and “Saturday Night.” Throughout her eight-year journey as a singer, she has been represented by Pledis Entertainment.

The agency thanked the singer, “These past ten years (that includes her time as a trainee) were filled with happiness and joy. Although it is hard to say goodbye, Son Dam Bi’s contract recently expired, and we have come to a mutual decision to go our separate ways. Pledis Entertainment exists because of Son Dam Bi. The company and her hoobaes were able to grow thanks to her. Pledis will always support her, no matter what.”

Meanwhile, Son Dam Bi has recently been active as an actress, appearing on KBS2TV’s “What’s With This Family” and the upcoming Olive TV’s “Yoomi’s Room.”

Untouchable‘s Sleepy and Secret‘s Song Ji Eun will be collaborating on a surprise digital single album in June. The title track will be a duet song between Sleepy, the talented rapper, and Song Ji Eun, who is known for her beautiful singing.

This is the second time that they will be working together since Song Ji Eun worked with the hip hop duo Untouchable in 2008 on the song “I Will Give You Everything.” Since the song received a lot of love from fans with the cute vocals and catchy rap, the news of a new collaboration is naturally getting the attention of many fans.

Meanwhile, Sleepy is currently appearing on MBC‘s variety program “Real Men,” and is earning nicknames such as “Zombie” for his hard work and incredible determination no matter what. As for Song Ji Eun, she recently starred in tvN‘s “The Superman Age.”

BIGBANG has revealed that they actually drank alcohol during filming for the music video of their new song, “We Like 2 Party.”

According to a representative of the group, “We wanted to portray a more natural vibe, and after much consideration we thought it would be better to do a video that captures the true feeling of the song rather than have them act it out. So [BIGBANG] drank in the studio and then filmed the video. Fans will therefore get to see a more relaxed BIGBANG than normal in the video.”

Ahead of this revelation, BIGBANG also gave an explanation for the music video of “We Like 2 Party” during a live appearance on Naver’s “BIGBANG Countdown Live” on June 1. “We have always put a lot of effort into our videos, but this time we wanted to do something that was more cute and innocent, something that showed our natural sides. You can expect this to be different from our other videos, it will show us looking more normal and not dressed up.” During the broadcast, T.O.P also admitted to having had around four cans of beer.

“We Like 2 Party” is a song that incorporates the casual feeling of summertime and parties, and can be thought of as totally opposite to their other new June track, the intense “Bang Bang Bang.” Adding to the anticipation of the song is the camcorder style that the group used to directly film the video. It is scheduled for release on June 5 at midnight.

Meanwhile, from May to August, BIGBANG will release new singles on the first of each month. These songs will then be included in the group’s comeback album, “Made,” which is set for release in September. It released “Loser” and “Bae Bae” on May 1, and then followed those hits with the release of “Bang Bang Bang” and “We Like 2 Party” on the first of this month.
