It’s rare to see a dating news article already contain the denial, but yes, that is what the The Fact’s article is like.
Local news agency The Fact reports that singer Zion.T (born 1989) and model-turned-actress Lee Som (a.k.a Esom) (born 1990) are dating. The Fact states that it heard the rumors that the two were dating and after it started its investigation, it spotted Zion.T dropping off Lee Som in his Audi A5 convertible to her house on June 22.

Is it time for a Primary tag? And is there a better tag for Paloalto than just hip hop?

“All About Yu” Fan Meeting in Yokohama (Day 1): Summary of Yuchun’s Letter to Fans
"I’m going to embark on a new journey, honestly, I feel uneasy. But because I wanted to let everyone see the matured Park Yuchun after two years, putting everyone in my heart, it becomes my strength to go forward and take this step. Even though we’re apart, I’m still with everyone under the same sky. It’s already been more than 10 years since my debut, right? 1/3 of my life was spent together with everyone. It looks long, but looking back at it, the road travelled was not smooth. There were cherished dreams, and there were also uneasy and painful times. But I was able to put a smile on my face and walk until today… I should be thanking the members who have joined hands and walked together, my most understanding family, the staffs who have been supporting us, and everyone who have been warmly watching over (protecting) me and giving me love."
Around the end of June, somewhere in Shin-Yokohama. When he came into the room, he first said “please take care of me today.” (T/N: more like a polite expression than the literal meaning of it) His warm smile immediately brightened up the whole room. Then he started taking pictures, hummed a song, and joked with the hairstylist, just like an innocent teenager. When the staff praised him “so handsome”, Yuchun turned shy. Showing his handsome form, suddenly, he revealed his cute expression. The staffs would not move from their view. The whole interview was fun.
During the interview, ANAN’s staff said Yuchun doesn’t look like 29 years old. He immediately said, “That’s right” and added “just like a middle-school (high school) student.” The staff frankly replied, not like a middle-school student. Because Yuchun has a sense of humor, the whole interview was relaxed and happy. He doesn’t only “reply”, but rather, he “conversed” diligently (with his heart). After the interview, he also politely expressed his thanks to everyone.
During the interview, it seems that the person who enjoyed it more was Yuchun himself. Humming “anan, anan” by himself, imitating the sound “Xiu Xiu” when the hairstylist puts hairspray and talking to the staff.
Q: Please introduce the drama “The Girl Who Sees Smells”
YC: It’s about a young man with no feelings meeting a girl who can see smells. (laughs)
Q: Is the content very funny?
YC: No, when I was acting it, it’s really painful.
Q: Yuchun-ssi is not scared of pain?
YC: (His voice became louder a bit) I’m scared of pain.
Q: You’re referring to the physical pain, right?
YC: Scared of pain, very scared. Pain is pain!
Q: Heard you were injured while filming?
YC: The muscle near my ribs was injured. But the role requires action scenes. I can’t complain. That one is quite difficult.
Q: How about mind and spiritual pain?
YC: It’s not very strong, and not very weak. Mundita? How do you say it in Japanese? (asks staff) Accustomed? Numbness? It’s not right. How do you say it? It’s not paying attention to it, it’s ignoring it.
Q: You mean you’ve learned not to pay attention to it?
YC: Yes, somewhat like that.
Q: How do you overcome mind and spiritual pain?
YC: Is there a way to overcome it? (turns to staff) Usually, what would everyone do? Drink? Watch TV? Play games?
Q: Would you tell or pour out your grievances to others?
YC: Usually I won’t. When eating out with friends and listening to everyone’s usual small talks, that kind can heal more.
Q: During the Japan tour last year, what kind of scene did you see up on stage?
YC: Was it last year? To summarize it in one word, it would be very beautiful, and also very touching. Thinking about how we can be on stage and look at everyone, I don’t know until when it would be.
Q: Something that left a deep impression on you?
YC: I have many memories with Japan. During the second encore of the concert in Tokyo Dome when we cried while singing “Begin” together.
Q: Did you cry during the rehearsal?
YC: I was okay during the rehearsal. But at the concert venue when the music played, I couldn’t stop the tears from falling.
Q: Among the songs of JYJ, which song is the one you cherish the most?
YC: (smiled brightly) wow! Recently, I have many activities as an actor and lesser activities as a singer. These kinds of question are very few. Very happy! Personally, the one I cherish the most is still “Found You”.
Q: This time’s drama is about smell…you feel your smell is..?
YC: Smell? Is it really the smell?
Q: Both can be. Your personal smell or your internal smell.
YC: Internal smell? Ah, it’s the smell of a person. It’s because I’m also an ordinary person, an ordinary person’s smell.
Q: You’re a celebrity!
YC: Really. Really, the people working in the entertainment industry would usually live the life of an ordinary person.
Q: Being in the entertainment industry for 10 years and maintain this kind of mentality is not easy.
YC: Is it? I’m not sure.
Q: What kind of existence are fans for you?
YC: It’s hard to explain because our activities in Japan are very limited. I feel I can’t do anything if fans have already forgotten us. But the fans have always been supporting us, loving us. During last year’s tour, I was really surprised. That’s why it’s hard to explain the kind of existence. They’re people who are very important.
Q: Do you have any words or requests for your fans?
YC: requests?
Q: Like don’t change your hearts…that kind.
YC: I feel it’s okay if they change their hearts. Really. Really, it’s okay.
Q: Is it because you have confidence that your fans won’t leave?
YC: It’s not confidence. But if I’m not around, telling fans “you have to wait for me” these kind of words, I feel it’s a bit selfish.
Q: Come back after I return from my enlistment… these kind of words?
YC: It’s okay if they don’t return too.
Q: Very modest…
YC: It’s not like this. Although I wish that after I return from my military duties, seeing my hard work, they would become interested in me again and support me once again. But I feel it’s not right to let everyone wait for me when I’m not around.
Q: Lastly, your words for your fans
YC: I will work hard. (He seriously thought for a while, then brightened up) Take care everyone. We’ll meet again.
Talking about Yuchun’s self-made song “Walking in the Spring with Her”. It’s not an official publicly released song. Yuchun said, “My Company hopes that they could release it, but personally, I don’t feel like releasing it.”
When asked about the reason, Yuchun said, “Isn’t it very special if you can only listen to the song during fan meetings and concerts?”
JoongAng Ilbo: JYJ’s Park preps for military duty
Singer and actor Park Yoo-chun of boy group JYJ will take a break from the entertainment scene as he is scheduled to enlist next month.
The celebrity spent his 20s singing on stage or acting in TV dramas and movies after making his debut as a member of the boy group TVXQ in 2003. He’s received many accolades during his career, most recently Best New Actor at the 51st Baeksang Arts Awards, one of the most prestigious entertainment awards in Korea, in May for his work on the 2014 film “Haemoo.”
Park will begin his military service as a civil officer for two years and four months on Aug. 27.
Before he parts ways with fans, he met with Ilgan Sports, an affiliate of the Korea JoongAng Daily, saying he wants to do another interview on the day he gets discharged, as he’ll be more comfortable then.
Q. You have about a month left before you enlist. How do you feel?
A. I don’t really feel particularly sad since I think I’m doing what everyone else is doing as well.
What did it feel like to see a fellow member who enlisted in the army before you did?
I met him recently because Jaejoong [another JYJ member] got out on a vacation from the army. Surprisingly, it didn’t feel like he was a soldier. He just looks more masculine with a nicer body. He became more charming.
But you are not really serving your military duty at a base. Weren’t you ordered to serve at a public office instead?
I hear serving in the army as a person with asthma is terrible. I tried really hard, took medicine and became healthier so that I could [serve my duty in the field]. I asked for a reassessment of my physical condition. I went to the designated hospital, but in the end, I was notified that I couldn’t. My life could be in danger, so I was denied.
Why do you want to serve in the field so bad?
If it’s something I inevitably have to do, wouldn’t it be better to really serve as a soldier while fulfilling my mandatory duty? I wanted to hide the fact that I have asthma. Plus, you get to serve four months less when you serve as a soldier, [while serving as a civil officer requires you to serve longer.]
You started as a singer. Any plans to release a solo album any time soon?
Not now – I feel like other members are more [talented] than I am at singing.
If you were to make an album, what kind would you make?
I wouldn’t want to do something too commercial. If I were to release an album of my own, I want to sing about my story. I do sometimes sing solo songs that I wrote during concerts, but I never released those as part of an album.
Any particular genre you prefer?
Hip-hop and rap. Because when you rap, you can really take enough time to tell your story.
Many celebrities have gone public with their relationships. What do you think about that?
I have changed my mind a bit about it. It depends on the situation, but if I go public with a person I’m dating, my partner will get hurt. So I’m more in favor of saying, “Let’s not announce our relationship when we’re in one.”
I’m currently not dating anyone. It is not easy dating someone while you keep it a secret.
You have been in the entertainment industry for about 12 years. What lies in your future?
I want to step down [from where I am] well. That doesn’t mean I’ll leave or anything, but I think I’m at my pinnacle as a singer and actor, and it would be hard to keep up where I am.
In that case, I need to find a way to step down well. That’s the homework I need to do from now on.
JYJ’s Park Yoo Chun tells fans to not forget JYJ at his Japan fan meeting
JYJ’s Park Yoo Chun held his ’2015 Park Yuchun Fan meeting Japan Tour -ALL ABOUT YU’ fan meeting on July 22nd and 23rd in Yokohama, where he interacted with over 24,000 fans.
The star began his fan meeting tour back in June with Osaka, before heading to Nagoya, and then Yokohama. The six fan meetings (2 in each city) drew more than 70,000 fans in total.
Park Yoo Chun made his entry by singing his self-composition ‘Walking With Her In Spring,’ and won a huge round of applause from fans. Fans screamed out his name, and Park Yoo Chun reciprocated by waving to them.
Thereafter, Park Yoo Chun reminisced about past memories with fans, and even shared some private photos. The highlight of the fan meeting was when Park Yoo Chun performed ‘Sunflower Promise,’ as a form of a song present for them.
The star did not rely on any translator, as he interacted with fans in fluent Japanese. He even did parodies of the Osaka dialect, and popular Japanese comedy shows, and brought much laughter to fans. Thereafter, he personally whipped up several dishes like rice rolls, takoyaki, and fried pancakes, and won much praise from fans for his effort.
Park Yoo Chun expressed, “I feel really blessed now. I can reminisce about all the times we were together, and I will keep today in my heart as well. I hope that everyone will not forget this day either. Even as time passes, JYJ will still stand here. Please remember me and JYJ. Thank you everyone, and please stay healthy.”
Finally, fans sang along with Park Yoo Chun to JYJ’s ‘You’re,’ with the former raising banners that wrote ‘we will wait for you’ to show their support.
Meanwhile, Park Yoo Chun will be in attendance on August 25th for ’2015 JYJ MEMBERSHIP WEEK’ in Seoul.

Once the fans started singing "You're" with him, Chunnie started crying so badly. I guess it's a good thing I wasn't there, 5 seconds into the video I was already a crying mess. We'll wait for you, Chun-ah T_T
I know many were very curious regarding what he had said, and what I know for sure is that at the end he asked the fans: "don't forget me, JYJ and Tohoshinki". He had been talking about the path he and JYJ had followed along with the fans, how things had changed etc, so I believe he ment that we shouldn't forget the history of Tohoshinki itself and JYJ's role in it, but he just as well could've been refering to the group. So really, this could be interpreted in various ways.

Shortly after being uploaded to YouTube, a video by one of K-pop's top groups was removed after fans pointed out a mistake made by one member.
The performance version of the music video for Super Junior's latest song "Devil" was uploaded to YouTube on July 22, but was re-uploaded to the website by SM Entertainment shortly after fans realized a mistake made by Kim Heechul during one of the choruses of the song. Fans commenting on the video and on Super Junior's official Facebook grew concerned over SM Entertainment's handling of Super Junior's release.
