2AM’s Changmin Expected to Move on From JYP to Big Hit Entertainment

[horichansenpai.livejournal.com]

Earlier today there was a report that 2AM member Changmin will be signing an exclusive contract with Big Hit Entertainment now that his contract with JYP Entertainment has ended.

According to the report by Star News, Changmin’s contract with JYP ended last month, July 10, after seven years with the agency and he has decided not to renew his contract. Instead, he will be signing with Big Hit Entertainment, home to idol boy group BTS, which has previously managed Changmin while he was under JYP.

A new report has come out, however, that clarifies that Changmin is still in talks with Big Hit and nothing official has been decided yet.

Earlier this year, the 2AM members decided to go their separate ways in terms of agencies with Jinwoon signing with Mystic89, Seulong signing with Sidus HQ, and Jo Kwon staying with JYP.

BtoB Minhyuk & Heota channeling Dr Jekyll & Mr Hyde in Geeks' "Wash Away" cover

[imienazwisko.livejournal.com]

original song: Geeks - Wash Away

As if wetting my heart
Even the falling rain sounds are dry
Even if what you said were lies,
I still want you
You probably don’t know my heart that feels like this
I wash away my memories today too

A rainbow that was more beautiful because it was us and not you and I
After the rain stops, I see our end now, our sandglass
Now the curtains have fallen down and I’m standing blankly alone on top of an empty stage, one man who foolishly only has regrets left
You wrecked me, who can’t go any where without you, till the end
and like an expiration date passing, our insides all rot
Alright, I’ll get lost, live well. Even if we do cross paths, pass by like we didn’t see each other
Even if I make this promise, what do I do about getting sore feet without even going halfway in

Wash away

You and I that are like split lips, that’s why we can’t stick together well
It’s quite strange, why does rain come from my eyes
It’s like an endless monsoon
A guy like me can’t hold onto or let go of you
A foolish guy who just feels out of place
The scars you have left are too deep,
I can’t detoxify them, you’re severe poison
I should forget you now, that’s what I should do, I should let go of the string that I’m barely holding onto
That’s what I should do, your hand, memories, regrets, everything
Ah, even if I hit my chest in this frustration and try to hold it in, I’m hurting and hating
Why can’t you look at my eyes, why can’t you look at me who’s always looking at

Wash away

Did you even love me
Did you, did you
Did you even love me
Did you, did you

It hurts, this wind. Quite bad, that person
It probably won’t happen, the words that killed me ‘Live well’
It was all a misunderstanding, I didn’t know well
Whatever happened, it was only you for me
You fool, why don’t you know me, me who only has you
You know me better
I want to see you, want to smile
I want to have you and just embrace you endlessly
I don’t like it, I really hate me acting like this
Even as I erase it, empty it, spill it, and spit it out, I still remember you again
A scar that’s sill deep to me, that’s you
Please, look back at me who’s like this, look back at me
Come back, come back, come back to the days where we were happy
Come back, come back, please come back again to me

Wash Away

When ‘fitting in’ precedes quest for justice

[justkyhdding.livejournal.com]

Trigger warning for mentions of sexual abuse

Many scientists and psychologists have pointed out that our innate desire to “fit in” with others as human beings -- our evolution demands we belong to the tribe -- has been the major driving force behind our civilization. But it was also cited as a major factor causing human atrocities, including massacres and bullying.

What do we do when someone we love, or someone who belongs to our family or community, causes harm to the lives of strangers?

Such questions entered my mind as the congresswomen of the ruling Saenuri Party have been collectively silent over the rape allegations against their fellow party lawmaker Sim Hag-bong this week.

Further, it led to questions over whether it was unfair to demand politicians to fight against this particular human nature in such a case of an alleged crime, leastwise an ethical lapse.
