Key on Sexy Brain Problematic Men (and Every Other Variety Shows He's been in) with Eng Sub

[pppum.livejournal.com]

On the November 29 broadcast of tvN‘s “Problematic Men,” Key reveals that he can repeat any dance after seeing it only once. At that, Jeon Hyun Moo challenges Key to copy a dance, which is reasonable until he starts a comic dance that is as confusing as he can make it. However, Key surprises everyone by not only copying Jeon Hyun Moo’s dance perfectly, but also elevating the dance to a higher level.

Key appeared in 3 episodes because it's the special edition: ( Preview ) ( Ep.39 ) ( Ep.40 )
*Ep.41 will be subbed too so you can follow this twitter account for more updates.

Sydney newspaper displays incredible taste in KPOP albums

[typhlogirl.livejournal.com]

This year Sydney hosted no less than four K-pop groups – all of them boy bands. Two more are due in February, when Boyfriend and JJCC​ play Carriageworks for Chinese New Year. But three of the best albums of the year were released by women: the Wonder Girls' '80s freestyle treat Reboot; Brown Eyed Girls' science-and-maths themed opus Basic and solo singer IU's self-produced mini album Chat-Shire. Japan's Kyary Pamyu Pamyu​ pulled an all-ages and all-tribes crowd when she toured here in 2014. Let South Korea's ladies show they can do the same.

Jay Park tries to clarify the meaning behind "2nd Thots", K-hiphop fandom continues to start shit

[kashiyaek.livejournal.com]

So a bit of background story; there are rumors going around in the K-hiphop fandom that Stefanie Michova, Beenzino's current girlfriend, has a thing for Korean rappers. ~~Rumor has it~~ she used to date Dumbfoundead and via him, she met Jay Park who she dated after. And via Jay, got introduced to more people aka Beenzino who she is currently dating. As far as I know, there is no trustworthy source that can confirm if Stefanie has actually dated Dumbfoundead or Jay Park before. The rappers themselves are super vague about it too. Either way, a part of the international K-hiphop fandom believes it and suspects that Jay Park's new song "2nd Thots" is about Stefanie Michova. If you're confused, read more here.

However, Jay Park denies it:

yikes. #mess @ all of this. tbh i think this is all going a bit too far like i dislike stefanie (i'm not forgetting her asian doll collection bullshit, girl seems to have a fetish) but as far as i'm aware the whole "dfd > jay park > beenzino" came from a khh tumblr anon?? (x) though if someone actually has some legit sources to add as contribution, feel free to do so!

P.S. omg i'm so sorry mods! 3rd time is the charm right orz

Super Junior’s Ryeowook Confirms Solo Debut in 2016

[carmine-pink.livejournal.com]

In a recent interview with PlayDB, Super Junior member Ryeowook confirmed he will be making his solo debut in 2016!

The interview centered on his role as Christopher in “The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time,” and Ryeowook talked about the challenges of his first play. However, he also mentioned his plans for an upcoming solo album when the interviewer asked about his plans going forward.

Ryeowook answered, “I want to show myself as the singer Ryeowook before I have to enlist next year, so I’m currently preparing for that. My album should be coming out soon, too. In the end, I just want to show whatever image I can on stage, whether that image be as a singer, as a variety talent, or as an actor. I really feel that it would be great if everyone could be happy because of me.”

Are you excited to see Ryeowook finally make his solo debut?

Looking forward to this! And also a KRY/Yesung album
