So we did end up getting our comprehensive interview after all (this one includes the shorter part 1 so it's the whole interview without cuts) and these are the BEST questions/answers we've had so far imo! It's just a really random interview but it's entertaining lol.
And everyone did speak English in various amounts (even though they had a translator available)!

Chiyori Nakanishi is a member of the Japanese girl group AKB48 and is currently a participant in the reality show Produce 48. Some South Korean netizens dug up a joke she made in 2014 on episode 49 of the reality show HKT no Odekake ("HKT Goes Out"). While the girls from HKT48 are visiting South Korea, Nakanishi (who was a member at the time of filming before being transferred to AKB48) comments jokingly, "It smells like kimchi!" right after leaving the airport. Natsumi Matsuoka (another Produce 48 contestant) playfully slaps her, saying, "That's not true!", and Chihiro Anai adds, "It doesn't!"
Even though Nakanishi meant it as a joke, "kimchi" is a common racial slur used against Koreans and many people are understandably upset by it. Nakanishi, nor her management, have not yet addressed a statement surrounding this incident.
Nakanishi came in at #39 last week in Produce 48, but there's a possibility that this controversy will affect her in the coming weeks and basically Milkshake Duck her.

The song is ok, I don't get the MV, but the shots with Hyuna in the bathtub are really gif worthy (that sounds creepy, not intended). She looks gorgeous.
goshipgurl.livejournal.comEventhough Germany got kicked out of the Worldcup early (partly because of Korea), Football hottie Mats Hummels somehow went viral "after one of their WorldCup players (Kim Young Kwon) told the story of Mats going out of his way to exchange jerseys with a positive attitude, even after the disappointing result." The official US twitter account for FC Bayern (the club he's playing) then asked him if he would prefer swapping jerseys with BTS or BLACKPINK, to which OP's bae choose the girls.

‘God Yoo’ Yoo Jae-suk is finally entering tvN. He will be working with producer Kim Min-suk, who recently moved to tvN from KBS, and follow comedian Cho Sae-ho, who he worked with on MBC ‘Infinite Challenge’.

Okay...I want to know what hold Cho Sae Ho has on Yoo Jae Suk. Because YJS has been supporting him for so long now, and Sae Ho sucks. He sucks so bad. Soooo bad. I personally remember him sucking so bad since at 2013, when YJS brought him to IC for the Xmas show. I'm thinking maybe a it's some sort of curse? Because a gypsy once told me I had a curse on me.

On July 18, SBS confirmed that Jeong Se-woon, Weki Meki Kim Do-yeon, NCT Lucas, and Momoland Yeonwoo have joined the cast for the next rendition of “Law of the Jungle.”
The Kpop idols, except Yeonwoo, are reportedly apart of the first batch of adventures. Jung, Kim, and Lucas will travel to an island near the Maldives in the Indian Ocean where they will conquer various challenges to survive.
This announcement comes on the tail of earlier reports that confirmed the appearance of several athletes. According to the earlier articles, Olympian Lee Sang-hwa, world champion Kwak Yoon-gy, and badminton player Lee Yong-dae will all test their mettle in the jungle.
With this unique blend of athletes and idols, the next “Law of the Jungle,” is already raising expectations.

Acclaimed director Kim Jee-woon's long-anticipated sci-fi thriller "Inrang" was partly unveiled to media on Monday. Set in 2029 with the two Koreas having agreed to launch a unified government, South Korean police launches a special unit to stop an anti-reunification terrorist group called "Sect." Feeling threatened by the growing influence of the formidable police unit, the state intelligence agency plots to destroy it. As they engage in a veiled battle, rumors that the unit has secret human weapons called "wolves" spread quickly across the country.
"The title 'Inrang' comes from the Korean word meaning 'werewolf.' In the movie, you can see a man who is raised to be a human weapon but is torn between conflicting values inside of him through the main character named Im Joong-kyung," Kim said during a press conference to promote the forthcoming film at a Seoul theater.
It is a Korean live-action adaptation of the Japanese animated film masterpiece "The Wolf Brigade" by Hiroyuki Okiura. Kim said it was a "reckless decision" to remake the animated work but he made every effort not to disappoint the original movie's fans.

Dating shows in vogue in Korea
2018-07-18 05:42 pmwaves-of-light.livejournal.com
Lee Hyun, a chef in his late 40s, says he argued recently with his mother about a TV dating show. "My mother saw me watching the show and said I should stop looking at others dating, go outside and mind my own business. That remark set off emotional attacks on each other," he said. Lee has been single for years. "It's fun having guessing games myself of who matches with whom and seeing the changes of heart. It's almost like watching a real-time romance drama."

Do you watch these shows, Omona? I've only watched a little of Romance Package, but I found it really boring. But I don't watch dating shows in general.

Miss Korea 1988, actress Kim Sung-ryung, 51, who headed the judging panel for the 2018 Miss Korea Pageant, revealed on Instagram how she felt after the contest ended on Wednesday.
"Congratulations. I cheer you for courage and challenge (of Miss Korea contestants,)" the actress wrote. "I was quivering." The actress also unveiled a photo of her with the contestants.
Dubbed one of the most beautiful Miss Koreas, Kim was also selected as the No. 1 wannabe of the 2018 candidates. "Despite being an actress now, my 'root' is Miss Korea," Kim said during the contest. "I am proud to see many Miss Korea winners taking active roles in a wide range of fields, and hope candidates for the 2018 contest can show off the power of women too."
Singer Yura of K-pop girl band Girl's Day, who hosted the competition with comedian Park Soo-hong, said: "It is my honor to join the flagship contest of Korea that seeks out beauty."
For the 2018 Miss Korea Pageant, Kim Soo-min, 23, was crowned Korea's most beautiful woman.
Posting because Kim Sung Ryung is 51?!? Mother fucker. She has been looking the same for as long as I can remember. The 2018 winner, Kim Soo Min is to her left. Favorite Miss Korea? Lee Honey 4ever!
