I dont really understand whats going on these days but it looks like 2pm is going through real shit.
It seems like a tsunami hit the kpop world and instead of mourning, everyone else is getting so agitated and refuse to accept it. I mean, a tsunami is for real, and so is jaebum leaving the group. Just accept it and move on! They shouldnt really do this to the rest of the members. I mean, 2PM is not just about jay himself. Think about the hardwork and effort the other members put in, its really unfair to throw the whole group away just because of jaebum.
You know, im not a great jaebum fan but i really do adore him because of his talent and his humbleness. Its definetely saddening to see anyone of them go, especially leader jaebum. But i believe there must be a real serious cause that led them to make such decision. So lets just wait for the cause to be revealed and hopefully it would a convincing one. At the same time, MOVE ON AND STOP DESTROYING THINGS! Its useless anyway!
When the fuck are these fans going to grow up. There are many other things to do in life. They ought to really learn what is true Love & Respect.
“Because of the popularity, at one time I wanted to drop out of Super Junior, but now it’s an important name, one I couldn’t shake off if I tried.”
This is Kim Heechul, whose name became known through the popular idol group Super Junior. But if you take a look, his debut project was actually KBS 2TV’s 2005 Sharp 2 [반올림2], which means that the label “singer-turned-actor” is not accurate to describe him.
Therefore, Kim Heechul’s return to television in the new SBS weekend drama Love You Ten Million Times [천만번 사랑해] isn’t a deviation from his course but actually a return to his original profession. He makes his return a year and seven months after his last television role, the SBS drama Golden Bride [황금신부], which wrapped its broadcast run on February 3, 2008.
An honest confession: “At one time, I wanted to leave Super Junior”
Kim Heechul once wanted to leave Super Junior. They’re one of the mainstays of the pop industry and receive a lot of love, but he thought the group was like clothing that didn’t suit him.
“When I look back at the past several years, I was a really willful kid. I even kicked up a fuss over why I had to sing given that I debuted as an actor. It was a frequent occurrence to have to suddenly go onstage for Super Junior activities as I was shooting a drama. So I wanted to leave Super Junior. And it’s not like I’m an outstanding singer, truthfully…”
In the past few years, Kim Heechul has felt, “I want to quit being a singer and focus on acting.”
Unable to make up his mind, his relationships became estranged from the other members of Super Junior. The younger members began to look askance at their contrary hyung Heechul, and the distance grew between them.
But ah… the Super Junior members caused tears in the eyes of Kim Heechul, who describes himself as having been selfish.
“One day, I went to the practice studio after not going for a while because I was filming a drama, and the other members said, ‘Hyung, we set aside a spot for you when we practiced. You can just come in later.’ I had only thought of myself, but it gave me a heavy heart to see them looking after me. [Smiles]”
He was caught by some unknowable emotion that welled up from deep inside. Kim Heechul ran off to the restroom to shed some tears.
“The tough times have passed for Super Junior… now teamwork is best!”
That’s how Kim Heechul was moved by Super Junior’s love. That’s the moment that his wandering heart decided to make Super Junior his eternal home.
“I think the tough times have passed now. I’ve turned over a new leaf and opened my troubled heart to them frankly, and now I don’t know how I’d live without those guys. That’s why we even went on a trip recently. We all stripped naked and ran around and tore down the walls in our heart that had formed unknowingly.”
He boasted, “Now the teamwork in Super Junior is the strongest in the world.” Perhaps that’s why when talking of his acting return, he also talks of his pride in the members along with his new project.
“I once wanted to leave the team to go act, but I have to be loyal to the members who treat me so well. Hahaha. Super Junior is my eternal home. I want to live happily singing with the group, acting, doing MC work, and being active in many different areas.”
Kim Heechul closed by adding, “Acting isn’t a side project, but a longtime dream for me. In the way that I showed my personality onstage as a singer, I want to show colorful acting as well.”
AHH, the super junior LOVEEEE! :D Makes me so so so warm and tingly all inside!

Mighty Mouth "We get strength whenever we're on stage with Nicole"
Mighty Mouth expressed their gratitude to their featuring partner, Kara's Nicole (Jung Nicole).
Nicole has been Mighty Mouth's third partner for their title track "Love class", since August 26th, and has since performed with them.
Kara has been close friends with Mighty Mouth since before their debut, hence the 'Maskara' (mouth kara) line. Because of this, Nicole's performance with Mighty Mouth compared to their other partners has been noticeable, with her being more bright and lively.
From a recent call between Newsen and Mighty Mouth, they have told us, "Thanks to Nicole, it feels great when we're on stage. Our other partners have also worked hard, but Nicole has been the most passionate." They also said, "As she suggest ideas to improve ourselves and work hard on our performances is something we find cute and are thankful for.
By recruiting Han Ye Seul as a featuring and gathering interest, Mighty Mouth's "Love Class" has since had After School's UEE, and Four Minute's Hyunah as featurings on stage.
Mighty Mouth's "Love Class" has since been doing well on music charts, admist the many idol groups. Kara has been keeping their dignity as a girl group with they 2nd album double hits, 'Wanna', and 'Mister'.
TVXQ / DBSK / Tohoshinki members Xiah, Micky, and Jaejoong were trying to make efforts to resolve the issues with SM Entertainment behind the scenes but it seems all talks of coming to an agreement have broken apart. Korean Media Outlet Newsen recently had a phone conversation with the court overseeing the issue.
In the phone conversation, the court stated that it'll be all up to them to come up with the resolution as both sides despite talks of resolution, will not budge from their initial stances. They continued by stating that they're thoroughly reviewing all the papers, documents, and evidence given. After this thorough investigation, both parties will be notified of the decision. The Court stated that they don't know when exactly they'll come up with the decision but that it should be sometime this month.
As the talks have broken down, it seems there's no chance of resolution outside the courts. Hopefully the courts come up with a fair and firm decision

Goo Hara’s Shocking Waist Measurements Revealed!
KARA's Goo Hara has recently grabbed the interests of netizens with her impressive 20 inch (~ 51 cm) waistline.
Ever since the release of their album 'Revolution', KARA has recently been performing 'Mister' while wearing belly shirts, and Goo Hara especially has been a hot topic among netizens for her tiny 'ant-waist'.
KARA's representatives stated, 'Due to her very small body and thin bones, Hara looks very skinny. She has always had a skinny waist, but the group's recent diet for their comeback and their busy schedules further reduced her waist. Recent measurements have shown that she has a waistline of just a little less than 21 inches.'
Hara also recently stated shyly, 'I can't gain much weight because I have such a busy schedule. Fans often call me ant-waist. It's a bit embarrassing at times.'

JYP's STATEMENT "2PM will continue with 6 members"
JYP finally made a statement on JYPE homepage :
I talked to JYPE staffs, 2PM members, and Jaebeom about our future plans. First of all, although many people have sent their encouraging words to Jaebeom, he hasn’t changed his mind; thinking he made a huge mistake. He said that he is still very sorry and too ashamed to be on the stage. He also told me that since other 2PM members have worked so hard, they should not be affected by this in any negative ways. That’s why he left 2PM so quickly.
I think the same way as Jaebeom. The reason why I didn't stop him from leaving is because I thought whether Jay being in 2PM or not now won’t be that big deal when you look at his life as a whole. Some think 4 years of his hard working has been destroyed, but his skills that were built up in 4 years are still remained in his body.
If Jaebeom receives a chance to grow up and become more mature by this incident, he will be able to fly even further later on. As criticism against Jay was way too harsh, requesting to revoke Jay's resignation is asking for too much as well. It’s my role to respect his opinion wanting to have his time alone apart from the stage, and help him later when he says he wants to be on the stage again.
I think you should give him supports by then. Again, I apologize for not being able to manage and protect him well. We'll try our best to not make this happen again
Thank you again, 2PM will continue their schedule with 6 members as it was planned JYP

Super Junior arrives in Hong Kong; Kangin avoids the media
Super Junior arrived in Hong Kong yesterday in preparation of the Hong Kong leg of their Super Show 2 Live Tour, and Kangin who was involved in a case of drunken brawling did not appear at the press conference, even though he’d touched down together with the rest of his members.
Another member, Kibum, on the other hand, did not take part in the concert because of his injury.
During yesterday’s press conference, the media’s main focus was on what the other members felt about Kangin’s involvement in the drunken brawl case. Heechul, who donned a facemask throughout, replied that Super Junior will always work hard, and they thanked everyone for their concern.
Super Junior even showed off a few lines of Cantonese, in the spirit of doing as Romans do in Rome, but unfortunately no one could understand a word of what they were saying.
All 12 members will have their own special stages during the concert, and Ryeowook revealed that he would be cross-dressing as a woman, and Donghae will perform a song while riding on a bicycle.

CROSS DRESSING? i think i havent seen ryeowook crossdress and i thought he should.hehe..donghae riding on a bicycle? okay, this sounds like a circus to me.

KBS boycotts YG Entertainment – f(x) Sulli the reason behind it? (warning : extremely bad translation)
It has been known that YG Entertainment has been boycotted by KBS 2FM. The radio station will boycott all appearances by YG singers. This was sparked off by a sudden no-show by GDragon on Sukira on 15th September, and KBS 2FM had refused to play any YG singers’ song on the station for the whole of that day.
And it was questioned if the dispute between the YG Ent and KBS 2FM was due to GDragon mentioning f(x) Sulli in his earlier radio show appearance.
▶ Was f(x) Sulli the problem for no-show on radio show?
KBS 2FM said on 18th September, “On 15th September, with the sudden non-participation of GDragon for our radio show Sukira, we have gone against the trust given by listeners. With that we have decided to put a boycott against YG singers indefinitely.”
On the 15th itself, KBS 2FM did not aire any of the songs by YG singers.
There were originally plans for GDragon to appear on ‘Super Junior Kiss The Radio (Sukira)’ show, and the production team to Sukira said, “GDragon was originally set to appear on the show on 15th September, but they suddenly said that they will not have him on the show on the 10th. And even with the request of our team, they have broken their promise and did not let him go on the show.”
Even though Sukira’s production team has tried to persuade for GDragon to appear on the show by posting on their homepage, YG managers did not even apologise or give an explanation to GDragon’s no-show after that.
One of the producers said, “YG Ent said that when GDragon were asked the question “Which junior girlgroup singers do you think is the cutest?” and he answered f(x) Sulli on 9th September on one of the radio shows on 9th September, it became a problem and it is difficult to have him go on radio show. But in the schedule shared by GDragon and his fans, it was stated that he will be appearing on Sukira” ▶ YG speaks up
While YG spoke up about KBS 2FM’s boycott against them as being “unfair” to them.
A YG representative said on 18th September, “GDragon went on to KBS 2FM ‘Up The Volume’ for his first radio show programme,and 2NE1 also appear on Sukira – we have been on good terms with KBS radio, we are in shock and disbelief to have received such a notification from them. Even though we did receive requests for GDragon to go on Sukira, we did not 100% agree or promise that he will go on the show.”
Yang Hyun Seok also talked about this during an interview on 18th September, “We have clearly stated our stand that it is difficult to have GDragon on the radio show on 10th and 14th September. We have decided that it is not good to have GDragon talk too much about personal stuff and had decided that he will not go on radio shows.” He also stressed that GDragon has not gone on any other radio shows after the 2 radio shows he did at the beginning period of his solo debut.
He added, “To get boycotted by a broadcast company, isn’t the measures too harsh?”
But KBS 2FM had stated, “The boycott only appears on radio show, it has nothing to do with KBS TV.”
Meanwhile, GDragon will continue to appear on KBS Music Bank next week.

Jessica, "I didn't know Krystal would debut this fast"
9-girl group SNSD's Jessica(20) gave an encouraging message to her younger sister Krystal(15) who made her debut through the 5-girl rookie group f(x).
On the 15th, after the press conference about the production for the musical 'Legally Blonde' at the Seoul Samsungdong Coex Artium in the afternoon, Jessica showed her worries about her younger sister during the meeting with Star News.
"Krystal made her debut at a younger age than me. Making an early debut can be a good thing but I'm still worried" said Jessica, caring as a older sister, not as a senior singer.
"However, Krystal, being a strong girl, will do a good job"; "I also heard from manager oppa last year that she was doing great", said Jessica with a smile on her face.
Then she said, "Actually, before I started my activities, I didn't have time to spend with her so I didn't know she could sing, dance and talk so well like that"; "Learning/practicing dance and sing in a fast time to the point of being capable of debuting already never crossed my mind", feeling proud.
"I hope Krystal can work hard in the future like how she is doing now"; "Surely, similar aspects between us will appear because we are sisters, not because she is trying to follow her older sister. But with each one of us carrying a different charm, it would be good if hers could be explored.", requested Jessica.
On a side note, 'Legally Blonde', which it has the same name with the Hollywood movie, it's originally a musical from Broadway. Jessica will play the female protagonist Elle Woods together with actress Lee Haniu and actor Kim Jiwoo, making their performance on the November, 14th at the Coex Atrium.
I have received much shock from what Jaebum wrote 4 years ago to his friend. Could it have been another celebrity, I myself would have felt much anger, resentment, and abandonment at his words. But I have known Jaebum for so long that those words are not surprising to me.
I already knew Jaebum was that kind of child.
When Jaebum first came to Korea 4 years ago, he was very rebellious and out of line. He laughed at Korea and belittled his fellow trainees, even going so far as to see me as ‘easy.’ I believe he thought that being a Korean celebrity was something to laugh at. He was a boy that wanted to b-boy in the streets. He fought with company employees, his dance instructors, and made threatening statements.
At times, he even said that he did not like JYP Ent., and would name another rival company, wishing to be sent there instead.
But what made us surprised even more was that when asked whether he had the guts to succeed, he said “We could succeed if we don’t receive JYP’s music.”
At this point, employees wondered why we were keeping such a rebellious boy.
This is why his words 4 years ago are not suprising.
Then why would we keep such a kid?
I love rebellious children. Rather than children that are nice up front but are calculating and evil behind my back, I love children that are rebellious up to my face. I loved the fact that he showed his emotions straight up. It gave me hope. Who would have the guts to utter such words to my face? To say that his failure depended on my bad music? I thought that it was funny.
I believed that rebellious children had too much energy, just no place to express that energy. Or they never met someone that would trust them enough to show them the correct path. I wanted to help this person go on stage and feel the energy and joy. As long as I could instill within him trust and love.
To Jaebum, there are only two types of people. His family, and those that are not his family. He loves his family more than I could ever know. The reason he talks about money in interviews is not to buy nice clothes, it is to pay back his family, who always works hard for him. That’s why he ran the path of becoming a singer.
He was rebellious, but he excelled in training.
I saw this and thought, if only I could make him think of my company, his fellow trainees, this company as his family. if only.
So one day, I told him “Jaebum, someone is not a family only because they share the same blood. Please open your heart to them first. Then others can be your family too.”
Through these efforts, he began to change.. He began to hug his fellow trainees, start conversations with company employees, and began enjoying his time on the stage.
He finally began to express his energy on stage and began to shine through singing and dancing.
I chose him as the team’s leader. The rest of the 6 really believed in him and followed his lead.
He always trained with them and always thought of his younger members before him..
After his debut, he felt a change in his heart at the news reporters and attentions that showed him in a positive light and began showing affection.
He was touched at by the hearts of his fans.
Good people, good friends, good fans… good music.. through all this, he began to change.
But as things began to go up, like a sad movie scene, his entry from 4 years ago was released.
He was so sorry. To his 2PM brothers, to me, to his company employees, to his fans.. and to nobody more than to his Koreans.
He thought to himself that if he stayed any longer, his brothers would only get more hurt. He told me he did not have the confidence to get up on stage.
I knew what he was saying too well to hold him back.
If I were him, I would have mdae the same mistage.
And so he left.
His last email to me said “I’VE BEEN A LITTLE PUNK IN THE PAST. I JUST WANT TO LET YO UKNOW THAT IT WAS A LIFE CHANGING EXPERIENCE. IT MADE ME A MUCH BETTER MUCH STRONGER PERSON AND I’M THANKFUL FOR EVERYTHING YOU HAVE DONE FOR ME. REAL TALK.”
My heart was ripping. It hurt. But knowing what Koreans would feel at his words, an immense sense of betrayal, I could not say anything.
But what I can do for him is to tell everyone that he showed on TV is not fake. He might have been rebellious but never fake. He never hid his true emotions. He was always up front, straight up… and that is something that can never change.
I know the public and the fans and I am listening to your opinions. But the most important thing is that Jaebum is not 2PM’s Park Jaebum but a child, a teenager Jaebum.
I genuinely wish for you all to hold his decision true.
I apologize once more.
JYP
No no, we cant let him go this way. That fucking bitch should go drink vomit.
Park Jaebum and JYP confirm his departure from 2PM
Tuesday, September 8, 2009
On September 8th 11:59PM, Jaebum wrote on his fancafe
"Hello, I'm 2PM's JaeBum. I'm sorry for giving you my last greeting through this letter. I think it will be hard for me to see you all on stage because of my sorry heart. I'm really sorry to everyone, and I'm even more sorry to the fans who have shown me love. From today, I will leave 2PM. 2PM boys, I'm really sorry to the boys and I'm sorry I couldn't be strong as a leader and a hyung and have to leave like this. However, I hope you will be more cool and charming. Again, I'm sorry."
Jaebum said "I am sorry to everyone, especially to the fans who loved me and stuck by me. From today I will break away from 2PM" JAebum finally wrote "I am very sorry to the 2PM guys and to others that I couldn't be a good enough leader and hyung. I apologize again."
JYP Entertainment also confirmed through a phone interview with Newsen that the departure of Jaebum from 2PM is indeed true. Hearing about his departure from 2PM, one of the biggest and most popular idol groups, there was lots of commotion and distress from netizens.
One person said "Jaebum's actions were indeed wrong but he did apologize and did all he could. I am very worried about how the fans will react."
Jaebum wrote the things about Korea back in 2005 on his myspace.
I FUCKING CANT STAND NETIZENS. ARE THEY HAPPY NOW? __________________________________
Antis create suicide petition for Jaebom
It has recently been revealed that 2PM's leader Jaebum will no longer be on Nodaji and will stop all activities until his Myspace controversy clears. But apparently, that wasn't enough for angry netizens. Some antis wanted him to quit show biz altogether, some wanted him out of 2PM, and then there are those antis just wanted him to disappear...
...And thus, a petition titled "Jaebum Should Commit Suicide" was created on Agora, one of Daum's portal sites . Over 3000 people have signed this petition, leaving comments such as "Go back to America", "I'm disgusted by you", and "Jaebum will be the next Yoo Seung-joon" before it was taken down on September 7, around 4PM (Korean time).
But things seem to be looking up, because another petition entitled "Please Forgive Our Jaebum Just This Once" on Agora replaced the other hate-filled one and has gained over 6,000 signatures in two days.
Right, they are asking someone to go and die now? Totally reflect bad of koreans. what kind of morales do they actually have? At least Jay is freed from all these nonsense now.
I dont really understand whats going on these days but it looks like 2pm is going through real shit.
It seems like a tsunami hit the kpop world and instead of mourning, everyone else is getting so agitated and refuse to accept it. I mean, a tsunami is for real, and so is jaebum leaving the group. Just accept it and move on! They shouldnt really do this to the rest of the members. I mean, 2PM is not just about jay himself. Think about the hardwork and effort the other members put in, its really unfair to throw the whole group away just because of jaebum.
You know, im not a great jaebum fan but i really do adore him because of his talent and his humbleness. Its definetely saddening to see anyone of them go, especially leader jaebum. But i believe there must be a real serious cause that led them to make such decision. So lets just wait for the cause to be revealed and hopefully it would a convincing one. At the same time, MOVE ON AND STOP DESTROYING THINGS! Its useless anyway!
When the fuck are these fans going to grow up. There are many other things to do in life. They ought to really learn what is true Love & Respect.

Kim Heechul closed by adding, “Acting isn’t a side project, but a longtime dream for me. In the way that I showed my personality onstage as a singer, I want to show colorful acting as well.”
AHH, the super junior LOVEEEE! :D Makes me so so so warm and tingly all inside!

Mighty Mouth's "Love Class" has since been doing well on music charts, admist the many idol groups. Kara has been keeping their dignity as a girl group with they 2nd album double hits, 'Wanna', and 'Mister'.
TVXQ / DBSK / Tohoshinki members Xiah, Micky, and Jaejoong were trying to make efforts to resolve the issues with SM Entertainment behind the scenes but it seems all talks of coming to an agreement have broken apart. Korean Media Outlet Newsen recently had a phone conversation with the court overseeing the issue.
In the phone conversation, the court stated that it'll be all up to them to come up with the resolution as both sides despite talks of resolution, will not budge from their initial stances. They continued by stating that they're thoroughly reviewing all the papers, documents, and evidence given. After this thorough investigation, both parties will be notified of the decision. The Court stated that they don't know when exactly they'll come up with the decision but that it should be sometime this month.
As the talks have broken down, it seems there's no chance of resolution outside the courts. Hopefully the courts come up with a fair and firm decision

Goo Hara’s Shocking Waist Measurements Revealed!
KARA's Goo Hara has recently grabbed the interests of netizens with her impressive 20 inch (~ 51 cm) waistline.
Ever since the release of their album 'Revolution', KARA has recently been performing 'Mister' while wearing belly shirts, and Goo Hara especially has been a hot topic among netizens for her tiny 'ant-waist'.
KARA's representatives stated, 'Due to her very small body and thin bones, Hara looks very skinny. She has always had a skinny waist, but the group's recent diet for their comeback and their busy schedules further reduced her waist. Recent measurements have shown that she has a waistline of just a little less than 21 inches.'
Hara also recently stated shyly, 'I can't gain much weight because I have such a busy schedule. Fans often call me ant-waist. It's a bit embarrassing at times.'

JYP's STATEMENT "2PM will continue with 6 members"
JYP finally made a statement on JYPE homepage :
I talked to JYPE staffs, 2PM members, and Jaebeom about our future plans. First of all, although many people have sent their encouraging words to Jaebeom, he hasn’t changed his mind; thinking he made a huge mistake. He said that he is still very sorry and too ashamed to be on the stage. He also told me that since other 2PM members have worked so hard, they should not be affected by this in any negative ways. That’s why he left 2PM so quickly.
I think the same way as Jaebeom. The reason why I didn't stop him from leaving is because I thought whether Jay being in 2PM or not now won’t be that big deal when you look at his life as a whole. Some think 4 years of his hard working has been destroyed, but his skills that were built up in 4 years are still remained in his body.
If Jaebeom receives a chance to grow up and become more mature by this incident, he will be able to fly even further later on. As criticism against Jay was way too harsh, requesting to revoke Jay's resignation is asking for too much as well. It’s my role to respect his opinion wanting to have his time alone apart from the stage, and help him later when he says he wants to be on the stage again.
I think you should give him supports by then. Again, I apologize for not being able to manage and protect him well. We'll try our best to not make this happen again
Thank you again, 2PM will continue their schedule with 6 members as it was planned JYP
Big Bang - SNSD, No.1 popularity for male and female singers for the second half of the year
Big Bang and So Nyuh Shi Dae took the first places for the category of "singers" in an entertainer popularity ranking for the second half of the year.
From the 25th to the 31st of August, the results for the "Entertainer Popularity Survey" were determined by the Leespiar Research Institute with the participation of 1,320 males and females with an age range of 13~65 in 5 cities from around the country (metropolitan area, Busan, Daegu, Gwangju, Daejeon).
So Nyuh Shi Dae took the first place (31.8%) in the female category in this time's survey overwhelmingly through their new song "Tell Me Your Wish" amidst the rise and battle of the girl groups and the girl group wave while Wonder Girls haven't had any activities in Korea due to their activities in the U.S..
Following SNSD, 2NE1 ranked 2nd (15.8%) due to the success of a continuous hit song parade while Lee Hyori ranked 3rd (15.3%), Wonder Girls, who are pushing on their U.S. activities, 4th, and Son Dambi 5th (10.2%).
In the male category, Big Bang surpassed 2PM by an eyelash and went up to the first place.
The representative idol group Big Bang maintained 23.5% and surpassed group 2PM, which maintained 21.7%. The 3rd place went to world star Rain (16.9%), the 4th place to Lee Seunggi (10.4%) and the 5th place to DBSK (5.2%).

Super Junior arrives in Hong Kong; Kangin avoids the media
Super Junior arrived in Hong Kong yesterday in preparation of the Hong Kong leg of their Super Show 2 Live Tour, and Kangin who was involved in a case of drunken brawling did not appear at the press conference, even though he’d touched down together with the rest of his members.
Another member, Kibum, on the other hand, did not take part in the concert because of his injury.
During yesterday’s press conference, the media’s main focus was on what the other members felt about Kangin’s involvement in the drunken brawl case. Heechul, who donned a facemask throughout, replied that Super Junior will always work hard, and they thanked everyone for their concern.
Super Junior even showed off a few lines of Cantonese, in the spirit of doing as Romans do in Rome, but unfortunately no one could understand a word of what they were saying.
All 12 members will have their own special stages during the concert, and Ryeowook revealed that he would be cross-dressing as a woman, and Donghae will perform a song while riding on a bicycle.

CROSS DRESSING? i think i havent seen ryeowook crossdress and i thought he should.hehe..donghae riding on a bicycle? okay, this sounds like a circus to me.

KBS boycotts YG Entertainment – f(x) Sulli the reason behind it? (warning : extremely bad translation)
It has been known that YG Entertainment has been boycotted by KBS 2FM. The radio station will boycott all appearances by YG singers. This was sparked off by a sudden no-show by GDragon on Sukira on 15th September, and KBS 2FM had refused to play any YG singers’ song on the station for the whole of that day.
And it was questioned if the dispute between the YG Ent and KBS 2FM was due to GDragon mentioning f(x) Sulli in his earlier radio show appearance.
▶ Was f(x) Sulli the problem for no-show on radio show?
KBS 2FM said on 18th September, “On 15th September, with the sudden non-participation of GDragon for our radio show Sukira, we have gone against the trust given by listeners. With that we have decided to put a boycott against YG singers indefinitely.”
On the 15th itself, KBS 2FM did not aire any of the songs by YG singers.
There were originally plans for GDragon to appear on ‘Super Junior Kiss The Radio (Sukira)’ show, and the production team to Sukira said, “GDragon was originally set to appear on the show on 15th September, but they suddenly said that they will not have him on the show on the 10th. And even with the request of our team, they have broken their promise and did not let him go on the show.”
Even though Sukira’s production team has tried to persuade for GDragon to appear on the show by posting on their homepage, YG managers did not even apologise or give an explanation to GDragon’s no-show after that.
One of the producers said, “YG Ent said that when GDragon were asked the question “Which junior girlgroup singers do you think is the cutest?” and he answered f(x) Sulli on 9th September on one of the radio shows on 9th September, it became a problem and it is difficult to have him go on radio show. But in the schedule shared by GDragon and his fans, it was stated that he will be appearing on Sukira” ▶ YG speaks up
While YG spoke up about KBS 2FM’s boycott against them as being “unfair” to them.
A YG representative said on 18th September, “GDragon went on to KBS 2FM ‘Up The Volume’ for his first radio show programme,and 2NE1 also appear on Sukira – we have been on good terms with KBS radio, we are in shock and disbelief to have received such a notification from them. Even though we did receive requests for GDragon to go on Sukira, we did not 100% agree or promise that he will go on the show.”
Yang Hyun Seok also talked about this during an interview on 18th September, “We have clearly stated our stand that it is difficult to have GDragon on the radio show on 10th and 14th September. We have decided that it is not good to have GDragon talk too much about personal stuff and had decided that he will not go on radio shows.” He also stressed that GDragon has not gone on any other radio shows after the 2 radio shows he did at the beginning period of his solo debut.
He added, “To get boycotted by a broadcast company, isn’t the measures too harsh?”
But KBS 2FM had stated, “The boycott only appears on radio show, it has nothing to do with KBS TV.”
Meanwhile, GDragon will continue to appear on KBS Music Bank next week.

Jessica, "I didn't know Krystal would debut this fast"
9-girl group SNSD's Jessica(20) gave an encouraging message to her younger sister Krystal(15) who made her debut through the 5-girl rookie group f(x).
On the 15th, after the press conference about the production for the musical 'Legally Blonde' at the Seoul Samsungdong Coex Artium in the afternoon, Jessica showed her worries about her younger sister during the meeting with Star News.
"Krystal made her debut at a younger age than me. Making an early debut can be a good thing but I'm still worried" said Jessica, caring as a older sister, not as a senior singer.
"However, Krystal, being a strong girl, will do a good job"; "I also heard from manager oppa last year that she was doing great", said Jessica with a smile on her face.
Then she said, "Actually, before I started my activities, I didn't have time to spend with her so I didn't know she could sing, dance and talk so well like that"; "Learning/practicing dance and sing in a fast time to the point of being capable of debuting already never crossed my mind", feeling proud.
"I hope Krystal can work hard in the future like how she is doing now"; "Surely, similar aspects between us will appear because we are sisters, not because she is trying to follow her older sister. But with each one of us carrying a different charm, it would be good if hers could be explored.", requested Jessica.
On a side note, 'Legally Blonde', which it has the same name with the Hollywood movie, it's originally a musical from Broadway. Jessica will play the female protagonist Elle Woods together with actress Lee Haniu and actor Kim Jiwoo, making their performance on the November, 14th at the Coex Atrium.
I have received much shock from what Jaebum wrote 4 years ago to his friend. Could it have been another celebrity, I myself would have felt much anger, resentment, and abandonment at his words. But I have known Jaebum for so long that those words are not surprising to me.
I already knew Jaebum was that kind of child.
When Jaebum first came to Korea 4 years ago, he was very rebellious and out of line. He laughed at Korea and belittled his fellow trainees, even going so far as to see me as ‘easy.’ I believe he thought that being a Korean celebrity was something to laugh at. He was a boy that wanted to b-boy in the streets. He fought with company employees, his dance instructors, and made threatening statements.
At times, he even said that he did not like JYP Ent., and would name another rival company, wishing to be sent there instead.
But what made us surprised even more was that when asked whether he had the guts to succeed, he said “We could succeed if we don’t receive JYP’s music.”
At this point, employees wondered why we were keeping such a rebellious boy.
This is why his words 4 years ago are not suprising.
Then why would we keep such a kid?
I love rebellious children. Rather than children that are nice up front but are calculating and evil behind my back, I love children that are rebellious up to my face. I loved the fact that he showed his emotions straight up. It gave me hope. Who would have the guts to utter such words to my face? To say that his failure depended on my bad music? I thought that it was funny.
I believed that rebellious children had too much energy, just no place to express that energy. Or they never met someone that would trust them enough to show them the correct path. I wanted to help this person go on stage and feel the energy and joy. As long as I could instill within him trust and love.
To Jaebum, there are only two types of people. His family, and those that are not his family. He loves his family more than I could ever know. The reason he talks about money in interviews is not to buy nice clothes, it is to pay back his family, who always works hard for him. That’s why he ran the path of becoming a singer.
He was rebellious, but he excelled in training.
I saw this and thought, if only I could make him think of my company, his fellow trainees, this company as his family. if only.
So one day, I told him “Jaebum, someone is not a family only because they share the same blood. Please open your heart to them first. Then others can be your family too.”
Through these efforts, he began to change.. He began to hug his fellow trainees, start conversations with company employees, and began enjoying his time on the stage.
He finally began to express his energy on stage and began to shine through singing and dancing.
I chose him as the team’s leader. The rest of the 6 really believed in him and followed his lead.
He always trained with them and always thought of his younger members before him..
After his debut, he felt a change in his heart at the news reporters and attentions that showed him in a positive light and began showing affection.
He was touched at by the hearts of his fans.
Good people, good friends, good fans… good music.. through all this, he began to change.
But as things began to go up, like a sad movie scene, his entry from 4 years ago was released.
He was so sorry. To his 2PM brothers, to me, to his company employees, to his fans.. and to nobody more than to his Koreans.
He thought to himself that if he stayed any longer, his brothers would only get more hurt. He told me he did not have the confidence to get up on stage.
I knew what he was saying too well to hold him back.
If I were him, I would have mdae the same mistage.
And so he left.
His last email to me said “I’VE BEEN A LITTLE PUNK IN THE PAST. I JUST WANT TO LET YO UKNOW THAT IT WAS A LIFE CHANGING EXPERIENCE. IT MADE ME A MUCH BETTER MUCH STRONGER PERSON AND I’M THANKFUL FOR EVERYTHING YOU HAVE DONE FOR ME. REAL TALK.”
My heart was ripping. It hurt. But knowing what Koreans would feel at his words, an immense sense of betrayal, I could not say anything.
But what I can do for him is to tell everyone that he showed on TV is not fake. He might have been rebellious but never fake. He never hid his true emotions. He was always up front, straight up… and that is something that can never change.
I know the public and the fans and I am listening to your opinions. But the most important thing is that Jaebum is not 2PM’s Park Jaebum but a child, a teenager Jaebum.
I genuinely wish for you all to hold his decision true.
I apologize once more.
JYP
No no, we cant let him go this way. That fucking bitch should go drink vomit.
Park Jaebum and JYP confirm his departure from 2PM
Tuesday, September 8, 2009
On September 8th 11:59PM, Jaebum wrote on his fancafe
"Hello, I'm 2PM's JaeBum. I'm sorry for giving you my last greeting through this letter. I think it will be hard for me to see you all on stage because of my sorry heart. I'm really sorry to everyone, and I'm even more sorry to the fans who have shown me love. From today, I will leave 2PM. 2PM boys, I'm really sorry to the boys and I'm sorry I couldn't be strong as a leader and a hyung and have to leave like this. However, I hope you will be more cool and charming. Again, I'm sorry."
Jaebum said "I am sorry to everyone, especially to the fans who loved me and stuck by me. From today I will break away from 2PM" JAebum finally wrote "I am very sorry to the 2PM guys and to others that I couldn't be a good enough leader and hyung. I apologize again."
JYP Entertainment also confirmed through a phone interview with Newsen that the departure of Jaebum from 2PM is indeed true. Hearing about his departure from 2PM, one of the biggest and most popular idol groups, there was lots of commotion and distress from netizens.
One person said "Jaebum's actions were indeed wrong but he did apologize and did all he could. I am very worried about how the fans will react."
Jaebum wrote the things about Korea back in 2005 on his myspace.
I FUCKING CANT STAND NETIZENS. ARE THEY HAPPY NOW? __________________________________
Antis create suicide petition for Jaebom
It has recently been revealed that 2PM's leader Jaebum will no longer be on Nodaji and will stop all activities until his Myspace controversy clears. But apparently, that wasn't enough for angry netizens. Some antis wanted him to quit show biz altogether, some wanted him out of 2PM, and then there are those antis just wanted him to disappear...
...And thus, a petition titled "Jaebum Should Commit Suicide" was created on Agora, one of Daum's portal sites . Over 3000 people have signed this petition, leaving comments such as "Go back to America", "I'm disgusted by you", and "Jaebum will be the next Yoo Seung-joon" before it was taken down on September 7, around 4PM (Korean time).
But things seem to be looking up, because another petition entitled "Please Forgive Our Jaebum Just This Once" on Agora replaced the other hate-filled one and has gained over 6,000 signatures in two days.
Right, they are asking someone to go and die now? Totally reflect bad of koreans. what kind of morales do they actually have? At least Jay is freed from all these nonsense now.

"I grew 20cm in a year by drinking banana milk." - Nana, After School/Orange Caramel
News Asia, August 2010
"Yubin takes in everything. Because of that, I would always whine and let my anger out on her, saying that I’m tired. She would always be understanding, so I’m sorry.” - YeEun, Wonder Girls
Mnet Made in Wonder Girls, October 2010
"The music of ‘Love Light’ was written some time ago. When I thought of you (Seohyun), I started to put in the lyrics for the song. For the rap part, I thought of SNSD’s ‘Tell Me Your Wish’ and that was how ‘I’m genie for you girl’ came about.” - YongHwa, C.N Blue
Confession to Seohyun (SNSD) on MBC's WGM, 9 October 2010
"I really thought you were a tree."- Leeteuk, Super Junior
in response to Eunhyuk wearing brown from head to toe during their trainee days; KBS Sukira Radio, 20 October 2010
“I think, not just Thai people, but anybody could be in my spot. Because I started below zero, you know; I had no singing background, no dancing, nothing. I think it's a matter of how hard you work and how much you want it.”
-Nickhun, 2PM
(Nichkhun: The 'shy little boy' turned K-Pop sensation, CNNgo, 8 November 2010)
“If there’s one thing we genuinely wish for, it’s for all nine of our SNSD members to go together until the end.”
-Girls' Generation
(In an interview after winning Golden Disk Daesang awards, Daily Sports News
, 9 December 2010)
“Minho hyung has big eyes, well-defined features, and good style. So I thought he was not a Korean (laugh). He stuttered when he talked to me maybe because he’s introverted, so I thought he’s younger than me. Key hyung made a strong impression from the beginning for his showy fashion (laugh).”
-Taemin, SHINee
(Japanese Magazine ORISUTA,June 2011)
“My baby tummy which was a patent of mine disappeared suddenly one day. Our fans said my tummy then was cute, but where has it gone?”
-Sungyeol,INFINITE
(INKIGAYO MAGAZINE,August 2011)
“We don’t really think of ourselves as rivals with SNSD. There are things they can do, and we have things we can do… I hope each can become a group that can be a source of strength and consolation for many people.”
-SunYe,Wonder Girls
(MBN INTERVIEW,November 2011)
