SS501 Greets Chinese Fans at Beijing Fanmeet




Yesterday, SS501 had a very successful fanmeeting in Beijing and personally I'm not surprised... who doesn't love hot guys? Especially when they travel in packs!

The five-man group sang "Unlock," "Deja Vu," "A Song Calling For You" and Triple S's hit, "U R Man." During the set, the members teased each other with imitations; Young-saeng showed the audience how Jung-min looks when he was drunk and even Hyun-joong imitated maknae Hyung-joon's behaviors.

Unsurprisingly, rumor has it that many fans were chasing the boys during their stay in Beijing. Leader Hyun-joong is most widely known because of his role in Boys Over Flowers and SS501 for their song, "Because I'm Stupid," from the drama.

For the conclusion of the fan meeting, the boys sang and encore song and told the audience to anticipate SS501's second album, slated for a September release.

Rain and 'Ku Hye-Seon' who have turned Mini Elves, Show their Duet



In bakery brand 'Tous Les Jours' ad, Rain and actress Ku Hye-Seon turn handheld and mini patissier elves, and show their lovely and happy appearance.

Since this ad says these two turn cute and mini patissier elves, not to mention peripheral props had to become bigger.

Pros such as spoons, forks, sourdough, and pieces of almonds, were specifically formulated for the shooting, Rain had to pour syrup, holding a heavy and big spoon in his hand, and Ku Hye-Seon had to act to stud a model of huge pieces of almonds.

It was nearly all shot in conjunction with computer-generated props, it is said that Rain and Ku Hye-Seon also sang CM together after the shooting all night. This ad will be aired on TV from the evening of the 2nd.

SS501 will hold their first official fan meeting in Beijing, representing their ambition to develop in China.
SS501 will be holding their official fan meeting on the 29th of this month, at Chaoyang Stadium in Beijing, China, stepping onto China soil, officially arriving and developing their China market.

This activity is SS501’s first step in developing the China market, they’re prepared to tour 4 different cities in China next year January, so this fan meeting in Beijing is a test of their popularity.


The location for the Beijing fan meeting can hold 4000 people. A representative from DSP, SS501’s management company, said, “SS501 has prepared many songs, and are prepared to let everyone present thoroughly enjoy themselves. Because the stage is 360 degrees, 4 sided, so the 5 members will sit in the middle of the stage and interact with the fans. Because this is officially their first step into the China market, so the chatting time in the schedule, will contain more interesting content to let the fans understand our SS501 better.”

And after SS501 finish their China fan meeting, they’ll be continuing their Asia Tour in Taiwan in October. Taiwan’s concert will be held in Taiwan Arena, Taiwan’s biggest location, fans will once again be able to see the charm of these 5 people. Apart from that, Hong Kong’s tour is currently scheduled for November, in other words, in the following 3 months, they’ll be spending it with the fans of the Greater China region.

The management company then mentioned, “Even though we’ve received invitations from various Asian countries since their debut but in order to strengthen their standing in Korea and develop the Japan market so previously we’ve never made any moves, but through the Asia Tour this time, we’ll be visiting various countries, moving a step closer to interacting with fans.”

SS501 will be releasing their official second album all over Asia next month, and will simultaneously conduct their highly anticipated Asia Tour. Also, countries such as Thailand, Singapore, Philippines, and Vietnam etc are also in planning stages.

On Set with Lee Minho + Sandara Park for CASS 2X CF!





We know everyone is anxious to see the CASS 2x Beer CF featuring hit superstar Lee Minho and 2NE1's Sandara Park, so here are some behind the scenes shots of the set!

We began shooting around midnight on Wednesday and ended around sunrise (5:30am). Around 240 extras jumped enthusiastically to the "concert" being performed. We were given glow sticks and Cass Beer to shake, spray and drink. In addition to being drenched in beer, we were sprayed with water hoses as well. It was cold and tiring, but definitely fun!

Lee Minho had a scene in the red Ferrari and then later joined the crowd with Sandara Park, which drove the fan boys crazy. Lee Minho was supposed to spot her in the crowd and then make his way toward her. Of course this is a beer CF, so the moral of the story is that being drenched in beer makes everyone happy, and of course they get together in the end. I'd give away more details, but I don't want to ruin the fun - so you'll just have to wait to see the entire CF! I'm looking forward to seeing the final production and my beer drenched self as well... cheers!

Netizens Want Lee Min Ho for ‘Mischievous Kiss’


We reported earlier this month that popular Japanese manga 'Mischievous Kiss' was being remade into a Korean drama by the creators of the hit show 'Boys Over Flowers'. The producers of 'Mischievous Kiss' are currently searching for cast members, and apparently Lee Min Ho is the most popular choice amongst netizens for the drama's lead role. The other F4 boys--Kim Bum, Kim Joon, and Kim Hyun Joong--have also garnered some support from netizens for the role. If casted, Lee Min Ho would once again bring out his sexy bad boy charm to play the role of Naoki, a handsome but arrogant high school genius chased after by a girl named Kotoko, who does everything and anything she can to prove her feelings to him.

As for the role of Kotoko, Goo Hye Sun and Kim So Eun are the popular choices. Seems like netizens really want a 'Boys Over Flowers' reunion, which wouldn't be out of the question, considering the producers are obviously aware of the appeal of that drama's cast.

As for me, I shall clasp my hands in anticipation for a possible Lee Min Ho/Kim So Eun match. How would you guys feel if those two were cast for the lead roles? Would you rather see him get back together with Goo Hye Sun?

Updates on Lee Min Ho

English translated by loveminho.com

1. MH's short interview was aired on MBC Section TV last night. He was interviewed on the 27th.

The fraud case of LMH's fan meeting in Thailand ranked second in the hot news this week.
MH : That is a fraudulent and assertive behavior that advertised falsely a performance which will never happen.

Reporter: How would that happen if the popularity of LMH weren't at the peak?^^



2. Yesterday(28th), one fan asked MH's agency on the phone if MH would attend the M-net 20's Choice Award Ceremony, one staff at his agency answered that MH had another schedule last night but the schedule could be changed anytime. So we expected a bit MH would show up in M-net 20's Choice Award Ceremony or T-max concert. But MH didn't attend both of the two events.


3. On the 27th, some fans posted on DC gall that a kiss scene of MH and Dara beside Han river and a scene of their putting arms around each other's shoulders were filmed for Cass CF.^^

4. New
Etude House CF aired on MNET on 08/28/09



5. LMH's greetings on the pre-recorded video clip aired at Kim Rae Won Japan Fan meeting on April 25th, 2009.




Hello, I am Lee Min Ho
Thank you for attending KRW's fan meeting.
I ask you guys always to give a huge support and encouragement to KRW


I heard he would enter the military service.
Because we will not be able to see his acting for 2 years,
I am so sad and will miss him so much as one of his fans.


I hope he will spend the time well in the army with good health.
Until then, I will always support and pray for him

6. In the mini fan meeting of Dunkin event,

One fan asked MH "What would you say if you give a coffee to your girl friend ?
I will say, "try it!! (shortly).."because I am relatively a blunt person"
(after saying it, MH burst out laughing)

So suppose you give a coffee to customers?
Then, "Would you please try this?" (politely)

MH is so humble that he doesn't seem blunt.

I think MH was shy about pretending to talk to his girlfriend in front of the audience(fans).^^

Rain & Goo Hye Sun are Tous Les Jours CF Models



Singer and actor Bi / Rain has been chosen as the new CF model for Korea's famous bakery brand, Tous Les Jours (뚜레쥬르).

Rain is currently working hand in hand with actress Goo Hye Sun for an upcoming Tous Les Jours CF. Filming for this CF had already begun earlier this month and is still in the works. In this CF, Rain will hold a cute and playful image that will highlight Tous Les Jours' smooth image.


This CF will show different charms of Rain, other than the charismatic and humorous charms in his previous SKT Telecom CF. Many, if not all, of Rain's CFs were very entertaining, so I have no doubts that this one will be great as well.

=================

Goo Hye sun always snags the cutest co-stars.

Popular stars Rain and Goo Hye sun have joined forces to film a CF for the bakery brand 뚜레쥬르 (Tu-re-ju-rul). Filming for the CF began earlier this month.

Although Rain’s appearance in the CF is probably what will excite viewers the most, the singer was only the brand’s second choice for the CF’s male lead. He was brought in after actor Jo In-sung became unavailable, as he had already begun his military service.

Shots of the pair filming have already been released showing the duo decked out in preppy all-white ensembles with green accessories. Aside from that, the pair looks to be doing some sort of super-adorable dance. By the looks of things, Rain’s character in the CF will be cute and playful, a heavy contrast to the sexy and charismatic image that has become the singer’s trademark. As for Goo Hye-sun, well she’s adorable in general, so the whole cute look isn’t really a stretch for her.

This unexpected pairing is already creating a buzz. With Rain’s superstar status and Goo Hye-sun’s current popularity, the duo is sure to sell a lot of pastries!

From Soompi - Family Outing thread @ calolwafu



Agreed readily to appearing in ‘Family Outing’.
SS501 Kim HyunJoong spents the night with his ideal girl Lee Hyori.

Kim Hyun Joong appeared as a guest for SBS Sunday is Good’s ‘Family Outing’ filming on 24-Aug in a village at Gangwon-do. Kim Hyun Joong spent the whole day helping to do farming works and other meaningful chores with Lee Hyori and other fixed ‘Family Outing’ members, Yoo Jae Suk, Kim Soo Ro, Yoon Jong Shin, Kim Jong Gook, Park Hae Jin, Park SiYeon.

Kim Hyun Joong had thus fulfilled his promise to Lee Hyori. Lee Hyori had invited Kim Hyun Joong to participate for this show during DongBangShinGi’s concert in Feb.

Kim Hyun Joong had always chosen Lee Hyori as his ideal girl. Both of them were under the same family of DSP Media for one time. Kim Hyun Joong cross-dressed as Fin.K.L during SS501’s concert, showing his constant affection for them. Of course, Lee Hyori took care of her juniors SS501, which Kim Hyun Joong belongs to, whenever time allows.

Kim Hyun Joong’s appearance episode will be shown on 27-Sep. This episode will also have Seung Ri who showed his loyalty by coming in place of Dae Sung who was hurt during a traffic accident.

Lee Min Jung : gave up opportunity to star in G-Dragons MV


A good opportunity wasted?

Lee Min Jung, best known for her role as Gu Jun Pyo’s fiancée in popular drama Boys Before Flowers, was originally the female lead in GD’s MV for his first solo album. However, she gave up the opportunity and instead, starred in newbie group December’s MV.

As GD’s Hearbreaker album is enjoying record-breaking sales and extreme popularity, netizens were naturally curious about the reason behind Lee Min Jung’s decision.

In reply, December’s agency CS Happy Entertainment said that ‘Before Lee Min Jung became popular, she starred in Zia’s MV ‘Violin’. Hence, she was grateful for the opportunity we had given her then and hence decides to star in December’s MV.’ It was then discovered that the schedules would clash and thus she was unable to take part in G-Dragon’s MV.

As an insider in the K-pop industry put it ‘Although I understand her point of gratitude, isn’t it a waste to give up on such a great opportunity?’

According to CS Happy Entertainment, ‘At first, Lee Ming Jung didn’t know that she was invited to take part in GD’s MV. It is rare these days that an artiste will give up such a great opportunity and we are really grateful.’

Kim Bum : is still happy even though the DREAM ratings is low



“Although the ratings are low, but because I love acting, I live happily each and everyday.” 20 years old Kim Bum made the above remarks with a smile.

MBC Korean TV drama ‘Queen Seon Duk’ has suppressed the ratings of ‘Dream’. Kim Bum don’t mind if the ratings was only 5% to 6%.

Kim Bum expressed: “All the shooting scenes atmosphere were good. Even though I have to shoot for 6 days a week, I don’t feel tired at all. Currently we have completed shooting half the series (Total: 20 series), and are looking forward to the rest of the filming.”

Since ‘Boys Before Flowers’, Kim Bum has been popular all this while. In the Korean TV drama ‘Boys Before Flowers’, Kim Bum has been acting as a rich group successor. Through ‘Boys Before Flowers’, he had shot 7 commercial ads and ranked as a Hallyu star by overseas fans.

Just few months later, Kim Bum got rid of his ‘flower boy’ image and acted as a fighter in the SBS Korean TV drama ‘Dream’. Because the change of role is so significant, the audiences may not be able to accept it at once.

Kim Bum said: “As a actor, I cannot only just develop in one kind of role. Acting as So Yi Jung is being welcome by most fans, but it could also easily caught fans too depth in. Actually I should be resting after shooting ‘Boys Before Flowers’, but I accepted to act in ‘Dream’ because of Lee Jang Suk’s role. This role is very attractive and it can help me to walk out from So Yi Jung’s image.

Although the ratings were low, but Kim Bum’s success reforming has received the show business sector’s attention. Production team also gave encouragement to Kim Bum who has successfully walk out of his ‘flower boy’ image.

Minho Hotness with a spice of Hye Sun

credit: DC

I found these cute fanarts and screenshots of MinHo and Hye Sun.. I missed them..



JunDi: Catch and Carry

After watching a multiple Korean dramas in the past, it is a general observation that a story wouldn’t be completely romantic (aside from the Kissing Scenes, of course) without the male protagonist carrying his love interest in a rescue scene or merely as an expression of affection.

Here is my summary of the “Carry Jandi” scenes from JunDi moments in Boys Over Flowers: (Too bad, I’m still missing a couple of photos which captured the last 2 moments.)

1. Scoop-Lift 1:

JP rescued JD from the wrath of the Shinwa students due to a fabricated scandal about JD.


2. Shoulder-Lift:

JP playfully carried JD on his shoulders having enough of her funny antics while learning how to play golf. (I totally love this one!)


3. Piggy-Back Ride 1 & Scoop-Lift 2:

JP was compelled by JD to join the “carry your gf/bf” contest with the goal of winning a couple phone. As seen in JP’s expression, he had a hard time carrying JD . On the other, JD obviosuly enjoyed it.


4. Piggy-Back Ride 2:

JP rescued JD from freezing to death while searching for the missing “moon-star” necklace.


5. Scoop-Lift 3:

JP saved JD from drowning after retrieving the “moon-star” necklace from the bottom of the pool at JK’s resort.


6. Scoop-Lift 4:

JP carried his “personal maid” JD to her room after falling asleep in his closet while hiding from JK.


I am absolutely amused with GHS’s account in their previous interview on how LMH had a hard time carrying her and committing a lot of NGs in the aforecited scenes. It is interesting to read MinSun’s comical exchange of teasing about these NGs. They certainly feel comfortable in each other’s company and have no hesitation about making fun of each other. LMH wittingly defends himself about why he can’t carry her properly.
