The Park's Dara and Thunder

Siblings Dara (2ne1) and Thunder (MBLAQ) spent some quality time together amidst busy schedules. Cute, right? Dara became Korea's favorite dork after 2ne1's debut early last year because of her... err... how should i say this... being 4D? But cute, though. We like her being different after all. Anyway, her younger brother Sang Hyun aka Thunder debuted late last year with his group MBLAQ (managed by no less than Rain, btw) and made quite an impression with the Korean fans. We are certainly looking forward to see these flawless two perform onstage together. Let's keep our fingers crossed!

Looking at the picture, I guess 4D-ness runs in the genes there.

Wonder Girls TOP Billboard Hot Single Sales


The Wondergirls have added fuel to JYP’s American dream by topping the Billboard Hot Singles Sales in the U.S. with their hit single “Nobody” for the year 2009. The girls outsold top American acts such as Beyonce, Mariah Carey and Lady Gaga.

So how did they do it?

Their success is due to the fact that they were the opening act for popular boy act,The Jonas Brothers on their U.S. tour. Not only that, the girls managed to get into the mainstream media with appearance on BET’s “Wendy Williams Show” and the reality program, “So You Think You Can Dance”.

You will hear more from the girls with their new album in February 2010 for the U.S. market.

Ummm... Sohee, are you happy about it or what?

Leeteuk's Sad Love Story


On SBS Strong Heart aired on 24th November, Lee Teuk revealed his heartbreaking love story which took place 3 years back.
He said, “After debut, I need to show responsibility in every matter as a leader. I even have a little pre-test about going into a love relationship.” He talks about falling in love with a woman 3 years back, “3 years ago, when I was doing schedule, a lady passed by and caught my attention. And I thought ‘So you can really fall in love with a person at first sight’.”
He added, “I thought that it will be burdensome if I have gone up personally. So I asked ShinDong to help me ask for her contacts. I said ‘This is Lee Teuk. I really like you that I think I’m in love with you. I hope we can meet up and talk’. And the woman said, ‘I feel pressured because you are an idol’.”
But to win the woman’s heart, Lee Teuk had borrowed Super Junior’s 250K kilo schedule car and prepared a CD with songs that the she may like. Lee Teuk said, “I stopped the car in a park in YeoIlDo and played the song ‘DDD’ by Kim HyeRim to lighten up the mood. She said that we have similar taste in music. She was then thirsty and as I got PET bottles and went to a nearby restaurant to fill it up with Cola and cider. She said that she felt my love and was thankful.”
He continued, “But she never told me that she like me. So I proposed ‘I want to go out with you officially’. And the woman accepted. But following that we only meet like once a week. She called and said ‘JungSoo sshi, I really wanted to watch that movie.”
“Even though it was peak hours, I went out for a date with the woman. Even though I may be caught by reporters, I didn’t care more and held the woman’s hand and we went to a cinema in KangNam. I thought that I really wanted to marry this woman and am ready to give up my celebrity life. People have saw me and asked ‘Is that Lee Teuk?’. But I didn’t care more.”
But coincidentally the woman’s mobile phone rang. And the person on the other line is a ChaeBol 2nd generation celebrity. Lee Teuk said, “I passed her the phone and pretended that I didn’t see his name, she then went away to take the call. I had the 250K borrowed car and it was said that he was waiting in front of her house with a luxurious foreign car.”
“I was so happy looking at the woman for 30 seconds. After that it was like hell. After that day, she did not contact me and we did not meet up at all. And for the next 6 months, I went into a slump. I kept calling her but she never picked up.”
Super Junior member Eun Hyuk said, “This is the first time I see Lee Teuk fall in love and get so heartbroken.”
And when asked if it is alright to reveal his love story on the show, Lee Teuk said that it is alright since he has said in a calm state. “Now that I’ve said these words out, I feel good inside. I really wanted to give up then. But I have no regrets about it now.”

COMMENT: Aww.. poor Teukie. He must have really loved that woman a lot. Right now I want to kill her! (sorry!) A fan will always be a fan. ELVES, let get her!

[CF] Maja Salvador and Kim Bum

This is it!
RC Cola commercial featuring these two lovely Asians.
I was ecstatic when Maja got this project. Kim Bum is one lucky guy indeed! And Maja has to be the envied girl in the Philippines as of the moment. Why do I say so? Ever heard of BOYS OVER FLOWERS? This hot guy was one of the main characters, and probably on the main list of the most wanted F4. Hehehe!!!

What I think about the video? I think it's GREAT!
Check it out for yourselves!

[MV] Kiss - Sandara Park with Lee Min Ho

Talk about how a music video can actually endorse a product big time!
Koreans do know marketing pretty well. This video shows bittersweet love and revenge. I must say, Sandara Park did really, really well. She even sang the song. And Lee Min Ho... whoooaahh!!! Do I have to say anything more? This man just looks amazingly gorgeous more and more.
~drools~
Enjoy figuring out the storyline!
