But haunted by the merciless execution of his friend by the Clan, Raizo breaks free from them...and vanishes. Now he waits, preparing to exact his revenge.

The episode that was released on the 31st of October was a feast of celebrities.

To celebrate their rice harvest they did themselves, the celebrities gathered to party with the Infinite Challenge crew.

Jung Joon Ha called Kimbum at 9AM and was able to get him to come. When he arrived, he said he came because "Jung Joon Ha promised to buy me food." He changed into work boots and helped out.

An hour later, Kara appeared and performed "Mister" (booty shaking dance) for the Infinite Challenge crew. Lee Min Woo received a call from fellow Shinhwa member Jun Jin and came to help out. However, due to Kara's presence, he didn't even get a formal introduction and was sent in the field to work.

At noon, Epik High showed up as if they have just woke up from sleep and performed as well.

Bada came after and sang live without any instrumentals and showcased what a wonderful talent she is.

Yoo Jae Suk than called up Jewerly and asked them to come. When they did come, Gil was shocked after seeing his girlfriend. He got mad at MC Yoo for "telling them to come when he is working."

[news] BEAST's Doojoon and Yo Seob's Bromance

With BEAST currently gaining a lot of popularity, it's hard NOT to notice a bromance forming between members Doojoon and Yo Seob.

I'm sure fangirls (and perhaps some fanboys) have been pretty sad lately that their hasn't been many bromances forming or just not getting to see bromances in general. However, newcomers BEAST will give those fans what they want.

BEAST's leader Doojoon and main vocalist Yo Seob have been seen getting rather...close with the past few performances of "Bad Girl" as well as off camera with behind the scene footage from the "Bad Girl" MV shoot. I think it's rather cute that Fake T.O.P. Doojoon and the little blonde boy Yo Seob have a bromance going on. They look like opposites, one with the sexy eyes, the other with a cute little boy look. However, you know there is love going on between them the moment you watch them together.

Check out clips of their bromance!!
