8ight's member, Baek Chan(백찬) made his radio DJ debut and had said that SNSD's Taeyeon had been his "teacher and sunbae".
On the 2nd, Baek Chan had expressed his gratitude to Taeyeon on his radio show on iTVFM which runs from 10pm-12am.
Baek Chan said "I had learnt a lot from Taeyeon's radio program" and "She is my teacher in DJing. I am really lucky and grateful that my radio timing does not clash with hers".
Taeyeon had responded to this by saying that "It doesn't feel right to be called as a sunbae in this" and "Baek Chan is an awesome rapper, and he speaks really well, therefore he doesn't have to worry about DJing."

‘Flower Boy’ Kim HyunJoong and SuAe from movie ‘The Sword With No Name’, will act in romantic comedy ‘You Are Pet’.
‘You Are Pet’ is a story from the 14-series comic in Japan which sold over 6million copies after its publication. It is about raising a boyfriend like a house pet.
It has been made into a 10-episode drama by Japan TBS station in 2003 with average viewership of 15% (equivalent to 30% in Korea), making a big hit at that time. In Japan, Matsumoto Jun aroused attention from the public for his role in this drama.
Kim HyunJoong’s role is the main character Kang InHo grows up in a female dominant environment, while learning ballet, he knows well what he can do to be able to be loved by females. Even though he is a promising classic ballet dancer getting recognition internationally, he ran away from home to the disappointment of his family.
SuAe’s character is Ji EunEe who is a reporter at a general media firm and takes on a job of a simultaneous translator after work. She had conflicts with her boss and was demoted to take care of monthly female fashion magazine instead. She started her cohabitant life with Kang InHo with ‘Owner and Pet’ relationship.
Production company Ludens said that this movie would likely to premier in April next year.
Riding on ‘Flower boy’ syndrome Kim HyunJoong and ‘pure and innocent beauty’ representative SuAe, they have gathered attention both locally and in Japan to see if they can drive this ‘Pet syndrome’.

We have heard Lee Hyori's thoughts about Ivy. Now it is Ivy's turn to share her thoughts about Lee Hyori.
In a recent interview with Asia Economy Newspaper Ivy says, "Lee Hyori sunbae is someone whom I've liked very much since I was in the ninth grade. During my second album, when I was promoting 'Sonata of Temptation,' I was very surprised to see articles saying that I was her rival. It was because, to me she was a much higher existence. Just being able to do something with her is such an honor. I've only seen her performing from afar. I've never have the chance to see her up close."
Ivy added, "I've also been cursed at a lot because of her too. There was a significant amount of opinions saying 'how dare you even think about forming a rival with Lee Hyori.' I received a lot of stress from it. I worried a lot when I heard that Lee Hyori sunbae would do a comeback too. I was doing a comeback in a difficult time and to think that I was being mentioned along side with a big star like Lee Hyori sunbae was very burdensome."
"Ultimately, when I heard Lee Hyori sunbae wasn't doing a comeback I was able to breathe a sigh of relief. But I was also disappointed. I thought I would be able to work harder since the level of my nervousness would double. Nevertheless, thank you. Because of this sunbae I was able to raise my level to this point."
On an ending note she added, "I'll try my best to work harder to go along with sunbae. Until then, articles that keep attaching us together will be very burdensome. I would like to ask a favor of those reporters to please refrain from writing articles about us being rivals..."
During this interview, the reporter wrote that Ivy was very cheerful. Ivy said, "I'm so happy to stand in front of my fans and show them my bright side."

The possibility of Korea's top idol group TVXQ disbanding is increasing, after their agency sent an apparent ultimatum to three of the five-member boy band to return to the agency.
Speaking at a press conference on Monday, SM Entertainment chief Kim Young-min accused the three members -- Xiah, Hero, and Micky -- of having sued against the company out of greed to make more money.
Kim was speaking about the ongoing legal battle between the three members and the company. The three band members claim the contract signed between TVXQ and the management agency is unfair.
Last month, a lower court sided with the three and ruled that parts of the contract should be invalidated, paving the way for them to resume individual music and advertisement careers.
The agency vowed to bring the case to a higher court, saying the three must follow the contract as long as they continue to be part of TVXQ, and should get paid according to the current contract.
The other two members -- U-know and Max -- rendered their support for the management agency's claim, expressing hope that the other three would return quickly.
In their statement, the two stressed that all members have worked under the same contract with SM Entertainment for the past five years.
"We believe that TVXQ would not have been in existence without SM Entertainment, which created the group. We are also not willing to resume our career as TVXQ without our current agency," the statement said.
In a related movement, SM Entertainment chief Kim made it clear that although the court granted freedom to the three members to pursue individual activities, they are allowed to work as TVXQ only under SM.
The company demanded that the three members reply to its request to return to the agency by Nov. 12.
But it is widely viewed that the three are unlikely to continue to work with the management agency due to deep distrust between the two sides.

Mnet announced a new annual music event Mnet Asian Music Awards (MAMA) and also this year’s nominees list on 23rd October (see more).
Already after the release of the nominee list, many netizens are unhappy about the nominee list and how nominees are chosen for each category. Following that, MAMA continues to fall under criticism with trot singers Park Hyun Bin and Jang Yoon Jung revealing that they will boycott the event. (article)
And today, 2 news came up revealing that SM Ent will also be boycotting the event, and DSP also revealed that SS501 and possibly even KARA will not be attending the event.
SM singers boycotts MAMA Artists managed under major talenthouse SM Entertainment have declared they will boycott a year-end music award ceremony held by cable music channel Mnet.
SM, who manages some of Korea’s top singers including Girls’ Generation, Super Junior and SHINee, announced in a press release on Tuesday that they would not participate in the 2009 Mnet Asian Music Awards (MAMA) set for November 21.
They explained that they cannot trust the criteria and standard of fairness used in making their selections, citing that Girls’ Generation, who had topped a music chart for nine consecutive weeks, had never taken first place on Mnet’s show and only entered their charts a month after their album was released.
The nine-member girl group’s single “Gee” was a sensation throughout the country upon its release early this year, dominating music charts for over two months.
SM also requested their artists be removed from a mobile poll which asks participants to pay a fee to place a vote, saying they “do not want to see fans suffer any damage from the poll which has commercial intentions”.
SM is the second agency after Inwoo Production to boycott the music festival. Inwoo, managing two of Korea’s top younger trot singers Jang Yoon-jeong and Park Hyun-bin, announced yesterday that they will not attend MAMA, also questioning the fairness of the awards ceremony.
Mnet will be holding the MAMA for the first time this year in place of its ten-year long Mnet KM Music Festival (MKMF).
DSP plays down MAMA boycott rumour
DSP Media on Wednesday played down rumors from earlier in the day which said that their group SS501 will not attend a year-end music award ceremony held by cable music channel Mnet to boycott the event.
“We are not boycotting the 2009 Mnet Asian Music Awards (MAMA),” stated an official at DSP Media. He explained that the five-member group will not be able to attend the event as they are busy promoting their new album “Rebirth” and have to travel overseas to hold concerts as part of their Asia tour.
The official added that they are currently debating on whether their girl group Kara will attend the event.
Mnet will be holding the MAMA for the first time this year in place of its ten-year long Mnet KM Music Festival (MKMF) but several top talenthouses in Korea have questioned its standard of fairness and said they will not take part in the event.
SM Entertainment, which manages several of Korea’s most popular artists including Girls’ Generation, Super Junior and SHINee, as well as Inwoo Production, in charge of two top trot singers Jang Yoon-jeong and Park Hyun-bin, have declared they will boycott the MAMA.
