After two long months, 2PM is truly back - first with a controversial performance at Dream Concert, then two song releases, and now an interview. Many Hottests have been dying to see these boys up close and personal again, and their wishes have finally been granted. Check out this interview with InStyle below:
To many people, these videos are a relief - the boys seem much brighter and healthier than in September, and even crack some jokes. Wooyoung briefly talks about the individual charms of each member, revealing that Chansung was a nice guy that didn't get along well with people, and Junho ripped his pants during the photoshoot due to his overly tight pants. Great to see that our boys are still as hilarious as ever!
Unfortunately, Jaebeom wasn't present, and his name never came up during the interview... it felt like there was an elephant in the room.

[Updated with full track!] Maslo who? Maslo (pronounced meh-sul-lo) is famous to those in touch with the Korean underground hip hop scene. Maslo teamed up with another underground artist from Soul Connection named "JEPP" to release an album called BLACKOUT.
If the album cover didn't do it, their song which is identical to GD's "Heartbreaker" will certainly create a buzz amongst VIP's and netizens alike.
The BLACKOUT album was digitally released today and they will perform this song for the first time at an underground showcase at November 11th.
Many netizens feel that Maslo is doing this for "noise marketing," to become popular in the mainstream. However, Maslo's fans have stated that "Maslo is already known in the underground realm and doesn't even want to go mainstream." Other netizens also voiced their opinions saying that people can just view this as an "anti-GD track" and should just be dismissed.
Another netizen is speculating that if Maslo was asked if he plagiarized "Heartbreaker," Maslo will respond with "no... I just sampled Flo Rida's 'Right Round.'"
It is uncertain if YG will seek legal actions however, there have been buzz that they will which might even bring more light into this situation.
FULL TRACK RELEASED
Lyrics by Maslo, JEPP Blackman Produced by ideology, Maslo, JEPP Blackman Arranged by ideology Recorded by Csp @ SC Studio Mixed by Mr.Sync @ ARK Sounds Mastered by 전훈 @ Sonic Korea Illustrated by 정재열 Designed by Rhymics
Seems like it is just a plagiarism issue now but the track is hot!

It has been confirmed that the well-known artist will hold a tour named "Bad Party - Heartless, love doesn't exist anymore" right after releasing a new album. Back in November 2007, he had released a new album called Back to stage and toured four major cities in Korea. Just as he did with that album, JY Park is expected to hold a short but intense promotion.
When he finished up his 7th album promotion, he had promised that he would not come back until a Korean name got on the Billboard chart. With the Wonder Girls' recent achievement, he has fulfilled that promise and is now able to return to Korea for a new album. It is not decided yet whether it will be a full album or a mini album, but details will be released in early December
