[News] 2NE1 Park Bom’s Solo Stage Sparks Interest


CNB Breaking News – Four-member group 2NE1’s main vocalist Park Bom, debuted in her first solo stage on SBS Inkigayo.

The anticipated solo broadcast of Park Bom’s single, “You and I” showed brilliant singing and dancing skills.

YG Entertainment said of Park Bom’s solo activities that, “2NE1’s studio album and performances is on-going and no special promotional activities are planned for the group,” meaning that Bom’s solo activities would stand in lieu of the group’s absence on stage.

YG Entertainment’s last solo single release, Park Dara’s “Kiss” also moved to the top of the charts, even with the lack of promotional activities on TV performances. But Park Bom’s case will not go the same route. “Because of 2NE1’s lack of activities, it was good timing, since the somewhat less harried preparation of the studio album would make solo activities possible. Because “Lollipop,” “Fire,” and “I Don’t Care” received so much love, the solo album would showcase songs that will be prepared as title tracks. All the songs have very intense preparations, so the solo album would not be rushed.”

In addition to Bom’s first stage, SHINEE and Super Junior, both consecutively ranking as number one in the past two weeks, also performed their songs.

Looks like this is good news ! Looks like bom will be promoting o.o?

[News] PD Hong to drama ‘You’re Beautiful’ reveals reason for casting UEE



PD Hong SeongChan of SBS ongoing hit drama ‘You’re Beautiful’ reveals the reason why After School member UEE was casted as character Yoo HeYi on the show.

PD Hong said in a recent interview, “We did many auditions for the casting of character Yoo HeYi in the show, and UEE was one of the auditionees. We decided to test the auditionees for crying scenes without giving them any hints before that. UEE did a good crying scene almost instantly and we casted her immediately.”

PD Hong also said, “Now looking at UEE’s acting, we think we’ve made a good choice.”

The PD also talked about cast Jang GeunSeok, Park ShinHye and Jung YoungHwa, “GeunSeok plays the team leader who is the core of the team, ShinHye is one who acts well with stamina even when she is tired. And YoungHwa’s acting is not that of a newcomer at all.”

[News] Beast comments on Mblaq!



Around the time of BEAST’s debut, boy idol groups started returning to the music industry, and the competition began. They have an especially interesting competition with their fated rivals who debuted on the same day, MBLAQ.

BEAST said, “MBLAQ is extremely cool. The members are close and don’t seem like strangers; they’re supporting one another. We feel like the two groups are having a synergistic effect, so even we are thankful for MBLAQ’s debut.”

But the subtle competition cannot be completely ignored. When asked what set them apart from other idol groups, BEAST replied that if nothing else, their passion* for music will never be overshadowed.

[news]Grand Bell Film Fest Puzzles Movie Fans




Movie fans may have highly anticipated the 46th Grand Bell (Daejong) Film Festival, which took place Friday in southern Seoul, but the outcome of the event was unexpected.

The festival's award ceremony had many shaking their heads, as some of the most successful films took home fewer trophies than expected, while the lack of participating stars left the event feelfeel a bit empty.

This year's Best Picture award went to ``The Divine Weapon,'' pushing aside hit blockbusters ``Haeundae'' and ``Mother.''

``Mother,'' which premiered at the Cannes Film Festival, managed only to win the Best Supporting Actor award, while ``Haeundae,'' which was nominated in nine categories and was one of the biggest films of the year, won only Best Producer.

``Take-Off'' was nominated in seven categories but only won Best Director, while ``Closer to Heaven'' took home Best Actor. ``Haeundae'' and ``Take-Off'' attracted a total of 12.93 million movies goers, alternating in first and second place in the box office for six consecutive weeks last August.

Another flaw in this year's event was the absence of top stars. Three out of the five nominees for the Best Actor award failed to appear for health or personal issues. Kim Myung-min, who eventually was named Best Actor for his role as a terminally ill man in ``Closer to Heaven'' was not able to receive the award as he was hospitalized, according to his agency.

Other stars, including Cheong Kyung-ho, who was nominated for Best Supporting Actor, and Kim Hae-suk and Uhm Jung-hwa who were nominated for Best Supporting Actress, also missed the event. Those awards were given to Jin Goo for his role in ``Mother'' and Kim Young-ae in ``Aeja.''

Meanwhile, the Best Actress award was given to Su Ae for her appearance in the film ``Sunny,'' leaving Jang Na-ra, who had been in the middle of a debate regarding the festival's nomination process, trophy-less.
The festival committee had to explain its decision to nominate Jang for a film that had not even been in theaters at the time, and also for excluding Ha Ji-won, who starred in two of the biggest films of the year, ``Haeundae'' and ``Closer to Heaven."
