Have you seen the dolls version of the Oh Yeah boys?
Found some cute photos of MBLAQ's dolls,i wonder whether they are fanmade or official products on MBLAQ,the dolls' outfits are exactly the same as the outfits they wore on their debut stage on M! Countdown.
If those dolls are official,i guess MBLAQ's fans will surely have them at home now,cute.I wish that they are sold in my country too,i will buy the whole set provided they are not too expensive.

SHINee's Taemin has recovered from swine flu.
SM Entertainment's publicist told Newsen through a phone interview on December 2nd, "On the 1st, a hospital exam has deemed Taemin cured from swine flu." He will start promotions again on the 3rd.
After having a slight fever on the 25th, he was rushed to the hospital and was diagnosed with swine flu on the 26th.
SHINee's Jonghyun, Onew, and Taemin had all had swine flu which saddened fans. A publicist said "It's regretful that all the members can't perform "Ring Ding Dong" together when it's topping the charts. But the members' health is more important."
Also he said, "After Jonghyun and Onew got swine flu, we disinfected the dorm. We will pay more attention to individuals' hygiene."

Rainbow's Jung Yoonhye revealed the secret of loosing 20kg.
Jung Yoonhye has revealed that she lost 20kg to become a singer in the last interview with her.
Jung Yoonhye said "My parents are classical musicians so they wanted me to be one too. But I liked popular music and I had some interest in becoming a broadcasting star. After going to live performances, I wanted to become a singer."
But her parents objected. Her parents tried to change her mind by saying "Won't you like to become the 2nd Kim Taehee by going to a good college? Also to people who are singers start from when they were kids so it'll be hard." But finally she convinced her parents and audtioned.
After getting her parents 1st approval, she faced another problem. Her weight. "That fact hit me hard . To loose weight, I excersized for many months and finally when I auditioned, I got in." said Yoonhye.
Even though Jung Yoonhye was young, she was able to lose 20kg. With her body now, we can't imagine her being overweight. She said, "There isn't a secret. All you have to do is to watch what your eating and excersize."
Yoonhye's first impression of the members wasn't that great, because of what they said to her. During that time, Yoonhye was sensitive since she was still trying to lose weight. The members said, "Later on, we realized that she's nice and likes to make jokes. She had a image of a quiet mystery girl."

It looks like Hero is going to be the next Tamra the Island, and by that I don’t mean in terms of subject matter, tone, or even ratings. I’m referring to the swift and massive response that both dramas have inspired, spurring fans to devote not just time and effort but actually money, as they take out their own advertising space to promote the drama.
In an effort to resuscitate the MBC drama (their words, not mine), which kicked off two weeks ago to a shaky start, the fan club has turned six public Seoul buses into advertising surfaces for the drama.
The buses have been plastered with Hero’s title and images and is being called “Lee Junki’s bus.” These vehicles travel lines in Seoul’s Galhyeondong and Yoido neighborhoods (No. 7613), the Yangjae station and Dongdaemun Gym (No. 407), and the Suwon and Bundang Seohyun stations (No. 720-1). The ads went up on December 1, and will remain on the buses until the drama wraps on January 13. The price tag? In the vicinity of 2 million won.
A rep from Lee Junki’s management company explained on the 2nd, “Junki-sshi is incredibly grateful. Last month, fans asked the company for permission to use the images on bus advertisements.” The drama is hoping to raise its 3%-5% ratings now that one Wednesday-Thursday competitor has bowed out (You’re Beautiful), as it heads into its third week of broadcasts.
Seriously, Korean fans amaze me (and frighten me, just a little). Not only are they incredibly passionate, they’re fast, organized, and pretty effective upon occasion. Kudos to them. This follows the project put together by overseas fans who folded and sent over 30,000 paper cranes — and by some other reports as many as 200,000 cranes — to Lee Junki to support the drama’s premiere.

Brian, formerly of the male duo Fly to the Sky, is getting ready for the North American market by releasing his comeback album simultaneously in the U.S. and Canada on December 10th. The singer’s representative announced on Monday that Brian’s second solo album in three years will be released through iTunes, the largest overseas online music store. Such unprecedented release was made possible by overseas album distributors who were impressed by the Korean balladeer’s musical talent. Sony Music Japan, which helped BoA make it into the American music market, has monitored Brian and gave high marks for his exceptional musical interpretation and vocal talent. In his new album Brian has expanded his musical scope, breaking out of the fixed mold of R&B style love songs and trying out the club music genre. Given that the album will be released in North America, three out of the 13 tracks in the album are in the English version. Even the album cover shows a new, bolder Brian, sporting a wild hairdo and an eye-catching black-and-red outfit.

An associate of the film said Kim has been picked to lead the cast of film "You're My Pet" opposite top actress Su-ae in the film directed by Kim Byung-gon.
