[News] CNBLUE comments on Strong Heart Scandal, more details


Boyband CNBLUE's Jung Yong Hwa was a guest on SBS Entertainment Program (Strong Heart) (MC Kang Ho Dong, Lee Seung Gi) that aired on the 9th. He revealed his embarassing story regarding his Pusan dialect.

On this day, Jung Yong Hwa revealed, "I saw this girl that caught my attention and I thought she was my ideal so I asked her out but later on we realized we were both from Pusan. I found out that she wanted to meet a Seoul guy who didn't use a dialect so she purposely didn't use a dialect either," sending the other guests and audience into laughter.

However, one netizen posted on the "comments" section of the show, "This story is the same as the story I sent to a radio talk program last year." He continued, "This is a story I posted on SBS radio (Cultwooshow)". I tried to look for it on the website but it's been deleted. I saw (Strong Heart) yesterday and was shocked."

At first, all the blame was poured on Jung Yong Hwa but the arrow has been pointed to (Kang Shim Jang)'s writing team and now it has turned to the staff. CNBLUE explained,"It's been awhile since Yonghwa filmed (Kang Shim Jang)" and continued, "It's ridiculous to say that he said someone else's story. It's a situation that he went through himself."

Moreover, besides Jung Yong Hwa's scandal, netizens are complaining as they wonder why Hweesung's story that was aired in the preview video last week was not included in the airing of the show on the 9th.

[news] Big Bang-2NE1 on Music Core...YG + MBC Reconciles?


YG Entertainment's idol groups Big Bang and 2NE1 will be on MBC's music program Music Core.

Their future appearance on the show is attracting attention because until now, MBC and YG have not been on particularly good terms.

A "Music Core" publicist announced on the 10th, "Big Bang's Daesung and Seungri as well as 2NE1 will be featured in the 200th special episode."

Big Bang's Daesung and Seungri will appear on the show for the first time in 11 months since they stopped MCing for Music Core. They will go back to their MC spots for this particular episode. 2NE1 plans to go on Music Core for the first time since debut, singing their single "Fire."

Big Bang, 2NE1, and other YG Entertainment artists did not appear on Music Core for about 11 months. 2NE1's appearance on MBC's variety show "Danbi" started the reconciliation between the two parties.

YG's head Yang Hyun Suk has explained before, "There are a lot of rumors about why we don't appear on certain TV stations. YG Entertainment's publicity outlook is appearing only once per week on broadcast. It has nothing to do with certain broadcasting companies."

But YG artists still did not appear on MBC shows and the rumors still continued. However, with this new announcement that Big Bang's Daesung and Seungri and 2NE1 will appear on Music Core, people are anticipating MBC and YG to fully reconcile.

On another note, the 200th special episode which will be February 20th, will also feature 2PM, SNSD, After School, Brown Eyed Girls, Lee Eunmi, Baek Ji Young, Kim Jong Gook, SHINee, C.N.Blue, and more artists all singing their debut singles.

[news] Jo Kwon Makes JYPE Proud


As they say, it is now the Jo Kwon phase. The audience are laughing and crying just by watching him.

Jo Kwon has settled a permanent position in various entertainment programs of different broadcasts stations - SBS 'Family Outing' season 2(which is set to air coming 21st), MBC's 'We Got Married' with Brown Eyed Girls Ga-in has a reality couple and 'SaeBaKwi', and KBS 'Star King.' Famous for his "Kkap Kwon Dance," Jo Kwon is making the audience laugh just by watching him perform.

JYPE founder, Park Jin Young, was startled the first time he saw the Kkap Kwon Dance and even commented, "Why are you doing this as a ballad singer?" He was also worried if their sadness in their future songs would not be conveyed efficiently with Jo Kwon's comical image. He was the first of his type in the company.

But JoKwon has proven JYP wrong after 2AM won the Mutizen Award for "Even If I Die, I Can't Send You Away."

Fans were touched by their voices and Jo Kwon never did let his Kkap Kwon image appear during his performances. Jo Kwon's endless tears after winning until the end of the song rerun worried the fans. The main reason why JYP was so worried was because Jo Kwon has been a trainee for 8 years and he wanted the best out of Jo Kwon - and he has done it.

The audience loves Jo Kwon for never putting on a mask during his performance, be it from the "Kkap Kwon" dance or in 'We Got Married.' They all agree that Jo Kwon is very professional when it comes to differentiating his parts as he is very serious when it comes to singing ballads and never allows or reminds the audience of his Kkap Kwon image.

Actually, JYP has been paying more attention on the success of 2AM rather than brushing on Jo Kwon's sense of entertainment. Now, it comes together as offers flock in for Jo Kwon and as he appears more on TV, the face of other members naturally does as well.

It is believed that it is because of all the frequent appearances in programs like 'We Got Married' that has featured 2AM members SeulOng, JinWoon and Changmin, that has contributed to the success of "Even If I Die, I Can't Let You Go" against SNSD's "Oh!"

Sometimes although producers want to fixate a certain image for their stars, the audience nowadays really just want a natural and nice idol to look up to. Jo Kwon has been so successful as he has been very real in his appearance, with genuine smiles and tears.

The Jo Kwon today isn't one who he has made himself to be, but an example of a serious celebrity.
