[NEWS] F.cuz, ‘We cast off the burden of being 2nd generation idols’!



Garnering interest even before their debut, idol group F.cuz (Jinon, Lee U, Kan, Yejun) has officially debuted and is taking a stab at the music industry.

They can’t look any happier than when they sing their fresh youthful debut-song ‘Jiggy.’ On the day of the interview, despite the fact that Kan had injured his leg and was wearing a cast, he smiled saying, “I’m so happy to release and promote this album.”

# Within 3 minutes our whole lives…

They still remember their debut stage very clearly. They’ve prepared for 2 whole years but in those short 3 minutes and 10 seconds it felt like they revealed their whole lives. Even though they felt it might’ve been in vain they did not cry. They probably won’t ever forget what their debut stage was like.

This newly debuted group is filled with ambition. Lee U is very playful and likes talking so he’ll probably do well in variety programs. Kan is very masculine but has an off-the-wall charm. Leader Jinon wants to approach fans as a ‘simple guy’ or ‘pleasant guy.’

Their love for youngest member Yejun is especially particular. The members smiled proudly, calling Yejun their team’s mascot. “He is so unbelievably cute when he smiles!”

# Supernova, a good experience

Leader Jinon was originally a member of Supernova. I wonder how he remembers the experience. He shared, “Right now the background is helping me in many ways. Like, I have experience of living in a dorm, so as a leader I have a lot to share. Also because I’ve been the youngest before I understand how difficult it can be. So I want to make sure our team’s magnae Yejun never feels hurt for being the youngest.”

He added, “I said, ‘Let’s make it to the top together without any dropouts’ and I think the dongsengs are following me well.”


# We don’t feel so burdened anymore!

Lee U was already known pre-debut for being Sul Woon-do’s son. Being a 2nd generation celebrity can be a blessing but it can also be a curse.

About this Lee U said, “At first because of prejudice against second generation celebrities, there were some misunderstandings and some did not approve of me. But these days it’s gotten a lot better. The disapproval is not as sharp anymore. Now I think I prefer it this way; my father gives me a lot of advice.”

Actually Lee U used to look at his father who is a singer, and think, “I better not become a singer.” This is because he felt resentful due to his father always being too busy to be home. But then in his first year of middle school he saw his father performing a concert and saw that his father glowed. After that he realized that while the job of a singer is difficult it has its benefits. He knew that the road to becoming a singer would not be easy. His father opposed. But seeing his son working hard persistently, he eventually gave his consent.

# Fun dorm life

Right now members of F.cuz are living together in a dorm. At first they could not even imagine living together. But after the decision was made and they met and talked, it felt like meeting family that they had known for 2, 3 years. Because they communicate well and have similar personalities they are having a great time together. Living in a dorm feels like filming a fun variety program.


# Our charms

Next we had an opportunity for them to shamelessly boast their individual charms. We didn’t realize how quickly time passed as they blatantly listed them one by one without thinking to be shy.

Yejun, “I think I’m a man with a beautiful smile. People really don’t like when my face is expressionless so I try to always laugh. And I think my hands are nice.” (Haha)

Kan, “I think I have 1000 faces. My image changes according to how I’m styled. And my honey thighs are attractive and I’m the strongest.” (This is embarrassing)

Lee U, “Hmm, should I say my charm is my smiling-eyes and my small face? (Haha) And people do say that I play the piano well.”

Jinon, “Like my cherry lips, sharp nose, and Jjang-goo-like thick eyebrows? But it’s really embarrassing to say this with my own lips. And I think I look good in a suit.”

F.cuz has made their goal this year to become closer with fans. While winning the newcomer award would be great, their main goal is to concentrate on their activities while showing their unique colors and personalities. F.cuz has a lot left to show us, and this is only the beginning.

[NEWS] Gyuri meets her "ex-boyfriend" after 10 years.



On KBS 2TV 'Sweet Night's corner 'Sweet Meeting!" broadcasted on February 28, girl group Kara's Park Gyuri reunited with her "ex-boyfriend" Podong from the show 'Sonagi' after 10 years!

Park Gyuri reunited with her old friend 'Podong', Kim Youngdae. They acted together on the show 'Sonagi', corner of MBC's old variety show 'Today is a Good Day!'. On that show, Park Gyuri starred as Podong's girlfriend. It's been 16 years since they filmed 'Sonagi' together and 10 years since Park Gyuri last saw Kim Youngdae. Kim Youngdae got popularity by giving the viewers a lot of laughs when he acted along Kang Hodong 16 years ago.

Park Gyuri expressed she missed him by saying: "I wasn't able to meet Kim Youngdae for 10 years". Because of that, the staff of 'Sweet Night' contacted Kim Youngdae to make the reunion come true but when they met, Park Gyuri seemed surprised at how much Podong had changed. The little chubby Podong grew up to become a tall handsome young man.

Afer seeing the tall and handsome 23 years old Kim Youngdae, the hosts and the other Kara members said to him: "Do you have a girlfriend?" "You two should date!".

Kim Youngdae, who was on a break from his military service that day, appeared on the show wearing his military uniform and explained about his appearance change: "When I was to enter highschool, I lost almost 30kgs to become an actor." And revealed: "I'll be discharged from military service on the 5th of March". To this, Park Gyuri said: "(Youngdae) grew up well." while smiling embarrassedly.

Kim Youngdae continued: "I'm happy to meet again like this. I wish success for Kara's new album." and also revealed his personal dream by saying: "I'm eager to start acting again".

[NEWS] JYPE "2PM's six members are the victims"


JYPE, who had a meeting with the fans after announcing that 2PM’s leader Jaebum has officially ended his contract after leaving the group and returning to the US for saying bad things about Korea, revealed that the rest six members were the victims. On February 27th from 3PM to around 7PM, 2PM’s six members and JYPE’s representative Jung Wook had a meeting with the 2PM fans at Seoul Munjung-dong Garden Five.

On February 28th at around 12:20AM, 2PM fans posted up on their fan café ‘Hottest’ the content and other regards of this meeting.

Based on this summary, Rep Jung Wook revealed about the ‘serious personal mistake’ that was listed as the reason on the message from February 25th about Jaebum’s contract termination: After this situation occurred, I didn’t want the six members to become traitors. The rest six members are more important than just one member.”

Rep Jung Wook also said, “We couldn’t write a lie that would be read by all citizens of Korea,” and explained, “If we look at it schematically, the other six members are victims and if we do not tell the truth, there will be continuous questions about it so we revealed the reason as ‘a serious personal mistake.’

Especially Rep Jung said, “JYPE isn’t responsible for personal lives of the celebrities of our company, and I think Park Jaebum should be entirely in charge of what happened,” and he repeatedly claimed, “If we look at it schematically, Park Jaebum is the offender and the rest six members of 2PM are the victims.”

In response to the message revealing that the reason is simply ‘a serious personal mistake,’ Rep Jung Wook asserted, “We didn’t want it to be disclosed but because there is a person related to the problem so even if JYPE doesn’t do it, I think there is a possibility the problem will be revealed. So, there is entirely no blame for the victims.”

Jaebum was in risk after the netizens found out on September 5, 2009 that Jaebum posted up messages such as “I want to leave Korea” on his MySpace, an American Social Networking site, in 2005.

In response, the fans did many protests and boycotts and other various works for his comeback. However, on February 25th, JYPE revealed that Jaebum, who is in the US after leaving the team last year because netizens found out about his criticizing of Korea, has permanently ended his contract. JYPE explained, “The reason is a part of Jaebum’s personal life so we can’t reveal it, resulting in the decision to terminate his contract.”
