[news] U-ie busy with golf practice for Birdie Buddy ; Birdie Buddy finds new lead in Lee Da-hee


UEE busy with golf practice for Birdie Buddy


In anticipation for her second drama project, popstarlet-turned-actress UEE is completely immersing herself in golf practice for Birdie Buddy, where she plays a tomboy from Gangwon-do (where the series will film) who rises to success as a gifted golfer.

This is UEE’s first leading role after she played a manipulative popstar in last year’s You’re Beautiful. With Seo Ji-hye dropping out, one more female lead is still to be cast. Producers explained, “The role will be filled not by a singer like UEE, but an actress,” and expect to make the official announcement soon.

I was more interested when Seo Ji-hye was cast but not so much now, particularly because Lee Yong-woo (so wooden in Style) is the male lead. I won’t write it off entirely, since Birdie Buddy is a manhwa adaptation and the director Yoon Sang-ho has had experience successfully adapting a manhwa to the drama format (Tamra the Island). But I’m not feeling a lot of excitement, either.

Birdie Buddy begins filming with the child actors at the end of March; the adult actors will begin filming in April. This production will film mostly prior to airing, minimizing the live-shoot practice, and doesn’t yet have a broadcast date.

Birdie Buddy finds new lead in Lee Da-hee



Not to be confused with Chuno’s Lee Da-hae, actress Lee Da-hee has been selected as the lead in golf drama Birdie Buddy. She’ll join After School’s UEE as another gifted golfer, and takes over the role initially offered to and vacated by Seo Ji-hye.

Her character Hae-ryung is the daughter to the owner of a top golf resort and possesses “perfect golf skills”; thus Hae-ryung’s advantages contrast with the more humble background of UEE’s character Mi-soo. If you’re wondering who the “real” lead is, it isn’t specifically outlined but I had always assumed that it would be Seo Ji-hye, and now Lee Da-hee. (I may be wrong, but that’s what the description suggested to me; in any case, UEE is still considered a lead as opposed to a supporting role.)

Lee Da-hee had roles in 2007’s Legend and 2008’s Secret of Keu Keu Island; she also acted in movies Beyond All Magic and the more recent prison-choir film Harmony, which starred Kim Yun-jin. Or perhaps you’ll recognize her as Choi Ji-woo’s little sis in 2007’s Air City.

The Group Eight production will begin filming in Gangwon-do on March 25.

[news] DRESS WARMLY! from FNC Music


Hello.
This is the fanclub manager for FNC Music.

It is already the 4th week of March!
And next week will already be the last week of March.

It feels like its only been a few days since the new quarter started
But its already been a month.

Has everyone gotten accustomed to the new quarter yet?

It has to be a warm March with flowers blossoming...
But it has been cold temperatures and it even snowed today.

Since in weathers like this, there are more possibilities to get a cold,
So Primmadonnas, make sure to dress warmly.

Yesterday, along with HongKi's and JongHun's birthdays, we had a 1000 day party.
Even though there weren't too many primmadonnas present,
I prepared some pictures to share the emotions we had during the event.

There are rumors that primmadonnas were very excited
When HongKi and JongHun appeared with surprise gifts in the middle of the birthday party~~

With the fan meeting flowing smoothly and without any injuries for 2 hours
All the FT Island members were really happy as well.

Since it was the fan meeting before they left for Japan, they prepared a lot
But they were really sad that they couldn't show everyone!

So I tried to resolve the matter with some pictures.

Primmadonnas!
Be careful of the cold~
And make sure to encourage FT Island a lot! ^^

Thank you.

they have just released their 1st full album 'Thank U' which included songs
from their previous two mini albums and also with two new additional songs.

It was full house on the Live performance. The fans were cheering loudly
as the 4 members of CNBLUE made their appearances on the stage. The Live
was started off with the song 'Intro', followed by a light pop tune of 'Lets
Go Grazy' and 'Love Revolution'.

After the 4th Songs 'Wanna be Like U', Yong Hwa made the greetings in Japanese,
'Good evening, we are CNBLUE! Thank you so much for attending this Live
event. We will work hard till the end for this Live performance!' Follow
up is a fresh rock song 'Never too late' which is sang by Jong Hyun and
with his ultra impressive performance on his guitar solo brought the Live
to a new climax. Next is the song 'Now or Never' and also followed by a
full length Japanese lyrics song 'Voice' whereby fans wave their hands together
to the rapid sensational worldly feel of this song. Thereafter is a heavy

all the audiences responded and sang along. Thereafter, Yong Hwa sang two
english songs which had great influences in their music 'Let's Get Started' by
Black Eyed Peas and Maroon 5 'Harder to Breathe'. The entire hall was overwhelmed
with their outstanding performances.

Directly after the two cover english songs, Yong Hwa also sang the love

Right after this is Jong Hyun 'Teardrops in the rain' and with a final wrapped
up with the song 'One of a kind'. Before they left the stage, Jung Shin
said 'We are really very happy to be back in Japan again, today all of us
really enjoyed ourselves a lot. Thank you everyone for your support, the
next Live show has been decided and I promise that we will be back with
more better performances!'

Although the Live has ended but in order to satisfy the encore request,
the 4 members appeared on the stage once again. This time round they
performed another 3 songs including the Burning version of 'I'm a Loner'
and lastly with the ending song 'a.ri.ga.tou'. The hall was filled up
with full passion as the fans wave goodbye to the 4 members.

Due to the overwhelmed success of this Live show, they have decided to hold
another live show 'CNBLUE 1st Album Release Live Encore -Special Thanks'
on 16th April at Liquid room Ebisu. All eyes are now on this band as they continue
to progress and improve.
