"Daesung was discharged this morning. The surgery was a success, however he must still recover. Daesung should not move his back, therefore he will not be coming back for activities as of now."

4Minute gets banned by KBS!

4Minute who will be releasing their first mini-album "For Muzik," on the 31st, has just been banned by KBS!

KBS has determined that 4Minute's track "I won't give (안줄래)," has inappropriate lyrics.

Specifically these lyrics (오늘부터 너 한테 나 안줄래/ 이제 다신 내 맘 전부 안줄래/ 이젠 다시 너한테는 안 줄래~):

"Starting from today, I won't give myself to you / Now, I will never give you my entire heart / Now, I won't ever give myself to you."

Cube Entertainment stated:

"The lyrics for 'I won't give' is about the pure feelings of a girl to a guy. We are very disappointed that the lyrics were deemed inappropriate."

Ouch! I personally don't think it's that bad, but it does have a slight sexual innuendo.

Lee Min Jung considered for female lead in G-Dragon’s MV?

Those of you who have seen the hit drama Boys Over Flowers must surely remember actress Lee Min Jung, who played Gu Jun Pyo's annoying fiancee. Well, apparently she turned down an offer to act as the female lead in G-Dragon's Heartbreaker MV.

Rather than appearing in G-Dragon's MV, Lee Min Jung decided to star in the music video for a newcomer group called December. According to December's agency, CS Happy Entertainment, "Before Lee Min Jung became popular, she was in Zia’s ‘Violin’ MV. Because she was so grateful for that opportunity, she decided to also star in December’s MV. She was not aware at first that she had been offered the chance to star in G-Dragon's video. We're grateful since it's rare these days for stars to turn down such big offers."

Because the filming schedules for the two MV offers clashed, Lee Min Jung went with December instead of G-Dragon, causing netizens to question her choice.

What do you guys think about her decision?

Yunho’s first attempt at stunt work

Yunho/U-Know has been busy filming the drama Heading to the Ground, which requires him to do some stunt work in addition to acting and looking hot on screen.

For one particular stunt scene, two mattresses were placed at the bottom of a pool of water. Yunho was then asked to throw himself into the water, a scene that took five hours (as a well as a toll on his body) to film. The cast and crew members on set were impressed with Yunho's first attempt at a stunt act. He showed a lot of enthusiasm for the stunt production despite the intense work it took to film those scenes.

Teasers for Heading to the Ground were recently released. The drama is scheduled to start airing on September 9th.

2PM has a question for you

Yes, you--the one sitting in front of the computer, constantly checking for 2PM updates and shamelessly rewatching Wild Bunny episodes. Listen up because your favorite dorky beasts have some questions they'd like you to answer.

In a recent interview with Nate News, the 2PM boys revealed that they were curious about three things and would like netizens to help clear things up. Their three questions were as follows:

1. "We've noticed the increasing love from fans. We're really thankful for all the love and support, but we would like to know WHY. What are 2PM's strong points as singers?"
--Junho

2. "2PM is always showing fans our real selves. But even so, fans still want to know our true characters. Why would they want to know about our private lives? We're just the way we're portrayed."
--Chansung

3. "Whenever I watch shows on tv, a lot of people say that they're fans of mine. But when I leave the office or attend fan events, not many people give me presents or seem excited to see me. Is that because I'm a difficult person to approach?"
--Nichkhun

These questions are really quite easy, to be honest.

1. They make good music and do super cool dance moves. They're not absolutely flaaaming. Oh, and I suppose the sexiness is a nice plus.
2. Because we're obsessed.
3. Your good looks are too intimidating.

See? Easy.

Alright, fangirls and fanboys! Your turn. Answer away.

TVXQ to suspend group activities

It's no surprise to hear of this outcome but perhaps they were just delaying the announcement to cushion the blow.

TVXQ will be suspending their group activities pretty soon after completing all their planned schedules. This is largely due to the lawsuit filed by JaeJoong, YooChun and Junsu against SM Entertainment for their slavery contract to be amended.

As spoke in the aftermath of the lawsuit, TVXQ will complete their planned schedules before the lawsuit was filed which will end on 29th August. Beyond that, TVXQ will be taking a "vacation", with regards to group activities, although solo activities will continue.

There are still two live performances for fans to catch TVXQ together as a group before their vacation, the first being A-Nation in Osaka, Japan and their Shanghai concert.

The court has already heard both sides of the story from SM Entertainment and the TVXQ trio (JaeJoong, YooChun and Junsu) earlier. Although the court has advised both parties to sit down and settle their differences, it's kind of unlikely that a solution would be reached at this juncture. The ruling of the case will be decided on 11th September, where fans all over the world would be glued to their computers, hoping that TVXQ will still exist as a group.

ALWAYS keep the faith, Cassiopeians!

Changmin is focused for “Paradise Meadow”

Despite the turmoil going on between the group and their management company, TVXQ maknae Changmin still keeps a level head and focuses on his next mission - starring in a drama. "For this debut, I want to execute it perfectly," he says.

During any free time he gets, while on planes flying back and forth between Japan and Korea, Changmin is always found reading and rehearsing his script. "Truthfully, the recent crisis has began to wear on him... but since acting has been something he has wanted to do for a while, this seems to be a good motivation for him," says his assistant. "He has been showing a lot of excitement in preparing for this drama."

Personally I can't wait to see Changmin and his cute pinchable cheeks (let your imaginations run wild with that one) in a drama. He may not have the sex appeal of his fellow brethren, but eye candy is eye candy... I'm not complaining

M-Flo’s “Been So Long” preview featuring Jaejoong and Micky

For Japanese group M-Flo's 10th Anniversary Tribute Album, they gathered together a group of popular artists to commemorate 10 years of good music!

Some of the artists on the album are Marie, Mison, Simizu Shota, Beni... ok, I'll get to the point--TVXQ's own Young-woong Jaejoong and Mickey Yoochun have a spot on the album singing a song called "Been So Long." I have to say even though I've only heard 49 seconds of the song, I already like it. Jaejoong's voice sounds absolutely heavenly and I'm sure Mickey's will sound just the same.

Artists on the album:
Aoyama Teruma – "Come Again"
BENI – "Love or Truth"
COMA-CHI – "Planet Shining"
Jaejoong and Yoochun from Tohoshinki – "Been So Long"
Marie – "Comeback to Me"
May J.& JONTE – "Miss You"
Misono – "Simple & Lovely"
Shimizu Shota – "Let Go"
YU-A – "The Love Bug"
Nisino – "Yours Only"

Super Junior M To Make September Comeback?

The latest word in the rumor mill has it that Super Junior's third spawn subgroup, SJ-M, will be making a comeback on September 10 in Shanghai! One of the Chinese members, Zhoumi, supposedly confirmed in a response to a fan that the seven-man group was in Korea and that recording was already finished. We have yet to hear an official statement on this, but there's enough talk to beckon a bit of curiosity.

Even if this turns out to be a fanmade rumor, I daresay it's time for SM Ent to put some focus on its other groups. SM's been dabbling its groups in foreign affairs, with international girl group f(x), SHINee, SNSD and DBSK; poor Super Junior M has been pretty quiet for 2009 thus far. This may be wishful thinking, but I'd like to see SJ-M, CSJH etc make true comebacks within the year. I myself am not a huge on these groups, but they undoubtedly have fan followings that are probably frustrated with their stars seemingly being put on the backburner. Is anyone else anticipating the return of this Korean-Chinese boy group, or CSJH for that matter?

Daesung to be discharged from hospital

Big Bang's Daesung will most likely be discharged from the hospital on the 29th!

Earlier, YG Entertainment had stated that it could be as early as the 27th or the 28th, but they are being cautious, to make sure Daesung is in good enough condition to leave the hospital.

YG Entertainment stated:

"The operation was a success. There shouldn't be a huge issue with Daesung being discharged, as long as he doesn't move his back."

We wish Daesung a speedy recovery and we will update on the status of his discharge as soon as we hear.

Yunho and Go Ara’s ‘Heading to the Ground’ Teasers

As fans of Yunho are dying from the anticipation of his upcoming drama Heading to the Ground, instead of relying on fancams and stalker pictures, MBC has finally released two official short teasers.

The first one includes shots of Yunho's soccer skills, his shirtless body, some dancing, and interactions with Go Ara while the second teaser has some of the previous footage and lots of sweaty Yunho. Looks like the drama will be full of eye candy for all you Cassiopeians. The drama will begin airing on September 9th and there will be 16 episodes.

Crebeau suing SM Entertainment as well?

According to Sharing Yoochun, the cosmetic company Crebeau is suing SM Entertainment. Crebeau is the cosmetics company in which TVXQ / DBSK / Tohoshinki members Micky, Xiah, and Jaejoong are partial-investors in.

Crebeau is suing SME for libel, basically saying that SM Entertainment is making Crebeau look bad when SM Entertainment stated that the main conflict with the 3 DBSK members was over the cosmetic issue (investment into the company). When in actuality it's about the unfair distribution of income and terminating their contract.

All these lawsuits are getting out of hand, hopefully everything can be resolved soon.

Lee Minho + Sandara Park getting together?

There's been reports / rumors going around that Boys Over Flowers star Lee Min Ho and 2NE1's Sandara Park will be getting together... to film a CF (Commercial Film). The CF will be for Cass Beer and there hasn't been any confirmation besides Lee Min Ho's official schedule stating he was filming for Cass on August 25th and word of mouth from people who were near the set.

Lee Min Ho and Sandara Park were both spotted together in Gangnam, Seoul. They were filming various scenes of Lee Min Ho. He was surrounded by female extras spraying beer on each other, running down a street with other extras, and getting in a red Ferrari F430 Spider with Sandara Park in the passenger seat. The last tidbit someone actually took a small photograph and shared it with everyone.

Sandara Park was in the Philippines a few weeks ago and on a TV show there she was specifically asked if she ever met Lee Min Ho (who seems to be popular in southeast asia), and she said No. Now if the rumor turns out to be true, not only has she met him but she'll actually film a CF with him. It's pretty cool how these things happen, thanks to exoticprincess for the tip.

Kara’s In Demand

With the Kara mania spreading rapidly in Japan, it's no surprise that even with all that overseas promotion talk, these ladies are still very much in demand in their home as well.

The girls have released their 2nd full length album 'Revolution' and scored double hits with "Wanna" and "Mister" and they're definitely not stopping there. Because of their widespread appeal, ranging from teenage girls to middle-aged folks, expect to see about five future ramyun and clothing CFs from these girls. They have just finished recording a few of those and are in the process of perhaps filming some more. Hooray for having the opportunity to catch the girls' cute and bubbly personalities before they head over to Japan! Then again, who knows, maybe DSP Entertainment might have the girls filming some Japanese CFs as well during their promotional time during their end of the year promotions.

Kim Joon is back with T-MAX!

T-MAX will be returning with a concert after 2 long years and luckily for them, with Kim Joon's recent popularity through Boy over flowers, things are looking good!

3 member band T-MAX will be returning on August 28th, 2009 at 7:30PM KST to put on their first Korean concert at the Seoul YoungDeungPo Art Hall. Prior to this concert, the band put on a concert in May in Japan at the Harajuku Astro Hall, called "T-MAX First Live." They even held concerts in Taiwan and Hong Kong, to establish themselves as a "Hallyu band."

T-MAX's label Planet 905 stated:

"Because of T-MAX's overseas activities, there wasn't many opportunities to meet with domestic fans. With this event, we are hoping T-MAX can meet with domestic fans once again. T-MAX will also be preparing a surprise event for this concert, so we hope fans will highly anticipate it."

Who's a T-MAX fan? And if you are, it is just because of Kim Joon's BOF fame?

[TRANS] 090314 Taegoon's interview about Jaejoong

Newly debuted singer TaeGoon is interviewed on a magazine: (parts that are not about Jaejoong have been taken out of the translation)


Q: Jaejoong’s appearance in [Call Me] has been a hot topic recently. Everyone knows that you and Jaejoong had been friends since a very young age. Then, what was the reason for that Jaejoong agreed to make his appearance in the MV?

A: I called Jaejoong and told him that “I’m going to debut soon, I wish that you’d be able to appear in my MV.” Unexpectly, jaejoong said “Sure, I’ll talk it over with my company” and hung up. After a few hours, he called me back and told me that he would be in the MV. Afterwards I found out that it took him a lot of work to convince his company to let him make his appearance. I’m very thankful for him. After debut, Jaejoong and I still talk on the phone and he gave me many tips regarding performing on stage.

Q: What kind of friend is Jaejoong like?

A: A lot of people are like this, even though they are very close friends, they fight easily--jaejoong and I are exactly like that (laughs). When we were filming the MV, we are always joking around with each other. We don’t see each other as “celebrities,” if we did, it would be very hard to be true friends.

Q: In the MV, Park Shin Hye played the role of a bad woman, what would you do if this kind of situation happened in real life?

A: In the MV, Jaejoong hyung stole Shin Hye from me (sighs), jaejoong’s handsomeness is to blame! (laughs). I think that making a girlfriend be a normal friend is a very hard thing to do, I would never be the first to say that I don’t like her or anything like that, but if someone that handsome steals my girlfriend, it seems like I wouldn’t be able to say anything (laughs)!
