Netizens Select the Idols Who Best Resemble Comic Book Characters

A website recently asked its visitors to name the idols whom they believed look most like they had just walked out of a comic. The results, while very varied and surprising, were definitely quite interesting!
In 10th place was FT Island’s Lee Hongki. Maybe it was his long golden locks of hair and pretty-boy looks that did the trick?

Kim Hyun Joong acting again

SS501 leader Kim Hyun Joong who showed off his acting skills or lack thereof on Boys Over Flowers is rumored to star in another Japanese drama remake (or possibly movie) titled You're My Pet.

This drama better known as Kimi wa petto in Japan, was a very popular drama in 2003 and originally based off a manga (comic). The basic premise is that of a female editor (Su-Ae playing Ji Eun Ee) at a fashion magazine whom finds a good looking young man that ran away from home (Kim Hyun Joong playing Kang In Ho). When she finds him, she invites him to live with her in her home and she calls him "her pet."

Since this drama (or rumored movie) lacks the star power of an F4, I don't know if it'll be really popular. But I'm curious to see if Kim Hyun Joong will improve on his acting skills from Boys Over Flowers. Some of his scenes were cringe-worthy at times so I hope he gets a lot better. Thanks to shineebyul for the tip and remember to visit the Quiante501 Forums.

Kim Hyung Joon Reassures Fans

After hearing the news of SS501's leader being diagnosed with H1N1, it's only natural that fans would become very concerned about the future of their leader and his group.

Fortunately for fans and concerned netizens, fellow member Kim Hyung Joon was present at the ‘Find it! Green Gold’ press conference and appeased any worries. He stated, "We are absolutely fine now. I was really surprised when I heard of the news that Hyun Joong hyung was infected with H1N1 influenza. I knew that Hyun Joong hyung could not return from Japan because of H1N1 influenza through news reports. Even though we didn’t talk (over the phone) to each other, I heard he is getting better in health. His condition is getting much better and seems that he will be able to resume his activities within 2 weeks’ time."

So the recovery time has been reduced from one month down to two weeks? That's almost too good to be true, but let's remain optimistic! We all wish for Kim Hyun Joong's speedy recovery and return to Korea!

In the meantime, magnae Kim Hyung Joon, along with Super Junior's Shin Dong, 2AM's Jo Kwon, and Fly to the Sky's Brian, will be hosting a brand new SBS variety program called 'Find it! Green Gold' focusing on the envirornment. For those interested, the show will air on September 14.

Kim Hyun Joong Says Kim Bum is Best F4 Pretty Boy

On a recent broadcast of MBC Good Day, SS501 leader and Boys Over Flowers star Kim Hyun Joong picked cutie pie Kim Bum as his choice for "Best Pretty Boy in F4."
He explains, "Pretty boy refers to one who has more of a feminine side than a masculine side. I can’t say that I am one." He then jokingly adds, "I'm a pretty boy all the time when I put on makeup.”

Um...WHAT?! I don't know who misinformed him, but Kim Hyun Joong, you are most definitely a pretty boy. I'm not sure if he was referring to Kim Bum being a better pretty boy on-screen or off-screen out of the four F4 members, but either way, I would say Hyun Joong's got Kim Bum beat when it comes to prettiness.

Kim Hyung Joon is Quite the Ladies’ Man

While filming for MBC's God of Cookery Expedition, SS501's Kim Hyung Joon revealed that he received confessions from 2 female artists.

As food was being prepared for them, MC Jung Joon Ha asked Hyung Joon if he had ever dated a female artist before, to which he simply replied no. The MCs then asked if he ever received any love confessions. This time, his reaction was less cool and collected and he was left too flustered to answer. With enough prying from the MCs, Hyung Joon eventually revealed that he had 2 confessions from female artists that are active in various fields of entertainment.

Kim Shin Young further fueled the fire by stating, "I think I know who she is."

Tune in and you just might find out who those 2 ladies are!

SS501’s Hyung Joon Says “Hey Girl”

This time up for their trailer release is SS501's Kim Hyung Joon and in comparison to the other trailers, I'd say he's running third now after Kyu Jong. The video has the same look to all the rest obviously, except with this one, he has a girl and he looks as vampire-ish as ever.

For you SS501 lovers, some goodies will be included in your purchase: a poster of the boys which was shot in Las Vegas and well as a 20-minute drama-style musical. I'm kind of psyched to see the finished product and hope that it comes out soon and stops all of this teasing.... Stay tuned!

U-Kiss Kim KiBum, “Hyung Kim HyungJoon is my role model”

In the current trend of making idol groups, there is always another new and powerful idol groups coming up. In the ‘multi-national’ group, special article of ‘Brother of SS501’s Kim HyungJoon is in it’ catches the eye.

All 6 members of U-Kiss came together in December 2007. Even though they released their first single ‘I am not young’ last year, it failed to meet their expectations. Their recently released mini album ‘Talk To Me’ wiped away their slump from their first single, and the initial response is good.

Distinguished as a ‘multi-national’ group, it is interesting to first look at the members who formed this group. Shin SooHyun & Kim KiBum are locals. Alexander is born in HongKong, Kevin in USA, Eli studied in China. Alexander who is very interested in languages, has a good command of 7 languages including Cantonese, Pekingese, English, Spanish, etc. DongHo studied in Beijing for 4 years and can speak really fluent Mandarin. They had to use their body language initially when they were unable to communicate with language.

“We had a lot of trivial misunderstandings initially because we are not able to communicate between the members. Now, we help each other in learning languages.”

SS501 Kim HyunJoong’s younger brother KiBum has strong support from his brother. His brother is still his biggest supporter now. Giving him pocket money when he asks for and encouraged him by saying ‘If you work hard, it will turn out well”.

“My brother is my role model. One day, together with my grandmother, I read the diary that my brother had written during his days as a trainee. I knew that the success of my brother today is because he had a lot of difficulties during his trainee days. After I read that, I see my brother as even more fantastic person.”
