This girl has poor fashion stylist and her MV looks like a product of 80’s, even her stage name sounds so 80’s, but they call her the girl version of Se7en. She can sing, i guess, but it’s pretty hard to find similarity between her and Se7en. Seems like she’s just another teenage artist like Min. Apparently, the 17 yo May Doni was once under YG and JYP as trainee, and got famous because of that. *pause*…well..yeah, whatever “that” is.
She officially debuted thru Music Bank on March 7, 2008 under the new label Neganetworks. Like some other stories we’re familiar with, she was born in America, moved back to SK for training, and of course like some other American-ish Korean artists we’re familiar with, lacking off in English department.
Her song 끌려 Ggeulyuh is part of Jo PD & Yoon Il-Sang’s Project Album titled PDIS. Jo PD was present to accompany her on stage.

They might look almost the same (Hee Chul’s a bit prettier…), but this guy Suh Kang Yoon attends credible school and sings in a band. as in real band, with people playing instruments and all that.
He gained his sudden popularity after appearing in M-Net’s X-Boyfriend in 2006 and crowned as “Seoul University’s Kim Hee Chul”. And he decides to extend his five-minutes of fame, as him and his rock band, “Napoleon Dynamite”, will soon release their first album
Until now, Kang Yoon was active in Hong Dong’s club scene and ranked #1 on various portal sites along with his guitarist.
Napoleon Dynamite band consists of Napoleon (Suh Kang Yoon, vocal), Paedelo (base), D (2nd guitarist), who have past experience performing and also won the 2006 University Gayo competition, along with Talmood (1st guitarist) and Choi Sun Seng (drums) to make a total of 5 members. Super Kid member Park Gwa Jang is the producer and together they will release their first album.
Their song, “Even if you don’t eat,” was also featured as the OST for the 2007 drama “Evasive Inquiry Agency.”
Napoleon Dynamite’s first album will consist of funky disco songs and ballads.
Another star look-alike who is using their popularity to enter the entertainment industry.
i won’t be happy if i were him, since everyone now will associate him as “The Hee Chul Resemblance”..huh..
well anyway, listen to their song 못먹어도Go! or….emmm… “Blah-Blah-Blah-Go!”, OST of Evasive Inquiry Agency, and decide whether he’s better or badder than Hee Chul. (see?even now i make him overshadowed by Hee Chul… )

Whatta boring sunday! so i switched the TV on, and watched Pops In Seoul (ah, it’s about time they have a new VJ..)..and guess what!new vid!~well, for me..
So it was T-Max. i searched the net, and Soompi have it all..and browsed a bit more for some side infos..
T-Max is a new boyband under Two Step Entertainment , just released their debut single “BLOOMING” on July 30th. ~We’re so sucked into SuShi that we don’t bother other debut groups..~
The 3-guy group, made up of Shin Min-chul, Park Yoon-ha and Kim Hyung-joon, was formed based on the idea of maximum, perfect harmony, as its name suggests. Their debut song is a J-pop style dance track about the moment that new love blooms. (arirang)
The three are :
Shin Min Chul
[date of birth]; February 5, 1982 [height/weight]; 178 cm / 63 kg [bloodtype]; O [school]; Otorohanga College, New Zealand [hobby]; Taking weird pictures, Watching movies [specialty]; Making accessories, Reforming clothes, Surfing [history];
+<Sangdoo, Let’s go to school (상두야 학교 가자)>, <(별난 여자 별난 남자)>, <(크러시기어)> OST featurings
+Featuring for <Sonin>
(Yey!English speaker!)
Kim Hyung Joon
[date of birth]; February 3, 1985 [height/weight]; 183 cm / 65 kg [bloodtype]; O [school]; Hangook University for foreigners?, chemistry major [hobby]; Playing on-line games, basketball [specialty]; Snowboarding [history];
+appearance on M.Net KKot Mi Nam Teuk Gong Dae [꽃미남 특공대]
+appearance on MBC <PD Soochup> [PD수첩]
(He loves dog? and he attends university for foreigners??hmm..we can have the chemistry…~lame spun, i know..otikee, it’s a boring Sunday T.T~)
Park Yun Hwa
date of birth]; January 31, 1986 [height/weight]; 175 cm / 52 kg [bloodtype]; AB [school]; Suwon University of Science [hobby]; Playing computer games, collecting accessories [specialty]; Computer programming, graphic design [history];
+A contestant of <Battle Shinhwa III>, sponsored by Good Entertainment and M.Net
(ok, so i chose the pics that show their best looks..)
J-style indeed, from the song, the voice, and even the shaved eyebrows. Apparently, they ARE big fans of the jap group ARASHI (uuh..JUUUNN!!)..in an interview, they show how they admire ARASHI :
Q. The writer of your title song said he will make TMAX the korean version of arashi.
A. For us, rather than being a group with the feeling of a Japanese group, if you just look at Arashi they’re like a group that gives off the feeling of being the ideal Japanese sons. We would also like to be that way, showing off a familiarity like them.
check out how big their devotion to ARASHI *They’re watching Arashi’s video, and seemed to love it, even printed out the lyrics, and when they didn’t manage to learn the dancing by themselves, they asked their teacher to teach them* :
and their particulars:
PETBOY PARK YUNHWA
+was an uhljjang.
+is always hungry.
+eats every 2 hours.
+is always tired.
SHIN YUHSA SHIN MINCHUL
+is different.
+loves to be on camera.
+talks a lot.
+has a unique fashion sense.
+has a finger puppet monkey named everererererere. (eh-ve-reh-reh-reh…..)
+first started leaving comments to t-max fans’ posts at the fan cafe.
+likes to leave comments on other members’ journal entries, often threatening them and revealing secrets.
MATSUMOTOHYUNGJUN KIM HYUNGJUN
+is surprisingly quiet off-camera.
+bit shin yuhsa’s everererererere.
+is at times even more.. different than minchul.
+can be found leaving weird comments to his fans’ posts.
pretty cute. i don’t understand why MinChul and HyungJun have two names, maybe it’s their real name..(Matsumoto Hyung Jun??is that his real name?or he’s just being too crazy over Jun Matsumoto?)
And if you’re wondering about the title of this post, check out their MV for their debut single “Blooming”, prepare your shades, ladies and gentlemen!
woohoo..those smiles..heellloo sunshine! *putting on my shades*
that funny voice at the beginning is YunHwa’s, very j-style. They don’t have the magnificent dance, but no problemo for me, when it comes to dance, i only dig for b-boys (no singing, lads, just focus on your body.) I’m not really into the song too, but it’s quite refreshing. The only thing that sounds cool is the rap, and the only one who looks cool is the rapper, the other two look kinda feminine in the video.

People, how many times do we hear America is the land where all dreams come true?well, America now has a rival. It’s South Korea. Yep, it’s where everyone can be everything. Today, we’ll have a lesson on how to reach your Korean (Entertainment) Dreams.
It’s an old issue, yeah, we all know that those (well, maybe most of) Kcelebs’ looks are nothing more original than a made-in-China Phrada or Louise Vuitton bag.
(Be frank people, you must be thinking you are a lot prettier than these babes’ old looks, aren’t you? well, same here.)
what’s with all these huge make-overs?really, i used to think that there was nothing to be fuss about, that plastic beauty is totally natural in the business, but hey, allow me to spit it out as i have an access to a blog. a famous one, that is.
So let’s see what these celebs have to earn their tags as, well, celebs. Maybe we can learn something from them.
what do you expect from your idols? Me? i want my idols to have all in a package. The talent and the figure. And i want them real. (you, our smart and sensible readers, won’t buy “That’s the magic of Bobbi Brown and MAC” thing, will you? i’ve seen such naive comments, but we all know, to make a before-after look of dear Sunny, whose previous look wasn’t as sunny as it is today, Bobbi Brown must be an alum of Hogwarts School Of Make-Ups)
so, circle lenses are not enough, eh?ooh no, they need permanent bigger eyes (for clearer visions?perhaps…) so long for natural/traditional beauty…plastic is natural now.
Not that there’s no true natural looks, if we dig deep enough, sure we can find those real beauties. I won’t mention the ladies, we all know who the minorities are. But check out Mr. Rain. (Well, i won’t say he’s a beauty, but he’s okay.) I’m not sure if he’s ever done anything to his unsymmetrical slanted eyes, but wow, who can count how many diehard ahjummas he has.
*some invincible hand slapped me on the face*
Ok, diehard FANS.
see? sometimes being real and original won’t hurt. Especially when you don’t have any sewings on your face.
and now i wonder how much they paid Kim Ah Jung for her real-life story to be put on the widescreen of 200 Pounds Of Beauty.
(shocked?don’t be. i made it up. joking. Laugh, people!laugh!)
Uhm Jung Hwa
Now, now, this whole thing can’t be just about physical figure, isn’t it? of course not. Good looks, real or fake, would be just a boring accessories if you don’t have the aura. They say Lee Hyori is a natural beauty (well, there goes the relativity of natural. I’d say Ganguro look -afro look, popular in Japan- is definitely not a natural way to define beauty, but guess natural of Lee Hyori meaning no knife). And, she has the aura. now read carefully.
For me, she combines the aura of sex appeal and , not necessarily stupid, but dumb, yes. Who would believe a person who said “I will use my sexiness to conquer Japan” has an IQ high enough to count her pride?not me.
And that way, she’s not boring. oh yeah, she’s not.
Of course, that’s not the only choice of aura. It’s a tentative matter. You can be smart, elegance, snob, bitchy, holy, whatever. Just don’t be plain.
Shim Eun Kyung a korean actress admits that she cannot see anything from her left eye because of an accident that took place while she was filming the movie JoPokManura(TOugh WIfe)!!!Scary!!!But, still she told all her fans that she was okay and there was no problem in her regular lifestyle!!!Let’s all wish her luck in getting back her sight of her left eye.

LOL~ i am even more bored ^^ Here is another girl, now at the age 28 came out on May 17 after 6 years of hiatus … with her 5th album titled ‘Windows of my Soul’
What is she having to say for her comeback?
“I had problems with my former agency. I spent four or five years crying, drinking and playing,” she said. “Oh, and since I did some exercise to lose weight and fixed my teeth with braces, I guess you could say I invested some time for beauty, too.” Feeling uncertain about her future, she sent her resume to a foreign advertising agency. She didn’t get the job — the company wasn’t impressed by the title ‘Singer Yangpa.’ “I could have succeeded if I used the people I know in broadcasting and the music industry. If I got in there, I’d be advertising fast-food stores or government projects.”
Making her debut in 1997 as a high school singer, Yangpa quickly rose to popularity. “I think people found it strange that a little girl was singing pop ballads,” she said. She was even referred to as a pop idol. “I hated being called a pop idol at the time, but now I sometimes think I was very happy then. It’s a great gift when a singer earns unconditional love from her fans. I don’t think my voice is technically superior, but I can move people’s hearts.” On the Internet, netizens react to even the briefest updates of Yangpa’s life. “I think the long wait of six years has endeared me even further to my fans,” she said.

I saw her showcase on TV couple days ago … out of people showed up i did spotted Eru there ^^ it was not all that glamerous showcase by the way .. we might see some videos later .. not to be mean or anything but it was rather getto-ish .. oh well i mean in comparesion to Rain’s showcase LOL!
But in her showcase … she just wore that red dress and intentionally showing her bare back at the audience the whole time *red face* i donno what was all that supposed to mean …. then later changed her outfit to pants and did some dance moves with some other songs … It wasn’t all that impressive to be honest … but her voice is always filled with good old memories ^^

People, I was watching episode 7 of Goong S ( I’m quite a fan now! ) that all of sudden this Hottie showed up with his British Accent! Why no one speaks about him! Who is this guy! Any clue!? Is he half Korean like Daniel Henney and Dennis O? Any one?
