Ahn Jaehwan, Choi JinShil, Jang JaeWon, Kim JiHoo. RIP
The Entertainment World has gone in to shock again, due to the sudden trend of suicide amongst those in the limelight.
Model Kim Ji-Hoo is the latest amongst those taking their own lives, the 23 year old Model seemed to have committed suicide in the same manner as the late Choi JinShil, who took her own life on the 2nd. Kim JiHoo followed her example on the morning of the 6th, when his body was found in the morning, also in the bathroom.
Kim JiHoo born on the 11th of July 1985, gained a lot of attention after modelling in a Fashion Show in 2007 and was labelled as “one to watch”, he took part in many reality TV series’.
Transgender celebrity Jang JaeWon(27) also committed suicide on the 3rd. She came out on an SBS show in 2007, declaring that “3 years ago I was a man”, and has gotten remote popularity from that show, having a small net following on her Cyworld.
May they all Rest in Peace, our hearts and condolences go out to their poor suffering families and friends.
Please God don’t let this be a “Who next” type of trend. It is enough that this has passed on to the non-celeb citizens and the count of suicide has gone up.
To our patient readers who have only shown us kindness… Sorry for the lack of updates, we will be more dedicated in future to giving more updates to the blog. Our forums is where we’ve mainly been updating, nevertheless we will be giving more attention to the blog from now on. So in that respect I will be rounding up some news in one post to get us a little up to date.
Choi JinShils Suicide
Another sad and depressing piece of news has rocked the entertainment industry. Choi JinShil the talented actress and mother of two was found dead on the morning of the 2nd of October. Ms. Choi had committed suicide in the bathroom and was discovered by her mother. Apparently, one of the causes of her suicide was lending money to the late Ahn JaeHwan, who also committed suicide last month. Our heartfelt condolences go out to her family and two children, rest in peace Choi JinShil. I came to adore Choi JinShil for her role in 장밋빛 인생 (also known as My Rosy Life), and kept an eye out for her appearances in other dramas, she is truly a great loss to the acting community.
Cast for Hana Yori Dango FINALLY revealed!
Just as the last ounce of interest was about to leave, they announce the F4 lead characters, yet no news on the lead girl. Anyhow, earlier this week Group 8 kindly let us know who will be starring in their ever-so-special Korean version of the Japanese mange “Hana Yori Dango” (Boys over Flowers). F4s Domyouji Tsukasa will be Lee MinHo, Hanazawa Rui is Kim HyunJoong (shock horror), Nishikada Sojiroh is Kim Bum and Mimisaka Akira is Kim Joon. After all this time, you would think that they would blow us away with a high profile cast, nevertheless I am remotely interested after seeing the list. The acting I imagine will be somewhat decent considering two of the boys are actors, whatever happened to all those idols auditioning? What next? The female lead please.
BoA needs her lunch
Whether this entire song is a play on little Miss.Kwon BoAs name we don’t know, but BoAs debut song for the US has been leaked? Released? With SM and Kpop artists/entertainment companies I really don’t know anymore. Check out BoAs American debut single “Eat You Up” though on Toudou…
Damn is the chorus catchy
SeeYa are back as…?
That big bow and hair and wigs and clothes and….O_O
Balladeers go disco. SeeYa come back in to the limelight with a new single titled “Hot Girls”, with an unexpected twist of image. Their clothes remind me of Roller Discos, all that is missing is retro roller skates and SeeYa are good to go….straight in to the 70s. What a waste of talent really, I do not dig the outfits, the hair, the clothes and choreography, the song isn’t so bad though. Whatever happened though to the news of Nam GyuRi leaving SeeYa? To be honest, I actually was egging on the news, since I find the two other members are criminally underrated and I truly don’t get all the interest Nam GyuRi is getting. Anyhow, good luck to them and their promotions, it’s sure to do well since SeeYa are so popular.
Epik Highs new album
Epik High – 1분 1초 (feat. 타루) English subbed by TheAsianMission
Epik High and their music differs from Season to Season/album to album yet still remains the same, and that is what’s so special about them. I have Epik Highs new mini-album and it’s up to par as expected with the talented Trio. 1분 1초 (1 minute 1 second) is definitely worth a listen and a watch for the MV, the rewinding and artistic interpretation of the songs meaning is vintage Epik High and continues to impress you as time goes on. It almost seems like these guys make things so effortlessly. I can’t wait to see them perform, their stage presence is always so captivating.
On a final note, The 7-Day Relay has been cancelled for more up-to-date and regular posts.
