And wilder than ever…

…Literally?

MC Mong is back with his 5th album title “Humanimal” (I keep calling it “Humanism in my head, damn you Rain) to be released on the 23rd of this month.

Its supposed to be his Evoloution as a musician and he even mocks his own self by playing on his “monkey” nickname and parodies the images of the theory of human evolution in his album cover.

Frankly, Im not convinced by his parody, and believe the original by JYP serves as the most true rendition of Darwin’s theory of evolution.

Check out JYPs more believable version of ape (JYP walking) to Dancing Ape machine (Still JYP high kicking).

I do like JYP though… I swears. But he makes it so so hard to take him seriously….

Yet he still has time to buy his own Private Tour Jet. GAH!

You can take the Ape out of the Jungle but never take the ape out of the man…

Stop stealing Mongs thunder in my eyes! ARGHHHHHHHHHHHH!

Watch his (Mong not JYP) comeback on Mnet with his title track “Indian Boy” (lol, an indian monkey?), but I will be waiting for the better sound system on KBS. Mongies stage presence is just awesome and the stage misses him for schizznit.

Or however long we feel a week lasts…

Shenyuepop prides itself in how fast the news drops in our forums, and it seems that you guys here in the blog are a deprived of condensed, up-to-date news. So here is a recap of the last 7 days in K-Entertainment. (For those who didn’t realize that Shenyuepop has a forum, you’ve missed out.)

Kim HyunJoong cast as Hanazawa Rui in Korean ‘Hana Yori Dango’:

Now whoever said reality Tv is only 15 minutes of fame and then history is probably wishing he lived in Korea. Because evidently, that’s not the case in good old Seoul. The celebrities in these ubiquitous reality shows are gaining immense popularity and plenty of offers for great gigs. Now before anyone mentions it, we know it’s not ‘finalized’, but releasing the news on practically all news sites and newspapers tells you that they have cast him but are checking on the public response first. Poor ‘Group Eight’ has been planning this remake of the Jdrama for a while now and wants to make sure that people will tune in, no matter how ‘mediocre’ the acting may be. No one else is officially cast and it will be broadcast early next year on KBS.

SS501 Number 2 in Oricon Daily Chart

Staying on course of the SS501 members it seems that they’re finally seeing the fruits of their labours and scored an impressive Number 2 on the Daily Oricon Charts. Well done boys, though I do wonder how well they speak Japanese.

Lee Hyori wants to catapult herself into a Pop Art icon

Hyori tries to pull off a vintage, pop art feel. Instead, she puts Andy Warhol to shame and ends up looking kitsch.

As well as scoring a great Vidal Sassoon CF where she practically gets all hair products for free and a guarantee for great looking locks all through out the rest of the year, Sister Hyori has had still images of her MV leaked as well as the audio. This is a great shame since of course, it was meant to be officially released in a few more days. Now news has it that Mnet (Lee Hyori’s Management) are super duper unbelievably mad at the leak and swear on their souls that they’re going to catch the guy that did it. Lucky for them that this leakage gives a little extra publicity to her mildly anticipated Summer Comeback. News also has it that Hyori’s a little upset, and with all that tough filming in gorgeous Hawaii, who can blame her?

Check out the leaked teaser:

Here are the leaked still images from the MV.

Stars dropping like flies:

Who hasn’t been to the hospital lately in the K-Entertainment world? It seems like stars left, right and center are finding themselves bitten by that dreadful fatigue bug. For a small country they really know how to get all they want from their stars, wearing them out and forcibly sending them to the hospital inorder to rest. Latest victims to this horrible celeb virus are MC Mong, actress Lee Dahae and Big Bang’s TaeYang.

Military Men

Yes, Military men – past, present and near future- are making their rounds in the celeb news circuit this week, and here’s what they’ve been up to.

Singer Sung SiKyung is doing the usual Pre-military man activity boost, where he’s practically everywhere at once. Saucy nerd SiKyung is not only releasing a new album before he parts with his fans, but he also has a now Sold-out concert to croon his way in to hearts that won’t forget him for two years. He also managed to clear that unbelievable scandal he supposedly had with Jewelry star Seo In-Young. Hands up to who ever heard of it and/or believed it.

Singer Eru who hasn’t left the Entertainment scene for that long, posted pictures of himself while performing his patriotic duty at his probably exhausting desk job. It’s understandable that he would be bored since he just sits at a desk all day. I mean don’t all guys that go to the military do that? Yes, I’m being sarcastic. The star doesn’t understand that it’s not just another day at the office but his military service. So I guess its understandable too that netizens gave him a stern chiding, to the extent that poor Eru had to apologise on his personal homepage. Oh Eru, what do they say about idle thumbs?

Kim Jong Kook, the singer freshly out of the military is keeping his already impatient fans still waiting on his comeback album, as he is putting off the recording for a wedding. Not his, but friend MC Yoo Jaesuk. He promised to sing at his wedding and canceled his already booked flights just to stay faithful to that promise. How sweet.

Return of A Legend

It’s been something some fans have been waiting years for, and it’s completely justified. Seo Taiji is finally making his comeback this summer and this week it was announced that he will have some absolutely killer artists lined up to perform at his Music Festival, also staged as his comeback. The ETPFest scheduled for the 16th of August in Seoul is organised by Seo Taiji’s company and have lined up a large array of National and International artists. Clazziquai were confirmed this week for the gig on the eve of the festival. Marilyn Manson is also coming to Korea to scare the land of the morning calm.

Oh yeah and that dude Ajoo is making his comeback too. He seems to have the ‘Papparazzi’ stalking him.

All the negatively from a charity concert really does bring a person down, don’t you think? With all the raping and stabbing and what not, what good really came out of the concert?

THE PERFORMANCES! That’s what! The performances by the artists shows what the Dream Concert was all about!

Lets start with the Red Carpet

DBSK was sadly not seen at the RC…but check out these other hot stars!

Shinee

You almost forget that they’re a new boyband because there has been so much media towards them! It almost doesn’t feel quite right for them to be performing at the concert since they’re so new, but hell, Lee Soo Man has his ways. (But what’s with their shoes…? I mean, you hear of band conformity, but isn’t that a bit too much..?)

Epik High

SS501

You don’t have to be SNSD’s #1 enemy to like them, #2 is pretty okay, too.

Super Junior

Poor Siwon got hurt, so he was there. Although the rest of them looked pretty sleek in all black. (Yes Suju fans, it is indeed the original 13 – 12 since Siwon wasn’t there, but you catch my drift)

SNSD

In order to keep this post as anti free as possible, I have no comment on them other than: I bet you Bonerifics and Delusionfuls are having quite a hoot staring at them, aren’t ya’?

MC Mong

Me gusta his pose and whatever the hell he’s wearing!

Jewerly

Seriously not digging the bowl cut.

Wonder Girls

I’m not too excited about Ye Eun’s and dress, but the rest of them look pretty good. Sohee is a cute little dumpling and Sun Ye is looking “so hot-hot”! (Yoonbin just looks like she’s been out in the sun for about 8 hours)

Popping Hyunjoon

Mighty Mouth

I could either say nothing at all, or say something really mean. Therefore I chose the latter:
Outfits need to go. Now. And grow some hair boy.

A’ST1

Nothing much to say about them. Music’s pretty good, that’s all.

Perfomances

Opening – SMTown (Suju + SNSD + Shinee)

watch?v=SI5Ceek7WLo

Shinee

One of the better performances of the concert! F-f-f;asssshyy….ganstuuuuh.

watch?v=8IT0IALS4pE

Wonder Girls

watch?v=GlDEuJnlD44

Oh no~ Please leave me alone~ xD Not to crazy about the outfits, but loving the song~
Just wish Sun Ye didn’t wore those pants…she needed to be “seckushyy” like the rest of girls.
(Seckushy, new term, learn it.)

Super Junior

Yesung and his pants. XD

ALL 13!

watch?v=MsEnWCKDHwI

DBSK

Min: MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM~ I loooove you~~~~~

Oh yes. Rip it.

Is Yoochun giving Su an orgy…? xD

Be~au~ti~ful~~

watch?v=0RWhyygvuoM
watch?v=w8tXFFje_ew

I don’t know which was better…the 08 or the 07 performances. Whoa. These boys never fail to amaze me!

To sum everything up in one sentence: Yoosu is love, Jae’s arms are wonderful, Changmin ain’t a boy no ‘mo, and Yunho is sex. (Bite me for my grammar)

SNSD

If I ever wore anything that short, my daddy won’t hesitate to kill me!

watch?v=YB-9hVvmyYw

Meh. Once again, no comment.

SS501

watch?v=muyWCt8r_y0

And the highlight of the show~

*laughs* sorry for the fangirlism! See, if you look at the brighter side of things, you realize that they 2008 Dream Concert wasn’t as bad as it seemed! Sure the fans got riled up and other what-nots, but these concert itself was a success. People are forgetting that this is indeed a charity concert for orphans and it accomplish its objective. THEREFORE, the concert was GREAT!

MC Mong, active as both a radio DJ and singer, is making heartwarming headlines as it was recently discovered he had helped a child from an underprivileged family. Specifically, he opened his wallet and heart to a listener of his radio show who came from a low-income family and couldn’t afford an education. He sent the child $1000, intending to remain anonymous. So how’d the secret get out? The lucky child left a thank-you message on the show’s bulletin board.
