Since it has been a while we did updates on our regular artists on here …
we are going to slowly play a catch up .. this time is YEH’s turn and we are going to pick up her story from what we left off on this blog~!

Last time we talked about YEH was during her “Coffee Prince” drama that how things between her and her label company had gone out of hands.

So after all that tears and hair pulling reports, Yoon Eunhye have peacefully settled the disputes with her previous agency 8Peaks at the end of October. I have no idea how it ended up peacefully with all those court appearances and law suits either! She is now signed on with KRAZE Entertainment, (Kraze pron – “keu ra zae”) and apparently been given her own room which we are told it’s untold of in Korean entertainment business.

Latest Self-cam pictures from her Cyworld!

Thanks to the “coffee prince’s” popularity which helped her gain much more attention YEH’s name reached the “A” list stars and ever since then she started Endorsement of different products left and right .. from a three month contract KT’s Internet TV brand to Levi’s Lady Jeans and Samil Phamaceutical’s Eye2O, and others.

According to Eunhye’s reps, “Apart from telecommunications and pharmaceuticals, Eunhye will also be endorsing clothing, confectionery, cars, company PR to name a few. We are not choosing the contracts as per acquisition, but more so choosing in terms of how Eunhye can utilize her star power to benefit both the company and Eunhye as an actress. For this reason, we’ve also had to make the unfortunate decision of not extending and pulling out of certain contracts.”

Now could you give those left out ones that you couldn’t utilize the star power to benefit the both sides to us to endorsee please? *just an idea* we sure will make it work for a good cause~ Fund the site and learn Korean! LOL! you know! we can get categorized under Celeb’s definition in Korean media if it’s by the count of haters and fans *cough cough*

YEH then headed to Australia from November 10th to the 13th for some CF shooting and appeared in many magazines ‘Vogue’, ‘Vogue Girl’ and ‘In Style’ to name a few!

But thank God her popularity in couple cases is being used to benefit others ^^
Some of the YEH effects!

Ballad singer Toy’s 6th album title song, “In Sa” has become popular with the help of YEH’s Cy. Through the immense popularity of YEH and her Cy, this popularity had rubbed off onto Toy’s song, which had even reached the top 5 most searched on Korea’s portal sites. Yoon Eun Hye Effect – promoting others

Yoon Eun Hye – Green Tea CF

For those of you who are new to kpop and her here is a nice summary of her career Entertainment Station did around August.

The hottest news out there is how YEH along side other artists participated in a Photoshoot in awareness and support of domestic adoptions for the 5th year of “Letter from the angels” campaign. I remember last year Rain participated too .. and he was peed on HAHAHHAHA.. actually this year too was reported some of the artist been urinated by the kids! FUN STUFF!

The work formation is in black-and-white photography of total 20 pieces and is exhibited from December 19th until 25th for 7 days in Seoul personage art center 2nd floor. If you ended up going just know that this exhibition spends the donations for the treatment expense of the children who are in their facilities and for operation charges on domestic adoption activation. I am not gonna support this cuz ever since middle school I wanted to adopt a full blooded Korean boy ^^; since i know I can’t ever have one myself T___T

Here is the Official website if you need to find the location (http://lovefund.or.kr)

But the most fun part of any event sure is the behind the scene and rumors ^^
So this lady from staff wrote openly to public on how YEH spent 2 hours just to play with the orphan kids. While male artists didn’t even bother to express their feelings nor even played with the kids! According to the lady there were total of two newborns and five to six disabled children for photography.

“In the process of the photo-shoot, something valuable I discovered is that, most of the participants joined for the love of the children. Like Yoon Eun Hye, who only spent 30 minutes taking the photos, but remained in the studio for 2 hours after to play with the kids and feeding them milk. When Yoon Eun Hye was with the kids, my studio felt like there were two mischievous kids, vibrant, boisterous and full of life and exuberance. In these situations, perhaps the strong maternal instincts in the female artistes are sparked by the light of the orphans, explaining their behaviour. However, for the most parts, male artists seldom express their feelings and love, or play together with the children.”

I know lately we haven’t been bringing the news that much to you guys. Well that’s because we have lives too (like me, working two jobs and going to school). But here is some K-Entertainment that’s out.

In Korea, a big number of women turned out to see Ang Lee’s “Lust, Caution” it drew in 385,000 viewers nationwide in seven days since its release on November, 8th. I guess we know what women in their 30s living in Korea wants.
——————————————————————————————-

Song Hye-Gyo is getting some help from Hollywood in her U.S debut by having her in one of their upcoming movies “Fetish”, where Hye-Gyo will play a woman with psychic abilities in this thriller. But first you can see her in an Nintendo DS CF.

Song Hye Kyo, Nintendo CF

The only thing I have to say..…..is anyone really waiting for her U.S debut, especially after her horrible acting in the movie “Hwang Jin Yi”?
——————————————————————————————-

I know I did a post on Yoon Eun-Hye about her showing her goodies. Well this time I will give her some praise for her newly found talent as a model. Eun-hye will be seen in the Vogue magazine in their December 2007 issue and in Vogue Girl the Korean verson.

In the December issue of Vogue, she will take on the appearance as a…..swan? Yes! That is right! Using her acting abilities and new found model ability, she actually pulls it off gracefully.

And in Vogue Girl she is showing more of her sweet and seductive side.

——————————————————————————————-

Speaking of Yoon Eun-Hye….she along with Rain were selected as China’s favorite Hallyu stars. Each receiving the highest votes taken from a Chinese website survey by the International Reelection Hallyu Channel. Eun-Hye received 2,811,769 votes in the female catogary and Rain received 2,193,388 votes in the male catogary.

But not everyone is loving Rain right now. Peta issued a complaint to the Kpop star for wearing fur. They released a statement asking Rain to stop wearing fur saying “You have said that you want to show American women ‘how sweet and loving Asian men are’. Correct us if we’re wrong, but wearing fur is anything but ’sweet’ and there is no ‘loving’ way to rip the skin off a still-twitching animal,”…

I have to say this…..has PETA run out of U.S stars to harasses now they have to pick on Rain. I mean he hasn’t even made his debut yet and they are already tarring his throat.
——————————————————————————————-
Ivy should be receiving a sigh of relief after hearing that her ex-boyfriend whom was blackmailing her, was arrested and charged for blackmailing, sending threatening messages, and other charges. Even though Ivy has cancelled all of her Korean activates, she was recently seen on stage in Vancouver, Canada participating in a concert that was scheduled before the scandal broke out. She joined DJ Doc and Tei and others at the Queen Elizabeth Theatre, where she received an overwhelming appreciation from the audience that it brought her to tears.

That’s good that she is receiving good will through this ruff patch, but……cough cough… WHERE IS THE SEX TAPE? Trust me I am not the only one thinking that.
——————————————————————————————-

JYP has already started his comeback, but I am just wondering why. The dude cannot sing for the life of him…. I hate to say this, but I would rather hear Heechul sing before I listen to him. JYP may have the magic touch in finding talent, but the magic stops with him.

JYP – The House that You Live In & Kiss

Do people really like this?
and what the hell is up with his fashion sense…..

Is he taking fashion tips from Ugly Spice….hummm…..i mean Posh Spice?

——————————————————————————————-

JYP’s little protégés the Wonder girls have a new basket Robbin CF.

Wonder Girls- Baskin Robins CF [ 35 version ]

They really are going to wear this dance out. Hahahahahah
——————————————————————————————-

Lee Hyori will be featured in the December issue of Cosmo(Cosmopolitan) magazine in the spread labeled “Girl’s Party Best Friend” (what ever that’s suppose to mean)…..


and she also has an Soju CF out……

Lee Hyori’s management is saying that she will be taking a year off to attend college. Oh, now i get it….she is featured in the Cosmo spread named “Girl’s Party Best Friend” and she has an Soju cf out, and she’s going to college…..that means only one thing….PARTY, PARTY, PARTY!!!! It’s good to see that she will have her priorities straight. Hahahahahahah

Girls Generation is the new “GirlScout” Ambassadors-from Bellisima @ JPHIP.com

Korean GirlScout League (?), “It’s been 62 years since the founding (of GirlScout) and we are ready to welcome a new society with a new image, different images from eating healthy meals to having the best talent, and so the popular Girls’ Generation was chosen as the ambassador,” on the 28th.

As ambassadors, the GirlScout Federation says they will contribute to campaigns, participate in international events such as camping, be distributed to schools nationwide as GirlScout ambassadors, be promo models for the bimonthly “GirlScout” magazine, and a variety of activites, include photo shootings.

Girls’ Generation, “We are really happy to be represented as GirlScout ambassadors. We want girls’ images to be bright and healthy, so we will work hard.”

The ambassador appointment will take place on February 13, 2008 in Seoul GirlScout Association Hall (?) and they will proceed with plans in the General Assembly in 2008.
————————
Cjlatina—isn’t the GirlScout’s moto suppose to be about being yourself. Where does plastic surgery fall into there….couldn’t they get a group that was more about being unique, instead of the cookie cut-out girls they picked.

——————————————————————————————-

The elves will be seeing less of their Suju gods….well on MBC programs that is. MBC has stated that they will not allow any SM artist to participate in any programs until they receive a offical apology from Mr. SM because of what they feel are unfair pratices. The whole episode is over the fact that Kangin and other members are on MBC and a competing station(SBS) at the same time. Guessing from their argurment MBC programs that have Suju memebers on it are not doing too good compared to SBS’s programs that also features Suju members.

Edit—SM has apologize to MBC. His artists will be able to perform on MBC, but Kangin will not be going back to his MBC MC job. YEAH! For the elves…..boo for the rest of us. lol
~Thanks Jennifer for the update~
——————————————————————————————-

Also in news Kangin was rushed to the hospital during the show “Explore the Human Body” .. he started to vomit so bad, they had to take him to the hospital …. there they found out he is having swollen intestine … so he is kept there for further examinations. This is just more proof that SM is working these guys to the bone that every other day someone is going into the hospital.

Sad that this is happening to him….first is his hand and now his intestines. Ouch!

So I came across this site with images of Yoon Eun-Hye’s sexy new image, and I almost fell out of my sit. I mean the girl is looking good, but then on the other hand it seems like it’s getting way too much. I noticed lately after her hit drama “Coffee Prince” had ended she has been on many different magazine covers looking way to sexy. Yes I know, I know many of you will say “Hey get off her back she is a woman now, so lay off her”. But now it’s like show more and be more sexed up to make the magazine sell. I’m like this leave some to the imagination please not everybody wants to see your goodies.

Another idea just crossed my mind. What if we put these loony anti-fans in a room, together with die-hard fanatics?? That must be interesting!! Maybe..hmm…the newest case, Han Kyung’s anti fan who gave him a pocket filled with her blood, we put her together with a SuJu die-hard who sent hatred message to the poor suicide girl few months ago. We can have a hidden camera installed in the room, and sell the video to the National Geographic channel as “Two New Found Low Class Species Fighting For A Retard Glory”

The news about DBSK 2006 super-glue incident (no worries, English subbed!)

And maybe doing what antis do to the artists is another good idea.
Once Yoon Eun Hye was shot in the eye by an anti who tried to make her blind, with a mix of soy sauce and vinegar. We could trace that anti, and shoot him right in the eye, with a liquid mix of peroxide and albothyl. Bullseye! or for precisely, Blindeye!
But of course it would be such a disgrace to lower ourselves to these lifeless people’s level. Maybe we should just yawn and continue our meaningful life. And perhaps elbow an anti a bit if we happen to find one (remember to cover your elbow with a sharp metal skewer)(hahah.joking).

And who’s the meanie who enjoys funny and stupid things in hurtful incidents? yeah, it’s your lovely author here. And this is the case. In the year 2000, an anti sent a drink contains detergent to a house of a boyband member’s, disguised as a gift. The artist didn’t drink the gift, instead one of his family member did. and what happened next?make a smart guess, my smart readers. Right. The family member had a severe stomachache, due to not be able to recognize DETERGENT in the drink.

Jung Ryu-won, formerly from girl band, Chakra is another singer who made it big after turning into acting. She came to our notice as the ex-girl friend who refused to let go of Hyun Bin´s Jin Hyeon in My Name is Kim Sam Soon, much to our chagrin. Thereafter, Jung Ryu-won appeared in Korean dramas: Which Star are you from with Kim Rae Won as the long lost country pumpkin sister who is a death ringer of KRW´s character´s death wife, and April Shower with Oh Ji Ho, the drama panned by critics and was lowly rated to some extent, I believe the audience did not like their characters´ irresponsibility. Oh Ji Ho´s character eloped with Ryu-won character thereby abandoning his wife who is in coma and who was her best friend´s husband whom she was in loved even before the wife went into coma! And after the wife regained consciousness, Oh Ji Ho´s character could not decide whom he would love enough to make a decision among them!

Among the other singers who became more successful as an actress are Eugene, formerly from SES; Yoon Eun Hye, formerly BabyVox who burst into fame via Korean drama, Goong-Princess Hour; and Ha Ji won who gained fame initially in the horror genre. It was reported that Eugene is a better actress than she ever was as singer!

Have you ever envied at YEH’s body?
No more, my friends!
AND THESE AIN’T PHOTOSHOPED!

Wonder if Kim Jong Kook has seen these yet O_o
But i guess the most effective way to obtain such body is to make a contract with 8-peaks … it’s guaranteed you’ll stay fit if you don’t go under weight or find yourself diagnosed with all sort of unheard diseases ~

No doubt that Yoon Eun Hye’s MBC Drama “Coffee Prince” is currently the hottest topic. But news are having it the actress physical state is in question. YEH is complaing of constant sever headaches between the shots of the drama … doctors believe her headaches are due to the stress and exhaustion and her overall condition is very poor. Despite all that she is trying so hard to not show these signs of pains on the set on the drama … but her health deteriorates is fairly obvious to the crew that left the shooting of the additional episodes unconfirmed!

Additionally, fans have observed on the episodes bruises on the body of YEH .. some are speculating these signs might suggest YEH suffers from pernicious anemia, a condition where red blood cells are not providing adequate oxygen to body tissues. They also mentioned that she has thyroid problems.

And just like anyone else we are also thinking this whole thing has to do with her legal battles with her company 8 Peaks! Recently she has firmly stated if 8 Peaks doesn’t cancel her contract she won’t hesitate to sue them. She in fact has filed the 2nd request for termination of her contract with her management company on August 8th. The first request apparently was done in January 2007 after 8 Peaks one-sided decition that cancelled her participation on the MBC drama “Que Sera Sera” without even her consent! Later they called YEH responsible for the matter and this whole things destroyed her image in public. All this makes us think half of the cries we see on the drama must have been real!

Whether Coffee Prince will have additional episodes or not .. the next drama in line for it’s time slut is apperantly MBC drama “Kimcheed Radish Cubes”

Starring Park Hye Shin .. a 17 year old actress that you all might be familiar with her if nothing else but from “Goong S” Check out her new short hair … in the drama press confrence on August 9th she revealed her new haircut has been done due to her role in the drama, short hair must have been popular these days .. or is it that the crew might believe it will bring luck to the drama! .. anyways, it is said that she has been very enthusiastic about the drama. I donno anyone else from the cast … Chesso Hamnida!

With Coffee Prince doing so good!!!! check out the Episode Ratings!!! They started with 15 something for the 1st episode and now the 6th episode alone on the 2007-07-17 ranked 23, made the drama stand on the 2nd place !!!!!!!!

Our Korean friends seems very pleased with the outcome too and they have made all sort of cute artwork again … one of which is combining Yoon Eun Hye’s baby pictures while at sleep!

We have had several requests on the latest ofKim Jong Kook (김종국) over the last couple days … the requests was so sudden that made me really curious of the reason too …. But since this is the first time we mention him on this site .. i will give some background info to have everyone with us in the same page ^^ So let’s start with his Wikipedia ^^

Kim Jong Kook (김종국) (born on April 25, 1977) is a South Korean singer. He first entered the Korean music industry in 1995 as a member of the group Turbo, which became fairly popular for their catchy music. After the group dissolved a few years later, he became a solo singer in 2001, mostly concentrating on ballads. Although his unusually high tone of his voice is often criticized and joked about (with many stars jokingly calling it a “mosquito voice”), he has had many hit singles and has also been a frequent guest on many variety shows, most notably X-Man. In addition, his body is often considered one of the best in K-Pop, due to all his muscle training.

This guy had the most scandal with Yoon Eun Hye during his Xman show (prior to Yoon Eun Hye’s Goong Drama) …

Their scandal “love story” by press gave people a good reason to scratch their heads and come up with the most bizzarest analysis to reach the conclusion that they in fact are dating in real life ~

In order to fulfill his duty to perform two years of mandatory service, Kim entered the military in 2006. However, he is still involved in the music business, releasing a fourth album in early 2006. Unable to directly promote it while in the military, he has taken to using unorthodox methods in order to do so. In order to comply with Korean law, the music video was shot so that his face would never be seen on screen. Also, in order to raise awareness, Kim’s rumoured girlfriend Yoon Eun Hye was asked to star in the music video. Though there has been no direct promotion, his latest album has sold in excess of 100,000 copies.

HERE IS THE MUSIC VIDEO~
“Saying You Love Me” MV feat. Yoon Eun Hye & Kim Jong Kook

THIS ONE IS A MUST SEE!
Making of the MV feat. Yun Eun Hye & Jong Kook – English sub

There are in fact dedicated threads and website to prove the hidden love story to the public … CHECK THIS OUT! ^^ Yep they give you all you need to know, and even more ~!

Also there is another addition to this scandal .. that is the third person “Chae Yeon” to make it a love triangle! Bellow is Chea Yeon speaking:

Chae Yeon
“I think about the first time I became a singer; I was in the recording studio recording with my idol (Kim Jong Kook). I remember when I was young I knew Turbo’s schedule and went to the Dream Concert…. I don’t know how he could remember me; (but) he doesn’t know how thankful I am that he remembers me. During Turbo time I like Turbo songs and Jong Kook oppa; (now as) the singer Chae Yeon, my heart hasn’t changed at all.”

SEE IT FOR YOURSELF~
Xman #50 Dangyunhaji – Chae Yeon vs Kim Jong Kook (en)

Kim Jong Kook is also known for being a soccer team coach for underage children ^^ He had a hard time leaving them for military service T___T

His latest .. apperently is a message he wrote on July 13,07.on papitus fanclub.

Credit: soompi
Translation: Min
“Hello! This is Kim Jong Kook! I’m sorry that it took quite some time to write back. I don’t know if you enjoyed reading the last 50 questions and 50 answers. Because I’m doing my service, I haven’t had much time to fully reply back to all those questions, I’m sorry about that. However, I have been trying my hardest to write as honest as possible (difficult to translate this sentence, but you get the point?). Next time, I will have more opportunity again [to write], I promise to this, I hope this pacifies your disappointment….. I will be on break very soon (or break is coming very soon) I wonder if you have made any plans/arrangements…The weather is getting hotter, I hope you are taking care of your health, with the rainy season I hope you are all careful. Always stay healthy, I wish you all the happiness. Thank you.”

On June 24 He also played on a soccer match~ so many people were hoping to see him on Park Kyung Rim’s Wedding, but apparently he didn’t show up!

The possibility for Goong 2 with the original cast is pretty much ZERO. Yoon Eun Hye and Kim Jung Hoon dont want to renew their contract with Eight Peaks (their Goong production and management company).

“Yoon Eun Hye stated that after the back and forth situation with the company, Eight Peaks broke a trust agreement. Therefore the possibility of her collaborating with them again is unlikely.” Eight Peaks and Yoon Eun Hye have an exclusive three years contract which was signed during the second half of 2005. Which leaves her with another year in her contract with the company.

The official stated, “The trouble between Eun Hye and Eight Peaks started back in January. Despite completing the script reading for appearance on MBC’s Que Sera, Sera, Eun Hye’s management cancelled Eun Hye’s participation in Que Sera Sera and demanded she appeared in a drama that Eight Peaks was producing themselves, causing Eun Hye to be hospitalized due to mental shock.

“Currently she is in the process of filming Coffee Prince and rebelling against her company’s wants.” Her company didn’t want her to do the Vineyard Man either. Kim Jung Hoon is also leaving Eight Peaks, citing the same reason. The company broke his trust.
