Jang Nara Change Change Change

SBS Variety, “Change” always invites stars every week for a complete transformation and becoming someone else, leading a totally different life from their normal lifestyle. Last Sunday, they managed to invite popular Asian star, Jang Nara to their program and her task was to transform herself into a “dinosaur” girl that no one would want to take a second look at. Jang Nara went for a complete transformation from top to bottom that took several hours and it was a big success in that the hosts could not recognise her initially.

In this week transformation, the make-up artistes added layers of make-up to make her face look chubbier. She even permed her hair to make her look like a middle-aged auntie plus putting on black-rimmed glasses for added effect.

Jang Nara who has never gone match-making before in 28 years of her life, went match-making this time with the name of “Lee Jin Sun” with a guy. Her new image totally scared off the guy who was supposed to meet her and didn’t know what was going on in the first place. Although Jang Nara was happy that her disguise was a success, she no doubt felt crushed to be rejected. This segment was super hilarious and got good reviews from viewers.

Jang Nara second mission for that day was using the same identity, acting as a reporter and going back to her high school. There was this Teacher Jung who doted on Jang Nara when she was schooling and her task was to interview her. As Jang Nara walked nervously towards her teacher, she suddenly exclaimed in Jang Nara’s direction, “You looked very alike to my student, Jang Nara.”

Everyone started getting flustered thinking that Jang Nara identity was busted and Jang Nara tried to cover it up by asking her teacher questions continously. Teacher Jung obliged by talking about the past with Jang Nara, even remembering her student number till this day. Even though Jang Nara has graduated and is now a star, her teacher still prays for her well-being everyday. This touched Jang Nara and everyone listening during that day. This was one of the most touching episodes of “Change” thus far.

At the end of the day, Jang Nara tore off her disguise on stage which led to a huge round of applause from watching students and the scene where she and Teacher Jung hugged each other was extremely moving.

The viewers were generally very happy with the content from this episode and messages from netizens on the official website acknowledged Jang Nara’s effort. They remarked that despite being in the industry for several years now, she still maintains a pure heart which is pretty hard to come by.

Han Ji Hye consoles Lee Dong Gun on her minihompy

Actress Han Ji Hye minihompy has always been one of the most popular ones around. Her break-up with Lee Dong Gun early this year in January after a four year relationship was lamented a pity by many fans.

Lee Dong Gun’s brother lost his life late last month in Sydney after a fatal stabbing incident involving possibly Asian crime gangs. According to sources, when Lee Dong Gun and Han Ji Hye was dating, the latter became very close to his brother and treated him like her own family. And because of this close relationship, Han Ji Hye broke down when she heard about his death.

Han Ji Hye wrote a “Keep fighting!” message recently. It’s speculated that it’s written for Lee Dong Gun who lost his brother and is now a hot topic in Korea.

Han Ji Hye had been to the mourning hall at the hospital on 28th March, just few hours after Lee Dong Gun bought his brother’s urn back from Australia. Eye-witnesses said once she reached the hospital, her tears just kept streaming down her face non-stop, paining everyone who was around her.

Unpredictable Relationships in On Air: Who will end up with who?

SBS drama, “On Air” which revolves around the life of celebrities, managers, producers and writers continues its interesting development. Episode 7 talked about how Oh Seung Ah ex-manager ”cripples” her career and the dark side of artistes management. But the ending sees Seung Ah solving the problem by willing to take a step back and become the second lead instead by acting the 7 year old mentally challenged kid instead of the leading doctor role.

In the following episode 8, we see them going to Taiwan to choose location for filming while Seung Ah goes there as a travel ambassador of some sort. It was interesting to see them in Taiwan and visiting Jiufen which is a famous tourist spot and I have been there a couple of times myself. Seeing them there makes me want to go back there again. Kim Ha Neul also had to speak Chinese because of Oh Seung Ah ambassador role and her Chinese pronounciation was pretty fluent. This episode was very fun and enjoyable to watch.

The relationship development really progressed to another level in this episode and just when you thought that yes, they are together, they throw another storyline in to muddle your thoughts altogether, ingenious.

Right from the second episode, celebrity Oh Seung Ah and manager Jang Ki Joon are paired together while work commitments links writer Seo Young Eun and producer Lee Kyung Min together. Because of Ki Joon’s help seven years ago from a bogus fraudster, Seung Ah is very grateful to him and signs with him despite him struggling now. Jang Ki Joon also tells her about his crush on Young Eun many years ago while she was still a newbie writer. But he never ever told her about his feelings. As for Lee Kyung Min, he is attracted to Young Eun initially for her writing talent and then falls for her. While Young Eun likewise for him after having her tantrums neutralized by him constantly.

In the Taiwan episode, all of them goes to Jiufen separately at first. But by coincidence, Seung Ah meets Kyung Min in a shop where the latter suggests they should go together. Seung Ah agrees as they had a wonderful time together savouring the local delicacies, etc. And when Seung Ah was surrounded by fans who recognised her, Kyung Min suddenly puts his cap on her, takes her hand and runs away from the horde of fans. This was a spanner thrown in the works by the writers to mislead us probably. Then later back at the hotel, Kyung Min looks sweetly at the photos he had taken of her at Jiufen.

On the other hand, Ki Joon meets Young Eun at a teahouse as the earlier expressed his feelings for her vaguely. Extended background between them. There’s also the umbrella scene which adds to the ambuigity.

The confusing seemingly one-sided love between the four leads has gotten many viewers perplexed. Immediately after the Taiwan episode was broadcast, many netizens started posting on the official website hoping to see the four-way relationships being defined more clearly and also started giving their two cents about who should end up with who. Who would you choose?

Viewers are definitely enjoying “On Air” as it surpassed the 20% mark in ratings for both episodes last week, coming in top despite Hong Gil Dong last episode.

Shinji of Koyote has stage fright?

Fans are worried for Shinji after her recent “shaking” performance.

(Shinji appears at 1:32 into the clip)

Shinji uncharacteristic stage fright showing happened during the 29th March episode of MBC Music Core and got netizens really worried after seeing it. On this episode, Shinji was performing a duet with Sung Je, “Love is Possible”.

Many netizens pointed out that Shinji seems to be very nervous and was shaking throughout her performance. From the video, you can clearly feel that Shinji’s mic was shaking while her facial expressions made people felt uneasy.

With Kim Jong Min in the army right now, Koyote is currently facing a temporarily suspension of actitivies. The company is awaiting on Shinji’s decision because they gave her two options, either release a Koyote album or a solo album. But Shinji hasn’t gave them a reply yet because of her stage fright ailment.

Shinji has never been comfortable performing by herself unless it’s a group or other format of performance. And if she decides to strike it out solo, rapper Baekga will be left in an awkward position. She also needs time to adapt to new partners. And even if she decides on a Koyote album, without Kim Jong Min vocals, it will feel like a Shinji solo album. And if there’s a need, they might need to draft a new member in which might be a problem when Jong Min returns.

Many netizens posted messages debating over her performance, “Is it because Kim Jong Min and Baekga absence?”, “It feels like she has stage fright?”, “Is she ill?”, “She looks really nervous, her shaking really pains us.”

And there were encouraging messages for her as well, “For your next performance, let us see the best of you”, “Fighting! Shinji fighting!”, etc.

Trifecta Entertainment explained, “As a member of Koyote for the past 10 years, Shinji can’t possibly have stage fright. The reason for her unusual performance was because it was her first time collaborating with someone outside of Koyote in 10 years and the tune was a ballad not the dance songs that she was familiar with. These reasons when combined have placed tremendous stress on her which resulted in her unusual showing. Hope that everyone can treat that as part of growing up pains and Shinji herself has said she will work doubly hard and give us a better stage next time.”

Jeon Ji Hyun sailor moon school uniform interests many

Korean actress, Jeon Ji Hyun debut Hollywood movie, “Blood: The Last Vampire” has revealed new screens of Jeon Ji Hyun dressing herself up as a student and going undercover in a school on several foreign movie websites recently.

The production has from time to time released pictures of Jeon Ji Hyun doing fighting and wire work scenes. But the new screens of her in sailor moon uniform is a first and kind of special. In a classroom of foreign students, Jeon Ji Hyun is the only Asian student wearing a sailor moon uniform and got her fans excited over her role of Saya, the vampire hunter.

Saya is part of a covert government agency that hunts and destroys demons in post-WWII Japan and is inserted into a military school to discover which her classmates is a demon in disguise. Gianna Jun debut Hollywood movie, “Blood: The Last Vampire” will hit screens this summer in America.

With fame, Yoon Eun Hye finds that pain is part of the package…

People often say that problems is part and parcel of the popularity package.

Thanks to the success of “Coffee Prince 1st Shop”, Yoon Eun Hye popularity has not just risen in Korea alone but overseas as well. But more often than not, pain comes along with success which is part of the package.

Despite not having any dramas nor movies at the moment, her numerous product endorsements are already keeping her busy, leaving her with little time to recharge herself. Since her drama filming ended, she appears to be on vacation, but in reality, she is busy fulfiling her product endorsement duties. Basically, she has to work non-stop for around 20 days in a given month. Just this month alone, she has to film CFs for clothing chain, Basic House and Joinus. In early April, she has another v=b CF filming to handle too.

Right now, her product endorsements include Zipel fridges, coffee drink Latte Ditto, artificial eyedrops I20, clothing brands Basic House & Joinus, etc.

Companies who already have other stars on their books to endorse soju, tyres, sweets, fast food restaurants have also extended invitations to her, but because it didn’t fit with her image or schedule, she had to reject them.

And because “Coffee Shop 1st Prince” is highly popular in countries like Japan, China, etc, they have invited her over to promote the drama. But because of her already packed schedule, it’s impossible for her to allocate time for her to visit their countries. The Japanese media apparently got tired of waiting and suggested heading over to Korea in a group to interview her. She is now adjusting her schedule and is set to meet them in early April.

Since becoming an actress, she has become a highly sought after star in the industry. Rumours abound that you had to fork out 5 million KRW per episode for Eun Hye in a drama series. But this is basically not true.

From a relatively newbie actress into a big star now, Yoon Eun Hye is going through a tiring growing up phase. But she’s handling it well thus far!

Andy likes pure and innocent girls like YoonA

“I like pure and innocent girls, someone like YoonA.”

Andy from Shinhwa was on MBC “Golden Fishery: Radio Star” on 26th March with Lee Min Woo and confessed about their ideal girl type.

Andy was asked by the MC, “Your ideal celebrity type is?” His initial answer was Kim Tae Hee. But the MC added, “Besides this general answer?” He then answered, “I like So Nyeo Shi Dae members, all of them.” ’

Shin Jung Hwan pressed on further and Andy shly replied, “I like YoonA. I like pure and innocent girls.” Lee Min Woo also said that his preferred celebrity lover would be Kim Tae Hee too. He described her, “She is like my air.”

Andy was asked which movie was uninteresting, Eric’s Diary of June, Minwoo’s Holy Daddy or Dong Wan’s Spin Kick. He said, “Sorry, Dong Wan hyung.”

Kim Sun Ah was supposed to be part of G.O.D!

Danny Ahn from G.O.D (Groove Over Dose) revealed recently that G.O.D was supposed to be a mixed group of 6 with five guys and one girl.

In KBS2TV “Happy Together” program shown on 27th March, Danny Ahn had revealed, “When G.O.D was formed, it was supposed to be five guys plus one girl to form a six member mixed group. The group name was to be G.O.D Six.”

But then Park Jin Young came in the picture as their producer and said that G.O.D is not going to be a mixed group, recommending Kim Tae Woo to be part of the group instead and dropping the female member totally. Danny Ahn still feels sorry for the supposed-to-be female member of G.O.D.

After that broadcast, the netizens started getting interested in who that female member was and starting leaving messages on the program’s official website.

It was later revealed that the female member was actress Kim Sun Ah who shot to fame thanks to her role in, “My Name is Kim Sam Soon”. Lucky break!!!

“We Got Married” reveals celebrities out of bed looks

The four make-believe newly wed couples on MBC Sunday Sunday Night, “We Got Married”will be showing them getting up from bed and exercising together.

In tonight’s episode, Jung Hyung Don-Saori, Alex-Shin Ae, Solbi-Andy, Crown J-Seo In Young couples will reveal their fresh faces after getting up from bed. The four couple will also get a “exercise together for a healthy lifestyle” mission. The couples will have lots of interesting ideas to choose from. Andy-Solbi couple chose Pocketball and things got interesting after they decided to wager on the person who loses will have to give the other person a light peck.

Alex who charmed Shin Ae previously with his culinary skills and song bought her to a gym this time. Alex volunteered to become Shin Ae’s fitness trainer and his strict training regime even shocked the production team filming them.

Crown J and Seo In Young continued in their battle to assume supremacy over each other. They were suppose to go exercising but with both of them hating that, they started squabbling with each other, amply showing that they are the ticking time bomb couple in the program.

“We Got Married” is the first-ever program in Korea that unites two celebrities together to become a couple. Since it’s first episode on 9th March, it has gotten good reviews. After just two episodes, the growing popularity among viewers could be the catalyst for “Sunday Sunday Night” to see a surge in their ratings.

Have heard good reviews about this and frankly miss the romance factor in Korean variety. Although this is partly scripted, it still is helluva interesting especially after I watched the chinese subbed episode 2.

Lee Dong Gun brings his brother’s urn back to Korea

Lee Dong Gun returned to Korea via Incheon Airport at around 6pm yesterday evening with his brother’s urn. He wore the customary black suit with a pained expression on his face as he exchanged a few words with grieved relatives at the arrival gate before swiftly departing the airport.

Lee Dong Gun who had been very close to his brother immediately flew to Australia with his parents the next day to claim his body after learning of the tragic news. His brother’s body was cremated in Sydney on 26th March.

Upon returning, Lee Dong Gun immediately headed for the Samsung Medical Center at Ilwon-Dong where his brother’s urn will be placed temporarily at the mourning hall. The funeral will run for four days while a memorial service will be conducted in a Catholic church through a mass format on 31st March.

Actress and former girlfriend of Lee Dong Gun, Han Ji Hye came to the mourning hall and used her tears to console him over the tragic loss of his brother. She arrived at around 11.30pm last night, just a few hours after Lee Dong Gun had returned with his brother’s urn from Australia.

According to someone from Han Ji Hye’s company, “After completing the filming for “I Hate You But It’s Fine” drama, she rushed over to the hospital immediately.” It’s understood that when she arrived, she started tearing because she had lost someone who was like a brother to her as well.

Han Ji Hye and Lee Dong Gun was a couple until the end of last year when they broke up which left many fans disappointed.

Minwoo reveals Shinhwa gossip and says sorry to ex-girlfriends (not!)

Shinhwa members, Lee Minwoo and Andy was on MBC variety, “Golden Fishery: Radio Star” yesterday as they revealed the actual reason behind Shinhwa leaving SM Entertainment when their contract expired, why Shinhwa members got into fights and Minwoo apologising to his ex-girlfriends.

Shinhwa has already been together for 10 years and everyone is very curious as to whether they have fought with each before. The host asked if any of them fought over the past 10 years and Minwoo replied, “I did scold JunJin before but the only time I fought was with Shin Hye Sung. We even saw blood at the end. The host continued to ask for the reason to which Minwoo smilingly said, “Hye Sung once he drinks one drop too many, he likes to cling onto people and start talking non-stop. So there was once when we were drinking and he was at it again. At that time, I needed to go to the toilet but he kept holding me back. I just hit him because I really needed to go and then he retaliated and hit me back. We traded blows one after another and it became a big fight.

Minwoo also revealed that they often get into fights because of silly things. And one of the most ridiculous one was because of a fart. He revealed, “Sometimes, I will give out a fart but I will lay the blame on someone else. But some of them hate this kind of joke and so we will end up quarrelling in the end.”

They also revealed why they ended their contract with SM Entertainment. Minwoo said, “When Shinhwa contract with SM was up, they only wanted to re-sign some members only not all of us. We felt that we couldn’t give up Shinhwa and thus decided to leave SM Entertainment as a group instead.

Minwoo also said sorry to the female artistes whom he said he liked on a variety show last year. When the host asked if such a thing happened, Minwoo said, “I was very naive then and accidentally blurted out their names.” “I never thought that there was a need to protect their privacy.” “Although it wasn’t my intention, I am sorry for causing them a great deal of stress and problems.”

Lee Minwoo had expressed on a variety show last year that Suh Ji Young and Shin Ae were two girls that he really liked in the past. After that happened, Minwoo said, “After that happened, I contacted them saying I didn’t mean to do that. We are now still good friends and they have their own boyfriends now.”

Charlene Choi on the verge of nervous breakdown?

Gossip magazines are famed for writing exaggerated stories based on pictures. But I decided to post this since I think there’s some truth in that Charlene Choi is really tired and stressed out lately having to do so much by herself.

Charlene Choi is reportedly on the verge of breaking down due to the stress and tiredness of doing everything by herself in the absence of Gillian Chung who is still on vacation. Two magazines have reportedly claimed different stories to suggest that Charlene is not in the best of conditions right now.

“3 Weekly” claims that Gillian had gone on a lovey dovey vacation with Juno Mak, leaving Charlene to fend for herself and taking in all the pressure from the fallout of the scandal. This has led to Charlene feeling stressed out and her weight has dropped to only 88 pounds with her health blinking red.

Ah Sa (Charlene) who has always greeted us with a smiling face is actually frowning behind her smile. Just see what she has to do in Gillian’s absence.

Another magazine, “East Weekly” reportedly got a shot of Charlene crying on the shoulders of someone and her eyes were so sore after that that she had to buy eyedrops to lessen the pain. It continued by saying that Charlene often cries to herself after reaching home and is having sleepless nights. Days earlier, after doing a body check-up in Central area, she especially headed over to the pharmacy to get eyedrops for her sore eyes.

Korean words emblazoned on Rain’s race suit in Speed Racer arouses interest

A full-length body picture of global popstar, Rain who plays Taejo Togokhan in his Hollywood debut movie, “Speed Racer” was revealed recently and the Korean words emblazoned on his track suit aroused interest.

“Speed Racer” is adapated from 1960s Japanese anime Mach GoGoGo which was authored by Tatsuo Yoshida. The movie is written and directed by the Wachowski brothers of Matrix trilogy fame.

Rain plays a East Asian rookie driver and his character invited criticism in the production stage because his Taejo Togokhan character was originally Japanese but yet he was representing Korea.

So with that in mind, Rain started brainstorming in order to make his Taeko character look Koreanised and one of his ideas was to emblazon Korean wordings on his track suit and helmet.

According to Rain’s management, “Rain is one of Korea’s top stars and with this being a Hollywood movie, we have been trying our best to change the original Japanese driver image into a Korean one. He (Rain) suggested to the production company to emblazon Korean words on his track suit and helmet and they thought it was a feasible idea and it was later adopted.

They also added that the Korean words emblazoned on the left arm of his track suit and helmet wrote, “Togokhan” which also meant that the Japanese identity was being marginalised.

Rain’s movie, “Speed Racer” will be shown all over the world on 8th May. He is now currently undergoing training in Berlin, Germany for his leading role in Hollywood movie, “Ninja Assassin”.

Storm Riders 2 character artwork leaked

Series of character artwork for characters in the new “Storm Riders 2″ movie was released recently on the internet. Besides the earlier two released of Cloud (Aaron Kwok) and Wind (Ekin Cheng), other supporting and generic characters artwork was also leaked apparently together with them.

“Storm Riders 2″ will make use use of CG extensively and post-production is expected to last for about a year. Costume design will be taken charge of by Oscar nominee and famous Hong Kong art producer, Hai Chung Man. He will re-design their outfits according to the new storyline. And from the new artwork, we can see that there’s a vast difference between the first movie and now.

The most obvious difference is Aaron Kwok’s Cloud character. He no longer has wavy blue hair and also doesn’t flex his Fire Beast arm anymore. He is now outfitted with armour instead but still looks far more awesome than the previous. Ekin Cheng’s Wind character still look as good if not better. Charlene Choi Second Dream character looks pretty good too in her outfit.

New China actress Tang Yan role as Chu Chu is the only exception here as she has two artworks, one showing her in a mysterious hood and the other uncovered. Nicholas Tse Juet Sum character is decked out in golden armour.

The following are artworks of generic characters in the movie. All of them looked very detailed and is a good fit for the original comic characters artwork.
