by ektha16 on January 30, 2011 at 9:08 pm

Jang Geun Suk recently revealed that next year will be his 20th year since his debut!

During an interview with MBC’s “Section TV Entertainment Report” Jang Geun Suk surprised actress Kim Ok Bin and the reporter by saying, “2012 will be my 20th year of debut.”

He then placidly stated, “I’m thinking of doing a dinner show.” Upon hearing this, the reporter answered, “I am definitely going to go there and interview you!”

Born in 1987, Jang Geun Suk first debuted when he was 5 years old as an catalog model. In 1997, Jang Geun Suk kicked off his acting career as a child actor in a drama.

The actor showed off some of his photos from back in the day for the TV show, eliciting an awed response from the interviewer.

J.Tune Camp responds to Andrea Bucaram’s alleged plagiarism of MBLAQ’s “Oh Yeah”
by VITALWARNING on January 30, 2011 at 11:42 pm
Following up on the alleged plagiarism done by Ecuadorian singer Andrea Bucaram of MBLAQ’s debut track, “Oh Yeah”, J.Tune Camp recently came out with a strong response indicating they will take heavy legal measures if plagiarism was indeed involved.

“We are currently looking into the details of the fans’ inquiries about Ecuadorian singer Andrea Bucaram’s song being very similar to that of MBLAQ’s “Oh Yeah,” confirmed J.Tune Camp on January 31st.

They continued, “We checked the video that was uploaded onto YouTube, and we have concluded that the melody and even the dance choreography have a close resemblance to “Oh Yeah”. We are currently trying to find out whether she simply did a cover of “Oh Yeah” on broadcast, or if the song is actually circulating as an official track.”

Well there you have it friends and fans, Only the Best of the Best from the last 48 hours.....Hmmmm still thinking about this as a new corner...forgive my "growing pains" for though MMR was born on another site and I reported there for a while, this Official My Music Radar! has only been growing for a little over a month. Still working out some of the Pings and Blips ^.^

Super Junior in one of the best video interviews ever! Best of the Best......

Best of the Best as a weekday theme? Or perhaps a new corner....at any rate enjoy this Super Junior Video Interview by Xin MSN, truly one of the best interviews ever by my Super (Junior) Men ^.^

First up Teukie talks about plans for Suju in 2011, the release of their 5th album and Super Show 4! Squeeeeeee!!!!





In this part, Teukie and Chulie are asked about their recent car accident which had some of us ELF's scared to death due to the very serious accident the group endured back in 2007. Chulie "As long as my fans are fine, I am fine" Princess this is why I love you so much my "Cinderfella" ^.^





Whats really funny in this part and NOT translated (no clue why) is that when asked who has changed the least, several members point at Sungmin and someone (I couldn't catch who) even call him a vampire *chuckles darkly*
And though Teukie initially hands the mic to Heechul after being asked about weird habits....all Chulie can do is look embarrassed and laugh, whats up with that Chulie? I can only imagine......kekekekekkeke
When asked about the "Cooking Cooking" song and why they choose certain veggies to be, "Chulie is a Chili Pepper....a lot like him Spicey and Hot tempered" Ya think? LMAO! perfectly describes THIS Diva ^.~





Oh how much do I love this part? Chulie is asked about Lady HeeHee and states "I'm a genius!" Reported as one of the funniest segments of Super Show 3!





I hope you have enjoyed this interview as much as I have, I laughed so much!
Saranghae my Super men!!! ^.^

INFINITE on promotional preparations, “We Got Married” couples, and future goals

by VITALSIGN on January 31, 2011 at 4:49 am

Share626

Reporters of 10asia met with the seven boys of INFINITE for a fun interview in celebration of their “Before the Dawn” comeback.  Check it out below!
-
Q. “You had a recording for MBC’s ‘Idol Star Athletics’ yesterday.  How’d you do?”
Sung Jong:  “We failed.  Hoya-hyung could’ve done well but he was eliminated in the preliminaries.”
Hoya: “The person next to me fell, which made me to fall too.”
Sung Jong: “But we still wanted to get screen time, so we stayed behind to support everyone.”
Q.“The recording didn’t finish until early morning.  What’s your schedule like after this interview?”
All: “Rehearsal.”
Q. “Were you able to rest a bit before your comeback?”
Hoya: ”No!  We attended events, rehearsed, recorded, and received vocal training.  It wasn’t just an empty period.”
Q. “What did you do for Christmas?”
All: “Rehearsal.”
Q.  “Please introduce your album for us.”
Sung Kyu: “Our album title is ‘Evolution‘ and it literally represents our evolution.  Because of that reason, there’s a higher level of personal contribution and participation in the album itself.  I feel that our vocals have matured and our performance style has gotten a bit more impressive.  Dong Woo and Hoya also participated in the rap making.
‘Can U Smile‘ was originally a song for our debut album, but we re-recorded it to give it a finishing touch, rounding out the album to six songs.  This album is important in that we have! to! succeed! no matter what!”
Q. “Why does your second album need to succeed?”
Sung Kyu: “Our CEO told us sternly that there wouldn’t be a next album for us if this album didn’t succeed.”

Q. “But he can’t be serious (laughter).”
Sung Kyu: “Haha, well of course, but we do have to work hard in order for there to be a next.  If we do well, we can expand into other areas like unit promotions.  There aren’t any detailed plans as of yet, but Woo Hyun could release a ballad solo, and since Hoya and Dong Woo enjoy hip hop, they might promote in that area on their own as well.
Actually, it’s not an issue of the company supporting us, but us just wanting there to be no regrets, since we don’t want to be disappointed with lackluster results.”
Woo Hyun:  “We had high expectations for our first album, but none of them were met, which is why we prepared extra hard for our second album.  We are expecting a bit more this time around and are of the mindset that if it doesn’t work this time, it really won’t work ever!”

Q.  “INFINITE’s music is both trendy, but reflects the feel of ’90s pop.  Even though your current music is great, do you ever want to pursue a different musical style?”
Sung Kyu: ”I like R&B, but my personal tastes and favorite genres can’t always fit with the group’s music.  I think the dance music we’re doing now is fun.”
Q. “Do you have any tips in perfecting the choreography point from ‘Before the Dawn‘ – the scorpion dance?”
Woo Hyun: “You have to do the scorpion pose..”
Hoya: “I first taught Sung Kyu-hyung the scorpion dance and he didn’t think he could do it.”
Sung Kyu: “At the time, our CEO was watching and he immediately said, ‘Looks like we can’t do this dance because of Sung Kyu‘!  Though it really hurt my pride, I had no choice but to agree because our group was really on the verge of not being able to perform it because of me.
Hoya then told me that I could do it, that what I was doing was right, and asked me to try more confidently.  I rehearsed like that and finally got it.  I realized that it’s important to believe in myself and know that I can do something.”
Hoya: “Honestly, anyone can do it once they’re taught it, it’s just all about keeping a straight, calm face once you pull it off.  After we do the scorpion point, we all go into our own freestyles.”
Q.  “What do you think about while doing your freestyles?”
Dong Woo: “Ah, freedom~”
Sung Jong: “This is my world~”
Sung Kyu: “Members like Hoya and Dong Woo, who are both great at dancing, get all excited during the freestyle.. but I just walk far away and eye around a bit before returning back to my position.  I have to go straight into a high note right after the free style, so I try to catch my breath in the back.”
Dong Woo: “Hahaha, we’re all standing on the same stage but are thinking different things.”
Q. “Dong Woo has red hair, and Sung Jong is blonde.  How were your hair colors decided?”
Sung Jong: “Our CEO originally wanted to dye my hair blue after we ended our ‘She’s Back‘ promotions, but he liked my current hair color and just kept it.”

Dong Woo: “I was also originally supposed to go with a wine color, then cherry, then tomato, but just went with a bright red.  My eyebrows were also dyed accordingly in pink, yellow, red, and purple.  Sometimes even my eyeliner would change between blue and green.”
Sung Yeol: ”Together, we’re the start and end of the sunrise and sunset.  I really wanted to dye my hair too and begged, but they wouldn’t let me…”
Q.  “If you could dye it, what color would you choose?”
Sung Yeol: “Something really unique, like green!”

Q. ”We heard that you’re preparing for your Japanese showcase.”
Woo Hyun: “It’s scheduled for April, and I feel that it will be extremely meaningful in that it’ll be our first international showcase. On top of that, none of us except for Hoya have visited Japan.”
L: “I have a fantasy about Japan.”
Q.  “…What kind of fantasy?”
L: “Haha… why are you looking at me like that?  I just meant that I heard they have a good performance and sound system, and that they do camera rehearsals a day in advance.  Hopefully we’ll be able to show a better stage through that.”
Q. “Is there a member who’s participating in the swimming segment of MBC’s ‘Idol Championships’?”
Sung Yeol: “I used to be a part of the YMCA youth swim team, so I decided to go in the 50m freestyle.  But honestly, even 25m is hard for me.  I thought my heart was going to burst by the time I got up to 25m when I was practicing.”

Q. “The biggest variety appearance was when Sung Jong danced on top of a table on MBC’s ‘Quiz That Changes the World.’  What did you think while you were performing?”
Sung Jong:“Ha… this is my world.”
Q. “You weren’t nervous?”
Sung Jong: “Not at all.  I wanted to do more, but I thought people wouldn’t like it, so I held back.”
Sung Kyu: “Our CEO once banned Sung Jong from performing girl group dances because he was afraid people would think negatively of it.  He sternly told him, ‘If you dance that one more time, watch out.‘  But now that he had nothing to do on variety programs, he lifted the ban.  I was shocked at first too whenever he performed them, but now I’m pretty much used to it.”
Q. “Sung Jong has a lot of aegyo and has an endearing tone.  It seems like he’d be above his hyungs.  As the maknae, what do you think of your hyungs?”
Sung Jong: ”Sometimes I respect-”
Sung Yeol: “Wait!  He’s lying!  We’re usually pretty shy so even at the ‘Idol Championships,’ we were mainly hanging out amongst ourselves… but Sung Jong went to go play with other singers.  So we tried to fit in but he was like, ‘Hyungs, what’re you doing?  You were sitting over there by yourselves, weren’t you?‘  Well, it’s not like he was wrong, but…”
Woo Hyun: “He even said, ‘If you have nothing to do, just follow me.’  Haha.”
Sung Jong: “No, I was just curious about what everyone else was doing (laughter).  Anyway, I sometimes respect the hyungs, and I like how they always take care of me.  But sometimes, I’m more mature than they are.  Maybe once in a few months I am.”
Q. “It seems he grew up with a lot of love, seeing as how he’s so confident with himself.”
Sung Kyu: “One time, during our trainee days, I once told him, ‘You’re really pretty, you know.‘  He replied back in a serious tone, ‘Hyung, it’s difficult to find people like me these days.’”
Hoya: “He’s right, I was watching a music program with him one day and he said he was prettier than all the girl groups.”
Sung Kyu: “But it’s only cute because Sung Jong does it.  Imagine if a kid like Hoya said something like that… that’d be so scary.”
Q. “If you were to go on ‘We Got Married,’ do you have anyone in particular you’d like to be partners with?”
Woo Hyun: “Orange Caramel.  Since they have three members, they can be paired with Hoya, me, and Sung Jong.”
Q. “If you were to feature in another variety program, what concept would you like?”
Hoya: “Something like MBC’s ‘Idol Army.’  This is not because I want to work with girl groups, but because I want for us to feature in something weekly and also showcase talents like dancing, singing, and games.  But I’d rather not have the recording take place in our dorms, that’d be a bit difficult.”
Q. “Do you still live in the second floor dorm?”
Sung Yeol: “Yes, our CEO said they’d move us if we got on ‘Music Bank‘’s top 10.”
Q. ”What rank were you last week?”
Sung Yeol: “21st.”
Q. “What do you want in your new apartment?”
Sung Yeol: “About three to four toilets.  We’re desperate.  Having seven members use only one is so uncomfortable.”
Q. “How are rooms divided?”
Dong Woo: “Much to our joy, the manager-hyungs moved downstairs a while ago.  So now it’s me and L, Woo Hyun and Sung Kyu, and Hoya, Sung Yeol, and Sung Jong in one.”
Q. “Last year, the ‘Day of an Idol‘ video that Sung Yeol recorded earned much attention.  Why was it shot and why is Sung Yeol the only character in it?”

Sung Yeol:“We parodied a popular video and wanted to create a headline for ourselves.”
Woo Hyun:“Sung Yeol has the most childish image.  If Sung Kyu-hyung did it, it would’ve turned out to be like a documentary.”
Sung Kyu:“If I had done it with my facial expression, the video would’ve probably hit the news with the headline ‘The severe reality of idol lives‘ or ‘Do idols really live like this?‘  It fit Sung Yeol the best.”
Q.  “Did you ever feel like you had succeeded since your debut?”
Sung Kyu: “Never.”
Woo Hyun:“We’re still under this pressing urge to do better so there’s no opportunity to feel anything like that.”
Hoya: “I went down to my hometown in Changwon last Chuseok and walked around in a busy mall for hours, but only six people recognized me.  They were our fans, though.”
Sung Yeol: “I went to a make-up store and no one recognized me.  I was kind of anticipating someone to, but they were all just doing their own thing…”
L: “Sometimes people ask if we’re celebrities when we’re wearing our stage outfits.  But then we’d tell them our name, and they’d be like, ‘Never heard of that…”
Woo Hyun: “When this album promotion ends, I want to be able to walk around and hear at least, ‘Oh, isn’t that INFINITE?‘ from people around us.”

SMEntertainment to debut new Boy Group this March or April

Kind of hesitant to post this due to the fact that NOTHING is confirmed, but its causing quite the stir, so having said that...just passing on the info.
Supposedly one of the boys is a friend of Taemins, interesting...

 

[INFO] SM Entertainment To Debut “M1″ in March?

Posted by courtleee on 2:35 AM

SM Entertainment has announced that a new boy band named “M1″ will be debuting in March or April 2011. When fans heard this news, they immediately connected the name to the “female Girls’ Generation” that SM had been preparing.

The nine-member boy band had been dubbed “So Nyun Chun Ji,” or “Boys’ Land.” The rumored members of SNCJ include Jino, who already debuted through SM the Ballad. Others include:

Yoo Chiwon, who is rumored to have vocal talent matching Xiah Junsu,

Ryu Chao, a Chinese member,

Kim Jongin, SHINee Taemin’s friend,

Han Kyuwan (23), an internet ulzzang who failed to make either SS501 or Battle,

and Kim Munkyu (18), the trainee Lee Sooman likes the most.

However, SNCJ already have a lot of antis even before they have debuted. The boys had been brought to TVXQ’s Mirotic concert and had sat playing on their Nintendo DS in the VIP seats, to many Cassiopeian’s anger. They have also said on their Cyworlds that TVXQ, Super Junior, and SHINee were guinea pigs for their debut and that they could not debut because the three groups had not broken up. Some members have even cursed on TVXQ songs “Don’t Say Goodbye” and “Love in the Ice.”

Although these comments surfaced on the boys Cyworld and have since been deleted, posts about them on Korean community sites are still negative. Netizens have continuously blogged about the trainees because of their past comments.

Unfortunately, as the original Cyworld comments have been deleted, we are unable to link directly to the comments. However, we have included numerous blogs that have been commenting on these trainees since their comments.

What do you think about this new group? Are you willing to overlook their past comments?

Speaking of pretty blonde boy singers.....Infinites Sung Jong apparently received an unexpected gift from a fan. And liked it. One of my newest Pinggers.

INFINITE’s ‘Pretty Boy’ Sung Jong receives a unique gift
by VITALSIGN on January 29, 2011 at 9:08 pm
Share246

Ever since his debut, INFINITE’s Sung Jong has been teased over his feminine, ‘goddess-like’ looks. It first began with the group’s photoshoot for “License” magazine, where he was immediately hailed as being the ‘prettiest male idol member’ in the industry.

So when you’re a pretty boy idol, what would be the perfect gift from your fan?

Hilariously, Sung Jong revealed that once received a doll as a gift, in honor of his looks.

In an interview with Osen, Sung Jong was asked to name his most memorable fan gift, and with a laugh, he replied, “I received a doll a while ago… You could dress it up and even put makeup on it…”

Turning to the other members, the reporter then asked whether they thought Sung Jong was beautiful as well, leading them to unanimously shout, “He only looks like a man to us!”

I know next to nothing about Big Bang besides what I see on macro threads, I did read that this is Seungri's first solo release (110103)....having said that, I choose V.V.I.P. for today because this performance has a decidedly Stage Musical feeling which is very close to my own heart due to my many years performing musicals myself. Enjoy and feel free to leave comments! ^.^

This is a new corner to MMR,I have had a few complaints about what I don't post, so in an effort to bring you a better MMR I plan to tackle this. I view so many videos for MMR, I MAKE myself listen to at least 60 seconds, even if I can't stand a vid, because well, I know how hard these artists work and I believe they deserve at least that much of my time. This new corner is all about those vids that, not only make it past the 60 second mark, but that also have that "something" that makes me say "Hhmmmmmm"
This weeks "Something Completely Different" is Park Jung Min with Not Alone
(This one is for YOU chingu and you will understand why when you watch, FS and HD if you're not at work ^.~)

MBLAQ’s Manager Catches A Singer Plagiarizing “Oh Yeah”
Thursday, January 27, 2011 by Sunny Kim in Celebs, Music

Photo Credit: J.Tune Camp

MBLAQ’s manger recently posted a link on his Twitter account to a YouTube video of Ecuadorian artist Andrea Bucaram, performing “Oh Yeah,” which G.O retweeted with the message, “oh wow, they copied well…”

Fans have been outraged at the blatant plagiarism and have been flocking to Andrea Bucaram’s Facebook page and YouTube channel with hate messages and death threats.

The artist posted an update today saying, “it’s mblaq’s song and the credits are on the cd. the rhythm was altered in order to differentiate them a bit, and the translation is practically the same. i don’t understand all of the attacks and why people are leaving those kinds of comments, a lot of which were written simply to offend others. you should be (now referring to the attackers) more humane and if you wish to criticize, do so to help an artist grow. don’t just say things without thinking/thoughlessly (rough translation, literally say things just to say them). The only thing you end up doing is making yourself look bad, like rude, resented people.”

[Link. + Message translated by diapergenie@livejournal.com]

If what she’s saying is true and that the song is a cover, why doesn’t MBLAQ know? Interesting…

SMTown Live from Tokyo and pickins are slim...

Some of the best fancams ever come from the SMTown Live shows but apparently they were very strict in Tokyo because pickins sure are slim, hardly enough vids to post.
Enjoy the few I could find.
Start with the ending? Was one of the only ones I could find...sigh...

Earlier today, Rain made a special appearance at the MCM store in London England, where he shook hands with crowds of fans. If you were willing to pay enough money to purchase a leather Stark backpack where the cheapest one starts at £365*, he signed autographs on your purchases which included a photo with Rain himself.

This isn’t the first time that the singer has made a special appearance for MCM. Last year, Rain/Bi was at the MCM store grand opening at the Lotte Department Store in Seoul.

For all those who couldn’t make it, here’s a fancam of the event!

Thanks to Reshma for the fancam and picture and everyone else who sent in tips!

And.........Onew sangtae strikes again >.<. Apparently it was of the real sort this time, he failed to clear a hurdle and fell hitting his knee quite badly and was eventually carried off on a stretcher. Though I have read some just in reports that he danced during the SMTown Live show in Japan so, hopefully it was not too bad. Damn SME....never releases any important info!!!! *grumbles* Video of the fall.

MBC Idol Sports day pics and vids

What a chance to see every one interacting and having lots of fun, this is above and beyond what we have come to expect. This is them actually having normal fun! Okay there is the occasional fanservice, but for the most part, they are just having fun. I saw it reported that there was a line drawn and the males wouldn't enter the females territory (and vise versa), but that didn't stop groups from the same company interacting, there was plenty of that!

Once again.....the weekend theme just......presents itself, though really this one has been working itself up (and me) all week.

I just LOVE watching the Minnie pat Minho's chest like that, and how Minho keeps running his hands down Tae's arm. Actually Minho looks kinda impatient to leave, I wonder if Jjong is sleeping on the couch >.<.

Had enough of the GDA's? I don't think so, though my eyes burn at just the thought of more video (I swear I didn't sleep more than 3 or 4 nights right before the New Year) this video has every moment you wanted to see but didn't. All behind the scenes from SHINee, Super Junior, 2AM and many many more.....these 10 minutes are the best!
Its not subbed, but you really don't need them as Y Star has provided all the circles and arrows to be sure you don't miss a moment! Enjoy like crazy! ^.^

TVXQ on a Guerilla Date
by GhostWriter on January 22, 2011 at 11:05 am

Three weeks ago, the boys of JYJ froze the streets of Hongdae as they appeared on a Guerilla date on KBS2TV. Now, it was TVXQ’s (Changmin & Yunho) turn as they also shut down the streets of Hongdate on the latest Guerilla date.

Where as JYJ’s date was taken in the day time, this one was taken in the evening and the crowd was just as rowdy. Check it out below!

TVXQ wins MuBank again! SHINee wins Popularity Award! MBLAQ and more!

Oh the world of Kpop is quite busy these days, TVXQ continues to dominate with Keep Your Head Down, SHINee wins yet another popularity Award and apparently Kara is back to negotiating their contract and negotiating with their parents.
Infinite has been a blip on my music radar for a short while now, mostly due to some controversy over their "Scorpion Dance" move. I have previewed many videos, including an in-studio practice session and waited until I could be sure, because it really is an awesome sight! I just wanted to make sure it was real, because quite frankly, the first time I saw it, I didn't even believe it was real....after seeing the live version, I must now conclude, that it is a real move, that even still, and no matter how many times I see it, fascinates me.
First up is TVXQ. They continue to dominate and I must admit, despite any bias I might have, are heads and shoulders above and beyond anyone else right now, you might even say......Its the return of the Kings.
TVXQ continues the SMTown tradition of tossing their congratulatory bouquets to their fans, so awesome ^.^

SHINee wins popularity and bonsang award at the 20th High1 Seoul Music Awards

Despite Jonghyun being home recouping after his recent surgery and rumors that Onew was sick while in Thailand, Shinee's performance rocked with a new remix'd music break. Taemin rocked the long note again and appeared to be up to some mischief while accepting their award. No worries though, he was looking particularly lovely, so no big surprise that Minho was feeling rather touchy feely and kinda manhandling the TaeTae again ^.^
There appeared to have been some mic probs in the beginning, SHINee has been plauged with them recently >.<.

The Music break lyrics:
SHINee makes you dance with me

just gonna be with you, baby

whisper of the crazy party

SHINee makes you come with me

just gonna be with you, baby

whisper of the crazy party

Let me tell you this song is the LUCIFER

im never gonna give you up

we are the SHINee SHINee SHINee SHINee

never gonna let you down

Shinee accepts popularity award.
Onew always looks so surprised when Shinee wins, Taemin is up to mischief and Minho grabs and pulls him back from Key.
