 One of Korea's most popular modern rock groups, Nell, is next in line for military service. Drummer Jung Jaewon is set to leave for his two year service on December 11th, with rumours of Jongwan and Junghoon having to follow before January 2009. There has been no news on Jaekyung. Nell has just released a special limited edition dvd boxset of their Stay concert that took place on July 19th at Seoul Olympic Stadium, which includes a mini album of 5 new songs. Their latest single, Part 2, will be the last we hear from these four talented boys for a while. Their fans will certainly miss them while they are gone. Some fans estimate it could be as long as 5 years depending on when they all enter into their military service. Kim Jongwan, Lee Junghoon, Jung Jaewon and Lee Jaekyung hwaiting!

And I'm back from the dead to bring you some DBSK ♥ Trusting that everyone remembers srennuj's post about BB earnings , have a look at this: Um. Yeah I don't understand Korean either. -_-;;; BUT THANKFULLY SOMEONE ON THE INTERWEBS DOES:
Just did the math:  O_________O The amount of digits is making my head hurt. Well it's nice to know that I somehow contributed to the boy's new hot tub/BMW/branded undies. :D But there's a bit of speculation hanging around the 20/80 split since we don't actually know if DBSK is under the standard contract and are most probably, as of right now, in a position to request better terms. And moving on, I want to get me some of that:  pic creds: mrskimj_j@LJA 19+ sticker in a thankfully, very considerate place - 1:14 AM
 familiar? yeah I think so... On the right side is new comer Cous Yuki while on the left side is DBSK member, Kim Jae Joong And the first picture? Definitely NOT KIM JAE JOONG. Well, the resemblance aren't that much except for some pictures, to me that is. LOL!!Thoughts? - 1:08 AM
You ain't seeing enough of Toho hotness yet xDDDD Tohoshinki will be releasing their latest Japanese single-Balero on 21st January 2009.  image credits: as taggedSunday, December 7, 2008 - 11:04 PM
The Kpop industry is currently lacking of new blood (talented new blood that is). But I'm not sure whether these new blood are talented enough to save the industry from recycling songs over and over again. JYP ENT's sister company, Cube Ent is I bet most of you are familiar with Hyuna, a former member of Wondergirls while Choi Gina made her appearance in 2PM's hit PV, 10 out of 10.. Jang SeoHee on the other hand was formerly considered to join Wondergirls but she was being substituted in the last minute. So if you're still wondering how they look like, here're some pictures of them. Gina  SeoHee Hyuna credits: daum + soompi + AF - 6:06 PM
 SNSD prepare something special for their fans that is filming Mnet reality show, “Factory Girl”. The show will have the girls taking on the role of editors for a fashion magazine (”ELLE girl“) where they’ll be looking at trends for girls in their teens and in their 20s. (The original article said something about how it’s a reality show version of “The Devil Wears Prada”.) This is their resume. (Click for larger View)
This is their first episode with subs provided by soshisubs. The first episode talks about their fashion sense as in how they dress & them as an editor. A fashion stylist, is it? Yea, her, she will observe the SNSD girls' fashion, see thier wardrobe and their beauty products they used. Well, mostly its compliment *coughs* from the stylist. There's one thing i'm not really ok with because Tae Yeon & YooNa left for their activities about 10 minutes?after the show started. So it would be better, if the whole team work together as in no one is missing. If you are a big fans of fashion and you doesn't mind SNSD. This is an interesting show to be watch plus you can see the fun side of SNSD.  Wonder Bakery by Wonder Girls Wonder Girls are starring in a Mnet reality show called “Wonder Bakery” in which they will be pairing up with aspiring bakers to compete for a cash prize of 10 million Won .       I watched the first episode. It's funny seeing the guys and the girls expression when they knew their partner. And the guys are rather flirty with the girls. LOL SoHee got the best looking partner & that really worries her. Wonder Bakery compared to Factory Girls, it's a super different show. Because this show talks about food and being the strongest team to win the money, while factory girl is about fashion. The girls gets a bit messy too in here. I'll strongly recommend you to watch this show if you are a fan of food or at least pastry. ^^ Ok that's all from me. By Ikaru. credits to soompi & wonderland. Saturday, December 6, 2008 - 9:39 PM

This is quite an old news but just want to let those who still doesn't know about this. WRONGWROKS is a tee line which produces the 'coolest' tee in town. That's what HongKies(HongKong) & Taiwanese are saying. Their base, if i'm not mistaken its somewhere in USA? They were even interviewed by Hong Kong & Taiwan fashion magazine.So what about them got to do with Colonize? Try and take a look at the picture below.  WRONGWROKS Dora Tee Series The tee even get featured in HongKong Fashion Magazine Looks Familiar? Well, its the tee and hoodie that bigbang oftenly wear! Not just bigbang but other kpop artist too! The other time, i saw Hwang Bo's assistant or was it security guard wearing the colonize tee. xD    COLONIZE TEE  According to wrongwroks, they created the dora series tee a year ago. And one fine day, they got many emails by the wrongworks fans reporting about some korean idol wearing tee similiar to wrongwroks design. This is what they say when they saw BigBang wearing Colonize Tee.
What did they do? They launched a new line of tee called " Colonize Steals Wrongwroks " series!   its been a year we didn't launch any style of the Dora tee series, we finally decided to launch this series again in different color camo's regarding to this COLONIZE STEALS WRONGWROKS thing , we have launch similar color to what they have made it in Korea...this series will launch FIRST in our webstore and also in SCULPOFNY, (SEOUL KOREA) , it comes in 2 options, buying individually or in a set of 4 with a great deal (it has to be same size) ! Then what did colonize said? Well i'm not quite sure. There weren't any reply from colonize to Wrongwroks but wrongwroks did mention something about colonize clarified that they didn't copy? Well, if you do know about this do drop a comment. It'll be super usefull~ By Ikaru. source:wrongwroks. - 12:33 AM
 Family Outing or you call it 패밀리가 떴다 in korean. It means either "The family is up" or "The family come/came out". What is the show about? Residents from the countryside are picked and given a free vacation for one night and two days. During this time, the MCs and various additional guests form a 'family' and look after their house, experiencing the lives of these people. They must complete different chores and jobs, and play fun & hilarious games while they're at it. The peoples involve are
According to some 'site', this show was made to beat 2 days, 1 night hosted by Kang Ho Dong . The result is? No one knows yet. But Family Outing did surpas We Got Married.Back to family outing, for each episode a special guest star will appear such as members from Shinhwa ( Dong Wan, Junjin , Hye Sung ) , BigBang( G-Dragon ) , Ft.Island (Hong Ki) , SNSD ( Tae Yeon ) , TVXQ ( Yunho & Junsu) , even the world class idol Bi Rain & many more.  Some of the highlights from the show include 'Ramen Soup' , Ye Jin's Skill handling with seafood & her bribing skill, Chun Hee's clumsyness , The dumb & dumber brothers , The sly eyes brothers , Hyo Ri funniness/stupidness/patheticness , Rain's Tango with Hyori & so much more. For me, it's super hilarious. Everytime i watched it, I'll either laugh till i cry or cry + stomachache! Youtube do offers some episode but not all. But you can surely find the ones with TVXQ , Rain , Dong Wan , Hye Sung & some cut out scenes of JunJin. That's what i observed. FO Fansubs do offer until epi 14, if i'm not mistaken but lately the site restrict the number of people watchin through there because of some bashin from unsatisfied viewers. Currently they won't be opening up any membership but they will in February 2009. So please do try and watch it . I recommend you to start with the episode featuring Bi Rain and TVXQ. It's just HILARIOUS. By: Ikaru ( sorry if this bored you. ) much credits to soompi. Friday, December 5, 2008 - 9:04 PM
 Hey people. Srennuj here. We all know that stars make big money to stuff in their deep fat pockets but seriously, how much do they actually earn? Big bang is a very famous and well known band right now and practically Korea's sweet heart. They're smoothly climbing their way up the world of fame. Success with songs like Lies, Last Greeting, Haru haru, Sunset Glow and much much more has hyper spaced them up in the sky and knocking the socks off K-Charts everywhere. Obviously, big success + cute boys + golden hearts = $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ *drum rolls* Big Bang earns... 36 Billion KRW in 2008. Here am I thinking...2008 isn't even over yet... 36 billion KRW is equivalent to 24 Million USD. They earn it from their concerts, CF activities, endorsement, album sales, online music sales, merchandise and many other things they. I guess all this hard work really paid off huh? Labels: Big bang - 5:55 PM
Hello folks, and yes this is another post of the day :D *coughs* allow me to introduce mahself: Mrs Park, the eldest and perhaps THE MOST NOT Funniest among the bunch, loves to cling on the internet looking for more (YES!
