From 100809 Youngstreet when Boa guest starred on Heechul's radio show. They talk about SHINee, f(x), and of course HYUNGWHORE, who is officially a noona-whore too.
Okay, these are unsubbed but they're ADORABLE. + the raccoon named "Jiggy" is almost as cute as them.
Minwoo's 32nd birthday (in Korean years) was actually last month but Dongwan just posted this picture of them at his birthday party.
ZE:A’s Dongjoon donated over $8000 (10,000,000 WON) to charity.
Where did he come up with all this money? Well, Dongjoon won the MVP title on MTV’s Idol United on the 7th. As a prize, he received a gold sneaker trophy which is worth over $8000.
With his athletic skills, he was able to beat out all the other idols in the competition, and he decided to donate all his winnings to a care facility in Suwon.
He also said that he would use part of the money to get something for his members and fans.
Even if this was a publicity stunt, the money definitely went to a good cause, so hats off to Dongjoon!
T-ara’s Hyomin posed for several luxurious photos while sporting a chic black dress, and showed a new hairstyle that emphasized her bangs.
Her large sunglasses and her black dress further add onto her chic charm.
New hair in K-pop always meant for a comeback. Hoping T-ARA album would release sooner.
DEM SHOES :| But omg, those overalls...
CUBE Entertainment's idol groups, 4minute and BEAST, were awarded the Golden Disk Award from Singapore, Malaysia, and Thailand.
On August 10th at 5PM, BEAST and 4minute were received the Golden Disk Award (for their albums, 'BEAST is the Best' and 'For Muzik') at the '2010 Summer CUBE Stars Party' at Seoul, Samseongdong in the Samyu Center Event Hall.
 We will work harder to get awards like these."
Because 4minute and BEAST sold about 5,000 copies of their album, they were chose to be given the Golden Disk Award. 4minute received the Golden Disk Award from Thailand, and BEAST received the award from Singapore, Malaysia, and Taiwan.
In the meantime, CUBE's artists, BEAST, Mario, G.NA, etc. and their trainees gathered on this day and their magnificent performances unfolded.
miss A’s maknae Suzy had her past photos revealed by detective netizens, but there’s now more past pictures being revealed.
Last time, the pictures of Suzy were from when she was in elementary school. This time, the pictures seem to show an older Suzy, since she’s wearing a uniform.
CUBE Entertainment's artists 4minute, BEAST, Mario (Jung Hanlim), G.NA (Choi Gina), etc. held a '2010 Summer CUBE Stars Party' on August 10 at 7PM at Seoul's Gangnamgoo Samseongdong in the Samyu Center Event Hall.
In this year's '2010 Summer CUBE Stars Party', CUBE trainees were revealed in the beginning, allowing us to predict that CUBE's next stars will be born after Mario, 4minute, BEAST, and Gina.
Instead of keeping their rookie project a secret, CUBE Entertainment revealed the organization of their 8 teams that are preparing character, strong-will, and skill under a confident rookie developing system. CUBE announced, "The team that receives excellent evaluation on stage during the '2010 Summer CUBE Stars Party' will debut on to the NEXT CUBE STAR."
One official expressed his confidence by saying, "Even when January's 'CUBE Stars Party' ended, the team's rivalry started in anticipation for the past 7 months. On August 10th, they will show you their sharpened and improved skills."
On this day, 4minute (who is growing quickly all over Asia) was in the middle of doing their activities in Japan, so they sent their greetings through a video, and BEAST prepared a magnificent performance as the leaders of CUBE.
ETA lots of pix. I need that 4 member boyband to debut like nao.
She has topped music charts in both Korea and Japan. She made her debut in the U.S. and took on the challenge of making it onto the Billboard charts and was recently cast in a Hollywood dance pic which will be produced by the makers of the film "Step Up." It took her ten years to achieve all these accomplishments. And BoA is now twenty-four years old. In that respect, "Hurricane Venus," BoA's first record release in Korea in five years, carries more meaning than it being just a new album. What kind of music does this singer, who has achieved almost everything she can achieve commercially and is now reaching her peak as a singer and dancer, want to make? Below are excerpts from a press conference with BoA, held on August 4.
Q: You have come to celebrate the tenth year of your career at a young age. How do you feel looking back on it?
BoA: Honestly, it's not like I have a certain feeling. I did this and that and ten years passed by, I don't know how. But I thought about what I did during the past ten years, and I realized I really did do a lot of things. (laugh). I put out a lot of albums, I went to Japan and the U.S. I feel like I constantly learned [foreign] languages for ten years. (laugh) But there are more days lying ahead than days that have passed by. I will be thirty-five at my twentieth anniversary, and that is not much older than how old Lee Hyori is now (laugh) so I want to work harder at being a dance singer.
I think this is from the same press conference as this series, but by different reporter, so some of the content is the same while some is new.
With SNSD’s Tiffany and Yuri stepping down from their MC roles on Music Core, the MBC music program is still looking for full time MC’s to replace the girls.
Until then, they’re going to use one-time MCs. Last week, SHINee’s Onew and f(x)’s Krystal filled in, and this week, the JYP family will step in as well.
2PM’s Nichkhun and miss A’s Suzy will be this week’s Music Core MCs. This week is another summer special, so they have an important job as MCs. The big news is that Onew and Krystal will be there as well.
That’s right. This time, there will be four Music Core MCs. Do you think that’ll be a good idea or will it be too messy?
Excited for Khun & Suzy! I think it's going to be awesome ngl (anything with Onew is awesome), wanna see how that pans out though, the 4 emcees thing.
F.cuz's baby joins Twitter!
*raises hand* no matter how bad that ramen sounds, i'd eat it 'cause i love him. but why is he talking about ramen, idek.
Perhaps from the Concert DVD?
PARK YOOCHUN, YOU WOULD. 
That gap has grabbed hold of girls' hearts!
The photoshoot was posted here.
The August 14th hand shaking event celebrating “Mister” starts at 1:00pm, registration will begin from 8:00am at Shinkiba Studio Coast. Gekidan Hitori commented that he’s a member of KARA’s official fan club and also showed off his “KARA” collections at the end of the show.
It has been confirmed in a statement by his agency, Boundaries of Forest, that the father of actor Bong Tae Gyu was killed on August 8th in a mountaineering accident in Yangpyeong, Gyeonggi Province. The exact circumstances surrounding the accident have not been confirmed or released, but police were investigating.
Bong Tae Gyu is best known for his roles in movies such as See You After School, The Birth Of A Family, Two Faces Of My Girlfriend, A Tale Of Legendary Libido, Youth Groove, and most recently Survival. He also played a cameo role in the Kdrama Personal Taste.
Tae Gyu is the youngest in his family having two older sisters, because of this he was very close to his father. He is reportedly extremely heartbroken over the sudden unexpected death of his father. No plans have yet been finalized for his father’s wake and funeral. His girlfriend, actress Lee Eun and her family were said to be helping his family with the arrangements. Our sincere sympathy and condolences to Bong Tae Gyu and his family.
I feel not enough people in this community know of this talented man. He is a truly great comedic actor. Two Faces of My Girlfriend will always be my favorite Korean film, and is definitely worth a watch.

Another Neil Gaiman book signing?
The Super Lotto grand draw?
Chinese knock-offs of the iPhone4?
The reason became clear once the gates were finally opened and everyone made a beeline for the record store.

North Korea has opened a YouTube account sharing clips praising the isolated communist state and denying allegations that it sank a South Korean warship.
Eleven clips under the name of uriminzokkiri, a North Korean government website, are appearing today.
One English-language video almost six minutes in duration praises leader Kim Jong-Il, calling him a 'general sent by the heaven'.
Another clip posted a week ago berates South Korean Foreign Minister Yu Myung-Hwan over his controversial remarks that young South Korean leftists should not enjoy freedom in the South but should live under Kim Jong-Il.
North Korea has been expanding the use of the internet in its propaganda offensive, Yonhap news agency said.
In June, a North Korean woman uploaded a clip praising the communist state on YouTube, drawing media attention in South Korea and abroad.
Lee Kikwang says, "My BEAST members who were my back dancers...I'm sorry"
[My Daily = Intern Reporter Ham Taesoo] Lee Kikwang, who was selected as a new MC for ‘Seung Seung Jang Koo (also known as Win Win),’ showed his sorrowful feelings towards his BEAST members.
Lee Kikwang began to tear up as he said “Sorry” to his BEAST members, whom featured on the episode in congratulating him on his MC debut for KBS 2TV ‘Win Win,’ which aired on the 10th.
The situation was that before BEAST had their debut, Lee Kikwang was a solo artist with the stage name ‘AJ.’ Yoon Doojoon, Yong Junhyung, and Yang Yoseob were back dancers for Lee Kikwang as one day, during their back dancer period, Yoon Doojoon and Yong Junhyung cried together and comforted one another in not having a dorm to live in as their living circumstances were miserable.
Lee Kikwang, who found out his colleagues’ hardships later on, said, “Once my promotions for AJ ended, I was then able to know the hardships of my colleagues” and “I’m always sorry for finding out later on about their hardships of my friends who helped rap and dance for me as they didn’t say a word,” as he couldn’t raise his head.
Continuing on from that, he said “I can’t live without BEAST. I’m really grateful” as the atmosphere was heartwarming.
