T.O.P & Lee Hyori??! + Hana Yori Dango goes Korea??

Yea. I can definitely hear the sound of VIPs gasps as I picture the scene. At the MKMF 2008 Award which was broadcast live in Korea, Japan and China on Saturday, millions saw T.O.P kissing Lee Hyori on the lips while performing a special stage of "Lie".

Lee Hyori was standing the middle of the stage as T.O.P circled around her before going to her. He then seem to be attempting a kiss on her forehead. A sigh of relief for VIPs as he turned his head, smiling at the crowd. Gasps and shouts as T.O.P suddenly kisses Lee Hyori on the lips.

YG Entertainment explained the kiss, “The kissing scene that you see in the special stage was arranged upon the request of the MKMF organizers, Mnet. It was just an effect for the stage. It was prepared beforehand with ample notification for both parties who exchanged ideas on how to accomplish this. Please don’t think otherwise and treat this as a nice surprise.” T.O.P and Lee Hyori's kiss scene has thus been the most searched term this few days.

I'm SUPRISINGLY unhurt by this news probably maybe because Lee Hyori's the girl I approve of (line picked from the japanese drama "Hana Yori Dango"--check it out!! It's actually a Japanese manga but it's soo good they adapted it into a Japanese life action drama TV series & served as the basis for the life action drama Taiwanese TV series "Meteor Garden". They are currently filming the Korean version of this. The F4 characters of the Korean drama includes Kim Hyun Joong--hottie + best friend of TVXQ's Hero Jaejoong....wow, I got side-tracked there, but incase you haven't heard of "Hana Yori Dango" nor Kim Hyun Joong, here's some pictures for ya--probably to droll over or somethin')

Hana Yori Dango / Boys Over Flowers (Japanese Version)

Hana Yori Dango Final--Screening in Cathay Cineplex now!!

Meteor Garden


Hana Yori Dango (Korean Version)

Kim Hyun Joong--leader of Korean boy band SS501 replacing Shun in the Korean version
(but still equally hot!!)


Oguri Shun as Rui Hanazawa in the Japanese version


Oguri Shun who is also the male lead of the Japanese drama Hana Kimi

Actually, I think the character of Rui Hanazawa resembles Natsume Hyuga of Gakuen Alice.
Wait, scratch that.

Wow, I gotta stop myself from typing!! If I keep going on, I wonder who'll be next? I know!! How about Professor Utonium from the Powerpuff Girls??

TVXQ Finally Winning At Music Bank

081107 Music Bank @ KBS

About time!! I mean, they got no.1 in many countdowns for several weeks like Mnet's "M Countdown" & SBS "Inkigayo" but they still haven't got no.1 in Music Bank?? For as much as I love Wonder Girls, still topping Music Bank's chart for 5 weeks & winning TVXQ?? I don't think so. I sooo wanted to subscribe Mnet & SBS, but they only got KBS in Malaysia (sucks, right?).

When I saw the no.1 candidates, I just keep laughing, literally. The no.1 candidates are: TVXQ-Mirotic, Wonder Girls-Nobody and TVXQ-Love In The Ice. So, after Music Bank FINALLY putting TVXQ's Mirotic on top of the chart (which they deserved), I'm like "OK, I forgive you. At least you still put them in their rightful places-no.1 & 2!!"

They conveyed their sense of thanks to fans and staffs who have been helping and supporting them. “Thank you, this award is really awesome, really thanks, especially to all fans who are continuing to provide us supports.”

Poor JJ. 1 day before the Music Bank day, he had to flight back from Jeju Island (where he filmed "Heaven's Postman"). He looked so exhausted...

Cute!!

But how do one have such a hectic lifestyle and still be oh-so-fine???

PS: He dyed back his hair to black again! (my favourite colour on him)

Reason To Start A Blog

Aww man, I'm bored to death. I think my computer has really many viruses in it because I can't seem to access in Youtube, Friendster, Facebook & many many more websites. The only thing i can get into is this, blogger. So, to keep myself from bored to death, i keep myself busy with my new friend...BLOGGER!!! I'm pathetic, am I? Maybe I should adopt a pet instead?? NAH!! I'll just make the animals suffer!! I remember the last time I had pets...hamsters...they die because...wait, is it because I didn't feed them or oversex? (is THAT even possible??) Err, let's just spare you the details...

Mirotic - TVXQ (Album)

I highly recommend this album. This is TVXQ's newest & 4th Korean album. The album title is a self made word by member Hero Jaejoong. He meant to use "miro" (it means maze in Korean) and the english suffix "-tic" to make the word "mirotic".
Their 1st single of this album uses the same name as their album. "Mirotic" means that you can't get off their spell once they cast it on you...(it did had an effect on me!! I mean, when i started listening to this song, i'm hypnotized & couldn't take my ears off this song...)

Well, the song "Wrong Number" which is going to be their 2nd single of the album, features Hero Jaejoong rap in their song for the 1st time. Great song!! I definitely love JJ's rap~ He even wrote the rap part himself.

My favourite songs in this album are "Mirotic", "Wrong Number", "Crazy Love", "You're My Melody", "Flower Lady" & "Forgotten Season"...long list, right? What can I say? I love ALL of their songs.

Yup, the Version C of the album. It's expected to release on 12 November in Korea & 14 November in Yesasia. This album comes with 4 new bonus tracks which include 2 songs composed by the members Hero Jaejoong & Micky Yoochun. Composition & lyrics of new track "Don't Cry My Love" is made by Hero Jaejoong while "Love Bye Love" is made by Micky Yoochun. (Good thing I didn't buy the album yet. I was planning to buy the version B of the album & this version came out..which should i buy??? I desperately want JJ's solo composition!! Good thing they put it out now, i mean, YC composed 50++ songs while JJ 30++ already!! Or maybe I should wait till the version D & E of the album...) The song "Wish" is a collaboration of TVXQ's Max Changmin & Xiah Junsu and Super Junior's Ryeowook & Kyuhyun while "Don't Say Goodbye" is a sentimental song (obviously). If you buy the special edition of this album (released in December) you will get to hear Ahra's narration in the beginning of "Don't Say Goodbye" & a bonus track of "Wrong Number" in the edited MV version AND autographed messages + Photo Story 2008.
