KBS 2TV ‘Entertainment Tonight’ made a caption mistake.

Broadcast on December 26th, ‘Entertainment Tonight’ featured Year-end special questionnaire to select stars of “Top News Maker in Year 2009″.

The members of TVXQ who are currently in legal dispute with their label SM Entertainment were selected by votes as the Top 4 of 2009 News Maker. During the vote process, ‘Entertainment Tonight’ put a caption “Junsu, Changmin, and Yoochun are facing lawsuit against their label company” in introducing the case.

As the problem is, TVXQ members who are actually in lawsuit against SM are Micky Yoochun, Xiah Junsu, and Hero Jaejoong. While Choikang Changmin and U-Know Yunho are the rest members who remain in position with SM. This caption mistake is not a problem that can easily be ignored. Moreover, the news wrote ‘Micky Yoochun’ (‘믹’키유천) as ‘Meiky Yoochun’ (‘미’키유천).

TVXQ fans demanded a correction from ‘Entertainment Tonight’ regarding these mistakes. “If it’s me who get it wrong, it may be okay. But how can you have this kind of mistake?” “Names are sensitive issue in this case, and you get it wrong… it’s ridiculous.” “Just quick correct it and make an apology to TVXQ and their fans.” as the fans accused.

Mods, the original newsen article wasn't linked to.

A Chinese news site has recently put out an article titled "Hangeng has been belittled by SNSD" and caused a stir amongst fans.

The chinese media website sohu.com reported on the 25th that "The reason why Hangeng has left SM entertainment is not only because of the displeasures of his contract and constraining his activities, but he received a wound due to the disrespectfulness towards him by other artists."

Sohu.com also stated "Super Junior member Hangeng filed a lawsuit against SM Entertainment, Hangeng was also hurt in the past by Korea's famous group So Nyeo Shi Dae by their harsh words towards him. Why Hangeng left his company is not only because of his contract's unfair length and clauses, but also because he was neglected when he had gastritis and kidney illness from when he was working nonstop for two years."

Idk who you are, but that is a cute little story.

Han Seungyeon revealed on SBS Quiz Sixth Sense, Kara's special secret diet.

Many celebrities like to lie and say that they just eat healthy to remain thin, but of course Kara is up front and honest as usual.

Seungyeon said, "We start dieting right before our album comes out. We love eating, so we just starve ourselves before an album. 1~2 weeks before shooting for our album jacket, no one eats."

During the same episode, another female idol revealed a secret about her body. When asked about a flaw in her flawless body, After School's Kahi answered, "My arms are a bit thick. When I gain weight, it goes to my arms."

But isn't Kahi nothing but muscle?

The episode airs on the 27th.

Famous MC Kang Ho Dong has hit gold again at this year's KBS Entertainment Awards.

Last year was an all time high for the plus size MC when he received the Best Entertainer award, but he has managed to hold on onto his crown this year!

Although he had to compete with long-time friend/colleague/heavyweight (no pun intended) Yoo Jae Suk, Kang Ho Dong pulled through with his role in "1 Night 2 Days."

In his acceptance speech, Kang Ho Dong apologized to his close friend Yoo Jae Suk and also thanked his mentor Lee Gyung Gyu. "It was 15 years ago. Lee Gyung Gyu said, 'I'm going to take responsibility for your shows. If you fail, I fail.'"

Kang Ho Dong has been all over the place this year, MC'ing for shows such as "Strong Heart" on SBS and "Golden Fishery" on MBC and this might be the first of many as we count down the year in the next couple of days.

Just like any major event in Korea, k-pop was a must have at the awards.

Invincible Youth group G7 performed a song while idol groups like 2PM and Brown Eyed Girls also added color to the ceremony with their own hit tracks.

In the entertainment industry, the end of a year is a season about watching and talking about “people”. Many media outlets select their “person of the year” and people flock to year-end awards shows to hear a quote from stars that they do not get to see often. <10Asia> picked our own figures of the year, but there is no red carpet or photo spotlights for the stars to enter upon. Our selection of “persons of 2009” are not top stars who attained the most popularity from the public, but people who changed the landscape of Korea’s entertainment industry and stimulated the public with experiences that we had not had before.

I guess Japanese TVXQ fans aren't the only ones striving to put their feelings in print on Korean papers - Baidu BAR, a TVXQ fan group on Baidu, purchased an advertisement that was printed on Gyunghyang, daily Korean newspaper on December 26, TVXQ's sixth anniversary.

On the advertisement, the members of Baidu BAR left a message to SM Entertainment:
>

You are trying to cut the dreams that [TVXQ] has been creating for the past six years, and are hurting the hearts of hundreds of thousands of people who felt joy because of them.

Stop your actions that are hurting the five members. Let them sing freely without any constraints.

The storm will wither soon. We will protect them forever so that they are not harmed. We will forever wait.

We are always standing by TVXQ

sooo haha I've started writing the sequel to punishment game and it's coming out to be a lot longer than a standard oneshot... (In my opinion anyway)

I'm debating on posting it in pieces or waiting until it's completely finished and posting it all together... if you have any preferences about that let me know... The sections would make very short chapters... I have 3 done and I'm working on the 4th... i expect at least another 2 or 3 after that... haha 

oh and I realized that some of you might want a smutty sequel... and um... i'm not comfortable in writing smut since I have no experience in that area... and i don't think i should write about things i don't know much about ... so yeah... if any of you want to make your own sequel to this i have absolutely no problem with that... i think it would actually be really fun to read... i really would enjoy others takes on a punishment game between hiruma and mamori... i guess you could think of it as a prompt... if any one is interested...


anyway i'll stop taking up space with a silly update... bye! The sequel should be coming soon! (ish...)

BleedingCool.com showed it off yesterday. Your first look at the cover to Wormwood: Gentleman Corpse Volume 2 the Deviant Edition Hardcover. Should be out later next year. ( As opposed to early next year ). When I know more details I'll scream them to the world. Going to be a large chunk of extras and spiffy trim in this one, as with the first Hardcover.

Oh, this makes me SO happy. Lee Jung-jae (Typhoon, Oh Brothers) has been cast as the husband in the highly anticipated remake of classic Korean film The Housemaid, putting him in the middle of a confrontation between veteran actress Jeon Do-yeon and rising star Seo Woo.

The remake of the 1960 dark psychological thriller had initially attracted notice when casting Jeon Do-yeon (Secret Sunshine) as the housemaid who upends the lives of a married couple, then again stirred buzz when adding Seo Woo (Tamra the Island). In the original, the spouses are middle-aged and the maid is younger than the husband she seduces. However, this remake is taking a modern spin in casting Jeon as an older femme fatale who is brought in to work for a younger couple. (I say “older” but it hardly means she’s old; it’s just in relation to the original film. Jeon is 36, the same age as Lee, while Seo Woo is 24.) Still, even if the plot remains intact, this reversal does significantly alter the politics of the three-way relationship, and ought to make for some interesting shifts in dynamic.

I had heard rumors that Lee might be cast, but was not getting my hopes up in case those were just rumors. But with three really strong actors, a strong director, and source material that’s widely considered the best from the golden age of Korean cinema, well, expectations are climbing.

The Housemaid will begin filming next month and release in 2010.

I AM SO EXCITED OK I THINK I CAN CRY. He is a FINE actor and The Housemaid is a Korean cult classic and is a masterpiece in its right. You can watch the film here in it's entirety online.
