So Nyeo Shi Dae charismatic leader TaeYeon gets a new nickname “ByunTaeYeon*” recently?
TaeYeon was seen playing with her new present before her MBC ChinChin radio show recently. But why is she called “ByunTaeYeon“?
*ByunTae: Pervert



Because the present is like a toy and when you pushes the butt of the figure with a ballpoint, it will shout ‘oops’.

'The Tyra Show' to end it's five season run this spring 

After five seasons, two Daytime Emmy awards and too many girl-power episodes to count, Tyra Banks is announcing the end of The Tyra Show.

“This will be the last season of The Tyra Show,” Banks tells PEOPLE exclusively. “I’ve been loving having fun, coming into your living rooms, bedrooms, hair salons for the past 5 years.”

Wrapping at the end of its fifth season in the spring of 2010, it will be lights out for the show that brought viewers memorable weave-exposing, cellulite-revealing and tear-jerking moments.

Banks will focus on the launch of Bankable Studios, a N.Y.-based film production company currently reviewing possible projects. Sticking to her mission, Banks aims to bring “positive images of women to the big screen,” says an industry insider.

“My next huge steps will allow me to reach more women and young girls to help us all feel as fierce as we truly are,” Banks says.

Adds the insider: “Tyra is sad because she’ll be missing so much of the daily connection to her viewers, but excited at the same time to be taking on a new challenge.”

With encouragement from filmmaker Tyler Perry and longtime mentor Oprah Winfrey, Banks is “redefining beauty for women in film,” adds the source. “With Oprah’s big announcement this year, I think that gave Tyra the confidence to get out there and follow her longtime dream of film producing.”

But fashion fiends worry not. America’s Next Top Model is slated to return for its 15th season in February along with Banks’s ABC show True Beauty.

“There’s a lot cooking right now and a lot of fire burning in my heart,” Banks writes in an open letter on her Web site. “And I salute you my amazing family of viewers; without you there never would have been a Tyra Show. I really love you all.”

It appears that Park Myung Soo hasn’t gotten tired of singing about noodles as he plans to sing about udon when he comes back as a singer early next year. And this time, Park Myung Soo has apparently enlisted the help of none other than Ga-In of Brown Eyed Girls.

An insider working closely with Park Myung Soo stated: “In his new album, Park Myung Soo decided to include the song ‘Udon,’ since ‘Naeng Myun’ with SNSD’s Jessica became an instant hit… We are currently in the process of producing the song and right now and Ga-In is the one we have reached out to to sing the female part.”

In case you want to watch Park Myung Soo and Jessica sing about the glories of Naeng Myun one more time, the fantastic duo will be performing the song at the 2009 MBC Entertainment Awards (연예대상), which will air on December 29th.

Will you be tuning in?

I wonder if the screen campaign will follow the cute/sweet/colourful thing, anything would beat the chav-fest that was S3's though. I still love S2's epic trail.

Children of Empire (yes that's their name) will be releasing their MV teaser on Jan 5th so get to know more about the members before their long awaited debut. Some people expressed interest in learning more about them so I compiled together information and pictures from various sources into a helpful guide below.

But first, I'd like to clear up the FALSE claim made by allkpop that they changed their name to ZE:A. According to their international forum (Royal 9), ZE:A comes from JeA (제의) which is an abbreviation for Jegugui Aideul (제국의 아이들) or "Children of Empire". So ZE:A is only a shorthand. Their name is still "Children of Empire" like it says on the album cover. Also, their label obviously realized "Child Of Empire" was grammatically incorrect which is why they're now using "Children".

MBLAQ's Mir isn't just a simple music boy that lives in absolute quality - he's a fan-loving one as well.

Mir's very own superstar sister, actress Go Eun Ah, posted a picture of her brother in a teddy bear kigurumi pajamas (here comes the aww's) on her CyWorld minihompy on December 27th. She even took her time to write a lengthy story behind the picture for the deprived fans to nibble on.

( Get ready to say 'awww' everyone 8D )

Dang, you've gotta give Mir an A+ for knowing how to appreciate his fans' love. With MBLAQ's popularity skyrocketing the band way to the top, this boy will soon be drowned in these lovely gifts for sure!

OMG guys, I’ve spent at least one hour preparing this post. Hope you’ll enjoy it.
I personally think they're quite promising. I hope their company won't screw their careers. :<

Also: hi guys, hi! :D

A while ago we were introduced to Egg, an oddball trio that brought us bright colours and shiny suits.

Now they're back with another MV for their new song, One One Eight. It looks like they've matured... sort of, with a more autotuney sound and a sleeker image.

CN4Iran - The Chinese Inspired by the People of Iran

"During today’s protests in Iran, as always, Twitter saw a surge of tweets from protests in Iran giving updates on the latest developments and using Twitter for coordination purposes.

However, this time around, people in China quickly joined Iranians in spreading the word and we witnessed an outpouring of tweets in Chinese reporting on the situation. ‘CN4Iran’ quickly became one of the top ten trending topics on twitter.

The people of China, who like Iranians, live under an oppressive regime are standing in solidarity with freedom fighters of Iran and drawing inspiration from them; one tweet read “Today we free Tehran, tomorrow we take on Beijing."

just thought this is nice to share because it's great that Iran is inspiring people and all these people are coming together for their quest for freedom. I'm sure Iran is having a huge impact on the peoples of the Middle East too, the Arabs primarily.
