[News] A Pink shows seven pastel colours


The Korean pop market is dominated by idol groups, including Girls' Generation, 2NE1 and Wonder Girls.

For new girl group A Pink, which debuted in April with the first album "Seven Springs of A Pink," it will not be easy to survive in the competitive K-pop scene. However, it will differentiate itself from other girl groups by showing unique colors of the seven members, they said.

"If we say other girl groups have bold, primary colors, we have pastel tones. Because we're relatively young, we tend to perform our age," Hong Yu-kyung, 17, told The Korea Herald.

"We've had chances to watch rehearsals of other idol groups and we learn a lot from them," said Jeong Eun-ji, 18, who is the main vocalist.

The other members of A Pink are Son Na-eun, 17, Yun Bo-mi, 18, Park Cho-rong, 20, Oh Ha-yeong, 15 and Kim Nam-ju, 16.

A Cube Entertainment, their management agency, has been promoting the girl group since March through a series of weekly cable program "A Pink News" on TrendE.

Son has been known to some fans of boy band BEAST, since she was featured as the lead female character for the boy band's "Beautiful" music video. Park was also featured in the Japanese version of BEAST's music video "Shock."

A Pink members have been training under Cube Entertainment but debuted with A Cube Entertainment, a spin-off of Cube Entertainment.

A Pinks album "Seven Springs of A Pink" was produced by Super Changddaee, who worked on 2PM's "I Hate You" and "Tired of Waiting." Their vocal trainers included veteran R&B vocalist Kim Jo-han, who recently joined MBC's program "I Am a Singer."

After promoting their title song "I Don't Know" for several months, A Pink has embarked on a new song, "It Girl" with more powerful and bold group dance, members said.

"It Girl" was composed and written by Kim Geon-woo, also known as Secret K, who wrote "That Man," the soundtrack of SBS drama "Secret Garden" sung by Baek Ji-young and Hyun Bin.

"The follow-up song, 'It Girl,' tells of a girl directly expressing her affection toward a boy, which is quite opposite to the song, 'I Don't Know.' The second song's beat is faster than the previous one," said Son.

Son, Kim and Hong currently attend School of Performing Arts, Seoul.

"We had thought we would not be really liked by female students but a majority of fans saying hello to us on our way to school are actually girls," said Kim.

The alumni of Girl-school Jinmyung, Kim Mi Ja(56) and Yoon Mi Young(56) said "We met each other in the alumni party in 30 years. There are friends we cannot see so that we came to Star King. We have a friend that passed away because of cancer, before that time came, I wanted to meet friends I didn't meet"

This day, Miss A sang Nami's 'Like indian doll', B1A4 sang Song Gol Mae's 'A Chance Encounter', Mimi sang 'Weak mind' making us fell into the old memories.

On the other hand, Kim Mi Ja acted as Yoo Ho Jung in the movie, searching for her first love, Lee Nam Shik. Then, her first love, Lee Nam Shik, immediately phoned her. That surprised everyone.

"I put the stone into the bag and go on, thinking about the prospect and then I gave up" said Kim Mi Ja but Lee Nam Shik replied "That's never happened, That time Min ja's very clever and your voice was so attractive. Your boday was not so fat then"

"That's really good searching" Ahn Moon Suk admired and said to her first love "Wherever you are, please be happy" making everyone seizures.

[News] JYJ’s Representative States, “KBS’s Explanation Did Not Answer Our Questions At All”


A representative of Prain, the company in charge of JYJ’s PR, made a statement regarding KBS’s explanation as to why JYJ’s appearance on a KBS program was cancelled.

This representative stated, “KBS’s explanation did not answer a single question that JYJ’s representatives made,” and “What JYJ’s representatives called for was the reason why JYJ’s appearance was suddenly cancelled.” He continued to add, “We believe that JYJ, who were already promoting the cause as honorary ambassadors, could have appeared on the program as planned, regardless of Girls’ Generation and f(x)’s appearances. Other honorary ambassadors who were promised an appearance performed as planned, so we do not know why only JYJ were given a notification of cancellation.“

JYJ were scheduled to appear on the KBS special program ‘Challenge! 7 Natural Wonders of the World, This is Jeju’ as honorary ambassadors to the island’s nomination but were given a notification of cancellation by KBS four days before the performance. To this, JYJ’s representatives stated in an official statement that, “We have reported this case to the Fair Trade Commission and will carry out a lawsuit against the obstructions made against JYJ’s independent activities.”

On the 28th, KBS stated in their viewers’ thread that, “We received a call of confirmation from Girls’ Generation and f(x), who were on our list of celebrities to cast in the performance, saying that they would be able to perform,” and “As Girls’ Generation and f(x) have already spread out globally, even to Europe, we decided that their appearance would be more effective in promoting Jeju, which is in the running to be one of the 7 Natural Wonders of the World, to the world(broadcasting live to 72 countries through KBS World).”

The Prain representative stated, “We do not wish to cause a conflict with KBS because of this issue,” and “However, we will wait for the verdict from the Fair Trade Commission regarding this issue and we hope that such illogical events will not occur again in the future.”
