No More Original Members in Xing!

















People are starting to relax now over the Suju controversy, and when I mean people I am talking about E.L.F the Super Junior fan base. Now that Mr. SM has said that the new members of the Suju family are not going to be added to the original group, but will make up a new group called Super Junior M with new and old members. All the elves can now rejoice in happiness over their little bit of victory, but this situation could have been far worse.

Take a look at what is happening to Xing(Cross In The Genre) and what their fan base is going through…..that as if they have a fan base.


In recent days news of another member of Xing has left the group—Kevin the young, cute, and the English speaking member of the group has decided to leave the group and left a message to fans.



“For those who don’t know already, I am no longer a XING member.
I have decided to go my own direction to fulfill my dreams.
I’m very sorry but I am also thankful for all of the support and love you have given me along the way.
There are so many things I have learned and experienced.
I hope that you will be able to accept my decision.
I would like to think of this as a beginning rather than an end.
Remember that I will always try my best.
Thank You and I love you”~ ^^
This departure news of a member leaving is nothing new to this group, but Kevin was the last original member to leave the group.







On July 14, 2007 Marumir aka Kim Kimbum (not the SuJu Member; but the brother of SS501 member Kim Hyung Joon) left the group stating that “he wanted to pursue a different future for himself, as his aspirations had changed since joining Xing”-soompi












On December 6, 2007 another original member Cheon Hye Sung left the group, but with no statement from him or Xing Entertainment was ever given out.





















On January 12 a third original member Yume(Kim Young Kyung) decided to leave making a diary announcement to his fans. A lot of fans refused to believe that another member was leaving the group, but of course they came to find out that it was true.

While fans were waiting for confirmation of the news that Yume had indeed left the group fans were hit with the announcement on January 13 that Poppin’ Dragon (one of the replacing members after Marumir departures) was also leaving the group.

History of Xing

In December 2006 Xing was formed and labeled as a capella quartet and consisted of a four member group.

Kevin
Yume
Marumir (brother of SS501 member Kim Hyung Joon)
Cheon Hye Sung

They released their first single in December 13, 2006 which was a soft ballad. After the release of their first single it was announced that two more members would be added– Poppin’ Dragon and Zen (as secret weapons *rolling eyes in head*) but were not officially added as members. With the new additions of members the road to stardom for Xing seemed like it wasn’t working, especially since the group didn’t participate in any major music programs. Xing Entertainment promoted their group also named Xing by releasing singles and MVs, doing photo shoots for magazines and held a concert that the Xing Entertainment produced them selves. This left fans filling less than satisfied because they couldn’t see their favorite boy band whom they felt had talent, but was not being marketed like other entertainment companies where promoting their stars.

Fans weren’t the only ones dissatisfied with that kind of arrangement that in July 14, 2007 Marumir left the group stating “he wanted to pursue a different future for himself, as his aspirations had changed since joining Xing”-soompi. Many fans were very upset of the news of his departure, and many wonder if Xing would go on since many felt that their popularity was mostly due to the fact that Marumir is the younger brother of SS501 member Kim Hyung Joon.

With the departure of Marumir, Poppin’ Dragon and Zen where than added as official members of the group. Xing Entertainment started than to promote Xing as a five member group and released the second single “My Girl”.

KARA Lost a MEmbeR!!!




what happens when you are a singer and fail the college entrance exam??
Some will be sent to NYC for a vacation, some will be forced by their father to quit the singing career entirely and sit at home study for the whole year for the next year exam!

Unfortunately, the latter is the Kara member Kim Sung Hee current status! *total outch*
Our heart goes to her and all the Kara fans who have been anxiously waiting for the group album and their comback for the past six months!

Meanwhile, DPS speakers announced that they will launch an audition through MNet in March to find 2 new members for Sung Hee’s replacement! *why two?*
As what happens to the all the recorded songs already? …
well there seems to be a word for a mini album released in April as well!

Super Junior H - Cooking? Cooking! [Mini-Album]


Super Junior H - Cooking? Cooking! Mini Album

  1. Cooking? Cooking!
  2. Pajama Party
  3. You & I
  4. Sunny
  5. Good Luck!!

It’s rubbish. Another bloody SuJu sub-group. The original and SJ-M are enough for me. The only reason another sub-group has been made, is probably money because the boys have been inactive for ages because some of their counterparts are too busy with SJ-M. Don’t ask me to re-up, this has already been deleted off my computer. But if there will be an MV, I’ll upload that.

Big Bang Seung Ri loves TVXQ Xiah Junsu



When Seung Ri of Big Bang was spotted at a trans gender strip show, I knew something was off. In a recent interview however, Seung Ri provided even more evidence, which put him one step closer to coming out of the closet.


Seung Ri's road to homosexuality:

  • Seung Ri visits a trans gender bar, searches his soul and discovers himself

  • Seung Ri states that he loves TVXQ, especially Xiah Junsu

  • Seung Ri states that he admires Junsu and hopes to be able to share a meal with him.

  • Seung Ri states that he is a member of Junsu's fan club.

  • Seung Ri states that he purchased the TVXQ CD - he feels very touched when he listens to it.

  • Xiah Junsu states that he met Big Bang, Seung Ri was over joyed, wouldn't let go of Junsu's hand and said that he "really admires him."



It's understandable for Seung Ri to admire TVXQ and Junsu, TVXQ is talented, unlike him and his Big Bang groupies. But Seung Ri's gestures are definitely crossing the line. It's only a matter of time until shy little Seung Ri comes out of the closet and sends thousands of fan girls home, in tears.

On the straighter side, Junsu stated that he likes Big Bang's song Lies, and was impressed that G-Dragon had composed it himself. Unfortunately, Junsu was mis-informed, as G-Dragon is a plagiarizer.

DBSK / TVXQ Micky Says NO to Fans





















TVXQ / DBSK member Micky Yoochun celebrated his 23rd birthday with fans on the 7th at the Seoul Jamsil Olympic Stadium.

Although Micky's birthday was on the 4th, he celebrated it on the 7th due to a concert in Japan. The fans presented Micky with lots of expensive gifts, however he turned them all down.

An SM Entertainment Representative stated, "The majority of fans are very young, and they purchased gifts that were way too expensive, that's probably the reason why Micky turned them down." The SM Entertainment Representative continued, "Instead of purchasing such expensive gifts though, the greatest gift fans can give the TVXQ members, would be listening to and supporting TVXQ's new album, which is planned for release in August."

At least DBSK cares about their fans and their treasures (gifts) unlike F.T. Island. But I also can see why F.T. Island trashed their hotel room. I mean their fans gave them pretty crappy gifts - WOW, thanks for the crayons & magic markers... what awesome treasures. While Cassiopeia members go the extra mile and buy gifts that are actually worth keeping.

TVXQ Xiah Junsu and SNSD (Girls' Generation) Tae Yeon




TVXQ Xiah Junsu and SNSD (Girls' Generation) Tae Yeon are hooking up, or so the fans are saying, after their Hollywood Bowl 2008 performances in California. Netizens are already making accusations that the two are hooking up secretly, due to a slight touch of the hand. Rabid fan girls and crazy fan boys all over the world, are distraught with the slightest thought of this couple in development. It's not unnatural to be sleeping with each other, especially when there's easy access to a bunch of good looking girls. Regardless, netizens as usual, are making a big deal out of nothing. We can still derive two things out of this story though: 1. It doesn't matter which continent you are on, crazy Korean fan girls are everywhere, like a bunch of cockroaches who need RAID.
2. If they are really hooking up, Xiah has terrible taste, at least go for the hotter ones, like Yuri or Jessica - unless his goal is to produce some super singing baby to enslave under SM Entertainment.

Girls’ Generation Apologizes to Fans



Girls' Generation aka SNSD recently put up an apologetic message to the fans on their official homepage. This coming shortly after all the drama that happened at the Dream Concert which was more of a nightmare for SNSD.

Here is a rough translation of the letter:
To all our fans who love us:

Hello fans, this message is from Girls' Generation:

This will be the first time for us to put a message on our website, and we should've had it up sooner. Ever since our debut and for the past 10 months, we have been receiving a lot of support from our fans. We are enjoying our current success because of you. We've shared a lot of good memories that we can reminisce on. From our debut performance that we waited all our lives for. The first meeting with fans after our debut performance. When we reached our first #1 ranking, where we cried. Our "rookie artist award", which was one of our goals we wanted to attain when we were just trainees. Into the new world, Kissing You, and Baby Baby. Despite all the hard work and hectic schedules, we were all happy.

We are grateful and would like to thank all our fans for all the happy memories you have provided us. The past 10 months were full of great memories. Unfortunately, there are also some memories that we regret. We are saddened, these regretful events was a learning experience for us and we've matured from it. Some of the regrets were our lack of proper respect, our inappropriate comments that have hurt people. We apologize to all those whom we offended, in the future we will be more aware of our behavior.

We thank everyone who were with us always. Those who loved, cared, and trusted in us. We cannot thank you enough, it was heartwarming to see all our fans who would wave the pink balloons no matter where we went. The only thing we can give in return is to work harder and sing with all our passion.

We are planning to show you the improved SNSD. We continue to train hard and improve ourselves.

Be good, and stay healthy.




I don't understand why they're apologizing in the first place. Korean celebrities need to grow some balls, although Hyo yeon already has a pair. Next time, they should tell the anti-fans to shove it up where the sun don't shine. But I'll gladly shove mine up where the sun don't shine for these girls, except Hyo Yeon, SeoHyun (Chris Hansen alert), and also the one ugly girl who's related to Lee Soo Man (whatever the hell her name is).

TOHOSHINKI THANKS BoA and H.O.T




During Tohoshinki's (a.k.a. DBSK) Tohoshinki 3rd LIVE TOUR 2008 ~T~, the boys took time to thank the hard work of their seniors, Kwon BoA and H.O.T.. These fellow SM Entertainment artists opened the eyes of other Asian countries and generated interest in Korean entertainment. On top of their hard work in their homeland, BoA and Tohoshinki worked hard in Japan as well, growing a larger fan base.

At Saitama Arena on May 5th, fellow AnyBand mate, Xiah Junsu praised BoA and said, “BoA was the first in Japan to make it big. We thank her because we wouldn’t be here or have our career in Japan if it wasn’t for her hard work. We know we’re not the best, but we work hard in her foot steps and the door she’s opened up for other Korean artists. We will continue to work hard for other things in the future”.

Shim Changmin also stated that they are definitely not the ones who paved the way for other Korean artists, “It wouldn’t be right to say we were the first. Our seniors, H.O.T. and BoA are the first and we’re just following their hard work. However, we also want to be role models for other Korean artists coming to Japan.”
