So Ji Sub is hooked on variety Posted by : dnanshmr

Actor So Ji Sub promises to return to ‘Infinity Challenge’!
On this week’s episode, MBC’s ‘Infinity Challenge’ continued with the second portion of last week’s ‘So Ji Sub Returns’.
As if getting his face covered with black ink was not enough, So Ji Sub was seen giving his all during the tube pumping competition wearing the show’s trademark white spandex bodysuit and gold cape.
Unlike his nickname, ‘So Gan Ji’ (‘So’ being his last name, ‘Gan Ji’ meaning charismatic in Japanese), So Ji Sub competed fiercely despite ruining his appearance, which made him even more appealing in the viewers’ eyes.

After losing the air pumping competition in a close race, So Ji Sub expressed his regret and his intention to return with the comment, “What a shame. Please call me back again”.
Yoo Jae Suk, receiving a pinky promise from So Ji Sub, quickly brought a close to the show with the statement, “Although this guy isn’t the type to say things he doesn’t mean, he could change his mind if we keep talking, so we need to end this quickly,” bringing laughter to the viewers.
Viewers commented, “It was nice watching him blend in well with the other members and enjoy himself without any aversion to the situation”, “Rather than looking like a mess, he shined even more”, and “Cha Seung Won, So Ji Sub, Jo In Sung special please!”

[Spoiler] ‘The Musical’ airs its first episode! Posted by : dnanshmr

On September 2nd, SBS’s new drama ‘The Musical‘ aired its first episode!
The episode introduces the story of ‘Go Eun Bi’ (played by Goo Hye Sun), an honest and hardworking medical student who’s completely in love with musicals. She claims that adding medical terminology into musical numbers makes it easier to memorize them; she also respects top musical actress Bae Kang Hee more than the nobel prize winner Albert Schweitzer.

Eun Bi takes a leave of absence from medical school behind her father’s back, and applies for multiple musical auditions but gets rejected by each one. However, Eun Bi is a girl who does not know how to give up.
Meanwhile, famous composer/musical director Hong Jae Yi (played by Daniel Choi) is a talented and handsome guy, but doesn’t always make a great first impression on people. He is very care-free, has a high level of aesthetic sensitivity, and basically does whatever he wants.
During the episode, Eun Bi and Jae Yi bump into each other several times by coincidence. When Jae Yi happens to hear Eun Bi singing by the Han River one day, he criticizes her singing with the comment, “Hey little lady, you really can’t sing. You’re not supposed to sorrowfully wail that song like that“, and reveals to her that he was the original composer of the song she was singing.
At this, Eun Bi just gives a short laugh and replies, “If you’re Hong Jae Yi, then I’m Bae Kang Hee!”, but Jae Yi leaves her with the warning, “Don’t even dream of becoming a musical actress if you have no talent“.
Fast forward a year later, and we can see that Eun Bi still hasn’t given up on her dream to become a musical actress. When the two characters happen to meet once again, Jae Yi ends up playing the piano for Eun Bi while she sings to his accompaniment, but this time he forms a smile on his face instead of criticizing her, hinting that the two may form an interesting relationship in the future.
Viewers praised Goo Hye Sun’s hidden singing talents and Daniel Choi’s portrayal of a cheerful yet tough character with comments such as, “They really good together“, “I’m looking forward to the acting“, and “‘The Musical’ is really entertaining!”

Baek Chung Gang leaves Kim Tae Won and Boohwal Entertainment Posted by : dnanshmr

Only yesterday, we reported that MBC’s ‘Birth of a Great Star‘ Season 1 winner, Baek Chung Gang, had dismissed rumors that he would be leaving his mentor Kim Tae Won and his agency, Boohwal Entertainment. But on the same day, Boohwal Entertainment had made an official announcement that Baek Chung Gang would be departing from their agency, causing confusion amongst netizens.
So you can imagine the shock netizens felt upon hearing the news that Baek Chung Gang has since then officially departed from his agency, when he had personally denied the rumors through his me2day the day before.
On September 2nd, Baek Chung Gang and Kim Tae Won both attended a ceremony held in Kyungki-Do, and shared their feelings about the issue.
Kim Tae Won stated, “I am a singer, not a businessman. My student has a chance to grow and develop in a bigger world and under better conditions, so as a teacher I believe that I should be happy for him and let him go.”
Baek Chung Gang also commented, “Although I am leaving my first agency, Kim Tae Won will always be my mentor and teacher.”

So what were the reasons behind Baek Chung Gang deciding to leave Kim Tae Won and Boohwal Entertainment?
Well, first and foremost, Baek Chung Gang wished to expand his career into China — something that Boohwal Entertainment could not easily help him prepare for, since the agency mainly focuses on managing the Boohwal band. Consequently, Baek Chung Gang concluded that it was better for him to join an agency with established ties in the Chinese market.
The second reason is that Baek Chung Gang’s chances of succeeding in the Chinese market are much higher than his chances of making it big in Korea. Korea is currently saturated with talented singers all vying to make it to the top, and so Baek Chung Gang felt it would be difficult for him to break into this market and display his own unique talents.
In China, however, the situation is different. To Korean immigrants living in China, Baek Chung Gang is a symbol of the Korean dream. The singer would have a much higher chance in China of leading a long and successful singing career.
After winning ‘Birth of a Great Star’, Baek Chung Gang currently holds the status of a star in China and is receiving much love from his Chinese fans, as proven by the hundreds of fans that gathered to greet him at his last fan signing event in Yanbian, China.
For the sake of his future singing career, Baek Chung Gang felt he needed to promote in countries outside of Korea, and therefore, leaving Kim Tae Won could be the right step towards preparing his future.
However, the singer disappointed many of his fans when he first denied the rumors, then acknowledged them as being true merely a day later. Baek Chung Gang is a unique figure who could help form a bridge between the cultures of Korea and Yanbian of China, so there is also a need for him to maintain a positive image within Korea.
