News bites: April 26, 2008
by javabeans
- Sung Yuri is set to appear in her first solo talk show appearance on SBS’s new The Star Show; the show concept is centered on deep conversation with “big stars.” Originally veteran actor Choi Min Soo was scheduled for the show’s second episode, but that was scrapped with his recent scandal for beating up a 70-year-old man. Episode airs May 5.
- Chae Rim admits to having her eyes done on a recent episode of Happy Together. She was also asked, somewhat uncomfortably, “Why don’t you get married?” (uncomfortably because of her public divorce). She broke the awkward mood and explained, “When I see others living with their husbands, I don’t really feel envious.”
- In the same episode, MC/funnyman Yoo Jae Suk revealed he’d gone to the same university as Chae Rim and Rivals co-star Lee Jong Hyuk, but he’d never graduated (he’d been working as a comedian and had to often leave to go to the broadcast station).
- In middle school, Kim Rae Won was always ranked (academically) in third place — from the rear. (He continued, “I quit playing basketball, shocked to hear my grades wouldn’t be good enough to continue to high school, so I started studying harder.”) He’s currently filming manhwa-based drama Gourmet.
- Epik High rapper Mithra Jin has a girlfriend (Tablo disclosed the fact when the group appeared on Love Letter on the 26th). Mithra said that although that’s true, they only have time to meet once every two or three weeks to confirm they’re still alive.
- Go Soo was released from military duty on April 25, and he sure looks happy. Welcome back, dude.
- …and goodbye to pop singer Eru, who took the stage to bid goodbye before beginning his military service next month (May 1), appearing on MBC’s Music Core on the 26th with new hit group Mighty Mouth. He performed, appropriately enough, the song “Last Concert.”

Surprisingly i liked the 'last concert' song by Eru ft Mc Mong, Brian and Mithra. Sometimes i wonder if eru is living his dream or keeping his dad's alive. He's got some talent though i have to admit.
I'm cringing at the Choi Min Soo incident right now. Sigh. But then again we don't really know if that old man had been a physco or not. And is it just me or does Sung Yuri look a bit old in the above photo?

“When I see others living with their husbands, I don’t really feel envious.”
Because she's 'been there' and 'done that.'

it says "The file you were looking for could not be found"
"Mithra said that although that’s true, they only have time to meet once every two or three weeks to confirm they’re still alive."

I knew it! My friend is now backtracking and saying that she never said that she didn't, but she totally did. I'm finding this quite annoying because she always thinks she's right, because I made a BIG deal about how much her eyes annoyed me, and she like.. no.. she looks totally fine in All about eve, and some tawainese drama she was in(before Dal Spring)

With the Epik High collaborations, I have to say, my favorite is by far the one done with K Will - Music is my Life. Tight lyrics and a rocking background trrack while being totally radio friendly.
