B1A4′s Japanese debut single ‘Beautiful Target’ ranks high on Oricon Chart


Popular idol group B1A4 is being met with an explosive response after releasing their first Japanese debut single, ‘Beautiful Target‘.

B1A4 made their official debut in Japan with ‘Beautiful Target’ on June 27th, and on the same day of release, the group ranked within the top 5 on the Oricon Chart with famous Japanese boy band KAT-TUN and Girls’ Generation. In addition, the boys have also stolen the top 3 spots on Tower Records‘ daily rankings, Japan’s largest music portal site.

A representative of their agency stated, “We’re surprised by the fact that B1A4 ranked within the top 5 on the Oricon Chart despite being a foreign rookie group, and a group that hasn’t begun promotions in Japan. Representatives in the music industry and fans are showing high interest in their next move.”
The B1A4 members also shared their thoughts: “We’re very happy to be able to debut in Japan. We’ll work harder to become a better group in order to receive much more love from fans.

Meanwhile, B1A4 will be heading over to Japan this weekend for a handshake event at the Tokyo Big Sight on June 30th. The group will then officially greet fans at their debut event, which is being held at the Lazona Kawasaki Plaza on July 1st.

이상민, '비틀즈코드2' 출연…인피니트와 평행이론 찾는다

[마이데일리 = 함상범 기자] 가수 겸 음반제작자 이상민이 케이블채널 엠넷 '비틀즈코드2'에 출연했다.

이상민은 지난 27일 룰라 채리나, 가수 이지혜, 그룹 인피니트와 함께 '비틀즈 코드2' 녹화를 진행했다.

'비틀즈코드2'는 서로 다른 시대에 같은 삶을 사는 두 사람이 존재한다는 평행이론을 바탕으로 게스트 간 평행이론의 근원을 찾아가는 콘셉트의 예능 프로그램. 이날에는 이상민, 채리나, 이지혜와 인피니트 사이의 평행이론을 찾았다.

또 한 이상민은 28일 자신의 트위터에 "비틀즈코드 녹화. 탁재훈형 비틀즈코드 MC 자리 '음악의 신' 이상민이 힘써줬다. 어떻게 힘써줬을까? 엠넷 '비틀즈코드'와 '음악의신'에서 공개합니다"라는 글과 함께 '비틀즈코드2' 녹화 현장 사진을 게재했다.

사진에는 이상민이 정면을 주시하고 있으며, 뒤로 탁재훈과 인피니트의 모습이 보인다.

이 와 관련 이상민 소속사 관계자는 마이데일리와 통화에서 "이상민이 그동안 채널 A '쇼킹'이나, tvN '백지연의 피플인사이드'처럼 다소 무거운 프로그램에 출연했는데, 이번에는 조금 가벼운 농담을 주고받을 수 있는 '비틀즈코드2'에 출연했다"고 밝혔다.

이어 "새로 MC로 합류하게 된 탁재훈씨도 같이 촬영했다. 다소 가벼운 농담이 이어지며 즐겁게 진행됐다"고 덧붙였다.

한편 이상민과 채리나, 이지혜와 인피니트의 평행이론을 알아보는 '비틀즈코드2'는 오는 7월 9일 밤 11시에 방송될 예정이다.

TEEN TOP’s Niel surprises viewers with his ‘sausage lips’ after a nap

TEEN TOP‘s Niel is receiving attention for proving to the viewers that his lips puff up after he wakes up from a sleep.

TEEN TOP members guest starred on the June 27th broadcast of ‘Weekly Idol‘ and revealed the truth about the rumor of Niel having sausage lips, that puff up after sleeping.

To measure the change in lip size before and after a nap, the producers of the show prepared bedding, and Niel actually took a nap during the show. After his nap, Niel shocked the people around him including MC Defcon, who couldn’t hide his surprise after seeing Niel’s lips really puff up. The above picture is a screen capture where it shows Niel’s lips before his nap on the left and his lips after his nap on the right.

Niel attracted laughter by also adding, “When I sleep after eating ramen, my eyes don’t swell up but my lips do.”

Viewers expressed their surprise of seeing Niel’s sausage lips by commenting,”It was funny to see Jung Hyung Don immediately handing over lipstick to preserve the swelling and Niel marking his lips right after he woke up“, “I was impressed to see Niel really asleep“, and “It’s amazing that not his eyes but his lips swell up.”

Meanwhile, TEEN TOP is currently promoting their title song “To You“.
