Sohee denies asking Niel out + Andy apologizes for his comments


Yesterday when Shinhwa came out as a guest on MBC‘s ‘Radio Star‘, Andy confessed that TEEN TOP‘s Niel had been asked out by a JYP Entertainment girl group member ‘S’!

Of course, as soon as the episode aired, many viewers tried to guess who ‘S’ was, and most came to conclude it was Wonder Girls member Sohee because she’d once said TEEN TOP was her favorite group. However, Sohee denied all the accusations. When a fan asked her on Twitter, “Are you ‘S’?“, she answered shortly, “I am not-“. This denial was especially surprising since Sohee mostly uses her Twitter only to re-tweet other posts.

Andy also apologized for what he’d said through his own website, writing, “Hello, this is Andy. I’m sincerely sorry to everyone that was bothered because of me. I’ll be more careful on broadcast from now on. I’m Sorry.

On the side of the shoe box, Niel wrote a letter reading, “To Sungyeol hyung~!!!! Thanks for taking care of us and helping us while you promoted!!!!!!! Let’s keep working hard and promoting together-! Wear the ‘ART OF WOVEN’ well!! – Niel-“.

DMTN’s Daniel attends 2nd court hearing


DMTN‘s Daniel quietly attended his 2nd court hearing for the marijuana related charges.

The hearing took place in the morning of May 9 at the Seongnam Branch of Suwon District Court. As with the first hearing, Daniel apologized for his charges and attended the hearing with four people that were indicted along with his lawyer.

Bianca Mobley from ‘Global Talk ShowChat With Beauties‘ was not present for the second time, and instead her lawyer said, “We received a phone call from Bianca’s mother. Bianca is very sick, so she’ll definitely attend next month.” The court was not amused with her second absence, saying, “Lately, it looks like the court is looked down upon. We already gave Bianca one chance. This is not a hearing just for herself. If she does not appear next time, we will issue a warrant for her arrest and she’ll be placed on a wanted list.

The third hearing will take place on June 4 at 2PM at the same court.

JYPE say they have no comment regarding ‘S’ asking out TEEN TOP’s Niel


JYP Entertainment didn’t have much to say regarding the reveal of TEEN TOP‘s Niel being asked out by a JYPE girl group member with the initial ‘S’.

JYP Entertainment responded, “Although several names are being discussed, we will quietly let this pass over. Our position is that we have no comment.”

On the May 8th broadcast of ‘Radio Star‘, Shinhwa‘s Andy shocked fans by mentioning that Niel was asked out by a girl group member. Andy hinted on who it may be revealing, “I heard it was from JYP Entertainment, a girl group member ‘S’”, which led to a frenzy of netizens trying to find out which girl group member it could be.

Sohee has denied asking Niel out, while Andy apologized for his comments on the broadcast.

San-E denies being the ‘S’ that asked Niel out


In a hilarious turn of events, San-E got involved in Niel‘s ‘S’ incident.

Or rather, he included himself in the topic of conversation. Using his recent leave from JYP Entertainment and Andy‘s recent comments on ‘Radio Star‘ as the premise of his joke, San-E took to his Twitter to write, “I’m not the ‘S’ girl;;“.

Later on, he again wrote, “Niel is cool, but how can you say I was forced to leave because I asked Niel out……” Along with his post, he posted a photo of himself posing by a park sign that originally read ‘Gate Ball’. However, he’d purposely covered up the second part of the word, making the sign only read ‘Gay’.

As San-E is scheduled to return with his new single, “Big Boy on May 13, it’s a pretty clever way to promote himself.

INFINITE members to bare their abs for a taste of Korean beef on ‘Weekly Idol’


Korean beef is loved by many in Korea, and INFINITE is no exception!

While recently filming of MBC Every1‘s ’Weekly Idol‘, the boys were told that they would be able to eat delicious Korean beef but only if they had nice looking abs.

Hoya, Dongwoo, and Woohyun had no problems flipping their shirts up to reveal their washboard abs, but the rest of the members hesitated. At this, MC Jung Hyung Don said, “Even if you don’t have abs, we’ll give you a high score, so don’t worry“, coaxing the other members to reveal their bodies.

Sunggyu was quite hesitant on revealing his body, saying, “Should I reveal my body just for one piece of meat even though I’ve never done it for the past 4 years?“.

The boys’ ab-fest will air on May 8, at 6PM KST, so don’t miss it!

INFINITE’s Dongwoo suffers a sanitary problem on ‘Mamma Mia’


INFINITE‘s Dongwoo went through a slightly embarrassing episode during his appearance on KBS‘s ‘Mamma Mia‘.

On the latest episode of the family variety show, Dongwoo went on a simple spring outing with his mother. As he hadn’t seen her in a while, they both managed to have a good time by themselves.

However, their fun outing was cut short when, somewhere from Dongwoo’s nether regions, came a farting sound. Although his mother turned in surprise, exclaiming, “What sound is that?”, Dongwoo maintained his calm, simply replying, “It’s a fart”.

He then turned to the camera and apologized, saying, “I apologize.”

Don’t worry, Dongwoo – apology accepted. We’re not the ones that had to smell it!
