TEEN TOP’s Niel and Ricky share a kiss on ‘TEEN TOP & 100%’s Rising Brothers’

On the January 4th episode of ‘TEEN TOP & 100%’s Rising Brothers‘, TEEN TOP‘s Niel and Rickyacted out a hilarious kiss scene.

Niel and Ricky demonstrated the level of touchy behavior they would initiate on a date by pretending to be boyfriend and girlfriend. Ricky perfectly pulled off his role as Niel’s pretend girlfriend by donning a bow pin and giving Niel a sweet message.

Having previously kissed fellow member Changjo during a game that involved moving paper with lips, Niel didn’t seem phased by Ricky’s actions at all and showed off his charisma by swooping in for a kiss on Ricky’s cheek.

Niel responded, “I don’t know how I came to kiss two guys, but I feel so irritated. If this is how it’s going to be, then I guess I have to go for a third one.”

INFINITE’s Sunggyu shares his love for rock music

INFINITE‘s Sunggyu shared his passion for rock music during the recent recording of ‘Yoon Do Hyun’s Must‘, and also surprised the audience with the name of his high school band.

The INFINITE member and soloist attended the recording, and was asked when he started to dream of becoming a rocker. To Yoon Do Hyun‘s question, Sunggyu revealed, “I grew up listening to rock music since I was little and when I was in high school, I started a school band,” impressing those in the audience who had not heard of Sunggyu’s past.

The singer then surprised everyone as he revealed the name of his school band to be “Coma Beat” as they had a hard time picturing the now-idol in a band with such a statement name.

Sunggyu also went on to perform his solo tracks “60 Sec” as well as “I Need You“, heating up the atmosphere as the audience fell into the trance of his stage presence.

Block B releases official position against Stardom Entertainment

• o

Block B has released an official position against Stardom Entertainment.

After the group announced their lawsuit against their label and Stardom Entertainment issued an official statement, Block B also revealed their stance through their law firm Shinwon.

The full report reads,

This is the official statement of the 7 members in response to Stardom Entertainment’s (Stardom below) statement on January 4th, 2013.

Firstly, we are very sorry to cause worry to all the fans who love and care for Block B from the start of the new year.

The Block B members took a long time thinking about their decision to nullify their contract and file for an injunction. However, they have come to their decision because of the many things that happened from the start of the contract with Stardom, which [caused them to decide that they] cannot trust Stardom anymore. We would like to let you know that the choice was unavoidable.

Stardom currently states that they have straightened out all the profit [issues] as if there was a mutual agreement about the balance distribution calculation, but this is false. The actual truth will all be revealed in court.

The explanation that Stardom gave about the previous CEO, Mr. Lee, is also false, and they are just trying to deny responsibility. Stardom has explicitly and implicitly agreed to use the title of CEO for Mr. Lee from the start.

On other matters, Stardom’s statement that the request to nullity the contract is because of dissatisfaction about appearing on television and because of a mastermind behind the other members is also completely different from the truth. It is nothing but them trying to derogate the members’ unavoidable decision after careful consideration.

We respectfully ask Stardom to stop making comments that mislead the media and the public.

We apologize once again about causing worry to the fans. The Block B members promise to respond to the fans’ love with a more mature side.

January 4th, 2013

Law firm Shinwon, legal representative of the 7 Block B members

Stay tuned on allkpop as more information comes up!
