This Autumn in Kpop, we see the trend of many Kpop singers going with the ‘autumn leaf’ hair colour trend.

For example, the fashion was spotted on Big Bang GDragon, BEAST Jang HyunSeung and Yang YoSeob, FT Island Lee HongKi, GaryGoldSmith’s Smith and HwanHee etc.

It seems that the trend of hair dying, which surfaced in the 1990s when idols like HOT and Sechskies were sporting the style, has been revived again.

The reason for the hair dying craze only after 10 years – why?

A music industry expert said, “Back then during the 90s when the idol culture was growing rapidly, the dying of the hair was a sign of defiance and deviance. But now it has become a fashion style.”

And also recently sporting the trend: FTI JongHoon and SHINee JongHyun

FT Island Choi JongHoon has recently further blown up criticisms against him on his minihompy.
He referred to the incident between him and KARA Park GyuRi on MBC ‘SaeBaGwi’ aired on 17th October. On the show, Choi JongHoon was introduced as the “pretty boy acknowledged by all” and then the MCs said, “This is the concept similar to that of Park Gyuri. What do you think about Park GyuRi?”
With that he faced Park GyuRi and said, “That person’s personality is a little frivolous, my personality is that I’m honest and straightforward.”

Guess what happens next.

Netizens then broke into hot debate saying, “No matter what, she is 2 years his senior, such a comment is a little too inappropriate”, “Such words said on broadcast is a little too much, like he did not think through what he said at all” etc.
With netizens’ criticism, Choi JongHoon wrote an apology on his minihompy on 18th October.


In his apology, he wrote,
"Hmm, first off as an entertainer, I’m really sorry
This is a mistake because I was so too timid
And that’s why all the little talks came up
That day after recording, I apologised to that person
That was the concept for filming that day, and I was too much? Because such a thinking
Haha anyway getting concerned over such small matters is really funny!
Really sorry!!!!~ I will take the scolding as concern!
- RingDingDong"
With that, netizens refuted, “What kind of apology is that? He really has no sincerity”, “And he writes off as RingDingDong in his apology… I see he has not reflect on himself enough yet” etc.
Some KARA fans have actually posted up comments on JongHoon’s minihompy and the apology note was taken down.

Just like the title “Men’s Stories”, are you preparing a sensational show for us?

Jaejin: We’re in the midst of preparations now. It’s a secret so we cannot reveal anything yet. We’re also preparing for a big event for the first time.

As what we’ve heard, is it through that all of you are attending actor school?

Minhwan: It’s a secret. How did the rumour came out?

Jaejin: (looking puzzled) Who told you? Actually, we are attending actor school. We want to do a manly performance, so we’re working hard and of course, putting our words into action. We really want to show the manly sides of us, which we have not done it so far.

Wouldn’t it be interesting if all the members exchange their positions in the band and perform?

Minhwan: We really want to give it a try. I watched the Japanese band L’arc-en-ciel’s performance some time back, it was really cool.

Jonghoon: Which instrument would you like to play?

Minhwan: Guitar.

Jaejin: Well, for me, just tell me what to do and I’ll do it. (laughs) We have actually been practising playing other instruments, it’s just that we didn’t have the chance. Minhwan can play the guitar well, Seunghyun is also (turns his head to look at Seunghyun) good in doing many other things. Jonghoon has the feel of a vocalist. (looks at Jonghoon) Why don’t you show us?

Jonghoon: (at a loss) We’ll just leave it like this now. I’ll show it at the concert. (laughs)

Please don’t be like that. Show us something please.

Jaejin: (looks at Jonghoon and laughs) You’re caught!

Jonghoon: (completely at a loss, and rejecting using hand gestures) It’s not like that. Really cannot.

Jaejin paused for a while when talking about Seunghyun’s playing skills, is it because he joined the band later and lack of practice?

Minhwan: It’s definitely not like that. Seunghyun’s concept was originally like this. A concept whereby the members got to keep up with him. (laughs)

Jaejin: That’s right. In fact, Seunghyun is a friend who can rap well and has outstanding abilities.

So, will we be able to see solo stages at the concert?

Jaejin: Well, since we have already prepared something special…

Minhwan: Actually, there won’t be any solo stages. We are preparing a special stage though.

Have you all been practising other things to bring out members’ individual charm then?

Jaejin: I am doing lots of singing practice for this concert. Besides Hongki and Seunghyun, I am also working hard in singing. I’m thinking of singing for our fans at the concert.

Minhwan: I’m doing some liaising to introduce a some new faces to our fans. It’s a new group. They are also our friends.

Jonghoon: Is it a female group?

Minhwan: No. A male group.

Jonghoon: Aish, then I’m not interested. (laughs)

Seunghyun: It’s my first concert stage in Korea, so I’m practising a lot. I’m also doing lots of preparations so as to show the best side of myself at the concert.

Jonghoon: Since the concert title is “Men’s Stories”, we want to show some manly and charismatic sides of ourselves. We’re also thinking of exposing ourselves, if the fans want.

So now we have a preview of the members exposing themselves at the concert. All of you must have been doing lots of exercise.

Minhwan: We have a lot of fitness equipment in our dorm. Sometimes if we are bored, we’ll spend time doing exercise. But, in fact, we do not exercise regularly due to our busy schedules.

Hongki couldn’t join us today due to his busy drama filming schedule as well.
Since he’s not around, is there anything you would like to say?

Minhwan: Hongki-hyung started exercising when his drama filming started. Hmm.. How should I say? He was over-doing it. Even when he’s walking, he exerts strength in his arms and walk…, and when he’s exercising, he lets out groaning sounds. I hope he doesn’t do that.(laughs) I’ll get goosebumps.

Jonghoon: Sometimes, even in dramas, he walks with stiff arms. We’re embarrassed of that, Hongki.

Seunghyun: I’ll do a video letter for him.
Dear Hongki-hyung, let’s share clothes. Since we are members living under one roof, there will be times when I wear your clothes by mistake. There isn’t a need to say “take it off”, right? There are people around so please say it nicely to me. Don’t get angry when you see this video and I hope you will protect me with your love. Hongki-hyung, I love you.

Leave a concert invitation message to your fans as an ending.

All: Ok! FT Island’s concert will be held at Jangchung Gymnasium on 14th and 15th November. We have prepared many things and it’s also few days right after Minhwan’s birthday, so we hope many people will come. Hongki, who is not here with us right now, is also practising hard, so do come and enjoy. Until now, it’s FT Island.

FT Island becomes ambassadors for Gangwon-Do Province.

Lee Hongki and Song Seunghyun, members of FT Island who gained lots of popularity in Korea and Japan, were at Gangwon-Do recently for a photoshoot to promote the province to Japanese tourists.

The two members introduced Gangwon-Do by experiencing the place themselves. They went to Kyungpo Beach, Chamsori Museum, rode on rail bikes as well as the beach train at Jungdong-jin, East Sea. The series of photoshoot by famous Japanese photographer, Shimokoshi Haruki, portrays the beauty and charm of Gangwon-Do.

Lee Hongki said that, “Having the duty of promoting Korea overseas, we hope that many tourists will come and visit Gangwon-Do.”

Gangwon-Do’s official homepage featuring “FT Island Treasure Hunt Tour, Go! Go! Gangwon-Do” will open on 19th October.

This is a joint project by KNTO, Gangwon-Do and Gangwon-Do Tourism Association.

Oh Wonbin, former member of FT Island, will be participating in one of the tracks of “You’re Beautiful” OST, titled “Coming Down From The Sky“. It was said that Oh Wonbin volunteered to sing for the OST in support of his ex-fellow band mate, Lee Hongki.

There are many assumptions when this news was released. With earlier reasons saying that Oh Wonbin left the group due to disharmony between the members and him being singled out, his participation in the OST this time is creating lots of speculation.

Some netizens are making assumptions that, “Could it be that Oh Wonbin is returning to FT Island?” and “Is Oh Wonbin doing projects with FT Island or with the individual members?” Some also said that, if it is true that there is disharmony between the members, then it would be difficult for Oh Wonbin to participate in the OST to support Lee Hongki.

FT Island’s management company said that, “As what was already mentioned earlier, Oh Wonbin left the band due to differences in music. Though Oh Wonbin has already left the group, their friendship is still strong.”

Meanwhile, songs from “You’re Beautiful” OST will be revealed on MNet.com and other major online music sites on 14th. The physical album will also be released on the same day.

Song by Oh Wonbin and Miss $, titled “Coming Down From The Sky“, has a cheerful and bright melody with sweet lyrics.

The OST is also receiving lots of love with songs such as “Still” and “Promise” having both A.N.JELL and Lee Hongki’s versions. Park Shinhye’s solo is also included in the OST.

The third episode of “You’re Beautiful” will air tonight at 10pm.

Lee Hongki laughed as he revealed that, “FT Island members cringed after watching the drama”.

At the filming set of SBS Wed-Thu drama “You’re Beautiful” on 13th afternoon, Lee Hongki said that, “I watched the first episode of the drama with our members. I was looking forward to it while feeling nervous at the same time. They read the script in advance so they’re anticipating it as well.”

He added that, “All of us cringed while watching the drama together. Though I couldn’t watch the second episode together with them due to filming, they text me saying ‘It’s really interesting and we’ve gotten used to all the cheesy scenes (smiles)’.”

“Actually I don’t have an idol image at all. I’m more of a happy-go-lucky person. 70% of Jeremy’s character is like my usual self. Though Jeremy is an idol in the drama, he shows his cheerful and crazy sides very often as well. I’m also like that in reality. I don’t feel the burden even if I were to film a salivating scene.”

Lee Hongki plays the role of Jeremy, member of the nation’s most popular band “A.N.JELL“, who has a cheerful and bright character.

FT Island's Lee Hongki was joined by his fellow cast on the upcoming SBS drama "You're Beautiful" performing MV parodies of SNSD / Girls' Generation's "Tell Me Your Wish / Genie" as well as parodies of other hit-songs.

"You're Beautiful" has prepared a total of 7 MV's in all, which were filmed through 6 days and nights. The parody music videos will be used as a epilogue, being shown after the ending of each episode of "You're Beautiful," right before the preview scenes for the next episode. Here is the list of parodies they'll be performing: Seo Taiji and the Boy's "I Know", Roo'Ra's "Angel Who Lost A Wing", HOT's "Candy", DJ.DOC's "Run To You", Crying Nut's "Let's Ride A Horse", Fin.K.L's "Forever Love", and of course SNSD's "Tell Me Your Wish."

Park Shin Hye, Jang Geun Suk, Lee Hongki, Jung Yong Hwa, Bae Geu Rin, and Choi Soo Eun have all practiced the choreography hard and they will show off their dancing skills, as well as showcase different hairstyles for each MV. Lee Hongki, who will take SNSD Jessica's role in "Tell Me Your Wish", commented, "I started preparing before the filming of MV by looking at some of the videos." But that's not all... he'll be wearing skinny pants and 7cm high heels!

The leader of the People choreography team, Kim Jin Won, complimented them, saying, "They learned the choreography while also improvising it. They learned quite fast so I was able to teach them while also enjoying it myself."

SNSD's Tiffany is said to have sent a encouraging video message to the team, saying, "I was surprised because both Lee Hongki, who turned into ice princess Jessica, and Jang Geun Suk, who turned into Yuna was really pretty." "I am looking forward to the drama when it starts."

It will be curious to see which of the premiering drama's: SBS's "You're Beautiful," (premieres October 7th) KBS 2TV's "Iris" (premieres October 14th), and MBC's "Hero" (premieres November 18th) wins the competition, as they will all be going head-to-head as Wed-Thurs dramas.

Adding these little touches will surely bring more enjoyment to the viewers. I can't wait to see Lee Hongki and Jang Geun Suk, dressing into a SNSD! My list of "why-I-must-see-this-drama" just increased!
