Anticipation has been rising for TVXQ member U-Know Yunho’s guest appearance in JTBC’s sitcom “Living in Cheongdam-dong.”

In the press conference held of “Living in Cheongdam-dong” on 25 November at 2pm, highlight videos of “Living in Cheongdam-dong” were revealed.

In this video, which included passionate acting from the “Nation’s Mother” Kim Hye Ja as well as Hyun Woo and Lee Sang Yup, U-Know Yunho made a sudden appearance, surprising those at the press conference.

In the sitcom, U-Know Yunho plays a Hallyu star who rents comic books without returning them, then goes into Kim Hye Ja’s comic book room without paying for the rental of space, resulting in his shaming that led to much laughter from the audience.

The director of “Living in Cheongdam-dong” said, “In the show, Kim Hye Ja runs a comic book room in Cheongdam-dong, and this is supposed to be a comic book room that is frequented by hallyu stars. In the future, more hallyu stars will be making surprise appearances, and I hope that you will look forward to it.”

NEWS KARA, TVXQ Nominated For Japan Record Awards

KARA – The Korea Herald

TVXQ – SM Entertainment

Tohosomnia.net writes:

K-pop groups KARA and TVXQ have been nominated for the top prize of the 53rd Japan Record Awards, while 2NE1 has been nominated for Best New Artist, the awards committee announced on Saturday.  

A major music awards show held annually in Japan, the Japan Record Awards is organized and hosted by the Japan Composer’s Association.
 
Ten acts have been nominated for the top award this year, including Nishino Kana, Mizumori Kaori, Hikawa Kiyoshi, and AKB48. KARA has been nominated for “Go Go Summer!” while TVXQ is being for “Why? (Keep Your Head Down)” All of the nominees automatically share the Best Song award, and the top prize winner will be announced on the day of the ceremony.
KARA debuted in Japan in 2010, and received the New Artist of the Year Award from the Japan Gold Disc Awards the same year. The group released two studio albums and five singles in Japan since their debut. Their third Japanese single, “Jet Coaster Love” topped the Oricon Weekly Singles Chart during its first week of release.
TVXQ, on the other hand, has topped the Oricon Weekly Singles Chart nine times since their Japanese debut in 2005. Initially a five-member group, TVXQ returned as a duo consisting of Yunho and Changmin in January, after the three original members ― Jae-joong, Yoochun, and Junsu ― left the group over a dispute about their 13-year contract with S.M. Entertainment back in 2009. After their return in January with a new Japanese single “Why (Keep Your Head Down),” the duo also released a Japanese studio album titled “TONE” in September. The full-length album sold more than 200,000 copies during its first week of release.  
Meanwhile, 2NE1, which just had a highly successful concert in Hanoi, Vietnam, on Saturday, has been nominated for the Best New Artist prize, along with three Japanese musicians ― Ito Miyu, Super Girls, and Fairies. Like the top prize nominees, the four Best New Artist prize nominees are automatically given a New Artist prize, with the Best New Artist winner honored on the awards night.
The girl group debuted in Japan in September with their mini-album “Nolza.” The album topped Japan’s Oricon chart the same week. They held their first Japanese concert, “1st Live Concert: Nolza in Japan” at Yokohama Arena on Sept. 19 and 20.
Last year, Girls’ Generation was nominated for the Best New Artist, and Big Bang was one of 10 artists to get a Best Song award, for “Tell Me Goodbye.”
The awards ceremony is scheduled to be broadcast live through Japan’s TBS at 6:30 p.m. on Dec. 30.

For the live performance, 「B.U.T(BE-AU-TY)」, 「Duet」, 「I Don’t Know」 were the numbers performed, that excited the crowd. Also, this time, the album version of  「Duet」 to be released in the single on 30 November was revealed for the first time, moving the participants to tears.  At the end, they announced that there will be additional performances for their nationwide tour that starts in January 2012.

[Trans] Tweets About Yunho and TVXQ Lacoste Photoshoot

 love all of them *^^* http://bit.ly/ujNQJo

 

@LACOSTE_KOREA Most of the people asked what movie we were in the midst of shooting! The atmosphere makes that possible isn’t it?

 @LACOSTE_KOREA Looking so cool like this, how can one not look at him ㅋㅋ

@LACOSTE_KOREA The cute high school students I knew from 10 years back is now nowhere to be seen and they’ve grown into handsome/cool men. Even New Yorkers who passed by stopped in their tracks and stared at them.

 @LACOSTE_KOREA Changmin-ee is always careful in every situation… he was absolutely a model. It’s the same when he’s walking down the street.

@LACOSTE_KOREA Is there a studio as large as this? This is the Brooklyn studio, where there is no disturbance whatsoever no matter where the photos are to be taken.

@LACOSTE_KOREA Yunho said that Brooklyn on a tranquil Sunday really makes his heart feel at ease.

@LACOSTE_KOREA This is a sketch of TVXQ’s photoshoot, which was carried on like a guerilla date.

Translation 111028 SM Singers To Appear in MAMA For The First Time In Three Years

[TRANS] 111028 SM Singers To Appear In MAMA For The First Time In 3 Years? “No Problem At All”

Posted on November 2, 2011

Many are curious to see if SM singers will appear in M.net’s awards ceremony MAMA for the first time in three years.

It has been found that M.net is optimistic about the possibility because SM singers have been appearing in M.net’s ‘M! Countdown’ as well as its other awards shows. As TVXQ, Super Junior, f(x) and Girls’ Generation have all been active this year, they will ‘most definitely’ be invited to the awards show and with SM deciding to make amends with M.net, there should be no problems with them accepting the invitations.

MAMA will be holding a press conference at the Sangam CGV on the 1st of next month, and it seems that the hottest topic of the day will be whether or not SM will be participating in the awards show. A representative stated, “Though we can’t yet reveal the official list of stars who will be attending, there’s nothing stopping SM singers from coming.”

 

The only hurdle is their schedules. All of the SM singers have packed schedules for the end of the year, and it will take time to move things around to accommodate to the awards show. TVXQ will be attending the ’2011 Billboard K-Pop Masters’ concert at the MGM Grand Hotel in Las Vegas on the 25th of November, so it might not be easy for them to appear at MAMA two days later. The other groups also have tight schedules, so they will need time before they confirm any appearances.

The singers of SM Entertainment have not appeared in MAMA (or MKMF as it was known in the past) since TVXQ won the ‘Album of the Year Award’ in 2008. When only the members of JYJ, who were in a lawsuit with SM, were invited in 2009 to receive an award on behalf of TVXQ, SM and M.net’s dispute exploded. Since then, SM’s choice on whether or not to appear in the awards show has been a hot issue every year.

MAMA will be held at the Singapore Indoor Stadium on the 29th of November.
