Kim Bum Faints On Set

Actor Kim Bum, who is currently filming the SBS drama Dream, recently fainted on set when the cast and crew were at Ilsan’s Hosu Gongwon (Lake Park). His fellow cast member from Boys Over Flowers, Kim Hyun Joong had a similar occurrence back in March. But don't be too alarmed because after resting for a little while, he appeared to be alright. All he needed was some time to breathe and maybe a little lovin' from co-star Son Dam Bi.

According to Kim Bum's manager, the rigor of the filming schedule caused Kim Bum to be both physically and mentally fatigued. On August 8th, he filmed late into the night; the poor boy didn't get any rest the following day either, as he had to film for hours in the scorching heat.

"But after some rest, he continued filming, and there is nothing wrong with his health now," his manager said.

Hopefully, the Boys Over Flowers cutie pie will look out for his health more and not get too overworked. Because if anything serious happens to him, the drama's producers will have to answer to some very upset fangirls. Thanks to Bumsso for the translation.

For the ending of episode 6 of Mnet 2NE1TV, GDragon was seen wearing a tee shirt with a picture of a naked woman printed on it.
And because of that for the 7th episode of the show aired on 12th August, the picture on GDragon’s teeshirt was blurred. But it still cannot avoid the sharp eyes of the viewers.

Earlier, GDragon was also criticised for his outspoken fashion, with last years’ ‘Mnet 20’s Choice’ he was spotted wearing a top with the words ‘69′ and ‘I ♡ sex’ written on it and had caused an outrage because of it.
With that there were many debates about it, and it was said that GDragon has gone against the broadcast regulations by wearing a top with lascivious contents, he then later came out to apologise in an interview in November last year.

Meanwhile, GDragon was also said to have plagiarised Flo Rida’s song ‘Right Round’ for his first solo album title song ‘HeartBreaker’ after a 30s preview of the song was revealed on 11th August.



The media is trying to squeeze dry of any reportworthy out of GDragon recently…
Bad publicity is still publicity?

T-ara barred from using mobile phones



With the Korean music industry still reeling from the TVXQ vs SM Entertainment lawsuit, there was news today that new girl group, T-ara have been barred from using their own mobile phones by their company recently.

T-ara expressed on the 10th, "After discussions with our company (Mnet Media), we have voluntarily handed in our mobile phones to them. If there's any urgent matter, we will borrow our manager's mobile phone." With mobile phones very much an essential part of a young girl's lifestyle, is the management company going too far with this action?

With regards to this, their manager said, "Not just their mobile phones, we are also restricting their time on the internet. We felt that malicious postings against them on the internet will affect their daily training." He added, "More than 80% of the comments posted by netizens are hateful remarks towards individual members. These hateful remarks does nothing useful, and will just make them feel depressed, etc. So we decided on this after consultation with all the members and got their consent."

Weeks before their debut, T-ara would hand over their mobile phones when they wake up at 6am. It will then be returned to them once training is over at night. But the company felt that text messaging by the members were affecting their sleep time, so they decided to raise the bar and take away their mobile phones for a period of time instead.
 
Their manager ended by saying, "This is nothing new. Others like Lee Seung Gi and F.T Island also didn't have mobile phones when they just debuted. Not just Tara, it's the same with many idol groups. There are of course some instances where certain members would secretly use their mobile phone without the company's notice. This is where I and the innocent members would start "hunting" them down."
