Han Chae Young on Allure :)


After starring in Boys Over Flowers as Jihoo's crush earlier this year, Han Chae Young has been out of the spotlight. However, the actress and model who is often regarded as Korea's Barbie, is back with a brand new photoshoot for Allure magazine!

You're probably wondering where in the world Han Chae Young was for the photoshoot since winter in Korea doesn't exactly look like that. If you're thinking Hawaii, you're right! She specifically flew to Hawaii to shoot on the island of Oahu and at the Hyatt Regency Waikiki Beach Resort.

The January issue of Allure includes the rest of the photoshoot and an interview from Korea's very own living Barbie.

Check out the photoshoot below:

2PM’s Nichkhun to begin filming “Shining Diploma”



Last month, it was revealed that 2PM's Thai cutie pie Nichkhun will be staring in the upcoming film "The Shining Diploma."

A representative from JYP Entertainment stated,
"Since he will star in the movie, this will give him an opportunity to showcase his hidden abilities and grow as an entertainer. Currently, he is quite busy with his promotional activities with the rest of 2PM, but since there is only one month left until shooting begins, he is also attending an acting class as well. We cannot wait to see his role as an actor!"


And we can't wait either! With the sweet Thai prince trading his good boy image for a more charismatic bad boy look, it's making the wait pretty unbearable, but I guess we're all in for a nice surprise! Nichkhun and the rest of the cast will begin filming for the movie around January 2010.

2PM ON MELON MUSIC AWARD



Dang, these boys just get better and better.

At the first annual Melon Music Awards, 2PM had a quick intro with the other songs from the album such as "Tired of Waiting" and "Give me the light."

Then, the fire started with the intro of "My Heart" with Taecyeon which then went into "Heartbeat" and "Again and Again". Although bad mics plagued the performance (poor Taecyeon not being to rap his only part), the boys put on a good performance. There was also a bit of a surprise at the end with a HOT dance break.

2PM was also on the Top 10 of 2009 list and gave a quick but short thank you to Jaebeom.

Stay tuned to allkpop for full coverage of the 2009 Melon Music Awards.
