Eric – went to the army

Ah just 2 pics. Didnt download a lot coz Im not using my personal laptop. :/ laptop is not working properly…

I believe he’s the first Shinhwa member to enlist…besides him, I know Kim Dong Wan is next but who else ah? >< forgotten…

 

Eric (of Shinhwa) and Wheesung to participate in Hyo Ri’s 3rd album

Actually, the title of this article that I translated is different from this post’s title . I don’t listen to her album but reading about Eric and (my fav) Wheesung’s involvement made me want to listen to those songs.

 

Shinhwa celebrate 10th anni with MV

I have yet to resume my MV download therefore been out of date already with a lot of new MVs.

This MV will probably be their last MV before 2 of them heads to the army. The location of the MV really sounds, ehm, uninteresting… dinosaur fossil site ?! errr…I hope they didn’t destroy any potential treasure there, LOL.

Another news was I saw Eric’s Que Sera Sera drama on sale (DVD) last week. It’s just that I ran out of budget to buy the DVD (coz I bought Dalja Spring ).  I do want to buy this drama so maybe next time.

 

Shinhwa to hold concert to mark 10th anni

Well…the last concert before 3 of the members go to the army. I’vebeen hearing quite a number of news from these guys lately – Andy solo album, Min Woo album, etc. It’s like they are rushing to finish as many work as possible before the army date

Oh…the extra info from the Japanese news source are

• Concert dates will be on 29th and 30th March
• Location is Seoul Olympic Park

News #1 Shinhwa Holds 10th Anniversary Concert

 

Shinhwa Pics for their 10th Anniversary

Ehm, I think it’s for their anniversary picture book. Even though I’m not a fan of their songs, I really do like to look at their pics as I always felt the warmth & closeness of their friendship in their pictures.

Korean artists who will be going to the army in 2008

Next year will be the “golden” year of artists in the army. O_O Here’s a list of who will be joining the barracks soon. If you know any that’s not on the list, let me know -__-
These are all the artists who have received the notice but they never said the final date when they are going so I’m assuming (since now it’s year-end already) that they will go sometime in 2008.

Looking at the list below, so sad that I like a LOT of them :/ (see my emoticon)
Actor

• Chun Jung Myung – confirmed to go on first week of Jan 2008 …
• Gong Yoo – confirmed to go on 14th Jan 2008
• Jo Hyun Jae – said will go after latest drama, G.P501, ends…
• Jo In Sung – he’s going end of 2007…
• Kim Rae Won
• Lee Dong Gun
• Lee Dong Wook – after his latest movie… x 10
• Yang Dong Gun – he’s a singer-actor actually….

Singer

• ERU – confirmed by agency -most probable date is 2nd half of 2008 (
• Eric Mun (of Shinhwa) – haven’t receive but people are assuming…
• Jang Woo Hyuk – before June 2008…
• Kangta
• Kim Dong Wan (of Shinhwa) – the only one who actually received the notice…
• Kim Jong Min (of Koyotae) – before March 2008…
• Lee Min Woo (of Shinhwa) – same with Eric…
• Sung Si Kyung – most probably in March 2008 ?
• Tei – he said he will go after his Vol 4 album promotion ends…
• Tony An
• Wheesung – same with Tei, said will probably go after Vol 5 album promotion ends… x 100!!

Shinhwa 10th Anni to release MV collection DVD

oooooh O_O this sounds tempting (for me to buy!) coz I like to collect MV. Even though I do have some of their MVs and I don’t actually listen to their songs

But this cover of this DVD is nice – the pic actually tells you how close they are – by reading their facial expressions – their laughs are very genuine and not “forced”.

 

Gucci fashion event pics…

After the music event pics, we now have another event… we have Lee Dong Wook, Eric, Lee Jin Wook, Jae Hee, Kim Ah Joong, etc.

LDW looked a bit sleepy (maybe the eyes) – I don’t like his long hairstyle – wish he would cut his hair :/ . Eric, as always, looks kakkoii.

Note: Please do not hotlink pics

^ the always cool Eric

 

Sina.Cn’s spotlight article on 15 Korean MVs

Sina.CN did an article on 15 Korean MVs that they deemed have good enough storyline.

The full article is here. They have put up a description of the plot, actors, singer of each MV. I will not translate each 15 sub-articles that they have written (that will be taking too much for me – I’m not very good with simplified Chinese!) but I will list down all the 15 MVs information and my comments (if I remembered the MV). I have all of the 15 MVs mentioned except Kangta’s MV Yoo Young Jin’s MV and if any of you wants it, just leave a comment (plus a reason why). I may consider the comments (and reasons) then decide if I want to put it in my MV queue.

Now, what they have chosen doesn’t mean it is the best MV for each artist. Artists like SG Wannabe, Lee Soo Young, Jo Sung Mo, Kim Bum Soo, to name a few have so many excellent MVs that they all can be considered as classic Korean MVs.

As for Kangta You Young Jin MV, I don’t think I heard of the name of the MV. After doing a search on my collection, don’t think I have it.
