BoA’s secret US debut plan

Boa_200801_popseoul

BoA has been secretly preparing her US debut album with Madonna’s producer Peter Rafelson since last year. Unlike Se7en, Rain and other K-pop singers who spend their time flaunting about their grand US debut without producing any results, BoA has been concentrating on producing her album and honing her English skills because she understands the difficulty of crossing over to another country. Finally, someone is approaching the “American Dream” in a more sensible way.

BoA’s US debut plans will be released in March and her US debut is scheduled for May.

Good luck BoA!

Seeya’s Kim Yeon Ji rushed to hospital during performance

With Nam Gyu Ri and Lee Bo Ram hogging the media spotlight, Seeya’s Kim Yeon Ji went unnoticed until news about her fainting broke out this morning. Kim Yeon Ji fainted during her performance and was quickly rushed to the hospital.

The cause of her condition is unknown at the moment, but her blood is getting tested so her managers can decide whether or not she can resume her promotional activities. Seeya’s money hungry managers must be stingy when it comes to sick days.

Kim Yeon Ji is currently resting at the comfort of her own house until her results are released. Feel better Kim Yeon Ji!

Jang Geun Suk thinks he’s cool

Baby faced Jang Geun Suk wants you to think that he’s cool, but a catchy tune and random shakes here and there aren’t enough to convince anybody. The boy should just stick to what he does best which is acting. Other acts such as his recent Mnet stunt as a drag and his latest CF as a pimp aren’t impressing anyone.

The song “Black Engine” was produced by hit master JYP and is used as a marketing song for a domestic cosmetic brand, Etude’s House.
