American soccer player Robert Findley dumps girls to TVXQ

The hallyu wave is spreading like wildfire... The last people that you would think to be on the Sports Illustrated website just made it!

Every month, the online magazine asks athletes questions in a section called "The Pop Culture Grid". Among the questions asked were things the athletes ate that morning, favorite reality show and another was whats their favorite breakup song. And for American soccer player Robert Findley, he liked to dump chicks to "Kiss the Baby Sky" by our favorite boys, Tohoshinki.

i find it funny, tho, since kiss the baby sky is a bright, happy song.

and stevie hoang made an english version of DBSK's "why did i fall in love with you". it's called "here we stand". check it out. i kept on hearing the japanese lyrics instead of the english ones throughout the song tho, cuz i'm just so used to it ^^"


and jaejoong and micky have finally released their single, colors ~melody and harmony~! they released the mv and it's so peaceful :D


and sakurako did a cover of it way before it was out. she did it as practice, so it's not as great as it could be, but i thought that it was really good. especially since she learned the lyrics from fancams. and there's eng trans, too! i didnt realize how uplifting and sweet it was until i read the lyrics :P


2,000 Mobilize at JYPE Building in a Silent Protest

On September 13th, Korean Hottests surrounded the JYP Entertainment building at Seoul GangNamGoo CheongDamDong under the occasion of a silent protest against 2PM Jaebeom's recent withdrawal from the 7-member group. 2,000 members from 64 of 2PM's websites rallied together for a total of 2 hours, waiting outside from 2PM (very clever) to 4PM with over 100 police officers present on stand-by.

Due to the large turn-out of fans causing a blockage in traffic, the initial time, which was set for four hours from 2PM until 6PM, was cut short. One of the fans’ representatives said, “We will have the fans go home and clean up the streets by 6PM.”

In particular, what caught people's attention the most was a poster that read "4 Years, 4 Days", which translates into:

Four years, the time it took to change him from Jay Park to Park JAEBEOM
Four days, the time it took to destroy his dream.
It was a simple, yet powerful message that the fans based their silent protest on.

They also made a clear statement that they would not "support a 2PM that has less than 7 members" and were spotted bearing fansigns that demanded the return of the fallen member.

"Jaebeom, come back"
"Jaebeom, are you watching?"
"PM 01:59", "7=1"
"We miss Jaebeom"
"I am looking for 2PM's leader Jaebeom"
"Give us our Jaebeom back"

One representative claimed:

Through this whole process, the company did not do anything to the team which they have trained. All the responsibilities were carried by Jaebeom. While the fans are hoping for official explanation and active solutions to the situation, JYP has looked away and fans are now angry at JYP. We are angry at what JYP showed us in this past week, and we are officially demanding JYP to return Jaebeom to 2PM.


This was the first collective action that was taken since Hottests from all over the world made their declaration of boycotting 2PM and all music released under JYP's name. There was a total of approximately 1,000 CDs that were piled outside the JYPE building that day.

The K-Hottests' protest demonstrated that silence is, in fact, golden, as they delivered a strong message to JYP Entertainment without any violence, words, or riots.

click the link, you've got to see the pictures. i didnt feel like saving them all and then having to post them on here to show you :P

actually, 2ONEDAY, 2PM AND 2AM's official international fanclub, has been doing alot of projects to support jay and try to help bring him back.

right now, they've got a project up to send a petition to JYPE for jay and a project called International Love for Jay where they're gonna make a video using pics of fans from all over the world with signs supporting jay and send it to the media (i'm guessing the korean media cuz they were talkin about how the korean HOTTESTS (their fan name) love our videos and stuff we've made for support.

right now, i havent had the chance to do either projects, but i'm hoping that i'll have time during the weekend ^^"
