Big Bang & DBSK releasing albums in Korea

Korea's top two boy bands, Big Bang and DBSK are releasing their Japanese albums in Korea.

Big Bang released their Japanese album "With U" simultaneously in both Japan and Korea. This is Big Bang's second foray into the Japanese Market after they released "For the World" back in January. The album consists of 8 tracks in total, G. Dragon worked with fellow YG Entertainment members Perry and Teddy of 1Tym on the album. Big Bang did have a successful concert in March where more than 10,000 fans attended at the Tokyo JCB Hall. However, they didn't have too much success on the Japanese charts unlike their counterparts DBSK.

DBSK / TVXQ is releasing “Beautiful You / Millennium Love Song,” their 22nd Japanese single album in Korea today. Unlike Big Bang, DBSK / Tohoshinki found a lot of success on the Oricon charts. They achieved the top spots on both the Oricon daily single chart and Oricon weekly chart. They're only the second non-japanese artist(s) to hold the spot twice on Oricon’s weekly chart. This was achieved only once before, more than 24 years ago. DBSK also plans to put on a good show for the Korean fans next week (June 7th) for the Dream Concert.

TVXQ Xiah Junsu & SNSD TaeYeon are Hooking Up

TVXQ Xiah Junsu and SNSD (Girl's Generation) TaeYeon are hooking up, or so the fans are saying after their Hollywood Bowl 2008 performances in California.

Netizens are already making accusations that the two are hooking up secretly, due to a slight touch of the hand.

Rabid fan girls and crazy fan boys all over the world, are distraught with the slightest thought of this couple in development.

It's not unnatural to be sleeping with each other, especially when there's easy access to a bunch of good looking girls. Regardless, netizens as usual, are making a big deal out of nothing. We can still derive two things out of this story though:

1. It doesn't matter which continent you are on, crazy Korean fan girls are everywhere, like a bunch of cockroaches who need RAID.

2. If they are really hooking up, Xiah has terrible taste, at least go for the hotter ones, like Yuri or Jessica - unless his goal is to produce some super singing baby to enslave under SM Entertainment.
