It’s a big day for these three idols – they are finally tying the ends to their high school years today (In contrast to the European system where the school year ends around June, Korea’s school year ends around March). The proud stars, or rather the graduates of 2010, are BEAST & 2AM’s maknaes, Son Dong Woon and Jin Woon, and also Younha (yes, she’s graduating high school)!



Son Dong Woon attended his graduation ceremony with BEAST members on the 4th at 10 AM KST at Seoul Hanyoung High School. He will focus on his activities for this year and will be applying for college next year.




Son Dong Woon Father

Father of Beast's maknae Dongwoon recently spoke out about about his son becoming an idol as well as Jaebum's incident with netizens that occurred four months ago.

Dongwoon's father, Son Illak, who is a professor of international manners for hotel adminstration at Cheongju University, recently wrote an article in A House Full of Happiness magazine regarding Jaebum's situation and giving his son some advice.



In his article, titled "Tolerance of 2PM's Jaebum", he writes in a letter style giving words of encouragement to his son as well as his own views about Jaebum's incident.

In his letter, he states:

As I further observed this case, I began to become skeptical at the understanding and generosity of this nation. How could we expect a young adult that has barely grown out of his teen years to be of perfect morality and ethics? What kind of nation is Korea if we cannot forgive a mistake he made in his own personal moment of immaturity and hardship? I think I have a general idea of who these people are, the people that so cruelly threw rocks at him instead of helping him up in his time of need. They're probably goody two shoes that have never once made a mistake in their lives. And if, by chance, some of them did make mistakes, then they are truly an unforgivable person.



I believe that the keyword of this generation is tolerance. To accept and respect those with a different opinion from your own and to tolerate an international generation. I hope that the netizens of our nation will learn to tolerate without discrimination and prejudice."

Professor Son ended his letter with words of encourgemnt and some advice for his son:

Son! The career that you have chosen is a lot like living in a glass bowl as a fish. It's a sad life in which you are always being watched and scrutinized. But, this is your dream! Be courteous in your every word and action. And if you ever meet someone that has fallen, never throw rocks at them. I truly hope that Jaebum will return to 2PM and something like this will never happen again. I dream for this nation to mature into a tolerant nation.

AJ was later released as the official second single from the EP, called Wipe The Tears.

Lee Gi Kwang name AJ Controversy

The name "AJ", which is common not only in Korea but also overseas, has created disputes among netizens since many expressed their dissatisfaction over him having the same name as Paran's AJ. Cube Entertainment responded by saying that AJ’s name is different from that of Paran AJ’s for his (Cube's AJ) name is short for ‘Ace Junior’. The company later announced that he would continue activities under a different name, but no changes were made until it was revealed that AJ would no longer continue activities, as he will have been preparing to debut as a member of BEAST. Since the group's debut, he is known as Gi Kwang, or Kikwang




Lee Gi Kwang activities

Ace Junior was the topic of a short-lived reality show, Diary of AJ, which was hosted by MTV. The show ran on two episodes on May 9, 2009 with a total of two episodes showcasing his Journey on his debut as AJ. Ever since, he was switched from a solo artist to a group member of BEAST, together with them they showcased their journey to debut on the topic of a short-lived reality show, MTV B2ST, which was hosted by MTV. He also has an acting role as SeHo on MBC's "High Kick Through the Roof".




Lee Gi Kwang ideal is Victoria f(x)

BEAST's Lee Gi Kwang admittance to liking girl group f(x) has become a topic. In MBC's broadcast of "Sunday, Sunday Night - Enthusiastic Brothers" on the 1st, Lee Gi Kwang was asked by Park Myung Soo to reveal the name of his favorite member in a girl group during the the first round "Don't Get Mad" of the "Emotions" topic.

Lee Gi Kwang says, "I admire f(x)'s Victoria" and continued to compliment, "Even though she isn't my type, she's really pretty and she gives off a pure, fresh feeling and gave me a good impression."



Park Myung Soo asked him, "Do you know how tall Victoria is?" to joke about his height. Lee Gi Kwang, at 170 cm tall, yelled, "How would I know?!"

On the other hand, Lee Gi Kwang asked Simon Dominic for his height. Although Simon Dominic said he was 170.1 cm tall, Lee Gi Kwang still insists that he's taller than him.




Lee Gi Kwang height

Idol group BEAST’s Lee Kikwang received humiliation for being shorter in height than comedian Park Myungsoo.

Currently on MBC’s ‘Hot Brothers’ (Hot Bros for short) of Sunday Sunday Night, Lee Kikwang is one of the idols of all idols as he has the good looks, built muscles, and a smile that makes women melt. He;s also improving his variety skills fully through the program. However, Lee Kikwang’s weakness (in the article they say Achilles Tendon and I have no idea why) is his short height. They’ve always speculated Lee Kikwang’s height but the topic has never risen to the surface.



Airing on the 27th, Hot Bro’s ‘fake MT (stands for Membership Training but it’s basically like a camping trip)’ where Lee Kikwang’s height of being shorter than Park Myungsoo will be revealed. Park Myungsoo insisted on measuring Lee Kikwang’s height, furthering the humiliation. However, Lee Kikwang gets revenge in the splits he commands to do.

How tall actually is Lee Gi Kwang ? Many information on Gi Kwang profile stated that he stands on 174 cm, but I think Lee Gi Kwang is about 170 cm.


Lee Gi Kwang Chocolate Abs



Singer and actor Lee Gikwang captured viewers' attention through revealing his luxurious figure on 'High Kick Through the Roof.'

On February 8th's broadcast of MBC 'High Kick Through the Roof,' Seho (Lee Gikwang) has been shown struggling to draw a manly appearance to charm Jungeum, who acknowleges him as a persistant, crazy man.

Seho first appeared before Jungeum in a suit in attempt to show a more adult demeanor. However, Jungeum rejects him with a nonchalant reply, causing lots of laughter. Going back to the vain effort to appear mature, Seho calls for the gym and shows a manly appearance through his muscles to attact Jungeum. But again, Jungeum responds with another cold remark.

Viewers who watched the broadcast commented with "Seho's cute face and contrasting body suprised me," "Jungeum's indifferent reaction was sad but thanks to that hot body, I was content," displaying hot reaction.

All this has caused the number of visits to his cyworld to skyrocket.

Yang Yo Seob on Twitter

Following in the footsteps of the other B2ST members, Yoseob is now on twitter! I guess now there's only one last person to complete the collection. Do follow him! Yang Yo Seob twitter is @helloimyys




Why can’t B2ST’s Yoseob fall asleep?

Keeping in mind that this hot group made their debut with ‘Bad Girl’ a little over a year ago, B2ST has been running ragged with an incredibly hectic schedule, as they’ve released four mini albums in just one year.

The group has barely had any rest, since on top of their weekly performances for their fourth title track ‘Beautiful‘, the members also have their own personal schedules to digest (Lee Ki Kwang for “Hot Brothers” and Yoon Doojoon for MBC “All My Love”), in addition to preparing for their first independent concert.



With only 2 hours of rest time, the members fall fast asleep even in moving vehicles. However, it’s been revealed that Yang Yoseob seems to be the only one who can’t sleep. Lee Ki Kwang revealed, “Because of Yoseob vocals, he has a lot of high-pitched parts of songs. That’s why he purposely stays up when the other members are sleeping – he’s scared that his throat will close up while he’s sleeping and his voice won’t sound right once he wakes up.”

Yo Seob added, “I can’t help stressing over it. I tend to want to sound perfect even while I’m practicing. I guess that’s why I’ve been losing weight. I didn’t think we would be able to release so many albums in such a short and busy period of time. I’m happy the songs have come out as good as we’ve practiced. Since we have a long way to go, we will work harder to show a better side of ourselves.”




Yang Yoseob shows off a perfect live at the ‘Hallyu Concert’ despite his surgery

On MBC at Show! Music Core that was broadcasted on the 4th, the cuts from the 2010 Incheon Hallyu Concert that occurred on the 29th of August in Incheon Moonhak Worldcup Stadium was displayed. On that day, Yang Yoseob had gone on stage and had sung "Special" and "Shock" live and won a round of applause from the fans with his safe vocal ranges. However attentions turn toward him once again after that it had been revealed that Yang Yoseob was not in his regular condition. He had gone on the stage even though he wasn't perfectly recovered from the surgery he had taken to remove the infection in his nose.



Someone from Cube Entertainment, BEAST management, stated, Truthfully, on that day, Yang Yoseob hadn't been 100% fully recovered. He was mostly recovered, however since we decided that it was going to be hard for him to sing live, we wanted to cancel the schedule. Then they revealed that Yang Yoseob had stated, We need to keep the promise with the fans. In addition Cube Entertainment added, since we knew that it was going to be hard singing live because of the surgery we decided to have background music. However Yang Yoseob told us, I'll give it a try, and he was able to fully sing on the live stage.

He had been fully able to sing live successfully even in a situation where he had to control his breathing only with his mouth since it was hard for him to breathe through his nose.
