BoA is currently practicing with her fellow actors and the director for the new drama that is set to air this upcoming October.
4. Cube Entertainment
Cube Entertainment has recently been revealed to be suffering from internal conflicts as multiple employees have resigned from the management division. As employees and the companies were unable to find common ground, some employees have even turned their backs on the company and have cut all communications. With management teetering on the edge, it was inevitable that the Cube artists would take a toll on their activities. Cube Entertainment has responded that HyunA’s new album, which was scheduled for mid-August is still on the board, but is currently undergoing adjustments. In regards to the new boy group, Pentagon’s debut concert, Cube has responded that they are not sure whether or not the concert will be possible.
5. YG reveals their epic debut plans for their new girl group, Black Pink.
YG Entertainment has revealed that their new girl group, Black Pink, will be releasing songs back to back continuously for the remainder of 2016. Starting with their debut song dropping at the end of July, the girls will be making their comebacks in a series of at least 8 new songs. Their main producer, Teddy has been working with the girls for the past 2 years on their album. With that much effort put into quality of the songs, Papa YG has decided to release the songs individually, as only the title tracks usually get the attention with every comeback. With two music videos already recorded and set for release, the girls will be finalizing the rest of the series and will release a final full album at the end of the year.
6. The Legend sues SS Entertainment to nullify their contracts.
K-Pop boy group, The Legend, has filed a court case against their label, SS Entertainment, to nullify their contracts. The group has cited inefficacity and lack of contract fulfillment as the cause. The Legend’s representative has claimed that the agency has failed to rightfully support the members as a label. According to their contract, SS Entertainment were responsible to do everything in their power to help The Legend grow and improve in their talents; however, the group had been unable to even receive lessons, which is critical to an idol’s career. The representative farther revealed that the members have not been gratified for their work so far, and have not been given the proper amenities as promised in the contract. The group’s dorm’s has had their gas and electricity cut off due to the label failing to pay their bills.
7. #Save_BTS_From_Airport_SaSaeng trends on social media sites.
The hashtag calling for SaSaeng fans to stop harassing the BTS members have been trending on various social media sites. According to related posts, sasaeng fans (over the top fans) have been overstepping the boundary lines of the group’s privacy in multiple hazardous situations. The posts ask the A.R.M.Ys to stop posting excessively inconsiderate photos of the members, as the sasaeng fans go even above and beyond to get a closer picture or encounter with the boys. Some time ago, Big Hit Entertainment had also released an official warning to sasaeng fans about hazardous obsessive behaviors at the airport.
8. Park YuChun of JYJ is declared innocent on 4 sexual assault charges.
Although a DNA match has been found, the singer/actor was found innocent of the 4 sexual assault charges on the decision that the evidence lacks to prove forced actions. As the singer was found clear of the scandal of four women lodging complaints against him for rape, Police reports that he is now being charged with prostitution and fraud. Park YooChun is still suspected of having sex with one woman, while promising some sort of compensation, but failing to keeping his promise. On the other hand, Park YooChun has filed a counter complaint against two of the women for falsely accusing him of sexual assault. Police say that the two women are actually suspected of the complaint. As the case becomes a maze of charges thrown back and forth, the first woman is also accused of threatening the singer over the scandal after the police secured evidence of a money transaction between the singer and the woman. As the details and transactions are still under investigation, C-Jes Entertainment and Park YooChun officially apologized for being caught in such a scandal during his military duty. The singer’s side also completely denies of all charges made against the singer.
