Unpredictable Relationships in On Air: Who will end up with who?

SBS drama, “On Air” which revolves around the life of celebrities, managers, producers and writers continues its interesting development. Episode 7 talked about how Oh Seung Ah ex-manager ”cripples” her career and the dark side of artistes management. But the ending sees Seung Ah solving the problem by willing to take a step back and become the second lead instead by acting the 7 year old mentally challenged kid instead of the leading doctor role.

In the following episode 8, we see them going to Taiwan to choose location for filming while Seung Ah goes there as a travel ambassador of some sort. It was interesting to see them in Taiwan and visiting Jiufen which is a famous tourist spot and I have been there a couple of times myself. Seeing them there makes me want to go back there again. Kim Ha Neul also had to speak Chinese because of Oh Seung Ah ambassador role and her Chinese pronounciation was pretty fluent. This episode was very fun and enjoyable to watch.

The relationship development really progressed to another level in this episode and just when you thought that yes, they are together, they throw another storyline in to muddle your thoughts altogether, ingenious.

Right from the second episode, celebrity Oh Seung Ah and manager Jang Ki Joon are paired together while work commitments links writer Seo Young Eun and producer Lee Kyung Min together. Because of Ki Joon’s help seven years ago from a bogus fraudster, Seung Ah is very grateful to him and signs with him despite him struggling now. Jang Ki Joon also tells her about his crush on Young Eun many years ago while she was still a newbie writer. But he never ever told her about his feelings. As for Lee Kyung Min, he is attracted to Young Eun initially for her writing talent and then falls for her. While Young Eun likewise for him after having her tantrums neutralized by him constantly.

In the Taiwan episode, all of them goes to Jiufen separately at first. But by coincidence, Seung Ah meets Kyung Min in a shop where the latter suggests they should go together. Seung Ah agrees as they had a wonderful time together savouring the local delicacies, etc. And when Seung Ah was surrounded by fans who recognised her, Kyung Min suddenly puts his cap on her, takes her hand and runs away from the horde of fans. This was a spanner thrown in the works by the writers to mislead us probably. Then later back at the hotel, Kyung Min looks sweetly at the photos he had taken of her at Jiufen.

On the other hand, Ki Joon meets Young Eun at a teahouse as the earlier expressed his feelings for her vaguely. Extended background between them. There’s also the umbrella scene which adds to the ambuigity.

The confusing seemingly one-sided love between the four leads has gotten many viewers perplexed. Immediately after the Taiwan episode was broadcast, many netizens started posting on the official website hoping to see the four-way relationships being defined more clearly and also started giving their two cents about who should end up with who. Who would you choose?

Viewers are definitely enjoying “On Air” as it surpassed the 20% mark in ratings for both episodes last week, coming in top despite Hong Gil Dong last episode.

Kim Sun Ah was supposed to be part of G.O.D!

Danny Ahn from G.O.D (Groove Over Dose) revealed recently that G.O.D was supposed to be a mixed group of 6 with five guys and one girl.

In KBS2TV “Happy Together” program shown on 27th March, Danny Ahn had revealed, “When G.O.D was formed, it was supposed to be five guys plus one girl to form a six member mixed group. The group name was to be G.O.D Six.”

But then Park Jin Young came in the picture as their producer and said that G.O.D is not going to be a mixed group, recommending Kim Tae Woo to be part of the group instead and dropping the female member totally. Danny Ahn still feels sorry for the supposed-to-be female member of G.O.D.

After that broadcast, the netizens started getting interested in who that female member was and starting leaving messages on the program’s official website.

It was later revealed that the female member was actress Kim Sun Ah who shot to fame thanks to her role in, “My Name is Kim Sam Soon”. Lucky break!!!

“We Got Married” reveals celebrities out of bed looks

The four make-believe newly wed couples on MBC Sunday Sunday Night, “We Got Married”will be showing them getting up from bed and exercising together.

In tonight’s episode, Jung Hyung Don-Saori, Alex-Shin Ae, Solbi-Andy, Crown J-Seo In Young couples will reveal their fresh faces after getting up from bed. The four couple will also get a “exercise together for a healthy lifestyle” mission. The couples will have lots of interesting ideas to choose from. Andy-Solbi couple chose Pocketball and things got interesting after they decided to wager on the person who loses will have to give the other person a light peck.

Alex who charmed Shin Ae previously with his culinary skills and song bought her to a gym this time. Alex volunteered to become Shin Ae’s fitness trainer and his strict training regime even shocked the production team filming them.

Crown J and Seo In Young continued in their battle to assume supremacy over each other. They were suppose to go exercising but with both of them hating that, they started squabbling with each other, amply showing that they are the ticking time bomb couple in the program.

“We Got Married” is the first-ever program in Korea that unites two celebrities together to become a couple. Since it’s first episode on 9th March, it has gotten good reviews. After just two episodes, the growing popularity among viewers could be the catalyst for “Sunday Sunday Night” to see a surge in their ratings.

Have heard good reviews about this and frankly miss the romance factor in Korean variety. Although this is partly scripted, it still is helluva interesting especially after I watched the chinese subbed episode 2.

Lee Dong Gun brings his brother’s urn back to Korea

Lee Dong Gun returned to Korea via Incheon Airport at around 6pm yesterday evening with his brother’s urn. He wore the customary black suit with a pained expression on his face as he exchanged a few words with grieved relatives at the arrival gate before swiftly departing the airport.

When Lee Dong Gun appeared at the arrival gate area with the urn yesterday, his relatives couldn’t bear the grief and started sobbing. Lee Dong Gun was expressionless and his blood-shot eyes tells us that the loss of his dear brother has bought him immense pain and we can only look on.

His brother, Lee Joon Yub, 19, collapsed and died on the footpath outside World Square after he and a friend became embroiled in a brawl with two Chinese teenagers and was stabbed outside Hungry Jacks on 20th March.

Lee Dong Gun who had been very close to his brother immediately flew to Australia with his parents the next day to claim his body after learning of the tragic news. His brother’s body was cremated in Sydney on 26th March.

Upon returning, Lee Dong Gun immediately headed for the Samsung Medical Center at Ilwon-Dong where his brother’s urn will be placed temporarily at the mourning hall. The funeral will run for four days while a memorial service will be conducted in a Catholic church through a mass format on 31st March.

Actress and former girlfriend of Lee Dong Gun, Han Ji Hye came to the mourning hall and used her tears to console him over the tragic loss of his brother. She arrived at around 11.30pm last night, just a few hours after Lee Dong Gun had returned with his brother’s urn from Australia.

According to someone from Han Ji Hye’s company, “After completing the filming for “I Hate You But It’s Fine” drama, she rushed over to the hospital immediately.” It’s understood that when she arrived, she started tearing because she had lost someone who was like a brother to her as well.

Han Ji Hye and Lee Dong Gun was a couple until the end of last year when they broke up which left many fans disappointed.

Korean words emblazoned on Rain’s race suit in Speed Racer arouses interest

A full-length body picture of global popstar, Rain who plays Taejo Togokhan in his Hollywood debut movie, “Speed Racer” was revealed recently and the Korean words emblazoned on his track suit aroused interest.

“Speed Racer” is adapated from 1960s Japanese anime Mach GoGoGo which was authored by Tatsuo Yoshida. The movie is written and directed by the Wachowski brothers of Matrix trilogy fame.

Rain plays a East Asian rookie driver and his character invited criticism in the production stage because his Taejo Togokhan character was originally Japanese but yet he was representing Korea.

So with that in mind, Rain started brainstorming in order to make his Taeko character look Koreanised and one of his ideas was to emblazon Korean wordings on his track suit and helmet.

According to Rain’s management, “Rain is one of Korea’s top stars and with this being a Hollywood movie, we have been trying our best to change the original Japanese driver image into a Korean one. He (Rain) suggested to the production company to emblazon Korean words on his track suit and helmet and they thought it was a feasible idea and it was later adopted.

They also added that the Korean words emblazoned on the left arm of his track suit and helmet wrote, “Togokhan” which also meant that the Japanese identity was being marginalised.

Rain’s movie, “Speed Racer” will be shown all over the world on 8th May. He is now currently undergoing training in Berlin, Germany for his leading role in Hollywood movie, “Ninja Assassin”.

Charlene Choi on the verge of nervous breakdown?

Gossip magazines are famed for writing exaggerated stories based on pictures. But I decided to post this since I think there’s some truth in that Charlene Choi is really tired and stressed out lately having to do so much by herself.

Charlene Choi is reportedly on the verge of breaking down due to the stress and tiredness of doing everything by herself in the absence of Gillian Chung who is still on vacation. Two magazines have reportedly claimed different stories to suggest that Charlene is not in the best of conditions right now.

“3 Weekly” claims that Gillian had gone on a lovey dovey vacation with Juno Mak, leaving Charlene to fend for herself and taking in all the pressure from the fallout of the scandal. This has led to Charlene feeling stressed out and her weight has dropped to only 88 pounds with her health blinking red.

Ah Sa (Charlene) who has always greeted us with a smiling face is actually frowning behind her smile. Just see what she has to do in Gillian’s absence.

Having to answer question after question about Gillian Chung despite her total non-involvement at all in the whole Edison Chen scandal

Having to attend more events than usual by herself alone to make up for the shortfall in terminated appearances due to the Edison Chen scandal

Making almost daily public appearances

Having to replace Gillian in the movie “武侠梁祝” which is in addition to her scheduled role in “Storm Riders 2″. She has to now fly between Shanghai and Thailand simulatenously since both filming schedules are in the same time period. Last but not least, both are action movies

All in all, the reports suggests that she is on the verge of a breakdown resulting in her appetite declining. There were even reporters asking her about Isabelle Leung problems to which she replied, “I can’t handle so much”.

Another magazine, “East Weekly” reportedly got a shot of Charlene crying on the shoulders of someone and her eyes were so sore after that that she had to buy eyedrops to lessen the pain. It continued by saying that Charlene often cries to herself after reaching home and is having sleepless nights. Days earlier, after doing a body check-up in Central area, she especially headed over to the pharmacy to get eyedrops for her sore eyes.

Fallout from the Edison Chen Scandal: Strife Within the C.L.O.T. Family

Those who are privy to the rumblings at Edison Chen’s lifestyle company, CLOT, may have noticed that music producer Hanjin’s blog has been conspicuously removed from the CLOT blogs in the wake of the Edison Chen scandal.

Who is Hanjin? Well, the native Singaporean also known as 陈奂仁 is a member of the music group Invisible Men and has performed with and written/produced many songs for Edison. In fact, Edison has gone on record in the past as saying that “the only reason I still do music is because of Hanjin.” So why the fallout?

Apparently, in the weeks after the whole EDC scandal Hanjin posted a peculiar blog post with the subject line “monster turtle from the past…destroying everything in it’s path.” In the controversial blog post, is a picture of a sword-wielding toy princess chopping off the head of a poor toy turtle. Clearly, there were undertones to this post as Hanjin’s blog is now defunct and he is rumored to have taken up a job with now infamous EEG.

His post obviously can be interpreted as a major sign of disloyalty not only to Edison but to the CLOT family. It would not come as a surprise if CLOT higher-up Kevin Poon said enough is enough and fired Hanjin. Clearly, they are trying to keep tight-lipped about this as nobody has even come close to commenting on the incident on their blogs. This is a strong showing of loyalty to Edison.

Serendipitously, Edison’s JUICE store in HK is now undergoing renovations giving them some months to regroup and plot out their next moves in the game.

Edison in Hong Kong? In America? Does it matter?

East Asia Music has been claiming that Edison Chen is in America now after leaving Hong Kong secretly last month. But according to a latest Hong Kong gossip magazine, he is now actually still in Hong Kong staying at Le Meridien Cyberport Hotel. They even have a photo as evidence but with it being extremely poor and low resolution, it’s hard to tell whether it’s Edison at all.

Verification was sought with Ms Leong from East Asia Music but she firmly insisted, “He’s in America!”

According to the magazine, Edison did leave Hong Kong last month and was in Bangkok. But instead of going to America, he took another flight back to Hong Kong instead. Upon arrival, he headed straight for Le Meridien Cyberport Hotel instead of his own apartment and has been there ever since. He is actually settling his personal matters and preparing for his school term in America, waiting for the term to start before flying there.

The magazine revealed that Edison who is a habitual smoker has been seen in his 9th floor room puffing away and special arrangement has been made with the hotel to use the special entrance if needed.

An eye witness said to the magazine on 9th March that she had seen him near the hotel, “Around 5pm, I saw him wearing a t-shirt, jeans and beanie and made his way to Cyberport’s The Arcade from the hotel. He did not have any bodyguards with him but was with a 20 year old foreign lady.

“I saw with my own eyes that Edison was with a quite good looking westerner. She was holding documents and it seems like they were talking business. They were laughing and Edison appeared to be relaxed. But when he noticed that someone was looking at him, he immediately looked down and walked away quickly.”

The case has died down and the magazine is just trying to pull a fast one. That photo might not be a recent one anyway.

Gillian Chung visits White Dragon King in Thailand

Thailand’s White Dragon King (白龙王) is an extremely popular divine figure in the Hong Kong entertainment industry and even East Asia Music Boss, Peter Lam and Albert Yeung of Emperor Entertainment Group have make it a habit of visiting him often for ”advice”. Another well-known star is Tony Leung Chiu Wai.

After Edison’s scandal broke out, Peter Lam had actually flew out to Thailand on the same day of his press conference to seek a remedy to the problem.

On 9th March, Albert Yeung was discovered visiting White Dragon Temple together with Ah Gill (Gillian Chung) to seek a solution to their problem.

In contrast to others who came to seek his help, Gillian had about 5cm of her hair snipped off by White Dragon King while paying her respects to him who then proceeded to store it in a small transparent bag. He then started chanting towards it apparently trying to dispel the “misfortune” befalling it’s owner.

But he took a rest midway through the chanting possibly realising that it was futile and said to Albert Yeung, “You (Albert) will be fine, but your employee (Gillian) will not be.” Albert Yeung appeared helpless at his words.

Police divulging information to protect Edison? 8 daughters from wealthy families implicated

Despite the lack of photos/videos leaked by “Kira”, the nude photo scandal has been kept going these past few days thanks to police leaking information about starlets implicated to the various Hong Kong magazines.

The latest shocking relevation do not involve female starlets but the names of 8 daughters from wealthy families who have been thrown into the mix as well!

This shocking scoop was published in the latest copy of Next Magazine as they also list the characteristics and described the 8 women linked with Edison.

第三代
Born in the family as the 3rd generation. Looks demure but extremely playful. If possible, you will see her at parties. Although still quite young, she often brings her boyfriends back to hotels and play till early morning. Her attitude towards making friends is extremely open.

DCup肉女
Thanks to her bosomy figure, she has become a live advertising board for the company. She would always get a personal invitation from Edison to parties. But the two of them are just together for a fling because she already has a foreigner boyfriend already.

健康玉女
Widely acknowledged to have the best looks and figure among the rich girls. Already has her own management company at a young age. Looks pure on the outside but her private life doesn’t quite match up to it.

便服公主
Has a pretty step-mom. Although very young, she has a very open attitude. Never fails to show her cleavage or bare back at events.

为食千金
Looks cool on the outside but is often seen at parties and gatherings. Low profile but still playful likewise. Has a liking for smoking and alcohol.

国宝大敌
Was the girlfriend of some 二世祖 a few years back. Caught partying hard with 防腐歌手 recently and was hailed by the other party as his “brother”.

大眼鬼妹
Studied overseas, has a rebellious character. Loves to doll herself up. Was rumoured to be a lesbian, loves to put intimate photos on her blog for all to see.

悠闲WET妹
Returned to Hong Kong after graduating overseas for over a year. Does nothing much and usually hangs around Lan Kwai Fong or go shopping at branded shops. Highest record was dating six boyfriends at one go.

Many have chided the police for making the scandal look even worse day by day. But some have come to understand that by divulging these information, they are actually protecting Edison and lessening the pressure on him.

The police are indirectly saying that many people have come to known the identities of those implicated in these. So if anyone of them dares to make a move on Edison, then they would not be let off easily.

Police insider leaking information from Edison Chen nude photos scandal?

I am not sure why, but the longer this goes on with no end in sight, more names are being thrown up. Surely someone has to stop this from happening. Could there be a “mole” in the police? Even if “Kira” has stopped his work, another list of female starlets involved has been made known and it includes seven of them plus shockingly, two guys as well! Two photos included 3P scenes while one of the guys is apparently a male artiste.

Edison hasn’t really suffered from this at all especially since he managed to enter and depart Hong Kong without any bodily hurt. In fact, he is more well-known than before and is set for Hollywood where this scandal is likely to have little impact and less pressure on him than if he was to stay in Hong Kong.

All of them have been given nicknames to mask their real identity. I shall not translate their nicknames because it wouldn’t make any sense in english. I am not going to name them either since it’s not really confirmed but you can make a guess on who it might be from the description and their silhouette images.
　　
The 7 female starlets and 2 guys
The article did describe each set of photos belonging to each person but I am not going to go into detail for that since most of them are x-rated anyway.

大胸外劳
Is widely known to have a “hefty” chest and is a foreigner. She tried to make a name for herself in Hong Kong by leaving her country of birth. But her star never shone despite few years of hard work and she has been receiving lesser work as time goes by. She was initially implicated and forced to leave Hong Kong to take cover. But the rumours from police indicate that she is implicated in this.
　　
厚唇荡女
She in her early day took “racy” pictures but has since cleaned up her act and is now known for her acting talent. But she is still being labelled as a sexy star. She has a proportionate body and appears outgoing. Despite having worked with Edison just once, they hit it off straight away.
　　
穿环女模
Debuted as a model and is known to have ”pierced rings”. She is of mixed blood and is slightly on the thin sight but her outgoing personality has charmed many guys. She hits it off well with Edison because both of them are “devilish” in nature. They still keep in contact even though they have broken up, and occasionally engage in a fling.　　

久旱天后
This person has a “big sister” role in the industry and hasn’t dated for quite a few years already. She claims Edison is her good brother and friend but their close relations has led many to suspect it isn’t that simple. To protect her reputation, she denied any involvement when this scandal broke. But according to sources, she is also one of the implicated starlets.
　　

T-back黑妹
She is slightly tanned and hails from a family who are incidentally all entertainers. Has a rebellious character and loves to play around. She changes her boyfriends like traffic lights. But she likes foreigners especially and has been spotted with many of them in the past. She was once spotted wearing a T-back swimsuit for a tan. It’s known that Edison managed to snitched her because they both grew up overseas and studied together.。
　　
名人千金
She has a beautiful step-mom and has a rich dad so she is considered to be very wealthy. Despite not being part of the industry, her boyfriend once dabbled in a band with Edison’s friend and so often got together during night time. She is understood to have a fling with Edison being getting together with her present boyfriend. But her relationship with Edison was never bought to the surface or discovered.

微波玉女
Debuted along the path as a pure innocent idol and was set to be the company’s trump card. But thanks to recent bad publicity, her popularity has sunk to a new low. She refuted earlier claims that she was involved in the scandal but according to latest news, she is definitely involved in this.
　　

乡下潮人
Edison who has hooked many women, taking their pictures and also engaging in plots even, has also done 3P scenes too. He is seen playing a girl with another man in some photos. Although this man isn’t wealthy and has fought with Edison before, but they manage to patch up and found that they had the same interest, engaging in 3P with a girl outside of the industry.

金毛阿四
Sometimes friend sometimes helper. Although he is short, he has dyed golden hair and is a unattractive artiste in the industry. But thanks to Edison, he also has women throwing themselves at him. It’s said that the both of them often get together with new girls and take videos.

Disclaimer: Knowing in nature how sensationalist Hong Kong magazines are, please do not for one moment think that it’s 100% confirmed that this is the list.
