[News] Seon-joon and Yoon-hee from 'Sungkyunkwan Scandal' became Romeo and Juliet


There are warning signs ahead for Micky Yoochun and Park Min-yeong, who were creating a sweet mood between them, after the secret of their family was revealed.

In the last episode of 'Sungkyunkwan Scandal', the happy couple, who just started to go out together, was described.

They show their affection toward each other secretly since Sungkynkwan is the place where no woman can enter. To kiss Yoon-hee who decided not to kiss again, Seon-joon writes letters.

Also, Seon-joon put a ring to Yoon-hee's finger with this saying, “Let's discuss our future together'. Then they assured their love by another sweet kiss.

The love between them, which looks like there will be no more problem, faced a warning sign. While they were kissing, they heard the conversation between Yong-ha and Jae-sin. Seon-joon's father was the killer of Yoon-hee's father. Their families were like cast and dogs.

In the preview of the next episode, more troubling scenes were found than sweet scenes. Netizens commented, “No way! They were so sweet today,” “Ah, that couple should maintain their love today,” “Will they become enemies because of their families?”

[News] T-ara trains to become stewardesses for new reality show


Filming for their new Mnet reality show, “T-ara’s Dream Girls“, the girls of T-ara stepped up to the challenge of becoming stewardesses. The members went through theory training, as well as learning CPR and other vital first-aid procedures.

The image of composure, dignity, and elegance associated with stewardesses sparked a small competition between Hyomin, Jiyeon, Eunjung, Soyeon, Qri, and Boram to see which one of them suited the image best.

The staff also had a hard time deciding which member was the best “stewardess” because they individually excelled in different areas. Jiyeon showed exceptional skills and quickness in fieldwork; Eunjung’s outgoing personality was well-suited for the service area; Soyeon completed all her stewardess missions; Qri’s feminine and considerate appearance best represented the stewardess “look”; Hyomin controlled the atmosphere with her positive attitude; and finally Boram showed leadership skills that were hidden in her small build.

The producers stated, “Because this is a reality program, the tests and classes are all real, from the first step of applications and interviews to finally partaking in an international flight. Actual prospective ’stewardesses’ trained alongside the T-ara members. The members were also trying their hardest because they could have been disqualified from the tests. Please watch with optimism.”

It’s shaping up to be an interesting episode, but where is Hwayoung?
