4minute enlists the help of Nichkhun’s brother for “4minute’s Mr. Teacher”

Nichkhun’s older brother, Nichan, has become a hot topic amongst netizens lately after arriving in Korea on January 5th.

Originally a VJ and MC in Thailand, Nichan is visiting Korea to ‘teach’ the 4minute ladies for their new E Channel TV show, “4minute’s Mr. Teacher.

The reality show aims to prepare 4minute for their international advancement by teaching them different cultures and languages – the kicker lies in the fact that these tutors are hot, pretty boys from Thailand, Japan, Taiwan and many other locations. Nichan was chosen to be the group’s Thai teacher.

As he waits for his first broadcast on January 19th, Nichan commented, “I’ll not only raise awareness about Thai culture, but reveal stories about my little brother, Nichkhun, as well.”

Oricon predicts KARA to be the number one breakout artist of 2011

A survey in weekly publication Ori☆Sta asked 500 members of the Oricon Monitor Researchcommittee who they felt would get their lucky break in 2011, and K-pop fans will be pleased to hear the news.

Coming in at number one was none other than star rookies KARA, a Korean girl group whose famous “butt dance” even had Miura Haruma shaking his behind. Second place went toShoujo Jidai, better known by Korean fans as SNSD. Both KARA and Shoujo Jidai dominated the end of 2010 with their catchy tunes, knocking off a six-year record and stealing the titles of highest-selling newcomers on the Oricon year-end charts.

Third place went to AKB48’s sister group SKE48. SMAP came in at fourth, and flumpool came in fifth.

Do you think 2011 will really be KARA and Shoujo Jidai’s year?

Pictures of T-ara’s Eunjung knocked out captures interest

A four-set picture of T-ara’s Eunjung completely knocked out from exhaustion has been an amusing topic on the internet as of recent.

Four pictures of Eunjung were taken at the set of ‘Dream High’, all of which are of Eunjung in heavy deep sleep mode, tired from the lack of sleep from filming the drama.

In December of 2010, T-ara made an appearance on MBC ‘Light Good Day’, and while memberJiyeon was getting interviewed, poor Eunjung was seen sleeping in a chair in the background with her neck completely cocked to one side. Other photos were said to be taken by fellow T-ara members, their ooordis and managers.

Eunjung is currently filming as one of the main actors in the new drama, “Dream High”, alongside miss A’s Suzy, Kim Soo Hyun, IU, and 2PM’s Taecyeon and Wooyoung.


KARA is NO.1 For Next Big Hit


Weekly entertainment magazine “Ori★Star”’s OMR (Oricon Monitor Research) took a survey of 500 people (250 males, 250 females) to find the “Next Big Hit Ranking 2011”. KARA came in 1st and SNSD came in 2nd, the Korean girl groups are monopolizing the top spots. They took over the Japan music scene during the 2nd half of last year. In Oricon’s yearly total sales, they were the #1 and #2 newcomers. These 2 groups are building a firm position in Japan and in this survey they also are at the top.

3rd place went to AKB48’s sister group located in Nagoya, SKE48. 4th went to the techno rock unit Sakanaction. 5th went to flumpool, who does the theme song for the movie “Kimi ni Todoke”and who has appeared 2 years in a row on Kouhaku. 6th goes to the actress-singer Kuroki Meisa (22).

4Minute's songs rank in Nate and Dosirak


Recently, Nate released the full ranking for the '2010 Most Popular Ringtones', for the female category. 4Minute managed to earn three spots in the ranking, where one of them are HyunAh's solo, 'Change' while the other two are 'HuH' and 'I My Me Mine'. Change managed to grab the #22 place, while HuH and I My Me Mine were ranked #25 and #30 respectively. It is surely a great achievement for them to rank all three of their songs that were heavily promoted in the rankings.

On the side note, 4Minute also continued their success in the '2010 Dosirak Rewind'. It is a summary that compiled all the hits in the year 2010. 'Change' and 'HuH' managed to rank highly compared to the Nate's '2010 Most Popular Ringtones, grabbing #13 and #20 respectively. 'I My Me Mine' was also included, ranking #47 out of 50 songs.

4Minute worth more than $400K USD for CFs


Recently, TV Report did a special report about how much celebrities were paid in order to appear on commercials. They compiled all the results taken from companies and concluded the amount each artists earn through commercials alone that will begin it promotions in the year 2011.

4Minute were reported to have earn approximately more than $400,000 USD, along with 2AM, CNBLUE, KARA, MBLAQ, and After School.

If we look back through 2010, 4Minute done quite a lot of commercials and ads, including Metacone, Ariul and also Shoemaker. The report was meant for commercials that would be aired in 2011, so we can guess 4Minute will be appearing in a lot of commercials in 2011. Up until now, we haven't get an official news from Cube regarding which companies that is mentioned in the report.
