“Paradise Ranch” has been gaining momentum as one of the top Mon-Tues dramas, thanks to the lead actors TVXQ’s Changmin and Lee Yeon Hee. Recently, another significant release was posted to attract more interest to the hot romantic comedy.

It looks like drama fans will be fairly disappointed, as two of Korea’s hottest dramas have revealed that they won’t be able to air a new episode tonight.
We’ve already reported that “Athena” won’t be able to broadcast a new episode due to actor Jung Woo Sung’s injury. As for “Dream High,” the high school teen drama will be replaced by the airing of the 2011 AFC Asian Cup semi-final clash between South Korea and Japan on January 25th.
The usual broadcast of the variety program “Win Win” will also be affected tonight.
Considering how “Athena”, “Dream High”, and “Queen of Reversals” are all equally popular for their time-slot, it could be an ample opportunity for “Queen of Reversals” to take the lead in viewership ratings tonight. “Dream High” scored a 15.9% rating on January 24th to cement the #1 spot while “Athena” achieved 14.8%, and “Queen of Reversals” nabbed 15.2%.

It was recently announced on January 25th that the three estranged members of KARA (Han Seungyeon, Jung Nicole, and Kang Ji Young) have been working together with DSP Media to find a mutual agreement and solve the current controversy.
“A conference is underway to find a peaceful solution. As we are currently discussing the details, we cannot yet reveal the current situation and hope for your understanding.”
The following is the official statement by DSP Media:
We, DSP Media, are currently putting in our best efforts in discussing with the three members (Han Seungyeon, Jung Nicole, and Kang Ji Young), who requested a contract termination with the agency on January 19th, to find a mutual solution.
On January 25th at 10 AM, we received a request from the three members’ legal representative, thus we are now currently in a conference to find a peaceful solution. As we are currently discussing the details, we cannot yet reveal the current situation and hope for your understanding.
For the sake of their important fans, KARA members have not changed their belief that the group must continue as five, and in order to stop this situation from escalating any further, both sides are hoping that a mutual agreement can be made.
Furthermore, as much as we are trying to find a peaceful solution, we sincerely request to suppress from releasing random articles.
The three members of KARA have finally revealed their demands in their contract adjustments with DSP Media, with the two main points being to shorten the contract time and having a modification in the board of directors.
With the three members having a contract that still lasts another 3-4 years, the trio has demanded their contracts be shortened to July of 2012 instead, as they would like to end their contract at the same time their contract with Universal Japan ends. They have also requested a more professional management team, as well as a transparent accounting system.
In addition, the three have requested for the resignation of the wife of CEO Lee Ho Yeon, who had been his replacement since last year after he fell into a coma. The trio would also like for a new system, whereby their legal representative could participate in the group’s accounting and contract audits.
It was later announced that DSP Media would agree to only partially meet their demands. A representative stated, “Isn’t demanding a shortening of their contract and a change in directors a bit too much? For reinforcing the management team and making a transparent accounting and contract system, if the members are willing to come back and discuss further, then there are possibilities that they can be partially accepted.”
