SHINee and f(x) pair up for ‘Auction’ photoshoot

Popular idol groups SHINee and f(x) put on their best spring clothes for their photoshoot with onlineshopping mall, ‘Auction‘.

For the site’s spring catalog, the members of SHINee and f(x) were outfitted in bright, colorful patterns, which were balanced by their sweet, pastel-hued props.

As ever, SHINee’s Onew proved himself to be a great leader by taking the initiative to create a relaxed environment. The idol joked around with the staff and colleagues, and ensured that everyone was smiling through the long hours.

The f(x) members also brought their professional outlooks, as staff members reported that the girls barely looked tired, even though the shoot lasted for two days. f(x)’s Victoria played the role of ‘big sister’ well by giving the younger ones snacks during breaks.

The groups created two ‘couples’ (Onew-Sulli and Minho-Victoria) for the shoot, and they worked perfectly together, as expected of the close labelmates.

SHINee and f(x) will act as Auction’s models for a year, starting this March.

“Heroes” cast visits a rice wine factory

The cast of SBS’s “Heroes” recently visited a rice wine factory to make their own rice wine, in addition to foods using the popular drink.

The filming took place in a traditional wine cultural center called ‘Sansawon‘. The cast made the rice wine themselves and had a competition making food using the fine ingredient.

Since the underage idols IU and Jiyeon couldn’t drink, they were inspired to pour all their efforts into the food competition. They stated, “I didn’t know there were so many dishes that could be made using traditional wines. Since we can’t drink, we’ll work hard on making the food“.

Meanwhile, comedienne Shin Bong Sun kept tasting the rice wine, as she joyfully pronounced, “Rice wine is so tasty!“. Eventually, she had to get restrained by her castmates for ‘drinking’ too much.

The segments have been divided into two episodes, which will air on March 27th and April 3rd.
