T-ara’s Hyomin pens a thoughtful letter to a fan

T-ara’s Hyomin recently wrote a heartfelt handwritten letter to her fans.

On May 3rd, Hyomin revealed a photo of herself writing a letter and the letter itself. She tweeted,

A love letter has arrived

The letter reads,

I figured that a letter might best express my sincerity… I was wearing a mask because the Asian dust storm has gotten so bad, but I felt like I was declaring ‘I am a celebrity’ and that I would hear ‘I don’t know who you are anyways’, so I carefully folded it and placed it in my bag… Thank you for watching over me and encouraging me whenever it was hard or when I felt lonely. I will accomplish this album, Japanese activities, drama, and movie. Point out my lackings, but also compliment me when I do well. I will compensate… I hope that we will have a closer relationship.

Fans who saw this handwritten letter commented, “Seems like Hyomin is the only one to ever write a handwritten letter even though she is not apologizing for an accident” and “I’m so moved. She is so pretty and her heart is so warm too.

KBS 2TV revamps Saturday line-up, “100 Points out of 100″ canceled

KBS 2TV has reported that their two programs, “100 Points out of 100” and “On Your Command, Sir“, will be coming to an end due to a revamping of their Saturday line-up.

An official from KBS stated, “‘100 Points out of 100′ and ‘On Your Command, Sir’ will be removed from the Saturday evening time slot and replaced with new variety programs under the tentative title, ‘Declaration of Freedom Saturday‘.”

“Declaration of Freedom Saturday”, which will include “Secret” and “Immortal Song 2“, is a new format that is modeled after KBS’s Sunday line-up, “Happy Sunday.” “Secret” is a program centered around the secrets of seven celebrities who will be talking about their secrets and playing accompanying games. As reported previously, “Immortal Song 2″ is a singing competition program where the best vocal talents within idol groups show off their skills.

KBS officials added, “For now, it was decided that ‘100 Points out of 100′ and ‘On Your Command, Sir’ will be canceled. However, there is a possibility that the two programs will be combined to form a new program. There are still many variables, so after further discussions, we will decide by the middle of next week.”

Star's past since when were they pretty?


"Since when were so pretty?"

There are many pretty women on TV. We wonder if they are 'pretty from birth' or 'medically pretty'. We can check the truth from their graduation or debut pictures through the Internet. Among the pretty women are those from a beauty contest or were a child actor. There are also those who fired up male students hearts in uniforms. There are also pretty women who have peculiar experiences and are favorites by the public and in online shopping malls.

★Beauty contest from birth

There is a "Pretty Child Contest" where all the good looking kids gather. It is also known as the "Little Miss Korea" made up of cute kids all over the country. 'Icon of revenge' Jang Seo-hee is one actress from a child beauty contest.

Winning the first place of this contest, she made her debut through a commercial and rose to fame as a child actress. She was extraordinarily pretty with her bright eyes and doll-like face. Heroine Kim Hyeon-joo from MBC "Twinkle Twinkle" is also the same case. She had big eyes and fair skin.

Girl group f(x) youngest Sully was also a pretty child despite the fact that she was only 6 years old then. The group hasn't been able to win first place in music programs yet but their looks have been given the first place. Sully won the "Big Ribbon Child Award" in a contest in 2005. Besides her height, everything about her is the same and she looks like she's about to host the contest.

★My face was on TV since I was a kid

Kim Hye-soo was amazingly pretty when she was younger. She was born with looks and a good healthy body. She succeeded in transforming her kid image with her sexiness. Her Barbie Girl pose which was not easy to see then, is perfect even now. "The Thorn Birds"Kim Min-jeong can be called the textbook of child actors. She appeared on TV at the age of 9 in 1990.

She is perfect with her clear features and skilled acting, making it hard to believe she was a child actress. Her big marble-like eyes make anyone who looks at them fall for her. Moon Geun-yeong could still be called a child actress. When she first came out as the younger version of Song Hye-kyo in the year 2000 drama "Autumn in my Heart", she became a big hit. She was always crying in the drama but all the men in the country cried with her. Despite it being 10 years since her debut she hasn't aged on bit.

★Male students crowded outside school

Do you know the 3 beauties from Eungwang Girls High? Lee Jin, Song Hye-kyo and Han Hye-jin were beauties from this school who had control all over Seoul Dogok-dong. Their pointy noses and clear features are no different from today.

There is no other difference from then than the fact that she's wearing uniforms. Lee Yeon-hee was recently known as a beauty in Bundang. Her eyes and milk-like skin shows how fresh she is. Girl's Generation Yoona's only embarrassment is that she doesn't have any. There wouldn't be another graduation picture like hers even though she graduated high school after her debut. Those who look at it would be cleansed of the eyes.

★Unusual career

Everyone knows Nam Sang-mi was well known as the employee at the fast food restaurant in front of Hanyang University. Her shiny eyes look like they could sell ten burgers to someone who came in to buy only one. It's not a lie that the fast food place was packed with people who came to see her. Goo Ha-ra was a fitting model. What wouldn't look good on that ant-like waist? Her thin body and pretty face still look the same.

Member of Miss A Suzy was also a fitting model. Her unusual growth gave her height and a beautiful body. Her poses and expressions from her photo collections show that she got the basics from her past career. She looks like she's ready to walk on the runway at any time.

Goo Ha-Ra "Just Got Prettier Through Plastic Surgery"

Some female artists leave shocking statements related to their appearance. They sometimes say "I'm pretty" in talk shows or awards. It looks like pretty people are proud of their prettiness. Here are some pictures of their younger days

- Goo Ha-ra "I just got prettier through plastic surgery"
Big eyes, slender body, "Barbie Girl" of female groups Goo Ha-ra. She said, "I did touch up my face a little but my baby face is still there. Her pointy nose and deer-like eyes in the picture proves she's right. This is the picture that cut off at once the rumor that she had a major face lift.

- Hwang Jeong-eum "My dream when I was younger was becoming Miss Korea"

She made SG Wanabe Kim Yong-joon fall in love with her at first sight. Well, she wanted to become Miss Korea. In "Little Angels" in her younger days she was envied by her seniors because of her looks. Her picture proves this wasn't an over statement. Her clear features and cute smile brings out the word "indeed".

-Sin Bong-seon "I've always been pretty"

Attractive comedian Sin Bong-seon said, "I didn't become pretty. I have always been pretty". In her kindergarten graduation picture her crossed face is so cute. Her double-eye lidded eyes and round nose is Sin Bong-seon today. "I have always been cute" is better suitable than "I have always been pretty".

-Ha Ji-won "I was pretty from birth"

The in-talk "Since when were you so pretty?" made Ha Ji-won answer, "I was pretty since birth". Where does she get the confidence? We can see the answer in her elementary school graduation picture. She had bold eyes and an egg-shaped face.

-IU "I was prettier when I was younger"

IU said, "I was prettier when I was younger" at a younger picture of herself. To be called the 'national little sister' must it be this basic? Fair skin and cute features. Little IU is sitting on the grass with a cute pose. There is no other word to explain her but "national cutie". I ~ like ~ IU~ what shall I do?!

-Sully "I know I'm pretty"

"I know I am pretty but am I really that pretty?" says Sully in her diary from when she was in elementary school. From the "Pretty Kid Contest" she is an approved beauty. Her picture from the past is also the best. Her big eyes cover half her face and she has puffy lips with a natural V-line. Netizens say she must've saved the country in her previous life.
