T-ara reveals that they cried after seeing their “Roly-Poly” outfits

T-ara’s unique outfits for “Roly-Poly” have been attracting a ton of attention lately for being fun and on-point with their retro theme. Interestingly enough, the girls confessed that they had cried when they first heard of their wardrobe concept for the song.

The members said, “We were so embarrassed of the outfits – even more so than the gloves we wore for ‘Bo Peep Bo Peep‘. They looked like they were picked by our moms right from a flea market. Shirts with wide collars, baggy disco pants, colorful button ups, and even a handkerchief to wrap around your neck.”

The wardrobe concept was introduced around the time when the girls saw other girl groups like SNSDand KARA get dressed up in pretty, ‘girl group-like’ clothes.

When they refused to wear it, they were reprimanded by their CEO.

The members went on to reveal that they were surprised by the reaction they received once they actually wore it on stage. “Not only did people enjoy them, but we’d often receive questions from adults asking where we bought the clothes; they told us that it makes them feel reminiscent about their youths. We felt proud. Ever since then, we began wondering about other things we could show on stage to help bring back the memories of everyone’s youths.”

The producer of ‘City Hunter’ clarifies the ending

On July 28th, SBS’s popular drama, ‘City Hunter‘ came to a close.

With the finale, the ending attracted much attention with controversial comments from viewers. The foster father of ‘Lee Yoon Sung‘ (played by Lee Min Ho), Jin Pyo (played by Kim Sang Joong), was hit by a gun and was filed as dead by Lee Yoon Sung.

Even though at the end, Yoon Sung and ‘Na Na‘ (played by Park Min Young) reunite, some viewers were left to believe that Yoon Sung was actually a ghostly figure. However, the producer, Kim Yong Sup, stated to TVDaily through a phone conversation on July 29th, “Yoon Sung is not dead“.

Kim Yong Sup elaborated, “Lee Min Ho was shot by a gun, and after much time passes, he eventually meets Park Min Young. He didn’t appear as a ghost as it was actually a time jump. Of course, I respect the arbitrary interpretation of the viewers. However, just the fact that Yoon Sung didn’t die is strictly speaking, the definition of a happy ending. The director and writer put in the scene with this as their mindset.”

However, the last episode of ‘City Hunter’ still resulted in the deaths of prosecutor ‘Yong Joo‘ (played by Lee Joon Hyuk) and Jin Pyo. Yoon Sung was injured by Jin Pyo’s bullet but recovered as time went by.

Khuntoria’s first love quarrel, Victoria blows up on Nichkhun

The lovely Khuntoria couple finally had their first fight.

In the upcoming episode of MBC’s “We Got Married”, 2PM’s Nichkhun and f(x)’s Victoria got into a quarrel over planting lettuce and peppers.

Khuntoria challenged themselves into starting a common hobby of planting lettuce and peppers, but Nichkhun’s small mistake fired up Victoria. As Victoria had always wanted to plant and raise vegetables her self, she passionately and carefully planted the vegetables, but Nichkhun made a mistake in the process which saddened Victoria.

The tension built up to an argument, escalating the situation into a couple fight.

However, the rumor is that Nichkhun calmed Victoria down by using his own special treatment.

On the upcoming July 30th episode of “We Got Married”, Eungjung and Lee Jang Woo will also be kicked out of their honeymoon camping car, whereas Kim Won Joon and Park So Hyun will be traveling to Kyung-Joo.

‘City Hunter’ airs its series finale

The popular SBS drama, ‘City Hunter‘, finally aired its series finale and wrapped up the fates of the three main characters, ‘Kim Na Na‘, ‘Lee Yoon Sung‘ and ‘Lee Jin Pyo‘.

On July 28th, the last episode of ‘City Hunter’ saw Lee Yoon Sung (Lee Min Ho) interfering with Lee Jin Pyo’s (Kim Sang Joong) final revenge on ‘Choi Eun Chan‘ (Chun Ho Jin).

Lee Yoon Sung was played into Lee Jin Pyo’s plan of revenge, and upon his discovery, he bellowed with sorrow and pointed his gun at his own head. In that moment, Choi Eun Chan yelled, “Stop it!

Choi Eun Chan knew he had to stand up for his punishment and so he pushed Kim Na Na (Park Min Young) aside, inviting Jin Pyo to fire at him, causing momentary confusion. Lee Jin Pyo seized the moment and fired a shot at Choi, only to see Lee Yoon Sung take the shot instead.

The surprised Kim Na Na returns fire and hits Lee Jin Pyo’s chest. After seeing the President getting ushered away by his guards and Yoon Sung lying hurt on the ground, Lee Jin Pyo knew that this was the end of his revenge as he yells out that he is the ‘City Hunter’ and takes the rap, before the remaining bodyguards shoot at Lee Jin Pyo, thus ending his life.

Afterwards, Kim Na Na is seen at the airport with her luggage when she glances upon the sight of Yoon Sung. After some twists and turns, the couple experience a happy ending as the two reunite, smiling warmly at each other upon the long-awaited reunion.

Lee Yoon Sung is then seen cruising alone in his car as it leads us to assume that he is continuing his destiny as ‘City Hunter’, and making a possibility for a sequel.
