On September 20th, T-ara‘s Eunjung and Hyomin left for Thailand through Incheon Airport to attend the press conference for ETN‘s audition program, ‘Global Super Idol‘.

Eunjung also showed off her chic fashion sense with a black and beige trench coat. The broad black strip drew emphasis to her slender legs, and she kept her accessories simple to match the elegant look of her outfit. Keeping it simple with a neutral palette of beige, white, and black, Eunjung added a youthful touch by dabbing on a light pink lipcolor.

The program will take place in both Thailand and China and the final will unfold in Korea. ETN’s global audition program will begin its global broadcast on October.

Will High Kick 3 be able to continue the series success as a sitcom?

‘The sitcom genius’, PD Kim Byoung Wook‘s newest project is MBC‘s High Kick 3 . The script is byLee Young Chul, Hong Bo Hee, Jang Jin Ah, and Baek Sun Woo. The sitcom is directed by Kim Byoung Wook, Kim Young Ki, and Cho Chan Joo. High Kick 3 tells the chaotic story of a middle-class family who has filed for bankruptcy. The pilot episode aired on the 19th, and it is receiving praise for being an all-inclusive sitcom with comedy, action, and drama.

The story of the pilot episode took place in the futuristic year of 2052, and they opened up with an elderly person introducing their book, ‘High Kick, counterattack of the short legs‘.
The elderly person continued to narrate the story and it began with, “2011 was a year in which everyone was driven by financial wealth…” They ‘went back in time’ to 2011, and the camera focused in onYoon Kye Sang‘s older sister, Yoo Sun (An Yoo Sun), and Nae Sang (Ahn Nae Sang), a married couple.

It is YooSun’s birthday and it is also the day their son Jong Suk (Kim Jong Suk) has an important ice hockey match, while their daughter Soo Jung (Krystal) was also scheduled to return home. But Nae Sang is betrayed by a friend on this day and loses everything he has in an instant. In order to run from his creditors, he grabs his wife receiving a birthday massage, his son from his vital hockey match, and his daughter who has just landed at the airport and quickly heads for… anywhere.

When they finally come to their senses after their escape, they realize that all of their credit cards have been cancelled and so they use the few dollars their daughter has in her pocket to buy choco pies to substitute for a birthday cake. But when they go to light the candles, firecrackers go off instead of candles with one firecracker attached to Nae Sang’s bottom, and off he went, high into the night sky with a loud scream. With that, the pilot episode of High Kick 3 came to a close.

The first episode contains an intense car-chase scene where the family is running from their debtors along with some other action scenes and it also provides some comic relief with the scene of Nae Sang flying into the night sky with a firecracker attached to his behind.

The character line up is also impressive. Yoon Kye Sang plays the role of a professional doctor who steps down from a major hospital to do volunteer work, Lee Juk who starts a proctological surgery business in an attempt to make big money but fails and as a result is suffering from depression, Kim Ji Won who plays the role of a high school students that refuses to be tied down, and Seo Ji Sukplays the role of a simple and ignorant gym teacher.

After viewing the first episode, do you think High Kick 3 can continue the series success as a sitcom?
