2PM becomes first artist from JYP Entertainment to hold concert in Philippines

2PM became the first artist from JYP Entertainment to have their own concert in the Philippines!

On March 2nd, the boys kicked off their highly anticipated ‘2PM LIVE TOUR 2013 What Time Is It‘ Asian Tour in Manila at the Mall of Asia Arena. As expected there was heavy demand for media access and nearly 100 members from the local media were in attendance.

The ‘What Time Is It?‘ tour started in 2012, and last year the boys performed in Shanghai, Jakarta, Taiwan, and Macau. As a formal way to begin the second iteration of the tour, 2PM held a press conference on the 1st but due to prior obligations member Chansung was unable to attend.

One of the most memorable stages from the concert was Wooyoung‘s stage of “Tong Tong Tong Tong Pakitong-Kitong“, a children’s song in Tagalog.

2PM said, “We held the first concert of our 2013 Asia tour in Manila. We were so touched by the warm welcome and cheers from our fans, they gave us their love. Thank you.”

The boys will continue their tour in Guangzhou, China on March 30 and in Bangkok, Thailand on April 8.

TVXQ to make cameo appearance in Japanese drama

TVXQ will make their Japanese drama debut through a cameo appearance on the Fuji TV drama ‘Saki‘!

Both members are active in the Korean drama scene, but while Changmin had acted in a Japanese movie, he had never participated in a Japanese drama. The pair received the offer to cameo in the drama after the director of ‘Saki’ requested it on the spot when Changmin and Yunho visited the filming set.

They will play the role of two men eating cake in a cafe. Because of the sudden request, they weren’t given any lines and they impressed with their impromptu performance.

This is good timing for TVXQ as they’ll be soon releasing their new Japanese album ‘TIME‘ on the 6th, and will have their 5-dome tour in Japan starting from April 27.

Onew has a case of ‘Onew Condition’ on Twitter

Most Shawol’s are familiar with the term ‘Onew Condition‘ – for those who aren’t, it’s when the leader ofSHINee finds himself in a hilariously awkward situation that he usually creates for himself.

Well, the ‘Onew Condition’ has struck again! While idols tweeting their thoughts and talking to each other on Twitter are common, Onew has brought a new type into the mix: a conversation with himself.

The conversation started innocently enough when he tweeted, “I remembered. I get surprised because my hands are cold“. In a bizarre turn of events, perhaps to explain himself, he talked to himself and wrote, “No, no. Someone asked me if I can’t touch radishes..“.

He continued on by replying to himself again as he wrote, “My knees mind is blown“, and then replied again, “No, no. It’s not that it hurts ㅠㅜ“. He finally concluded the strange conversation with “I don’t know. Good night^^^^^^^^^^^^“.

What do you think Onew was trying to say?
