Heechul reveals his decision to leave 'Ssul Jeon'


Super Junior's Heechul has decided to leave his current JTBC variety program, 'Ssul Jeon,' as it was becoming too difficult for him to discuss his friends in public. 

After wrapping up the recording for 'Ssul Jeon' on July 14, he wrote on Instagram, "It was really difficult talking about people I know on TV.  If I do the broadcast, I hurt the people around me, but if I protect those people, I harm the broadcast.  I was unable to become cool-headed.  In the end, after thinking about it a lot, I felt this mental burden, 'Since I can't do it right, I should just leave,' and told the 'Ssul Jeon' team, who understand my concerns very well and said they would miss me.

To the audience members who were hurt by my words, I doubt I can wash away everything that happened through saying sorry, but I will keep everything that happened forever in my heart, so that I will watch what I say and be more careful on TV."

What are you thoughts on his decision to leave the show?

EXO-K's Chanyeol gets the girl in new 'Nature Republic' CF


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GFAxu1u2CWg

EXO-K had hearts beating a little faster as fangirls squealed with delight or perhaps with jealous rage throughout their latest 'Nature Republic' CF!

The members showed the different ways that they might get close with the girl of their dreams with Sehun giving eye contact, D.O. flashing his irresistible smile, Suho hugging,Baekhyun teasing, Kai confessing, and Chanyeol on the verge of kissing - acting out fans' fantasies.

However, the CF ended with a hilarious twist, as it turned out the message was that with any of these activities, a girl will be providing a guy a close look at her pesky blackheads and enlarged pores on her nose! So to help keep things clean and flawless, the boys promote Nature Republic's Nose & T-Zone mask that draws out impurities for a clean T-zone!

Each member also gets their own solo ending. This time it's Chanyeol who gets to feature at the end of he CF.

Check out the CF above!

'Roommate' talks about their decision to air Park Min Woo dozing off at the wheel


SBS' 'Roommate' talked about their decision to air Park Min Woo dozing off at the wheel!

On the 13th's episode of the show, Park Min Woo was shown getting into the car while he was incredibly tired. However, he had to take the wheel because no one else could drive, and he ended up dozing off at the wheel, almost causing a car accident as the car drifted to the guard rails.

Many viewers couldn't understand the staff's decision to air that segment, as it could have very negative impacts on Park Min Woo's image. The PD explained to Star News, "During yesterday's broadcast, Park Min Woo drove while his leg hurt. Even though he didn't sleep properly, he volunteered to drive a trailer because Seo Kang Jun wasn't good at driving. We hope people don't misunderstand because of a short clip that was on broadcast."

Do you think they should have aired him falling asleep at the wheel?

T-ara's Hyomin strikes a chic pose in Osaka



T-ara's Hyomin showed off her fashionista side during a trip to Japan!

"In Osaka," she posted to Twitter earlier today. Hyomin seems to be getting in touch with her chic urban side - her boots and chapeau is a perfect fit on the streets of the city!

Her freshly-cut hair for 'Nice Body' promotions and the pair of sunglasses round out an excellent set of fashion decisions, complemented by the shoulder bag which adds a splash of light to an otherwise dark outfit.

A drowsy Park Min Woo nearly crashes the car on 'Roommate'


Park Min Woo's driving nearly caused a catastrophic accident on 'Roommate'!

Looking distinctly tired as he got behind the wheel with several of his roommates, he reassured them that he was fine. "Don't worry, we're not going to get into an accident," he told them. 

However, as his yawns increased and the car began drifting, his roommates got more worried. "We'll switch when we get to a rest area," said Seo Kang Joon in the passenger seat. However, Park Min Woo declined, saying that he was fine.

However, despite his reassurances, the car started drifting toward the guardrail once more, and Park Min Woo didn't respond to being tapped on the shoulder - he was drowsing! Fortunately, seconds before the car would've hit the rails, he was knocked awake and quickly corrected his steering.

"If there was a hole, I would've hidden in it," he said during an interview later. "I was so sorry and apologetic. It was my firest experience with something like that, so I didn't know how to react. I couldn't look my roommates in the eyes." He also apologized profusely after they safely arrived at their destination.

There's a valuable lesson to be learned here - don't drive if you're sleepy!

'Roommate' is in danger with another controversy


SBS's variety show "Roommate" is in danger with another controversy and keep getting low ratings since first episode.

According to Nielson Korea, the viewer ratings of 'Roommatelatest episode broadcasted on the 13th was 4.9%, recorded its lowest rate that day, as decreasing 0.4% point. SBS's average ratings for the whole programs of "Good sunday" is 6.3%, far lower than KBS2 ‘Happy Sunday’(12.2%) and MBC ‘Sunday, Sunday Night’(9.1%). 

This poor ratings result is caused by many controversies in ‘Roommate’. 2NE1 member Park Bom has recently got into her own "drugscandal" but her appearance was still aired without editing, making viewers angry. In the latest episode, 'Roommate' became the center of the controversy again as Park Min Woo fell asleep while driving car and nearly caused an accident. Another member Seo Kang Joonwho sat in the passenger seat didn’t tie the seat belt. All of these problems made viewers turn their back on 'Roommate".

Roommate’ are facing its biggest crisis ever. What do you think about the future of this show?
