T-Ara’s HyoMin: From Singer to Stylist?

T-Ara’s HyoMin transforms from singer to stylist for her fellow group member EunJung!

Also known as T-Ara’s ‘fashion icon, as well as for her eye-catching style, it seems member Hyomin is expressing her interest in fashion in more ways than one.

She has become an official head-to-toe stylist for her fellow member EunJung, who is currently starring in SBS‘ drama ‘Coffee House‘!

A representative from T-Ara’s management company revealed information on this saying,” From the 8th episode onward, HyoMin will be responsible for Ham EunJung’s head-to-toe fashion.”

HyoMin also took on the task of giving EunJung’s character in ‘Coffee House‘, named Kang SeungYeon, a full make-over, and went so far as to hand pick all the clothes, shoes, and accessories.

Here are some pictures of HyoMin at work. Check it out:

According to the representative,” After she started watching ‘Coffee House’, HyoMin came and expressed her interest in styling EunJung. Also, this past holiday, she worked with EunJung from 3 p.m to 5 a.m, a total of 14 hours, and went to various places, shopping for hats, clothes, and even preparing shoes that would match with EunJung’s character.”

Meanwhile, other T-Ara members are busy with their own personal activities. While EunJung is busy with ‘Coffee House‘, Ji Yeon with ‘Death Bell 2‘, and HyoMin with preparations to star in a drama and other performing arts activities, it seems this girl group has their plate full.

That's time..^^

And very excited.. Though also had blunders.. It was still a really happy trip..^^

Seriously..

Me as a person like Kim KyuJong. To be an idol singer was my dream.

Because I wanted to fulfil this dream.. Beginning since my middle school days,
I already began auditioning here and there..^^

Since then along with our members, we practised together.. stood on the stage together..
Moments spent just like a dream..^^ As time passes, many memories really began to surface
today, isn't it?..

Really wanted to always show the good performances of ours, the side that's much more amazing
than any others'.. Though still very much lacking in abit here and there..^^
To have to work much harder too, I know that well by heart too.
Really very thankful for your love showed to me and our members.
Since when.. 5 years flowed by like a course so quickly.. We even go to the tv stations,
and from that, we are no longer maknaes ne..hh

Amazing..^^ As time flows by so quickly.. Our pretties too..

Some have attended school.. Graduated.. Employed.. And even some, to be married soon..^^

Feels really wonderful! Been hearing only good news that's why..^^
In future too,

Study hard, Work hard,
Since you had met a good person, treat him/her well and treat your marriage well..
If so, that'd be great!

When our pretties deliver good news, that's when I feel the best..^^ Hee..

Many things that I wish to say, many things that I wish to tell you.. Aigu what's this nya
Don't even know what to write..

Just..thanks ^^ hh
Pretty pealings (green peas).. Really pretty pealings..^^
Happy day.. Let's all congratulate together!!

Heh heh!! Have to go sleep now~~ There's schedule tomorrow, have to go and sleep !!^^

SS501’s Fans Surprise Them

Idol group SS501 recently celebrated their 5th anniversary on May 30th. Their fans were with them for their celebration and gave the band a surprise that left them feeling touched and thankful.

SS501 has recently been busy with a series of fan-signs which they held so that they could repay the love they received from their fans. Their fan-signs were on the 28th, 29th, and the 30th. They also held two fan-signs on the 29th in the provinces of Busan and Daegu in order to make sure that as much of their fan base in South Korea could be with them.

The fan-sign on the 30th was the commemoration fan-sign held at KBS’s 88 gymnasium sports hall which commemorated the group’s 5th anniversary. What SS501 thought would be just a regular fan-sign ended with a surprise for them. As the fan-sign came to an end, the fans threw a surprise party for the group! The fans had already prepared a cake in advance which they presented to the group, and they also sang SS501’s song Warning (SS501’s debut song) together.

This party was a way for the fans to congratulate their beloved group for their 5th year together since their debut as well as to celebrate leader Kim HyunJoong’s birthday which is coming up on June 6th. SS501 expressed their deep gratitude towards their fans for this pleasant and completely unexpected celebration.

Isn’t the fan-idol relationship really sweet? Hopefully, SS501 will be receiving the same amount of love from their fans when they comeback on KBS2’s Music Bank on June 4th with their new song Love Ya!
