Im Seulong Clarifies That He Was Wrongly Accused of Yelling at His Manager

2AM’s Seulong was put in the awkward situation of having to explain himself for something that he didn’t do.

Recently, a photo was posted on a Facebook page with the captions, “What exactly did you do wrong?” The photo, showing tall man in a suit yelling at another, who looks scared, was tagged, “#Im Seulong from the back view.”

On June 4, the post gathered more attention as it made it onto popular online communities including Bestiz with the title, “Manager Being Scolded by Im Seulong.”

At the rumors, Im Seulong himself stepped in and posted on his Twitter, “Who is this [lol] This isn’t me. I’m not a bad person [lol]” and denied the accusations.

2AM's Jinwoon currently has a one-sided crush on someone?

2AM's Jinwoon made a surprise reveal about his love life in the latest episode of MBC' 'Quiz to Change the World - Finding Friends'!

The MC's asked Jinwoon, "We heard you're having a fiery love these days." Jinwoon replied, "Well, we're not sharing the love," insinuating that his love is one-sided.

The MC's asked, "Does she know you like her?", and in response, he said, "I'm not sure about that."

When they continued to pry for more information by asking, "Is she a celebrity or non-celebrity?" Jinwoon cut them off humorously remarking, "You can't ask that."

He also revealed on the show that he hopes to marry before the age of 30, which leaves us to wonder if he has future plans in mind with this woman he's crushing on

Fashion Faceoff: Seulong Vs. Do Sang Woo In Burberry Coat

2AM's (denial) Seulong and actor Do Sang Woo wore the same Burberry coat - but who wore it better?

by kpopbreak

 

In the last (male) Fashion Faceoff, Jung Il Woo faced male model Go Jae Cheon in the battle of the striped Loewe shirt. Jung won with 65% of the votes, proving that buttoning up your collar in a preppie manner is the way to go. For this week’s battle, it’s all about the lettering. 2AM‘s (don’t correct me on this please) Seulong and Fashion Faceoff veteran Do Sang Woo (this is his third fight) wore the same Burberry book cover print cotton silk caban from the brand’s Spring 2015 collection.

According to Burberry, “Inspired by vintage book covers, the artwork is hand-painted in our studio before being screen-printed onto the lightweight fabric. Adjustable cuff tabs and a martingale reference designs from the Burberry Heritage Archive.” The typographic piece is currently 50% off and can be yours for $1,250.

Seulong modeled the coat in the June issue of Singles. He finished off his look with a casual t-shirt and dark slacks from the same Burberry Spring runway show. Meanwhile, Do had a more casual approach in the February issue of Allure. He wore a white dress shirt with a jean jacket and pants, before leaning against a motorcycle in the middle of the road.

So, who wore it better? Vote for your favorite below!

“Dream Team” to Collaborate With China and Thailand for Remake, Starring EXO’s Xiumin, SHINee’s Minho, IU, and More

Chinese and Thai production teams will be working with producers of the variety show “Dream Team” to create a spin-off of their own.

According to an affiliate of KBS, the Korean-Chinese remake of “Dream Team” will have 10 episodes in total, four of which will be aired in both China and Korea. The Korean-Thai collaboration will have 13 episodes, and three of them will be aired in Korea.

The Chinese production team is planning to film in Korea and will start on July 22 and 23. They were originally planning to come in June, but the MERSsituation made it hard for the crew to gather top Chinese stars and they had to postpone it for a month.

There also seems to be a star-studded cast for those representing the Korean team of “Dream Team.” EXO‘s Xiumin, 2PM‘s Nichkhun and Chansung,SHINee‘s Minho, Super Junior‘s Eunhyuk, 2AM‘s Jinwoon and Jo Kwon, Brown Eyed Girls‘ Ga In, EXID‘s Hani, FTISLAND‘s Lee Hongki, CNBLUE‘sJung Yonghwa, and IU are some of the possible cast members that will go against Chinese stars, who haven’t been chosen yet.

The first episode of the Korean-Chinese remake is planned to air on August 22 in China, and August 23 in Korea.

The Korean-Thai remake will start filming around September, and the Thai crew states that it also has a great line up of stars prepared.

Chinese spin-offs of other Korean shows such as “Running Man” and “I Am a Singer” have proven to be great success in China, which is part of the reason why the production teams have recruited such top-stars for “Dream Team.”

2AM's Changmin reveals his ridiculously high drinking tolerance

2AM's Changmin and Lee Hyun not only collaborate together as Homme, but they're also drinking buddies!

On the June 29th episode of KBS' 'Hello Counselor', the duo talked about what happens when the two go out to drink. The MC's asked, "What do you do when you don't have a schedule?" Lee Hyun replied, "On our resting days, I drink with Changmin. He drinks so much beer."

When asked what his tolerance was, Changmin replied, "I can drink about 20 glasses of 500ml of beer," which shocked the audience and other guests. Lee Hyun added, "At one pub, they ran out of beer [because of him]." We don't know if that's impressive or insane! During the broadcast, it looked like AOA's Mina was leaning towards the latter.

Lee Hyun said, "Changmin's drunk habits is aegyo. Whenever he drinks, he has so much aegyo it's burdensome," he said while laughing.

What do you think of Changmin's drinking tolerance and drunk habits?

Seulong is the definition of chic in avant garde 'W' pictorial

Seulong is taking the daring leap into a solo music career, departing for a little while from his fellow 2AM members. Fashion magazine 'W' featured the artist in their July issue, parading a sharply chic avant garde side to him never before seen. 

The 2AM member is the height of high fashion in the photos, his chiseled features accentuated with a dramatic hairstyle parted down the middle and some bold contouring. Seulong also discussed his upcoming solo album in a detailed interview, stating that although he really likes ballads, the album derives more inspiration from the R&B genre. Because this is his first album, the singer inevitably nursed some doubts, as he confessed that the responsibility and stress were great. However, he is just happy that he was able to finish what he started. 

You can read more about the singer's story and view his sleek black and white photos in the July edition of 'W'. Meanwhile, get a sneak peek at the pictorial below!

2AM's Seulong Explains The Process Behind His 'Normal' Solo Release In W Korea Interview

Singer Seulong participated in an artistic black-and-white pictorial for the July issue of W Korea. The handsome idol wore monochromatic combinations by brands like Dior Homme in a minimalistic studio. The photos then had a ripped page filter applied that elegantly separated the images into different parts.

During the accompanying interview, the star discussed the production process of his single album Normal. The project was especially meaningful since it was the first album he released after leaving JYP Entertainment. "I was directly involved with the whole song writing and producing process, even the music video production," he said. "This was a new experience for me in many ways."

He added, "I felt a great sense of responsibility. But I had to put that behind me since I voluntarily put myself in this position. Of course, even though I was stressed it was very enjoyable."

Seulong also talked about the professionalism between the 2AM members when it came to their careers together. He explained, "We fulfilled our contracts and properly worked together, separated, and maintained a good relationship. I don't care about groundless rumors."

When asked to choose his favorite vacationing destination, he chose Northern Europe. He explained, "The Netherlands is a great place to relax. I go to galleries, museums, restaurants. If I'm not shopping, I'm resting."

SISTAR’s Dasom and 2AM’s Jinwoon Start a Love Line on “Law of the Jungle?”

On the July 3 episode of SBS’s “Law of the Jungle,” Kim Byung Man, Ryu Dam, Yoon Sang Hyun, Bae Soo Bin, Lee Jung Jin, Eun Ji Won, Park Han Byul, SISTAR’s Dasom, and 2AM’s Jinwoon brave a typhoon.

Prior to arriving in Yap, Dasom and Jinwoon bond before and during their flight. She comments, “Fans were worried we would have a love line since we are going together.”

She says, “Don’t worry,” to reassure 2AM and SISTAR fans. However, the pair engage in skinship as they flick each other’s foreheads. It appears as though they have gotten friendly quite quickly.

Then SISTAR member proceeds to whisper into Jinwoon’s ear which makes him exclaim, “Do you know what Dasom just said?” His words make her try to cover his mouth resulting in a funny situation.

Also, Jinwoon has an interesting conversation with her mother on the phone in which he promises to take care of Dasom during the trip.

Is this the beginning of a love line?

2AM’s Jinwoon Reveals SISTAR Dasom’s Weight on “Law of the Jungle”

The upcoming episode of SBS’s “Law of the Jungle” shows 2AM’s Jinwoonholding up SISTAR’s Dasom on his shoulders.

After Dasom expresses her desire to pick some fruits from a tree, Jinwoon offers his shoulders and says, “Since it’s dangerous you should sit on my shoulders.” After feeling a bit embarrassed Dasom decides to take him up on his offer.

Feeling the strain, Jinwoon comments, “Dasom weighs 52 kilograms.” Surprised by his frank comment, the SISTAR member replies, “No~ I weigh 49 kilograms.” This makes Ryu Dam say, “When women say they weigh 49 kilograms, it means they weigh over 50 kilograms.”

When Ryu Dam asks the 2AM member about Dasom’s weight again Jinwoon answers, “Dasom is light. I think she weighs 46 kilograms.” It appears as though their love line is saved by his new statement and the atmosphere remains lively and cheerful.

This episode of “Law of the Jungle” will broadcast on July 10 at 10 p.m. KST.

2AM’s Jinwoon Gets Harshly Criticized By Kids Over His Drawing Skills on “Off to School”

On July 14′s episode of “Off to School,” 2AM‘s Jinwoon is stunned by the merciless way that some elementary school students respond to his artwork!

Jinwoon and M.I.B‘s Kangnam lead a small art class of only three kids on Jeju Island. They teach the kids how to use circles, triangles, and squares to depict whatever they can imagine.

Kangnam finishes a drawing using only circles, and Jinwoon holds it up while saying to the kids, “Kangnam has drawn a cute pig!”

Kangnam looks over and says dryly, “It’s a bear though,” which makes the kids laugh.

Jinwoon then asks the kids to draw their dream house, and he does the same. When he’s done, he proudly shows it off to the students.

The reception isn’t what he expected though, as one of the kids asks him, “Is that a barn?” He tries to defend his artwork, saying that there’s a tree and a yard, but another kid laughs and interrupts him by saying, “Is it a construction site?”

“You’re so harsh,” replies Jinwoon, but the kids continue to insist that it’s a barn.

In comparison, the students right away recognize that Kangnam has drawn a picture of Hawaii.

When asked whether they think Jinwoon or Kangnam is the better artist, two out of three kids reply “Kangnam!” without any hesitation whatsoever.

Check out more of their lesson in July 14′s episode of “Off to School”!
