HOT NEWS : B2ST's Junhyung and KARA's Hara in a relationship!!

It has been confirmed that B2ST's Junhyung and KARA's Hara had been dating!! 

Cube Entertainment announced that, “They had a senior/ junior relationship until they began dating. They’ve been dating for about a month now. When Hara was going through some difficult times, Junhyung consoled her. Because of their busy schedules, they’ve only been able to go out to eat and other dating activities three times so far.”

DSP Media also announced, “They do have good feelings towards one another, but they’re still getting to know each other. It’s only been a month so far. Please watch over them for a bit more.”
An acquaintance of them said, “The KARA and B2ST members are all close to one another because they’ve been promoting around the same time. They depend on and look to each other for consolation. Ahead of their Japanese comeback, their relationship has gotten a lot deeper through support meetings.”


On the morning of 9th June, the day Junhyung returned from B2ST Japanese concert, they were seen dating confidently, drinking coffee in a cafe in Kangnam and drove around the area before parking near Junhyung's house. The two walked for about an hour around the neighbourhood before parting ways at the 'Sky Park' in Sangam-dong.


They meet up again on 13th June in the early morning and walk together around the back alleys in Hongdae. Amazingly, they didn't even try to cover up who they really are as Hara would roll down the window in the car and stick her face out of the window to watsh the night view.

B2ST took care for their fans by preparing special 'support present'

The members of B2ST prepared a special surprise gift for their fans to celebrate their successful 'Fiction and Fact' album promotions. They won a total of 8 awards during a month of the promotion which can be said really incredible.

More than 1000 fans gathered during their last promotion performance on SBS' 'Inkigayo' and to repay the dedication of their fans, they decided to prepare special gifts for them.

The gifts are specially designed by them protruding personally designed stickers such as “Paid For by Chief Yoon.” and  “God Dongwoon’s Surprise Attack”.

Surprised fans commented back, “How is it possible to not like them when they do fan service like this”,and “B2ST loves their fans so much!”

SHINee in London for their 'Japan Debut Premium Reception'

After performing in Paris a little over a week ago, SHINee hit Europe once again, but this time they headed for London!

When SHINee landed in the airport at London on June 18th, they were received with much welcome from their European fans, further proving their international fame beyond Asia.

So why are the boys in London?

Not for another SMTOWN Live concert, sadly. However, SHINee fans will be able to see the boys at the Abbey Road Studios on the 19th at 3 PM for their special Japanese debut live event, called “Japan Debut Premium Reception in London“. SHINee is scheduled to perform their Japanese debut single ‘Replay‘ on this day.

When the quintet landed in London, fans reportedly welcomed SHINee with much enthusiasm. Much like your typical fan girls, SHINee’s European fans came ready with their individual names on placards and were screaming ‘oppa’ out of joy. Although there is a significant cultural difference between Europe and Korea, it seems as if fan girl-ism translates the same throughout all parts of the world.

In regards to their airport fashion, the SHINee boys came out of the airport looking quite trendy with sunglasses and hats – an airport staple for any celebrity – paired along with simple outfits. While walking out of the airport, it was also reported that members Key and Jonghyun gave a little fan service to their dedicated fans by looking towards the cameras as fans snapped away.

While the event is a great opportunity for SHINee’s European fans to connect with the five, SMTOWN knows that many will not be able to attend for whatever circumstance. Therefore, they will be updating their Facebook page during the event, so make sure you check out their Facebook!

In response to this, he had expressed regrets about withdrawing from the show. He confessed that he regrets having to leave even though he felt sheer pressure contesting against his peers in the show. The production crew and lots of fans were also disappointed by his withdrawal. The producer added that Yoseob had been working really hard on the show as he can't memorize the lyrics easily.

Yoseob stated, “The pressure I felt from ‘Immortal Song ‘2 was no small thing. I don’t know how the other idol singers felt, but I was very worried and burdened. I couldn’t even sleep at night.When we decided on the withdrawal, I did feel some relief. It was too nerve-wracking and burdensome. However, at the same time, I felt regret. I don’t think I was able to show my all. If another opportunity came by to be on the show again, I would definitely take it. I think I will. I want to show different sides of myself. New contestant Lee Hongki called me about it, and it reminded me of when I started.”


Fellow B2ST member Son Dongwoon added,"Even though we knew the results, we were still nervous. We told him that even if he were to land in last place, he was still in the top 6 among idol singers".

B2ST - Kikwang responds on popularity difference

Nowadays, members of B2ST had been busy promoting their latest album 'Fiction and Fact' and the title song, 'Fiction' is a hit among B2UTYs. Besides being busy with the promotion, they also involved in solo activities. Kikwang is steadily MCing KBS's "Win Win", Doojoon acted in drama "All My Love" and Yoseob is spectacularly showing off his great vocal talent in KBS's "Immortal Song 2".

Fans and netizens had been comparing the popularity difference between the members and wondered whether these could cause conflicts between them. In response to this, member, Kikwang responds to this statement.

Kikwang said, “I did think that as B2ST was getting more popular, and as our personal activities increased, that there could become a difference between the more popular members and the less popular members. Since we’re only human, I felt that we might be jealous or get discouraged. So we already said [at the start], ‘Let’s not get upset, jealous, or fight over more or less popularity".


This shows that B2ST members are able to discuss issues between them and are very able to solve them.
