While transsexual Lee Shiyeon is enjoying ~~his~~ her time in the limelight as a woman, Harisu’s dirty linen is getting strewn all over.

We all knew that beneath Harisu’s nip/tuck and whatnot, lies a man and that dormant man is now awake. According to passer-byers he/she’s been “hollering in a very masculine way” at her husband, Micky. Apparently, he’d been parking at such a slow pace that it got under her skin.

Somewhere along the way this celebrity couple swapped places between themselves. Poor Micky. Plucking up the courage to sacrifice his “manlihood” for a lifetime commitment was more than enough but now, he has to endure being man-handled by his wife.

Lee Dong-gun returns to his kpop roots

Published January 30, 2008 Lee Dong-gun 24 Comments

Newly single panda, Lee Dong-gun is returning to his kpop roots in Japan. After his highly publicized break-up, the singer turned actor is currently residing in Japan to prepare his Japanese single, scheduled to be released in March.

Lee Dong-gun debuted as a singer back in 1998, but after two albums, he called it quits. His official acting career started in 2003 with Lets go to School Sangdoo, and his latest endeavor was the hit movie Do You Live with Your Lover Now? with Han Chae Young and Uhm Jung Hwa.

Lee Dong-gun and Han Ji Hye seem to be putting a lot on their plates to go through their break-up, but don’t they know that there’s a much easier and convenient way? Befriending a pint of Ben & Jerry’s over a chic flick solves all my problems.

Thailand must be populated with millions of Elves and Cassiopeias if Super Junior and Dong Bang Shin Ki managed to get on the Channel V Thailand top charts.

Super Junior’s “Happiness” remake was #1 of the “Top 100 of 2007 International Chart” and Dong Bang Shin Ki singe “SHINE” was #1 of the “Top 10 of No.1 on Year Chart 2007.”

Good thing that I visited Thailand before the birth of POPSEOUL!

Jo In Sung lives in a cement closet

If you’ve ever wondered what type of house the stars lived in-look no further. The effeminate Jo In-sung lives in a cement closet ~~house~~ somewhere in Seoul (likely Kangnam). The exterior looks very cold and uninviting (as with most cement buildings) but the interior is thankfully a little warmer with the natural woods and beige walls. But the place looks so empty and devoid of life. Not a place I would want to live in.

Jo In-sung, is it lonely living in the closet?
