Celebs put on their best hanboks to celebrate the New Lunar Year

Jewelry_20080206_popseoul

Hanbok, the Korean traditional dress is worn during the holidays and although the practice is becoming obsolete in modern day Korea, it’s great seeing celebs embracing our culture to its fullest.

On sul-nal, Koreans typically eat ddok-guk, rice cake soup in the morning. Then families gather to bow to elders in return for allowance. This is the best time of the year for underaged kids, but once you reach the legal drinking age, it ain’t so fun anymore, for you are expected to cough up some dough for the youngins in your family.

Happy New Lunar Year!

Check out other lovely hanboks worn by celebs.

Joo has been cherry picked

200802042joo

The JYP produced Joo picks up 2 awards-the Best Artist of the Month and Rookie of the Month award for her single, “Because of a Man” (trans: 남자 때문에) at the Cyworld Digital Music Awards held at the Coex Grand Conference Room in Samsung-dong on January 4th, 2008.

Two awards after a 2 week debut. That must be a record.

And check out the woman trying to maintain her cute image with her innocent cherry print dress. Er hm, no need for the false facade, since it’s likely that her cherry has already been picked.

Congratulations

Is this the end of Joo?

JYP’s latest product, Joo will not become the next ballad sensation as anticipated, not because she is ugly and lacks the vocal talent, but because of her scandalous past.

Right after her debut, pictures from her “dark high school days” spread across the web, tarnishing the “innocent” image JYP set to create. And today, a sticker picture of Joo and her boyfriend kissing was unleashed, disappointing many fans who actually believed her words when she said “Although my title song, “Because of Men” is a good song, I cannot relate because I never cried because of a man.” Well, that’s because she probably made them cry.

Smoking, drinking, hanging out with the wrong crowd and kissing your boyfriend might have been forgivable if Joo didn’t sell market herself as an “innocent” angel. Too bad that JYP and Joo weren’t equipped with common sense and morals when producing her first single.
