Tiffany and Nichkhun go their separate ways

'Smiling eyes' Girls' Generation member Tiffany and 'beast' idol 2PM's Nichkhun made headlines when their relationship was first announced to the public. Now, a year and five months after making their relationship public, they are making headlines yet again for a reason that may come as a disappointment for some and a boon for others. The two starlets decided to go their separate ways and have parted amicably. Both SM Entertainment and JYP Entertainment have confirmed the validity of the breakup, after checking with their respective artists. The main reasons for the split were the typical 'busy schedule,' and 'no adequate time to spend with one another,' which comes as no surprise as many idols are worked through and through, to the point of exhaustion. Though this is disheartening news as the idols made such a cute couple, they are still good friends and it won't be the last time they see one another.

SM & YG continue to tease us

Dear EXO fans, no need to hold your horses any longer; let them loose and run free. What do I mean? Feel free to let your inner fangirl/fanboy explode with uncontrollable excitement and glee and let the 'feels' take over! Your favorite boys in the entire world--no, scratch that--the entire universe have announced the release date for their repackage album of 'EXODUS,' which will be titled 'Love Me Right.' The repackage album is said to contain four new tracks, with the title track being the same as the album title. The group also heightened anticipation with various teaser images which I'm sure you either joyously cried or drooled over. In the group teaser photos the members are decked out in football gear, giving some hint as to what the theme for their new song will be. Be sure to also tune in for all four of EXO's comeback stages, the first of which will air on 'M! Countdown' on June 4.

EXO wasn't the only group that had fans stirring with excitement. VIPs can hardly contain their emotions what with the announcement of Big Bang's second portion of the 'MADE' project. The first part 'M,' was already revealed earlier this month with the release of two tracks, "Loser," and "Bae Bae." 'A' is the second part in the series, and the boys have already teased us with promotional images for the new songs which are titled "Bang Bang Bang" and "We Like 2 Party." The new tracks are expected to drop online on June 1 at midnight so you better be on the lookout!

KARA members are sexy 'CUPID's in their comeback

The stunningly beautiful ladies of KARA shot arrows of love right through everyone's hearts with their comeback song "CUPID"! In the MV, the girls look gorgeous and perfect as usual but unfortunately, the MV lacks a clear plot. Throughout the video we get to witness the group pose and dance provocatively for the camera, but I couldn't make sense of the video no matter how many time I replayed it. There are snippets of a dapper young man puzzling over a tiny present which he never got to open because he was assassinated by a rose that was shot through his heart. That scene baffled me a bit, as his presence didn't seem to play an incredibly significant role in the overall story of the MV. But my little drivel matters not as the song itself is very catchy and I'm sure Kamilias are just happy that their favorite girls finally returned. On a related note, you can check out my review of KARA's album here.

Yoo Seung Joon is heard cursing and B-Free & J. Yoon add their two cents to controversy

It seems Yoo Seung Joon isn't so sincere in his remorse about evading military service thirteen years back. Though the singer stepped on his own ego to beg for quarter from the Korean public, now it may be even harder for him to be accepted back into Korean society due to his recent unacceptable behavior on his second live broadcast. In said broadcast, the singer is heard letting out a stream of expletives near the end, completely unaware that his mic was still on. His acts of repentance and all that crying have all been for naught, poor man.

Interestingly enough, Yoo Seung Joon seems to have some people that, though not his close allies, appear to at least sympathize with him. Rapper B-Free and MC the Max's singer J. Yoon voiced their own opinions on the matter right on their personal social media accounts, and they both disapproved of the country's intense reactions to the whole controversy. To summarize, B-Free (who by the way already served in the military) openly scorned the Department of Defense for its harsh verdict regarding Yoo Seung Joon. J. Yoon was a bit more subtle in his criticism as he didn't attack anyone outright but simply commented that the whole situation is 'ridiculous,' and that Korea is a 'dirty place' for sensationalizing this issue to such an extreme degree.

Song Joong Ki returns to life as an actor

Beloved-by-all actor Song Joong Ki has finally returned to our field of vision after having completed his mandatory military service! During an interview after his official discharge ceremony, the actor confessed that Lee Kwang Soo was his savior and light that lent him strength while he was serving in the army. The actor's confession comes as no surprise as the two have become quite the buddies on Running Man.

Song Joong Ki already has various gigs lined up including an offer to feature in a film, a role in upcoming KBS2 drama 'Descendants of the Sun,' and ad endorsements.

A memorial concert to be held for deceased Ladies' Code members RiSe and EunB in Japan

It has been a little over half a year since the tragic accident which took the lives of Ladies' Code members RiSe and EunB. News has leaked recently that in order to honor the two members' memories, a tribute concert will be held on August 22 in Tokyo, Japan. The concert, titled 'RiSe and EunB Memorial Concert,' was planned to fulfill the wish of RiSe who had hoped to hold a Ladies' Code concert at a big stadium in Japan--the country that she was born and raised in. Polaris Entertainment, the agency the girl group is under, stated that other Polaris artists will help prepare and facilitate the tribute concert. Reps from the agency also reported of a possible comeback from the group but nothing--including when and how the group will make their return--has been confirmed. For now, the members are resting, spending time with one another, and diligently practicing for their future return.

Song Jae Rim and Kim So Eun will indeed depart from WGM

Rumors were circulating that the Song Jae Rim and Kim So Eun couple shot their last 'We Got Married' episode on May 20, but a PD from the show initially refuted those rumors. However, as it turns out, the couple will indeed be leaving the show for good. Kim So Eun's agency Fantagio released an official statement to Newsen which related the reason for the actress's departure, which is that she needs to focus more on her filming for the upcoming fantasy-historical drama 'Scholar Who Walks the Night.' A PD from WGM also confirmed the couple's departure by stating that the couple will be leaving sometime next month. Don't be too sad though because there is still one more episode to be filmed featuring the adorable couple!

In more WGM news…

Yewon shocked everyone on a recent episode of WGM by planting a wet smooch on her pretend-beau Henry. After committing the dirty deed, the actress couldn't even look at Henry straight in the eye and bashfully buried her face in Henry's arms. AWWWWWW. Yewon, you don't need to be so embarrassed; it's only natural that you want to physically express your love for your husband--though he may not be your actual husband. Just look at this opportunity as good practice for the future when you get married for real.
