KOR – ENG: Egle @2pmalways 2PM releases the long hoped-for 2nd album “LEGEND OF 2PM”
With 2-day concerts set for the desirable Tokyo Dome in April, the group keeps on developing
An entertaining talk about the album that gives us a glimpse of how good the relationships between the members are
Q: This album contains 4 previously released singles and as many as 9 new songs. You probably like all the songs, but if you were to pick one that you like the most?
Wooyoung: For me that’s I’ll be OK, because the lyrics are very good. It’s not a song about a general sweet love story or a sad broken-hearted romance. It’s a song about a positive break-up, when you choose to break up with the person you love, so that she could follow her dream. I think the song would become even more hopeful if we could sing it together with the fans during a concert… So it’s a song I look forward to.

Kor-Eng: Egle @2pmalways | Raw & Scans: MATLEJANG MAY BE TAKEN OUT WITH PROPER CREDITS! CeCi December 2012 – 2 Boys’ Potluck Party
Suite house that opens a party of 2 sexy guys dressed in dazzling suits aiming for the glimmering party look.
Same age friends Wooyoung & Kwon – from 2PM to 2AM – a 2-men Christmas Potluck party continues.
“It’s really disappointing to spend romantic
Christmas alone just like that, right? It would be great to have a
lover, but right now I’m satisfied having beloved friends and my group
members. There’s a bond of sympathy you can’t share with your loved one.
When you get all together and unleash at least a small pack of the
stories that accumulated over time, the night feels light with relief.
To me it is a healing energy and the happiest party.”
Ceci: How was the magazine photoshoot today?
Kwon: It’s the first time we
did it just the two of us, so I think it will become a good memory.
Since we really are close, we frequently upload trivial pieces of our
everyday lives through the SNS, but since we got to shoot the pictorial
in this spirit, it doesn’t feel like work at all, we enjoyed shooting it
for a long time.
Wooyoung: I wanted to enjoy
the Christmas mood even more, but as I understood the concept, I tried
hard to protect the gentleman’s dignity. Haha!

[Trans] Nichkhun. Advertisers were not disturbed. Why?

Kor-Eng: Egle @2pmalways | Source: m.heraldbiz  Nichkhun has taken a
time off since July as he got involved in a DUI accident. Once a star is
exposed to public criticism, first and foremost, that start is cut off from
commercial advertisements. However, that did not happen to Nichkhun who gets
the biggest amount of commercial advertising deals among 2PM members. That is a
special case.
When Kang Hodong got
involved in a tax controversy, even after the temporary retirement announcement
the famous Igatan drug commercial kept on being broadcast, however that was an
exceptional case. No matter how much the advertisers like their product model,
in case of censure or public criticism, the star is immediately cut off from
the deal in fear that the tainted image would somehow be connected to
the image of the product. That is so, because they cannot rule out the
possibility of going into a minus despite spending money on advertising.
