Baby Born with....

So my fascination with peens continues. This time, it’s related to a bizarre medical event and not a jovial celebration on the street. A baby was born in some childrens hospital in Tianjin, China, with an extra penis on his back. This is a medical first and can be attributed to a condition known as Fetus in Fetu, which is said to have happened only 90 times throughout medical history.

Imagine the shock on the mom’s as well as the doctor’s and nurses’ face when they saw the extra penis on the baby’s back. Fortunately, after three hours of surgery, the extra penis is gone and the little boy is doing fine.

Oh WonBin teared as he say goodbye on last appearance as FT Island

Oh WonBin teared as he say goodbye on last appearance as FT Island



Oh Won Bin, who left the group FT Island last month, has his last appearance on stage as part of FT Island for the last time.

FT Island had their ‘FT Island Mini Live & Fan meeting 2009 - The One’ in Tokyo Shinagawa Hotel on the 10th.

The members had a mini live performances of 7 songs including ‘Soyogi’. And member Choi Min Hwan who is in the midst of filming a drama couldn’t be present but he sent his encouragements through a video recording.

And maknae Lee Jae Jin had spoken in Japanese on behalf of Oh Won Bin, “Oh Won Bin has decided to left our team after our Busan concert. We have a new member and we are in the midst of working on a new album.”

“With whatever road that WonBin will choose ahead, and also FT Island moving ahead with our new member - we hope that everyone will continue to support WonBin and FT Island.”

And Oh WonBin did a solo stage on the song ‘A Song For You’.

After the song ended, WonBin had kept his head low and encouragements like ‘Don’t cry’ and ‘Hwaiting WonBin’ can be heard from fans. Some of the fans had also teared at the scene.

Oh WonBin said, “I’m so sorry. I am so sorry for not being able to be with my FT Island members and with you fans.”

“But today, I had wanted to see you ‘Primadonna’ so I came to Japan with FT Island. This is my decision after I had thought through a lot and after having to talked through it with other members. There has been rumours that my relationship with the new member being on bad terms, but they are not true.”

Hardly trying to talk through his tears, Oh WonBin said, “Lastly, I want to perform a song that I really like.” And he performed ‘Ma Joong’ from FT Island’s debut album ‘Cheerful Sensibility’. After which, the other members had also went on to the stage and they performed ‘The One’.

Leader Choi Jung Hoon was also caught tearing during the fan meeting.

Meanwhile, FT Island will release a new minialbum ‘Jump Up’.

FTisland, who are receiving the most popularity right now, have gathered here today in uniforms, as if they were going to school!
This is their first TV advertisement they are filming, and everyone has been saying that they are very talented actors and have been modelling like any professional model does.
Let's meet the members.

FTisland are entering the world of advertisements!
They have displayed a clean and innocent looks as uniform CF models - let's go meet them.
FTisland's Lee Hongki is standing in front of the camera rightnow and he seems to be thinking really hard about something.
Today is FTisland's debut day in TV CF.
Starting from Hongki, we've been filming the ad, but Hongki doesn't seem to like it and he keeps wanting to film it again.
HongkI: To everyone who is watching YTN STar, I'm FTisland's Lee Hongki. Long time no see! I've just filmed it again! But i'm not sure if it came out well. I hope the director edit's it well.
Hongki is wearing a bright colored uniform...

Q) How do you like the uniform..?
A) "There's only one of this uniform in the whole world. If i really wore this uniform to school i think it'll be really pretty"

On the other side of the room, some people are watching Hongki being filmed.
These people are the other members of FTisland. Lee Jaejin and Choi Minhwan are watching. I wonder what they're thinking of?
Minhwan: Wow he's doing really good. Very good"

Q) How does it feel wearing this nice uniform..?
A) I really like it because it's nicer than our usual school uniform. I wish this was my school uniform!"

Choi Jonghun is nodding his head at Hongki.

Q) Why are you nodding your head..?
A) Hongki's expression is saying "That's right! This is how you do it" That's Why i'm nodding.

This time, the members all have to film it together. They have to act out a part where the school bus shakes and they have to look shocked.
Even though they made many bloopers, FTisland are enjoying themselves a lot.

Q) It's your first CF filming so arent you feeling nervous?
A) Since it's our first time, i was feeling really nervous. But i'll get used to it! And i'll try my best."

Even though the time is late and FTisland have to keep filming, their energy levels are so high that the atmosphere is constantly cheeful.
We wonder what FTisland's charms are.. The youngest member, Choi Minhwan is going to tell us his charm.

Q) What do you think your charm is..?
A) Sexy? haha. Since i'm the youngest.. everyone thinks of me as cute. Whatever i do, they see me as cute."

Hongki is filming a couple act with popular singer Younha. As Younha falls over, Hongki catches her in his arms.
The two of them seem to be doing verywell together, and i think that Hongki is probably the most tired out of everyone today, since he has to film the most.

Q) Aren't you feeling tired...?
A) It's really hot in here since the lights are constantly shining on me, and also it kinda hurts because i'm in the same position for a long time. However it's quite fun!"

As soon as FTisland's 1st album was released, "Love sick", and "Thunder" have become hit songs, and FTisland are now the most popular new boyband.
They are showing their many skills through acting.
Lee Jaejin is currently playing KimSumi's fourth son in the KBS daily sitcom "Unstoppable Marriage"

Q) How does it feel acting in a sitcom?
A) It feels a little weird because I'm in a group but i go by myself to fil. But I'm trying my best!"

FTisland - teenagers with many dreams.. They chose girl celebrtities that fit their ideal girl most.
Hongki chose Song Hyegyo, Minhwan chose Han Hyoju, Jaejin chose Lim SooJung, Wonbin chose Jeon JiHyun, Jonghun chose Han Yeseul.


Q) If you met your ideal girl what would you do?
A) "Say hello? Tell them a story? hehe. I guess i could only wish for it."
FTisland is also going to be holding their first concert very soon.

Q) You're preparing for your first concert right?
A) "These days we are practising a lot for our concert.
On december the 15th, we'll be holding our first concert at Daegu. I hope alot of fans come!
We're trying our best so it's okay if your expectations are high~
Just as long as you come to see us with love"

Truthfully, when FTisland first debuted,
everyone was amazed at their talents since they played their music with their own hands,
and they have practised so much before their debut.

Q) We've heard that FTisland are practise bugs!..? and they like to pracise alot.
A) Before our debut, we practise from 2PM to 12AM daily. At least 10 hours a day.
But because we have schedules now it's gotten much harder. Because of our concert, we try to fit in 14 hours of practise a day. We get really tired from our schedules but we enjoy our practise.. so.."

Q) Who would you say practises the hardest..?
A) Well.. since Jaejin is filming the sitcom these days.."

Jaejin: Are you telling him that i don't practise at all?!!?!

Wonbin: haha. Jaejin practises by himself at night.
He stays up later to practise and i think that's amazing.
But the truth is, our youngest member, Minhwan is actually the one who pracises the most.
He's a practise bug!

Q) Anything you'd like to say to everyone watching..?
A) "Everyone who is watching YTN Star! Thank you so much for watching! We'll film really well and show you a better side of ourselves. ALso, we'll try to prepare our concert really well! Thank you!"

FTisland, who have appeared suddenly like a comet, are receiving alot of popularity and we can see that this is all thanks to their constant practise.
CF filming, Concert preparations and acting etc. Today we've seen that yhey are trying their best in all parts of the entertainment industry!

A New Boy In Town : Lee JaeJin

Lee Jae Jin


Photobucket

The first time I saw Lee JaeJin I thought he was the cutest thing ever. I mean he has this incredible cute babyface and a GREAT sense of fashion, I could totally place him in the samecategory as Jun Matsumoto when it comes to fashion.




PhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucket


He really does have a cute smile too if you may notice in one of his picturesWhat really is amazing is the way he plays the Bass. (Man he can really play that thing!!) I usually have this habit of not looking at bassist since well they arent all that great, but its a whole different story for JaeJin.;D.



PhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucket


He also has a great sense of humor, as we notice in the drama Unstoppable Marriage. **He was soo darn cute**


Photobucket


Here are some Icons Of JaeJin:<3333

I think the reason why I like him alot
would be because we are pretty alike

we both love fashion
we both love eating :)
we both share a love for music
and we are around the same age
he is 18 years old and im 17 years old ;D

How amazing is THAT

Lee Jae Jin to be in a musical

Photobucket


Playing the role of a young boy in his first love in “Sonagi”



A dark face with a bashful way of talking and a bright smile. Lee Jaejin (18), who I met in the practice room of the musical, “Sonagi,” in no time was changed into a pure country boy of the story.

“I’m actually a native of the countryside. Until the end of elementary school, I lived in ChungJoo, where the paddy fields were spread out everywhere. When I was in 1st grade, there was this little girl I liked so in order to look good in front of her I would follow her around everywhere and even send letters to her and then run away. As I remember those memories, I am practicing for this musical.”

Lee Jaejin, who is the bassist of FT Island, was also casted in the sitcom, “Unstoppable Marriage” last time but it is his first time being in a musical.

After being suggested to audition for the musical, he thought “First off I’m not even that good at music, so would it be okay to challenge myself with something else” and was hesitant but then after thinking “When I get chances like this, I should just go for it,” he said that he eventually had the desire to do it.

“And even after I made that final decision to audition and heard that I made it in, my future was desolate. Although my title is a band member, since I play the bass, I never had the experience of singing or dancing before.”

He is “however carefully and step by step learning and gaining courage and self-confidence now” and said that the greatest earnings from doing the musical is how his expectations for himself while seeing himself change has grown.

“Through this musical, I am really changing as I am learning many new things. Usually my posture, which wouldn’t be upright, has been fixed and my acting and singing skill, compared to before, have definitely improved. (Jokingly) Now people are saying shouldn’t they replace me as the vocal of FT Island (laugh).”

Musical “Sonagi” is a dramatized version of Hwang Soon Won’s story, which is even in schoolbooks, too.

Last year when the play was first performed, Big Bang’s Seungri played the role of the young boy, which lead this musical to become big.

He, who has taken over the spot that Seungri had before, when asked if “won’t it be a burden since you might be compared,” replied, “I will try to make the audience feel Lee Jaejin’s own color and energy.”

“Honestly when I first learned about “Sonagi” in school I didn’t get that sad feeling in my heart, but after reading it again I thought to myself and wondered why I couldn’t feel it then. While it’s a short story, the pureness of first love makes it a piece of work that really touches your heart. In the performance, you will be able to feel that same charm of the original work.”

Big Bang Role Model : Agaisnt Smoking

Big Bang Role Models





Just before the Big Bang Special was shown.
Big Bang had prepared a small little commercial
about smoking and how bad it is, but making a song out of it.
It shows us that not only those the band no smoke but how they
can be great role model for young teenagers.

My New Obsession: FT Island

My Current New Obsession:

FT Island a new up and coming rising rock band! And also the new IT Band!

Photobucket

Photobucket


The name FT Island is short for Five Treasures Island which is represented by five members, Lee Hong Ki as the lead vocalist, Lee Jae Jin on bass, Choi Jong Hun on guitar, Choi Min Hwan on drums and Oh Won Bin on guitar and vocals. They are such a talented and good looking group, its no wonder that ever since their recent debut they have such high popularity. Their debut album is called Cheerful Sensibitility that consists of 13 rock ballads and pop rock tracks which are all a good listen. My favorites songs would be: Heaven, Love Sick, Thunder Only One Person and First Kiss. They exploded in into the Kpop scene recently and they are taking the country by storm. I believe its due to the fact there is no other group like them currently, who sing and play their own instruments. This band is very promising as they have a lot of potential and star power to make it to the top and be the next big thing in the years to come!
And my favorite member of the band would be none other than Lee Jae Jin
I really enjoy his sense of fashion and the way he plays his bass.
;D Keep up the good work Oppas.

Headlines


During the Gayo Daejun's festival at the very end of 2008, FT Island performed on the festival of [SBS Broadcasting Group|SBS]]. Because of the busy schedule, Hong Ki became ill. He suffered from fatigue, exhaustion and had problems with his voice. But he continued to perform, resulting that he lost his voice gradually. Later on, he fell and was rushed to a hospital where he got medical treatment. Netizens affirmed first that this was "unprofessionalism" of Hong Ki. But then after they knew about his illness and why it happened, they changed that assumption. Hong Ki himself felt ashamed about that incident and had apologized to everyone especially "Primadonnas" (FT Island's fans) for that bad performance.

Former Member Oh won Bin left the group on the January 28, 2009, because of "differences in music". He has stated that he is pursuing a solo career.

Youngest member Choi Min Hwan fainted on the 23rd March during shooting his drama.He was quickly taken to the hospital where he got treatment. Nothing serious happened and he was able to leave early the next day. F&C stated, that he had become increasingly tired because of his music activities and his drama. In addition, he had caught a serious cold and seemed to have overworked himself.

Kim Hyung-Joong Charity.

Photobucket

Kim Hyun-joong of SS501 and more famously for “Boys over Flowers” star, recently took part in the ‘COACH Taste Maker Tote Project’ charity auction event along with other celebrities such as Kim, Bum, Son Dambi, Kim Jun and 22 other celebrities.

With the support of the celebrities, the auction brought in approximately 8.5 million KRW (approximately $6,445 USD). But it was Kim Hyun-Joong’s creation alone that managed to rake in one-third of that amount 2.5 million KRW (approximately $1,894 USD). No matter how hot Kim Hyun-Joong is and even if it is limited to one piece, that is a LOT of money to pay for a cheesy canvas tote bag with a face drawn with a black sharpie marker. Good thing the funds raised are being used for a good cause and was donated to a children’s charity organization.
For those that are curious why Kim Hyun-Joong drew such a face on the tote bag, he stated, “Behind the glamorous image shown to the public is not only laughter, but also suffering and loneliness which I expressed through the congested eyes.”

Boys Before Flowers deleted episode.. (Its not over YET)

The drama ended with Goo Joon Pyo finding back his memory successfully. And JanDi made it into a medical college, proving to be a strong ‘weed’, together with Yoon Ji Hoo; So Yi Jung and Sung WooBin also had their own happy ending. This can be said to be a ‘happy ending all the way’.

And the happy ending also brought the viewers to the propose from Joon Pyo to JanDi, leaving the sweetest moments for viewers who has been quite irritated by the love-and-then-leave-again relationship.

Also a special episode of the drama will also be aired 1 week from the last 25th episode.




Wow! I'm so excited. So it's not over yet. If this is true and not just some April Fool's Joke then there might be a wedding afterall. Yipeeee! I can't wait for whatever Special episode this is. With fingers crossed, I hope it's not just some interview. LoL.

TAKERUSATO
Spcial interview: Planing for a sweet date

Regarding if you are planning a sweet plan. What is my date idea asking the girl I like out? I guess I will email(via mobile) her (*laughing*)...might be like that.

Text msg(s)
Me: Next time shall we go out?
She: Yeah
Me: wow really when will you free?
She: (date / month) ..must be OK.
Me: Okay .so we go out that day ne'.
She: Alright sounds good.!
Me: Shall we start with a lunch together : )))


Long cardigan
“I chose long knitting coz it’s comfortable and soft I like it”

Scarf
“ I picked pinky scarf matching with my cloth …hahahah going out for date right should definitely PINK :P”

Boots
“Sure must be top boots – black one! I’ll put legs inside then to make it’s more cool.”
...........................................................
Sweetie plan of Takeru

12:00 Meeting at coffee shop
13:30 Shopping
18:30 Dinner
20:30 Take a walk & stop by again at coffee shop
22:00 Send her home
...........................................................
My dream date start with meeting at noon for lunch together. Must be at a nice coffee shop (like this one we shooting today). So we shall have spaghetti and talk over about our next plan.

If the weather is quite good as today I think I shall take her a walk…long nice walk (ieieie aimlessly) Like shopping window if we find interesting shops we shall stop by. I’ll help her shopping though...help her choosing nice clothes or accessories. I think I have a good sense of fashion…so she can rely on me. (*laughing*)

After shopping date, so it comes to dinner right. Hmmm already got spaghetti for lunch so dinner must be Japanese one *perfect! Definitely chill out dinner and after that must talk over again “…what should we do next?” "Still wanna spend time chatting, so order shall we order tea? We will move to coffee shop near byby ordering tea and continue our nice chat (*laughing*). About 10:00pm I think it’s about time “This is quite late let me take you home" so I take her back safely.

Any particular thing during date? No not at all, for me I will keep chatting with her coz I’m dreaming of this date for long time ritem so if we not chitchat it’s must be freak out huh (*LOL). I think girl who quite talkative is OK …example If she can suggest the restaurant like “this one is also good” I love sharing idea when it comes to date. No need that only me would set up everything every time, it depends on situation rite so my date and I can take turn set plan up : )))))
