HASHTAG COOKIE JAR 🗣🗣🗣

BTOB’s Minhyuk recently participated in a photo shoot with CeCi and was asked about the group's new music.

“Every time we came out with new music, we tried to try something new. But ‘Missing You‘ got so much love, so we thought long and hard about whether we should try something new again, or if we should try something similar to repay the love the song got. In the end, we decided to return all the love we received, so I think we came out with a really great song.”

He was then asked whether they felt pressure after the success of “Missing You” last year. He commented, “It felt more like we had let go of a big worry. Our group has a lot of ambition towards music, so it’s great that we get as much love as we work hard, but we felt a lot more pressure every time we came out with new music. It feels like we were finally acknowledged with ‘Movie’ and ‘Missing You’ last year, so we’re less anxious.”

After leaving YG Entertainment and WINNER, Nam Tae Hyun set up his own music label and formed the band South Club.

He confessed, “It’s really hard being on my own. I have to act as the manager, hairstylist, makeup artist, and stylist.”

The singer continued, “Our songs also really don’t see great results. When I was at my old agency, they aided us when it came to production costs, but right now I have to cover all of it with my own money. I have to pay my employees so I have a lot of debt.” He added that sometimes he even takes out loans or pays his employees with his own personal money.

#NUEST_W's Comeback Track "Dejavu" Partially Leaked + KBS Responds https://t.co/dYvYGhFSEd pic.twitter.com/3nMEqZVBAc

— Soompi (@soompi) 21. Juni 2018

Part of NU’EST W’s new song has been leaked ahead of its release.

The June 21 episode of KBS2’s “Good Morning” featured the story of a 13-year-old yo-yo genius, and NU’EST W’s upcoming title track “Dejavu” played in the background for 28 seconds.

Following the incident, many people reported the issue as the program played the song even before its release.

In response, a source from KBS commented, “We have become aware of NU’EST W’s new song ‘Dejavu’ being leaked. The production team is currently figuring out how this happened.”

NU’EST W’s new album “Who, You” including “Dejavu” is set to be released on June 25 at 6 p.m. KST.

On June 20, KBS announced that BLACKPINK‘s song “See U Later,” would not be allowed to broadcast. According to the company, the song was disqualified for swearing, coarse language, and vulgar expression used in the lyrics.

Besides “See You Later,” Cube Entertainment’s rap unit, that consists of Peniel, Lee Min-hyuk, and Jung Il-hoon from BtoB, CLC’s Jang Ye-eun Pentagon’s Jung Woo-seok, and (G)I-DLE Jeon So-yeon, is also in trouble. KBS also deemed their new song “Mermaid” ineligible because of obscene content. Apparently, the company believed that “Mermaid” directly or indirectly contained descriptions of sex or homosexuality.

In addition to those two groups, songs by AOMG’s Elo, Dynamic Duo, Deepflow (ft. Nucksal, Odee, and Wutan) and DunDun, were banned for similar reasons as well as mentioning specific brands or speaking ill of certain individuals, organizations, or companies.

Actor Jo Jae Hyun has been hit with a sexual assault claim by a former actress. It comes months after he was first accused of sexual harassment in February this year by actress Choi Yul, after which the actor admitted his wrongdoing and resigned from his professorship at Kyungsung University. He was also removed from the drama “Cross,” which he had been headlining at the time.

In this latest allegation, a Korean-Japanese actress (hereafter referred to as “A”), currently 42, is claiming that 16 years ago, Jo Jae Hyun sexually assaulted her in the bathroom of a broadcasting station. She said, “I was sexually assaulted by Jo Jae Hyun 16 years ago, and I’m still suffering from severe trauma.”

Jo Jae Hyun has since denied the allegations, claiming that it was consensual.
