Magazine Feature: Dara’s Favorite Nail Color And Drawing In Mini Magazine

Here’s Dara’s feature:

Favorite Nail Color: DARA’S CHOICE – I like the bright hues of these 4 colors! I chose these without hesitation. Among these, I like the pink one of the left-most side the most. “The color reminds me of strawberry au lait, it’s too cute ♡ “

Dara’s Drawing: I always draw an image of myself with a smiling face. And that’s actually a red apple that I added. And I didn’t forget to add 2NE1’s new song, (SCREAM), I am, after all, 2NE1’s PR Director.

News: SHINee’s Onew “I Was The Only One Who Wasn’t Able To Kiss Sandara Park”

SHINee’s Onew “I Was The Only One Who Wasn’t Able To Kiss Sandara Park”

SHINee’s Onew reveals the reason why he wasn’t able to shoot a kissing scene with Sandara Park, in the group’s latest CF for a cosmetics brand.

On cable channel Mnet’s show, “The Beatles Code 2,” SHINee’s Onew revealed that at the time of the shooting, he wasn’t feeling well, so he wasn’t able to do the planned kissing scene with Sandara Park. Co-member, Key, reveals “Onew was the only one who didn’t even get to see Sandara Park.”

In the advertisement series called “Kiss Note,” SHINee’s Jonghyun, Key, Taemin, and Minho were able to share a magical kiss with Sandara Park, as she wrote each of their names in the book called “Kiss Note.”

On that day, on the same show “The Beatles Code 2,” SHINee was each given a “Kiss Note” fo their own where they could write the names of the person they would like to kiss. The SHINee members were shy to show what they wrote, and hid what was on their notebook by covering them with their hands.

News:Sandara Park’s Height Humiliation Next To The Tall SHINee Members Revealed

Sandara Park’s Height Humiliation Next To The Tall SHINee Members Revealed

Girl group 2NE1 member, Sandara Park, looking cutely small next to the SHINee members, is becoming hot topic between netizens.

On the 4th of April, an online community board uploaded a picture under the title, “Sandara Park is really small.” In the photo, Sandara Park and the SHINee members were standing side-by-side, in what appears to be a commercial photoshoot for a cosmetics brand they are all endorsing. All of them wore matching costumes with pink jackets, which looked like uniforms. It showed their idol charms to the utmost.

But people are not talking about this photo just because of their charms. If you look closely, you can see that Sandara Park is standing on a platform, in order to reduce the height difference between herself and SHINee’s Key, who is standing beside her. In reality, Sandara Park is about 6 years older than the average ages of all the SHINee members, so she’s really a “noona” but because of her small stature, cute face, and fresh image, she seems much younger than her age. Her small face and beauty stood out even at a distance. In the photo, it even seems that she is the youngest among them.

Currently the keywords Key humilation (T/N: Because Dara is standing right beside Key)” and “Sandara height humiliation” are one of the most searched. Netizens who saw the pictures, commented with, “The best in the music industry,” “Her appearance and beauty along more than makes up for her short height,” “The SHINee oppas are really tall,” “Sandara Park is cutely small next to Key,” “There’s just a feeling that the boys are so tall,” “Her small face matches with her height,” “She’s small, but she’s cute,” “SHINee are just giants,” “Their faces are really small,” showing their hot reaction.

Interview: 2NE1′s Interview With Oricon Japan, Part 2

ー The relationship between you four is really good and you speak of each other very well.

DARA: It’s always been the four of us together. Though we have this age difference, we communicate well with each other. We fit each other. But during times when we have our own opinion on something and we enforce on it, testing each other’s patience, we go off by ourselves first instead of forcefully imposing. In that way, we get to honestly say what we feel after a time, and we get a better understanding of each other when we then listen to what the others have to say before drawing a conclusion.

ー Maintaining a good relationship with each other by not piling up on stress.

DARA: Though CL is younger, she’s definitely 2NE1’s lader. She has a way of looking at things about 2NE1 objectively. In this sense, the unnies are like the maknaes, and the maknaes like the unnies. Ha ha!
