Will these new idols capture the movies screens sooner or later as well?
Even in the district of Chungmuro, there has been a lot of interest in idols. Last year, Ga-in (from Brown Eyed Girls) appeared in the movie “My Love by My Side” directed by Park Jinpyo, revealing a new side of her. In addition, Top from Big Bang who showed his acting skills in the KBS2TV Drama ‘Iris’, starred in the movie “Into the Fire” in the second half of the year.
‘Idols who are good at acting’ are considered as rising stars full of possibilities. Most recently, Sandara Park (2NE1) and Taeckyeon (2PM) are receiving much attention from the public.
The interest in Sandara Park has started from the moment she debuted. She has been quite in demand, not only for movies, but also for dramas. She made a short appearance in last year’s MBC Drama “The Return of Iljimae”.
Sandara Park was suggested for the female lead role in the Korean version of ‘Step Up’ as the role called for a girl with an elegant and bright charm. Recently, rumours have been going around that she will be playing the opposing role to a renowned actor. Sandara Park’s several strengths include her fresh and innocent appearance and star quality, her singing and dancing and of course, her experience within the acting industry. She is being singled out as an actor with the most potential to succeed of the moment.

Rough Translations/Summary:
Dara and Minzy were mentioned and introduced in the vid clip… Dara as an actress from the Philippines and Minzy as a genius dancer. After Minzy was mentioned, a preview of Fire as 2NE1’s first single was shown. According to the discussion of the Japanese hosts that followed after the vid clips, 2NE1’s really cool and that they’re only a year old in Korean showbiz but they’re really good. The female host said that 2NE1 girls are tsuyoi onna (strong girls).
They also said that 2NE1’s music genre is a combination of hiphop and electronica, something that is really new. Rocktronica was also mentioned… a combination of rock and electronica. Afterwards, a preview of Fire MV was shown, showing the dance. I Don’t Care MV preview followed which they said is a medium tempo kind of song. (Lisa-san’s comment was not clear, but after, someone said “fashion” and “amazing” pertaining to 2NE1.)
The group who parodied 2NE1 was then introduced and after their performance, the hosts thanked them. If I’m not mistaken, the group said that their clothes were all improvised and the hosts were all amazed with their outfits.

Our new family member! Tada~!^.^ This guy is from a foreign country ke We adopted him because he looked like Ssantoki so he still doesn’t have a name. This kid will be Tamtam’s dongsaeng ke he could even be Tamtam’s friend* ke He looks so funny ke hehehe Welcome to Tamtam Family!^.^
* when Korean people use the word “friend” that means they’re the same age.
TRANSLATOR NOTES: Please note, I only used ‘he’ because it sounds too awkward as ‘it’. Sandara never specified a gender.

Tom-tom is merely a coined term by ohdara 😉
No matter who you ask, out of all the idols in Korea, 2NE1 has been the group to be able to play around the most from the moment they started. This fun, fierce four member group was able to play around and have fun with make up at the Etude House commercial photo shoot too. We were able to meet with them at their play ground, and we will now reveal their unique beauty tips here that they only shared with Cosmo!
