Article: 'Radio Star' Lee Joon clarifies "I regretted the idol dating statement"

Source: TV Daily via Nate

"Before, I said that there are idols who will take turns dating each other in groups and that I felt like I was watching 'Animal Kingdom' whenever I saw that happen. Ever since saying that, I haven't been able to go to music broadcasts."

MCs, "The public said that you made a respectable statement but it must've been difficult to avoid the criticisms of your fellow singers. Do you still meet the idols that you mentioned?"

Lee Joon, "I meet several of them but I can't look them in the eye. I really regret comparing them to 'Animal Kingdom' as an expression."

Article: MBLAQ Mir "There are times I miss 'Real Men'"

Source: OSEN via Naver

1. [+960, -37] Mir wasn't bad... but sorry, Hyung Shik has grown too big

2. [+866, -11] His agency was stupid... He didn't get a lot of screentime but everyone recognized the hard work he was putting into the show and he was building up a great image right when they took him off the show... He couldn't join now even if he wanted to because the show has gotten so popular and there are more publicly recognized celebrities lining up for a slot... It's going to be as hard as picking a star out of the sky for him to come back to the show. I'd be upset if I were Mir.. He could've cemented an amazing image for himself but his damn agency screwed up...

3. [+715, -47] Sorry but... Hyung Shik is more fun to watch..

4. [+598, -18] Don't worry, you still have the real army left ㅋㅋ

5. [+549, -26] I'm really only watching the show for Park Hyung Shik now

6. [+467, -28] There are only a few golden opportunities that come in your life and he threw one of them away.

7. [+439, -30] You lost a once in a life time opportunity... This is one of the hottest shows right now.. You think Kim Soo Ro is getting surgery just to stay on this show for no reason? You're already a forgotten member of the show...

8. [+331, -17] He basically kicked away a golden opportunity that landed on his lap

9. [+319, -15] He would've earned more popularity sticking with 'Real Men' in the end

10. [+195, -9] Park Hyung Shik, don't leave the show like Mir did! My entire family's watching the show because of you... Mir, you worked hard as well~~

1. [+310, -5] Everyone in Mir's household has the same nose and mouth

2. [+215, -8] I think anyone would be able to tell that Mir's family is related ㅋㅋ Go Eun Ah and Mir in particular look so alike, they're like twins

3. [+31, -5] She's pretty but I'm more surprised over the fact that she's a mother..

4. [+21, -4] They all look related but the oldest nuna is the prettiest... But she's already married.

5. [+21, -2] Way prettier than Go Eun Ah;;;;;

1. [+1,207, -277] Better than EXO winning #1

2. [+919, -162] Can their coordis dress them in something brighter, I'm tired of this image ㅡㅡ They look like sl*ts... Put them in something nicer

3. [+739, -60] Dunno if songs these days are made to be heard or seen

4. [+647, -111] I feel really bad for MBLAQ;;;
- Agreed, MBLAQ's song is better than SISTAR's. Does MBLAQ not have any fans or something?
- Yeah, I've never had a memorable song from MBLAQ but Smoky Girl sounds good.
- MBLAQ's song does sound good.

5. [+587, -194] I'm a male and not even a fan of MBLAQ but Smoky Girl is a lot more addictive than SISTAR's song

Article: 'MBLAQ diss' Im Jun Hyuk apologizes "Disappointed in the recording, I wrote it with humor"

Source: TV Daily via Nate

1. [+480, -10] It obviously became controversial because it's not humorous at all

2. [+358, -9] His first post shows no intention of making an apology... I don't know what about it he thought was humorous... Someone probably forced him to apologize.

3. [+290, -8] Not humorous at all! Just giving out wounds to everyone!

4. [+52, -1] Is he really a gagman? How can a gagman not know what's humorous?... I think he needs to rethink his career.

5. [+48, -0] What a ba$tard. Should've just manned up and admitted his fault instead of making excuses saying he was joking now that he's pushed to the corner ㅋㅋㅋ

1. [+280, -27] Damn right that he should debut before the girl group;;; Suffered for three years ㅠ_ㅠ Seung Yoon-ah, you worked hard!!!

2. [+245, -21] A bit late but the timing for his debut seems good ㅋㅋㅋ

3. [+115, -38] But YG's music has been sucking lately...

4. [+19, -6] Finally! Finally!

5. [+13, -1] But does Teddy compose rock too?... I guess he produces a variety of genres. I think YG depends on Teddy too much so all of their music ends up sounding the same...

Article: Im Jun Hyuk disses MBLAQ "They think they're superstars"... netizens confused

Source: No Cut News via Nate

"Since starting Rising Star, today's recording was the most difficult. Realized only today that the 2PM friends really did work hard ㅡㅡ. "Can't do this, can't do that" until right before the recording. Then when we finally tried to synchronize together before the recording, the must've either not heard what we told them or heard it and forgotten... THey think they're superstars... G.O. worked quite hard, though. This is my personal opinion so diss me if you have anything to say."

1. [+460, -97] So basically, he wasn't that fond of 2PM either

2. [+337, -48] He must've known this post would be controversial... Why'd he write it so publicly like that...

3. [+384, -133] Is there any other idol group like MBLAQ who isn't afraid to ruin their image or throw their bodies into physically demanding work? I was actually worried about them ruining their images over how fearless they were in variety shows. They got surgery for breaking a rib while overextending themselves on a variety show, had two back surgeries for doing the limbo while holding up a girl on another variety show... There are no idols that can follow up to them in terms of variety work ethic. And if they were cocky by any chance, he should've criticized them on the spot, then and there. He's basically asking netizens to hate on them, help me hate on them... He only wrote things from his perspective, too. Pathetic.

4. [+149, -121] How much of a nuisance was MBLAQ that the gagman felt the need to write something like this ㅡㅡ tsk tsk I can understand that gagman, especially if they really said that they can't do this or that before the recording.

5. [+102, -21] I think it's important to hear both sides of the story...

6. [+82, -16] I'm more suspicious of that gagman than MBLAQ...

Source: TV Report via Naver

1. [+40, -4] I'll summarize it for you all~ He basically felt that he didn't really like 2PM but MBLAQ is just as worse.. ㅋㅋㅋ

2. [+57, -27] This is T-ara's fault. Since T-ara came in the music industry, they created a culture trend of publicly dissing people through SNS. This is one example of the phenomenon.

3. [+33, -6] The one good thing SNS is good for: it outs the idiots.

4. [+26, -12] He's going to end up having to delete it anyway... Why not think before pressing enter?

3. [+31, -19] Not that great to see people going public with things like this on SNS..

Article: MBLAQ responds to Im Jun Hyuk's 'diss controversy' "We did everything we were asked"

Source: Sports Seoul via Nate

MBLAQ rep: "I was at the recording studio and the members did everything asked of them by the gagmen. They even offered to go rehearse in the gagmen's waiting rooms because they are younger but they declined, saying it was easier for them to go to them. MBLAQ was not late to the rehearsals and actually went above and beyond what was required of them. After the recording, they took pictures with the other gagmen. The other gagmen seemed to enjoy their company. There was nothing that could've caused a misunderstanding. The atmosphere was great."

1. [+104, -9] Yeah, I don't think MBLAQ are the type of kids who just half a$$ what's asked of them

2. [+84, -13] I remember them working really hard on SNL

3. [+76, -7] KBS 'Immortal Song' Go Min Goo PD said on the 19th with TV Report, "I cannot believe that MBLAQ would be in a controversy for not working hard. You could ask any variety PD, they'll all give you the same response and it's that there isn't any other group than MBLAQ that works as hard as they do."

On Im Jun Hyuk's public diss, the PD said, "On a gag program, the gagman is the star of the show. It's his job to fill what his guests cannot. I don't understand why he would say those things on SNS and not to them directly at the point of it happening."

AN 'SNL Korea' rep also said, "This is actually my first time hearing that MBLAQ didn't work hard on a variety show. They're friends who worked harder than the actual hosts on SNL. Lee Joon himself came after a morning recording of 'MCountdown' and still waited for Miranda Kerr for two hours and went into a rushed rehearsal with her."

Article: Lee Joon's respectable statement "You're deluding yourself if you think that your idol income will last forever"

Source: TV Daily via Daum

Lee Joon: "We make more money than most people our age, and people tend to delude themselves into thinking that we'll be making this kind of money forever. Your career's over the minute you think that, though.

Until now, my only dream has been to make money. I was able to help out when my aunt fell sick. She recovered when I went to go see her. I'm proud of myself for spending my money in this way while others are buying foreign cars. My goal for now is for everyone around me to be happy."

1. [+447, -6] He may seem naive sometimes but I think he's actually a nice, innocent person. He's not just saving money but he actually has goals and good intentions. I really hope that everything works out for him and that he continues to grow into a great person.

2. [+369, -2] You really can't help but like him... He doesn't have that characteristic selfishness that a lot of celebrities have.

3. [+324, -2] Proud

4. [+203, -1] This is why I like him, he's not a tryhard... He's young but he's got a good head on his shoulders and always works hard. ㅋㅋㅋ Good kid.

5. [+185, -2] I originally liked MBLAQ when they debuted because of their handsome/chic image but once you actually get to know them, you realize that they may seem a bit dopy but they're quite mature and dependable for their age. I feel like Lee Joon will make quite the career for himself even after MBLAQ disbands.

6. [+132, -1] You can really tell that Park Myung Soo absolutely adores the kid. I love idol guests like him. He knows the importance of money and knows that it's not something to spend mindlessly. I actually learned something from him.

7. [+127, -1] You can't judge this kid just for being an idol. His idol image makes him look like a tryhard but there are actually a lot of idols who work hard. Sung Dae Hyun looked so comparatively immature next to Lee Joon with how hard he was trying to get a laugh out of the crowd...

8. [+88, -0] If only other idols would think like he does.

9. [+62, -1] I watched hoping that my own son will grow up to be like him. Respectable and a hard worker.

10. [+55, -1] One of the very few idols that you can learn something from.
