finally..,alexander tweets about his departure from U-KISS

Former U-KISS member Alexander, a.k.a. Xander, recently left a tweet about his departure from the group.

Although Kim Kibum (who had also left U-KISSat the same time as Xander) had shared his feelings about leaving the group through Twitter and through interviews, Xander had been keeping quiet throughout the whole situation.

However, on March 11th, Xander finally broke his silence. He tweeted the following message in both Korean and in English:

“Good morning everyone, this is Alexander. Long time no see. Thank you for waiting patiently during this difficult time.

As you all know, my departure from U-KISS has been official, and my contract with NH EMG has been terminated.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank God for all my beloved KISSme fans from all around the world for being my BEST support since my debut in U-KISS.

All of your love & support made me into who I am today, with all my achievements.

I know that my departure from U-KISS might be quite sudden and heart-breaking for most of our KISSme fans…

It is also heart-breaking for me to say goodbye to all of you. But I would say, I respect the decision of my company.
I would like to thank Mr. NH Kim (CEO of NH EMG) for giving me the opportunity to work as a member of U-KISS, and to thank all of my fellow NH EMG staffs for their care.

Nevertheless, I would like to thank my U-KISS members. During these 4 years, we played, we worked, we fought, we laughed, we cried… I have learnt so much from you guys…

Thank you so much for letting me be a big brother all these years… You guys are like real brothers to me… I’m sorry that I could not continue the journey with you guys…

But I will always be supporting you guys! All the best to your comeback. Hopefully one day we could once again stand together on the same stage… Love you all…

Although I have no idea what my next step will be, I will just humbly follow wherever the Lord leads me to.

Meanwhile, I would like to take a rest, do something meaningful, and upgrade myself.

Lastly, it was my honor to work for my beloved KISSme from all around the world.

I won’t say this is a goodbye. Hope to see you all again very soon as a new Xander.

Thank you so so so much & I love y’all always…♥”

He then quoted lyrics from Boyz II Men’s End of the Road, “Although we’ve come, to the End of the road, still I can’t let go…”

Although it’s sad to see him go, KISSme’s all around the world probably have a little peace of mind to hear such positivity from Xander...hwaiting oppa~

TVXQ’s Yunho wears a fan-given shemagh

TVXQ’s Yunho received a unique birthday present from an Arabian fan!

Although it’s been a while since Yunho’s birthday, an online community site recently posted this picture of Yunho wearing a shemagh. The picture was a still-cut from an interview that the star held with ‘KBS WORLD‘.

On Yunho’s birthday, an Arabian fan sent him a patterned scarf. Yunho, who received the present, became instantly interested in the item. Noting Yunho’s interest in the shemagh, the interviewer helped him try it on. The charismatic star smiled brightly, and seemed really pleased with the fan’s gift.

Netizens commented, “Arab-Shin-Ki. It’s Hijab-Yunho!”, “Hijab-Yunho has been revealed to the public!“, “His facial expression is so cute.”, and “Yunho is showing off his present from his fan. That fan must be going crazy with happiness.”

[News] 110304 Choi Jonghun Panics Over Acting Debut

FT Island’s Choi Jonghun tells us about how he felt debuting as an actor.

On 4th March, Japan’s news agency, Sankei Sports, reported about the press conference of the movie “You’re My Pet”, which was held on 3rd March at Ibaraki Airport.

Besides the movie’s main cast Jang Geunsuk and Kim Haneul, Choi Jonghun who is making his first acting debut also attended the event. In the movie “You’re My Pet”, Choi Jonghun will be playing the role of Kim Hanuel’s younger brother.

According to Sankei Sports, a total of 3,000 Japanese fans came to support the event. During the press conference, Choi Jonghun said that, “I panicked when it was decided that I’m part of the cast. I’m trembling now too, but not sure if it’s due to the cold weather or I’m really too nervous.” He received a warm round of applause from the fans.

Based on a Japanese manga, the movie “You’re My Pet” already has a drama production in Japan. Just like a pet, the man lives in the house of the female lead. The movie depicts how the “pet” meets his mistress and how their love develops.

Jang Geunsuk plays the role of In Ho, a classic ballet dancer with great promise. He has the dreams of becoming a musical actor and a dancer. Kim Hanuel plays the role of Ji Eun, who has both beauty and capability but is clumsy when it comes to relationships.
