TEEN TOP members reveal their ideal women: Actress Version

Although idol group  TEEN TOP is extremely active as musicians, the members revealed their desires to eventually give acting a try.

The boys revealed that when they get a break from their busy schedule, they enjoy watching K-dramas for the purpose of ‘image training’. They become one with the characters and try to imitate the lines and the emotional delivery.

As a follow up question, TEEN TOP was asked which actress they would like to work with if they had an opportunity to act in the future.

Member Niel chose actress Nam Sang Mi. He confessed, “I’ve liked Nam Sang Mi sunbae since the 4th grade. I fell for her when I saw her acting, and I also think she possesses a variety of charms.”

Fellow member Chunji who has until now stated Moon Chae Won as his ideal type surprisingly changed his choice to actress Lee Min Jung. He explained, “Honestly, I really liked Moon Chae Won sunbae but after recently watching the drama ‘Big‘, Lee Min Jung sunbae became my ideal woman. She played her on-screen character really well, is a good actress, and is very cute. I hope I get the chance to act with her sometime in the future.”

The youngest of the the group, Ricky, chose actress Han Ga In revealing, “She’s so beautiful. And she has a pretty smile.”

And despite trying to say that he “doesn’t really know too many actresses“,TEEN TOP leader C.A.P confessed, “I was captivated by Han Ji Min sunbae. My usual ideal woman is one that is athletic and has tanned skin, but she was so pretty in this past drama [Rooftop Prince], so I began to like her.”

Changjo chose actress Park Ha Sun, who is known for her graceful and poised image. He expressed his affection for the actress saying, “I watched sitcom ‘High Kick 3‘ without missing an episode. I know sunbae’s movie ‘Tone-Deaf Clinic‘ is being released soon and if she invited me, I would love to go and meet her.”

Last but not least, L.Joe chose Ji Hyun Woo‘s current girlfriend, Yoo In Na as his ideal woman. He revealed, “We were in Japan when the [Yoo In Na-Ji Hyun Woo] articles first surfaced. The way senior Ji Hyun Woo revealed [his feelings] was pretty awesome. I put my spoon down for a moment while eating at a restaurant with our members [when I heard the news], but I’m still Yoo In Na sunbae’s fan.”

He added, “Lee Min Jung sunbae is very easy-going and caring. I formally greeted Suzy sunbae (even though she is younger in age) with a ‘hello’ but she said it was uncomfortable for her to accept a formal greeting [from someone who is older than her]. But I told her that I will greet her formally anyways since she is a sunbae.”

Shin Won Ho also revealed that the two were able to become closer through one scene. “There was a scene in ‘Big’ where Suzy sunbae had to slap me but she kept hitting me lightly because she felt bad.

miss A’s Suzy to sing a ballad for ‘Big’s OST

miss A member Suzy will be supporting her drama, KBS‘s ‘Big’, by singing a track for its OST.

Although it has been previously announced that Suzy’s co-actor, Gong Yoo, will also be singing for the drama, it seems that the young idol will be releasing her single first. Through her OST song, Suzy will aim to bring her character Jang Mari‘s feelings to life. As ‘Big’ is approaching the latter, and thus more serious, half of its episodes, the song is said to be a calm ballad as opposed to a cheerful and bouncy dance number.

On July 11th, representatives of ‘Big’ told Star News, “We believe that the song will [give viewers] a glimpse of Suzy’s current drama character Mari’s true feelings, [as well as] play a role in raising [viewers'] interest in the drama.”

After listening to Suzy’s previous drama single releases, such as “Winter Child” from KBS‘s ‘Dream High’ and “So Many Tears” from MBC‘s ‘I’m a Flower, Too’, fans anticipate her next OST song for ‘Big’. As of now, however, the date of Suzy’s single release has yet to be announced.

Lee Min Jung once again garners attention for her ‘optical illusion fashion’

Lee Min Jung is once again receiving attention for her “optical illusion fashion.”

Recently, an online community posted a picture with the title, ‘Who knew Lee Min Jung would only wear underwear.’

In top photo, there is a screen capture of a scene from Lee Min Jung’s new drama ‘Big‘ which is airing on KBS2. With a quick glance it seems like she is not wearing any pants or a dress and just has on underwear.

But in reality this is just an illusion due to her clothes.  It is just a white shirt that she has on under her knit top and she is wearing beige color pants. Because most of her legs are covered up, it just makes it seem like it is underwear.

In the past, Lee Min Jung also received some attention due other “optical illusion fashions” where it seems that she is not wearing any clothes at all. Once again these screen captures are getting the same type of heated attention.

Netizens who saw the photo commented, “Lee Min Jung’s optical illusion fashion, I was really confused for about 5 minutes“, “Lee Min Jung has this type of optical illusion fashion quite often.  She soon might become the goddess of optical illusion fashion“, and “I think Lee Min Jung’s stylist is just a genius anti.”
