Member Yenny stated, "The song 'Like Money' is an electronic dance song about how to treat a woman right. Originally, we had our own Wonder Girls version, but then we met Akon. He really loved the song, and now we have both the female and male perspective of the song."

She continued to describe the different sounds that are to be featured on the upcoming album, saying, "We worked very hard on each song, and we all have different styles, all different genres like electro, very dance-like song. We also have emotional ballad songs, and we have a little bit of retro."

Yenny and Yubin shared their thoughts on the group's overall sound and concept. "We don't try to be unique. It's not like we have to be different from others, but I think that since we performed in Korea, Asia, and America, we experienced both cultures and musical styles, and I think that can be our strong point," Yenny commented. Yubin added, "Our songs are very catchy, and our dance moves are easy to follow, and that connects [to the audience]."

When asked about K-Pop's advancement to the Western world with PSY, Girls' Generation, and 2NE1, the girls shared their excitement for the expansion of K-Pop. Yenny said, "It's really fun, and we're very proud to be a part of it. We're all really close, Girls' Generation, 2NE1, and ourselves. We all know each other because we're going through the same things, and it's a good thing because we can relate to each other."

The girls concluded the interview by thanking fans for their support. Member Sunye said, "The reaction from our fans, like letters on the computer and on Facebook, they write to us about how they've been influenced by us. We're really enjoying that, and I think that's the main point of being the Wonder Girls." Lim added, "We'll never let you guys down because we're very proud. Thanks for always believing in us and thanks for always loving and supporting us."

Meanwhile, Wonder Girls recently made an appearance on the U.S. radio show 'HeartRadio' and performed nine of their previously released tracks such as "So Hot," "Nobody," and "Like Money." The group also performed three unreleased tracks "Ouch," "Stay Together," and "Wake Up."

AKB48 to be Featured in Disney’s Animated Movie 'Wreck-It Ralph'

In Walt Disney Animation Studios’ new movie “Wreck-It Ralph”, bad guy Ralph goes on an adventure with other video game characters to prove that he is really a good guy.

The video games Ralph travels to go from the ‘80s up to our modern day video games and one of the best ways to differentiate these games is through their music. Producer Clark Spencer said, “Music is another way to set the stage and make these worlds completely different.” The score has been composed by composer Henry Jackman (“Winnie the Pooh,” “X-Men: First Class”).

However, the filmmakers took it to the next step and got unexpected artists to help. One of those artists will be AKB48. AKB48 will be featured in the video game ‘Sugar Rush’, which is described as a candy-coated cart-racing game in a land of sweets.
 Spencer said, “We’ve always thought of Sugar Rush – with its nod to anime – as a game that may have originated in Japan. So we went to Japan and got the hottest J-pop group to perform the song that really sets the tone for the ‘90s-era cart-racing game: young and hip.”

AKB48’s new song for the film is appropriately titled, “Sugar Rush”.
‘Wreck-It Ralph’ will hit theaters on November 2, 2012 and the soundtrack will be available on October 30, 2012.

Ueto Aya and HIRO are Officially Married

On September 14th, actress Ueto Aya is celebrating her 27th birthday, but that almost fades into the background thanks to the announcement she made on the occasion. All the rumors about her and EXILE’s HIRO (43) have finally come to an end as they announced they have registered their marriage on the 14th.
They have yet to work out their plans and the date for their upcoming wedding reception, but there won’t be an official press conference or anything like that later today.

Ueto posted a handwritten note on her website thanking her fans for always supporting her and announcing her marriage. She seems to be very delighted to finally make the announcement, although she would have preferred to tell all her fans in person rather than releasing an open handwritten letter.

She wrote, “I cannot even express how grateful I am towards all of you for supporting me even through all the tough times. From the bottom of my heart, thank you… I’ll continue to work hard in order to live up to all the love I’m receiving and send more love to all of you.” She continued, “Is it ok that I, not just as Ueto Aya but as a woman, can experience happiness? I wouldn’t be happier if all of you could understand this and continue to cheer for me.”

He explained that turning 40 was a big turning point in his life, and he realized that, although EXILE, LDH, and his work are still important to him, he has to start thinking more about himself as a man. He has always been trying his best by himself and if it wasn’t for the smiling faces of his fans, he wouldn’t have been able to come this far. Of course, he will continue to work hard as a member of EXILE and EXILE TRIBE.

EXO-M Reveals Members' Secrets & Habits on Taiwanese Show

On September 8th, Super Junior-M and EXO-M participated in the "Tainan International Friendship Music Festival" held in Taiwan, with each group putting on a great performance for the fans. During the trip, EXO-M also spent time completing interviews and filming for TV shows.

In particular, EXO-M participated in the filming of "Love JK," a show dedicated to Japanese and Korean pop music. Although the members have to maintain their idol image, they were not afraid to reveal embarrassing stories about each other and gave it their all when they were asked to play games on the show.

To test how well the members work with each other, they were asked to pass an orange to one another using their neck. As Kris knows that Lay's neck is very sensitive, he put Lay as the last person in line, so that Lay doesn't have to pass the orange to anyone else. However, Lay appeared to be really ticklish and was reluctant to get the orange, and eventually passed only after a little bit of cheating.

On the other hand, Luhan, Xiumin, and Chen were able to complete the task very smoothly, and eventually won the game and received a famous local snack as a prize. Although Kris lost the game, Xiumin demonstrated the strong friendship between the members by feeding him the food.

During the filming, the host also asked the members several questions about their daily life. When asked which member is more like the father figure, they all chose Kris, while Kris expressed, "I don't think I'm the father. I think I'm more like the grandpa." He continued to say that he is always concerned about the members but he isn't really strict with them.

Kris is also really familiar with everyone's habits, such as the fact that Lay likes to sleep on the living room floor. In response to this, Lay expressed that it is cooler in temperature to sleep in the living room, and that he is able to have different types of dreams when the environment is changed. He also expressed that Kris is like to a spiritual mentor, as members tell him everything when they encounter a problem.

Lay also revealed one of his most memorable moments since debut. Lay recalled that he once ripped his pants during a show, and as the size of the rip was big, it created a lot of buzz as the pictures of him wearing ripped pants circulated the internet, to the point where SM Entertainment tried to stop the pictures from being spread around further.

The show is expected to air at the end of September

그댈 만나러 가는 길에 장미 한송일 내손에 들고 girl
 날 보며 웃어주겠지만 모든게 그댄 익숙하겠죠 (이젠 널)

Baby everyday you make 내곁에 있어줄
세상 그무엇보다 소중한 선물 그대만의 사랑인걸 약속해요
Yes I do I can' t stop loving you (loving you oh loving you)

변했다고 말하겠지만 그자리에서 늘 서있죠 (그곳에 항상 있죠)

"2012 Korean Music Wave' Concert Cancelled Due to Budget Issues

The 4th "2012 Korean Music Wave" concert has been cancelled due to issues regarding their budget. Last Saturday, HH Company announced that they will cancel the concert after owing money to the show's promoters, The J Company.

A written apology was released last Saturday, a representative from HH Company stated that even though the entire staff have done their earnest to push through with the concert as planned, the company had no other choice but to cancel it. The representative was further quoted saying, “We totally understand how our decision brings down the audiences, who have chosen our show among other big concerts. We promise to get back on our feet to repay for all the disappointments we have caused."

The "2012 Korean Music Wave" was set to be held at the Incheon World Cup Stadium on September 15th and was supposed to feature artists such as, Super Junior, KARA, Jang Wooyoung, FT Island, 4Minute, Teen Top, A Pink, Rainbow, ZE:A, Girls Day and B.A.P with Lee Hyukjae as the host.

Super Junior K.R.Y Releases 'Loving You' for 'Miss Panda & Mr. Hedgehog' OST

After the release of 'Plz Don't ' as sung by Super Junior's Donghae, Super Junior K.R.Y also revealed an OST track for the same drama, Channel A's weekend mini-series "Miss Panda and Mr. Hedgedog."

Not only does the song show off the vocal skills of Super Junior's Kyuhyun, Ryeowook, and Yesung, but it also showcases the composing ability of Donghae, who composed the song with D2O. Donghae is also the lead actor for the drama.

The track is of an acoustic R&B style with a calming sound. This is also enhanced by the singing skills of Super Junior K.R.Y, a group that has had a tremendous amount of experience singing ballad OST tracks for various dramas previously.

Leeteuk Criticizes The Reporting of His Past

On September 10th, several media outlets in Korea began reporting on the traumatizing past of Super Junior's Leeteuk based on a clip broadcasted on MBC's "Good Day."

In the clip, Leeteuk revealed that he had issues within his family while growing up, as his parents would always fight with each other. He was also beaten while he was a child, and thus felt an immense amount of pressure growing up.

Today, Leeteuk tweeted, "Why would you bring up something said several months ago as if it was new? Our 6th album is breaking 500,000 in sales; we've debuted for 2,500 days; we're trending worldwide – there are so many good things. It's such a shame."

Netizens were quick to comment and concluded that Leeteuk is referring to the fact that reporters are only focusing on his sad past, which he revealed months ago through a documentary, rather than the recent success of Super Junior.

하지 못한 말이 너무 많아요
한번도 당신은 듣지 못했지만
내 앞에 보여진 누군갈 아무나 사랑할 그런 사람은 아니에요

세상의 그 많은 사람들 속에
내겐 오직 그대가 보여졌기에

그대만 보며 서있는걸요
이 사랑 후엔 난 잘 모르겠어요
아주 어린 아이가 항상 그러하듯이
지금 이순간 따스히 안아줄래요

언젠간 낯선 이름이 되어도
내 가슴이 그 추억이 다 기억할 테니까
혹시라도 아픈 이별이 온대도 오늘은 그런 생각은 하지 마요

이세상 그 많은 사람들 속에
내겐 오직 그대가 보여졌기에

그대만 보며 서있는걸요
이 사랑 후엔 난 잘 모르겠어요
아주 어린 아이가 항상 그러하듯이
더 가까이 더 따스히 안아줄래요

이제 난 혼자가 아닌 거죠
그 자리에서 오늘 나에게 온 그대 만이

그대만 나의 전부인걸요
이 사랑 후엔 난 잘 모르겠어요
아주 어린 아이가 항상 그러하듯이
더 가까이 더 따스히 안아줄래요

더 가까이
더 따스히
안아줄래요


 ENGLISH

There are so many things I couldn’t say
You have never heard them before but
I’m not someone
who just loves anyone I see
Because among the many people in this world
I could only see you
I am standing here as I only see you
After this love, I don’t really know what will happen
Just like child who is always this way,
Will you warmly hold me right now?
Though someday your name might become strange
My heart will remember all the memories
Even if a painful separation comes between us
Let’s not think about that today
Because among the many people in this world
I could only see you
I am standing here as I only see you
After this love, I don’t really know what will happen
Just like child who is always this way,
Will you warmly hold me closer?
Now I’m not alone
Only you who has come to me from that place-
Only you are my everything
After this love, I don’t really know what will happen
Just like child who is always this way,
Will you warmly hold me closer?
Closer
Warmer
Will you hold me?
