ydnim)After Child(ren) of Empire made a name change to ZE:A (acronym of 제국의 아이들, ‘Children of Empire’ in Korean), fans of the Brown Eyed Girls have been protesting that the name is too similar to their fellow group member, Jea.
Well, it seems like the hard work of protesting worked, because ZE:A’s agency Star Empire Entertainment officially stated that ZE:A will NOT be pronounced Je-Ah, but fully “Jaeguk eh Ah-e-deul” (‘Children of Empire’) in Korean.
"[ZE:A] just took their first step in their debut, and we thought that it wasn’t appropriate to have conflicts unrelated to music affecting the group. We have come to this decision because we respect the opinion of Brown Eyed Girls’ fans."
Since this is just a pronounciation issue, it’s believed that this group will continue under the name “ZE:A” in text.
After partnering up with Warner Music Chinese Mandarin Group as well as Sony Music, ZE:A recently released their first album Nativity as well as a MV for their song, Mazeltov. ZE:A is now scheduled to have a showcase on the 13th and meet up with fans.
I think Star Empire Entertainment made the right decision – I mean come on, do we really want some big conflict over a name? I don’t think so.

It's now TOP's generation!
After leaving a strong impression with his assassin role in 'Iris', popular idol group Big Bang's TOP (Choi Seunghyeon) plans to show various transformations this year.
TOP will begin his solo activities either mid-February or early-March. On the 7th, a YG Entertainment representative confirmed it will either be a mini-album or digital single, and that "the overall direction hasn't been determined yet but it will be planned to fit TOP's unique style." After his solo activities Big Bang will meet fans as a group with a new album sometime the first half of 2010.
TOP's plans as an actor are also underway. After his screen-debut last November in the telecinema '19,' he is currently filming the movie, "Into the Gunfire' as Jangbum, a student soldier. TOP stated, "It's an honor to once again be involved in such a large-scale production, and I am working hard night and day to not cause any problems for this project."
'Into the Gunfire' is a movie shedding new light on student soldiers' bravery and noble deaths during the Korean War, and is planned to start showing in theaters in mid-June.

Pairing: JinxMeisa
Rating: T
Genre: Romance (a little fluff)
Summary: He put the folded paper between his fingers, but she didn’t notice. Then he took her hand and bent down to kiss it as she handed her the paper and walked away, smiling. Meisa furrowed her eyebrows and watched his figure slowly drift away.
A/N: Since there are a serious lack of JinxMeisa fics out there, I decided to make one. XDDD I do think they look quite good together though, since Jin would be a total idiot but Meisa would keep him intact and still love him at the same time. :D XDDD Icons are included in the fic. :)
Right then and there, her heart just melted.

*I have no idea what this means. @_@; It sounds like it should be a reiteration of the first line? Idk.
This sounds more like they'll be promoting overseas with just the tour, but there's always that chance of a proper promotion in a country like Japan or China. I wonder where they'll go, if they do. My bets are on Japan, because I hear f(x) is supposed to be promoting in China. And at least Sooyoung speaks Japanese. xD
