Remember how A-PRINCE had planned to hold a ‘tea cafe’ event for their 100th day?

Well, the boys kept their promise and dressed up in chic black and white outfits, making for quite a sight as the flower-boy baristas served coffee and tea for their fans!

The event actually started when the boys came out into the streets to promote their event, telling fans to come visit them at the store. Naturally, fans as well as passersby started pouring into the store unable to resist their charms.

The boys then shed their coats and emerged in their matching outfits, complete with a tie and apron to get ready to demonstrate their skills.

As soon as the clock hit 3PM, fans crowded into the cafe, ordering and snapping photos of their favorite idol. The boys worked diligently throughout the entire shift, making iced coffee, taking orders, and making sure they went to the right customers.

Congratulations to A-PRINCE on their 100th day, and you can also check out footage from the event below!

Subject: Taeyang and Hyunseung reunite at a friend’s house

An old trainee of Big Bang recently reunited with a current member.

Taeyang and Hyunseung recently spent some time at the house of composer Chon Seung Woo and to commemorate the occasion they all snapped a photo together.

The composer shared the photo above on his Twitter and wrote, “Today, my house is full of idols keke. Taeyang and Hyunseung came to visit. Dong Young Bae’s expression is amazing keke“. From his tweet, it looks like the pair went to visit the composer together. Hyunseung was once a trainee of Big Bang and even though he was eliminated from the final group, he has still maintained an incredibly close bond with the Big Bang members.

Being his usual silly self, Taeyang made a funny face at the camera while Hyunseung has a wry smile with his large adam’s apple sticking out. As they’re at a composer’s house, maybe they could have been talking about music? What do you think a collaboration between Taeyang and Hyunseung might sound like?

What’s Lee Joon been up to lately?

He’s been pretty much away from the spotlight, especially after the entire ‘We Got Married‘ fiasco. He wasn’t even present at the ‘Idol Star Athletics Championship‘, most likely because he was way too busy filming ‘Iris 2‘ and his movie ‘An Actor is an Actor‘. Even as fans waited desperately to see him on ‘Iris 2′, he has yet to appear in the first four episodes.

Thankfully, a photo he took with ‘An Actor is an Actor’ co-star Ma Dong Suk recently surfaced online. In the photo, he looks like he’s lost some weight, but he’s smiling happily in the camera. Hopefully, he can get some rest before returning to his fans once again.

Additionally, according to the preview for the next episode of ‘Iris 2′, it appears Lee Joon will finally be making his long awaited appearance on the action drama.

G-Dragon was recently chosen as the model for the makeup brand ‘The Saem‘ with IU.

The brand released a 30-second Behind The Scenes video of the star. In the video, G-Dragon is writing out the project name ‘Global Eco‘ on the mirror with a red marker. But he makes a cute mistake at first and wrote ‘Global Ech’ – perhaps to write ‘Echo’ instead of ‘Eco. As soon as he writes the ‘h’, he realizes his mistake and pauses, blinking for a second at the mistake before starting all over again. Even when he’s done, he looks unsatisfied with what he wrote and looks like he wants to add more to it, but decides to just underline the phrase in the end.

Check out the video below!

Dal Shabet‘s Jiyul couldn’t keep her tears back on ‘Master Chef Korea Celebrity‘.

The first challenge of the show asked the contestants to make a noodle dish. Jiyul took chicken, various vegetables, and rice noodles to make fried rice noodles, and nervously brought the dish to the judges. The dish looked delicious at first sight, but when the judges tasted it, they frowned at the taste.

Judge No Hee Young said, “The dish looks very neat, and it fits Jiyul’s image very well. But I think you messed up the spices, it’s rather sweet. If you fix that, you’ll be able to be a good cook.” When Jiyul heard the criticism, she suddenly started to cry. Her sudden tears shocked everyone, especially Super Junior-M‘s Henry, who had been waiting to be judged right next to her.

She explained, “I suddenly remembered my mom. To prepare for this show, I went home for a week, since I can’t prepare cooking while in the dorms. I didn’t know what to make, and my mom prepared all the ingredients for me because I was so tired and busy. But all I did was just yell at her. I feel so terrible.”

Sadly, Jiyul became the first contestant to be eliminated from the show. But she didn’t lose her smile in the end, and took off her apron as she said, “I learned a lot of things. I thought about my mom, and I think I can be successful against anything I face this year.“

Eunhyuk claimed that Krystal actually had a crush on him.

Super Junior members Eunhyuk, Donghae, Siwon, and Yesung along with f(x) were interviewed on the February 22nd installment of MBC‘s ‘Section TV‘. On the program, Eunhyuk was up to his usual mischievous self. He joked, “I think Krystal has some feelings for me.” He reasoned that Krystal greeted everyone enthusiastically but was especially cold to him and reasoned, “Usually, you’re cold to the person you like“.

Krystal only laughed at his certainty, and Siwon cut in by mentioning that, “they’re 8 years apart“. Krystal didn’t lose the chance to tease Eunhyuk and added on, “Uncle!“.

Getting called ‘uncle’ shocked Eunhyuk, who jokingly lost his temper and shouted, “What are you saying?!” and caused all of the Super Junior and f(x) members to crack up.

Later in the interview, Sulli and Krystal were asked what they wanted to do now that they’re adults after graduating. Sulli said she wanted to listen to 19+ music while Krystal responded that she wanted to get her drivers license and after hearing this, Eunhyuk got his revenge by quickly chiming in, “It’s because she wants to drive with me.”

The Epik High members haven’t been in the public eye much since the end of their latest promotions.

But in case you missed them, Tablo has your back. He snapped a photo of himself, Mithra Jin, and DJ Tukutz hanging out at a street food cart while enjoying a drink.

As the members are busy with their own families, the members must have not been able to see each other too often. They got together after a performance just to enjoy each other’s company, and Tablo captioned the photo with, “The three of us are at a food cart (pojangmacha) together for the first time in a while ^^ … Epik High soju-beer party“.

Hopefully, they won’t keep us waiting for too long for their next comeback.
