SHINee is going to TAIPEI again on the 10th!!!!

{TRANS/NEWS} SHINee to appear at Taipei Arena without Jonghyun due to Leg Injury.

Quote
Korean artists coming to Taiwan is becoming the trend. Having just visited the country last year-end, SHINee just revealed that they will be taking KE 691 to Taiwan on the 10th, arriving at 11am. They will be participating in a special (Chinese) New Year programme called 超級巨星紅白藝能大賞 (Superstar red-white entertainment prize) which will be held at the Taipei Arena. Unfortunately, SHINee will be travelling without Jonghyun due to his leg injury.

First time filming for a special Chinese New Year show in Taiwan, the SHINee members all feel very excited yet raised a lot of questions such as “What is the difference between Taiwan and Korea during Chinese New Year?” When the Taiwan record label explained to them that red packets are used, they all felt shocked and said “We use white in Korea..”. However, because this trip will be very rushed and missing 1 member, SHINee hopes that they can visit Taiwan again in the future to experience the Chinese New Year atmosphere.

After they finish the recording, they are estimated to leave on the 11th at 12:10pm via KE 692.

SM entertainment and mnet settles their differences?


SM Entertainment and Mnet Media are showing signs of reconciliation.
In past issues, SM Entertainment refrained from supplying their artists’ music on Mnet’s website, making everyone think of conspiracy theories or competition between the two powerful companies.The conflict continued, SNSD, SHINee, Super Junior, and other SM artists’ latest releases and music weren’t available in Mnet’s site during their comebacks that is, until the recent release of duo TVXQ‘s (Why) Keep Your Head Down.
Having their single released on the 3rd on Mnet’s official website, rumors said that the two companies are settling their differences. Those among the music industry are also hinting on the possible reconciliation of SM Entertainment and Mnet Media.
Through a phone call in the 3rd, SM told Newsen, “We have been continuously trying to work out the conflict with Mnet. The single was provided through their site after gaining agreeable terms.” The representative also added, “Following TVXQ, we are expecting other artists music to be supplied on the site this year.

Was SHINee’s Lucifer plagiarized?

In the later half of 2010, SHINee came back with their 2nd full album with the title song Lucifer. Lucifer was well loved and won many awards, and fans were delighted to have the boys’ second official album.

However, fans found out that a Serbian singer Jelena Karleusa has just released a song called “Muskarac koji mrzi zene”, which sounds exactly like SHINee’s Lucifer. Many are enraged and are accusing her of plagiarism. But as SM Entertainment has not made any comments about it, many fans are still unsure if this is actual plagiarism or if she has permission to use the melody.

Sometime later, Il-joong has an extra-marital affair with his true love Mi-Soon and they conceive a son, who will later be named Tak-gu.

Years later, on a rainy evening, Koo Il-joong's mother overhears a conversation between Han Seung-Jae and In-sook. She collapses and dies. During this time In-sook loses her bracelet and her son Ma-joon is there to retrieve it. Ma-Joon now knows who his real father is.
Meanwhile to protect Kim Mi-Soon and Tak-gu, Koo Il-Joong orders a man named Jin-Goo (Park Seong-Woong) to kidnap them.
