Horikita Maki’s love interest: Yuzu’s Kitagawa!
August 26, 2008 · 2 Comments
For fans of Horikita Maki you all know she’s acting a new drama called ‘Innocent love’? Well… her love interest seems to be Yuzu’s Kitagawa.
The male lead was revealed today for the new FujiTV drama ‘Innocent love’! Instead of picking someone really young to play the role Kitagawa, 31, got the part!
The drama is described as a “Cinderella story,” with Horikita playing Kanon, a pitiful woman who eventually finds love with a pianist named Junya (Kitagawa). Junya’s character is cheerful and innocent on the surface, but his heart is full of painful sorrow.
Kitagawa actually started out his entertainment career as an actor, before Yuzu got their big break. He appeared in multiple dramas, such as “Meitantei Hokenshitsu no Obasan” in 1997, and he even starred in the 1996 horror film “All Night Long 3: Saishusho.” However, he has been focused on music since Yuzu made their debut in 1997.
I’m happy about for him. I can’t wait till it comes out!

August 26, 2008 · Leave a Comment
Big Bang recently signed under Universal music in Japan.
With this, their official 1st Japanese album is set to enter the mainstream market on 22nd October. And their music will be labelled under Indie label Village Again.
Big Bang, recently, had went in Japan as a foreign artist. They didn’t sing their song in Japanese or make appearances on popular TV shows like DBSK or BoA, Instead they sang their songs in English and went to fan meetings and simple promotions. But now with a new contract and a new album they’re now deeper in Japan than before.
Their company YG Entertainment stated, “Big Bang started out with support of clubs and winning over fans with just their music. But seeing the great response for them in Japan, we decided to work together with the company (Universal Studio) to bring them into the mainstream market With their group and personal schedule in Korea, they can’t advance at full speed into the Japanese market, but we are trying to phase it out slowly.”
Their appearance in Japan is growing larger. They had a concert on March 28th and 29th in Tokyo JCB Hall of capacity to contain 3,000 fans.
Also there’s gonna be an upcoming concert tour in 3 cities in October which is planned to be able to hold more fans at the performances.
But in Korea Big Bang is getting a lot of praised from their fans with their new Mini-album “Stand Up”
For Japanese lovers… like me… I say you’ll enjoy Big Bang! They’re really awesome. I can’t wait to hear them speak fluent Japanese. hehe

Many top song writers including famous SMP song producer Yoo Young Jin (Rising Sun, Purple Line etc), Kim Young Hoo, Kenzie (Timeless lyrics, Into the New World etc) and WheeSung have stepped in to help in the production of this album!
Besides “Love like Oxygen”, Yoo Young Jin’s song “The SHINee World” with a powerful beat and melody is also included.
