Rainie Yang isn’t cute anymore!

OMG! I was also in shock when I saw this too! What happened Rainie Yang! Leaving behind her cute image, morph into a bad playgirl, fighting in the streets with a ‘dinosaur girl’ (ugly)l. The DG got punched hard in the jaw while Rainie was hit in the end. These two shrewish girls were fighting so hard until bleeding just to get Will Pan.

Luckily, for you all… This is just a scene from her new drama “Miss No Good”. So don’t get all “WTF” cause it’s acting! Haha. Ouch!

Wonder Girls Chuseok’s day!

Before their comeback, the popular girl group Wonder Girls has returned to their hometowns to spend the Korean holiday Chuseok with their families. They also prepared special presents for the JYP staff before they left.

Chuseok is a major harvest festival that is often compared to the western Thanksgiving. Koreans spend time paying respects to the family’s ancestors and sharing a feast of Korean traditional food that includes eating songpyeon.

Wonder Girls’ management company representatives stated, “On the morning of the 12th, the Wonder Girls gave Chuseok greetings along with presents to the staff, then left as scheduled to spend Chuseok at their parents’ home.”

The Wonder Girls presented gifts of branded cosmetics to the staff. “You could see the care they prepared the presents by giving men’s items to the male staff and women’s items to the female staff,” shared the representative.
