The One”s OST for “Gu Family Book” Climbs Again with the Drama

The One′s OST piece for MBC′s Gu Family Book, Best Wishes to You, has been soaring on the popularity of the drama and Lee Seung Gi, topping OST charts and landing on high ranks of online music charts.

Best Wishes to You, which was released on May 20, had appeared on the top ranks of online charts as soon as it was released, despite the fact that it hadn′t even appeared in the drama yet.

As the song has started to play in the drama with Lee Seung Gi and Suzy′s love line, it has started to climb again on the charts. It also became the no. 1 OST on KBS2Music Bank′s OST chart and Mnet M Countdown′s OST chart.

Best Wishes to You is a ballad written by former One Two member Oh Chang Hoon and composer Park Sung Ho. The One′s powerful vocals have helped make love scenes in the drama more dramatic.

The One has thus managed to score yet another OST success, after his OST for SBS′ That Winter, the Wind Blows, Winter Love, also became a hit.

The singer is currently preparing his own new album.

“You Are The One In The Centre! You Are SNSD’s Image!” | SNSD Korean
[Stickied + Wall of Text] Dunno if I should have written about this…but I really wanted to. And seeing as her birthday is coming soon, why not? As much as you want to talk about ‘the power of nine’ or ‘nothing but 9’, it’s terribly obvious that the SNSD fandom is split into pretty much 9 mini-fandoms. If you are someone who really loves all nine, then hats off to you and kudos, but the larger part of the SNSD-fandom will of course have their biases and what have you...

VIXX are maniacally in love for “HYDE” music video
VIXX has finally graces us with their creepy, probably 19+, music video for their extreme new track, “HYDE“! We saw the boys with black wings in their teaser images. They take on the famous story ‘Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde‘ to their album concept. They’re first seen smiling serenely and dressed in white, but obviously there’s something wrong when we see snakes and other creepy crawlies featured in the teaser. The creepiness goes up a bit with the words “You’re beautiful and I want to own you forever“...

Now they’re back again with their first video teaser, lying among a bed of flowers. However, in between the flowery shots you see burning and gunshots, suggesting that the song might not be as bright themed as you think...

Lee Jong Seok Watches Match-Making Programs When He Wants to Date

After living by himself for many years, Lee Jong Seok has learned how to cope being alone with his television set.

On June 4, Lee Jong Seok appeared as a guest on SBS’ Incarnation, where he revealed that with his TV, he can do everything.

“I’ve been living alone for eight years now. I’ve lived alone since high school because I came up to Seoul by myself to become an actor. I used to not be able to sleep at night because I was afraid of the dark, so I started changing my life pattern,” said Lee Jong Seok on living alone.

Lee Jong Seok added that he’s gotten used to living alone and loves being at home, doing things without caring about what other people think.

He said that his friends now call him a hermit.

When asked what he does at home, Lee Jong Seok said he watches television and just rests as if it’s his vacation. Home has become so comfortable for the actor that even going out to meet his friends has become a schedule for him.

“I love TV. I decided to become an actor because I loved watching dramas, and there are so many things you can do indirectly through TV,” explained Lee Jong Seok.

He engages in conversation with female actresses in dramas to practice acting. When he wants to date, he watches match-making programs like Couples (Jjak), and when he wants to travel, he watches The Laws of the Jungle.

The MCs were quite shocked at Lee Jong Seok’s unique hobbies that MC Kim Gura suggested that Lee Jong Seok appear on tvN’s Martian Virus.
