MBLAQ's Lee Joon prefers figure skater Kim Yuna over girl group members?

MBLAQ's Lee Joon has joined the list of male celebrities who have a thing for figure skater Kim Yuna.

During the recent filming of KBS 2TV's 'Full House', Lee Joon was asked who's closest to his ideal type among girl group members.

Despite the many attractive female idols out there, he answered that he preferred the internationally famous Olympic athlete instead, saying, "I don't know about girl group members, but my ideal type is Kim Yuna. I like women with a sharp image. It's cool that she's maintaining her place at the top with unending persistence."

Comedian Park Ji Sun then tried to woo Lee Joon by giving him a sharp look, but failed to impress him.

Siwon Of Super Junior Tells Young Fans There's No Shame In Waiting To Date, But He Prefers To Get Physical After One Day

Singer Siwon of the 12-piece K-pop boy band Super Junior doesn't think anyone should start dating until they're ready, but says he's ready for physical contact after one day with a woman.

Appearing with his Super Junior bandmate Ryeowook on the South Korean radio program "Kiss The Radio" on Friday, the singer (whose full name is Siwon Choi) opened up about the dangers of dating too young.

"When you're a student, it's important to stay grounded," Siwon said. "It's not late to start dating after you become an adult."

Yet when it comes to his own personal romantic life, the singer, who Billboard claims is the most followed Korean on Twitter, says he was born ready.

"I only need one day [to become physically intimate with a woman]," Siwon admitted, when given the choice between a day or a month of courtship.

"If a man is confident, he can approach her first,"

According to Ryeowook, Siwon has that kind of confidence.

"Siwon normally likes [physical intimacy]," Ryeowook said.

"He behaves like he's from a foreign country."

Super Junior's ladies' man also discussed his first love.

"I experienced my first love when I was in my third year of middle school," Siwon said.

"My father was pretty strict, so I disobeyed him. Now that I look back on it, it was a good memory, but I regret it...I'm normally the one people break up with first. If my feelings change, I am the type to tell her honestly. So I [asked] my girlfriend at the time to break up [with me] first."

Super Junior has been on the road for their "Super Show 5" world tour since March.

The band recently played shows in Brazil, Argentina, Chile and Peru, capitalizing on the South American K-pop craze.

"South America was amazing, very powerful," Siwon told Billboard Magazine last month.

"We didn't imagine they like K-pop there and they loved it! The fans always make amazing moments for us. I just have to mention how appreciative I am."

This summer, the group will head to Japan for a pair of shows at the Tokyo Dome on July 27 and 28.

That same week, the group will release their first Japanese studio album, entitled "Hero."

The album will feature Japanese versions of past Super Junior hits like Sexy, Free & Single," "Bonamana," "Mr. Simple," "Opera," "Our Love" and "Way."

[K-Pop Battle] 2PM’s Nichkhun vs. Super Junior-M’s Henry

More artists from overseas are making it big in K-Pop, and this week, we’re throwing two of today’s hottest foreign idol stars on the music scene into the ring to duke it out in our K-Pop Battle.

Nichkhun

2PM’s Nichkhun first caught K-Pop fans’ eyes with his Prince Charming good looks when he made his debut with the idol group in 2008, and fan girls continue to go crazy for him.

After hitting a speed bump with a DUI incident last year, the Thai idol star made a comeback with 2PM this year, buttering fans up with the sexy single All Day I Think of You.

Despite his Prince Charming image, however, Nichkhun is as low maintenance as it gets when it comes to dating (all he needs is a phone).

If you want Nichkhun to call you, maybe, vote for Nichkhun.

Henry

From musical genius to kitchen connoisseur, there’s no denying that Super Junior-M member and recent Master Chef Korea Celebrity contestant Henry is a major talent on the idol scene, and his recent solo debut is only proving his prowess.

The Taiwanese-Hong Kong idol star, who hails from Canada, made his debut with Super Junior-M in 2008, but Henry is currently flying solo with song Trap, impressing fans with his impeccable piano-playing and dance skills.

Caught in Henry’s Trap? Vote for him below!
