4minute’s HyunA and After School’s Lizzy got together during the “2010 MBC Gayo Daejun” to wish eachother a Happy New Year as they both turned 20 years old.

HyunA was first to post as she exclaimed,

“We’re now 20 years old~~~~♥ ㅜㅜ Lizzy, receive good fortune!!!!*^^*“

Soon after Lizzy replied,

“We’re now 20 years old~ Happy New Year! Receive good fortune this new year too, HyunA keke“

For those of you who may be confused, in Korea you count your age at the turn of each year. From the moment you are born, you are considered to be one year old and as each new year passes you add another year. Therefore, although Koreans celebrate their birthdays, they consider themselves one year older at each new year. Which explains why HyunA and Lizzy are now 20 years old although their birthdays are in June and July, respectively.

It was recently reported that INFINITE’s Woohyun injured his hip while filming for the group’s ‘BTD‘ music video.

INFINITE’s agency stated, “Woohyung’s hip injury was re-inflamed during a recent music video shoot, and he was eventually taken... to the emergency room.”

For the past two months, Woohyun has been attending action school to learn both basic and intermediate technical movements. During filming, however, Woohyun sustained a hip injury that was determined to take four weeks for a full recovery.

Woohyun had been taking painkillers in order to practice for both his group’s comeback and for the “MBC 2010 Music Festival“; eventually, however, he was taken to the hospital for treatment.

“The filming of the ‘BTD’ music video was shot on the 23rd, the coldest day of winter, but Woohyun and L’s fighting spirit was so great to the point where some staff members showed tears of sympathy. Thanks to them, the members’ determination increased and we think the quality of the music video turned out better than their existing music videos. We will work hard to maintain a good condition for their comeback. We apologize for making the fans worry,” said the agency.

INFINITE are scheduled to make their comeback on January 6th 2011.

T-ara’s Jiyeon has been criticized for her stage manners during the group’s performance on KBS’s “Concert 7080” on December 26th.
Viewers have been expressing their disappointment with her blank face, and the insincere manner of how she performed the choreography.
Jiyeon appeared aloof through both performances of “Yayaya” and “Like An Indian Doll“, which eventually lead to KBS’s message board being flooded with discontented viewers.
One viewer commented, “I don’t know whether Jiyeon had personal issues, but she’s still a celebrity and it was uncomfortable watching her. She really needs to become more professional.“ Others wrote, “T-ara needs to write an apology…,” and “I thought Jiyeon was a pro, but it seems I was wrong. Was the 7080 concert not important enough for her?”
Online community site Instiz has also uploaded a video of the broadcast, heating up the controversy even further.
Core Contents Media addressed the issue, “Ever since their ‘YaYaYa’ promotions, the members have had a packed schedule with preparing for the year-end festivals and filming their reality show. Getting barely two hours of sleep, we feel helpless as people who look over them.”
However, they could not deny that Jiyeon’s actions during the broadcast were inappropriate. “Jiyeon has a more punishing schedule than the other members due to her drama filming for ‘Jungle Fish 2‘. But we believe that she herself needs to put in more effort in regards to showing these kind of images.”

A warning bell has been sounding over the health conditions of girl groups lately, as many have admitted to taking an IV.

On December 24th, reporters were able to meet with girl groups backstage from KBS 2TV’s “Music Bank“, and were shocked to discover bandages on the members’ hands. These bandages covered the contact points where IV needles were inserted.

Orange Caramel’s Raina expressed, “Our members aren’t in good health lately. Colds and fevers are common, but because of the fatigue, we’re not in good condition. I just got an IV at the hospital before coming here. Maybe it’s because of my cold, but my throat is closed up, so I’m worried about my live.”

In SISTAR’s waiting room are medicine bags labelled with Hyorin and Bora’s names. Hyorin revealed, “Sometimes we get IV treatments at the hospital and get medicine. All of our members got an IV before coming here.”

Trio group VNT added, “Yumi isn’t in good condition and got an IV as well.”

SECRET, who created two hits this year with “Madonna” and “Magic,” expressed some of their fatigue as well. Member Zinger was revealed to have been in the hospital for laryngitis recently.

TS Entertainment, their agency, stated, “Zinger had a fever along with laryngitis so she got treated at the hospital in addition to receiving an IV. She’s gotten a lot better now, and is just taking medicine.”

The reason for their deteriorating health is their killer schedule. Girl groups are also forced to work in unfavorable conditionsm such as having to wear mini-skirts, hot pants, and tube tops in freezing weather. Such outfits have recently developed into a controversy with T-ara‘s outdoor ‘Yayaya‘ performace.

Girl groups are also not given ample time to rest. With many year-end ceremonies to prepare for and unending event schedules lined up, those that are lucky get around 2-3 hours of sleep at best.

Starship Entertainment, SISTAR’s agency, revealed, “Because of their busy schedule, the members haven’t been able to rest properly. We’re trying to give them a break period as best as we can, but with preparations for year-end events, interviews, and broadcast programs, it’s not as easy as we thought.”

Regardless of such conditions, these talented girls have managed to get up on stage and show off their vocals while executing perfect dance choreographies, impressing many with their ‘professional mindset.’

JYJ’s Yoochun posted a new tweet that’s become the center of hot attention. A shoutout to his younger brother, Yoohwan, seems innocuous enough, but netizens believe that it hints at greater things.

On December 25th, he wrote, “Yoohwan, whom I love!!!! ^^ Do well from now on.”

The picture uploaded with the tweet shows off his brother’s masculine charisma, which stands in contrast to Yoochun’s characteristic ‘flowerboy image’.

The ‘Do well from now on‘ line has led to speculations that Yoohwan could be debuting in the music industry.

Netizens commented, “This is the first time that I am seeing a clear face of him,” and “Is he debuting in the industry soon?”

Super Junior’s Kim Heechul will be joining CNBLUE’s Jung Yonghwa, 2AM’s Jo Kwon and actress Hwang Jung Eum as an MC for the upcoming “2010 SBS Gayo Daejun“.

This will be Yonghwa and Heechul’s second consecutive time as an MC for the same show. Last year, Yonghwa made several mistakes (since it was his first time MCing for a large-scale event), and was cruelly dubbed as an ‘MC Nuisance’.

During the 600th episode special on SBS’s ‘Inkigayo‘, Heechul said to Yong Hwa, “You’re doing well now. I think you’re developing more through MCing “Inkigayo”.”

The “2010 SBS Gayo Daejun” will be broadcasted live on December 29th
