The Korea Music Content Association has issued a strong statement regarding Min Heejin and the group NewJeans.

On December 13, KMCA released an official statement saying, "We request the following from former CEO Min Heejin, NewJeans, and the National Assembly and government officials regarding the tampering case. We ask that former CEO Min Heejin clarify her position and facts regarding the allegations of tampering that was recently reported by the media. At this time, it is important that Min Heejin, as the person who is directly involved in the tampering case, to provide a clear response. Do not avoid with provocative and vague answers. Please reveal the truth to end the current controversy."

KMCA added, "New Jeans should fulfill their contract faithfully and have sincere discussions with their agency. However, if they can't reach an agreement, they should humbly wait for the court's decision." They also reminded in their statement, "NewJeans is not the only group in the K-pop industry. Many senior artists, employees of other agencies, and fellow and junior artists are doing their best in their respective roles."

Furthermore, KMCA strongly urged the National Assembly and the government to improve laws and systems to get rid of tamperings. It is no longer acceptable to see exclusive contracts as a matter of private freedom and leave it to the parties' own judgments. KMCA continued, "Even if this case could be considered a violation of the duty of loyalty or a breach of trust under current law, the laws and systems that match the specific nature of the music industry are currently inadequate.Therefore, we request the revision of individual laws or the introduction of systems to maintain order and establish healthy practices in the music industry."

In particular, the KMCA said, "We are considering excluding albums and music sales from the charts of agencies and artists involved in tampering allegations on the Circle Chart, which we manage." They added, "We are also looking into excluding and withholding data from the music broadcast programs that use the Circle Chart's data (such as MCountdown, Music Bank, Show! Music Core, Inkigayo, The Show, Show Champion, The Trot Show, ENA K-pop Chart Show) and major domestic music awards (such as the Circle Chart Music Awards, MAMA, Golden Disc Awards)."

Korea Music Content Association: "Min Heejin must clarify tampering allegations and NewJeans must honor their exclusive contract"

 

The CEO of HYBE, Lee Jaesang, reportedly donated $1,500 to the FIDF. In other words, he's supporting the Israeli military. Now, even if we kick out Scooter Braun, it doesn't solve the problem.

HYBE believes in genocide, not music.

-Why on earth??????

-Ugh, look at his face.

-I mean... Why? I don't understand this....?? Idols get terrorized just by drinking Starbucks and he's doing this...? Is this real?? And it's only $1,500?? I looked at the comments and there's a possibility this might be just fake news??

-I wonder what did he get in return...

-Incredible... And shocking... There are so many places in out country that need donations. Did he really need to donate to Israeli-related organizations?

According to OSEN's coverage on the 13th, tvN's new drama 'Resident Playbook' is preparing to be released next year. The drama is gaining interest within the industry, especially as it's planned to be released in the summer.

In recent years, domestic broadcasters and OTT platforms have been flooded with legal and medical dramas, with doctors and lawyers being some of the most frequently seen characters. However, when residents in the medical field submitted mass resignations in opposition to the government's medical school expansion policy last year, leading to a prolonged healthcare strike, 'medical dramas' were put on hold. As public sentiment worsened, it became impossible to broadcast dramas about the dedication of doctors.

An industry insider told OSEN, "We are considering to release 'Resident Playbook' in summer 2025," drawing attention. Given the uncertainty of the ongoing medical strike, they decided to plan to release the drama next year. However, a tvN's reps responded cautiously, stating, "It is still undecided."

Currently, the industry predicts that the production and airing of medical dramas, including 'Resident Playbook,' which had been delayed until now, will resume.

-As someone who worked in a hospital, I watched the first episode of Hospital Playlist's first season and stopped watching because it was completely fictional. There are no doctors like that in real life.

-Finally, I get to see it ㅠㅠ I’d wait a few more years if I have to, I just want it to be released.

-I'm not gonna watch it.

-Another drama glorifying doctors.

-They're trying to clean the image of doctors in this drama. I wish they wouldn’t air this. There are so many people who are suffering out there.

-Don't air it... Do they really have to air it...?

-Ugh, I know people will watch it anyway and there will be tons of posts about it here.

-I'm not watching this. Isn't it ridiculous to consume this kind of content? I was rejected by an ER and drove around in an ambulance, so thinking about it makes my blood boil. I hope those who consume this drama get rejected by a hospital when they’re in a life-and-death situation.

-I can’t stand this.

-Stop glorifying the medical and legal fields.

-It’s just a drama anyway.

-They're just testing the f*cking waters. If they're so confident about airing this drama, they should just proceed airing it right away.

-Cancel it.

-So annoying.

-Who would even watch this...?

Doubt

Knight Flower

'Knight Flower' has higher viewer ratings, but 'Doubt' also receives great reviews from industry insiders.

theqoo

-I think Lee Hanee will not win the Daesang, but maybe the Best Actress Award.

-Lee Hanee's acting was great and it was fun... I watched it without expectations and got really hooked. I also like Han Suk-kyu, so I can't chooseㅋㅋㅋ

-Han Suk-kyu!! The drama was so fun.

-Han Suk-kyu seems like the better fit for the Daesang.

-'Doubt' was a huge success.

-Excluding acting and ratings, neither drama was my style, so I didn't watch them. But I watched 'Knight Flower' and dropped it. On the other side, I only watched the few last episodes of 'Doubt' and got totally hooked. So, my vote goes to Han Suk-kyu.

-I watched both, and I seriously can't choose. Whoever wins, I approve and I'll feel sorry for the one who loses.

-The two dramas and actors have different vibes, so I'm in a dilemma. I totally enjoyed watching those two dramas.

-I'm fine with whoever wins the Daesang but please, if you haven't watched 'Doubt', you have to at least watch it once.

-I hope Lee Hanee wins.

-I enjoyed 'Knight Flower' better than 'Doubt'. Lee Hanee's acting was great, but the Daesang should go to Han Suk-kyu.

MBC Drama Awards look tougher than expected

The roads connecting North and South Korea got exploded

And that's not all

-They cut off the power lines

-They cut off the communication lines

-They built defensive barriers on the South Korean side......

-They planted landmines on the blasted roads......

What's in the dirty balloon leaflets

'Breaking down Yoon Sukyeol's war crimes'

1. Making aggressive statements against North Korea

2. Working with the U.S. and Japan to create a nuclear warzone on the Peninsula

3. Involving NATO and leading war provocations


'Final judgment'

His personality is aggressive, and he has severe war mania. He should be locked in a mental hospital forever.

Without telling your ages, which boy group was the most popular during your school days?

 I was working from 7 AM to 11 PM, and I found out on my way home... It really hit me hard.

While some of us are working tirelessly, the president just sits and does that kind of thing...

instiz

-Getting ready for bed.

-I went to bed early, so I had no ideaㅋㅋ

-I was fangirling after work...

-I was playing a game when people in the game talked about it and I was like 'What kind of nonsense is this?' The group chat went absolutely crazy.

-I was... working.

-I was waiting for my idol's live broadcast since it was their birthday the next day...

-I was sleepingㅋㅋㅋ

-I just came out of the shower when the martial law was declaredㅋㅋㅋ

-I was about to go to bed... but thanks to that, I couldn’t sleep.

-I was about to watch some YouTube before going to bed, and the first thing I saw was that.

-I was lying in bed watching a concert VOD.

-I was sleeping...ㅋㅋ Then I woke up an hour later and couldn’t go back to sleep.

-I was sleepingㅠ My family woke me up to tell me martial law was declared.

-Preparing for an interview.

-I was in my room watching a drama.

-I was at home watching my idol's concert video... and it ruined everything.

What were you all doing the day martial law was declared?

Tells you to place an order because he’s going to poop.

Asks where you live 10 times.


Spends the whole time staring at his phone.

When you live in the same area but tells you to go ahead first.

When I post three Instagram stories, he only looks at the first one and skips the rest.


Swears crudely.


Rubs his nose aggressively in all directions.

Replies to your messages late, gives short answers, and never asks questions.

When you message him to ask something, he answers, and then you say thank you, but your message remains unread for two days.

When he burps and then says 'Oops, Sorry'

When he goes to pee when you're on the phone with him...?

ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ When a younger guy is not interested in you, he'll call you 'Noonim'

Doesn’t ask follow-up questions and only answers directly when asked.

pann
[+427][-10]

1. [+202][-3] Isn't the biggest giveaway when they don’t remember what you said?ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ That means they just don't listenㅋㅋㅋ If they’re interested, they usually remember everything you said word for word.

2. [+178][-3] Just say you don’t like me, seriously.

3. [+153][-0] When they ask you where you live 10 times is so relatableㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ They always forget where I live, my height, stuff like thatㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

4. [+146][-2] When they reply to your messages quickly only when they're bored. Also when they never text you first.

5. [+67][-134] Things men do when they're interested in a woman: Create deepfake porn, stalk, commit crimes, secretly film them.

6. [+64][-5] On the other side, I hate when men treat every woman too much like a woman. There’s no middle ground. Why can’t they just treat women as people? It’s either one extreme or the other, and both suck.

7. [+44][-3] Whoa... Younger guys calling you 'Noona' if they're not interested in you is spot on.

8. [+37][-4] I'm a guy and this seems like a personality issue to me, though? Even if I’m not interested in someone, I’d never act so rude or disrespectful.

9. [+32][-0] I can totally relate with that one asking where you live 10 timesㅋㅋㅋ They really don't bother remembering it at all if they're not interested in you.

10. [+27][-0] Let me add one more thing: They don't put in effort to continue the conversation.

Things men do to the woman they're not interested in
