J.Y. Park and Yang Hyun Suk recently participated in a fun game that had them name artists they’d scout from each others’ companies.

On September 7th, J.Y. Park and Yang Hyun Suk guested on SBS‘s ‘One Night of TV Entertainment‘, during which the MC asked, “Which singers from the other agency would you like to scout?”

J.Y. Park answered, “There is one person who I would like the most,” and named 1TYM‘s Teddy. He explained, “I don’t just want him as a celebrity — I’m thinking that he would produce songs for other singers, too.” 

J.Y. Park picked Big Bang‘s Taeyang as his second choice, stating, “He’s so good at dancing and singing, so I think it’d be fun to record together.” 

Lastly, J.Y. Park stated that he would like to scout 2NE1‘s Sandara Park. He explained, “She has a strong charm about her that you can’t see in other female celebrities.”  Yang Hyun Suk replied,“Sandara Park’s nickname is ‘The girl from Mars’. She doesn’t seem like she’s from Earth. I’ve been watching her for several years, but still, every time I see her, she doesn’t seem like she’s from our planet.”

Meanwhile, Yang Hyun Suk picked 2PM‘s Nichkhun first. He explained, “Nichkhun came from overseas. He is very good-looking and cute. I like Nichkhun.” 

He then selected Wonder Girls‘ Sunye, stating, “A long time ago, J.Y. Park had an audition program. I liked Sunye since then. She was so pretty that I thought to myself that I would like to raise her.” 

Finally, the CEO of YG Entertainment chose miss A‘s Suzy, explaining, “These days, Suzy is catching my eye.”

On September 2nd, YG Entertainment‘s Yang Hyun Suk and JYP Entertainment‘s J.Y. Park came together at the Imperial Palace Hotel to attend the press conference for SBS’s ‘Survival Audition K-Pop Star‘!

As two of three judges on the show, both men discussed their judging styles as well as what they’ll be looking for in their future talents.

Yang Hyun Suk began, “I’m not going to purposely criticize or act over the top for the program’s sake. I’m going to speak the truth, and as opposed to praise, I’m going to explain what they lack in.”

When asked why he joined the program, he said, “Audition programs discovered stars based on their vocal talent, but this show focuses on the discovery of talents through the eyes of a professional based on not only vocal talent, but dance, looks, and skills as wells. I think that the other standard audition programs are fun to watch and have creative content, but if I were to criticize an aspect, it’d be that the stars they produce are only popular for the duration of the show, which is disappointing.”

Yang continued, “Once they make their major debut, they face thousands of other singers who sing just as great, if not better than them. There needs to be consistency, and that’s why I joined the program.”

J.Y. Park added, “We’re not in this to create a fun show. We’re in this to find the next Big Bang or the Wonder Girls. We’re not going to distort what we do for the sake of the program, and we’ll be picking and judging as we normally would.”

He continued, “On other programs, applicants need to be exceptional in dancing or singing, but in ours, we’re going to look for potential. We’ll be choosing the applicant with the highest potential of growth. There will inevitably be a difference in opinion between the viewers and our eyes.”

Commenting on the type of trainee that they’ll be choosing, the two gave contrasting answers. Yang revealed, “I’m going to pick the person who looks the most evil. They’ll need character, but I think the ones that look mean and strong on stage are the most charismatic.”

J.Y. Park replied, “I have a tendency of picking nice people. g.o.d., the Wonder Girls, and Rain are really bad at variety shows because they’re shy. I prefer people who are honest and diligent.”

‘Survival Audition K-Pop Star’ will begin broadcasting this December.

Park Sung Hoon stated, “We knew from the start that we needed to bring in Yang Hyun Suk and JYP, it wasn’t like the two had no inclination to join the show. However, the two seemed to have some reservations of appearing on TV after such a long time.” “We believe that they decided to join on because they saw that the show would be very successful.”

“K-Pop Star” is a program that has now combined the forces of SM, YG, and JYP. Everyone is curious as to who will join the show as a judge from SM Entertainment. Currently Park Sung Hoon PD revealed that they are talking with SM, but for who will appear, nothing is set in stone.

The world of music audition programs just got a whole lot more interesting, as it’s been confirmed that Yang Hyun Suk and J.Y. Park will be appearing as guest judges on SBS’s ‘Survival Audition K-Pop Star‘. It will be the first time that such representative and influential figures in the Korean music industry will be making a joint appearance like this.

These two can easily be referred to as ‘Hallyu makers’, standing together at the center of the K-Pop wave. It seems they’ve agreed to judge the auditions in order to find talent capable of shocking the world.

Yang Hyun Suk called ‘Survival Audition K-Pop Star’ a “Talent identification program that holds the rest of the world as its target. We’re capable of seeing talents that the person auditioning may not even realize themselves. I want to people recognize their own talents and help them grow from there.”

J.Y. Park commented, “Age and nationality won’t matter. We’re only interested in dancing, singing, rapping, or any other musical talents and can promise to take care of the rest.”

The show plans to center around YG, JYP and SM Entertainment’s search to find and create the next generation of K-pop stars. The winner of the competition will win an impressive monetary prize, record an album to be released worldwide, and receive CF modeling contracts as well as cars.

Please take note of this message. To all members of the WBLuv International Forum, I believe you will have received an e-mail from the admins.

Apparently, there is a huge number of people out there who have been using other people’s work (manips, icons, etc.) without crediting the maker himself. Or worse, passing off other’s work as their own. There are also a number of people who have been editing and changing someone else’s work without the consent of the maker first.

Please, please remember to credit appropriately and ask for permission first before you decide to edit someone else’s work. If you don’t know where to find the artist, and decide to go ahead with editing, please do CREDIT the artist himself. That’s the very least you should do.

And this does not only apply to WonderBang manips or arts, but to other aspects as well. Let’s live a civil life, okay?

If you don’t know where to find the artist, to ask for permission, let me know and I’ll try my best to help you You can:

• E-mail to wonderbang.love@gmail.com
• Tweet @WonderBangLove
• Leave a comment behind, on this post
• Leave a comment on ‘WONDERBANG EXIST’ page on Facebook.

Please spread the word regarding this. It’s not that difficult to include one line that says “Credits to ____”, right?

Now we can all start celebrating! But please, please, don’t forget about the forum (WBLuv Int’l Forum), which was there, as a place for the Fam Bam to gather when the Soompi thread was closed. Other than that, back to spazzing and fangirling, my dear WonderfulVIPs and Fam Bam!

Here’s the link to the soompi forum: http://www.soompi.com/forums/topic/187604-w-o-n-d-e-r-b-a-n-g/

#1 DBSK
#2 Wonder Girls
#3 SHINee
#4 Big Bang
#5 2PM
#6 SNSD
#7 Kara
#8 4Minute
#9 SS501
#10 C.N.Blue

For more info on each group, visit MTV K’s webpage! Meanwhile, read what they write up on Big Bang‘s and Wonder Girls‘ airport fashion!

# 4 BIG BANG

Maybe number 4 should go to G-Dragon rather than all of Big Bang…but T.O.P’s outrageous pants lets the entire group place on the list! Saying G-Dragon has unique fashion sense is like saying water is wet. But you sort can’t help but say it again after seeing photos of his wardrobe at an airport.

#2 WONDER GIRLS

You may agree or disagree but the Wonder Girls have the best fashion sense out of all the girls groups in private! Eclectic and eye-catching, their style isn’t overpowering and one glance and you know they’re a star.

What do you think? I absolutely agree! Though I think Big Bang could have done better on the charts! And is it just me, or it’s so difficult to find Big Bang‘s group picture at the airport?! O_O Hmmm..
