When asked about the song, Kim Hwi Dong's representatives said, "We have been preparing for this [album] for a long time. As the first new ballad singer of 2011, we won't disappoint [anyone]!"

miss A Jia no longer has pink hair

miss A's Jia tweeted her new look to fans and revealed a change of hair color. She tweeted that she no longer has to dye her hair so much now that it is burgundy. Jia tweeted, "I dyed my hair to a darker color~ Now I don't have to color it all the time! But...something's awkward. I need time."

But it doesn't seem like she has adapted too well to her new hair color. She later tweeted that it felt like a wig on her head. Jia added, "I'll stop now, really! My hair's been through so much!" When miss A made their debut last year, Jia had bright pink hair. Most likely, she had to dye it continuously to keep up the color. Then, for the group's single "Breathe", Jia was seen with bleached hair.

Dying your hair so much isn't very healthy, so hopefully it'll be the last hair change for Jia for awhile. What do you think about her new hairdo?

Super Junior's Choi Siwon is the son of Boryung Medience's CEO

Super Junior's Choi Siwon has been rumoured to come from a rich family, but nothing was ever confirmed until now. The veil of mystery surrounding the idol's father was finally lifted, when on January 3rd, Boryung Pharmaceutical Group announced they had recruited President Choi Kiho as the new CEO of Boryung Medience.

Choi Kiho was revealed to be the father of Choi Siwon. Choi Kiho graduated from Dongguk University with an administration degree. He originally worked for the Hanhwa Group and Hanhwa Distribution, then became president of Korean Slim Fashion. He's just recently become the CEO of Boryung Medience.

Not only does Choi Siwon's father have an impressive resume in business, but he is also a professor at Sungkonghae University. In the past, fans have always thought that Siwon came from a wealthy family because of his extremely good looks and his mannerism. Just last June, Choi Siwon appeared on TV and confirmed that his family was the president of a trading company, but denied that he was rich and that he did not have a helicopter at home.

Does this change your mind about Siwon in anyway?
