This news will definitely generate a mixture of emotions from fans – it’s been announced that Super Junior’s Hangeng, who has been embroiled in controversy regarding his contract with SM Entertainment for the past few months, will be holding his very own concert in Beijing, China this July!


Last month, officials revealed that Hangeng would be releasing a solo album in Mandarin, so this will mark the next big milestone of his still-blooming solo career. With the words “Hangeng/庚心 (Geng Heart)” boldly written on the left, the poster reveals that the concert will take place on July 17 & 18 at the Beijing Exhibition Theater (北展剧场) at 8PM with tickets ranging 380 yuen ($50 USD) to 1680 yuen ($250 USD). This two-level amphitheater, which is part of the Beijing Exhibition Center in Xizhimen, is one of the largest in the city with 2700 seats and has hosted famous domestic & international productions ranging from classic ballets to Chinese folk dance.
 
Seeing Hangeng taking so many opportunities without his bandmates of Super Junior is probably bittersweet for many ELFs and Hangeng fans… what do you guys think?

Kwon Sang Woo to be fined for hit and run accident

We reported earlier in the week that actor and Hallyu star, Kwon Sang Woo was involved in a hit and run accident where he hit a parked car, police patrol vehicle before discarding his car and fleeing the scene.But he will not be charged according to the police which had been investigating this matter in the past few days. A representative from Gangnam Police Station expressed, “If he had fled the scene and there were casualties, then he will be hit with a criminal charge. But for Mr. Kwon’s case, there were no casualties, just damages to the vehicles and so we will close the case. He will just need to pay a fine and compensate for the damages he caused to the involved vehicles.”
The representative added that Mr. Kwon’s manager will also escape being charged after it was revealed that he had tried to take the rap for Kwon Sang Woo. But he later admitted that it was Kwon Sang Woo himself who was behind the wheels, and as it was before the statement was taken, no charges will be filed.

Kwon Sang Woo’s good image has unfortunately taken a hit because of this, and comes at a time where his fortunes seemed to be experiencing an upturn thanks to good reviews for his movie, 71-Into The Fire. Kwon Sang Woo’s wife, Son Tae Young has also been criticized by netizens as she was seen attending a fashion show on the day her husband got involved with this matter.

PT: The stupid husband corked up, the wife got the blame. Where on earth are you people from?! She is not even there! Accidient happened when people became careless. DRIVE SAFE!
I felt that Kwon Sang Woo is a coward. His manager even took the rap for him. "What a manly way? Shame on you."
