On the latest ‘Yoo Hee Yeol’s Sketchbook‘, INFINITE announced that they used to have three “unemployed” members.

 

The members stated, “Due to the unit group activities of INFINITE H and solo activities, an ‘unemployed’ family developed within INFINITE.”

 

Sungyeol, Sungjong, and Woohyun were pointed out as part of the unofficial ‘unemployed’ subunit. They explained, “This family happened naturally as certain members became busier than others. Our daily lives included eating, sleeping, practicing, and sleeping again. It’s clear that we were looking forward to this comeback.”

 

They also revealed their competitiveness within the group: “There are seven members within INFINTE. Each member only gets 5 seconds of camera time for each song, so we try really hard on stage to stand out.”

 

On another note, members Sungjong, Woohyun, Sungyeol, and Sunggyu showed their charms, but member L didn’t, saying, “My presence itself is enough, so it’s okay for me to stay still.”

Sasaeng fans interviewed on ‘Cultwo’s Veranda Show’

 

Sasaeng fans discussed their stalker-like lifestyle on ‘Cultwo’s Veranda Show‘, attempting to explain why they do what they do.

 

One regular fan revealed the difference between a regular fan and a sasaeng fan sharing, “We like our oppas with an innocent heart. But sasaeng fans follow them around their private lives 24/7.” A former manager also shared from his own experience, “Of course they go to their house, and they are also present at the studio and broadcast station. It is really a dangerous situation because they use sa-taek [sasaeng taxi, illegal taxi that sasaeng fans take to follow celebrities around].”

 

When a former sasaeng fan, who lived the sasaeng lifestyle for four years from her 2nd year of middle school to 3rd year of high school, was asked why she became a sasaeng fan, she revealed, “Because I can talk with the celebrities directly. When I’m around their dorms or wherever, I can let myself be known to them and I can have a conversation with them. We can become close so that’s why I would go there. Whenever a celebrity notices me, I feel satisfisfaction. Possessiveness.”

 

Another six-year long sasaeng fan revealed, “Just to see them for three seconds, we wait thirty hours because we like those three seconds. We would use the newspapers as bed sheets and sleep in front of their dorms. At first we did it because we like the members, but later on we did it because we became addicted to it. The sasaeng taxis follow the celebrities’ vans really well. The sasaeng taxis even compete with each other. While riding in a sasaeng taxi, I realized that I could end up dying this way,” revealing that sasaeng fans sometimes put their lives at risk to catch a glimpse of the celebrities.

 

A professor who has been studying the mentality of sasaeng fans revealed that it is this competitive edge that seems to be further driving them. Being able to have the bragging rights to tell their friends that they even know the social security number of celebrities, they feel as if they will earn recognition from other sasaeng fans.

 

A current sasaeng fan was also interviewed and shared, “I used to run after TVXQ and now I’ve moved onto another group. Sasaeng fans include a wide range of ages from people in elementary school to their 40s. Some pregnant women even come and stay up all night. There are also a lot of Chinese and Japanese fans.”

 

The fan also pointed out that the worst kind of sasaeng fans are the ones who touch or hit the celebrities, and recalled, “Once a member was walking out and a sasaeng fan went behind him and grabbed his hair, making the celebrity fall backwards. That celebrity hurt his tailbone because of the incident. She did it because she wanted to be remembered even if it was in a bad way.”

Have you ever wondered how your favorite idol stars get their girlfriend/boyfriends to break up with them? Well, Big Bang‘s G-Dragon and Daesung both revealed their methods to the public to everyone’s surprise!

 

On March 26, G-Dragon and Daesung were guests on the SBS talk show, “Hwa Shin,” along with Kim Kyung Ho, Kahi, and Noh Sa Yeon.

He continued to reveal that he pretends to be sick when he wants to break up so he doesn’t have to meet or call his girlfriend as often anymore. After telling this story, he and MC Kim Hee Sun acted out the situation.

 

G-Dragon finished the story by saying, “When I want to break up, I meet up with my girlfriend and talk to her face to face,” and “Meeting face to face to break up is definitely hard. I couldn’t do it before but once I actually did it, I realized it was a better way.”

 

He also shared his two cents on breaking up by saying, “After taking some time apart, if you think you can’t go on without that person, you should start dating again and share a deeper love. But if both of you don’t feel anything, breaking up was the right decision for you.”

 

 

Daesung also revealed that he is not good at breaking up with girls.

He said, “I’m not good at breaking up with girls,” and “It’s because I know I won’t be able to keep the many promises I made. For example, as I was looking at the Tokyo Tower, I said, ‘I hope we can be together and go to that place even after a year.’ But having to break that promise makes me feel bad,” as he drew an example of how he hesitated on breaking up.

 

Then MC Yoon Jong Shin quickly asked, “Seeing as you drew an example from the Tokyo Tower… did you have a girlfriend when you were in Japan?” Then Daesung tried to patch it up by answering, “No, there’s a movie called ‘Tokyo Tower.’” But Daesung went on to admit that he did indeed have a girlfriend while Big Bang had activities in Japan!

 

Meanwhile, G-Dragon and Daesung, along with the other guests shared numerous interesting stories that involves love and separation such as “How to make someone who is not interested in me, my girlfriend/boyfriend,” “The things that hold me back when I want to break up,” and more.

Big Bang‘s Daesung revealed his plan on how he got a girl to notice him.

 

Daesung and G-Dragon were guests on the March 26 installment of SBS‘s ‘Incarnation‘. On the show, Daesung revealed that in real life he is actually very shy. MC Yoon Jong Shin confirmed this and said, “He’s a very cautious person“. G-Dragon added on, “When I see Daesung from the side, he sort of acts like a boy still going through puberty. He sort of teases whoever he likes. He plays a lot of jokes on them. He tells them they’re ugly for no particular reason and makes fun of them, he playfully pushes them around.”

 

Kim Hee Sun also revealed, “I heard Daesung disappears when he gets in a relationship. He gets so focused on his relationship that he just disappears.” Both G-Dragon and Daesung admitted the claim, and Kim Hee Sun jokingly added, “Since you’ve appeared now (on the show), you must not be in a relationship.”

 

Daesung admitted it and said, “When I start a relationship, I forget how time passes. One time, I liked someone who I didn’t really even have a chance to meet often. I knew her number, but I didn’t have a reason to contact her. But I really liked her, and I wondered how I could talk to her. The thing I came up with was to pretend like I misdialed her number. I felt like pretending that I texted her by mistake would be too much, so I pretended like I dialed the wrong number. So I called her, but before that, I had to write out what I was going to say on paper, since I’d be too nervous to properly speak. For example, I pretend like I was supposed to call my stylist, and prepare things like, ‘Noona, what’s on the schedule tomorrow? What time should I get to the shop?’. Since I shouldn’t talk too much, I’ll just end speaking right there.”

 

He continued, “You also have to be careful because you have to talk before the other person has a chance to speak, since you know her voice. If you look at your phone, the phone will read, ‘Dialing’, but then when the other person picks up, the screen changes to the call timer of 00:00. So you can’t listen – you have to be carefully watching. As soon as it changed, I said everything. There was silence, and then she started to laugh. So I said, ‘Oh! I’m so sorry!’ and hung up. The reason why I hung up was because if I kept talking then, I’d have no more reason to talk to her. So I pretend like I’m talking to the original person I was supposed to call for 5-10 minutes, and then I text back.“
