Some especially those working in JYP Entertainment has expressed their disbelief and anger with regards to the leaked photos of the Wonder Girls with mushroom-like hairstyles (just wigs) being spread on the internet.

Star News called up JYP Entertainment this morning and the manager of the Wonder Girls expressed, “Photos of the Wonder Girls with their mushroom-like hairstyles started circulating the day before on the internet. These photos were leaked without our (JYPE) knowledge/permission and it’s simply ridiculous.”

He continued, “Regardless of how it had been circulated, the photos have already been taken (without their knowledge). We still don’t know who the culprit is and the motives behind it. Nevertheless, we have put in place new procedures and will proceed on with our original plans.”

“Some have questioned that this is a publicity gimmick by us (JYPE) which is simply ridiculous. We hope that this is the end of the issue. Wonder Girls will still make their comeback with their new image. Before everything is made official, we hope that the photos will not be circulated any futher.”

“The photos have already been leaked which is out of our control but we will not be making any comments about the photos, related issues so that our original plans for the Wonder Girls can proceed smoothly as scheduled.”

Netizens who have seen the leaked photos expressed, “Is this a scene from their new MV?”, “Are they filming their new CF?”, “They look very cute”, showing their anticipation and curiousity for the Wonder Girls new work.

Ron Ng and Charmaine Sheh have had alot of rumors recently. But earlier Benny Chan accepted i-cable channel’s TV interview revealing his previous relationship stating “He is waiting for his old love to return and continue their relationship.” Also Toby Leung who has had previous rumors with Ron has been drawn into it, as it was claimed she was going to compete with Charmaine. It seemed it was confusingly becoming a relationship involving 4 people. A magazine reported that Toby revealed she was dating Ron in her Facebook account. But Ron and Toby clarified yesterday that someone was making false statements and spreading it across the internet.

The reports stated that Toby and Ron had previously paired up together in 2 TV series portraying lovers as well as husband and wife. This led them to create sparks with each other. But Ron’s rumored girlfriend had changed to Charmaine Sheh recently. Although, the reports claimed Toby didn’t mind, her face book account revealed that she was dating Ron and there were also some intimate pictures posted.

Yesterday Toby clarified that she was confused about the reports because she had never signed up on Facebook. Her Management said ” The person who is claiming to be Toby on Facebook had been using Toby’s Yahoo Blog information and posted the same blog pictures on Facebook. Toby has never had a Facebook account because she has always felt there are too many fake people on the internet. She doesn’t know their real identities and not sure whether they are her friends. That is why she will not open a Facebook account. Toby does not know who is claiming to be her and it will be difficult to do anything about it”.

Ron expressed that he had received a SMS from Toby explaining the Facebook rumors. He said” Toby said that the Facebook account was Fake, I can understand because I have also experienced someone opening a Facebook account and posting my pictures claiming they were me. I had to warn my friends about it so they won’t get fooled. ” Ron explained that he knew Toby before she was in the industry and the pictures reported as intimate were just from TV series. He says “The reports about the relationship involving 4 people is just a laughable joke.”

Model-turned-actor Lee Eon (also spelled Lee Un, most famously of Coffee Prince) has died in a motorcycle accident.

The 27-year-old, born Park Sang-min, was on his way home following the wrap party for KBS’s Strongest Chil Woo early on the morning of August 21. He was riding a motorcycle and ran into the guardrail of the overpass, and is said to have died almost immediately.

The news has shocked everyone; online, netizens are abuzz in disbelief. Just the night before, he had been onscreen in Chil Woo’s finale episode, and the sudden news is, to say the least, startling.

Lee Eon got his start modeling, but shot to mainstream levels of fame when he took on the role of simple-hearted but lovable Min Yub in last year’s Coffee Prince. He followed that with a stint as a cable-TV MC, then returned to dramas with Who Are You? and, most recently, Strongest Chil Woo.
