[News] JYP Entertainment’s single eyelid stars gain attention
For those familiar with K-pop and beauty standards in Asian countries, you know that double eyelids are one of the most obsessed about factors in one’s appearance. However, JYP Entertainment‘s single eyelid stars have recently been gaining attention as examples of celebrities who have no problems shining even without the coveted double eyelids.
On April 25th, an online community post titled, “JYP stars with single eyelid (monolid)” surfaced with the above photo.
The post features four highly prominent stars that are part of the JYPE lineup, which include Jinwoon of 2AM, Wooyoung of 2PM, Sohee of Wonder Girls, and J.Y. Park himself. Considering that these stars command a great deal of popularity inside and outside of Korea, it seems that the double eyelid infatuation may not be so prominent after all, at least in the world of JYP Entertainment.
Netizens who viewed the post commented, “I actually think single eyelid stars have unique attraction” , “I never knew J.Y. Park didn’t have double eyelids” and, “Don’t ever get double eyelid surgery!”

Everyone, I will be returning as a singer after 2 years. The album is called, 'Spring. Five Songs I'm Sending to a New Love'. At midnight on April 22nd, I'll be releasing my duet song with a female singer, 'Someone Else'. At midnight on the 29th, I'll be releasing a love story about a flashy-looking male celebrity and a normal girl, 'You're the One'. I'm so nervous… hehe."

[News] 2PM Taecyeon Gets an A+ in Flirting
2PM's Taecyeon made it to 9gag.com, the U.S.-based popular comedy website, for his "flirting skills." On April 15, Taecyeon alerted his fans by retweeting the link to his picture on 9gag, saying, "HOLY CRAP! Me on 9GAG LOL RT."
In the photo, Taecyeon is seen making a move on a female student sitting next to him, in what looks to be his college classroom. It looks like he said something funny, as the two girls next to him are giggling in amusement. 9gag aptly titled the moment, "Flirting level: A+," and came up with quotes that said, "Hey girl, what's your sine? It must be pi/2 because you are the 1."
However, the joke didn't come across as clear enough to most of the viewers as many comments expressed their confusion over the formula. In order to make sense, some claimed it should be written "arcsine" instead of "sine," but most of the fans just seemed more interested in finding out who Taecyeon was.
Netizens commented, "I don't get it," "The girl is just happy because a K-Pop artist talked to her," and "I smell racism here."
