Boyfriend holds a signing event for a cosmetic shop



Group Boyfriend, who has become popular both in Korea and Japan, held a signing event on September 22 in Daegu to celebrate the opening of the cosmetic brand store dearberry.
The store looks sweet and cute on the outside like desert stores in Europe, where they sell cakes, macaroons, and ice cream. A big ribbon sculpture, which will be used as a symbol for the store, shines at night and draws attention from girls.
Boyfriend’s Min Woo says, “We also use several products from the store. The ‘Moisture Mist’ in particular, helps us to keep our skin soft in dry cars and airplanes. It feels like we are at a cute toy store. As a representative group for the brand, we feel very proud and happy.”

The brand will hold various opening events until the end of September to give their customers a variety of presents.
The brand, which was launched in May, is loved by female customers in their teens and twenties.  More details can be checked through its website (www.daerberry.com).

The Average Weight of Boy Groups


Following the popular rankings of girl groups by average height, a new chart, recording the average weight of boy groups, has attracted a lot of attention among netizens. The bar graph ranked the boy bands’ average weight from lightest to heaviest. Teen Top was the lightest with 55.1kg (121.5lbs), while 2PM took home the title as the heaviest boy group with 69.1kg (152.3lbs).
In addition, the graph draws particular attention on naming each range of weight that are divided into five big groups. Each group is indicated in colors of red, orange, yellow, green and blue, and titled, “Am I alive,” “Enough said,” “Close to average,” “The average,” and “Desirable weight.”
Many female netizens were shocked to see that some of their favorite male idols weighed approximately the same as they do. In fact, Teen Top, SHINee, Infinite, ZE:A, Twilight, and FT Island weighed under 60kg (132.3 pounds).
Netizens commented, “Teen Top and I weigh about the same...how sad,” “Oh my, they weigh less than I do! Please take some of my weight,” “I want to cry,” and more.
