SISTAR’s Dasom Reveals the Physical Traits of Her Group Members She Wishes She Had

Dasom of SISTAR recently expressed her jealousy toward her fellow group members, in terms of physical characteristics.


On the October 25 broadcast of KBS’ “Entertainment Weekly,” cameras followed the members of SISTAR to the set of their advertisement shoot, where they also sat down for a brief interview with the entertainment news program.


During the interview, the reporter asked the members, “If you could steal one body part from another member, what would it be?”


In response, Bora was the first to answer, “Dasom’s waist. Her waist is very thin.” On the other hand, Dasom replied, “For me, Soyu unni’s hips, Bora unni’s legs, and Hyorin unni’s chest. If I was born like that [with those parts], I would have already taken over the universe by now. I would’ve been ‘Dasom Who Came from the Stars,’” creating laughter on the set.

[GET THE LOOK] Strawberry Milk – ‘OK’ MV



After quite a lot of speculation and waiting, a Crayon Pop sub-unit was finally formed! Strawberry Milk are a super cute duo comprised of twin sisters Way and ChoA. As you might have expected, their image is sweet, girly and…slightly strange. This ‘Get the Look’ will be looking at their debut MV ‘OK’!



Take a look at the MV below!:



 You may be sitting there thinking “are you really going to suggest that I wear a strawberry dress with a giant fork stuck to the back?!” Well, no of course not! While there is nothing wrong with dressing like food or drink if you so wish to, this article is instead going to extract the more toned down style elements of this MV. Sorry Lady Gaga!


As with Crayon Pop, Strawberry Milk have a very colourful style that does not expose too much flesh. This makes it a very approachable fashion for many. This is also a look that you can adapt to suit your own personal style as most of the suggested items are widely available in various colours and prints.


 


Crayon Pop, Strawberry Milk, OK, MV, ChoA, Way, Style, Outfit



  1. Closet Pink Jacquard V Back Pleated Skater Dress – New Look: £26


  2. Belle Heart Blue Check Contrast Collar Playsuit – New Look: £14.50

  3. Green Checked Ponte Pencil Dress – Dorothy Perkins: £25

  4. Dark Wash Denim Dungarees – River Island: £12

  5. Madam Rage Large Spot Knit Dress – Dorothy Perkins: £28

  6. Monochrome Fine Knit Polka Dot Cardigan – New Look: £12.99

  11. Punky Pins Strawberry Plant Collar Necklace – attitudeclothing.co.uk: £11.99

  12. Light Grey Wool Mix Beret – New Look: £7.99


Strawberry accessories will probably call for more exploration online, but luckily there are a plethora of online stores that sell unusual, avant-garde jewellery and hair accessories. A few examples of these would be Attitude Clothing, Blippo and Rings and Tings.


So, get out there and explore your fruity sides!


| If you like any of the suggested items, please search for them in the respective online stores! Some can be online exclusives! |

Hong Jong Hyun and Girl’s Day’s Yura Show Off Their Graduation Photos on “We Got Married”

On this week’s episode of MBC’s variety program “We Got Married,” model-actor Hong Jong Hyun and Girl’s Day member Yura revealed their graduation photos to one another.


During the October 25 broadcast of “We Got Married,” the couple watched a video that was made and sent as a gift to them by a fan. The video contained high school graduation pictures of the Hong Jong Hyun-Yura couple, allowing one another to have a peek into what their partner looked like during their school days.


In the photos that were unveiled through the footage, the two of them appear to give off a young and fresh look. However, their good looks haven’t changed at all throughout the years, as their appearance doesn’t seem that much different from their current selves.


What do you think of the couple’s graduation photos?
