BIGBANG’s T.O.P and Jessica Jiyeon to star in “Miss Cupcake” special!
Jessica Jiyeon is set to lend her powerful voice to the upcoming “Miss Cupcake” animated musical television special.
“Miss Cupcake”, arguably the most popular children’s book series in South Korea, tells the tale of an inexplicably mute little girl named Doori who is transported to the magical land of Ursoo where she becomes the eponymous Miss Cupcake, has adventures with her magical friends, falls in love with a prince, & finally finds her voice.
The special also stars BIGBANG’s T.O.P as ChoCho - Miss Cupcake’s shape-shifting sidekick, singer Insooni as The Gray Witch - a villainess who despises color, music, & happiness, JYJ’s Yoochun as Prince Hye, and IU as Honeysuckle the Fairy Princess.
The special is scheduled to air on MBC in July.

Jessica Jiyeon makes a cool comeback with "Last Winter"

After attracting controversy with her first mini-album 'Girl Without a Heart' last month, Jessica Jiyeon has made a powerful and startling transformation back into the girl next door image that we all know and love for her new digital single "Last Winter".
Jessica has ditched the dark concept and heavy electronic house beats of her last single "Bad Girl" in favor of a soulful, R&B ballad style that showcases her emotive and strong vocals. The song was composed by K-R&B legend Insooni's longtime producer Lee Hyun Seung, & features a rap verse from B2ST's Jun Hyung.
The lyrics tell the story of a woman coming to terms with the anger and resentment she felt over her broken relationship as she comes face to face with her ex.
"My voice screaming the cold words at you keep trembling
If I look at you, the hurt I tried to suppress feels like it will explode.
They were all memories that distanced and passed away from us like a movie
Every night I made a determination that I would not be shaken again."
"Go back down your path forgetting about me
I can't stop you, I couldn't if I wanted.
If I just extend my hands out you will be there, but I won't do that.
I couldn't if I tried."
Jessica's new style is bound to please her fans who were turned off by the singer's foray into dance music & reliance on shock imagery for "Bad Girl", which underperformed on the charts after it was banned from broadcast by KBS and criticized by the Ministry of Family & Gender Equality.
Speaking exclusively to AllKFlop, White Entertainment Co-CEO KellyRose Spires had this to say about Jessica's comeback: "Jessica was being pushed by a certain unnamed business partner of mine into releasing a style of music that she was not comfortable with. Vulgar lyrics and low-rent nude photoshoots are fine for some artists, but that's not who Jessica is. "Last Winter" is a new beginning for Jessica; it signifies her performing the type of music that she was born to do, and we are very confident that this song will appeal to the public in a way that no Girls' Revolution song, solo or otherwise, has before. Please support this song so we can beat Huh Gak on the charts."
"Last Winter", which was released to digital retailers earlier today, is already in the top five of most real-time charts, and has received an average rating of 4.5/5 stars from users. The only negative reception so far has been from 2NE1's Blackjacks, who have left many mean-spirited spam comments on Melon and Soribada.
Some of these comments included, "This song is BORING!", "Jessica who? Dara slays this bitch", and "Yawn, Elizabeth Taylor Wannabe was decent but this is so lame. 2NE1 please hurry up and come to America!"
Expect Jessica to set hearts aflame when she debuts "Last Winter' on Music Bank on the 11th alongside her close friends Wonder Girls. And as always, keep an eye on AKF for more.

Big stars join Jessica Jiyeon for her epic “Bad Girl” MV!

Jessica Jiyeon has officially shattered her nice girl image with the dark & sleek MV for her new single “Bad Girl”!
JYJ’s Junsu and K-R&B legend Insooni guest star in the bloody revenge tale set in the Tokyo underground.
Acclaimed photographer & director Kazuaki Kiriya [best known for his work with Japanese superstar Hikaru Utada, as well as the hit 2009 historical fantasy film Goemon], has crafted a 10 minute mini film that pays homage to both Quentin Tarantino’s Kill Bill as well as the popular manga and anime, Durarara!!.
In the MV Jessica portrays a dullahan: a legendary headless Irish spirit that wanders the land punishing the wicked. Only in Bad Girl, Jessica is not headless but heartless. She combs the seedy underbelly of Tokyo in search of the man that (literally) stole her heart {Junsu}. Along the way she seeks guidance from a mysterious woman {Insooni} who points her in the right direction, and fights through an army of criminals before reclaiming her heart & taking down the one that stole it.
Netizen responses to both the song & the MV have been positive so far: “Holy s**t!!! Jessica was slicing and dicing better than Uma Thurman! The video will be banned in t-minus 3...2...”, “XIAH JUNSU OPPAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!! ^o^”, “I love the song! It’s the complete opposite of Love Is?, which was fantastic. I'm glad she didn't release some weepy ballad as her main single. Kudos to her for taking a risk.”, “I’m a girl & even I want Jessica! Junsu + Jessica = SEXIEST MV EVER!”
