UPDATED: Punk's Not Dead: Taeyang For Elle Korea's November Issue

Big Bang's Taeyang will be releasing his much anticipated new album, " New World " on November 8th (supposedly), three years after 2010's " Solar ".  He's certainly done a lot of changing since then, and this photo shoot is proof that the 2010 version of Taeyang is long gone. As of today YG has announced that this new album is a total departure from his usual style .  While that is no big surprise, I'm really interested to know what direction he went in and to see how well it will work for him.  Good luck, Taeyang!  Hopefully you won't need it, but I'm thinking you might. Edited to add: Full English trans of the interview + Unseen pics from the photoshoot.

UPDATED: SHINee is Grown And Sexy For Arena Homme+'s October Issue

The boys  men of SHINee are set to cover the October issue of Korea's Arena Homme+ magazine.  They've been featured in many magazines over the years, but this time they're special enough to warrant 5 separate covers for each member.  How fabulous is that?  I'm crossing my fingers that this dark and sexy editorial is a foreshadowing of the concept for their rumored Korean comeback, because this One Direction-ish " Boys Meet U " nonsense has got to go. UPDATED:  With official HQ cover scans and all interviews except Key's. ( Key 's pic goes first because it's still his birthday in the U.S.  Happy Birthday Key!) The following are all the images and interviews that are available so far. 

G-Dragon Does an Interview for XXL Magazine

When Big Bang was on the East Coast of the U.S. for their Alive Tour concerts, G-Dragon sat down with XXL, a very popular urban culture/rap magazine. Being written up in XXL mag is a big deal for any rapper, much less a Kpop artist.  You can imagine how big of a deal it would be for GD, even if said artist is one of the most popular in the Kpop genre.  When you do a search for Kpop on XXL's site, 4 articles come up and this is the only one that's an actual interview.  Yeah... I'm excited. It's such a great article.  There are definitely some really interesting things that are revealed and it seems like GD was very honest throughout, and quite a bit more open than he would be for a Korean magazine. Read on and then leave me a comment.  I'm curious to know what you think.

G-Dragon For 10Asia: GD's Joker Card Part 1 & 2

G-Dragon sat down for another excellent interview with 10Asia magazine on September 20th of this year and, as usual ,it's a must read for fans of GD.  In it, he talks about the One of a Kind album and is asked some hard hitting questions.

Another G-Dragon "Controversy": G-Dragon's 10Asia Interview

I read a comment that G-Dragon allegedly said this morning that kind of pissed me off.  I decided to read the article before I jumped to conclusions and figured I'd also post it here.  I'm not an impressionable youngster so I've learned to temper my reactions to things and read before opening my mouth, or wielding my keyboard, as it were.

Shinee's Key Works It Once Again @ Dazed Mag

So when I did my Idol Style post about SHINee's   Key , I wasn't expecting it to get as many views as it has.  Well, apparently a lot of other people heart Key as much as I heart Key.  That post has beaten out my G-Dragon fashion posts by a mile, which continues to be a surprise. I thought I might wait a bit before I talk about Key again but I couldn't pass up posting these lovely pics and interview. Enjoy!
