"Fans can't get enough! Hearts2Hearts turns Iito Tinyping in THIS Wholesome MV"
When K-pop Meets Cartoon Magic What happens when your favorite K-pop girl group teams up with the most lovable cartoon characters? Absolute chaos-in the best way possible! Hearts2Hearts, the rising stars from SM Entertainment, just dropped their new music video 'STYLE' in collaboration with the hit animation 'Catch! Tinyping'. And honestly, it's the kind of crossover you never knew you needed. The MV, released on the TinypingTV YouTube channel, transforms all eight Hearts2Hearts members into their own Tinyping avatars-think Jiwooping, Carmenping, Yuhaping, Stellaping, Jueunping, Ainaping, Ianping, and Yeonping. Together, these animated versions (called 'HatuHaping') go on a mission to help their school friend Hatchuping find the perfect style, all while building up some seriously wholesome friendship goals. Why This MV Feels Like a Fairytale Let's be real, we all need a little escape from reality sometimes. The 'STYLE' MV delivers just that, with its bright, dreamy visuals and a storyline straight out of a children's storybook. The characters' quirky personalities and adorable charm are on full display, radiating positive vibes and a message of confidence that hits you right in the feels. SM Entertainment says the video is all about "delivering energy of love and luck," and judging by the reactions, fans of all ages are totally here for it. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Doutor: Reverter encolhimento muscular após os 50 depende deste hábito noturno Revista do Homem Saiba Mais Undo It's the kind of content that makes you want to call up your childhood friends and reminisce about simpler times-except with a K-pop soundtrack playing in the background.

Music Core in Japan' at the Belluna Dome on July 5. If you're a K-pop stan, you know that's a big deal. Imagine the energy when they perform 'STYLE' live-maybe even with some Tinyping magic on stage.

It's like Shinchan meets Bollywood dance numbers-fun, colorful, and totally over-the-top, but in a way that just makes you happy. In a world where everyone's chasing trends, Hearts2Hearts and Tinyping remind us that sometimes, the best style is just being yourself (with a little help from your friends, animated or not). This crossover is a reminder that whether you're in Seoul or Surat, friendship, positivity, and a little bit of cuteness go a long way. And let's be honest, who wouldn't want their own cartoon avatar cheering them on?

Overprotection or self-defense? SM's girl group Hearts2Hearts faces another security guard controversy
SM says guard reacted to 'sasaeng's' repeated contact; fan denies claim, shares injuries SM Entertainment's rookie girl group Hearts2Hearts is once again under scrutiny over alleged excessive security measures after a fan claimed she was physically assaulted by a guard during the group's recent airport appearance. The incident occurred Sunday in the shuttle train boarding area of Incheon Airport's passenger terminal as the group was departing for China. A video widely circulated on social media earlier this week shows what appears to be a Hearts2Hearts security guard striking a woman while escorting the members through the crowded terminal. In the footage, bodyguards can be heard yelling, 'Please don't get on (the train),' and 'Step back,' while leading the group. One guard is seen forcefully pushing a woman by the neck and elbowing her in the face. He then shouts, 'What's wrong with you? What do you think you're doing?' The woman responds, 'I need to go, too. I have a boarding pass,' to which the guard retorts, 'So what? Why did you bump into the member?' The footage quickly sparked backlash online, with critics accusing SM Entertainment of allowing aggressive and violent behavior from its security staff. On Wednesday, the agency shared a statement via local media outlet defending the guard's actions as a response to what it claimed was repeated inappropriate behavior by a 'sasaeng' — a term for obsessive fans who engage in stalking or other invasive acts. 'At the departure site, a sasaeng fan continuously pushed and attempted to make physical contact with our artist from the entrance area onward,' the K-pop agency said. 'In the process of restraining her, the security guard momentarily used physical force.' The agency added that it had filed complaints with the security company and the guard involved, acknowledging the response was 'excessive.' 'We sincerely apologize for causing concern and will work to better maintain public order when our artists are in shared spaces,' SM Entertainment said. Shortly after the company's statement, the woman involved came forward via her personal social media account, denying that she was a sasaeng and challenging the company's characterization of the incident. 'I'm only 20 years old. Sure, I made a mistake, but how can you treat a 20-year-old girl like a criminal and then release a statement like nothing happened?' she wrote. 'Do you even feel anything writing a statement full of lies? I admit I accidentally bumped into a member because our paths crossed, but does that justify treating someone like an animal?' She posted photos of bruises on her arm and a hospital report showing diagnoses of cervical and lumbar sprains, as well as a right arm injury. The report estimated a four-week recovery period.

Gossip mill: K-stars roasted for making their mums wash dishes, Sammo Hung opens Douyin account, K-pop girl group's bodyguard chokes and shoves fan
[embed] Being a manchild is never a good look. NCT's Doyoung made an appearance on the Korean reality show I Live Alone recently, and a segment of him visiting his parents' home was shown. The 29-year-old idol can be seen making noodles and dumping the dishes in the sink, saying: "If I leave them like this, Mum will wash up for me." Some of the show's hosts laughed, but Jun Hyun-moo revealed something more egregious: "Sometimes, when I know my mum will be visiting, I'll just let the dishes pile up." Im Woo-il called the 47-year-old "the most unfilial person" he'd spoken to in a while, while Park Na-rae called him an ingrate. As Hyun-moo tried to defend himself by gassing up his mum's grease-removal skills, Shinee's Key proclaimed that this offence was worth "20 slaps". Hyun-moo then dug his hole further by saying his mother is "better than a dishwasher" and Doyoung backed him up, saying mums are "just different" when washing dishes. Woo-il and Na-rae remained unmoved. Korean netizens were even harsher to Hyun-moo online, with a thread on the anonymous forum Theqoo calling them out. "To Korean men, women are just home appliances," a comment read. A netizen pointed out: "Isn't Jun Hyun-moo's mum at grandma-age by now?". Doyoung was also not exempt from criticism, with a netizen writing that leaving the dishes for your mum after cooking at her place was "just messed up". [embed] Sammo Hung opens Douyin account Sammo Hung remains hip and with the times even at 73. The veteran Hong Kong actor and martial artist started a Douyin account recently, and has amassed an impressive over 760,000 followers since his first post on June 5. In one video, he shared "60 years of wisdom" among a series of clips from his movies. "Failure is not frightening, it's the fear of failure that's truly daunting," he mused. "Failure is just a temporary setback, perseverance is the eternal attitude!" Ahead of Father's Day on Sunday, he posted a video with his son Timmy. Also included was a portrait of the three generations of his family: Him and his wife, Timmy and his wife and their two sons. K-pop girl group's bodyguard chokes and shoves fan A security staff member accompanying the new SM Entertainment girl group Hearts2Hearts is being called out for employing excessive force against a fan. In a video posted on TikTok by user Sovvsovv0, the bodyguard can be seen choking a fan with his arm and shoving her as the idols were headed into a train at an airport. On Korean anonymous forum Theqoo, netizens were alarmed by the incident, writing: "They're not bodyguards, they're just thugs." The original video has since been removed from TikTok and replaced by ones praising the man for his actions, claiming the woman was a sasaeng (obsessive fan). Another video by the same user shows the woman bumping into Hearts2Hearts member Ian, seemingly in a bid to photograph another member. @sovvsovv0 [english ver] So the girl who was held back by the bodyguard was actually a SASAENG (obsessive fan/stalker), not an ordinary civilian. That means the bodyguard was not at fault! He was simply doing his job — protecting the idol #hearts2hearts #하츠투하츠 #H2H ♬ somebody pleasure x angel baby - fdill Yet, some Korean netizens remained unimpressed. "Even if she was a sasaeng , choking and shoving someone like that is unbelievable," a comment read. [[nid:718804]] drimac@
