Rookie idol group Infinite to appear on Mnet reality show “Will they be the 2nd 2PM?”

Rookie idol group Infinite groomed by hip hop group Epik High will be revealing themselves through a Mnet reality program.

7-member group Infinite has garnered much interests even before their debut, and they will be showing themselves for the first time on Mnet idol theatre ‘You are my elder brother’ aired on 12th April. For the purpose of the reality program, from the first episode, a high school female student will be introduced into their dormitory. Confused, the members reportedly asked “What is going on? What is the meaning of this?”.

Tablo then came in to explain, “The one person who succeeds as a elder brother will be the nation’s elder brother.”

Since they never had a female in their dormitory, the members were flustered as well as excited with the joining of the female high school student. “I always wished to have a younger sister. I have confidence to take good care of her.”

Mnet said, “With the numerous number of idol groups in the music industry now, many have taken the course of going on reality show to display their various charms.”

Similar to what 2PM did with ‘Wild Bunny’, Infinite will take on the challenge to be the nation’s top idol group through ‘You Are My Elder Brother’. The first episode will be aired on 12th April at 7.30pm.

Epik High’s Tablo to sue netizen for defamation

It has been reported that Epik High’s leader Tablo (real name: Lee Sun Woong) is pressing charges against a specific netizen “for defamation.”

Seoul Mapo Police Station stated on the 28th, “Mr. Lee filed in his letter of complaint for requesting to press legal charges on a netizen who spread false rumors online. The rumors were suggesting that my academic backgrounds were all false.”

To protect the reporter’s identity, the policeman only revealed that Mr. Lee was a celebrity of Canadian nationality who has reportedly graduated Stanford University.

According to the police, a netizen has repeatedly posted his claims online that he’s proved that Tablo was lying about his seemingly-flawless educational background all along. Netizens and fans alike were shocked to hear the story, as they were more than aware of Tablo’s Stanford history.

Apparently, that netizen couldn’t find the name Daniel Armand Lee under the list of Stanford graduates. He also predicted Tablo’s family will be ostracized from society, whereas his company will go bankrupt because of his unforgivable lie.
