Clean and clear skin, she became one of the most envied by women
Recently, Sandara Park had gained much attention when she was voted to be the most suitable older woman for Yoo Seung Ho in a survey. Around the same time, she also became known to have the most flawless skin among the females in the music industry. Modelo Dermatology Center (http://www.modelo.co.kr/) dermatologist Suh Goo Il says, “Sandara Park, who is active as both a singer and a popular commercial model, is a celebrity with one of the best and the cleanest skin in the music industry.” And also, he reveals, “She is a female star with baby skin vastly envied by so many women.”
Dermatologist Suh continues, “recently, it has also become a standard of female beauty to have clean skin.” And also adds, “In Sandara Park’s case, she has the perfect skin tone, with no trace of wrinkles or freckles. Especially, in the beer commercial that had gained much attention, Sandara Park’s skin as shown there can be seen as a role model for many Asian women.”
In the ‘Kiss’ beer commercial with Lee MinHo, Sandara Park had expressed a mysterious sexiness with her clean and clear skin tone, and it had received an explosion of popularity.
In addition, many fans said “ We are curious about Sandara Park’s secret for her beautiful skin.” Many posts wondering about her skin care methods suddenly went up everywhere like water spurting out from a water pipe.
In another note, Sandara Park recently came out in SBS’s new talk show ‘Strong Heart’ and revealed her sense of humor and witty talk skills that surpassed expectations, surprising the producers, and it makes us look forward to more of her future activities, not just in the music scene, but also in variety shows.
I myself is envy with Dara's flawless baby skin. Anyone who doesn't know Dara would first think she's only a teenager. Every time they're having their interviews and such, people would always be surprised how young looking she is despite of her age. I do wonder too if what are her beauty secrets aside from her BB cream and facial mask or whatever food she eats. If I have a chance to ask her two things, I'd ask about her secret beauty tips and the other question would be something that's too personal. Lol.
I've been having a hard time on updating here since my PC went nuts. I need to get it fix or I'll suffer from this pain of not living my normal life. I'm using my old PC today and it's crappy as hell. So I'm a bit late so you guys won't mind me spazzing late with this too, right? Anyway, I'm glad I didn't watch the unsubbed videos yet and then when I was about to watch it now, salvation has come; I found a subbed one.
I'm loving the intro with Boom by the way. I missed this guy so much and watching him again makes me feel extra happy. Props to 2NE1 for their great first appearance from this show. They did pretty well. I love the fact that every time Dara and Bom's age are revealed, most people's reaction would be surprised. Well, who wouldn't? Both of them looks way younger than of their age especially Dara. It was quite funny that Solbi looked like a 'noona' to them (Ssandara and Bommie) eventhough they're all in the same age. I personally thought Solbi's around 30's or something although I watched her many times since Star King.
Seems to me that Seung Gi could possibly add to Dara's list of celebrity fan boys, eh? Watching both of them interacts makes me giggle in a way. Mmm. I sense someone's getting jealous.. :P Anyway, I'm such a terrible fan. I didn't recognize during the preview that it was Insooni whom CL performed with. CL's still a bit shy but I know she'll work it. CL looks really pretty here, and I thought I was already over with my "girl-crushing-CLroo" this time. CL and Insooni's performance were awesome! Two uber talented ladies performing together is pure awesomeness, not to mention they performed one of my favorite song in "Pump It Up" game. Me and my randomness again; sorry for that.
Minji, oh my. As always, you'll never fail to amuse me in every move you do. It seems like my skin knows already when to have their bumpy transformation; every time you show off your provocative dancing. Goo Hara (Kara), SeungRi (Big Bang) and Minji (2NE1) knows each other way back before, eh? Interesting.. the Gwang-ju's Pride. kkk! Seung Gi's chest pump was priceless. He's still cute, no matter what he does. LOL
Dara's "You shouldn't be a singer" seems to be really interesting as well. Especially the story behind it. Dara, G-Dragon and Se7en seems to be really close, keeps on hanging out together even at the karaoke bar. They're very supportive with our Dara and my love for them grew even more. It was funny when Dara said that during the time when they're going karaoke together, Dara would sing seriously as if she's doing it for an audition while the others (GD and Se7en) are just having fun singing there. She did well during her 'Get Right' performance too. I can clearly see where she got/learned those '3-set Hip Hop' aside from the other 2NE1 members. *winks*
Bom's story telling about their highly hygienic leader CL was funny too! Bommie's really cute as always. I want to see Bommie perform too, it's kind of sad not seeing one, or did she? I only watched this subbed 2NE1 cuts and haven't watched the full episode yet but we'll see. Minji's "Ero-Minji" was quite a shock for me too but good thing Dara clarfied it. LOL. As always, you guys would know what my initial reaction is, right? Minji's uberly AH-MAZ-ING! Dang! This girl could own any stage she's at. She danced three (3) different types of song and yet she was still able to work her sexiness out of it. I could just praise her all the time and still I won't get sick doing it. Brian's sexy dancing was HILARIOUS!!! I swear, I could see Jokwon in him too. Minji couldn't even beat his sexiness there. HAHAHA!
2NE1 and Big Bang seems to be really open with their dearest President Yang Hyun Suk. I didn't even know they had such contract; having no boyfriends for 5 years. It's quite unfair to Dara and Bom, they'll be on their 30's when they're allowed to date. LOL! Dara and Bom's cute request to lower down the year of policy term from 5 years to 3 years was utterly funny. It was even funnier when YG responded to their cute request and allowed it to go down to 3 years. LOL. I am loving the YG family even more now. YG Family is indeed LOVE! I hope this full episode would get subbed too, I love it and I was smiling the whole time while watching it.
Congratulations 2NE1! You girls did great with your first appearance in a variety show! Special thanks to TessLoveMusic1 @ YouTube for subbing it.Read more...
Here's a video of 2NE1's performance in Asia Song Festival. They performed their popular song 'I Don't Care'. You can also watch other artists who performed there below:
Bom: Right now Dara and I are in the Music Bank waiting room. kee kee. We’re hiding today’s hair concept~ (The thing that Dara is wearing on her head is my shorts. kee kee kee)
Dara: We are currently preparing to go on Music Bank! Many of you will come today right~?… We will be going over to Mnet 20s Choiceafter MuBank today! Do come and play^.^
Minji:Let's try to smile happily today too~^^

2NE1's first CF (11st CF) has finally revealed the 30 sec. version today. All the girls did a pretty good job projecting and acting at the same time especially Dara and Bom. They look the most natural there. They all look so gorgeous but still fierce, I especially like CL's hairstyle too. I hope to see the full version of this CF. It looks really good.
'2NE1 Sandara Park is the female idol star Koreans ‘wish to eat tonics with during midsummer’
2NE1 member Sandara Park has been chosen to the be the #1 star with whom Koreans want to “eat tonics during midsummer with”.
Music portal site Bugs did a survey on netizens about with which promoting female idol group member they “Wish to eat tonics together during midsummer” and Sandara Park came in #1 with 51% of the votes.
Sandara Park’s popularity came from that of 2NE1 which she is part of. 2NE1 debuted with the digital single ‘Lollipop’ in March and then went on to release 2 other hits ‘Fire’ in May and ‘I Don’t Care’ in July, and they are said to be one of the best hit maker girlgroups for the year.
The rest of the survey results:
1. 2NE1 Sandara Park 2. KARA Goo Hara 3. Brown Eyed Girls GaIn 4. 4Minute HyunA 5. After School GaHee 6. T-ara EunJung
[Koreans believe to eat tonics like ginseng chicken during midsummer when it is the hottest, fighting the heat with heat]
Additional: Meanwhile, members have been said to have taken a 4-5 days break from 12th August. Sandara Park has flown back to the Philippines, Park Bom to the States, CL to Japan and MinJi to visit her grandmother. YG said to give then well deserved break off from promoting the pass 3 months.
Sandara Park have become very popular since 2NE1 debuted. She has been included in most of the categories from the TOP 100 Stars and this should be her first time being #1 from this category. Aside from being part of one the most popular girl group 2NE1, she shines from the member not only because of her talent but also because of her bright personality especially her bright smiles. This girl, even knowing how popular she is in Korea right now, never forgets her second home; Philippines. Sandara Park indeed showed her love for Philippines and this clearly gives her much more love from Filipino fans.
I don't really know her at all and I read from a commenter in other videos of her, said she's only 16. I'm too lazy to search about this girl today though so I'll leave it this way. XD I was bored and visited my YT's subscriptions. CodeMonMonSeason2 has uploaded some videos and I tried to checked it out, then I saw this one and watched it. At first, I thought it was Minji from 2NE1 who was talking because she really sounded like Minji, even the way she talks. When she started singing, it was a different story. I loved her sweet and smooth voice and even loved her acoustic version of SNSD's "Gee" and Super Junior's "Sorry sorry." Hoping to hear more from her. Have fun watching.
Okay. I got utterly bored today and decided to set myself free by going through my "artistic" side. As usual, the only way for me to escape boredom is to play with my favorite buddy - Photoshop. I think you guys already know who are my favorite models, right? So here's another Sandara Park (Dara) and Jiyoung Kwon (G-Dragon) photo manipulation. I strongly dedicate this to all Daragon shippers especially to my co-shippers in YGLadies Forums. :) Hope you guys love it.
I would like to apologize for my lame manipulation with this one. I know, not that convincing compared to my previous works but I was really troubled of finding a photo of Dara that could possibly fit well to GD's photo. If I just have a lot of Dara's HQ photos and various poses to choose, then I'd like to work on it the better way but unfortunately I got only few sources of her photos so please do forgive me for this lame manipulation.
I personally like this. It's simple and cute. I've got nothing to say more. :)
Okay, I decided to make a poster for bigbangxsaranghae in her Fan Fiction of DaraGon which I truly love. "My Pretty Boy" Click the title to read the fan fiction. :)
Note: Credit me if you're going to use it. :) Thank you.
Dara's shirt that she wore during Bang's event originated from GD. It is really sweet that GD share's his stuffs/fashion to our girls. YG love indeed is priceless. The thought of him sharing his accessory to Dara was already sweet, now his sharing his clothes as well. YG family is really a lovable family indeed. I hope to be a trainee in YG soon. LOL.
This got to be the cutest part in YG Live TV which was exposing more of the Big Bang's side. They let TOP wear a crab headgear and TOP was being asked to do Sandara's crab dance. This is TOP's soy sauce crab dance attempt.
YG and Jinu told him to also do what Dara said while she was imitating a crab in a soy sauce but TOP doesn't want to do it. G-Dragon came in and let him wear the crab headgear too. He also did Sandara's crab dance and still, both of their imitation was a failure. But it was all cute too. This is GD's soy sauce crab dance attempt.
I suddenly got bored today and made some of my photo manipulations of GD and Dara which is popularly known as Daragon pair. I made these using my favorite Adobe Photoshop CS 3. Anyone could request some favorite pictures of GD and Dara to be manipulated together, just comment me here. So I hope you guys liked it.
2NE1's "I Don't Care" won over SNSD's "Genie" for the second time around. They also got the #1 spot for the mobile ranking. This is the best quality I have seen so far.
2NE1 - I Don't Care (Winning & Encore)
Today's score:
Digital Music Index:7631 Viewer's Preference Index:767 Album Sales Index: 3535 Broadcast/Airplay Index:645 Total:12578
Addition: 2NE1 won 1st place (#1) on M!Countdown yesterday (July 23, 2009) It was a close match. 2NE1's score was 977.0 and SNSD's score was 953.9.

I love this episode! So much funny scenes and more DaRin/ChaeRa (Dara + CL) moments too. I squeal most of the time too. LOL. Anyway, the subbed version is out. heck out the channel of YGS21RoyalAceSubs on YouTube to watch it.
Dara's "don't touch my mask."and CL bumping her head on the ceiling.
Morning Girls (CL, Bom, Dara, Minji) ~*
Dara and her black hat. She loves collecting hats btw. The pic with exclamation mark is when they were walking outside someone shouted "SSandara Park." She was shocked. LOL
Bommie-umma (mom) and baby CL on shopping spree ~ LOL
The "maknaes" Minji and Dara. I was thinking, was there something wrong with the two? I mean, Dara looks so tired and then there was this scene MJ was talking about Dara on the cam. Then Bom picked up Dara sitting on a bench and held her hand while they walk. Dara was mentioning Gong Minji while they talked. At their apartment, when Dara was talking at the camera in their room alone, she was talking about Minji baby again. I can't wait for the subs, I was wondering what happened between them. XD tsk tsk..
They have their own camera. It's so cool. LOL! Darn, I forgot to include Bommie's own cam.
I think Dara was talking about her drawings of CL to Goo Hye Sun then she was shaking Dara at the back. It's so adorable. Bom also shared that YG planned Bom to debut with Sandara Park and Goo Hye Sun around 2005. Goo Hye Sun was shocked about it for not knowing it before, she also added that it was a good thing it didn't happen since she's not a good singer at all. XD
Dara and her Tami (?) moments. I'm not sure with her bunny's name though. Also, I think she's saying that Tami's (?) mom is CL. LOL XD really need subs ASAP!
Park Sisters moments!! They were singing and dancing Seungri's "So sexy" when they saw CL wearing her smexy PJs. XD
Bom invading CL's teritory. LOL! XD
DaRin/ChaeRa (Dara + CL ) MOMENTS! ♥ They are sooo adorkable! Poor Minji, Dara doesn't want her to appear on her camera. She went to CL-roo instead and treated her like a baby.. it's soo cute but poor Minji though. Come here MJ baby, Kawen-unnie will make you her baby.. Kyah~! XD BTW, that hand patting on CL's head belongs to Dara.
This is my favorite ChaeRa/DaRin moments. ~^^~ CL hugging Dara!! Sooo sweet ~!
If you'll use my screen shots please do credit me or please do not hot link. :) Thanks.
