Girls' Generation's Jessica Leaves The Group

Jessica Jung is no longer part of K-Pop group Girls' Generation, supposedly because of conflicts with her fashion design career. Jessica posted a message on September 30th to her Weibo account about leaving the group. Initially fans thought that her account might have been hacked, but the news was later confirmed by SM Entertainment.

Jessica wrote, "I was excited about our upcoming fan events only to shockingly be informed by my company and 8 others that as of today, I'm no longer a member. I'm devastated - my priority and love is to serve as a member of GG, but for no justifiable reason, I am being forced out."

TaeTiSeo is Accused of Plagiarism for "Holler"

TaeTiSeo's hit new single titled, "Holler" was accused of plagiarism because it has the same title as a 2007 Japanese single by Mizrock, according to Korean news media Naver.

SM Entertainment released a statement to clear up the news. "The composers gave both TTS and the Japanese artist the same song," explained the label in the statement. "'Holler' is a song that's been reproduced as we have completely altered the structure. We, as well as artists in Japan, have the right to use the basics of the track."

The composers for TaeTiSeo's single are Ength Anna Sara Christina and Bostrom Fredrik Hakan.
