This will mark Zico’s first producing of another group’s album, but he’s known for producing a few of Block B’s songs such as NalinA (난리나) and Nillili Mambo (닐리리맘보) which both became major hit songs. With the 2nd full album coming up, it is said that D-UNIT will have 22 songs in total within 7 months since its debut.

Song Ji Hyo’s Nylon pictorials revealed

SBS top variety show Running Man‘s ace Song Ji Hyo‘s pictorials with fashion magazine Nylon have been revealed. In these photos Song Ji Hyo is wearing a bear shaped hat with floral-patterned clothing and a lose-fit fashion to put forth a cute and innocent image.

During the photoshoot, a short interview was processed about her as an actress looking at her works. When asked how she selects which projects to work on, she answered:

“If the scenario is good, then I participate in the piece without hesitation. I don’t really think about how my image will change after a project. Because if I think of those thing, I start calculating what I need to do. You have to be victorious with the character in the movie. If you worry about anything else, the obviously you will become less confident when you act.”

More of Song Ji Hyo’s pictorials and the full interview will be available in Nylon’s March edition.
