Idol Leaders Who Aren’t the Oldest in Their Group

2AM’s Jo Kwon (August 28, 1989) Known as one of the trainees with the longest training period, not many people questioned his position as leader. B1A4’s Jin Young (November 18, 1991) He is only five months younger than the oldest teammate, CNU.

Agency ordered to repay partner

The Seoul Central District Court ruled yesterday that Stardom Entertainment, which represents the seven-member boy group, needs to pay 652.44 million won ($586,990) to Shownote.
