Speaking of the Korean invasion, word has it that plans had to be scraped for several Korean stars, including Park Yong-Ha, and members of the Korean band Shinhwa, to land at Haneda airport in Tokyo, due to security concerns. Japanese authorities decided to disallow the flight, when it was learned that the last time Park Yong-Ha tried to fly out of the more central and low-key Haneda airport, too many fans turned up, prompting a security crisis. He then required a hasty transfer to Narita International, and a quick exit out of the country–all things that Japanese authorities don’t want to happen again.

Eric, member of the Korean band Shinhwa, is in the news again this month after he was injured on the set of his mini series “Wolf.” Witnesses say that after a stunt car ran out of control towards himself and co-star Han Ji-min, Eric instinctively shielded her with his body, making the injuries much more severe than they should have been. He’ll be alright, but the production company is scrambling to find something to use as filler, as the seasons fourth episode can’t be filmed and broadcasted until his cast is removed and he is out of physical therapy.
Chaos broke out at Narita international airport recently, upon the arrival of Korean pop star Eric, front man to the group Shinhwa. He was in town to promote his latest project “Super Rookie”, which is one of many Korean drama’s to make their debut in Japan of late. Police were having a rough time trying to control the crowd, but were later relieved after Narita authorities decided to allow Eric to forgo entry formalities, and be whisked away via a special waiting car.
