Singer, producer, composer, and big man CEO, Park Jin Young (JYP), has decided to go even bigger by creating a dance-based movie. On the 23rd, MBC ‘Section TV (섹션TV 연예통신)’ found JYP on the set of the CF he was filming, and performed a quick interview.

JYP stated that singer Lim Jeong Hee (임정희) will be releasing her official American album in about 2 months with the name J-Lim. She has been studying English in NYC for the past few months, for this debut. He also talked a bit about Wonder Girls' new single and album. "Their concept is completely different from their first album, from the music, to their fashion; their dancing style itself has been changed around 10 times now."

JYP then spoke about his future project, a movie. He stated that his movie has a completed script, and that it will be a great movie, with great dancing and singing. He then got metaphorical by adding, "Music is a sport; anything with competition is a sport." JYP closed the interview by stating that he will be brining good news from the U.S. soon.

JYP is on track to star in the next installment of "Epic Movie," although they'll have to re-title it Epic Fail.

Forget about the movie news, he’s actually gonna debut J-Lim in America?  I thought he all but abandoned the american trainees in favor of Wondergirls.  So that means his J-Lim and YG’s Seven will debut in America around the same time.  So it’s gonna be a battle between these two and who will be more successful in the U.S.  That’ll be a fun battle to watch.

he is using his own money right?
well let the man do whatever he wants…
so J-Lim is debuting? Might as well,
since there isn’t much going on in the
music industry right now… powerhouse
voice…

J-Lim, Min, and G-Soul are still debuting. JYP isn’t working with them tho while their in the US. Lil’Jon is working with Min, R.Kelly is helping G-Soul (who is going to be a big hit hopefully), and Se7en is working with the top people in R&B;and Hip-Hop. So it’s not like JYP is there with all of them, he can’t. There are a lot more Korean artist debuting in the US tho.

BoA
Rain
Minwoo (I didn’t even know he spoke English =\)

There are more I think, but so far I can only think of the main 7… So yea, all of them have a fight on their hands.

Oh geez, the big fuss about debuting in USA again. Are they only successful if they make it in the USA? What a poor definition of the word.

@FoxyLady415: it’ll be too late for minwoo to debut in usa especially that he’s going to the army next year

“their dancing style itself has been changed around 10 times now.”

really?

Jeez. Didn’t he learn anything from SuJu’s major flop of a movie?
Ew, a dance movie. -_- Haha. I’m not watching it, especially if it’s going to have anything stupid like the Wondergirls’ “Tell Me” dance. (Okay, don’t murder me, guys...I’m just stating my opinion on it. Which is that it’s stupid. raspberry)

It’s probably gonna be a Step-up kinda movie…
i guess i’m kinda anticipating but yea…

I just want to hear J-Lim, Min, and G-soul!
Can’t wait for Lim’s album =]

it wont be epic fail considering how many tickets epic movie sold. he will probably play a small role (ie. gay leprechaun).  probably doing it for free too since i doubt the producers find any incentive in hiring him.

I don’t know this Epic..will look it up. But I got to say..this man is creepy. Hahaha (newyork’s comment)..I also nominate JYP to play gay leprechaun..that’s perfect! JYP’s moves are a little gay and more suitable for the girls..so I don’t know how this will project onto a hardcore dance-off kind of movie. Oh well..Bring on the sequence!! So sassy!

when the movie comes out, it better be good or else epik has indeed failed..

Hmmm...R. Kelly helping G-Soul?  They must not know he’s a known pedophile and is in fact, on trial RIGHT NOW (he’s been postponing it for 6 years, but everyone in the US heard about it. A lot of media coverage, parodies of the man, and everything)for having sex ON TAPE no less, with a 12 year old and pissed in her mouth.  In addition, the man has a restraining order against him from trying to pick up girls SCHOOL!  Is he gonna help G-Soul from jail?  Show him how to piss on a 13 year old????

Why link your name with R. Kelly?  I can see if this was new news, but...IT AIN’T!

People really need to do their research before they link up with folks....Of all the people in the industry...A pedo?

I meant, “pick up girls AT school”.

Heh. Heh.  Heh.

If it’s anything like Step Up (the original..not the crappy second “movie"), I’d consider watching it. Although I expect that it’s going to be a hit if they put in the Wonder Girls. I mean, most guys I know are in love with them.
