Reveal of ZE:A JAcketphotos!


Upcoming nine-member group Child of Empire --or should we say ZE:A for short now-- has confirmed a January 7 debut and is quickly grabbing the attention of many with their photo releases.

Recently, more jacket photos from the boys' upcoming album Nativity have been revealed, check them out here:



Goodbye Child of Empire - Hello ZE:A!



I'm sure a lot of you guys are waiting for Star Empire's new boy group, Child of Empire to debut. Well, Child of Empire isn't exactly debuting anymore.

No, the group isn't disbanding, but the nine boys are undergoing a group name change... sort of. They wanted a shorter name so they decided to debut under the title ZE:A! ZE:A translates to J E A (Jaeduk Eh Ah-e-deul) and is shorthand for Children of Empire.

ZE:A has also revealed their official album jacket photo. Their album, "Nativity" is coming out on January 7th, one day before F.cuz's debut on January 8.

The nine member boy group is dressed in all black for this photo showing everyone they're going for a sexier look rather than a cute one.

Their music video teaser will be out on the 5th of January so sit back tight and stay tuned to allkpop for more.

Child Of Empire parodies Lee Hyori


The nine-member boy band Child of Empire, set to debut in December, released a parody MV of singer Lee Hyori.

Aired for their reality show on MNet, the group split into groups of three led by members Kevin, Moon Joon Yeong, and Siwan.

Kevin's team created "Beyond the Empire", which showed off their rock hard abs and masculine charms. However, the group's maknae, Dong Jun Goon, decided to break off and transform himself into the diva Lee Hyori.

The three teams each did some form of video for a competition where the winner will be decided by a combination of online votes and votes by company officials.

The resemblance that the guy (if that's what you want to call him) has with Lee Hyori is almost scary. Hopefully the kpop industry won't have to deal with two Jo Kwon-like personalities.

Child Of Empire's New Song [NEW STAR]

A preview of Child of Empire's new song, New Star, has just been released! It seems the preview was thrown together with footage from their wingcar performances, hence the low budget feel to it. But that's expected as Star Empire, their label is currently in financial trouble and has been more or less pursuing a guerrilla marketing approach for their promotions.

But regardless of the quality of the video, the song is definitely catchy and leaves us with high hopes for the full release.

Check the 44-second teaser!
