​Red Velvet 'Power Up' for the first time

Red Velvet gave audiences a first-look of "Power Up" on this week's 'Knowing Brothers'.

In addition to the fun and games, Red Velvet performed a part of their new song for the first time on 'Knowing Brothers'! Before the dance, however, the girls had to receive a quirky punishment of getting flour dumped above their heads. But when the flour came down, they discovered that only poor Wendy had been attacked! Nevertheless, Wendy rocked her 'new look', and the girls perfected the choreography to "Power Up" covered in flour. Watch the video above!

CL is not suffering any health issues!

Picture
​According to media outlets on August 4, it's been determined that former 2NE1 member CL is not suffering from any health issues. 

Back on August 3, concerns for CL's health arose as she sported some drastic weight gain at Incheon airport. However, reporters state that rather than due to health issues, the singer is simply still adjusting to her new home. 

In spring of this year, CL decided to move her home to the U.S, in order to immerse herself more into her U.S. debut preparations. As a result, she was unable to make time for a balanced diet and exercise. 

Media outlets also reported that CL's alleged friction with her label YG Entertainment is not true. Sources claim that CL recently met up with Yang Hyun Suk in order to discuss her schedules. 

Meanwhile, CL is currently awaiting the premiere of her Hollywood film, 'Mile 22', this August.

Super Junior's full group comeback with Ryeowook ​in September?

Exclusive reports on August 4 claim that Super Junior's full group comeback is set for September, approximately 4 months after the end of their repackaged album promotions with "Lo Siento". 

Previously, Super Junior surprised fans with their 'Super Junior Calendar 2018', hinting at Super Junior promotions including units, full group, solos, and more every month for the rest of this year. After Super Junior D&E's comeback on August 16, reports say that a full group comeback with Ryeowook is next up. 

Ryeowook was recently discharged from his mandatory military service in July. Super Junior then headed out to Macao to film their full group comeback MV. However, Heechul will not be participating in the September group promotions, either, in order to focus on his health.

On August 3, Holland tweeted:

"I'm sorry. YouTube keeps restricting my music videos. I tried to solve the problem, but I'm too tired. I'm sorry for my minor fans."

I'm so sorry. YouTube keeps restricting my music videos. I tried to solve the problem, but I'm too tired. I'm sorry for my Minor fans. https://t.co/XzrQeHw5Bh

Just recently, Holland made a comeback with the twin single "I'm Not Afraid" and "I'm So Afraid". Fans grew frustrated when YouTube initially gave an 'R' rating to the new MVs. The age restriction was lifted shortly after, however, it seems YouTube has put the age restrictions back. Some fans criticized the age requirement, commenting, "Holland doesn't deserve this", "It's not your fault", "We need to fight YouTube."
