Shinji says not drinking alcohol kept her in shape

Singer and Koyote group member Shinji said at a press conference yesterday that cutting down on her alcohol consumption helped her stay in shape.

Shinji met yesterday with Kim Jong-min and Bbaek Ga, other members of her group, to promote their new album "1999" at a cafe near Hongik University in northwestern Seoul.

Because their new song, whose title is the same as the album, is retro, the members dressed in clothes and fashion styles that were easily seen back in the 1990s, such as floral jackets and glasses with large frames.

The music will be released today.

"I think working out helped me a lot to stay in shape, and in fact, the biggest secret is that I stopped drinking", she said as many reporters asked her secret. "It's been over a year since I had done so".

Kim Jong-min is dating a model

Hancinema

Singer and comedian Kim Jong-min has confirmed that he is indeed in a relationship, with a model at that.

Rumors began circulating in late July that Kim may be seeing someone after he was seen on the TV show "1 Night 2 Days", texting "his mom" all night, with a big grin on his face.

Entertainment world insiders said that Kim is dating a model who is quite renowned and is currently working abroad.

"It hasn't been long since they began dating", said a source close to Kim.
"Only those close to the star know about it".
Kim's girlfriend is thought to be younger and he doesn't want to make the affair public "out of respect" for her.
