March 18, Korean Wave star Jang Nara had a press conference on the release of her new album “Dream of Asia” and opened to the public her album jacket picture that shows her sexy back. Jang Nara obviously took a step to show people that she is already over the cute image and is emphasizing that she is already a woman.
For the new album, Jang Nara recorded songs in 4 languages, Korean, Japanese, Chinese and English. She also wrote all the lyrics to 11 Korean songs included in the album.
March 18 also happens to be Jang Nara’s birthday so she was asked what gift she would like to get.
“I would like to receive a massage and not a boyfriend. It’s because my feet and hands are tired,” she wittingly answered.
“Dream of Asia” will be released in Korea, Japan, Hong Kong, Taiwan and Malaysia on the 25th.

Jimmy Lin Visiting Schools In Quake Disaster Area
Jimmy Lin visiting schools in quake disaster area. Reporters came to the temporary tent city for quake victims in Sichuan. The tent city school opens today. One 4th grade teacher told us that there are 200 studnets and all the teachers are volunteers. Jimmy Lin and 5 other stars came to the 1st and 2nd grade classroom. The students were very excited to see him and surrounded him asking for autographs. Some stood on the tables and tried very hard to press their books and pencils to jimmy’s face.
On 5/25/08 Jimmy Lin and 5 other stars flew into Chengdu, Sichuan to participate in the “5.12 Youth Charity – Star Volunteers action”.
Jimmy told the children in the disaster area: “I hope that you won’t give up. Don’t be discouraged. There are more work to be done in the future. Our homes need rebuilding and we will be by your side.”
The star volunteers got psychiatric training from professionals after they got to Chengdu. They will travel to several schools in the disaster area between 5/25 and 5/27 to comfort the students. They will also record their experiences in their blogs to spread the message of care and love.

Jackie Chan, JYP Team Up to Help Quake Victims
International martial-arts and action-comic star Jackie Chan will join with Korean singer/producer Park Jin-young and film director Kang Je-gyu to help the victims of the recent earthquake in Sichuan, China.
JYP Entertainment said yesterday that Chan has solicited the help of his two Korean friends - Park and Kang - to launch a charity project featuring K-pop stars. JYP, the country`s leading pop artist management company led by Park, said that Park has responded by writing an inspirational song which will be recorded with top-notch K-pop stars.
"I`m always proud of being Asian," said Park, the first Asian songwriter to sell a song to an American superstar (including Will Smith and Nick Carter). "I hope the project will provide the victims with help."
Kang, one of the country`s hottest filmmakers best known for his mega blockbuster "Taegukgi (2004)," will produce the song`s music video. "The earthquake in China is the tragedy of entire Asia. I believe we all should do what we can to help the victims," the 46-year-old director said in the press release.
JYP said that Chan will be visiting Seoul starting today to observe the recording of the Asian version of "USA for Africa" and filming of the music video. The lineup of singers who will be participating in the project has yet to be released, though JYP said Park has been contacting a wide variety of top-notch Korean entertainers and other celebrities, including singer and actor Rain.
According to JYP, Chan is also considering giving a charity concert in China`s earthquake-ravaged Sichuan Province, along with the project`s participants, the plans of which are expected to be finalized in a few days.
