Hey guys,

New Korean copyright laws will be enforced starting July 23rd.

You may have noticed that the Korean Government has been very strict about posting material online, but it has just gotten a whole lot worse.

I've summarised some main points that you should be aware of HERE.

It only applies to Korean websites:

Basically, you cannot post videos, mp3 files, pictures, screencaps, without the permission of the original copyright owner, which is highly difficult to obtain.

Please do not ask me anything else regarding the new legislation, as I do not know anything beyond this point.

I'm not sure if things will or won't be the same around Heartcafe.

My advice is, try not to post any media at Heartcafe from July 23, and if others have found ways to post without getting caught, you might follow their example.

Here is Brian Joo's first LiveJournal community!

Secondly, Hwanhee:

~ According to Staphy at FTTSE forum. News at Hwanhee's daum cafe are reporting that he cannot switch from his current company, PFULL yet. There is a slight conflict. Whatever it is, I hope they can work it out smoothly.
~ Recent sitings of Hwanhee: thanks to Sookie at FTTSE forum, Hwanhee was last seen at Gong Hyong Jin Drama Theater yesterday supporting his fellow actor on stage.



www.fanyforever.com
This is the first international website dedicated to Hwanhee. The site (if I am correct) is from the team/admins over at Fany Forever Daum Cafe. So far the site looks amazing! The lovely team is working really hard so please join and help make it successful. Also, it's all in English so you'll know your way around easily. You must register and leave a comment in the "Story From Keyboard" section to be approved and leveled up (access to all boards at the site). See you all there!!!!
