Tablo’s representative Ulim Entertainment says that the singer has decided to resume his TV and radio appearances, promising the doctors that he won’t overexert himself. He has to return to hospital after work, because he has not been discharged yet.
Tablo has thanked his fans for their support and concern about his well-being on his personal mini homepage Wednesday night. He admitted that he still suffers from the complications and pain from the accident, but looks forward to resuming work the following day. Tablo also commented on a number of mishaps that took place before and after the release of Epik High’s latest album. Epik High was shocked when their new songs were distributed illegally before the official release and there have been talks about Epik High retiring, which set off a flood of protest from the fans. However, Tablo put all the rumors to rest by saying that Epik High will continue performing until the end of this year. "

Kpop Music News: Kang Ta Starts Military Service
Kpop Team writes "
Former H.O.T. member Kang Ta began his 24-month mandatory military service Tuesday. When he arrived at the training camp in northern Gyeonggi Province, Kang was accompanied by ex-H.O.T. member Shin Hye-sung and close friend Lee Ji-hoon.
Sporting the short military hairstyle, Kang Ta appeared to be relaxed and eager to start his service. He said that he slept well and his fellow H.O.T. member Moon Hee-jun, who finished his military duty just a few months ago, advised him to just follow orders and everything will be alright.
Now that Kang Ta has left for the military, only Tony Ahn and Lee Jae-won out of five H.O.T. members need to fulfill their military. Before starting his military service, Kang Ta held his last performances last Saturday and Sunday to reassure his fans that he will return as a stronger and better man. "

Kpop Music News: Turtle Man Dies of Heart Attack
Rapper Turtle Man (real name Im Seong-hoon) of pop trio Turtles (Geobugi) died of a heart attack early Wednesday morning. He was found by his manager, who came to check up on him when he didn't answer his phone.

Turtle Man's funeral will take place on Friday and his remains will be rested in the same place where the remains of actresses Lee Eun-joo and Jung Da-bin are kept.
