NEW SKECHERS FLAGSHIP STORE AT NGEE ANN CITY, SINGAPORE

Come 26 June 2015, SKECHERS Singapore is set to open their new flagship store to the public at Ngee Ann City, #B2-04. The new 1,700sqf space in Singapore is the first Asian flagship store to embrace an industrial and modern concept, accompanied by a touch of vintage elements.

The store entrance is framed by a brick wall to give a raw industrial edge that is juxtaposed by the modern inviting interior. Utilizing silver metal supports with exposed welds and fasteners, the store space is given a constructed and contemporary look. Reclaimed natural wood is used to inject warm accents to the overall space, as well as segmenting the collections. On top of that, the new flagship uses LED backlit technology to establish a “mixed-bag” vernacular, a technique widely practiced amongst today’s leading interior architects.

PPALI-PPALI from Korea!

ONE to air prime-time dramas within 24 hours from its premiere in South Korea!

Singapore, 18 May 2015 – ONE, the number one Korean entertainment channel in Singapore^t, is bringing the spirit of “PPALI-PPALI” (pronounced as ‘pah-li pah-li’) – the commonly-used Korean phrase meaning “quickly” – to the television screen.

The PPALI-PPALI show time on ONE will begin this month, showing the latest, prime-time drama offerings from top South Korean broadcasting network Seoul Broadcasting System (SBS), within 24 hours of their original broadcast. The dramas will air with localised subtitles, to complete the drama-watching experience for viewers.

To accommodate this exciting new development, the mini-series time-belt on ONE, which was originally from Mondays to Thursdays, will now be shifted to Tuesdays to Fridays, at 8.55pm/7.55pm (JKT).

The PPALI-PPALI show time will kick off with Mask, a melodrama about a woman who assumes another’s identity and enters the elite “chaebol” (a family-owned industrial conglomerate) world. Standing out from the other aristocratic ladies, she captures the eye and eventually, the heart, of a charismatic but repressed young heir. Mask features a star-studded cast including veteran, international award-winning actress Soo Ae (King of Ambition), leading heartthrob Joo Ji Hoon and Hoya (My Lovely Girl), a member of Korean pop group INFINITE. Mask is set to premiere on 28 May, within 24 hours of its Korean telecast. New episodes will air every Thursday and Friday at 8.55pm/ 7.55pm (JKT), first and exclusively on ONE.

Also airing soon on the PPALI-PPALI show time is True Romance, a heartwarming story about a young woman who – despite her luxurious, privileged background – decides to take on a part-time job at a food market so she can find a man who truly loves her. True Romance boasts a colourful ensemble of young Korean stars, including After School’s UEE, Sung Joon and ZE:A member Park Hyung Sik. True Romance will premiere on 9 June, within 24 hours of its Korean telecast. New episodes will air every Tuesday and Wednesday at 8.55pm/ 7.55pm (JKT), first and exclusively on ONE.

“As the pioneer and the leading Korean entertainment channel in the region, ONE has always served up the best the industry has to offer, to the fans here. We are thrilled to be the first to bring, not 1 but 2 of the latest South Korean prime-time drama series to audiences within 24 hours of their airing, as part of our commitment to presenting fresh and top-rated content to our loyal viewers. The Korean wave is well and truly alive in Southeast Asia, and we believe the PPALI-PPALI show time will take it to the next level,” says Ms Virginia Lim, Vice President of Content & Marketing for Sony Pictures Television Networks, Asia.

Who is The Girl Who Sees Smells?

The Girl Who Sees Smells (2) Sink your senses into a gripping new murder mystery starring Park Yoo Chun, on ONE

Singapore, 29 April 2015 – Two extraordinary souls cross paths to solve the mystery of the “Barcode” serial killer that wrecked their lives in a suspenseful new romantic-comedy drama – possibly JYJ member Park Yoo Chun’s last before he enlists in the military this year.

The Girl Who Sees Smells is Oh Cho Rim (Shin Se Kyung, Fashion King, Deep Rooted Tree), who has miraculously developed the heightened sense, but lost her memory after recovering from an accident that put her in a six- month-long coma. Now a simple, happy-go-lucky schoolgirl, Oh has lost her memory of her tragic past, including the untimely death of her parents. In her quest to becoming a stage comedian, Oh comes across Choi Mu Gak (Park Yoo Chun, Three Days, Rooftop Prince), a newly promoted police detective who months ago lost his younger sister to the “Barcode” serial killer. Interestingly, the trauma from the incident has left Choi devoid of his sense of smell and taste, as well as the ability to feel pain.

Together, they rack their brains and fall into some hilarious, offbeat
situations to unravel the mystery surrounding the murder of Choi’s sister, as
well as the other shocking “Barcode” incidents. But something else about Oh Cho Rim is bothering Choi Mu Gak and lead detective Lieutenant Yeom Mi (Yoon Jin Seo): her uncanny resemblance to the case’s missing key witness, and how she occasionally gets mistaken by strangers as Choi Eun Seol. Mu Gak is perplexed… Eun Seol is the name of his dead sister!

Who is Oh Cho Rim – the girl who eventually draws Mu Gak out of his grief with her knack for comedy – really? And can her ability to see the scents wafting out of objects help put a stop to the increasingly disturbing deaths?

Get to the bottom of The Girl Who Sees Smells when it premieres on ONE on 6 May at 8.55pm/7.55pm (JKT) airing every Monday and Tuesday.
