Cable network OCN is taking a gamble on performance quality but will be guaranteed visual excellence returns no matter what. The network has confirmed the casting of Song Seung Heon and Go Ara as the leads for its early fall … Continue reading
This casting is certainly eye brow raising for reasons that will entail a bit of poking fun at the leads. K-net is reporting that upcoming cable network OCN drama Black, which got news coverage last month due to it’s subject … Continue reading
Two K-ent titans forming an agency is more than enough to garner interest and anticipation that the effort would be a success. Best friends and top Korean actors Lee Jung Jae and Jung Woo Sung left their agencies after their … Continue reading
