K-stars Kim Woo Bin and Shin Mina tied the knot this past weekend in Seoul and so many famous other stars were in attendance the arrivals rivaled a movie premiere.

So the wedding of top stars Shin Mina and Kim Woo Bin was private, i.e. no press coverage and the couple would not pose for pictures. But they did release one official picture of their wedding photo shoot and sometimes one is enough because it’s beyond beautiful and just chef’s kiss perfect. Their matching open smiles, the slight turn to … Continue reading →
I was worried that the back-to-back soul swap sageuk airing of K-dramas Moon River on MBC transitioning to To My Beloved Thief on KBS might steal the latter’s thunder by being a second to arrive problem. But right now with Moon River ending this weekend and Beloved Thief ramping up to its first week of January premiere I’m feeling like … Continue reading →

At least Disney+ won’t be accused of going cheap or not supporting its upcoming big budget high profile K-drama Made in Korea.
