As promised, bringing you all a cute video for week’s end. It’s a mash-up of the Geun-Geuns from one of their earlier movies (and when I say earlier – I mean when both of them still had their baby fat). This MV comes courtesy of EJ from Stellar Fandom, who spliced together 18 year old Moon Geun Young from her … Continue reading →
Obsession – thy name is Dream High. Who knew that in the span of 24 hours and 2 episodes, namely this week’s episode 5 and 6 of DH, I would go from kinda liking this drama (as per my post last week), to full-blown-I-need-moar-of-this-crack utter and complete love for this deeper than it looks high school drama. The worst news … Continue reading →
Now this is what imma talking about, drama! Episode 6 of My Princess was back to being totally awesome, not just sometimes awesome. Along the same vein, I’ve finally crossed the line from theoretically loving the pairing of Hae Young-Seol to feeling personally vested that this couple gets together. Yes, I’ve finally put my heart into this drama, unsurprisingly right … Continue reading →
Additional pictures are beginning to come out from Moon Geun Young and Won Bin’s Basic House Spring 2011 ad campaign. Moon Geun Young looks the very definition of a “pretty baby” above, and I get the sense that the couple shots are going for more preppy and casual. However, Moon Geun Young’s individual shots below appear to channel flirty and … Continue reading →
The best part of the finale episode of Secret Garden for me was Son Ye Jin’s totally random but utterly adorable cameo. If this means she’s next on the hit list for a Kim Eun Sook drama, so be it. I keep reminding myself, I love City Hall, and enjoyed On Air. It can be a win-win situation. What was … Continue reading →
As a whole, episode 5 of My Princess was rather a letdown from the bubbling high of episode 4. Not to say it wasn’t a solid episode, but it felt more like another set-up episode leading to the transformation of Seol and Hae Young into pupil and tutor relationship going forward. I feel like this drama almost comes to a … Continue reading →
The written preview for My Princess episode 6 makes it clear that we’re headed into reluctant-diplomat-tutors-a-princess territory. I love makeover and etiquette hijinks. I have to admit that this drama lives and dies on Seol-Hae Young interactions. I watched episode 5, and everything peters out whenever the two of them are not together. But when they are together, it’s magically … Continue reading →
Yay, it’s a first peek at Hyukkie back on the small screen after his career-topping performance in Chuno a year ago. The first behind-the-scene stills from SBS’s upcoming drama Midas has leaked out. Midas will follow Athena: Goddess of War on Mon-Tues, and stars Jang Hyuk, Lee Min Jung, Kim Hee Ae, and hot rising actor No Min Woo.
Continue reading →After a week or so of speculations and additional casting news, the entire main cast of the upcoming drama 49 Days has finally been confirmed. I don’t think I’ve ever seen an entire cast of main leads comprised completely of sageuk veterans, except for when the drama in discussion is a sageuk. 49 Days is a modern fantasy melodrama, and … Continue reading →
The fabulous and talented zitalei (小蕾) at Baidu’s Moon Geun Young Bar is back with more delightful artwork to help recovering Geun-Geun addicts kick their habit. Yeah, good luck with your twelve-step program. Someone let me know when you check out of the Geun2 love hotel/happy loony bin. I’ll probably still be in there.
Continue reading →When I do something late at night that seemed like such a brilliant idea, in the stark daylight I have to wonder – what was I smoking? I’ll probably give certain esteemed drama watchers an apoplexy, but nevertheless I went ahead and did it anyway. My latest drama review is up at Thundie’s, a first impression side-by-side look at President … Continue reading →
This is just a four-hot-guys picspam post. Nobody has a problem with that, right? When I read the news in the paper, sometime around November of 2009, that Lee Byung Hun, Jang Dong Gun, Song Seung Heon, and Won Bin, were going to hold fan-meeting/concerts in Tokyo in December of that same year, I had to rub my eyes to … Continue reading →
KBS will soon release the Mary Stayed Out All Night (Marry Me, Mary!) photo essay, a collection of photographs from the drama that chronicle the love story of Mae Ri and Mu Gyul. (Again, what was it the new writer tried to do? Oh yes, attempt to kill off Mu Gyul in episode 15. I never get tired of saying it … Continue reading →
