Grown up child actor Yeo Jin Gu came of age with his two Kim costars Kim So Hyun and Kim Yoo Jung and together the three made the transition to adulthood and their careers seamlessly.

I think the weeklong Me Too reveals in TW-ent may have come to a close, if there are more accusers against more stars so much attention on this hopefully have given them courage to speak up. The allegations started against Chris Wang for sexual assault and groping, the Mickey Huang for sexual assault and taking naked pictures, then against Aaron … Continue reading →
Well way to harsh the female lead’s thunder with a later announcement or perhaps giving her the solo spotlight now.

The occasional Korean manner leg picture comes my way and I always take note for my collection and for the chuckle.

K-actor Seo Kang Joon finished his tour last month and … Continue reading →
So the victim accusing singer-actor Aaron Yan of sexual assault when he was just 16/17 has outed himself as popular TW Tik Tok influencer Yao Le who goes by handle Raku.

So my first and only reaction is “yes?” before moving on to the next article. But I guess in K-ent this still makes a story especially when there is no confirmation. This week a so-called entertainment industry insider claimed that Park Seo Joon was a taken man and dating a very young and quite popular South Korean Youtuber going by … Continue reading →
I sorta dig when a C-drama early promos show one story and then a substantive trailer hits and it’s a totally different beast. C-drama Wonderland of Love with Xu Kai and Jing Tian doesn’t have an airing date yet but Tencent did a promo over the weekend and dropped a new poster (above) and first official trailer and it’s so … Continue reading →

Like, trying to keep my expectations low just went out to the window with the release of the full official preview for Lost You Forever, adapted from the same name novel by writer Tong Hua of Bu Bu Jing Xin fame. I’ve read the novel from the back countless times and did the translation … Continue reading →
Well this is A LOT to digest here. After Chris Wang was accused of sexual harassment and assault and admitted it, a day later a woman accused a top TW-variety show host of forcibly kissing her many years ago when she was just in college and later inviting her to take pictures for his photo exhibit which later he pressured … Continue reading →
