I haven’t followed a Mon-Tues K-drama in months and the wait has been worth it to find a drama worth my commitment again. KBS dropped the youth sageuk The Tale of Nokdu this week and it’s as entertaining and charming as the previews suggested. Leads Jang Dong Yoon and Kim So Hyun are perfectly cast in their respective roles and … Continue reading →
I think context does matter here, both for C-actress Liu Shi Shi herself and the general bounce back of actresses in general after having a baby.

I’m gradually forgotten K-actor Kang Ji Hwan even existed, seriously making the effort to erase his works and existence so to move on and not feel even slightly ambivalent about his onscreen performance versus real life current criminal incarceration pending trial for sexually assaulting two women while claiming to be so drunk. It helps that he’s not in the news … Continue reading →
I find TW-actress Nikki Hsieh one of the most watchable actresses in the industry across genres. Plus she’s my Da Hua (Big Flower) from the insanely drama crack addictive drama King Flower which is so many years ago but holds a soft spot in my heart for many reasons.

The second week of SBS Fri-Sat night drama Vagabond basically is unchanged from the first week, so I say this because those who like it will continue to do so and those who don’t probably have no reason to start now. Episode 3 ratings are 7.3%, 8.4%, 9.3% and episode 4 took in 6.8%, 8.1%, 10.2%, so this big budget … Continue reading →
I’m not a fan of the black wedding dress alternative look but I am a fan of couple being a natural fit together.

The two have … Continue reading →
