K-actor Kim Jae Wook isn’t a diamond in the rough, he’s just a diamond as chiseled and deserving of limelight. He was all James Dean-esque at Incheon Airport earlier this week flying to Taipei and days later he’s suited to perfection at the Tiffany event in front of his adoring fans snapping away on their phones. Having him rep a … Continue reading →
I guess the overseas filming portion in Switzerland of tvN drama Crash Landed Love is done because male lead Hyun Bin attended an Omega event in Seoul this week. Binnie was wearing all black with a black suit and undershirt but he doesn’t look like a douche or a villain, just uber casual and sleek. Maybe I’m just biased but … Continue reading →
The casting is underway for the SBS medical drama Romantic Doctor, Teacher Kim 2 and another name thrown in the mix is Lee Sung Kyung for the female lead. If she accepts it will be her second time playing doctor (har har) after Doctors in 2016. Her role would be a second year heart surgeon who grew up as a … Continue reading →
If one didn’t know that upcoming tvN drama Vagabond was an action thriller then the visually loud drama posters will hammer that point home. There are guns, guns, and more guns, and also lots of angry and intense stares. Well, male lead Lee Seung Gi is delivering the intensity for sure with plenty of anger fueling his quest for truth … Continue reading →
This is an interesting way to market the second male lead. Kim Ji Suk joins Kang Ha Neul in vying for the affections of Gong Hyo Jin in upcoming KBS romance drama When the Camellia Blooms but so far all the posters and promos have been of the two leads only. I figure Kim Ji Suk was getting the short … Continue reading →
It’s a short 3 week airing for the final third season of fantasy sageuk Arthdal Chronicles, with only 6-episodes left to wrap up the epic tale. Episode 13 aired this Saturday and got 6.115% ratings, a steep drop from its predecessor Hotel Del Luna which averaged 8.867% and its final episode broke 12%. I’m still not feeling the epic-ness of … Continue reading →
September is when movie season slows down after the jam-packed summer months but I find it usually a good time for K-dramas to deliver quality fare heading into the fall. End of the month comes Melting Me Softly on tvN, which has been promoting for over a month so I feel like it should be here by now but eh … Continue reading →
Woah momma is this going to be an intense ride. The first drama preview has dropped for jTBC sageuk My Country and it’s all about my heart. As in, rip it out and stomp on it for good measure with the pain to come. It’s full on torture porn levels of torment on male lead Yang Se Jong and his … Continue reading →
A vacation is a downer moment, said no one ever, so the cast of recently wrapped tvN drama Hotel Del Luna are all chipper and cheery at Incheon Airport earlier this week heading off to Thailand. It’s the reward vacation that’s so common with successful dramas, a great way to thank the cast and crew and also keep them in … Continue reading →
I still remember a year ago seeing pictures of Hyun Bin in Spain filming tvN drama Memories of Alhambra, so it’s kinda deju vu to see him this year in Switzerland filming upcoming Crash Landed Love. The premise is rather hokey – Son Ye Jin plays a South Korean chaebol heiress who crash lands in North Korea and is saved … Continue reading →
tvN started off summer of 2019 with the highly anticipated fantasy sageuk Arthdal Chronicles but it was the next drama to come the fantasy drama Hotel Del Luna that garnered higher ratings an buzz. One will never know how Arthdal would have done had it aired all episodes in succession but it decided to separate 6-episode chunk into seasons so … Continue reading →
The connection and attraction between the leads in upcoming tvN drama Melt Me Softly feels so restrained and contained. I guess it stems from the two needing to keep their body temperatures below a certain level so as to not die after being cryogenically frozen for twenty years, or maybe their personalities are already the subtle type. Either or both … Continue reading →
Hold my beer, not as I attempt some ridiculous trick but so I can ogle Kim Jae Wook without risk of spilling because my hand is shaking. Clearly his fashion style as Ryan Gold in My Private Life is nothing like his real life style, as his character sported wide legged trousers and trendy chic office wear but here he’s … Continue reading →
