I love looking at wedding pictures, bonus for being pretty without too much posing or artificial glamour just like these. TW-actor Kimi Hsia (Hsia Yu Qiao) shared a happy surprise to start the weekend with her fans, announcing that she was married to boyfriend of three years director Tom Lin (Lin Shu Yu). The two released wedding pictures shot on … Continue reading →
I certainly hope this was indeed just a mistake but highly doubt it and am worried. K-actress Lee Yoo Young, who just finished the KBS drama My Fellow Citizens with Choi Si Won, posted an update to her SNS account of her own picture and the caption “I want to die. Every single day is like hell. I want to … Continue reading →
tvN hasn’t premiered Arthdal Chronicles yet but managed to hold both the press release media part and the drama wrap party on the same week. It’s all due to extensive pre-filming which made this drama hit the fully pre-produced mark mere days before the first episode airs on June 1st. In attendance were leads Jang Dong Gun, Kim Ji Won, … Continue reading →
There hasn’t been a sageuk on my radar in awhile, and I’m not really counting upcoming Arthdal Chronicles since it’s mining pre-written history and has fantasy elements. I’m jonesing for a classic Joseon-era sageuk with romance and the requisite amounts of period conflict. I’m warming up to summer MBC sageuk Rookie Historial Goo Hae Ryung for that reason, a craving … Continue reading →
Fans of D.O. (Do Kyung Soo) probably thought they had another three years with this baby before he shipped off to the military what with him being only 26 and all. Alas D.O. has other plans and today announced his impending military enlistment for this July 2019. He will be out in May 2021 and during his service will be … Continue reading →
Sure sure, you can quibble with me that leads Park Min Young and Kim Jae Wook didn’t start making out until episode 9 of just concluded tvN drama Her Private Life and after which they rarely came up for air. Or started a few episodes earlier when they fake kissed or imaginary kissed just as steamily onscreen as the real … Continue reading →
K-actress Park Shin Hye is channeling veteran noona actress Kim Seo Hyung in her latest Harper’s Bazaar pictorial and the result is unexpectedly awesome. I wouldn’t have pegged her to pull off this dramatic and power woman look but she does so confidently and makes it her own. Her last role in Memories of Alhambra did nothing other than run … Continue reading →
Woah, this is big potential K-drama casting news and a positive possibility for me.

Late last year I posted about cutie pie former drama costars Puff Guo and Jasper Liu (Liu Yi Hao) reuniting for a new TW-drama 5 years after doing the adorable cooking themed Love Myself or You. Their new drama premieres this week and ohlalala is it a 180 degree turnaround from the sweet and innocent prior collaboration. It’s called Before … Continue reading →
If tvN sageuk Arthdal Chronicles ends up being a bust at least the cast and crew is already set for season 2 and 3 with the drama being split into 3-parts including a simulcast on Netflix. As lame and kinda dorky the posters and previews looked, I can’t imagine it’s a full on dud what with the star power and … Continue reading →
Like, this is the least surprising new revelation in the Burning Sun and Seungri scandal now going on three months. Seungri is a member of Big Bang which is under YG Entertainment management, but if you believe the lone wolf explanation from YG’s side it was Seungri acting all alone for years and years being a pimp and courting investors … Continue reading →
This is a small fry scandal compared to the last two months of serious misconduct and criminal allegations roiling K-ent, but still worth reporting.
