I envisioned an actual physical Abyss that would transform the visuals of the two leads in the upcoming tvN fantasy K-drama. Who figured it would instead be the Eye of Sauron in crystal ball form, contained easily in a wooden box. Man those humans, elves, and hobbits had it hard back then. The first teasers are out for Abyss and … Continue reading →
Screenwriter Baek Mi Kyung has an incredible track record so far and her next drama will take her to a new network and back to cable. She cemented her drama success with three jTBC dramas My Love Eun Dong, Strong Woman Do Bong Soon, and Women of Dignity. Then she moved to KBS with the critically acclaimed The Miracle We … Continue reading →
The slow and steady rise to top K-drama actor level for Park Seo Joon is the kind of classic work hard ethos that’s not as standard anymore. Nowadays idols pop up to headline a drama immediately or actors are tapped for breakout too early and miss the important experience building gradual leveling up. I remember when Park Seo Joon first … Continue reading →
I’m still interested in the former top C-actress Fan Bing Bing situation, for one she truly got to the top of a very competitive China market and she’s paid all her owed taxes for the tax evasion which wasn’t even about whether she was successful but merely that she kept more money than she should have. Even after paying millions … Continue reading →
The scent is quite fresh with the final casting of fantasy romance drama Perfume, after some bumps with the original names floated I quite like this unexpected quartet. Filming will commence shortly for the late spring 2019 K-drama Perfume so it’s a relief the confirmed cast came together so quickly after initial leads Eric and Go Jun Hee ended up … Continue reading →
Promos have kicked off for the K-version of Japanese manga Absolute Boyfriend (Zettai Kareshi), quite a few years in the making with this adaptation punted around K-ent for some time. Yeo Jin Gu will get to bare his abs as the robot boyfriend, Minah as the female lead, and Hong Jong Hyun as the just as good human option for … Continue reading →
While I’m not fond of Park Min Young‘s entire outfit and look at the press conference for upcoming tvN Wed-Thurs drama Her Private Life, I’m loving how Kim Jae Wook matches with her so well imma give this whole shindig a thumbs up. The leads along with supporting male lead Ahn Bo Hyun attended the press conference today though the … Continue reading →
I’ve been charmed by Taecyeon ever since the big lunkhead barreled into the scene in Dream High and was as endearing a choice as the eventual male lead in that drama Kim Soo Hyun. His acting was sooooo stiff back then but he had so much earnest heart that reached through the screen, and since then he’s improved consistently as … Continue reading →
I serious have FOMO whenever I see Jeon Ji Hyun at an event. I rarely want to see a star in person, a long time blogging quirk that sets in when fangirling becomes a staple like sleeping, showering, and eating. But K-actress Jeon Ji Hyun still evokes the wonder in me, I am legit impressed with how she’s managed a … Continue reading →
Talk about a smart casting choice from two different angles. Hyun Bin and Son Ye Jin are reportedly in talks to reunite for the next K-drama penned by the screenwriter Park Ji Eun of You From Another Star, Producers, and Legend of the Blue Sea. Binnie and Son Ye Jin are both seasoned big name stars so their casting is … Continue reading →
The other shoe has dropped for singer Roy Kim, who has been noticeably absent and laying low in all the recent scandals with Seungri, Jung Joon Young, and many other same generation male singers. The reason K-netz think he may also be involved is because he’s very good friends with Jung Joon Young in real life and it turns out … Continue reading →
There’s a change to the airing schedule which doesn’t surprise me because it was getting way too close for there not to be a concerted effort to promote such a big budget high profile K-drama. SBS is delaying the airing of pre-produced action drama Vagabond from the schedule May 2019 premiere date to later in September of the same year. … Continue reading →
This has all the hallmarks of a good drama, being on cable with a serious political turn in this day and age where politics seem more than ever to play a role in daily lives. jTBC kicked off script reading for Aide starring Lee Jung Jae, Shin Mina, Kim Dong Joon, and Elliya Lee. Lee Jung Jae plays a top … Continue reading →
