A great perk of adult stars going public with their relationships is the ability to date in openly without being swaddled in face masks and dodging into residences via the underground garage. Also does good for the world by depriving tabloid bottom feeders like Dispatch a source of income for staking them out. Idol-actress Sooyoung of SNSD and actor Jung … Continue reading →
After the impressively nuanced performance by Yang Mi as the female lead of fantasy romance novel Three Lives Three Worlds, Ten Miles Peach Blossoms, it’s now time to look forward to this summer’s condensed take by Crystal Liu playing the same character in movie length. Bazaar China is taking a first crack at featuring Crystal in a modern muse spread … Continue reading →
Leave it to themselves and to Dispatch for outing one of the more likely reel to real couplings in recent months. Netizen chatter has been crescendo-ing for the last week that Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok Joo costars Nam Joo Hyuk and Lee Sung Kyung are dating in real life much like audiences of their cheerful romance drama have been shipping … Continue reading →
This is legit aging goals right here, and its none other than former Miss Korea turned actress Kim Sung Ryung to show how it’s done. Most recognizable to international drama viewers as playing Lee Min Ho‘s adorable mom in Heirs, Kim Sung Ryung has been acting in K-dramas for three decades and played plenty of female lead roles during her … Continue reading →
I can’t believe in this day and age in 2017 there is still the need for a male idol star to issue an apologetic statement after announcing an impending marriage. Eric of Shinhwa, who has long since his idol debut days transitioned into a legit actor and still managed to maintain his idol roots, recently announced his July 1st wedding to … Continue reading →
OMG this is the bestest drama news ever, now I just want to know what story this is going to be. K-actor Cha Seung Won revealed this weekend during his Japan fan meeting that he’s coming back to the small screen with a K-drama soon, and on top of that it’s going to be a romantic comedy. Win and win! … Continue reading →
Filming has commenced for what is being billed as Taiwan’s adaptation of hit K-drama Descendants of the Sun, but really I think that’s a stretch and more of a marketing ploy. DotS has been referred to as a homage and glorification of military service in Korea, turning what is a mandatory two year purgatory of sorts of all able bodied … Continue reading →
I still rarely watch K-variety shows and the ones I do check out are invariably due to the cast consisting of an actor or actress I like. Cable network jTBC is celebrating the biggest drama hit to date with Strong Woman Do Bong Soon but apparently it’s variety show Crime Scene is also doing well enough to head into the … Continue reading →
The best part of being ahead of the curve is getting done with something before all your peers. I’ve always been a go-getter and it’s great to see born in 1987 Lee Seung Gi do his mandatory military service earlier thann many of his born the same year entertainment industry colleagues. Notable ’87ers enlisting now or later this year include … Continue reading →
An election themed dance off on the beautiful balmly spring streets of Seoul is a creative intro for upcoming SBS Wed-Thurs drama Suspicious Partner. I’m sufficiently entertained by how earnest and into it the entire cast gamely participates in this goofy bit, wringing comedy by committing to the silly. The drama arrives in two weeks after Saimdang: Light’s Diary finally … Continue reading →
The April edition of Marie Claire Korea features the first major Korean fashion magazine pictorial of actress Yoon Eun Hye in quite some time. It didn’t disappoint in the first released pictures and continues to satisfy in the recently made available additional shots. This wasn’t a location shoot with the focus being solely on the model and her outfits and … Continue reading →
I can’t help but simultaneously chuckle and cringe at the massive cover tagline for Yoona‘s May Grazia Magazine pictorial. The all caps “I am single and happy” is fine and dandy as the refrain for the empowered single lady as beautiful and successful as the singer-actress, but knowing that she dated Lee Seung Gi for over a year and it … Continue reading →
The career of So Ji Sub hit the 20th anniversary milestone this year, and in many ways he’s remained a man who prefers his own beat than one clamoring for a piece of the Hallyu pie. His arguably buzziest drama was The Master’s Sun with Gong Hyo Jin, but he really rocketed to the top actor tier a decade earlier … Continue reading →
