The Song Hye Kyo cover and pictorial for Vogue Korea and its most prestigious September 2021 edition got mixed reception in the first stills released. I agree, she looked good but the styling wasn’t my favorite. She’s since shared the B-side pictures that I love even more, her styling is more relaxed and modern in some of the new pics. … Continue reading →
The stars are aligned with this one – top actress Song Hye Kyo is back on the promo circuit due to a new drama Now, We Are Breaking Up premiering in mid-fall, and it so happens to be a drama set in the fashion industry. That timing means she’s the perfect cover model for the most exclusive Vogue Korea September … Continue reading →
Leopard prints have taken over Christian Dior, or at least the store in Seoul and it’s kinda odd considering the latest styles of purses remain feminine and the classic Dior Toile de Jouy pattern. K-actress Suzy was photographed in a store tour which is common with brand ambassadors where it’s less posing with the couture products and more lively in being … Continue reading →
Fall is around the corner which means the fashion season is heating up including the coveted September issues of fashion magazines. K-actor Lee Min Ho is on the cover and pages of Esquire Korea, essaying the quintessential image of an modern Esquire man. Less straight laced than the GQ man but not as edgy as the Nylon man. Out are … Continue reading →
The older I get the less I’m adverse to bright colors. Young me skewed towards black, blue, grey, and white, and then I added pinks, reds, greens, and purples. But now I’ve truly embraced orange and yellow, and honestly colors are a beautiful way to feel not just colorfully pretty but also willing to experiment. But oranges and yellows are … Continue reading →
Whenever this is a well assembled high school K-drama I’m always on the lookout for the future stars of acting to come from the rising teens and young adults. 2019 drama Extraordinary You had three male leads catch the eye of casting directors and the jury is still out on whether Ro Woon, Lee Jae Wook, or Kim Young Dae … Continue reading →
Being a grown up child actress fairly guarantees double the attention, from those who still remember the child era and those who stumble upon in the adult era, and the intersectional in between. Kim So Hyun even as a kid got tons of comparisons to adult actresses she resembled in looks/acting and all the commentary was good, but as an … Continue reading →
Quarantine during COVID-19 has taught me that as much as being able to lay on the bed or sofa as much as I want, it’s still not good for one’s motivation or waist line to do so. But if I looked as chic and gorgeous as Song Hye Kyo does doing that activity I may be inclined to keep going … Continue reading →
The summer time look has one element that consists of wet and/or messy hair like you just got out the ocean 30 minutes ago and hastily donned a land lubber outfit. It’s not my favorite look as it’s hard to pull off, one has to look a million bucks so that the flat hair doesn’t drag down the vibe. Park … Continue reading →
What a fitting first post on the first day of June, this year in 2021 is certainly a better spot than last year but even during the height of COVID-19 lockdowns there at least was the great outdoors to venture out to. K-actress Kim Yoo Jung has been the face of Fila sportwear in South Korea for many years and … Continue reading →
I’m still perplexed as to how jTBC greenlit Sisphus: The Myth and landed so many A-listers to star. Park Shin Hye could not have chosen better on what she could have known, though I would say reading the script for the first four episodes would have had me running for the exit. Who knows, she got to act with Jo … Continue reading →
I wonder how those new to K-dramas who were not around during Kim Woo Bin‘s ascension to A-list young between 2013-2015 would react to him today with his comeback forthcoming. Sure one can watch dramas and movies with him but living through the rise of a talented new actor or actress is always a memorable experience in and of itself. … Continue reading →
There was a throwaway line in Vincenzo episode 12 when two supporting characters are bickering and one calls the other a “cut rate Park Saeroyi wannabe” which was brilliant. I don’t miss that just out of jail bowl cut on anyone even on Park Seo Joon who wore it well in hit drama Itaewon Class. He’s back to being chic … Continue reading →
