No matter what mermaid drama Legend of the Blue Sea has in store, I have a feeling that leading lady Jeon Ji Hyun is going to kill it as the half woman half fish all sexy and sassy femae lead. She turned what ought to be a stereotypical self-absorbed top female star character in You From Another Star into one … Continue reading →
I’m soooooo loving Ji Chang Wook in The K2, a role and drama that feels like a perfect crescendo from his Healer breakout role. The first two episodes were a tad too action-packed and a dash too little character building, but that’s the style of PD Kwak Jung Hwan, and also an issue he tackles aptly as the drama progresses … Continue reading →
I thought pairing up Kim Woo Bin and Kim So Hyun was weird enough for last year’s Domino’s pizza ad campaign in South Korea, and now here comes yet another strange set up of Samsonite Red bags using Kim Woo Bin with Kim Yoo Jung to shill luggage. Kim Woo Bin looked like a predator around Kim So Hyun, and … Continue reading →

It’s been a hard last week for C-actress Zhao Li Ying, one of deceased C-actor Kimi Qiao‘s close entertainment industry friends. Not only did she have to grieve the loss of her good friend, she also got attacked online by netizens upset that she wasn’t posting grieving tributes or updates on weibo in the days after Kimi’s suicide. Zhao Li … Continue reading →
There’s more pictures from the Elle Korea pictorial with Han Ji Min that I posted about a few weeks ago, back then it was a pre-release of two still and now the rest of the series is out in all its refreshing restrained splendor. She’s currently promoting the K-movie The Age of Shadows with leading men Song Kang Ho and Gong … Continue reading →
Of the three big child actresses grown up, Kim Yoo Jung has now become the first with a mega hit K-drama under her belt. Sure mega means 20% for a prime time drama nowadays but it’s still impressive and well deserved for her incredible acting ability in sageuks. Moonlight Drawn by Clouds isn’t a success due to her alone but … Continue reading →
Fall in Paris is glorious weather and fashion season, which is why it’s dispiriting to see the two used in such lackluster ways in the latest Cosmopolitan Korea pictorial featuring Lee Min Jung. She went all the way to the City of Lights only to be filmed in front of nondescript buildings and streets, decked out in serviceable albeit unmemorable … Continue reading →
If all women aged like Song Hye Kyo then half the vexations of life’s woes may seem less pressing, what with preternaturally beautiful faces all around to gaze upon. The Hallyu A-list actress has been the face of South Korean beauty brand Laneige for what feels like forever, definitely a decade at least judging from when I started to see … Continue reading →
Not going to look a gift horse in the mouth, if K-drama leads and fashion magazines continue to collaborate to mutually promote then I will continue to slurp up the goodies happily. The OTP of upcoming tvN Fri-Sat night thriller The K2 are in the pages of the coming issue of Vogue Korea, a very high brow pictorial made all … Continue reading →
With Uncontrollably Fond wrapped up last week, leading lady Suzy will likely go back to her expansive CF career such as modeling for jewelry brand Didier Dubot like her, or girl group Miss A activities for the near future as she doesn’t do dramas on a regular basis. Maybe her next role will be a movie, but I hope she … Continue reading →
Landing a perfectly suited character must be the dream of every single aspiring actor or actress, those with lesser ability need every ounce of luck. I don’t begrudge this synergy if the result is a fun drama to watch and such was the cast with recently finished tvN drama Let’s Fight Ghost. I loved it so much it’s not even … Continue reading →
This summer Ha Ji Won didn’t have a movie or drama to promote so she wasn’t out and about as much, but she did make time to attend the Miu Miu fashion event in Seoul at the flagship store. Being Prada‘s younger edgier sister brand, the label isn’t as suitable for Ha Ji Won as much as her wearing Prada’s … Continue reading →
