Rising K-actor Park Bo Gum has such a sunny boy-next-door image, he’s basically the successor to Song Joong Ki making it even more adorable that they are good friends in real life. That makes me want Park Bo Gum to do a dark tortured type melodrama like Song Joong Ki did with Nice Guy, a transformation of image that also … Continue reading →
The choice of Gong Hyo Jin as the first K-star invited to the Gucci cruise collection fashion show seems like a no brainer, other than her and maybe Kim Min Hee there aren’t that many K-stars willing to experiment with couture.

K-actor Park Hae Jin is in Taiwan this week for his upcoming sold out fan meeting, having surged in popularity in Chinese-speaking regions in recent years thanks to You From Another … Continue reading →
I’ve always had a soft spot for Nam Joo Hyuk even when he was getting slammed for being unqualified to be the male lead or even getting cast in new dramas. He was never that bad for me, bad meaning sucking the air out of a drama and making me cringe, and his limitations were of the inexperienced kind where … Continue reading →
Can I get a yay or nay vote from readers with respect to this latest makeup pictorial featuring Hyosung of the girl group Secret.

To ask Song Hye Kyo why she’s this beautiful at 35 years old and twenty years in the entertainment industry might be tapping into the her stash of the fountain of youth. Song Joong Ki has been getting the lions share of attention for their drama Descendants of the Sun but she was as good in it as him by … Continue reading →
I’m super ambivalent about Suzy‘s look at the recent Carin fan signing event for the eyeglasses brand she reps. This time I can articulate the ambivalence – I don’t like the style of the outfit but like that Suzy wore it because it’s a different breath of fashion air. Suzy wore a pink off shoulder peasant shirt with wide legged … Continue reading →
Of the four leads of KBS hit drama Descendants of the Sun, actress Kim Ji Won playing army doctor Yoon Myung Joo was the least well known of the cast.

A round of applause for Marie Claire Korea for standing out amidst the glut of insanely popular K-actor Song Joong Ki pictorials. I’ve loved all the various photo spread so far but Marie Claire has done something different, it’s managed to capture original flavor Song Joong Ki in his natural habitat and state. This is one down-to-earth warm boy and … Continue reading →
Leave it to K-pop star Hyuna to preview summer 2016 with a bang in one of the best swimsuit fashion pictorials in recent memory. Hyuna is on the cover and inside pages of Sure Magazine, slaying like it’s so easy to look this jaw dropping gorgeous in bikinis, and with a playful cute vibe on top of her usual overt … Continue reading →
K-ent may seen youth obsessed and young pop dominated but there’s still plenty of shine and sizzle where the established stars are concerned. This weekend veteran leading lady actresses Kim Hee Ae and Lee Yo Won stepped out at the Giambattista Valli fashion show in Seoul, with the brand a popular Italian label that must be hitting the fashion jackpot … Continue reading →
I haven’t liked any of Victoria Song‘s Chinese entertainment projects since she started branching out there a few years ago, after getting her debut over in Korea as a member of idol group f(x). She’s been working steadily on dramas and movies, and this may be her big year to jump to the next level thanks to some big dramas on … Continue reading →
Lee Shi Young isn’t my favorite K-actress but I appreciate her acting talents, great real life personality, and unique approach amid the sea of general conformity within K-ent. That makes this new Star1 pictorial even more greatly appreciated, for balancing the pretty statuesque visuals of Lee Shi Young with her boxing side job and her down to earth appeal. Lee … Continue reading →
