This is such an unexpected pairing that works marvelously for me, and it’s not even in a drama OTP context. Sporty brand Black Yak paired up long time spokesperson Jo In Sung with newly added youthful brand model Yook Sung Jae for it’s fall/winter 2015 ad campaign and all I can say is awwwwwwwwww. They are so adorakable together! This … Continue reading →
At this point in her acting career, child-turn-teen actress Kim So Hyun has reached a level where her presence can singlehandedly make something better. Who Are You: School 2015 was as forgettable as it comes narrative wise, but I’ll always remember it rather fondly for Kim So Hyun’s twin performance that was incredibly diverse and nuanced for one so young. … Continue reading →
This is a big step forward for idol-actess Yoona of SNSD, and only when the project arrives will it be clear whether this is a giant leap in the right direction or a fumbling misstep. Yoona has just been cast as Hyun Bin‘s leading lady in the K-movie Cooperation, one of those popular genre flicks about North-South Korea issues. This one deals … Continue reading →
Looks like having a baby did nothing to dim Lee Bo Young‘s beauty, and in fact seems to have enhanced it with extra glow. New mommy Lee Bo Young doesn’t appear to be ready for an acting comeback anytime soon, though a drama in the latter half of 2016 doesn’t seem out of the question, and who can blame here … Continue reading →
It’s great to the fierce yeoja Ha Ji Won in a new pictorial looking so sultry and confident. I wish all of that great attitude went somewhere in her last drama The Time I Loved You, which had all the makings of a great rom-com and ended up a great mess that everyone involved and audiences included would rather forget. … Continue reading →
I’m waiting for a Song Hye Kyo drama that will completely make me fall in love with her, which isn’t all that hard because she’s freaking gorgeous and keeps getting prettier with age. Compared to her Hotelier and Autumn in My Heart days, the current Song Hye Kyo deserves the accolades as one of Korea’s top beauties. The latest ad … Continue reading →
There’s news heating up TW-ent and it kinda makes sense – I was wondering what Puff Guo has been up to lately since it’s been so long since she’s popped up in the news feeds. She’s been a hot topic and commodity for the two years prior, doing popular SETTV dramas like Just You and Pleasantly Surprised, cross-border variety shows … Continue reading →
I feel like Taiwan spreads the wealth around more with its acting talent, I see a more diverse range of successful actors and actresses than in Korea for example. The Taiwanese entertainers also toggle different mediums more readily, be it singing and acting, or fashion designer and actress, and even book author and top movie director. At the opening of the … Continue reading →
Park Shin Hye has been the spokesmodel for jewelry brand Agatha for some time now, and really all the pictures she takes for the ad campaigns have been lovely to behold. But the recently released teaser for the Fall/Winter 2015 campaign take it to a new level of pretty, and I’m trying to figure out what makes it so captivating … Continue reading →
The stars were out in full style (good, bad, and weird) at the 2015 Fashion Cosmo Gala in Shanghai this week. There were plenty of industry renowned fashion plates present such as idol Show Luo, just married Angelababy, model-actress Bea Hayden and her fellow Muse Dress costar Ying Er, and the surprise treat is edgy Korean fashion stars Gong Hyo Jin … Continue reading →
This is a most excellent onscreen pairing, and it’s an opinion I have even without watching them together, and even if the movie ends up a dud. Whoever thought to bring together Taiwanese actor Bolin Chen and Korean actress Son Ye Jin was doing more than picking popular star names out of a hat, these two have very similar acting … Continue reading →
The older I get, the more nostalgic I am, which makes me feel more square and less hip, but then I don’t give a fug these days other than being happy with the things I like. One of which is people staying in touch with their roots, wherever one comes from it’s lovely not to forget it and sweeter yet … Continue reading →
It’s the annual time where the elusive Gong Yoo emerges from the private sphere back to the public spotlight in order to promote an acting project. He has been doing one movie a year for the last few years, which is better than a movie every five years like Won Bin, but still much less than I want in order … Continue reading →
