When there is a pants fashion fail in the same week in K-ent, I can only hope it’s a coincidence but worry that it’s heralding a trend. A terrible eyesore of a trend that should have died off in the 80’s and 90’s. Minor celeb Yoo Seung Ok, who is famous for being a sports trainer and flaunting her body … Continue reading →
It’s been satisfying watching all three model-turned-actor Vampire Idol henchmen attain K-ent success one after another to varying degrees. First Kim Woo Bin, then Hong Jong Hyun, and now Lee Soo Hyuk, all three went from supporting roles in a wacky cable sitcom to holding their own in dramas or movies. It took me awhile to warm up to Lee … Continue reading →
I can’t figure out if the latest BNT pictorial is good exposure or bad for Yoon Kyun Sang‘s kickstarted acting career. Thanks to a star-making turn in a critical supporting role in Pinocchio playing Lee Jong Seok‘s hyung, Yoon Kyun Sang is garnering all the right attention for his acting ability and potential. Even better is that he’s already done with … Continue reading →
French design house Chanel light up the fashion skyline in Seoul this past weekend for the 2015 Cruise collection, which also happens to be the first time ever the haute couture brand has staged a runway show in South Korea. It was a veritable who’s who of Korean entertainment and famous Hollywood faces attending the show at Dongdaemun Design Plaza, with … Continue reading →
Pretty is as pretty does, so when the drama gods combines it into a two-for-one special its even harder to look away. Song Seung Heon has been hopping between Korea and China for the past year due to filming a C-movie and other entertainment events that continue his step forward into the Chinese market. His upcoming C-movie The Third Way … Continue reading →
I can’t believe this is the third time Suzy and Yoo Yeon Seok have worked together, saying this not because I haven’t seen their works but because I have and neither left a memory of their interactions. Their first project was in the hit movie Introduction to Architecture, followed up with the drama Gu Family Book. Sure they didn’t play … Continue reading →
Leave it to Jeon Ji Hyun to elevate even the most typical brand clothing ad campaign. She’s been sporting the shorter locks since she lopped off her trademark lustrous long waves months ago, a look that refreshes her goddess appeal and looks stunning on her. The clothes she’s modeling for the ladies wear brand Shes Miss is nothing to write … Continue reading →
I see London, I see France, I finally get to see new lovebirds Suzy and Lee Min Ho‘s respective pictorials in those European locales which led to their Dispatch snapped rendezvous. It’s been over a month since the young and insanely popular stars were outed as a couple, since then both have been going about their usual entertainment activities and … Continue reading →
I wonder if Chinese casual wear brand Semir is playing a Pokemon game of “Gotta Catch ‘Em All”? How else to explain the brand snatching up one Korean male Hallyu star after another for its clothing campaigns. Kim Woo Bin is the latest to join the Semir line up that includes Lee Min Ho, Kim Soo Hyun, and Lee Jong Seok. … Continue reading →
Leave it to Yoon Eun Hye to stir up talk and interest even doing something as mundane (for a celebrity) as attending a brand promotional launch event. Yoon Eun Hye stepped out today in Seoul for a L’Oreal Paris beauty campaign, sporting the same reddish tinted hair color she’s been rocking since last month when she jetted off to Paris … Continue reading →
Seeing this latest pictorial of Kim Tae Hee looking gloriously pretty for InStyle Korea reminded me of how long it’s been since I watched her onscreen and led to me rewatching the good bits of Jang Ok Jung, Live in Love. That drama fell apart in epic fashion exactly from the midway point onward, but the first half was glorious … Continue reading →
Real life good friends Lee Soo Hyuk and Kim Young Kwang have basically the exact same career trajectory. Both are models turned actors and currently reside comfortably in second lead territory in dramas and supporting roles in movies. That’s not a bad place to be, but if they aspire to reach higher then both need to look no further than … Continue reading →
Variety shows don’t interest me but if it did I’d probably be all over We Got Married just for the sheer pleasure of watching fake romance being sold as maybe real and wondering if fans actually get swept up in the make believe. I get the concept but find it really flawed with too high a probability to go off … Continue reading →
