The highly ambitious Hyde, Jekyll and I has turned out a huge bust for SBS, still waiting for a big domestic ratings hit in the Wed-Thurs time slot a year out from the last hit You From Another Star. Leads Hyun Bin and Han Ji Min got lots of buzz for pairing up to do the drama but the end result was … Continue reading →
I’ve blogged about plenty a fashion fail moments whether at awards shows or press conferences and the standard reaction remains the same befuddled look accompanied by the outburst of “da hell is he/she wearing?” Gu Hye Sun may have had her share of odd attire in the past but this one at the Blood press conference takes the cake. It’s … Continue reading →
Leave it to Ji Sung to keep garnering positive buzz for his performance thus far in the MBC Wed-Thurs drama Kill Me Heal Me. It’s the current ratings leader even if the ratings are still low double digits as is the general ratings landscape for all the weekday prime time dramas. What marketers love isn’t just ratings but buzz, which … Continue reading →
I can never understand why being disappointed with certain performances and projects by an entertainer suddenly gets my fan status revoked. Sorry for not being blind and delulu to the point that even if oppa/unni farts I’ll proclaim it sweet smelling. Just like some acting talent can coast for a long time on goodwill from one major successful role, my … Continue reading →
Ladies looking for a new makeup trend need look no further than the eye-catching look that is sweeping the Mandarin-speaking countries thank to the popular C-drama The Empress of China. While the heaving bosoms all got left on the editing floor early on during the airing, including many of the sumptuous gowns that was sorta covering them, that left the … Continue reading →
I want to thank Jung Yumi for doing a fall/winter pictorial for W Korea that gives me great winter wear ideas for this season across the board. Not a single bad picture and every piece is wearable whether one is Jung Yumi level lithe and elegant or just average and wants to be both comfy and pretty. I am totally … Continue reading →
As far as small screen debuts go, model-turned-actress Lee Sung Kyung couldn’t have picked a more ideal drama last year than It’s Okay, It’s Love. She was surrounded by amazingly talented sunbaes giving it their all in acting out a truly difficult but rewarding story, allowing her the room to do her small part with more reassurance. Unfortunately her character … Continue reading →
Wu Zun might not have acting chops but he has other great qualities that still serve him well as an entertainer. Since leaving Fahrenheit three years ago, Wu Zun has transitioned his career into movies and variety while revealing to the world the worst kept secret in TW-ent that he was long ago married to his high school sweetheart.

I haven’t seen much of Kim Woo Bin lately, that happens when he hasn’t done a K-drama last year in 2014 and I typically watch less K-movies. He was busy filming movies all of 2014 and the first of the movies to premiere was Criminal Designer (The Con Artists/The Technicians) over Christmas break. It was billed as a Thieves-esque caper … Continue reading →
There’s an unspoken but accepted truth in the Hana Yori Dango fandom that one actor among the F4 in any drama adaptation won’t nearly be as popular as the other three. Maybe it’s the laws of celebrity that says no way the drama gods give that much blessing to one cast. Kim Joon of Boys Before Flowers has turned out to … Continue reading →
I say the more the merrier when it comes to anything Yoo Seung Ho. Sorry for not being less obvious that I lurve him to pieces. His comeback first pictorial spread for Grazia magazine dropped a few teaser pics last week which has now been followed by a few more delicious pictures to tantalize fans dying for his full blown … Continue reading →
Lee Young Ae is basically the female Won Bin, except with her marriage and being the mother to twins, her sabbatical from acting for the last decade has been transferring her life from the busy big screen to the busy personal sphere. Her last project was Sympathy for Lady Vengeance in 2005 but she remains most famous for Dae Jang … Continue reading →
Ugh, someone get me some smelling salts please. And a fainting couch as well. Yoo Seung Ho‘s first post-military magazine spread is out courtesy of Grazia and it’s spectacular. I’ve liked the magazine since it did the incredibly beautiful and full of love wedding pictorial featuring Ji Sung and Lee Bo Young in Spain, and once again Grazia delivers European … Continue reading →
