It’s a treat to see so much synergy going on in Ariel Lin‘s red hot acting career and personal life. She took a sabbatical from acting for the past year to do a graduate program in London from which she recently graduated and put yet another successful venture behind her. Even without acting in any new movie or dramas in … Continue reading →
King Kong Entertainment is one of the smaller outfits out there and had a bunch of actresses leave the agency this year including Kim Sun Ah, Honey Lee, Park Min Young, Sung Yuri, Song Hyo Rim and Lee Chung Ah. Its male actor stable remains quite strong including Kwang Soo and Lee Dong Wook, and this year was quite good … Continue reading →
I have no problem with the current trend for flower boys in Asian entertainment. It’s not just in K-ent, the audience in Greater China has been giggling over all the Little Fresh Meat (小鲜肉) which makes me wonder if there is a collective case of cougars running amok. I like plenty of fresh-faced pretty flower boys but that’s because I … Continue reading →
The SBS year end drama awards was shaping up to be the most star-studded of the big three since it led the way in splashy prime time dramas. A few weeks ago there was media attention on the biggest stars of the 2014 SBS dramas maybe not attending which would be a blow to the ratings for the show as … Continue reading →
If Yoo Ah In plans to enlist in the military soon then he’s setting himself up for some major movie drops next year while he’s away to keep his star shining bright. If not, and he still has some time since he’s 27-28 years old and some entertainers have delayed it until past 30, then he continues to work nonstop … Continue reading →
If the rest of the members of boy band Infinite want to get into acting, I’m game to give them a try since 2014 has been quite good to the few who have. L (Kim Myung Soo) has been acting even before this year but all his earlier acting gigs have been nonstarters as far as I’m concerned. Whether it … Continue reading →
I give a concept thumbs up to Bazaar Korea for thinking up an Audrey Hepburn homage and pulling it off beautifully with a twist. My problem is that it’s so good I wish the magazine did more rather than three pictures. Bazaar features one actress from each of the age brackets of 20-30-40 styled in an iconic instantly recognizable Audrey … Continue reading →
Please don’t let this actually become a fashion trend. A fashion blip maybe, but anything more than an one-off joke attire will mean hurting my eyes for the foreseeable future. Korea’s favorite young CF idol-actress Suzy was in Beijing this past weekend for a fan event with her group Miss A and was attired by the coordi in a top … Continue reading →
I can’t believe the normally sensibly fashionable Yoon Eun Hye gets a “what the heck is she wearing?” type post. I guess we all slip up sometimes and it is unfair to expect celebrities to always dress chic and stylish for whatever the occasion. With that said, the Korean star airport strut is one of those guaranteed moments when a … Continue reading →
I’ve liked Seo Kang Joon since I laid eyes on him in a supporting role in The Suspicious Housekeeper and the affection has continued with all his subsequent acting roles.The real life him is apparently not the brightest bulb in the shed, but with his looks he can coast on eye candy appeal for the near future while working on … Continue reading →
It’s feels like so long ago that I got to watch Kang Min Hyuk onscreen, and then I checked the calender to confirm that Heirs premiered a year ago and since then he hasn’t done another drama. He has been busy with his primary music career as the drummer for the band CNBLUE, a day job that I can attest to … Continue reading →
It’s reassuring to see Cha Seung Won looking healthy and happy as he made his first public appearance after last month’s paternity plus lawsuit shocker. For those unaware of what transpired, the short summary is that a man filed a defamation lawsuit against Cha Seung Won and his wife for misleading the public that Cha Seung Won was the birth … Continue reading →
Park Shin Hye is currently filming the upcoming SBS K-drama Pinocchio and as a fan I’m looking forward to what she delivers this time around. I’m sure plenty of viewers are waiting to see if she’s back on top after being so lackluster in her last drama Heirs, and especially checking out whether she has romantic chemistry with leading man … Continue reading →
