I’m the kind of drama fan that one good performance can really change the way I view an actor. Prior to My Princess, Kim Tae Hee was on my shit list, despite her sunny disposition and inability to take a bad picture. But after MP, while I’ll never consider her a good actress, her performance as Lee Seol was just … Continue reading →
Lately everyone is rightfully swooning over Ji Sung‘s performance in Protect the Boss, but his girlfriend Lee Bo Young actually has her own drama Hooray for Love airing on the weekends right now as well. With their crazy shooting schedules they probably never see each other these days. But with a 7 year relationship in their pockets, they are as … Continue reading →
Yoon Kye Sang is gearing up for the upcoming third installment of the popular sitcom High Kick, where he will be playing a doctor again (of Western medicine this time). I never watch sitcoms so will pass on this one yet again, but the first two installments were wildly popular so this one ought to be no different and great … Continue reading →
When is Shin Mina coming back with an acting project next? She’s in every other CF out there, or so it seems like, but I’m eager to see what she does next on either the big or small screen. As an actress she’s an acquired taste for me – I much prefer her performances low key such as her personification of goodness and … Continue reading →
Do you want a Mike He for every day of the work week? Well, Semir Jeans is here to make your dreams come true. Via some photos, of course. Sheesh, you didn’t really think if you bought a pair of their jeans, they will mail you a Mike? It’s nice to see Mike get back to his modeling roots, and … Continue reading →
Looking nice, Ji Sub! For the September issue of Esquire Korea, So Ji Sub is on the cover and graces the inside pages with what appears to be a photo spread concept revolving around what I shall call geek-suit-chic. The suits don’t quite fit right, the colors are a bit off, and some styles just need a pocket protector to complete the … Continue reading →
The Taiwanese entertainment is comparatively much smaller than either the Japanese or Korean counterparts, so A-list actors and actresses are pretty much always playing musical chairs in terms of pairing up for dramas and endorsements. The latest pairing puts Joe Cheng together with Cyndi Wang for the Nadia Sportswear Fall Collection. Of course, we all know Cyndi is currently heating … Continue reading →
Gah, I’m running out of superlatives when so many talented K-actresses turn models and drop gorgeous photospreads one after another. Lee Min Jung was in Paris recently for an Instyle Korea shoot. Min Jung is such a pretty baby, so effortlessly stunning. She doesn’t do haute couture poses well (unlike Han Hyo Joo who has a knack for going against … Continue reading →
After following Song Joong Ki‘s career since he managed to bring the cute in Triple against three incredibly hot men (Lee Jung Jae, Yoon Kye Sang, and Lee Seon Kyun), I’m always taken aback as to how high fashion his magazine shoots tends to be. I concede he looks much younger than his age, but it’s like the magazines go … Continue reading →
[Announcement: The virus attack has been vanquished successfully! You can access my site through any search engine referral or RSS feeder again. Hooray!] Ji Sung was one of the first Korean actors I got to know when I started watching K-dramas years ago, so it’s pretty nice to see him suddenly get a surge of new fans recently because of … Continue reading →
I love my Ji Hwan in any incarnation, be it his clean cut chaebol president in Lie to Me, or now his edgy fashion gunslinger look for L’Officiel Hommes. Kang Ji Hwan is currently preparing for his movie Tomorrow’s News to begin filming, so it’s nice to see him busy with endorsements during the downtime. I love how he owns … Continue reading →
Gong Hyo Jin and Cha Seung Won are probably the two most high-fashion couture actor/models in Korean entertainment. Long, leggy, lithe, with non-conventionally pretty but rather striking features, if fashion week in Paris needed two Korean actors, they would be the ones I’d send. September’s issue of Harper’s Bazaar Korea reunites them for the first time after their hit rom-com … Continue reading →
Going to Hawaii to do a photoshoot after wrapping a drama appears to be the recent trend. Yoon Eun Hye did a Harper’s Bazaar photoshoot in Hawaii right after finishing Lie to Me, and now two other May K-drama actresses have followed suit. Sung Yuri completed Romance Town and Park Min Young wrapped City Hunter, then both girls went to … Continue reading →
