It’s not often you see a photoshoot where the actress is not only gorgeous in it, but the theme actually reflects something about who the actress is. Park Jin Hee, currently filming the movie Grape Candy, recently did a photo shoot for Allure Korea where her love of environmental causes was integrated into the shoot in a front and center … Continue reading →
I have a soft spot for Han Hye Jin because her big break as an actress came in the same drama where my Kang Ji Hwan had his big break as an actor – Be Strong Geun Soon, still the only daily K-drama I have ever watched, and ever intend to watch. My eyes almost wanted to sue me for … Continue reading →
I miss the Dream High gang, who created memorable high school characters and made their friendship and rivalry feel real and relatable. Of the six leads, only Kim Soo Hyun is an actor foremost, and he’s also currently the only one doing an acting project, the big-budget heist movie Thieves. Eunjung is on We Got Married but I don’t consider … Continue reading →
Looking at these pictures makes me feel nostalgic. Seeing Moon Geun Young wrapped in layers of Winter wear immediately transports me back to the magical Winter of 201o where a certain moppy-haired resourceful girl crossed paths with a languid rocker with commitment issues. It’s the dead of Summer in Seoul, but Moon Geun Young and Won Bin are already shooting … Continue reading →
What has Jung Il Woo been up to since creating yet another memorable role as the Scheduler in 49 Days? Not much actually, but we get to see his recent look via the August issue of Ceci Magazine. The concept was clearly an outdoorsy sports shoot, but his headband totally negates any ruggedness meant to be conveyed. Please cut your … Continue reading →
I’m not sure if I like these latest Vogue Girl Korea photos of Yoo Seung Ho – it feels like they are trying too hard to make him channel So Ji Sub. Yoo Seung Ho is currrently filming Warrior Baek Dong Soo, which I’ve only seen two episodes of so I haven’t gotten to his super hot future assassin character’s … Continue reading →
Anyone missing their Dokko Jin? I’m probably in the minority, having enjoyed Best Love for being a comparatively well-written rom-com, but not feeling much synergy with the OTP or the lead characters. Dokko Jin was ultimately too much of a caricature for me to memorialize, and I’m always and forever missing Cha Seung Won for his performance as Jo Gook … Continue reading →
The China advertising market is going pan-Asia these days, finding Korean actress Yoon Eun Hye and Taiwanese actor Ethan Ruan to pair up for the smartphone campaign for domestic maker Gionee. These pictures are so so cute, and Ethan and Eun Hye make a gorgeous onscreen and print couple – giving off a young, flirty, and fun vibe. I find … Continue reading →
I absolutely refuse to believe that this man-boy is 27 years old. Either he’s won the perpetual youth lottery, or I just need Song Joong Ki to do one certifiable romantic leading man role before my mind can transition him over. Oddly, he’s a good decade older than Yoo Seung Ho, but they could pass for fraternal twins of the … Continue reading →
I really don’t have much to say other than: she’s so pretty in these pictures! Yoon Eun Hye went to Hawaii almost immediately after she wrapped Lie to Me to shoot a photoshoot for Harper’s Bazaar Korea featuring Cartier jewelry. These pictures actually don’t remind me of Hawaii, it feels more like she’s in Santorini. I spent the last two … Continue reading →
It doesn’t happen often, but sometimes when the right character meets the right actor, it can make the career of someone formerly less known. 2011 might be remembered for rocketing Joseph Chang to stardom through Drunken to Love You, exactly the same way 2008 was notable for making the career for Ethan Ruan through Fated to Love You. Joseph is … Continue reading →
Apparently Summer signals the start of photobook season, as not just one, but two Taiwan actors are headed or already went to Europe to shoot their photobooks. Mike He is headed there soon, and Ming Dao already went to Italy and came back. To commemorate ten-years in the industry, Ming Dao (who just wrapped Beauties of the Emperor with Chen … Continue reading →
The three lovely cover ladies for InStyle Korea‘s 100th edition, Moon Geun Young, Kim Tae Hee, and Kim Nam Joo, also graced the inside pages with their own photospreads. Bringing you all three sets of pictures, which are very different, and yet so stunning in their own way. Geun Young rocks a edgy Gangnam-girl with-a-Hongdae-attitude, Tae Hee does a lady-takes-a-Route … Continue reading →
