I like to keep a casual eye on all my fave actors and actresses even if I don’t keep tabs on on their every move. Checking back in with Yoon Eun Hye after the new year saw updates from her filming the Korean-Chinese joint production movie After Love in Beijing with costar Park Shi Hoo. The two leads were filming … Continue reading →
Normally a K-movie premiere only gets my attention for the fashion parade of top stars attending to support their buddies in the cast. For once my attention is completely on male lead Lee Min Ho at the bustling premiere for his soon-to-be-released noir movie Gangnam 1970 costarring Kim Rae Won. I haven’t seen this level of top star fandom interaction … Continue reading →

It’ll be a nice way to warm up the cold weather for couples heading to the theater, I’m already getting cute and sweet vibes from the previews and posters. Leads Lee Seung Gi and Moon … Continue reading →
There will be no shortage of Chinese-Korean joint productions going forward with plenty already in the pipeline and could be released as soon as early 2015. I approach each with caution but some definitely look more promising than others. Such is the upcoming Honey Enemy (情敵蜜月 Love Rival’s Honeymoon) starring Kwon Sang Woo, Zhang Yu Qi, Wallace Huo, and Shi … Continue reading →
While it’s wait and see for what the first batch of K-dramas hold come January 2015, the same goes for K-movies and one of the first to arrive feels a bit random for the winter season. Love Forecast (Korean title Today’s Love) starring Lee Seung Gi and Moon Chae Won drops January 15th which is too late for the Christmas … Continue reading →
Gomen ne if anyone arrived at the playground and had a momentary freak out to see the scary exposed muscle giant monster head above in the poster. That’s a Titan, and not just any Titan as we’re getting the first look at the live-action Colossus Titan. I’m so excited and scared it’s not even funny. The anticipation keeps building in Japan, … Continue reading →
I’m usually a few months behind on following up with Asian movies that I’m anticipating. I’m too lazy to schlep to the theaters that play foreign films and a few months wait is never too taxing when there are other dramas and movies to watch. This past summer saw the second and third Rurouni Kenshin movies premiere in Japan, titled … Continue reading →
I love me a good OTP reunion but it’s even better if the set up is completely changed up. The reunion is already putting the same two people together, why repeat the exact same thing even if I loved it the first time around. The pairing of Lee Seung Gi and Moon Chae Won isn’t exactly the typical OTP reunion … Continue reading →
Oh boy is this uncomfortable to look at. Perhaps the jarring reaction is mostly due to unexpectedly seeing the first movie still from the upcoming Korean-Chinese romance movie After Love starring Park Shi Hoo and Yoon Eun Hye. I was hoping to ease myself into this movie, try to test out the waters to see if I can get over my … Continue reading →
For those bemoaning why so-and-so actor has already gotten drama leading and Kim Woo Bin still hasn’t, I don’t think that criminally hot namja is losing any sleep over it. He’s already the lead in the upcoming Korean heist movie Criminal Designer (formerly known as The Technicians) costarring the underrated Lee Hyun Woo and the always entertaining Go Chang Seok. … Continue reading →
If the quality of a movie could be gauged by how happy the cast is filming it, then The Tailors (Sanguiwon) is a sure fire win based on the bursting with joy cast at the movie press conference this week. I’m not exaggerating by describing the cast at the press conference as so giddy and glowing one would think they … Continue reading →
I’m can’t get over how cute the official posters are for the upcoming rom-com movie Today’s Love. Starring Lee Seung Gi and Moon Chae Won, the movie chronicles a part of childhood friends who grow up with the girl always using the hapless guy as back up while never seeing him as a potential love interest. Talk about being majorly … Continue reading →
Dang it, the upcoming C-movie version of Miss Granny is doing a bang up job of challenging the age old adage that remakes inevitably suck in comparison to the original. The movie got a lot more buzz when it was first announced over the casting of Luhan (formerly of EXO) in a supporting role, which goes to show the lack … Continue reading →
