It’s a rare treat to take a peek behind the curtains into a Korean entertainers family life, and even rarer that its coming from a huge A-lister like Ha Ji Won. In the December issue of The Celebrity magazine, Ha Ji Won coordinated a photoshoot with her entire family which took place at their home. The concept was “a warm … Continue reading →
A very Merry Christmas to everyone and good tidings leading into the new year! I’m happy to send 2013 off even if there are currently two dramas that own my heart. Both dramas could start 2014 off with a bang or end up my first disappointment of the year but at least it’s making me exceeding happy right now. In … Continue reading →
The holiday season is fast approaching like a freight train and with it comes holiday cheer and hopefully more charitable givings. Elle Korea has assembled a huge group of actors, actresses, and idols for it’s annual “Share Happiness” charity photo campaign. The ginormous list of participating stars include: Jung Kyung Ho, Lee Jin Wook, Daniel Henney, Lee Bo Young, Han … Continue reading →
I still remember New Year’s Day of 2013 which started off with a bomb blast of news in the Korean entertainment industry with the jawdropping and out-of-left-field coupling of A-list beauty and middling actress Kim Tae Hee with Hallyu superstar Rain. That led to a year’s worth of dating news and with the year about to wrap up in a … Continue reading →
I haven’t seen either of these hot namjas in awhile, and it’s rather serendipitous that they both have a Rainie Yang shared connection and happened to show up the same brand event at different spots on the same week. I guess I’m trying to say – it’s totally not random at all to do a joint post on Joseph Chang … Continue reading →
I’m fairly certain Taiwanese-American singer-songwriter-actor Leehom Wang is talented and considered handsome in some quarters. I wouldn’t know because I don’t find him the least bit handsome or his projects interesting. With my disinterest I had to play catch up understand why he was the hottest topic in the Chinese entertainment pages for the last few days. Leehom has been … Continue reading →
Kim Bum is singlehandedly giving a lesson on living the jetsetting lifestyle. Even for an entertainer his non-stop travels seem a bit extreme, though his country hopping in Europe last month was some well-earned time off with new girlfriend Moon Geun Young. Nothing makes travel more bearable than a new honey to do it with. Kim Bum showed up at … Continue reading →
Looks like the media tent city at Incheon airport I was talking about was erected like I anticipated as tons of Korean media outlets awaited the return of current entertainment It-couple du jour Moon Geun Young and Kim Bum. The Goddess of Fire co-stars grew close while filming the drama and started dating as the drama wrapped. Not content to … Continue reading →
The South Korean entertainment grand dating train of 2013 continues unabated, and with a little over one month left I’m dying to have it go out with a giant bang. What other fantasy pairings might be able to shock and awe? Long time bachelor Song Seung Heon secretly dating Park Min Young since they did Dr. Jin hence her acting … Continue reading →
I have no clue what Kim Bum‘s agency King Kong Entertainment was thinking when it talked to the press today and revealed that Kim Bum and Moon Geun Young was set to return from Europe back to Korea this weekend. That’s pretty much asking the media hordes to descend on Incheon airport and make a tent family there over the … Continue reading →
Last week C-ent was rocking and rolling with dating, engagement, and wedding news. Everywhere you turn couples were outing themselves or showing their love to the world (slang for such behavior is “sunning their syrupy love”). So it’s rather apropos that in this current environment of stars in love that triple talented singer-rapper-actor Vanness Wu finally tied the knot this weekend … Continue reading →
This is an interesting bromance and show concept, but I’m not sure if its market-tested properly. Kim Ji Hoon and Lee Ki Woo are pairing up for a cable network show geared towards introducing lifestyle concepts to men. Not exactly a Queer Eye for the Straight Guy, but more like the metrosexual straight guy recommendations for the every man. Both … Continue reading →
Forget how shocking the news of Nicky Wu and Liu Shi Shi dating a good two plus years after they first co-starred in Bu Bu Jing Xin together. I vividly remember the drama casting backlash – Nicky too old and ugly, Kevin too old and ugly, Shi Shi not enough screen presence to play Ruo Xi, why is Yuan Hong … Continue reading →
