Ella had her real life version of We Got Married this past weekend in Taipei to her Malaysian-Chinese fiancée Alvin Lai. It was a star-studded lavish affair that officially takes Ella off the market, leaving Hebe Tian as the only S.H.E. member still single. Get on it, Hebe! I love how the three girls are genuinely good friends who entered … Continue reading →
I love weddings. Less for the drunken toasts and the ring bearers who won’t walk down the aisle, but more for the pretty dresses and all around chance to dress up. Ella is getting married on May 5th to her Malaysian-Chinese boyfriend, but they’ve spent the last two months on pre-wedding related fun times. They took their official wedding pictures … Continue reading →
I’m don’t watch variety shows, probably because I already bend time and space enough as it is. Anymore and I’ll be tempting the drama fates to smite me. But I totally got interested this week in checking out April 10th’s episode of the K-talk show Strong Heart, which was formerly hosted by Kang Ho Dong and Lee Seung Gi, but … Continue reading →
Hot dang it, China, why are you so ridiculously good to the fangirl in me.

As if to out do her good friend Yang Mi (who only recently confirmed her real life romance with her drama … Continue reading →
Smoldery leading man Go Soo is officially off the singles market, not that any of us mere mortals ever had a chance with him.

The short list of Taiwanese male stars just decreased by one, at least for the next twelve months. Trailed by the hordes of paparazzi, Ethan Ruan was whisked off to Cheng Gong Ling (成功嶺 Success Peak), the training camp near Taichung where all mandatory service members start their training.

Everyone around me has been bugging me to write this post, and of course I dragged my feet until the last possible moment. Part of me feels like I’m pulling a Brett Favre (I’m retiring, oh wait, I’m back, nope, retiring for good, just a moment I’ll play one more year…..), but it’s the sad reality that I simply cannot … Continue reading →
The Min-Min couple has apparently broken up, so says one-half of the cute pair. Park Min Young‘s agency just confirmed that the couple broke up last year after dating for not that long, but was hesitant to reveal it due to concerns about public reaction. I dunno, I figure fans on both sides would be thrilled, through the shortness of … Continue reading →
You know a drama has been filming for quite a long time if both leads manage to celebrate their birthday on the set. Office Girls has been filming for over half a year now, and first Roy Qiu celebrated turning 30, now he’s followed by his leading lady Alice Ke celebrating turning 27. I can’t image a better way to … Continue reading →

You know who you are, dongsaengs. Of course waking up with Song Joong Ki on my mind means I need to post about … Continue reading →
