The divorce between top Korean stars Song Joong Ki and Song Hye Kyo could be/become contentious but at least one third party will not be embroiled in it further. One of the various rumors bandied out for the reason behind the Song-Song couple divorce was that Song Hye Kyo hooked up with her Boyfriend (Encounter) costar Park Bo Gum, which … Continue reading →
K-actress Jeon Mi Sun was someone I took for granted, she was in so many movies and dramas and I always knew she would deliver an impeccable performance whatever the role but without the high profile recognition that goes to the leads.

Some further updates: reportedly Song Joong Ki … Continue reading →
Hearing dating rumors this week just makes me think “how nice and quaint” when the world of star romance shipping has been torn asunder. Kim Jae Wook and Lee El are caught up in dating rumors, again, and this time it’s from some rings and a finger mole. Lee El posted an SNS picture of her hand wearing two rings, … Continue reading →

Oh. My God. I’m legit rendered speechless. I hate when tabloids are right but tabloids are so often right in dating gossip and also breakup gossip. For the past 6 months the Chinese rags have been saying that something is amiss in the high profile marriage of the Song-Song couple, namely Song Joong Ki and Song Hye Kyo who met … Continue reading →
I love an event that is coordinated to the T and such is the launch of a new and weird looking skin care device this week in Seoul.

There’s yet another a surprise wedding announcement out of Japan this weekend, marking a string of J-ent weddings since last year that is seeing a wide swatch of the eligible members of the industry settling down.
