It’s the end of an era, both with how entertainment now works and the fitting conclusion for a J-ent titan. Johnny Kitagawa passed away today at the age of 87, best known for the 1982 founding of agency Johnny’s Entertainment which went on to create Japan’s most incredible streak of hit male idol groups. Included are SMAP, Arashi, TOKIO, Tackey … Continue reading →
Oh man, Kang Ji Hwan is going to cancelled so hard by me if this is all true. Police arrested Kang Ji Hwan this morning at his Seoul apartment for allegations of rape and sexual assault. The incident happened just yesterday on July 9th, with the actor drinking with two women with the acronym A and B who were employees … Continue reading →
I would have totally noticed the change so I’m glad Bolin Chen made the announcement in his own adorable way. The actor isn’t the most traditionally handsome type but really surged to perfect boyfriend status thanks to hit drama In Time With You. One of his visual traits is a dark mole on his right cheekbone about an inch below … Continue reading →
What did I say about using the tidal wave of the Song-Song divorce to release bad news right now because it’ll just slide right under. K-ent has another breakup but this one happened last year in 2018 though it is revealed only now. Long time dating couple Lee Chung Ah and Lee Ki Woo have confirmed their split but it … Continue reading →
K-actress Song Hye Kyo has been in the industry over two decades and remains a consummate professional even in the midst of personal turmoil. She made her first public appearance this weekend at a Sulhwasoo skincare brand event in Sanya, China, over a week after her soon-to-be ex-husband Song Joong Ki filed for divorce. So the Song-Song couple won’t be … Continue reading →
There’s some happy news coming out of C-ent though it’s still rumor at this time. C-actress Zheng Shuang will reportedly tie the knot this coming October 2019 in Bali with her non-celebrity boyfriend of one year Zhang Heng. He’s a gaming company CEO so hardly a nobody but she’s got a string of actor boyfriend behind her so I guess … Continue reading →
Seeing a star totally stripped of all artifice and accoutrements is a good reminder and underneath is just a person. And underneath a top star career spanning 15 years is now disgraced singer-actor Park Yoochun who has managed to go even lower than his sex scandal three years ago. Yoochun was released from police detention today after over two months … Continue reading →
Welcome to the Hotel Del Luna, you can check in but you can’t check out. Oh wait, you probably can’t check in since it’s for the supernatural beings only. The drama released the official poster to start off the week showing all the leads together in the lobby of their art deco and slightly run down hotel. See the cobwebs … Continue reading →
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. She passed much too early, leaving behind a director husband and their 11-year old son after being found … Continue reading →
Finally a happy news to break up the bad news week that was last week in K-ent. Top K-actor Kim Soo Hyun has been discharged from military service! His nearly two years felt much longer (to me) for some reason and on July 1st the quintessential boy-next-door completed his civic duty to the country and will be diving back to … Continue reading →
Who could have imagined that 2019 could have a bigger K-ent news story than the Burning Sun/Seungri/YG/Jung Joon Young collective scandal. Sadly we’re only halfway through the year and the shocking Soong Joong Ki and Song Hye Kyo divorce could eclipse it, currently it’s the only thing K-ent news media is talking about. 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 →
