I’m in such a good mood and June is totally the month of wedding hopes and dreams so there isn’t an ounce of snark in me writing this congratulatory post for Korean stars Mina and Ryu Philip on their marriage this weekend. The couple made gossip waves three years ago in 2015 when they announced a relationship with the age … Continue reading →
It’s crazy that Jang Nara looks exactly the same today as when she debuted 16 years ago with Nonstop 2 back in 2002. Her fountain of youth has helped her maintain a very steady acting career, one that even went over to China for a few years in the late 2000s and now back to Korea full time. She’s not … Continue reading →
Color me surprised that C-actress Tang Yan has a twin sister! Wait a minute, nope, I mean color me impressed that C-actress Tang Yan has officially the Madame Tussaud’s sweepstakes. The famous wax museum tapping a star for a wax model is a sign that one has made it famous enough for a waxy doppleganger to be created, except the … Continue reading →
A publicity stunt begets another and then another as the Yang Ye Won photo scandal in May now turns squarely into collateral damage territory. Recall that Youtube star Yang Ye Won published a teary video about how naked pictures of her were published without her permission, naming the studio that took the pictures and asserting she was assaulted by men. … Continue reading →
Summer and full makeup are basically mortal enemies as the heat melts the layer of facial armor and the skin longs to breathe. It’s a breath of fresh air to see a new makeup pictorial featuring famous Chinese and Japanese actresses without a drop of makeup, barefaced and beautiful for the world to see. Tang Wei, Jessie Li, Ni Ni, … Continue reading →
It’s the return of the one and only Chun Song Yi, bow down and mad respect. I loved K-actress Jeon Ji Hyun in You From Another Star, a combination of an awesomely written unique character and her balls to walls performance that feels like only she could have pulled off. She didn’t hit the jackpot again with her followup drama … Continue reading →
This is surprising news in a way that likely wasn’t the intended surprise. K-ent reports that actor Kim Joon has been secretly married for the past three years to a non-celebrity woman and they have a two year old daughter. I was surprised not for the secret marriage/baby news but that Kim Joon is still a celebrity! I don’t mean … Continue reading →
It may not be New York during Fleet Week but for K-ent fans this is pretty on point with four top stars looking mighty fine and showcasing their talents during military service. June 6th is Korean Memorial Day and at the 63rd celebration the army trotted out corporals Joo Won and Im Shi Wan along with private first class Ji … Continue reading →
Boy would I Iove a gorgeous blue bouquet in hand when I get off a flight, but then again it’s probably a welcome reserved for the likes of top star Song Hye Kyo who was welcomed with media intense arms when she arrived in Hong Kong this week. She’s traveled quietly overseas with husband Song Joong Ki and those airport … Continue reading →
Whether you like Jung Hae In or not, and I am curious to see among the readers who likes him now, the young man has made it in terms of popularity and star branding. In the monthly poll of top CF stars, which has been dominated by Gong Yoo for the last year and a half, and prior to that … Continue reading →
It’s probably best to say nothing and do nothing if one is a K-ent celebrity, at least until it’s clear what the truth is. Perhaps that’s turning a blind eye but jumping the gun just to support the underdog or fight for the rights of those weaker may cause blowback as Suzy is experiencing this week. Youtuber Yang Ye Won … Continue reading →
It’s probably a smart idea for stars to use SNS only for their professional lives and have it curated by their agent or assistant. There are way too many SNS accidental or ill-advised posts and it’s time to add one more from this weekend as K-actress Lee El posted a sleeping picture of her musical costar Kim Jae Wook. He’s … Continue reading →
Consider me surprised that TV Chosun sageuk The Grand Prince (Daegun) did so well (on cable) in ratings, becoming the highest rated drama for the cable network’s history since its launch in 2011. Starring Joo Sang Wook, Yoon Shi Yoon, and Jin Se Yeon, the drama got ratings of 2.519% at the premiere all the way up to 5.627% in … Continue reading →
