There is another sad news out of K-ent this week and its the passing of a singer that I remember his OST songs so well is some of my favorite K-dramas. R&B and ballad singer Wheesung has passed away, having been found deceased in his home and the cause of death is under investigation though it’s being initially identified as … Continue reading →
So this is a little embarrassing event for C-actor Chen Zhe Yuan to kick off his 2025 new year.

The song began to play including his sung lyric lines but his microphone … Continue reading →
Sometimes pasta is just yummy pasta but for TW-singer Hebe Tian it’s the source of two years and counting being cancelled by Mainland China. You would think she doesn’t care, and so far she hasn’t, but she was invited to two singing events in Mainland China in May and was planning to go until last minute the whole thing blew … Continue reading →
It’s nice to have friends in talented places and the very very multi-talented Jo Jung Seok deserves all the love.

Musical The Phantom of the Opera was my entry into the world of stage where it’s been a lifelong love affair. The score and songs remain excellent to this day but once I got older I realized how sus the entire story was haha. Everyone loved the Phantom over lame Raoul but honestly the former was basically groomer/kidnapper. Anyhoo, the … Continue reading →
I feel like the real life friendship between IU and Lee Jun Ki happened because they are both so hard working and cool in real life and because it is sort of karma for how much the viewers shipped them in Moon Lovers and we all got shafted. It wasn’t just the sad ending, we knew what Bu Bu Jing … Continue reading →
This is such a shocking and terribly sad accident and it’s trending all over global news portals. HK 12-member boy bang Mirror was holding a large concert at Hong Kong Coliseum on Friday when during the performance one of the three giant LED screens hanging over the stage suddenly fell and unfortunately struck two backup dancers.

I still contend that the news about K-stars testing positive for COVID-19 this year in 2021, the second full year of the pandemic, is around 2-3 a month. Nothing wildly high but it’s been steady and not surprising as stars need to travel overseas for work (as permitted) and also film dramas/movies/CFs/perform on stage without wearing a mask. Thankfully the … Continue reading →
The new year in 2021 brings lots of unknowns in every aspect but for K-pop I’m excited to see what’s in store in terms of really catch tunes.

I’m all for shows to go on as long as it can be done safely, and this year South Korea has managed a dash more normalcy with adjusted events than other countries. The biggest music event of the year is always the Mnet Asian Music Awards (MAMA) which has been held overseas or in multiple venues on different days in … Continue reading →
I almost confused Rainie Yang with Jolin Tsai in these new album promos because this totally looks like a Jolin themed concept. Rainie continues to focus on her singing career and she’s coming back this fall with a new album Bad Lady and the title single is influenced by Trap music and has her transforming into different bad ladies in … Continue reading →
