Today’s friendship goals and positive news coming out of K-ent is courtesy of cutie patootie actor Park Bo Gum. Apparently he’s living the real life version of Her Private Life sorta, being good friends with V of top idol group BTS and attending their concert like a seasoned fanboy. Park Bo Gum was spotted at a BTS concert last week … Continue reading →
It’s a good visual juxtaposition from super yellow Gong Yoo to mucho red Lee Jun Ki as we check in on the multi-talented star from Taipei this week. The actor-singer was there to rock out at a high energy fan meeting with a nod to the upcoming lunar new year next week by going mostly all red. I love the … Continue reading →
At the end, and still classy and united as always. Japan’s top boy idol group Arashi announced today that they are officially ending active group promotions at the end of 2020, leaving over a year remaining on their tenure as a group entity and leaving on such a high note it’s hard to remember an ending/pause as thoughtfully done as … Continue reading →
I’ve seen singer-actress IU perform live on stage and she’s got an incredible screen presence for one so petite not to mention singing solo without the flanking of an idol group. She spent her Christmas holidays in Taipei, holding a two night concert on the 24th and 25th as part of her 10th Anniversary Concert tour, with plenty of tracks … Continue reading →
I don’t think the star power of MAMA (Mnet Asian Music Awards) has dimmed yet and in 2018 the three location ceremony was dominated by the biggest boyband of the year BTS so plenty of people tuned in. I watched a bit just for the hosts – Jung Hae In in Korea, Park Bo Gum in Japan, and Song Joong … Continue reading →
Inclement weather did not stop the famous Korean actors and actresses slated to attend the 2010 final leg of MAMA (Mnet Asian Music Awards) to be held in Hong Kong.

On the just announced hosts the awards organizers have just pulled off a simultaneous three-peat.

I love a resilient and upfront attitude to facing scandal and really how can a star expect to keep in the public eye career nowadays without being forthright. Taiwanese actor-singer Aaron Yan held a 500 person birthday fan meeting this past weekend, deciding to go forward with the event a week after being outed by a vengeful ex who shared … Continue reading →
It’s unfortunate what was a super successful year for top K-pop groups BTS and TWICE reaching year end with a controversy, and one that appears not to be going away quickly. Both groups are on the outs with Japanese media and fans with a member’s choice of t-shirt attire that touch upon very sensitive Japanese topics. A BTS member wore … Continue reading →
The comparatively star-less Golden Bell Awards this year reminds me of how many famous Taiwanese actors and actresses from the golden idol drama days of the 2000s are rarely doing television work. One of them is Rainie Yang with her dual actress-singer hat and this year she’s been focused primarily on singing with her successful Asian multi-city concert tour for … Continue reading →
Talk about synergy and of the most sincere and timely kind. K-pop boy group BTS, and you have to be living under a rock or maybe a far off planet to not have heard of them, inked another first this week as they 7-member group spoke at a UN General Assembly meeting. They were there to support and advocate for … Continue reading →
If one aims to generate OMG what is she wearing buzz then K-pop idol Sori just delivered because even I sat up and took note of her when prior to this I had no clue of her existence as one half of a girl duo called Cocosori. I mean, what she is wearing has been done before in other colors … Continue reading →
If I had my way all boy band members would enlist at the same time and keep their group careers on the same time line. For CNBlue band mates Kang Min Hyuk and Lee Jung Shin, they are doing that as both sign in for military service on July 31, 2018, a few months after lead Jung Yong Hwa enlisted. … Continue reading →
