It’s nice to see Moon Chae Won in the news albeit in a CF setting. She doesn’t have any current movie or drama to promote and that’s usually a lull in getting updates but this month a skincare brand released two new promos with Moon Chae Won against a pretty pink and blue background. Her name gets bandied about a … Continue reading →
I’m tempted to write nothing to accompany this post sharing the just released pictorial featuring K-actor Hyun Bin for the April 2018 edition of Arena Homme magazine. This is legit a picture speaks a thousand words, and eight pictures are that thousand words to infinity turning into gibberish for just how movie star leading man handsome Binnie continues to be as … Continue reading →
After spending a year studying abroad in 2016 through 2017, C-actor Hu Ge has been back for some time in China but has eschewed the drama and movie route to pursue a passion on stage. Since late last year he’s been doing theater and laying low vis-a-vis the glitz and glamour of C-ent promotions. I miss seeing him onscreen but … Continue reading →
Checking in on Moon Geun Young is a regular part of my K-ent coverage and it’s nice to see new pictures of her and get a new interview to start 2018. She sat down with EBS1 show Time of Being Another and actually broke down crying when reminded of a long ago interview she gave when she was 21 years old. For that … Continue reading →
I’m surprised by this news solely due to timing as I thought it was already done with. K-actor Lee Min Ho will be doing his mandatory four-weeks of basic training starting this month despite enlisting last year in May of 2017 after finishing up his drama Legend of the Blue Sea and doing some farewell fan meetings. He’s been serving … Continue reading →
March is here like a wet tiger so it’s nice to see an update from K-actress Yoon Eun Hye that’s bright and charming. She posted a series of picture updates on her SNS account taking selfies with two of her friends. Yoon Eun Hye clearly is very close to these two girlfriends and she mentioned in the captions that they … Continue reading →
A double congrats to C-actress Liu Shi Shi on turning 30 years old this March 10th, 2018 and landing a gorgeous striking pictorial and cover for L’Officiel Hommes magazine. Her freshness belies the nearly fifteen years she’s been in the acting industry, and I’ve been following her career just as long. Before 30 years old she’s already played iconic period … Continue reading →
In a curious case of someone shrank my pants, K-actor Hyun BIn was in Milan this week attending the Salvatore Ferragomo fashion show as expected when he was spotted jauntily jetting out of Incheon airport looking like a dapper city gangster. I love the aubergine dress shirt with cream colored jacket but the suit itself is so ill-tailored, that or … Continue reading →
K-actor Lee Jun Ki is totally the football to my Charlie Brown. No matter how many times I know he’s likely not going to end up with a great drama project I still can’t help but get hopeful and have to watch it. I loved his Time Between Dog and Wolf but taking two of the success elements separately – … Continue reading →
With all the recent attention on mandatory military enlistment in South Korea, and the stars or powerful folks who seek to delay or get out of it, I hope K-netizens are mollified to start the week off with new pictures of acknowledged boy-next-door Hallyu star Kim Soo Hyun doing his military service in his full capacity. Kim Soo Hyun enlisted … Continue reading →
Pyeongchang is the place to be in South Korea right now as the country ramps up for the 2018 Winter Olympics starting on February 8th and going for two weeks. Recent Olympic star ambassadors Jang Geun Seok and Lee Dong Wook didn’t look their best when doing promo events but newly minted Smile Ambassador for the city tourism push Kim … Continue reading →
A sure sign of time’s relentless passing is when one is forced to examine memories of the past with the reality of the present. In the 2015 issue of GQ Taiwan, the magazine featured one of the most critically acclaimed Taiwanese heartthrob movie actors of the last decade, in a pictorial and interview and addresses his aging head on. The spread is … Continue reading →
December 26th is the day after Christmas, and also the birthday of C-actor Wu Lei it turns out. Age starts to mean less after a certain point but in the trajectory of child-teen acting prodigies it means a lot because the audience is curious to see watch a child grow up before our eyes. Wu Lei has been a child … Continue reading →
