I wrote my first impressions of Missing You after one episode, and I have the same sentiments even after watching the second episode with only one additional thought. I have a feeling I’m going to be gaga crazy about Yoo Seung Ho’s second male lead character Kang Hyun Joon. This is not because I love Yoo Seung Ho, but stems … Continue reading →
Taiwan is very similar to Korea in the sense that in both countries there are a select group of actors who do exclusively or mostly movies. In the cinematic world they get more critical acclaim along with a smaller fanbase. I find some actors or actresses much better suited for the big screen due to their onscreen presence and acting … Continue reading →
Wahhhhh, chukhaye Tae Woong oppa! What a way to spice up the normally slow Sunday news cycle. Uhm Tae Woong has just announced that he’s getting married in early January 2013! You sly puppy dog, dating so surreptitiously without anyone being the wiser. Good for you, oppa, and I am so so SOOOOO happy for him. I love Uhm Tae … Continue reading →
I never need an excuse to post about Lee Jun Ki, nor do I need to make up a legitimate reason for splashing his pictures everywhere. I miss him, and he’s so gorgeous back in modern wear, so what more can I say? Lee Jun Ki wrapped Arang and the Magistrate two weeks ago, delivering a fantasy-esque happy ending to … Continue reading →
This is such a precious pairing I hope the drama gods make it happen one day. Park Shin Hye and Lee Seung Gi hosted the K-pop Collection concert in Okinawa, Japan this past weekend, and I swear I almost got blinded by the combination sexy and cute. I don’t know how both actors pull it off, but they are simultaneously … Continue reading →
While 4 and 8 were duking it out for the beauty and the Qing empire, somewhere off to the side 13 was chuckling as he murmured “sorry bros, I’ve already got the girl.” I can always (ALWAYS) count on Yuan Hong and Liu Shi Shi to give HongShi shippers the world over some truly gaspworthy public cute moments at least … Continue reading →
One great bonus of having Moon Geun Young make her acting comeback after a two year school hiatus is that she’s also back in various periodicals for my viewing pleasure. She’s as good a print model as she is acting, though I have to confess she’s not my favorite when it comes to posing. I find that she doesn’t own … Continue reading →
I always appreciate when a drama couple I love gets tapped for endorsement deals together, thereby adding more swooniness for me to savor long after the drama has ended. Kim Soo Hyun and Suzy continue to be my adorable bias from Dream High and I always slurp up their cuteness anytime I get any. The clothing brand Bean Pole did … Continue reading →
It’s official, Joe Cheng just PWNED all celebrities doing their mandatory military service. This is especially true of his BFFs Ethan Ruan, also currently serving but assigned to a desk job in Taipei, and Mike He, who is like pushing the age limit by days and still hasn’t enlisted yet. Joe enlisted 2 months ago and after completing his basic … Continue reading →
Oh hubba hubba hubba. Lee Jun Ki tweeted a picture of him wearing a tux holding a flute of champagne and I felt my brain temporarily suspend all activity as my eyeballs took over to drink up the perfection of his visage in modern garb. His tweet accompanying the picture asked if we were missing the modern day version of … Continue reading →
I don’t know if the Taiwanese sense of humor that its stars have with the media and the fans translates elsewhere, because many times the stars will say something totally outrageous and far-fetched because they know it won’t be taken seriously. This week Sonia Sui was in Busan for the film festival along with a contingent of Taiwanese filmmakers and … Continue reading →
It’s really a flashing red neon sign that an entertainer is back in business after a hiatus when he or she starts showing up on red carpets and variety shows. It’s been nearly two years since Moon Geun Young wrapped Mary Stayed Out All Night, and she’s been a full-time student at Sungkyunkwan University during her time away from acting. … Continue reading →
I find it such a cosmic coincidence that my previous post on Ha Ji Won was about her doing a CF for a bank that had her wearing a stunning one-shoulder evening gown at some awards show where she was caught practicing her swing during the downtime. I mentioned that her swing was legit, as all golfers can spot those … Continue reading →
