Right after news broke that director Guo Jing Ming had two more C-dramas in preps now that he was finished with Fangs of Fortune, both starring his protege Tian Jia Rui, now comes the female lead in the first one. The drama is titled Ran Shuang Wei Zhou (燃霜为昼) and the female lead will be Gulinazha. Excuse me while I … Continue reading →
I like how the first teaser for upcoming tvN drama Love Next Door shows the leads just growing up together in a very lowkey way. Jung Hae In and Jung So Min are coming to the small screen next month on August 17th and we should all be so grateful to have a rom-com on the way especially when there … Continue reading →
Hahaha, omg are Dilraba Dilmurat fans bored or simply trolling here. Because there is no way this is even worthy of a discussion because the answer is so one-sided. This week the fandom of Dilraba and Ju Jing Yi have been waging an online war of words battle over which one is the top actress, and by top it means … Continue reading →
Those in the know about how C-ent works won’t be surprised by this but it is a good representation to confirm that anything happening is either tacitly allowed or more likely promoted by the stars in question. Lost You Forever Part 2 is past the midway point in its shorter than Part 1 airing length and this time around there … Continue reading →
So I’ve seen enough celeb scandals in South Korea to know that the first defense is a good offense. And the agency for Byun Woo Seok did not do that, to date he still has not released a statement explaining his side of what happened and also apologizing regardless of right and wrong but simply that people around him inconvenienced … Continue reading →
So I’ve been dum-dum-hum-de-dum-ing along expecting word of when space romance big budget K-drama When the Stars Gossip (Ask the Star) with Gong Hyo Jin and Lee Min Ho was going to get a confirmed airing date on tvN. The drama has finished filming over a year ago with principal production between April 2022 to January 2023. Now it’s become … Continue reading →
I really like C-actor Dylan Wang but I often get the sense that he’s cosplaying when I see him onscreen. In his past dramas he just came off as cosplaying a cold tech executive, a revenge driven fake eunuch, and now he’s cosplaying a grizzly young rookie cop. I didn’t mention his popularity rising turn as an abused but caring … Continue reading →
So this is really recent airing scheduling change rumors but we should know in the next week or two whether it’s going to happen or not. Tang dynasty drama The Story of Pearl Girl with Zhao Lu Si and Liu Yu Ning was slated for a Q4 2024 basically end of year airing which fits with the filming and post-production … Continue reading →
Forget that the first half of 2024 is already over, but now it’s preview time for the fall almost like the summer is slipping by faster than ever. The Chinese fashion magazines released the previews for the most coveted annual cover which is the September edition, and normally it’s top models but sometimes top stars also get selected. This year … Continue reading →
This summer must feel like the best of times, the worst of times for actor Byun Woo Seok. Having a meteoric rise in popularity means heightened scrutiny and also nonstop travel and events for him. So it’s not wildly unexpected to land himself in a scandal and I just hope the resolution is handled well by him and his agency … Continue reading →
I haven’t watched a weekend K-drama in years but will always remember fondly the heydays when there was always a chance to chance upon a good one. Not that the weekend dramas in recent years weren’t good but there seems to be a lack of excitement and buzz around any to make it worth checking out. Two bigger names will … Continue reading →
Please keep adding more cast members to K-drama Knock Off, this is the most entertaining casting train I can recall in years and makes for good positive news in a week full of negative stuff. Woo Do Hwan is the latest to join the 1997 period era set Knock Off, with his agency saying that he will be playing a … Continue reading →
One of the top hates of South Korean is when the rich/powerful/famous misuse their authority. Case in point warm nuts Korea Air heiress and her Nut Rage Incident a few years back. Last weekend’s complaint against actor Byun Woo Seok and the actions of his privately hired security at the airport inconveniencing and overstepping their bounds against travelers by checking … Continue reading →
