I need someone to hold me before I collapse from laughing too hard. The first teaser and stills have been released for the upcoming C-movie adaptation of the K-drama Secret Garden, and I swear this looks as bad as I expected it would. And maybe just a smidge worse. Starring Wallace Chung, Tan Wei Wei, and Korean singer-actor Kangta, the … Continue reading →
With Missing You ramping up for its premiere in a few days, the cast is busy at work but when there is a project to promote I know there is bound to be plenty of ancillary goodies. The first main photo spread to come from one of the three leads of MY is courtesy of the ravishing Yoon Eun Hye. … 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 →
Episode 15 of Miss Rose was as fantastic as the previews indicated. The entire first half sequence at the Luo house had me in stitches. It’s wonderful for a drama to really allow its wacky side characters to display such hilarity and sweetness while pushing the story forward for the OTP. I thought Daddy Luo might have an aneurysm watching … 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 →
After turning down the second male lead in Missing You, Chun Jung Myung has stated that his next project will be a movie. His last movie Blue Salt was okay for me, but I do love it when my faves head towards Chungmuro over staying in Yeouido it always means they are scaling new heights in their acting career. This week … Continue reading →
I’m surprised by how much I’m enjoying the fake and improved Vivian, mostly because the other one was so one-note. Puff Guo is doing a swell job of playing Vivian either when she’s being insanely bitchy or even when she appears to have a heart and her feelings get hurt. This is so much better a female antagonist to have … Continue reading →
Somebody pinch me to convince me that I’m not dreaming. While I was engrossed with other dramas this week, tvN announced the casting of its next Flower Boy installment and the leads are none other than Koala darlings Yoon Si Yoon and Park Shin Hye. This new installment is called Flower Boy Next Door, and I swear I’m all set … Continue reading →
After a long busy week, settling in with my comfort drama of Miss Rose is like kicking off my pumps and snuggling into bed. MR is reliable and always satisfying, which does mean I’m starting to take it for granted. Now that Cheng Kuan and Si Yi finally break through the barrier of Vivian and her domineering father, does this … Continue reading →
The above illustrated poster for Nice Guy came courtesy of the official KBS page for the drama. For a drama that is at times intense and grim, there is a certain amount of levity about it that this illustration captures and highlights why I love it so. Maru is at the head of the pack because his decisions have driven … Continue reading →
Can I have a minute here to compose myself? I am seriously verklempt with emotion looking at the first official stills from the set of Cheongdamdong Alice with my darling Moon Geun Young making adorable faces for the cameras early in the morning during filming. She is seriously like the cheerleading energizer bunny on any of her drama or film … Continue reading →
I love that my readers (i.e. fellow drama kindred spirits) have such diverse tastes. Whenever I post about a drama, I always find someone revealing a hidden bias or sharing a fangirly side when it comes to certain actors or actresses that isn’t my personal fave and opening my eyes up. When I posted a few months ago about the … Continue reading →
As the sage Tony Stark once said, and I’ll gift his acute observation now to Yoon Eun Hye, “Doth mother know you weareth her drapes?” Though it also looks like the fabric from a sofa, so points for having multiple resemblances. The cast of MBC’s upcoming Thurs drama Missing You (I Miss You) gathered for a press conference this week … Continue reading →
