Mind maps of drama characters have been quite popular for a few years now, as fans of a drama take the time write up what our beloved characters have rattling around in their fictional brains. For Big, this mind map might actually be useful because this is one drama that causes a lot of consternation over what Da Ran and … Continue reading →
This yeoja is seriously stunning. I often think its a travesty to film Ha Ji Won in anything less than all glammed up, because she brings the feminine oomph dialed up to 120. But then again, I think she’s a fantastic actor and can do anything. Which is why I’m hoping after she wraps the K-movie Joseon’s Angels, she’ll take … Continue reading →
TTV has had a stronghold on the Friday night time slot in TW-dramas for quite some time. Ever since The Fierce Wife was a blockbuster, many of its dramas get lots of publicity even when the ratings aren’t that robust, like Ex-Boyfriend which had an ending that stunned the viewers. With In Between wrapping up in a week, coming up is … Continue reading →
Arang and the Magistrate got a two week premiere push back thanks to the London Olympics, but the drama started filming already back in June, hence we’re lucky enough to take a peek at the first teaser already. Starring Lee Jun Ki as a ghost-seeing Joseon magistrate and Shin Mina as the titular ghost, the drama is like a smorgasbord … Continue reading →
He’s back, he’s back, he’s really really back! While Kim Nam Gil‘s imminent release from military service is getting way more publicity, since his agent has been fielding drama offers left and right, I’m way more excited about how Kim Ji Hoon totally snuck back under the radar. His entrance into military service was low key and now his release … Continue reading →
It’s not often we see Jung Woo Sung dwarfed by another actor, since he’s one of the tallest Korean actors around. Turns out he’s tall but not that tall when he was in Milan last week for the Dolce & Gabbana show. Also there was Taiwanese actor and model Godfrey Gao, and the two of them hung out and took … Continue reading →
What did I say about this drama being renamed Hands. Look at their hands! I have either became omniscient from watching too many dramas, or else my all-encompassing love for Big flipped my brain on extra-smart mode. Episode 12 reveals more plot developments that continue to validate my earlier theories, but at the same time giving me so many wonderful … Continue reading →
SBS opened it’s official website for Faith yesterday and the first set of available drama descriptions are accompanied by an official look at leads Lee Min Ho and Kim Hee Sun in character. I’ll wait until the drama releases official drama posters since these are just background sets, but I’m still sticking by my original observation that Kim Hee Sun … Continue reading →
Camping! Who else is getting a flashback to City Hall? YY? It’s all good, because if any scene in Big can evoke a memory from my favorite K-drama, then I say the drama is on the right track in giving me OTP goodness. I have to laugh at how the folks who don’t like this drama feel the need to … Continue reading →
The awesome that will be the Rurouni Kenshin movie knows no bounds. The final two-minute long movie trailer has just been released and sometime between dinner and now I scraped my jaw off the floor to write up this post. Check out my post on the teaser trailer here from a few months ago, because this tops that and then … Continue reading →
Big has been discombobulating since it started, with even my own re-adjusted expectations keep being taken for a ride. When I watched episode 11, I wondered why so little happened. But in recapping it, I realized a lot happened, just not those big plot reveals everyone has been clamoring for. Do we really need major shocking plot events to render … Continue reading →
Major spoiler pictures have leaked for episode 12 of Big, which strangely doesn’t get me all insane with glee. Don’t get me wrong, it’s beyond awesome, but Big appears to have trained me not to expect the squeeworthy moments but instead revel in the littlest touches between the OTP. My heart hurts in a good way watching Kyung Jae be … Continue reading →
Oh Big, why you have to twist my heart into knots? I’ve said that I will be patient, let you tell your story at your slower pace, but dang it I don’t deal well with revelations from all sides that are thisclose to getting discovered. Everyone has converged in Seoul and suspicions and questions are arising all around. When the … Continue reading →
