So C-drama In Blossom with Ju Jing Yi and Liu Xue Yi has turned into a surprise underdog, doing better in viewership, buzz, and reviews than expected. It’s not a hit just doing better than anyone thought and is just one third through its run so could turn into a smallish hit by the end. Another surprise is supporting actress … Continue reading →
So a bank and a soju brand separately have CF contracts expiring with K-actress Han So Hee right now and both have said it will not renew with her and are looking for a new star to rep the brand.

So……uhm…… it’s totally fine thirsting after Kim Soo Hyun now that he is 36 years old. Right? Right! I mean, this boy-man-hottie has been gracing us with his K-ent presence for close to 20 years now and it’s really that he rose meteorically at the early part of his career that he gets saddled with the boyish image.

A new C-drama will start filming next month in April and the leads are Jing Tian and Alen Fang (Fang Yi Lun) adapted from the novel The Brocaded Tale of The Girl Si (似锦 Si Jin).

C-actor Xu Zheng Xi (Jeremy Tsui) posted on his Weibo a message saying farewell to his spot as an actor, thanking fans for their longtime support, and apologizing for creating any trouble.

I don’t know why Hyeri needs to issue an apology or anything at all, girl has done nothing wrong. But in K-ent she probably feels pressure for having causing scrutiny on the situation, i.e. creating a scene so to speak. She issued an apology today for creating a situation from her Instagram post after rumors of Ryu Jun Yeol and … Continue reading →

The tabloid was clearly in Hawaii and staking out Han So Hee and Ryu Jun Yeol, enough to get these clear and pretty close-up shots of the two that are hard to deny they definitely spent time together there. But before these pictures could be released a … Continue reading →
