I came into The King 2 Hearts because of my Ha Ji Won love, and it looks like I’m going to leave it with a massive affection for Lee Seung Gi. I’m so glad I don’t have to suffer through another dud drama of Ji Won’s like her last one, complete with her worst performance to date, and can enjoy … Continue reading →
I want now. Okay, that was a bit rude. How about this – I really need this please, good sir. The upcoming reunited-twins-C-drama Fairytale starring Lee Joon Hyuk, Janine Chang, and Peer Zhu released a 30-minute trailer that had me glued to the screen. It wasn’t good, per se, it was just drama crack. Complete with a horrific Cousin It … Continue reading →
The Korean trickle towards Chinese dramas has become a flood at this point. If your favorite K-actor or actress disappears from the K-ent news cycle for some time, chances are that he or she is making a C- or TW-drama. No joke, I can count over a dozen dramas being made or airing right now with K-stars in the lead. … Continue reading →
Who’s cried today? You can’t have watched today’s episode 7 and 8 of The King 2 Hearts without crying at some point. I really lost it during the moment when Jae Ha was taking off his tux and thinking back to his moments with Jae Kang. I so wanted to hug my all grown up puppy at that moment, but … Continue reading →
This recap was hard to write, since its hard to process dialogue and write when one is sobbing like a loony. So much happened in one episode, yet it was shockingly low key. I don’t know if the writers intended it this way, but even the most shocking or drama altering plot turn felt muted, controlled, stoic almost. But it … Continue reading →
After chapters worth of Yun Ge and Meng Jue’s are-they-are-they-not dance around each other, finally their relationship moves from nebulous to official. I can see how happy she is, having let go of the fantasy Ling gege inside her heart and accepted the real person in front of her. But just because Meng Jue came clean with Huo Cheng Jun … Continue reading →
This story gets cuter every time Ariel is asked about it, and the TW-media is all over it right now. Ariel Lin has been even more of a media darling since her hit drama In Time With You really connected with viewers and critics alike. Folks were sad when she announced she would not do any more dramas due to … Continue reading →
Just a reminder that there is no new episode of The King 2 Hearts today, as episode 7 is being preempted for elections and will air tomorrow back-to-back with episode 8. SBS is doing the same thing for Rooftop Prince, but KBS remains the lone channel of the three to maintain its regular programming. My gut tells me The Equator … Continue reading →
The producers of the upcoming C-drama Happy Noodle with Yoon Si Yoon and Li Fei Er have released a concept poster, which has such bad photoshopping its actually quaint. I’m still wrapping my head around dubbing over my Si Yoon’s magnaificent voice, but I think seeing him onscreen so soon outweighs the negatives. Check out the poster below, plus I’ve … Continue reading →
Such a cute cast! The currently filming C-drama Love Actually with Lee Da Hae, Joe Cheng, Li Yi Feng, and Anna Fang held a press conference yesterday to start the first step of promoting this drama. It will air this Summer so that is quite a fast turnaround time, but Summer is the perfect time to air a frothy rom-com. … Continue reading →
Lee Jun Ki‘s comeback music career is off to a red hot start, as if it would be anything less than explosive, considering his massive Hallyu appeal before he left for military service. This week Jun Ki was in Shanghai to attend the Oriental Billboard Awards, accepting an award and performing his new single “Born Again”. I love everything Jun … Continue reading →
For Vanness Wu‘s upcoming daily TW-drama Ti Amo Chocolate, it’s not surprising that he’ll be singing the title track. What’s cool is that for the song, called “Undefeated”, Vanness got Korean singer Junho from the group 2PM to collaborate with him. Junho sings in Chinese and he’s actually not bad. Hey, if the Super Junior M boys can lay down … Continue reading →
When I read novels sometimes I get so impatient I want to flip ahead and see what’s going to happen. It’s a bad habit I really need to break. But sometimes a nice spoiler really juices me up to keep going because I’m excited and curious how something is going to happen. Yun Zhong Ge is headed into a heart … Continue reading →
