I’m just hoping that Jae In’s discovery of the whole truth and nothing but the truth about what In Woo’s dad did (and is still trying to do) will rocket Man of Honor into overdrive. Or maybe just not get more stupid and boring, because I don’t have time right now to follow a drama that can’t even be entertaining … Continue reading →
If I didn’t know anything about this drama, just by looking at the pictures I would have guessed Lee Shi Young was playing a cross-dressing bodyguard who needs to pretend to be a boy in order to be employed. But Wild Romance doesn’t have that conceit (at least based on everything I’ve read), so why does her character need to … Continue reading →
Even though I’m furious at MBC for ending Me Too, Flower! early by one episode, I can’t boycott the stupid channel because M2F’s follow up drama is the first out of the gate in terms of being my most anticipated 2012 offering. The Moon that Embraces the Sun started filming a few weeks ago for the children’s portion of the … Continue reading →
As the spokespersons for non-profit World Vision Taiwan, Sonia Sui and Joe Cheng took a week-long trip to Cambodia recently for the Sponsor a Child program that they have been involved with for many years now. Both of them were gratified to have a chance to visit with the children they sponsor and spend time learning about the beautiful culture … Continue reading →
Unless you know your source material, this poster for the upcoming Taiwanese drama Skip Beat isn’t going to make any sense with respect to Ivy Chen wearing a eye-hurting bright pink jumpsuit and carrying a chicken costume head in her hand while making an “L” gesture with her other hand. But if you’ve read the manga, she’s exactly as I … Continue reading →
Ariel Lin and Bolin Chen stumbled their way to an expected and well-earned happy ending in today’s final episode of In Time With You. It was no surprise they will end up together, but viewers cared about the how, wanting their journey to feel complete. The production released these final batch of official stills for the fans to savor and … Continue reading →
I spent last night with some adorable squealing friends who decided every third word would be Song Joong Ki. So guess who I woke up and thought of first thing in the morning. I blame you three! You know who you are, dongsaengs. Of course waking up with Song Joong Ki on my mind means I need to post about … Continue reading →
Ariel Lin took time out of her busy schedule to take a walk down memory lane, surprising the 2000 current students at her alma mater high school with a surprise appearance at the school’s annual celebration festival. Ariel’s teachers revealed that she’s never forgotten to call from time to time to keep in touch regardless of how busy and famous … Continue reading →
Wonderful Radio with Lee Min Jung and Lee Jung Jin released it’s full length movie trailer this week. I still find it underwhelming solely based on the trailer, even if the cast seems like it’s having fun and creating great chemistry. While this is not Lee Min Jung’s fault, but her character comes as as annoyingly screechy from the trailer … Continue reading →
Apple Daily released its list of the top ten money-making Taiwanese entertainers in 2011, five from each gender. The results are interesting purely from a curiosity perspective, since how much I like an actress or actor has no correlation to how much money they bring in. Nicky Wu leads the pack amongst all the male Taiwanese actors, with all his … Continue reading →
Get this. Vic Zhou’s upcoming movie Perfect Two with Ella will be going almost head-to-head with Mark Chao’s Black & White: Dawn of the First Assault. Is there some sort of karma god in this world that loves to mind frak everyone, because this can’t be a coincidence (not sure which side plotted it). B&W premieres one week before Perfect … Continue reading →
I’m still loving Office Girls, a drama that meets my expectation every week for an hour’s worth of chuckles and smiles. What’s not to love about that? Though I do worry that I’m inching closer and closer to shipping Alice and Roy as a RL couple and that would not be good because I’ll like be disappointed as usual. But … Continue reading →
Jang Geun Seok has fallen into a niche of playing artistic types in project after project, even if the profession ranges from musician to dancer and now to painter. I can’t believe I’m saying this, but I sorta miss emo-Prince Chang Hwe and his ilk, the poker-faced emotionally-damaged type. For the upcoming Love Rain (which I always associate with some … Continue reading →
