You all must watch this preview for Man of Honor episode 15. Forget everything else and just forward to the last 15 seconds. Trust me, you’ll thank me later. Seeing what In Woo’s dad has up to sleeve (instead of offing Jae In, he’ll use her existence to his advantage) might actually be the kicker this drama needs to ramp … Continue reading →
Nicky Wu and Wallace Huo just wrapped their upcoming period detective drama Xing Ming Shi Ye and the production has released an official preview and behind-the-scenes look at the drama. It’s got a dash of CSI, some bromance, and plenty of love triangle angst to go around considering I just saw Nicky crash Wallace’s character’s wedding and steal the bride … Continue reading →
What a difference a big mouth makes. Just days after rumors went fursploding about Rainie Yang and Sunny Wang heading to NYC together on the same flight, the flurry of eyewitness sightings and blabbermouths have pretty much confirmed they ARE in fact dating and went to the US together for Thanksgiving. They were spotted at Kansai airport awaiting their transit … Continue reading →
I make no excuses for raving about Material Queen when it first premiered, waxing in recap after recap about its merits both superficial (its breathtakingly gorgeous) and substantive (tightly plotted story with exhilarating character development). So when it hit a huge plot ditch in episodes 10-11, I took a break from recapping it hoping it would regain its footing and … Continue reading →
Kang Ji Hwan has been busy filming the upcoming movie Detective Cha with Sung Yuri, but this week he took time off to fly to Japan for his long-schedule fan meetings. He’s been laying low since finishing Lie to Me in early July, so I’m always happy to see new pictures of him. For his fan meeting, Ji Hwan prepared … Continue reading →
Episode 15 of Office Girls started off with a big hammer. The big hammer of cuuuuuute, which proceeded to bonk me over the head repeatedly until I was dizzy and disoriented. The entire episode was wonderful, light and sweet without being cloying or pointless, but the first scene between Zi Qi and Xing Ren set the stage perfectly for what’s … Continue reading →
The upcoming K-movie Wonderful Radio (also called Love On Air) has a confirmed February 2012 release date, and with it comes the first trailer for the cute rom-com starring Lee Min Jung and Lee Jung Jin. Watching the trailer, the movie looks like it could be sweet and entertaining, but I’m not quite feeling the hook yet. I saw a … Continue reading →
Taiwan’s most prestigious awards show came and went, and thankfully the results caused no sputtering outrage and mud flinging the way the Golden Bells did last month. Last night’s Golden Horse Awards was a rather muted affair, with some viewers not terribly impressed with the star quality of the nominees and attendees compared to other years. The biggest nomination winner … Continue reading →
Ooooooh, pwetty! I love fabulous furniture, and when paired with gorgeous actors, that’s just icing on top of the cake. For the December issue of InStyle Korea magazine, six K-actors have collaborated with furniture designers to produce a design piece that reflects their personality and style. The pieces will be auctioned and all proceeds will go to their designated charity. In … Continue reading →
Four of Taiwan’s leading actors are getting together for an upcoming 2012 blockbuster period TW-movie. Jerry Yan and Joe Cheng will pair up with Ivy Chen and Michelle Chen for the rare star-studded lavish Hua Yang, a movie set in the waning days of the Ming Dynasty. Ivy and Michelle will play a pair of theatrical performing sisters, and Joe … Continue reading →
Thank god Ramna 1/2 isn’t one of those iconic mangas where legions of diehard fans will have a hernia and an aneurysm if it was butchered in any way, shape, or form. The first teasers for the upcoming Ranma 1/2 live-action SP have been released, and I pretty much dialed my expectations from a zero down to whatever it is … Continue reading →
This news will make some ArJoe fans rejoice. Much as I think Ariel Lin is never going to end up in real life with another actor (she’s never dated any of her co-stars or anyone in the entertainment industry since she debuted), she has such explosive and brilliant chemistry with ALL her male co-stars there are legions of Ariel fans … Continue reading →
I never knew I would ever desire a broccoli bouquet. Or a dollhouse. Or find a guy who dressed up in a dinosaur costume really hot. Office Girls really does mess with my mind, but all in a good way. I’m thankful for how this drama has so far remained steady in plot development, sane in character development, and squeeworthy … Continue reading →
