Looking at these pictures makes me feel nostalgic. Seeing Moon Geun Young wrapped in layers of Winter wear immediately transports me back to the magical Winter of 201o where a certain moppy-haired resourceful girl crossed paths with a languid rocker with commitment issues. It’s the dead of Summer in Seoul, but Moon Geun Young and Won Bin are already shooting … Continue reading →
Yay, next weekend is the grand finale of Drunken to Love You! Two more episodes to go before we fondly bid farewell to Xiao Ru and Jie Xiu. I am officially confirming DTLY has 18 episodes, because it’s follow up drama Office Girls (小資女孩向前衝) with Roy Qiu, Alice Ke, and James Wen has gotten a premiere date. At 18 episodes, … Continue reading →
I can’t believe I’m actually excited about this, but for some reason I think it would be a fitting ending for the couple and might wash away some of the residual bitterness that Season 2 left in my mouth. NTV has announced that it’s about to commence filming on Hotaru no Hikari, the Movie. After a brilliant drama adaptation of … Continue reading →
I need someone to distill the live-action drama adaptation of Ouran High School Host Club into a liquid form so that I can intravenously feed myself with its delicious, nutritious, sparkly brand of awesome. If you are not watching Ouran, I can merely make a moue at you and shake my head with sadness that you are missing out on … Continue reading →
This drama is off to a rollicking great start. She just wants a job. He just wants to putz around through life. Too bad her job solely consists of forcing him to stop putzing around and do something meaningful. Two episodes in and I love Protect the Boss to pieces. The characters are three-dimensional and well-constructed, the acting from the two … Continue reading →
This written preview confuses me, and not in a good way. I feel like the entire drama so far has been Myung Wol devises plan to get close to Kang Woo, Kang Woo pushes her away but is intrigued, rinse-and-repeat using a different plan. Eric tweeted on Wednesday that he just received the script for episodes 9 and 10. That … Continue reading →
What has Jung Il Woo been up to since creating yet another memorable role as the Scheduler in 49 Days? Not much actually, but we get to see his recent look via the August issue of Ceci Magazine. The concept was clearly an outdoorsy sports shoot, but his headband totally negates any ruggedness meant to be conveyed. Please cut your … Continue reading →
Despite doing two dramas in 2010, which was rare for her, Moon Geun Young hasn’t had an acting project yet in 2011. She’s went back to school for the first semester and is spending the Summer break on other activities. The first being her third fan meeting in Seoul, and the second being a series of fan meetings in August … Continue reading →
I’ve been totally excited about Protect the Boss with Ji Sung and Choi Kang Hee, but as the premiere drew closer I worried whether it would be as cute as the trailers made it seem. Episode 1 allowed me to let out a sigh of relief. It was solid, nothing to rave about, but genuinely charmed me and made me … Continue reading →
With less than one month to go before its premiere, the upcoming K-drama Poseidon held its script reading yesterday and immediately commenced filming. This means one beleaguered production is back on track, which leaves only What’s Up and The Musical still waiting for an airdate. With the original cast all gone (Eric, Kim Kang Woo, Kim Ok Bin, Yunho), the new … Continue reading →
I’m not sure if I like these latest Vogue Girl Korea photos of Yoo Seung Ho – it feels like they are trying too hard to make him channel So Ji Sub. Yoo Seung Ho is currrently filming Warrior Baek Dong Soo, which I’ve only seen two episodes of so I haven’t gotten to his super hot future assassin character’s … Continue reading →
Ouran High School Host Club, how do I love thee? I cannot even count the ways. But number 1 on my list is HER. Take a good look at her face (the cute girl surrounded by boys) and remember her name: Haruhi. I guarantee you’ll know it by the end of the 30 minutes that comprises episode 1 of this … Continue reading →
Yay, gamechanger. Boo, this took way too long to arrive. Yay, more funny is back. Boo, the drama is still so schizophrenic with the transitions. Yay, Koala picks a ship. Boo, instead of Kang Woo, Koala ships a tightly wound North Korean spy with limited acting skills but a whole lotta hidden sweetness and charm. Yay, this might be the best … Continue reading →
