This comes as no surprise, but it’s still a treat to finally hear confirmation: actor Jang Geun Seok will be officially debuting as a singer this year. After months of speculation about the when, wheres, and hows, news reports in Japan have confirmed that Jang Geun Seok will be releasing his first solo album on March 23, 2011, and following that … Continue reading →

I’m a glass half-full type of person. But I’m also a rubber-necking train wreck type of person. In my excitement over my latest shiny toys dramas My Princess and Dream High, I figure I should also give another premiering Mon-Tues drama a chance, if only purely out of my morbid fascination with how much this drama looks like crap. The … Continue reading →
Well….I did not see this coming, but I don’t feel all that shocked by it. Spoilers for episode 7 of Dream High after the jump, with new pictures about the show case participants that may give some of you a hissy fit. For me? I think it raises the stakes all around for the main characters, and creates more in-depth … Continue reading →
SO. ADORABLE. I spent this afternoon reading, with the world’s silliest grin on my face, a fan-fiction done by a Baidu netizen called Xiao Mao, who postulated what would happen if Kang Mu Gyul were to meet Hwang Tae Kyung and write songs for him to sing. Yup, the what-if story is pretty much as cute as the concept – … Continue reading →
Yay, the video preview for Dream High episode 7 is out! Boo, because it’s way too short, and has way too much Baek Hee for my taste. But it ends with glimpses of Sam Dong and Hye Mi doing a duet, and angtsy Jin Gook dancing a dance of pain and taking off his shirt. Can DH get any better? … Continue reading →
While going through my oppa files recently, I made a belated connection that the girl he was paired up with when he was the spokesperson for Mind Bridge, a Korean preppy clothing line, was actually Kim Hyo Jin! I was floored, because I found that model actress totally gorgeous and charming at that time. Which was NOT what I thought … Continue reading →
King of J-entertainment KimuTaku (Kimura Takuya) has settled on his 2011 J-dorama project, and it’s a doozy. Something this large in scale and scope, the 60th anniversary drama for TBS, only one man has britches big enough to carry the show. And he’s bringing 19 huskie dogs along with him! KimuTaku’s next dorama will be a TV-version of a true … Continue reading →
I do like other actors other than Moon Geun Young and Jang Geun Seok, I swear! Even though it doesn’t seem like it right now, but my My Princess recaps and soon-to-come-spazzing about Dream High should dispel any misconceptions about any inability on my part to let Mae Ri and Mu Gyul go and move on to other dramas and … Continue reading →
As promised, bringing you all a cute video for week’s end. It’s a mash-up of the Geun-Geuns from one of their earlier movies (and when I say earlier – I mean when both of them still had their baby fat). This MV comes courtesy of EJ from Stellar Fandom, who spliced together 18 year old Moon Geun Young from her … Continue reading →
Obsession – thy name is Dream High. Who knew that in the span of 24 hours and 2 episodes, namely this week’s episode 5 and 6 of DH, I would go from kinda liking this drama (as per my post last week), to full-blown-I-need-moar-of-this-crack utter and complete love for this deeper than it looks high school drama. The worst news … Continue reading →
Now this is what imma talking about, drama! Episode 6 of My Princess was back to being totally awesome, not just sometimes awesome. Along the same vein, I’ve finally crossed the line from theoretically loving the pairing of Hae Young-Seol to feeling personally vested that this couple gets together. Yes, I’ve finally put my heart into this drama, unsurprisingly right … Continue reading →
