For those of you scouring the web for this week’s long preview of the upcoming episodes of Playful Kiss (Mischievous Kiss), you might want to take a break. MBC will be unlikely to release any more long previews, not because it was a stupid idea to do so in the first place, but because the filming for PK has now … Continue reading →
Latest Athena Stills: OTP Japan Snuggling and BOA
And NOT in the same frame at the same time! As if I can control myself not to plaster these latest set of stills from Athena: Goddess of War all over. The picture above and below (which is slightly NSFW so will be available after the jump) show Jung Woo Sung and his spy-ladylove Su Ae enjoying some TLC in … Continue reading →

And…..it’s official. Playful Kiss (Mischievous Kiss) is confirmed to be a 16 episode drama. I hesitate to say it is being cut, because apparently MBC never did confirm it was going to be a 20 episode drama.

Playful Kiss Episode 6 Recap
This is the first episode of Playful Kiss (Mischievous Kiss) I’ve watched since the rather slow episode 1 that didn’t leaving me giddy as a gopher dug a new hole. Don’t get me wrong, I still really liked it. But PK can do with upping the intensity and the pace more, as it remains rather languid in its execution.

Normally I hate to post stuff that isn’t top-notch, as high quality as possible for your enjoyment. But sometimes something comes along that simply needs to be shared.

This is a long recap, so hold on to your horses, people. A lot happens in this episode, but it’s not earth-tilting or mind-blowing revelations like your daddy killed my mommy, your best friend is in love with me, or I’ve got incurable prostate cancer so I must run away and can’t be with you. Playful Kiss (Mischievous Kiss) continues to … Continue reading →
