When Kim Tae Ri debuted through the critically acclaimed erotic thriller movie The Handmaiden in 2016 she was absolutely the ingenue. She still looks like one with her tiny strong physique but she’s evolved from that to being an onscreen Princess in her presence and now she’s a full blown Queen in how she commands the lens. Everyone I talk … Continue reading →
The actor and actress agency move is basically a lesser version of the off-season sign and trade racket of the NBA, of which is always so juicy it sizzles up the doldrums of summer to follow along. For K-stars, the agency swaps happen all year round usually when their contract is about to expire, and fans always think its the … Continue reading →
I vaguely remember hearing this dating news years ago but back then neither were as well known stars are they are today. It’s still sad thought to report that actor Park Sung Hoon and actress Ryu Hyun Kyung have broken up after 6 years of dating. They met on the stage production of Almost Main and started dating afterwards. Reports … Continue reading →
This is totally night and day for Namgoong Min, to borrow the Korean title of Namgoong Min’s sci-fi tinged thriller drama Awaken which had the title Day and Night. He looked so serious and dare I say it a bit morose looking in his early filming stills for his last dram The Veil (Black Sun), and who can blame him … Continue reading →
Okay, can Chinese streaming sites stop sudden scheduling dramas like Beyonce drops new albums, it’s unnecessary and weird. This Thursday August 4th is Qixi Festival, the 7th day of the 7th month in the lunar calendar, and is also known as Chinese Valentine’s Day. A bunch of dramas posted new posters or stills or fan vids to whet fan appetites … Continue reading →
There’s always the next generation coming along and another batch of Korean child and teen acting talent has aged into their own leading roles in recent years from Kim Yoo Jung to Kim So Hyun. It’s never a bad thing for the latest young talent to have an eerie resemblance to already famous faces and two child model-actress currently enchanting … Continue reading →
Hhhhmmmm, I wonder if reshoots are going on and changes are being made to the final arc of Alchemy of Souls. If I take tvN at its word then this is nothing more than just good production values at play as the network announced that the drama will not air next weekend on August 13-14 in order for the production … Continue reading →
I mean, this movie is high profile, no? A sequel to a box office hit original and starring three movie star male leads and another movie star lead as the baddie and toss in an idol-actress for eye candy, it’s basically a box office guarantee. This is the kind of movie audiences will flock to because it signals action entertainment … Continue reading →
If this turns into another Kairos I’m good with it, objectively that was one of the best dramas in 2021 albeit super low rated and the same PD is behind Adamas and so far it’s not a promising start. The thriller investigative drama premiered last week but most of South Korea is in an Extraordinary Attorney Woo collective euphoria so … Continue reading →
I’m glad to read this news because at least the production has made a decision. Netflix produced drama Bloodhounds (Hunting Dogs) has decided to bring new cast member Jung Da Eun onboard and she will be playing a newly written role. The drama will write original second female lead Kim Sae Ron basically dead and Jung Da Eun will take … Continue reading →
C-drama A Dream of Splendor was a HUGE hit when it aired a few months ago but the buzz really died down once it finished, perhaps signaling that the drama doesn’t have long legs. Doesn’t matter much as it delivered the viewership during its run and cemented Crystal Liu in her A-list status and Chen Xiao for still picking great … Continue reading →
I wish this drama didn’t call itself Little Women but then again quite a few Korean dramas have used famous Western work titles and it didn’t create confusion, thinking of Pinocchio and While You Were Sleeping among others. Perhaps this is using that classic novel set up of four sisters as an inspiration, but this time its just three sisters … Continue reading →
Awwwwww, it’s like two dads just marveling at how well and grow up their little boy is now lololol!
