This is an unexpected mid-summer surprise dating news! K-ent is reporting that actor Lee Jong Seok, who is currently enlisted in the military doing public service duty due to a prior physical injury, is dating idol-turned-actress Kwon Nara. I had to Google her and found out that she was formerly a member of sexy idol girl group Hello Venus and … Continue reading →

Two bigwigs are working together soon, with box office champ Hwang Jung Min already confirmed talks are ongoing with Hyun Bin to make this pairing happen. The movie in question is a political thriller called Bargaining, not to be confused with Binnie’s last movie The Negotiation despite the similar titles. He was the antagonist in The Negotiation but in Bargaining … Continue reading →
The shit is creepy as hell, totally pun intended. The posters and first stills are out for upcoming tvN drama Strangers From Hell (Hell is Other People) adapted from a popular and creepily drawn webtoon of the same name. It’s idol-turned-actor Im Shi Wan‘s first drama post military discharge and joining him is Lee Dong Wook, Lee Jung Eun, Lee … Continue reading →
Holy two leading actresses of the same generation for the price of one, one critically acclaimed screenwriter that it. Probably only Noh Hee Kyung can lure both Han Ji Min and Shin Mina to join her drama and it’s going to be a toss up which lady I want to have a love line with the two male leads Jo … Continue reading →
Nam Joo Hyuk is back on my total love list thanks to The Light in Your Eyes (Dazzling). It wasn’t even his drama to carry, that was for Kim Hye Ja and Han Ji Min in a brilliant tandem, but Nam Joo Hyuk needed to hold his own opposite them and he did that confidently. I’m even more thrilled that … Continue reading →
The first poster and teaser preview is out for Netflix produced K-drama Love Alarm. It’s on the smaller budget and scope scale compared to other recent Netflix like zombie Kingdom or early history Arthdal Chronicles but this one has the right audience in online youngsters looking for a cute few hours to pass the time.

Lee Tae San‘s Yeon Woo is too cute to just be her platonic sidekick, plus the way she was so worried about him and so happy to see him after being separated in the robbery spoke volumes.

I think the idea is cute and the star ready for this type of new adventure, it’s just a tad worrying because K-netizens tend to have their claws out for her. Kim Yoo Jung is/will be headed to Italy for an upcoming reality show for the cable network Lifetime. It’s called Kim Yoo Jung’s Half Holiday in Italy and will … Continue reading →
The idea of a K-drama set around subway cops does sound rather dull, or more accurately not very compelling with the crime elements. I’m only interested in upcoming tvN drama Catch the Ghost for lead Moon Geun Young despite the premise but then I watched the just released teaser and found it way cooler than expected. Moon Geun Young’s narration … Continue reading →
Expectation is often the enemy of satisfaction, when we think too highly of something before sampling it then it tends to seem less than stellar simply because it could not match up to our hopes. I had zero expectation of tvN drama Hotel Del Luna especially after how much the Hong Sisters burned me with their last fantasy drama Hwayugi … Continue reading →
