Woman stars Jo Yeo Jung who is having a phenomenal year as part of the ensemble cast for award winning and box office topping movie Parasite. She goes … Continue reading →
Man, I was a mess of tears this weekend watching both episodes 13 and 14 of Hotel Del Luna. It’s all Chung Myung related because I just feel sooooooo awful for Lee Do Hyun’s character and his 1300 years of flitting around that tree as a firefly keeping watch over IU’s Man Wol. And if she had just called his … Continue reading →
Summer is nearly over and we all need a cool down, what better than the upcoming tvN drama Melt Me Softly (Melt Me) to deliver a dose of hot and cold. The drama won’t arrive until the end of September unfortunately, the Sat-Sun time slot will be vacated this weekend with the finale of Hotel Del Luna but the next … Continue reading →
It’s been 16 years since Kim Rae Won and Gong Hyo Jin were together onscreen and the years have been kind to them. Both are still at the top of their careers while their long ago project the K-drama Snowman can’t be rewatched now since the other leading man was Jo Jae Hyun who got his comeuppance with the reveal … Continue reading →
Dramas span a gamut of genres and each story requires its own suitable actor and actress to fill out the roles. That’s why I hope the continued exodus of talented veteran K-drama leads whether male or female still leaves a solid group to continue working in the industry. I worry about the day where I truly don’t see any familiar … Continue reading →
Sorry I haven’t written about Hotel Del Luna in depth for the last three weeks, I’ve been traveling and the drama did feel more like a case of the week type story in recent episodes. At least until this weekend’s episodes 13-14, which form the set up episodes leading into next weekend’s big finale and goodness I am so pumped … Continue reading →
Okay, this is all over the news so take it with a grain of salt. Park Bo Gum shot up the search engines on Sunday in South Korea after an anonymous post claiming of a person claiming to be the friend of a nurse at a hospital wrote that a star went in recently seeking treatment for an anal tear. … Continue reading →
It’s been over a year since K-actress Suzy was cosplaying a government agent running, shooting, and escaping in upcoming SBS drama Vagabond. I hope she’s ready to dive into promoting the drama airing next month because she’s go glammed up recently in all her CF and endorsement events the visuals are even more incongruous to sell her as a rough … Continue reading →
Summer of 2019 is ending and will bring with it the return of tvN drama Arthdal Chronicles, which kicked of the summer when it first premiered at the beginning of June. The first two seasons didn’t reach the ratings height expected of such a big name and big budget production but narratively the drama did keep getting better as it … Continue reading →
This is an unique pictorial and one that chooses to focus on the timeless good looks of K-actor Kim Jae Wook by painting him with a patina. The latest Esquire Korea spread with Kim Jae Wook is full retro from his outfits, those wide legged trousers still remind me of the mid-2000 K-drama days lol, but he’s able to pull … Continue reading →
The fallout is fast on this divorce drama between Gu Hye Sun and Ahn Jae Hyun, unlike the other even more high profile K-ent divorce earlier this summer with Song Joong Ki and Song Hye Kyo. Silence is golden because life is long and months and years after the emotions of the failed marriage and/or contentious divorce is over there … Continue reading →
I know Kang Ha Neul went to the military for two years and just got back but he totally threw me for a loop in the first teasers for the upcoming drama When the Camellia Blooms by looking just like his dorky character in the coming-of-age movie Twenty. In the first teaser, he runs and runs and arrives at Gong … Continue reading →
It’s been a short and long 13-weeks watching live to TW-drama Before We Get Married (We Cannot Be Friends) which ended this Friday just as my summer is coming to a close. I want to thank this fantastic drama and leads Jasper Liu and Puff Guo for bringing me back to crack TW-drama land and also elevating everything I’ve liked … Continue reading →
