It’s cuteness and surprising visual complementary looks for the first time with the two drama leads Yoon Kyun Sang and Kim Yoo Jung as they guest on the variety show Knowing Bros. They donned high school uniforms in the new kids transferring to class concept, with Kim Yoo Jung just a year out of high school herself but Yoon Kyun … Continue reading →
I think anticipation among K-drama viewers is neck-and-neck between two tvN dramas Memories of Alhambra and Boyfriend. They don’t compete with each other in time slot but the high profile lead casting is certainly generating fandom excitement. I’m personally more interested in Memories, with the cool VR/AR concept, action-hero (or anti-hero?) Hyun Bin, and hostel owner and guitar playing Park … Continue reading →
I love the IDGAF attitude of TW-actress Alyssia Chia in her second go-around at love. She’s so open and working hard at it, and looking amazing for being 44-years old and the mother of three daughters. Alyssia retired at the height of her fame after the drama adaptation of Heavenly Sword and Dragon Sabre to marry a chaebol heir with … Continue reading →

It’s pretty cute to see the leads of tvN drama Encounter (Boyfriend) dressed in coordinating style classy outfits for the press conference. Park Bo Gum donned a autumnal beige double-breasted suit and Song Hye Kyo complemented with a white suit dress with beige heels. He’s cut the long shaggy locks from earlier this summer which was also his look during … Continue reading →
It’s a beautiful and proud moment to see a young girl, in the limelight from the moment she was born due to the fame of her parents, step forward on her own accord and with such confidence. 12-year old Li Yan is most famous for being the daughter of HK superstar songstress Faye Wong and her now ex-husband C-actor Li … Continue reading →
Not following an actor or actress means massive catchup to truly get the full picture and it’s been a doozy to see how far C-actor Jiang Jing Fu fell to hit rock bottom this week with his domestic violence admission. His career was sky high out of the gate signing with hitmaker Tangren Entertainment, the agency of Hu Ge and … Continue reading →
This week concluded the airing of jTBC Mon-Tues drama The Beauty Inside, an adaptation of the movie of the same name but with a gender switch and also tweaked body morphing logic. Female lead Seo Hyun Jin changes once a month for a week and has managed to become a top actress, albeit one known for suddenly disappearing for a … Continue reading →
It’s been a comparatively quiet project year for K-actress Shin Mina but she’s gearing up for her comeback with the movie Diva. The title turns into an English pun of sorts as the movie is set in the world of Diving hence she’s a diving diva har har. It’s actually a thriller after her character suffers and accident (diving?) and … Continue reading →
The overseas shoot portion of upcoming tvN romance drama Encounter went all the way to Havana, Cuba, an exotic locale for sure even for many Westerners much less a K-drama selection. There’s old school charm mixed with a developing country urban vibe that permeates the promos for the drama, tossing everything in a beautifully color filtered lens that makes the … Continue reading →
SBS finished airing Mon-Tues drama Where Stars Land (Fox Star Bride) this week but will have a short drama Hymn of Death before the next series arrives with My Strange Hero (Bok Soo is Back) on December 10th. I’m so looking forward to My Strange Hero with its cute second chances premise and of course male lead Yoo Seung Ho … Continue reading →
This is just a terrible situation all around and really disappointing that yet another star has shown their awful personal side. C-actor Jiang Jing Fu, one of the rising stars in the last five years and pitched as the next Hu Ge, is in the news this week after his Japanese girlfriend of 4-months posted pictures on her Instagram showing … Continue reading →
Cable network tvN has been the ratings leader not just of its own paid competitors but doing even better than some prime time big three network dramas that it’s quite a surprise to suddenly see the smaller cable networks upping their game in such notable fashion. K-ent is writing about how the recent crop of cable dramas have flipped the … Continue reading →
