The fashion do’s and don’ts remain my favorite past time for awards shows, mostly because I can’t bother to care about winners that sometimes feel arbitrary or tied to popularity. The 2018 54th Annual Baeksang Arts Awards took place Thursday night on May 3rd in Seoul and the award winners were actually quite spot on picks for the most part. … Continue reading →

I wasn’t expecting anything other than perfunctory drama posters for upcoming tvN legal thriller Lawless Lawyer so consider me happily spoiled that the first official poster is so awesome! Or more specifically, male lead Lee Jun Ki is so awesome in it, singlehandedly elevating the standard dark background everyone standing around K-drama poster for the thriller genre into something that … Continue reading →
I gotta give credit to the cast and crew of MBC drama The Great Seducer for working so hard despite the awful to watch results. I give it an A for effort (I think) and only ask that the failed elements from writing, directing and acting not participate in future dramas. Perhaps leading lady Joy is the easiest target, the … Continue reading →
I’m so numb to the K-drama PPL escalating insanity but even I was almost jolted to annoyance upon spotting a cold coffee cup in male lead Suho‘s hands in the official drama poster for MBN cable drama Rich Man, adapted from the J-dorama Rich Man, Poor Woman. When everyone in a drama eats at Subway and/or frequents the same three … Continue reading →
I realize Hana Yori Dango (Boys Before Flowers) has been in the news a lot recently, thanks to the high profile Taiwan and China collaboration remake Meteor Garden 2018 and also J-dorama adapting the sequel Hana Nochi Hare (Hanadan Next Season) which just started airing recently.

I’m a busy person in real life already but I can’t image toggling two full time day jobs the way Lee Jun Ki just did last week. In the midst of filming his upcoming K-drama Lawless Lawyer, he jetted off to Japan for a fan meeting and looked every inch the Hallyu star. I love love his comfortable and cool … Continue reading →
I felt like the first third of 2018 just flew by but for some reason the month of April is dragging. I thought we’d be in May by now but actually it’s still another day left. tvN fantasy-tinged romance About Time doesn’t arrive until May 21 but it’s doing a very concerted promo effort already even if I’m not particularly … Continue reading →
I think tvN is doing the right thing and hopefully networks adopt this as a rule forever. Currently airing hit Wed-Thurs drama My Ahjusshi (My Mister) will not air this week as the production scrambles to catch up on live filming. The drama had to re-film many early scenes when supporting actor Oh Dal Soo was abruptly stripped from the … Continue reading →
