One betrayed brother adorably announced his … Continue reading →
I’m certain this leading lady casting will ripple as many waves as the leading man casting a week ago, but if hit screenwriter Kim Eun Sook knows what she’s doing then it’ll all work out come 2018 when the drama arrives. To the total surprise of everyone since this particular rising young actress’s name could not conceivably be bandied about … Continue reading →

The drama takes over for Suspicious Couple, and will be followed in late summer by the … Continue reading →
July 5th of 2017 belongs to the K-ent shattering news that A-list same last name stars Song Joong Ki and Song Hye Kyo are getting married, garnering gasps and swoony congratulations from all corners. The same date a year ago also happens to be the wedding anniversary date of same last name stars Chen Xiao and Michelle Chen, who was … Continue reading →
It’s probably good that Lee Jun Ki picked the K-drama remake of Criminal Minds as his next drama after the high profile flop that was Moon Lovers: Scarlet Heart: Ryeo. It’s a modern day procedural and world’s away from sageuk where he’s done so many outings in period garb, not to mention all the shipping with his previous leading lady … Continue reading →
Two Korean mega stars getting married could mean the wedding of the decade in terms of star attendance and extravagance but for some reason I sense Song Joong Ki and Song Hye Kyo will have an intensely private and relatively low key wedding. The Descendants of the Sun romantic leads have parlayed the filming of a hit drama that has … Continue reading →
I guess there’s not much story to tell within the School series if it’s about the happy and well-adjusted lives of ordinary high school students in Korea. I’m sure there are such kids but within the School universe it feels like everyone who gets screen time is dealing with one of the rainbow spectrum of school yard woes. In School … Continue reading →
Thank god today is July 4th and not April 1st otherwise I would take major convincing that this isn’t a prank.

The movie … Continue reading →
And it’s a wrap for the young and successful drama cast of the MBC sageuk Ruler: Master of the Mask, with the run scheduled to end next week and the production already ahead of the usual live filming schedule were scenes are being filmed mere hours before airing.

I personally appreciate failures because everyone fails at some time and if learned properly then I get way more out of taking a wrong step than succeeding which at times may be due to good luck.

Taiwan has a love affair with Park Shin Hye greater than its general affection for Hallyu entertainment and stars.
