The mania stemming from Gu Jun Pyo in Boys Before Flowers feels so long ago, and it actually was as the drama aired way back when in 2009. Seven years is a long time to ride on iconic popular performance and to give Lee Min Ho credit he’s done many dramas and movies since to keep his popularity high. I’ve … Continue reading →
There are a handful of famous name screenwriters, and two are coming out with high profile K-dramas in winter of 2016 in Kim Eun Sook‘s Goblin on tvN and Park Ji Eun‘s Legend of the Blue Sea airing on SBS. I quite enjoy both but its Park Hye Ryun who I have a deeper connection with thanks to Pinocchio and … Continue reading →
Which of these four upcoming jTBC onscreen couplings are you looking forward to this most? For me it’s the Park-Park couple, as in Park Bo Young and Park Hyung Shik in Strong Woman Do Bong Soon airing in January 2017. Elle Korea has photographed these two cuties along with three other sets of jTBC drama leads in the upcoming November issue. … Continue reading →
Lee Jun Ki has been a huge jokester on the set of Korean Bu Bu Jing Xin, taking levity when the drama has been mostly intense and bloody. The most recent picture from his SNS shows his Moon Lovers: Scarlet Heart: Ryeo 4th Prince character looming with a smile over the bodies of his poor deceased younger brother and sister-in-law. … Continue reading →
In what has turned into the most widely covered professional bowling trials in South Korean history, popular Korean star Kim Soo Hyun and Lee Hong Ki donned their bluest bowling shirts and hit the lanes this weekend before a packed media. KIm Soo Hyun and Lee Hong Ki are trying out to become professional bowlers, and their standing after the … Continue reading →
Taiwanese singer-actress Amber An is prepping for her comeback music album, the fourth of her career which has really taken a big leap forward in the last two years. Her last three dramas You Are the Apple of My Eye, To the Dearest Intruder, and A Good Day all garnered good reviews and elevated her presence as leading lady with … Continue reading →
One of the hurdles to get over in in Park Hae Jin‘s last drama Cheese in the Trap was his decade older suitability to play a college student character. Yes, he did essay the feel and visuals of male lead Yoo Jung, but honestly he would have been Yoo Jung ten years out of college than being smack in it. … Continue reading →
Dusty remote out skirts of Los Angeles roadside motels don’t exactly conjure up the requisite postcard settings for a photo shoot, but then again Heirs managed to send leads Park Shin Hye and Lee Min Ho to one and make it an early bonding moment for the drama. Sending Park Shin Hye’s latest costar Kim Rae Won there after wrapping … Continue reading →
The reunification of my cuties Park Shin Hye and Lee Jong Seok feels like a glass half something situation. On one hand they are going to be in the same drama and also back on television, but on the other hand they are merely making a cameo in said drama and not even in the same scene. Yay to the … Continue reading →
I gotta give polling site Moolmong credit for even coming up with this particular poll topic, but then again it’s probably run out of more mainstream subjects to inquire about. Korean ladies were polled on which K-star elicited their most motherly instincts, which seems anathema that viewers would want to mother the hotties in question rather than dream of them … Continue reading →
Casting Jeon Ji Hyun as the spoiled top star in You From Another Star turned out to be a match made in casting heaven, and even seemed that way from the outset when it was announced. Her turn as the centuries old last mermaid on earth in upcoming SBS drama Legend of the Blue Sea is way more of a … Continue reading →
The supreme cuteness that is sageuk drama Moonlight Drawn by Clouds reversed the ratings bottom trend for KBS on Mon-Tues and delivered a much needed buzz for the viewing audience. I like dramas to get viewers hooked and excited, the more the merrier for the industry that’s seen overall ratings pie shrinkage in successive years. The leads of Moonlight held … Continue reading →
It’s goodbye adorable young love sageuk Moonlight Drawn by Clouds, which ended this week, and hello cohabitation rom-com The Man Living in Our House, which takes over the Mon-Tues time slot on KBS. Starring Su Ae as a bumpy in love flight attendant returning to her deceased mom’s house, Kim Young Kwang is her leading man as the young guy … Continue reading →
