This news makes me so giddy with glee I can’t even.

There’s no premiere date locked down yet but it’s a wrap already for Chinese-Korean joint produced movie The Bad Guy Must Die. The title is just awful any way I look at it, but it’s particularly weird considering this is a movie best described as a mash up of roadtripping bromance, romance, and suspense. Early interest in the movie stems … Continue reading →

Two people posing for a photo portrait.

This is as left field a K-ent dating rumor as it gets, but whether fans ever envisioned two stars getting together before doesn’t make a dating possibility any more or less likely.

One of the positives in this age of social media connection is the chance to see the personal side of favorite stars from their own hands. The stars upload pictures and status updates as they see fit, sometimes to disastrous results, but mostly harmless on dits that provide fans a constant stream of details.

Young cast waving at photo call

I’m so psyched for upcoming SBS drama High Society it’s not even funny.
