The festivities have moved from Hawaii back to Taiwan for the final stop in TW-actress Ady An‘s wedding extravaganza of the year. Celebrity weddings can be lavish and over-the-top and Ady’s definitely is up there in terms of how much money she and her billionaire hubby must have spent to pay for everything, including all expenses for the Hawaii wedding … Continue reading →
It’s good that Suspicious Partner is a longer 20-episode prime time drama, or 40 episode now that the network has decided to call thirty minutes an episode to add in more commercial time. That means SP won’t end until the middle of July but then again we’re already in the back end of June and casting is finally completed for … Continue reading →
I’m really curious about how newlywed stars Gu Hye Sun and Ahn Jae Hyun will come across in the hands of variety maestro Na PD. He’s capable of turning the most mundane situations into ones of quiet interest, making three meals a day in a remote location, so now he seems to be combining various past elements together for the … Continue reading →
I like the real life K-ent acting couple of Gu Hye Sun and Ahn Jae Hyun, and if neither are that great at acting then I’m all for them finding success in other ways such as directing or doing variety. With that said, I almost am rooting for their forever after happy after getting married earlier this year that I … Continue reading →
Pairing popularity celebrities with philanthropic or social causes is always a smart move, but a triple applause for combining that combo with adorable babies. Cosmopolitan Korea released a new black-and-white but oh so adorable pictorial of Korean stars cradling chubby babies in support of Letters From Angels, a Korean adoption campaign. Previous years have seen the same holidays season pictorials … Continue reading →
K-actor Ahn Jae Hyun actually came out of the hot mess Cinderella and Four Knights better off than going in, standing out in a decent performance playing a more memorable character than the male lead. That, coupled with his well-received marriage with Gu Hye Sun, seems to be washing away the stain of epically bad Blood. He’s trying to make … Continue reading →
Ooooh, me likey this very much, it’s very modern Blues Brothers with a twist, maybe the Asian Blue Steel Brothers or something like that. Model-actor Ahn Jae Hyun is giving a masterclass in fashion posing alongside dongsaeng and breakout young actor Ji Soo, who is doing his darndest to project angst. What’s adorably hilarious about this pictorial is how off … Continue reading →
The minor K-drama awards circuit churns on with the arrival of the 2016 Korea Drama Awards, held in connection with the Korea Drama Festival. Kim Soo Hyun finally passed the Daesang baton on, after winning last year for Producers and the year prior for You From Another Star. The winner this year was Kim So Yeon for MBC weekend drama … Continue reading →
If Uncontrollably Fond harkens back to the early Hallyu style of melodrama, then tvN‘s Cinderella and Four Knights reminds of the mid-Hallyu male harem romance dramas such as Boys Before Flowers, You’re Beautiful, which even branched out to sageuks like Sungkyunkwan Scandal. I totally dig, it’s been awhile since there was a legit set up like this, though the drama … Continue reading →
The marriage of newlywed Korean star couple Ahn Jae Hyun and Gu Hye Sun is off to a romantic visually matching start after tying the knot last month in mid-May. Netizens spotted the couple honeymooning in Japan recently and snapped pictures showing the married stars casually walking down the street in warm embrace, with Gu Hye Sun wrapping her arm … Continue reading →
I’m finding the low key casual vibe of the cast and filming of Cinderella and Four Knights exceedingly pleasant, like a warm casual breeze on a summery day. Everything about this drama so far is so under the radar and I love it that way, let it surprise me and audiences if it turns out to be awesomely addicting in … Continue reading →
This is one pre-produced K-drama that is filming so far off the radar it definitely benefits from the periodic news update. Manhwa to drama adapted Cinderella and Four Knights has been scooped up by cable network tvN, which at this point remains a serious contender to join the Big Three networks for good and make it the Big Four officially. I’m … Continue reading →
This feels like the media followed whirlwind romance and wedding of Gu Hye Sun and Ahn Jae Hyun. The couple met on the set of KBS drama Blood last year and dated quietly afterwards, only going public in recent months thanks to some Dispatch snooping pictures. Those pics may turn out to be the biggest blessing for the pair, with … Continue reading →
