Movie releases are still not back to the pre-pandemic levels or hype otherwise summer is always a weekly check of what big new movie is coming out. South Korea has really cemented the genre of the disaster comedy which sounds like mutually exclusive but if the disaster part has no deaths and just a lot of running around then the … Continue reading →
When you see celebrities frozen it time it seems weird, but much more cool to see them age but still look oh sooo enviably handsome/beautiful. It comes with the territory of being an actor or actress and this week I had another WTH moment when I saw tributes to K-actor and model Cha Seung Won who celebrated his 51st birthday … Continue reading →
There has been a change in the title of upcoming mystery thriller drama from That Night to One Ordinary Day. Not sure why the change but it does from dark and foreboding to merely intriguing. The drama stars Kim Soo Hyun and Cha Seung Won adapted from the BBC series Criminal Justice and will air exclusively on Coupang Play streaming … Continue reading →
Looks like Here is out and Our Blues is in. Award winning screenwriter Noh Hee Kyung was prepping a new drama announced last year called Here based on people working overseas in NGOs but the production and filming continued to get pushed back due to travel restrictions during the pandemic. Vincenzo got around that by making the Italy scenes very … Continue reading →
So one hand declines one other and the other hand signs on to another, thanks for not letting me wait for news Kim Soo Hyun-sshi! The top actor recently passed on Netflix drama Finger but is sticking with the thriller genre and has accepted his next project, the K-drama That Night. Joining him in the dual male lead role is … Continue reading →
I’ve watched K-dramas for so many years I’m almost inured to how insanely good looking the actors are and many who have equal talent to boot as well. Recently two dramas had me doing double takes and marveling at how those actors really filled up the screen with their height in ways that captivated my attention more than before. I’ve … Continue reading →
OMG I love this fashion spread so so much! K-actors Cha Seung Won and Yoo Hae Jin have done multiple seasons of variety show Three Meals a Day: Fishing Village and is currently winning viewers and hearts on this most recent season. Ladies magazine Marie Claire Korea creatively paired the two together for the cover and pages of its July … Continue reading →
Everyone is cooking so much more and many sheltering at home so we’re all in essence living Three Meals a Day, heh. Of course very few are doing so in the backdrop of Fishing Village as the 5th season of the popular variety show premiered this Friday with the reunion of original cast Cha Seung Won, Son Ho Jun, and … Continue reading →
Woo hoo, a great new variety show season to look forward to and an even better first guest star. K-actress Gong Hyo Jin will be the first guest on the upcoming new season 4 of Three Meals a Day: Fishing Village. The original three leads are back to cook and fish including Cha Seung Won, Yoo Hae Jin, and Son … Continue reading →
I’ll take it if the type of negative news from K-ent is merely a collective grenade of ugly fashion exploding in Seoul. It beats the real stomach churning stories in recent weeks and the entertaining part from fashion fails is how collective it happens with K-stars. At the Gucci event this past weekend, Cha Seung Won led a contingent of … Continue reading →
SBS action thriller drama Vagabond has a big budget, big name stars, and now even bigger name cameos. The drama is already generating positive buzz after a nicely edited teaser trailer showcasing a lot of Lee Seung Gi running around and glimpses of Suzy trying her best to act like a government agent. Now it has the added bonus buzz … Continue reading →
I think every actor and actress involved with the tvN fantasy drama Hwayugi (A Korean Odyssey) deserves to take a long and leisurely break. It was clearly a laborious affair plagued by early production woes and ended with a terribly written drama shot on a bargain budget. It’s a bummer that the second time Cha Seung Won got to work … Continue reading →
The Gucci event in Seoul this week brought out the gamut of fashion dressing that happens even within one couture brand. Gucci has always been fashionably loud and not in a good way though I appreciate the consistent vision of the brand. I’m not sure if the brand is changing it’s name from Gucci to Guccy as per new logo … Continue reading →
