Signed onto the cast is Gong Yoo, Park Bo Gum, Choi Woo Shik, Suzy, Jung Yumi, and toss in top Chinese … Continue reading →
If you would have told me when he debuted that K-actor Choi Woo Shik would be a movie picking genius and now on the cusp of breaking into Hollywood I would have laughed. And yet here we are as the Parasite cast member is entertaining an offer to do a US film called Past Lives. It’s smart to get an … Continue reading →
Every time I scroll down this post I shake my head, each and every new picture I can’t help but shake my head. This is the weirdest collection of so-called couture outfits all courtesy of Louis Vuitton as the brand held an event in Seoul last week. There were so many A-listers and famous faces in attendance I cannot believe … Continue reading →
K-actor Choi Woo Shik started out as a drama supporting role and it’s pretty incredible how he’s now got a major movie career that is way more successful than what he’s done on the small screen. He picks films that are hits and if I were a bettor I’d piggyback on his choices – his first film role was in … Continue reading →
This looks like the perfect movie for long flights, the kind of mindless and hopefully fun entertainment to help pass two hours quickly. Next week is the premiere of K-movie Monstrum with Kim Myung Min as a Joseon government official and warrior sent to slay an aquatic and land monster terrorizing the commoners and causing unrest for the nobles and … Continue reading →

This is a downgrade for me and I can’t believe I’m saying this because the original contender for the role isn’t my idea of a great thespian to begin with. First off with the good news, Jo Jung Seok has confirmed as the leading man for upcoming MBC drama Two Cops. Not so good news is that earlier in discussion … Continue reading →
A teaming horde of zombies descended on Seoul this weekend as the highly anticpated summer popcorn flick Train to Busan premiered. Starring Gong Yoo as a workaholic dad taking his daughter to Busan, the movie follows his story along with married and expecting couple Ma Dong Seok and Jung Yumi as well as So Hee and Choi Woo Shik as … Continue reading →
I wasn’t terribly interested in last month’s film casting news that Lee Seung Gi and Shim Eun Kyung were going to headline a movie together, but the latest additions to the casting have me sitting up and 100% invested. Filming has started for upcoming sageuk romance Marital Harmony (Compatibility) and the synopsis is basically Shim Eun Kyung in a historical reverse … Continue reading →
The first preview for the upcoming bickering prosecutors MBC drama Pride and Prejudice arrives for me like a cat sniffing nip. My interest is piqued and my appetite whetted. Starring Choi Jin Hyuk and Baek Jin Hee, both actors I like but don’t quite love, the drama feels rather low profile probably because neither have large fan bases or generate hot … Continue reading →
