The drama is called Roco King and takes the original story characters up in age and into the world of Korean entertainment. Song Ji Hyo is a … Continue reading →
So it looks like this noodle god drama really is happening, even if the storyboard sounds weird, the time slot potentially even weirder, and the production team the weirdest of all. KBS has cast upcoming Wed-Thurs Master: God of Noodles to headline Chun Jung Myung, Jo Jae Hyun, Jung Yumi and Lee Sang Yeob. But the drama is following Descendants … Continue reading →
Ha Ji Won isn’t letting a flopped drama slow her down, and why should she when the flop of The Time I Loved You (K-remake of In Time With You) was all the fault of the terrible script and excessive PPL rather than her performance or chemistry with costar Lee Jin Wook. She’s just started filming the Korean-Chinese joint production movie … Continue reading →
The upcoming tvN drama Heart to Heart is going to have huge shoes to follow coming right after the highly rated and critically well-received Misaeng airing on Fri-Sat nights. At least the drama has finished casting the main leads and it’s a mixed bag for sure. Choi Kang Hee has been signed on since the project was first announced but … Continue reading →
The month of May was chock full of K-ent dating and break up shockers but Chun Jung Myung‘s situation was a whole side dish of weirdness. PIE was spotted out on a date with a non-celebrity by Sports Seoul and his agency promptly admitted that the baby-faced actor was indeed in a newly developing relationship with a lady love that he met earlier … Continue reading →
When I said earlier than 2013 was a tsunami year of K-ent dating couples and scandals, I didn’t realize my own beloved Moon Geun Young and Kim Bum would join its ranks and start dating for real. Those two confirmed their dating rumors swiftly, but in the last few weeks a few new dating allegations have popped up as well … Continue reading →

Well well well, can we say hubba hubba to this? Chun Jung Myung (or my delicious PIE as he’s known around dramaland) has been rather low key as he films the upcoming movie Queen of the Night with Kim Min Jung, reuniting after they last starred in Fashion 70s back in 2006. They were the second leads in that drama but … Continue reading →
After turning down the second male lead in Missing You, Chun Jung Myung has stated that his next project will be a movie. His last movie Blue Salt was okay for me, but I do love it when my faves head towards Chungmuro over staying in Yeouido it always means they are scaling new heights in their acting career. This week … Continue reading →
Might as well string me up and beat me, the pain will at least be short lived, whereas Missing You will haunt me for 24-episodes equal to 12 weeks equal to 3 months. That’s a long time to suffer the pain of seeing two of my favorite actors in the same drama where they are not the OTP. Seriously? If … Continue reading →
Chun Jung Myung and Ivy Chen could quite possibly be the two cutest actors in their respective industries, so seeing them embracing pretty much exponentially explodes the adorableness factor until all I see is a puppy cuddling with a kitten. The filming continues on the C-drama The Family, which is actually directed by Korean PD Choi Yoon Seok (Glass Slippers), and … Continue reading →
At this point, the Korean actors exodus over to making dramas in other parts of Asia should be considered a biblical flood. There are so many and all over the place I can barely keep track.
