I always enjoy watching outtakes or behind-the-scene footage, which are more commonly available for dramas. But occasionally a magazine shoot will release some, and Bazaar Korea just made available some wonderful pictures of Gong Hyo Jin and Cha Seung Won’s shoot last month. It’s clear they have a comfortable rapport built from filming a drama together, plus they have great … Continue reading →
Gong Hyo Jin and Cha Seung Won are probably the two most high-fashion couture actor/models in Korean entertainment. Long, leggy, lithe, with non-conventionally pretty but rather striking features, if fashion week in Paris needed two Korean actors, they would be the ones I’d send. September’s issue of Harper’s Bazaar Korea reunites them for the first time after their hit rom-com … Continue reading →
I really do not follow awards shows, except to check out the fashion, because frankly it’s all pointless and mostly backdoor manuveuring at the end of the day. But I like them for pure entertainment purposes (pretty people, shiny things, me likey). MNET 20 is the only Summer awards show in Korea, intended to be nothing but a popularity contest … Continue reading →
It’s here! Okay, more like it’s coming in one week, and we get a sneak peak today! The cast of Best Love held its press conference today and my see-sawing heart took another giant somersault of joy when I saw them all together. I might as well tell you all now – I am only planning to recap one drama … Continue reading →
Are the drama gods trying to kill me? Hot on the heels of the second Lie to Me trailer comes the second Best Love trailer. I suppose the two dramas NOT airing against each other is truly the only respite from two months of drama madness for me.
Continue reading →Wow. That’s my first and last impression on the ladies gracing the pages of the May edition of Cosmopolitan Korea. All the pictures are sexy, evocative, yet never trashy (unlike its US counterpart, which I only read when I have no other alternative while stuck at my nail salon). Bringing you Gong Hyo Jin (whose pictures stand in such sharp contrast … Continue reading →
News reports announced today that Yoon Kye Sang (Who Am I?) and Yoo In Na (Secret Garden) have been tapped as the second leads for the upcoming Hong Sisters drama The Discovery of Affection, which supposedly also has its name changed to Best Love. The Hong Sisters really are skewing older and more sophisticated for their latest drama, which … Continue reading →
Aw man, how did I get so lucky? Gong Hyo Jin and Cha Seung Won have confirmed their involvement with the upcoming Hong Sisters’ drama The Discovery of Affection, which is scheduled to air on Wed-Thurs on MBC starting in June. Seriously? One half of two separate sets of OTPs which comprise my top OTPs of all time getting … Continue reading →
Vogue Girl Korea‘s March issue is it’s annual pink issue, and this year it assembled another batch of starlets to model for its Pink Wings charity campaign – this year its to help young adults who are their families’ main financial support. Funds are raised through sales of participating fashion brands. I’ve collected some of my favorite of the pictures … Continue reading →
Take a deep breath, lady (talkin’ to myself here – nothing to look at), and lower your expectations. I know it’s not 100% confirmed, and the entire thing could be more meh than yeah when all is said and done, but the news that Cha Seung Won might be the new male lead for the next Hong Sisters’ drama has … Continue reading →
