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 →
Gallup released poll results for favorite K-star in South Korea for 2019 and topping the list in the first spot is veteran actor Choi Bool Am who isn’t even playing daddies anymore he’s the go-to granddaddy now in dramas and movies. Right behind him is everyone’s favorite grandmother/mother and all around perfect actress Kim Hye Ja, so clearly the audiences … Continue reading →
The K-movie adaptation of hit feminist novel 1982 Born Kim Ji Young opens next week in Korea and all eyes are on whether mainstream audiences will embrace it and whether the fringe right will successfully stifle a story that highlights all the minor and micro injustices Korean women have faced culturally. The movie is 100% about Jung Yumi‘s Kim Ji … Continue reading →
Remember this bromance pose and picture above, when actors Gong Yoo and Lee Dong Wook were promoting their hit fantasy romance drama Goblin. Imma not going to lie, I loved the drama but didn’t love the OTP chemistry or story line, but loved the frenemy and bromance chemistry and story line of the male leads. The two leads have since … Continue reading →
Stories don’t need to be emotionally safe to be told, and some are going to rile folks up. Popular Korean novel 1982 Born Kim Ji Young is a best seller but reviled by certain segments of the male population for being a feminist novel whatever that means. Even when a female star posts that she’s read it or reading it … Continue reading →
Holy freaks where did the time go! I cannot CANNOT believe that Gong Yoo is now 40 years old. Like, seriously?!?? I remember when he was playing a high school student in Biscuit Teacher Star Candy, but granted he was already in his late twenties then and shouldn’t have played that character other than by sheer boyish charisma. Mr. Yoo … Continue reading →
I find it a feat of impossibility that French fashion house Louis Vuitton managed to turn K-actor Gong Yoo into a hobo, and one whose hobo-ness was accomplished by wearing a much too large suit. Gong Yoo is one of the tallest male actors in K-ent and he is literally swimming in his suit, and the second layer and too … Continue reading →
Maybe it’s because I’m pensive right now but good golly does Gong Yoo hit me like a perfect cup of morning coffee right when I need it. He’s been just coasting on CFs but has a wrapped movie in the works with Jung Yumi as Born in 1982 Kim Ji Young and also filming for sci-fi flick Seo Bok with … Continue reading →
Gong Yoo and Jung Yumi have just wrapped their third go-around working together and I’m thinking they should keep this up and own this record permanently. The two are starring in the movie adaptation of Korean novel 1982 Born Kim Ji Young (or Kim Ji Young, Born in 1982) which marks their third cinematic collaboration after The Crucible and Train … Continue reading →
Consider me surprised and impressed that a poll conducted recently landed an actor currently in military service on the top of the list. South Korean government recently polled 16 overseas country viewers interested in Hallyu on their favorites in the categories of stars, idols, dramas, and movies. Lee Min Ho was the number 1 pick in the stars category followed … Continue reading →
Dang, what a fun way to wake up with massive K-ent casting news. The Boyfriend is going to star in a movie with the Goblin, woohoo! Park Bo Gum is following up his hit drama turn in Encounter (Boyfriend) by switching gears into movie land, having just confirmed the sci-fi movie Seo Bok which earlier already landed one leading man … Continue reading →
My eyes my eyes, I’ve been temporarily blinded! How else to explain the momentary visual pang upon laying eyes on Gong Yoo at this week’s Body Shop event in Seoul. He was wearing a yellow shirt jacket that is a shade of yellow that honestly I couldn’t even find to buy if I tried. ITS SO BRIGHT AND SO YELLOW … Continue reading →
The current It thing on Facebook is the 10 Year Challenge, to post a picture of yourself today versus 10 years ago on your first post when Facebook started. Some people have aged hard, some hardly at all, but looks are merely superficial to have much everyone has emotionally and mentally aged in a decade. For the K-actors we know … Continue reading →
