Jaw drop. Okay, now this is a high falutin’ fashion shoot and not one of this sit there and smile routine pictorials that only garner interest from me because it features an actress or actress I like. Top Korean model Han Hye Jin is featured in an eye dropping Bazaar Korea photo shoot that is dramatically black against a white … Continue reading →
The first stills are out for the next MBC Wed-Thurs drama Let’s Hold Hands Tightly and Watch the Sunset, with the network having taken a good month hiatus after I am Not a Robot ended to air the Winter Olympics and also get its shit together after too much scrambled airings and rushed filming. Sunset premieres on March 14th and … Continue reading →
MBC has decided to take a sensible break from premiering new K-dramas in 2018 that dovetails nicely with the Pyeonchang 2018 Winter Olympics schedule. Mon-Tues drama Two Cops and Wed-Thurs drama I am Not a Robot both end in late January, and the Winter Olympics take place for two weeks in February when the Korean networks typically preempt dramas anyways … Continue reading →
I did a post awhile back on the school age before and after pictures of Korea’s male stars. It’s time for the ladies counterpart post and who better to top it off than the three renowned prettiest actresses in Korea. Kim Tae Hee, Jeon Ji Hyun, and Song Hyo Kyo all debuted at very young ages in the early Hallyu … Continue reading →
I don’t follow K-actress Han Hye Jin‘s career even though I’ve actually watched so many of her dramas, but I love this latest news too much not tos hare. Her breakout hit from a decade ago Be Strong Geum Soon is one of my favorite daily dramas ever, except it was less her and more due to Kang Ji Hwan. … Continue reading →
There are two things that can happen when a drama isn’t ready to air and take over a time slot. The predecessor can either be extended or a filler short drama aired as a quickie patch, or else the not-ready drama loses its time slot. For the upcoming SBS Kim Soo Hyun-penned Thrice Married Woman, it’s casting woes are now … Continue reading →
After a five-year long relationship, Yoo Ji Tae and Kim Hyo Jin have made it official and tied the knot. Woo hoot, I love it when a long haul relationship goes all the way. And judging from the happy couple’s looks of love and affection during the ceremony, these two look like they’ve got the foundation down for a successful … Continue reading →
I have a soft spot for Han Hye Jin because her big break as an actress came in the same drama where my Kang Ji Hwan had his big break as an actor – Be Strong Geun Soon, still the only daily K-drama I have ever watched, and ever intend to watch. My eyes almost wanted to sue me for … Continue reading →
Spring is here, and with it comes wedding season. If you’re married it feels anticlimactic, if you’re single it feels like an interminable slog. But weddings are always great for checking out the bride’s wedding gown, and giving it the thumbs up or down. Many Korean actresses have played brides in dramas, movies, or magazine shoots. I thought it’d be … Continue reading →
The cast of The Thorn Birds had their press conference today, and the first thought in my mind was “already?”, which made me realize that President was ending this week. Aish, I took a break a few weeks ago from President so I could concentrate and marathon it in sitting, and whoosh time just flies right on by. Luckily, I’m … Continue reading →
The upcoming KBS Wed-Thurs drama The Thorn Birds released its first batch of drama poster and stills, and boy am I underwhelmed. I can’t quite figure out what the drama is about just yet (something about a woman persevering through adversity and rising above the odds with her strong spirit), but I do know that the stylist who dressed both … Continue reading →
The 2010 Year End Drama Awards for the major Korean networks were just a scant month ago, yet somewhere it feels like a year has passed. Allure Korea did a photospread on various actresses as they primped and prepared for attending one of the three awards shows. While I didn’t like all the dresses on these ladies the night of … Continue reading →
They look really good together. That was the first thought going through my mind when I saw the first stills released by KBS for their upcoming Wed-Thurs drama The Thorn Birds (also referred to as Thorn Three Bird). Leads Han Hye Jin and Joo Sang Wook started filming three days ago, and the stills depict their first contentious meeting whereby … Continue reading →
