As if I needed more reason to love amazing actress Son Ye Jin, she continues to just be herself which is an amazing person inside and out. She welcomed her first child a baby with husband Hyun Bin earlier this month and this week posted the first sneak peek at their newborn. It’s just a feet pic but adorable nonetheless, … Continue reading →
Hahaha, I feel so shallow that my only interest in this movie is to witness firsthand how insanely how and scruffy Hyun Bin looks. It’s his first scruffy looking role since over a decade ago in The Snow Queen but that was tortured soul emo scruffy and for The Point Men he’s reluctant action hero scruffy. The movie fictionizes the … Continue reading →
Well this movie isn’t going to offend anyone, unless one is a member of a small terrorist group in Afghanistan in 2007 that kidnapped over two dozen South Korean missionaries and held them hostage. The first movie posters are out for The Point Men (Korean title Bargaining) starring Hwang Jung Min as a diplomat and Hyun Bin as a South … Continue reading →
I can taste the salty tears and hear the little Karen-shrieks of outrage from the far right faction of Japan but in this case it’s shooting itself in the own foot. I also need to say that China and South Korea do the exact same thing when their thin patriotic skins are offended so it’s a three Spiderman showdown between … Continue reading →
It’s Thanksgiving weekend here in the US but around the world it’s just the end of the month before the world starts to count down towards the end of the year once December starts. Married couple Son Ye Jin and Hyun Bin were expecting their first child in early December but news broke this weekend that the baby came early … Continue reading →

It’s down to the final stretch for married A-listers Hyun Bin and Son Ye Jin, who tied the knot in March of 2022 followed by a honeymoon baby with arrival … Continue reading →
It’s like these two just know how to showcase the right amount of public affection to share with their fans knowing they are public figures but also not too saccharine in gestures. This weekend K-actress Son Ye Jin posted a ticket stub for the movie Confidential Assignment 2: International, which stars her actor husband Hyun Bin. It was for two … Continue reading →
Aside from the cheesy low budget early posters for Confidential Assignment 2: International, I figured this movie would appeal to the general public and be a moneymaker and good buzz for all involved. Then the last two weeks the cast and crew went all out on the promo circuit, I counted at least four different press conferences and events and … Continue reading →
So the order of the GIFs and pictures are in the ranking of how frequently K-netizens discuss wanting these two to work together. I can’t disagree with most dream pairings especially when the perfectly curated GIF delivers all the feels in mere seconds of a stitched together scene. To date, the most common wish is for Hyun Bin and Jeon … Continue reading →
Haha, maybe the graphic designer on the movie Confidential Assignment 2: International Cooperation heard all the complaints about how low budget and dumb the official movie posters were. So for the individual movie character posters at least each character looks less stiff albeit three dudes are literally doing the exact same pose. It’s the gun drawn one of course, with … Continue reading →
I mean, this movie is high profile, no? A sequel to a box office hit original and starring three movie star male leads and another movie star lead as the baddie and toss in an idol-actress for eye candy, it’s basically a box office guarantee. This is the kind of movie audiences will flock to because it signals action entertainment … Continue reading →
The joke about action movies is that when the first is a hit then the inevitable sequel will take the exact same ingredients and just make it faster, louder, and general more in every way. That’s exactly what’s happening with upcoming K-movie Confidential Assignment 2, the sequel to the 2017 flick and this time two male leads in Hyun Bin … Continue reading →
