The 51st Grand Bell Awards went off without a hitch last night in Seoul, though apparently there was major behind-the-scenes conflict between the past and present organizers. It was also quite a dud of an affair with the wins mostly … Continue reading
The nominees are out for the 51st annual Grand Bell Awards, the Korean equivalent of the Academy Awards to honor the industry’s best and brightest films and movie stars for the calendar year. This year the only K-movie I watched from … Continue reading
MBC‘s Mon-Tues drama Triangle wrapped up today in what I like to call “shuffling off to the dustbin of dramas to be forgotten.” Truly terrible dramas like Fashion King and Dr. Jin continued to be name dropped long after it’s … Continue reading
