I’m going to say it again, seeing the latest pictures of Jang Geun Seok feels like the last ten years have been erased and he’s back to being the young actor on the cusp of stardom from a wildly promising child actor career. His fans can believe he’s done solid projects this entire time but he really hasn’t especially compared … Continue reading →
I’m sorry did a time warp happen or can we erase the last ten years and start afresh with K-actor Jang Geun Seok? He’s back from nearly two years of mandatory military service though he served in the public sector, kinda half and half with stars whether it’s a desk job or an performance gig in the army/navy/air force as … Continue reading →
For a few years in the mid 2010 era Jang Geun Seok was more active outside of Korea most notably in Japan and Southeast Asia. Before his military enlistment he did two SBS dramas with The Royal Gambler and Switch: Change the World but for his long time acting fans it didn’t seem like his first job was his priority. … Continue reading →
It’s welcome back to singer-actor Jang Geun Seok, what a nice way to head into the weekend for him. Jang Geun Seok was discharged Friday afternoon from completing his mandatory military service in the public service sector hence he’s not wearing his army fatigues. He looks healthy and I can totally see him smiling because he has an eye smile … Continue reading →
Goodness I totally lost track of this young man but it’s nice to have a surprise positive news about him. K-ent is reporting that actor-singer Jang Geun Seok will be discharged from the military at the end of the month, completing his nearly 2 years of mandatory service. Due to COVID-19 it’ll be a quiet discharge no public or fans … Continue reading →
This is the time to hopefully not get into any scandals and if scandals come then distance as much as possible. K-ent is reporting that K-actor Jang Geun Seok‘s mother has been indicted and will be prosecuted for tax evasion. The prosecutor is not asking for jail time but if convicted she’ll likely pay the owed taxes, interest and penalties, … Continue reading →
I’m not surprised at all by this news and hope he doesn’t get a lot of flack from judgy K-netizens. Actor-singer Jang Geun Seok will be enlisting for his mandatory military service in two weeks on July 16th, serving two years in public service rather than active military service in departments such as the army, navy, marines, or air force. … Continue reading →
This year has been a phenomenal start for K-actor Jang Geun Seok career wise. He was one of the celebrity faces of the Pyeongchang Winter Olympics, is currently starring in the ratings lead Wed-Thurs SBS drama Switch (Change the World), and this his alma mater Hangyang University revealed that he’s donated another 1 billion won to increase his donation total so … Continue reading →
Two new poster sets came out over the weekend and it’s from competing dramas. First to arrive is SBS Wed-Thurs drama Switch (Change the World) premiering this week on March 28th, followed nearly a month later by KBS Wed-Thurs drama Suits remaking the US show. I’m interested in both dramas but Switch has a leg up to establish traction since … Continue reading →
I’m hopeful that SBS drama Switch: Change the World will be the switch up of Jang Geun Seok‘s acting career fore the past 6 years and return him to the substantive track that he was projected earlier on in his career. With Wed-Thurs drama Return getting a two episode (1 night) extension, Switch arrives on March 28th next week to continue the … Continue reading →
Sometimes I color just pops and I’m so enamored of Jang Geun Seok‘s blue trench coat in the just released new stills from SBS Mon-Tues drama Switch (Change the World). It’s a rich and vibrant shade of blue that totally complements Jang Geun Seok’s flashy spiky haired swindler look for the drama. Conversely his by-the-books prosecutor character does for the … Continue reading →
I recently was reminded that Jang Geun Seok actually acted with IU before, in the very odd K-drama Pretty Boy (Bel Ami), which wasn’t as bad as it sounded but nevertheless goes down as a blip on the radar. I felt like that drama was the epitome and perhaps a self-aware parody of Jang Geun Seok as the ultimate K-drama … Continue reading →
Filming has started for SBS Wed-Thurs drama Switch: Change the World, which premieres at the end of March after Return. Starring Jang Geun Seok and Han Ye Ri, the drama has the male lead playing two roles, that of a top prosecutor and the swindler who impersonates him to get justice outside the law. Legal dramas have dominated the Wed-Thurs … Continue reading →
