Seeing as how Jang Geun Seok’s upcoming acting projects don’t exactly jibe with my preference, I guess I’ll just have to be satisfied with his CFs and endorsements to get my fix. He’s been the spokesperson for Codes Combine for a year now, and the brand just released some new pictures of its Fall line. Doesn’t Seok look like an emo … Continue reading →
I honestly did not plan to post two articles on Yoona back-to-back, but the drama gods work in mysterious ways. I’ve been hoping that Han Hyo Joo would, despite all the rumors and signs pointing the other way, accept the leading role in Love Rain (formerly called Love Rides the Rain) with Jang Geun Seok, because the alternative was that an actress … Continue reading →
You know how certain set ups just don’t work for some people? I can safely say the lonely career woman adopts a full grown male dancer pet construct in the upcoming You’re My Pet movie just doesn’t work for me. Doesn’t matter if it’s Jang Geun Seok this time instead of MatsuJun, or whether I think Kim Ha Neul can … Continue reading →
I totally need to buy a lottery ticket or something, what with my penchant for correct predictions. A few weeks ago I posted a speculation of the young actresses who could be in contention for the highly coveted lead actress role in Seasons dramas PD Yoon Seok Ho‘s upcoming drama Love Rides the Rain, which had already cast Jang Geun Seok … Continue reading →
While Koala was on vacation this August, my GeunGeun babies took a working vacation to Japan as well. Jang Geun Seok and Moon Geun Young, along with some of their Mary Stayed Out All Night co-stars, headed to Tokyo and then Osaka to put on a M3 drama concert for the fans in Japan. All together, the two concerts brought … Continue reading →
Leave it to LMHMG (see glossary for definition) to be the one to screw with my vacation schedule and drop a K-ent bombshell. Lee Min Ho and Park Min Young, having just starred in the well-received City Hunter, has just confirmed they are dating. On one hand, I am thrilled for them. Beyond thrilled actually, I am totally and completely … Continue reading →
If anyone thought that I would not write about Jang Geun Seok returning to drama land, and in a Yoon Seok Ho drama no less, then you clearly don’t know the hold this boy has over me. It’s not that I find him cute, it’s that I find him cute, think he has a charming real life personality, and most … Continue reading →
What have my GeunGeuns been up to lately? Jang Geun Seok has been busy filming You’re My Pet with Kim Ha Neul, while Moon Geun Young went back to school for the last semester. She’s got a fan meeting scheduled for July 30th, of which the tickets sold out in about 15 minutes flat once it went on sale. The … Continue reading →
On a special episode of SMAPxSMAP to be broadcast on July 18th, Jang Geun Seok will be a special guest on the show’s “Bistro SMAP” segment, cooking and goofing off with KimuTaku and co. A few K-stars have appeared on the show in the past, and it’s a testament to Jang Geun Seok’s sky-rocketing popularity in Japan that he gets … Continue reading →
Magnificent. Beautiful. Stunning. What the heck was W Korea doing publishing the stills of Lee Min Jung and Jang Geun Seok’s Cartier Bague photoshoot first before the actual CF movie was released? The stills do not do this CF justice, which I found simply sublime, quiet and introspective, desolate yet immersive. To say I loved the full 6-minute CF is … Continue reading →
I brought two cut scenes from Mary Stayed Out All Night in an earlier post here, but now I’m bringing the remainder of the scenes that were not shown in the broadcast but added back later for the Director’s Cut edition of the M3 DVD. To be honest it’s not absolutely necessary that these scenes were added, but every little … Continue reading →
The cast of the upcoming K-movie You’re My Pet had a brief overseas shoot in Japan last month and now the filming moves back to Korea. The movie held an open shoot day for the media that coincided with a rain-required shoot for when Kim Ha Neul’s character first meets Jang Geun Seok’s character. Via a box. He’s a pet, … Continue reading →
Sometimes context and medium does make a huge difference. Two weeks ago I posted the stills from Jang Geun Seok and Lee Min Jung‘s W Korea pictorial, which was actually shot for the Cartier Bague line. I didn’t like the stills that much – I found them interesting but not terribly embraceable. But now that I’ve watched the official making-of-video, … Continue reading →
