Welp, now this makes sense. Turns out the investigation over whether K-actor Ha Jung Woo used a false name at a Gangnam beauty clinic last year to get administered propofol came out of the police investigating the hacker that tapped into the phones of many rich and famous people and started blackmailing them. One was K-actor Joo Jin Mo who … Continue reading →
Get ready for the second wave to come of likely more depressing reveals about another K-star. K-ent is reporting that a Top Star A is also among the stars hacked by the recent blackmailer of Joo Jin Mo, whose texts with Jang Dong Gun from 2013 were released after he refused to pay up. Good for him, bad for his … Continue reading →
Man, this isn’t disappointing it’s just flat out a seminal moment in K-ent, almost a second wave of the Me Too movement of 2018 when many male K-stars were outed to have harassed, assaulted, abused, and even raped women during their career in power. Last year it was the younger stars like Seungri and Jung Joon Young revealed to have … Continue reading →
Well this is certainly a terrible way to start off 2020 for 10 K-stars. Actor Joo Jin Mo is the first and only so far to go public after reporting a blackmail attempt to the police after a hacker contacted him demanding money otherwise his information would be released. Police have now revealed that 10 stars from actors to idols … Continue reading →
June 2019 kicks off in K-ent with a wedding of a top actor, with leading man Joo Jin Mo tying the knot at the age of 44 years old. He married a celebrity doctor Min Hye Yeon who is ten years younger and famous in her own right for being considered very pretty for a real life medical doctor and … Continue reading →
I thought SBS Wed-Thurs drama An Empress’s Dignity would prove to the outlier of the recent years big three network’s prime time drama slump but alas after a surprising start it’s since fallen in ratings after the writing reportedly got crazier and the network decided to milk it by extending by four episodes. That means we won’t see the next Wed-Thurs … Continue reading →
There may be a new standard in quality and quantity of star attendees to the VIP movie premiere of period war escape movie Battleship Island.

The drama train is prepping to leave the station next week, with a Woman with a Suitcase on it headed for narrative depths unknown. As a lawyer I can be nitpickier with legal dramas but there have been plenty I’ve loved, just none in recent years as the tendency towards ham-fisted morality plays trump procedural accuracy. I love the Woman … Continue reading →
I see a suitcase on K-actress Choi Ji Woo, so that makes her upcoming MBC Mon-Tues drama Woman with a Suitcase a literal title rather than metaphorical. The first stills are out for all four leads, the titular woman with a suitcase played by Choi Ji Woo, her leading man Joo Jin Mo, and younger acting talents Jeon Hye Bin … Continue reading →
Veteran K-actress Choi Ji Woo is no stranger to suitcases, adorably packing for her trip on variety show Grandpas Over Flowers two years ago, and last year packed up metaphorically to go back to her college days with Second Time Twenty Again. Now she becomes the titular Woman with a Suitcase, having confirmed her casting as the female lead for the … Continue reading →
The cable dramas have been promoting better these days, even if the end quality is as hit-and-miss as the major network dramas. At least there is a bigger emphasis on packaging an overall mood of heady attraction when it comes the romance-based dramas. I still fan myself thinking back to the photo shoot Yoo Ah In and Kim Hee Ae did … Continue reading →
Oh wow, I think this one might just work for me. Falling for Innocence wrapped up its run on jTBC this past week but the follow up drama My Love Eun Dong got a jump start on airing by releasing three short webisodes online to tease the audience. It worked on me, the whole thing gives off an old-fashioned innocent … Continue reading →
