Maybe I should write more about K-celebs that have been out of the limelight for some time because lo and behold a week after I wondered when Han Ye Seul would finally come back to acting she’s dropping a twofer on the industry. This week comes news that Leslie has signed with KeyEast Entertainment after being with SB Entertainment for … Continue reading →
Ready or not, the the rather derogatorily named K-drama rom-com Sly and Single Again (Cunning Single Lady) is headed our way next week. It follows behind Miss Korea which was preempted one episode for the Olympics so will air its final episode next Wednesday. This drama then gets a Thursday premiere and MBC has decided to air two episodes back-to-back. … Continue reading →
I’m so glad Miss Korea turned out to be a 20-episode drama otherwise I’d be suffering a double dose of withdrawal symptoms if it wrapped up last week at the same time as Prime Minister and I. Â Miss Korea’s follow up drama Cunning Single Lady with Joo Sang Wook and Lee Min Jung is gearing up for a premiere in … Continue reading →
Casting is pretty much a done deal for the upcoming MBC Wed-Thurs drama following Miss Korea and it’s going to be Lee Min Jung and Joo Sang Wook for the rom-com Cunning Single Lady. This drama is being produced by Fantagio Entertainment and will be MBC’s first prime time rom-com in years. In 2013 the network had nary a rom-com … Continue reading →
Feast of the Gods with Sung Yuri and Joo Sang Wook released a second teaser this week, which was definitely more engaging than the first one, but for all the wrong reasons. Wow was it makjangy to the core, what with the suspenseful music, crying, screaming, yelling, and general aura of pain and frustration littered in a measly 30 seconds. … Continue reading →
The first teaser is out for the upcoming K-drama Feast of the Gods, which is flying so far under the radar it might as well declare itself undercover. The drama stars seasoned actors Sung Yuri, Joo Sang Wook, Lee Sang Woo, and Seo Hyun Jin, with the only synopsis available saying that it is about Korean cuisine. Since it’s a … Continue reading →
Early February sees the premiere of a new weekend drama on MBC called Feast of the Gods. Casting was finalized awhile ago, but the drama just started quietly releasing official promotional stills. The show will be partly filmed in Jeju, so the still above is of the lead Sung Yuri filming a melancholy scene on Jeju back in December. I’m … Continue reading →
The cast of The Thorn Birds had their press conference today, and the first thought in my mind was “already?”, which made me realize that President was ending this week. Aish, I took a break a few weeks ago from President so I could concentrate and marathon it in sitting, and whoosh time just flies right on by. Luckily, I’m … Continue reading →
The upcoming KBS Wed-Thurs drama The Thorn Birds released its first batch of drama poster and stills, and boy am I underwhelmed. I can’t quite figure out what the drama is about just yet (something about a woman persevering through adversity and rising above the odds with her strong spirit), but I do know that the stylist who dressed both … Continue reading →
They look really good together. That was the first thought going through my mind when I saw the first stills released by KBS for their upcoming Wed-Thurs drama The Thorn Birds (also referred to as Thorn Three Bird). Leads Han Hye Jin and Joo Sang Wook started filming three days ago, and the stills depict their first contentious meeting whereby … Continue reading →
I’m a glass half-full type of person. But I’m also a rubber-necking train wreck type of person. In my excitement over my latest shiny toys dramas My Princess and Dream High, I figure I should also give another premiering Mon-Tues drama a chance, if only purely out of my morbid fascination with how much this drama looks like crap. The … Continue reading →
