Now this is more like it! The opening night red carpet of the 2019 Busan International Film Festival (BIFF) really delivered the wow factor with many famous names and faces showing up to support the local film industry. The big pairing to walk the red carpet together was Jung Woo Sung and Honey Lee looking impeccable in the respective black … Continue reading →
If Jung Hae In and Kim Go Eun are auditioning for a drama OTP then they just blew it out of the park and if I were a drama executive I would shoehorn these two into a good script ASAP. The two are continuing on their promotional campaign for their feel good movie Tune in for Love and are getting … Continue reading →
I’m not quite feeling the onscreen or on print chemistry of Jung Hae In and Kim Go Eun as they promote their upcoming movie Tune in for Love (Yoo Yeol’s Music Album). They kinda have sibling face and the same sweet low key vibe when they act so they at most seem like best platonic friends type, and I felt … Continue reading →
I really like Kim Go Eun and Jung Hae In but feel like both are always at the knife’s edge of K-netizen commentary. If they do well it’s taken as a given but one wrong step in acting, role, or behavior and each are excoriated. I wish K-netizens stopped eating their talented young and nurture them to walk the long … Continue reading →
This looks like a sweet harmless movie if I ever saw one and funnily enough stars two stars that K-netizens are prickly towards. Jung Hae In and Kim Go Eun put on their late ’90s gear to star in the K-movie Tune in for Love (Yoo Yeol’s Music Album) set during the IMF crisis where two people share love stories … Continue reading →
There are dramas I have a change of opinion and perhaps even merits a mea culpa of sorts. MBC Wed-Thurs drama Spring Night. I was really bored with the first two episodes but continued on because I quite like the performances of both leads Han Ji Min and Jung Hae In. I’m glad I continued because the story and directing … Continue reading →
The title of this upcoming drama makes me think of milk, the half and half variety, but alas the K-drama Half of Half (which is like a quarter, right?) is not about dairy products and is totally about artificial intelligence. The drama has cast back in demand young male lead Jung Hae In in the lead role, great news for … Continue reading →
Some onscreen pairings giving off sparks whether due to chemistry or as created by the story line, so for upcoming MBC Wed-Thurs romance Spring Night I’m going to say that both the leads and the story will deliver a slow and steady build up. Leads Han Ji Min and Jung Hae In attended the press conference this week along with … Continue reading →
PD Ahn Pan Seok is known for building mood and his next drama Spring Night on MBC digs into the season transitions and also emotional changes as the nights go from cold to warm. The official drama posters are out and shows leads Han Ji Min and Jung Hae In in a moment from the drama, when he visits her … Continue reading →
A good romance, and I mean the serious and contemplative kind, remains elusively hard to effectively craft. You need both leads who generate onscreen chemistry and a story line that grounds the romance into something the viewers connect with and will root for. I’m wary for upcoming MBC Wed-Thurs drama Spring Night because female lead Han Ji Min plays an … Continue reading →
PD Ahn Pan Seok really has a strong visual identity when he crafts his dramas. Each is unique and you can see that he maps out the entire tapestry in advance so there is cohesiveness in the production collateral, casting, and story line. His next drama is the MBC romance Spring Night and he’s gone overboard to deliver both the … Continue reading →
I don’t know why I assumed Han Ji Min and Jung Hae In were playing a couple going for a second chance at love in upcoming MBC romance drama Spring Night. Turns out she’s dating someone already and meeting single dad Jung Hae In is what prompt her to ditch the old for the new. PD Ahn Pan Seok loves … Continue reading →
I’ve never seen K-actor Jung Hae In as a sexy, always the sweet boy next door, but the first stills of him from MBC romance drama Spring Night turn him into stuffy ahjusshi territory. I’m sure it’s part of his character persona but the plaid shirt buttoned up to the top and vest combo under his pharmacist white coat definitely … Continue reading →
