When I said earlier than 2013 was a tsunami year of K-ent dating couples and scandals, I didn’t realize my own beloved Moon Geun Young and Kim Bum would join its ranks and start dating for real. Those two confirmed their dating rumors swiftly, but in the last few weeks a few new dating allegations have popped up as well … Continue reading →
2013 is going to do down as a year in infamy for breaking drama fangirl hearts. I don’t recall any one year where this many oppas and even young hotties have gone and taken themselves off the market. Is it something in the water over there? The following got hitched: Kim Jae Won, Ji Sung (Lee Bo Young), Lee Byung … Continue reading →
You have no idea how happy and relieved I am to come across Jung Kyung Ho news. The last I heard of him, Cruel City (Heartless City) was ending in a torrent of tears while leading man Jung Kyung Ho was off to recover and rehab from a serious back injury sustained towards the latter part of the grueling filming … Continue reading →
Have y’all Cruel City (Heartless City) fans calmed down now from the ending of this amazing drama? Admittedly the ending isn’t for everyone, it wasn’t particularly brutal so that the faint of heart felt gut punched. It gave hope where hope was plausible, and devastation when the ultimate price had to be paid. There was a news article with a … Continue reading →
It’s a triplicate of K-drama finales this week what with Cruel City (Heartless City), Shark (Don’t Look Back), and I Hear Your Voice all ending. IHYV fans will have to wait two more days to see how their beloved drama wraps up after getting a 2-episode extension, but CC and Shark aired their 20th and last episode today and the … Continue reading →
Oh noes, this is terrible news. With Cruel City (Heartless City) wrapping up this coming week, filming has just finished with the talented and dedicated cast and crew and with it comes confirmation that leading man Jung Kyung Ho is actually seriously injured as has been rumored for weeks. Due to the heavy action scenes in this drama, most of … Continue reading →
Another week, another Jung Kyung Ho appreciation post. These will never get old, I tell ya. This boy/man/hotness in a slim package will only get better with age. I remember how fresh-faced he looked in MiSa and just look at him now, all well-earned little wrinkles and the gravitas of having served in the military and come back a more … Continue reading →
I’m still watching and loving Cruel City (Heartless City) on cable network jTBC. But I’m glad I didn’t decide to jump into recapping it because I enjoy the watch but enough episodes have aired that convince me a deeper analysis and read of this drama isn’t going to enhance my enjoyment. It’s easily one of the best K-dramas this year … Continue reading →
These cute BTS pictures snapped by the cast on the set of Cruel City (Heartless City) are exponentially cuter once you take into account the context. The gritty and tension-laden noir thriller airing on cable network jTBC has crossed the halfway mark of its airing and is still as taut and well-written as ever. Starring Jung Kyung Ho, Nam Gyu … Continue reading →
This is going to be a busy week in K-drama land. Two high-profile Mon-Tues dramas are wrapping up in Gu Family Book and Jang Ok Jung, Live in Love, while next weekend a sprawling cast weekend drama Goddess of Marriage premieres. In between I’m toggling Cruel City (Heartless City) to start off the week with the sweet kids-bonding-through-music Monstar to … Continue reading →
I’ve seen my share of odd photo shoot concepts, but for the most part its from the edgier magazines such as Vogue for the ladies, GQ or Details for the men, or perhaps an indie rag or two. InStyle Magazine is probably as straitlaced as they come, like the Toyota Camry of the publishing world when it comes to mixing … Continue reading →
When an actor gives what is surely going to be iconic performance in his own career trajectory, the process is akin to watching a work of art being formed. Its so delicate and organic, so alive and pulsating with energy, when the art of acting meets the right character at the right time in an actor’s life. Seeing Jung Kyung … Continue reading →
Now that I’m all caught on up Cruel City (Heartless City), it’s neat to work backwards like Memento on its trail of drama goodies. I did keep this drama on my radar when I knew Jung Kyung Ho was cast as the lead in his first post-military service comeback drama. But the inclusion of Nam Gyu Ri totally turned me … Continue reading →
