2012 has been Jung So Min‘s comeback year after bursting out of the gate in 2010 with two high profile dramas in Bad Guy and Playful Kiss. She took 2011 off from acting to go back to school and in her return to acting has been less high profile, taking on a role in the sitcom Standby followed by playing … Continue reading →
It’s nice to watch a drama film under the radar without being crammed full of big-name stars or idols since the expectations lessen considerably, though it does make it difficult to obtain as many goodies without the enthusiastic fangirls scouring the earth for any tidbit of news. The upcoming cable network jTBC drama Can We Get Married is premiering on October … Continue reading →
The first character stills are out for the upcoming jTBC cable drama Can We Get Married? The drama stars Lee Mi Sook as a career woman matriarch with two daughters, the eldest is married to a doctor while the youngest is a teacher preparing for her upcoming wedding. The drama revolves around four couples who are either married and going … Continue reading →
It’s rather ironic for me to see Jung So Min paired up with Im Shi Wan, because they are almost opposites in how I perceive their acting. Min Min is the queen of 101 natural expressions, so vivid and candid without coming across as gummy or overacting. Shi Wan has at most one and a half expressions, and I’m rather … Continue reading →
I get really sad when I don’t see friends or family for an extended period of time. The same thing goes for actors I love to watch onscreen. While some of my faves have done projects in 2011, if the end results sucked or it just wasn’t my cup of tea, I ended up not watching it. But there are … Continue reading →
My pretty Playful Kiss babies Jung So Min and Kim Hyun Joong were reunited earlier this month for a fan meeting in Tokyo, and Hyun Joong also followed that up with some performances for his new mini-album. It’s almost the one-year anniversary of PK’s premiere, which also reminds me that I’ve been recapping dramas for an entire year. How time … Continue reading →
Now that’s more like it, kids! After holding a fan meeting for Playful Kiss in Japan, where Kim Hyun Joong and Jung So Min were adorable together but less touchy-feely than I would have liked, the two of them attended a press conference the day after to answer more PK-related questions for the Japanese media. All I know is that … Continue reading →
[Edit: I’m adding new official newspaper photos as it becomes available] Coming across this news is like finding an ice-cream sundae complete with whip cream and a cherry on top. P-Kissers, you can all come out of the woodworks now, cuz Ha Ni and Seung Jo are back, baby! Kim Hyun Joong and Jung So Min were in Osaka yesterday for a … Continue reading →
Pretty, so very delectably young and pretty. Clinique chose Kim Soo Hyun and Jung So Min as the spokesmodels for its Moisture Surge line of moisturizer, and Vogue Girl filmed the photoshoot and released a cute little video showing both stars gamely primping and posing. Everything about this ad campaign is perfect, from the age-appropriate stars to the flirty Spring … Continue reading →
The 2010 Year End Drama Awards for the major Korean networks were just a scant month ago, yet somewhere it feels like a year has passed. Allure Korea did a photospread on various actresses as they primped and prepared for attending one of the three awards shows. While I didn’t like all the dresses on these ladies the night of … Continue reading →
MBC held its 2010 Drama Awards yesterday, and I can’t let the year end without a shout out to Dr. Baek Seung Jo and Nurse Oh Ha Ni. Our Playful Kiss newlyweds showed up at a rather tame and comparatively lackluster event (since MBC was the ratings laggard behind SBS and KBS all year).
Continue reading →This weekend’s highly anticipated promotional tour in Taiwan for Playful Kiss is sadly a no-go. Kim Hyun Joong, who appears to be unable to stop working for even a day (poor baby), is suffering from exhaustion due to his work schedule and is in much need of rest. His co-star Jung So Min will not be going either, since without … Continue reading →
The full MV has dropped for the “Take on me” remake by Superstar K (the K-version of American Idol) winner Seo In Kook. As the teaser indicated, it stars So Ji Sub and Jung So Min. The MV pays homage to the original MV by A-ha, which was quite innovative back in the early 80s – it was part live-action and … Continue reading →
