I think Let’s Fight Ghost has a fighting chance of being watchable, if not substantively gripping it might be mildly diverting as a summer offering. Seeing high school girl ghost Kim So Hyun with college student ghost hunter Taecyeon isn’t as jarring or disconcerting as I worried about. They seem to have a fun bright chemistry in the stills, the … Continue reading →

Though it looks like for upcoming tvN supernatural drama Let’s Fight Ghost Taecyeon doesn’t have the reddish tinted hair he sported in Who Are You, which made him look considerably younger, the buzz cut and young man clothing choices still work to bring him closer to 20 than to his real age of nearer to 30. It was Kim So Hyun‘s … Continue reading →
The forehead hair up or down post from last week seems prescient when looking at the first pictures of Taecyeon filming for upcoming tvN drama Let’s Fight Ghost.

This trend of aging up teen actresses really needs to be stopped. There isn’t a lack of talented actresses in their twenties who would shine when made up to that age group, but the new 1st Look pictorial featuring 16 year old Kim So Hyun with so much makeup she’s veering into sageuk gisaeng territory makes me wince. She’s so … Continue reading →

I love screenwriter Park Hye Ryun so it’s bittersweet that she’s coming back this month with a new K-drama but it’s only going to be a short three episode special. If anyone can deliver something short and sweet it’s her, so many of Park Hye Ryun’s successful dramas like I Hear Your Voice and Pinocchio all made huge impressions in … Continue reading →
I think Kim So Hyun is raking up all the most promising young actors around her age group, and no one is blinking an eye other than wanting to throw even more at her.
