It’s the ladies turn to voice their preferences and this top-10 list has quite a few overlaps with the recently released male audience picks. There is a wee distinction, which was likely used in asking the question, as the men were asked which male actor they found the coolest/manliest, while the women were asked which male actor they found the … Continue reading →
SHOCK. Seriously, total and complete shocked state here. Even though I have my ear to the ground when it comes to rumored drama castings and in-development projects, this just breaking news feels like a sledgehammer out of nowhere. My first reaction is giddiness mixed with trepidation, with a side of pinch me to see if this is just some fan … Continue reading →
I love a good bromance, even better if the two dudes are both faves of mine. That’s the case now with super best buddies Lee Jong Seok and Kim Woo Bin, the two meeting on the set of School 2013 and not being shy with showing their affection for each other. Even the slightest sliver of shipper-dom for these two … Continue reading →
I went to sleep and woke up to a K-ent with a brand new top star couple confirmed. I’m more than happy to have missed the standard hullabaloo from dating rumor reveal to checking with the agency to confirmation/denial, but apparently this new couple copped to the still young relationship quite readily. Current K-ent It Boy Kim Woo Bin and … Continue reading →
In terms of Asia’s popular fast casual clothing brands, right not might not be a good time to be a Uniqlo spokesperson for China (heh), but Giordano is having a nice week in South Korea. Thanks to the news of popular Giordano spokescouple So Ji Sub and Shin Mina doing the drama Oh My God together, many news articles are … Continue reading →
I’m starting to wonder if Suzy and Lee Min Ho went the candid route in admitting their relationship three months ago when outed by Dispatch because they basically couldn’t hide their rosy romance glow. The stars were out in full force yesterday at the premiere of upcoming horror fantasy K-movie The Piper (Korean title Guest), with none more shining and … Continue reading →
Let’s get the positives out of the way first, which is that Kim Woo Bin and Kim So Hyun are two of the most buzzed about stars in K-ent this year and individually both look fantastic onscreen in the latest Dominos pizza ads. The CF itself has both gamely running through the dog and pony show, gushing over how yummy … Continue reading →
Have you ever taken one look at a picture and the immediate visceral reaction is “Uhmmmmm, no.” Maybe not as intense as a “hells no”, but definitely eliciting the reaction of wanting to send the whole thing back to sender to re-conceptualize it all. It’s rather cute that good friends Lee Jong Seok and Kim Woo Bin recently got stuck … Continue reading →
Last week was the opening ceremony of the 16th annual Jeonju International Film Festival (JIFF), the second largest film festival in Korea but still a ways away from the star-studded glitz of the largest film festival in the Busan. JIFF may be smaller but still screens dozens of movies through a ten day period, and lately has more indie cred … Continue reading →
Taiwan got a Hallyu two-fer last week courtesy of Sidus HQ. Whether by intentional scheduling or by coincidence, Jang Hyuk and Kim Woo Bin were both in Taiwan for various entertainment related events. Kim Woo Bin held his second fan meeting there while Jang Hyuk was there to film for a new movie and also held his first fan meeting … Continue reading →
It’s a good time to be Kim Woo Bin, that’s for sure. The box office numbers are in for the third week of the coming-of-age comedy movie Twenty, starring Kim Woo Bin, Junho of 2PM, and Kang Ha Neul. It’s enough for the pundits to declare the bromance movie a success, taking in over 2.7 million admissions in three weeks and … Continue reading →
The 2015 TV Report drama actors and actress power list is out, an annual survey the publication has done since 2013. The survey is compiled by the vote of the Korean drama industry’s top 30 PDs at the main three networks SBS, KBS, and MBC along with 10 producers at the top production companies, for a total vote by forty … Continue reading →
I wonder if Chinese casual wear brand Semir is playing a Pokemon game of “Gotta Catch ‘Em All”? How else to explain the brand snatching up one Korean male Hallyu star after another for its clothing campaigns. Kim Woo Bin is the latest to join the Semir line up that includes Lee Min Ho, Kim Soo Hyun, and Lee Jong Seok. … Continue reading →
