Rising K-actor Jang Dong Yoon‘s next drama the cable network OCN thriller Search is getting lots of attention thanks to his breakout performance in KBS sageuk The Tale of Nokdu. I loved his chemistry with female lead Kim So Hyun which was critical to the drama since its a romance first and foremost. Search is billed as an action thriller … Continue reading →
We may have a new ignominious winner of the worst dressed K-celeb star event this time thanks to the burn your eyeball pairing with Italian couture brand Salvatore Ferragamo. Of the four attendees idol-actres Krystal was by far the worst dressed and I reckon she was just given the Ferragomo outfit and told to put it on because it fit her … Continue reading →
I so love the mood transition from beyond dark to knowingly cheeky for Song Seung Heon in his drama selection. Black was a riveting drama but took a piece of my drama heart with it watching so much misery, but now I get to have some getaway heist fun with Song Seung Heon in his upcoming OCN drama Player. The … Continue reading →
The OCN winter 2017 drama Black was so good and so dark and I’m thankful male lead Song Seung Heon‘s next pick is something that looks as fun and harmless as Player. He stars as the leader of a team of hustling thieves out to relieve other crooks of their ill-gotten gains. What a fun teaser, love the smooth one-shot … Continue reading →
I have this feeling that upcoming OCN heist baddies-stealing-from-baddies K-drama Player is going to be a hoot. Maybe not straight up comedy but enough intentional and unintentional comedic moments to be worth my while. Starring Song Seung Heon, Krystal, and Lee Si Un, the drama has a ragtag team of thieves stealing hidden ill-gotten gains from criminals, making us root … Continue reading →
I’m still in a good mood with Song Seung Heon‘s last drama Black, I loved both the drama and his swaggering and sensitive performance as the Grim Reaper turned reluctant cop. I’m glad he’s sticking with procedural dramas rather than go schmoopy romance and up next is another OCN drama called Player (former Pan and prior to that Hustle). It’s … Continue reading →
Black, white, red, and greys were the colors of the most recent Chanel fashion event in Seoul celebrating the brand’s pop up store Paris-Hamburg. Black Pink member Jennie was my fave in her head to toe embracing of the couture collection’s adorable white skirt suit with red trim. The hat just slays the look especially the way Jennie wears the … Continue reading →
I’m cautiously optimistic for upcoming OCN thriller drama Player, formerly called Hustle and then later Pan, and regardless of the earlier titles has confirmed the initially discussed leads Song Seung Heon and Krystal. The two leads will be playing members of a gang of four skilled at finding and extracting ill-gotten gains from criminals, i.e. stealing from the thieves. Directing … Continue reading →
This is too funny not to wonder if the K-drama gods were playing a joke and pulling the strings. After Song Seung Heon and Go Ara did the grim reaper police drama Black last year (which I loved!), she went off and got paired with L (Kim Myung Soo) for their upcoming drama Miss Hammurabi. I laughed because Go Ara is … Continue reading →
Congratulations is in order for PD Shin Won Ho of the Answer Me drama series in achieving yet another drama success and one that is outside his most famous franchise. PD Shin’s latest tvN drama Wise Prison Living (Prison Playbook) is a solid success halfway through airing with every episode increasing from the last. The drama started off with 4.638% … Continue reading →
Hit K-drama PD Shin Won Ho keeps making successes out of every day South Korean neighborhood and school life as he did with three Answer Me dramas for tvN in the past five years. Now he’s taking his talents to the prison world, crafting a drama described as light and humorous view of the daily life of prisoners and guards. … Continue reading →
When coincidences hit a certain number is when a trend emerges and 2017 definitely smells of short hair with K-actresses. I don’t mind but this time around with the short hair trend I’m not feeling most of the looks. Idol-actress Krystal is the latest to get onboard this train and is doing it in real life and not for a … Continue reading →
Lightning in a bottle is impossible to replicate and even trying something similar in genre is a risky move to make the comparisons all the more stark. tvN finished airing the K-drama adaptation of fantasy manhwa Bride of the Water God this week and the entire thing went down like me munching on a bag of somewhat stale potato chips … Continue reading →
