I feel like there are a handful of Korean drama actors and actresses who maintain success in the industry despite the declining ratings across the board, and the group is definitely larger than the eight being discussed here. K-news portal Osen recently published an article discussing the current four actors and four actresses who remain a lock in delivering ratings. … Continue reading →
It’s understandable for stars to hide their romance from their fans, for fear of losing the love and support from the crazies I suppose, but the flip side is that it keeps them from potentially doubling the affection and exposure. A recent poll asked Korean audiences which star couple they most wanted to see on TV doing CFs together, with … Continue reading →
I’d say 2015Â has certainly seen a flurry of unexpected star dating rumors and confirmation to rival the banner year of 2013, all we need is one more A-list couple to top it all off. So far this year we have globetrotting lovers Lee Min Ho–Suzy, what language barrier face perfect couple Song Seung Heon–Crystal Liu, a porcelain doll and her … Continue reading →
June 13th is a happy day for K-ent married star couple Lee Bo Young and Ji Sung as they welcomed the arrival of their first child, a healthy little baby girl. I feel like it’s been forever since Lee Bo Young announced her pregnancy, mostly due to so much going on with her husband Ji Sung’s career during the time … Continue reading →
What a heartwarming episode of celeb sweetness to start the week off right. Married acting couple and soon-to-be-parents Ji Sung and Lee Bo Young graciously shared their personal baby shower with their fans, posting a series of candid snaps on Instagram that perfectly capture the unbridled joy of welcoming impending parenthood. I love them both so so much, just the … 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 →
K-ent has been following along with two big celebrity couple pregnancies in the last few months and both had some updated news this week. The Lee-Lee married couple of Lee Byung Hun and Lee Min Jung welcomed a healthy baby boy on Tuesday morning in a Seoul hospital. The baby was born via C-section and narrowly avoided having an April … Continue reading →
These two give me back a little bit of faith in the celebrity marriage, and really in the idea of marriage as support and compromise. Ji Sung has been busy lately, and I mean real busy what with playing 7 different characters in the currently airing Kill Me Heal Me. AÂ live-filmed K-drama is basically 3 months of living on the … Continue reading →
This is basically a Lee Bo Young swoon post. There isn’t enough of these types of posts in the drama blogsphere since it’s usually the hottie guys who get all the drooling attention. I think Lee Bo Young’s career breakthrough the last two years have been much deserved, she’s put in years of toiling hard work in poor roles and … Continue reading →
This latest news about the upcoming year end drama awards doesn’t surprise me but I am still disappointed. While the awards don’t validate what I think is good acting, I’ve enjoyed the year end drama awards for the parade of stars and the fashion. Hearing that what was to be the most star-studded banquet over at SBS will likely get … Continue reading →
Awwwww, this is seriously the best K-ent news to come along in quite some time. Established and popular Korean acting couple Lee Bo Young and Ji Sung have confirmed that they are expecting a new baby arriving sometime in the summer of 2015. I love how that sounds like an upcoming blockbuster movie. The couple started dating in 2005 after … Continue reading →
The similar style and theme pictorials of Park Shin Hye for Harper’s Bazaar and Lee Bo Young for Elle Korea are both just a little bit off. Nothing ruinous or detracting, but both can do so much better. It’s odd to see them shilling for structured leather bags heading into Summer since it’s a much more Fall fashion trend to … Continue reading →
The 50th annual Baeksang Art Awards concluded last night and actually managed to not render me wholly disappointed even with next to zero expectations. I can’t say the entire endeavor rewarded and feted the most deserving movies, dramas, actors, and actresses (since many of the best were not even nominated to begin with), but at least the final prizes went … Continue reading →
