It’s a big get for the organizers of KCON Los Angeles, now in it’s fifth year and still rocking and rolling out the Hallyu. This year’s special guest is none other than Lee Min Ho, in a role occupied by Kim Soo Hyun last year and Lee Seung Gi the year before. By this trajectory I’m expecting to see Song … Continue reading →
The different tastes of the Chinese and Korean audiences is once more at the forefront as a new poll taken of one thousand voters revealed results that differed some in quality while still hewing to similar popularity barometers. Song Joong Ki landed on both lists top three for favorite actor/actress, but he was number 1 in the Chinese choice while … Continue reading →
The pretties of Chinese-Korean caper movie Bounty Hunters is ready for the cat and mouse game come its July 1st premiere date, and they got an early head start attending the star-studded Shanghai Film Festival. Starring Lee Min Ho, Wallace Chung, Tang Yan, Karena Ng, Jones Xu and Louis Fan, the final set of movie posters and trailer was released … Continue reading →
I don’t think this will end up being some great debate as much as a fun time to share personal visual preferences. While Korean actors are well known for being intensely easy on the eyes, sometimes their styling onscreen and in real life leave much to be desired – whether it’s visible pink lipstick in character, hilariously awkward ensembles, or … Continue reading →
The K-netizens have spoken in the latest poll conducted of over 15,000 fans, asking which male ’87er was most likely to be a top star the longest.

I’m going to place my bet that there will be a big bounty at the box office waiting for Korean-Chinese movie Bounty Hunters when it premieres on July 1st. The third trailer really hammers home the fun factor, and for caper and chase movies like this fun outweighs the substance so there’s not a huge hill to climb to win … Continue reading →

Hoo boy, this news is likely going to be polarizing so here goes – one of the top current generation Hallyu actors Lee Min Ho will be preparing for military enlistment to come either end of this year or early next year, and now his agency has revealed he will not be serving acting duty but instead public service.

How time flies is a total understatement when it comes to Lee Min Ho. I swear I just saw him for the first time in Boys Before Flowers, and yet it’s been close to 8 years since that drama aired in 2009 and introduced the greater Hallyu world to this talented young man. Sure he’s been hit or miss since then … Continue reading →
Promotions are ramping up big time for upcoming Korean-Chinese joint production movie Bounty Hunters. Starring Lee Min Ho, Wallace Chung, and Tang Yan, the movie is directed by a Korean movie director based on a Chinese script, following a team of swashbuckling bounty hunters on the heels of an international crime syndicate. The first trailer looked entertaining enough but I’m … Continue reading →
I’ve always expected a star of Lee Min Ho’s popularity to set up shop on his own sooner rather than later, so this news is not surprising other than the direction he chose to take. Lee Min Ho has left his long time agency Starhaus Entertainment is signed with newly formed label MYM Entertainment, with MYM standing for Me And You … Continue reading →
Lee Min Ho‘s Q score remains sky high in China despite not having a hit project since Heirs two years ago.
