Ahhhhh, Rooftop Prince, you are so diabolical! How can you release this fantastical and tempting long trailer and then tell me I have to wait 10! more days to sample your delicious goodness?

The Min-Min couple has apparently broken up, so says one-half of the cute pair. Park Min Young‘s agency just confirmed that the couple broke up last year after dating for not that long, but was hesitant to reveal it due to concerns about public reaction. I dunno, I figure fans on both sides would be thrilled, through the shortness of … Continue reading →
Happy Camp is one hot variety program, landing celebrity after celebrity from all over Asia to arrive on their stage. Lee Da Hae famously showed up last Summer and did an entire program without a Korean interpreter since she has been studying Chinese for the past 5 years.

Lee Min Ho, whose popularity shot up even more this year in China thanks to City Hunter, held a fan meeting in Shanghai this week that reportedly caused a traffic jams from the moment he arrived in the city and his fans started stalking him from the airport to the hotel and to the arena. Sometimes I wonder if I … Continue reading →
A bevy of top K-stars have been selected to model Cartier LOVE jewelry for this year’s Cartier Korea charity event, which has selected the International Vaccine Institute to receive a donation of a portion of Cartier’s proceeds from the December sales of its LOVE collection in Korea. I’m all for vaccinating children and even adults in high risk regions, plus … Continue reading →
Korean sportswear brand Eider is continuing their “Eider Friends” campaign, which launched last year with the pairing of Jang Hyuk and PIE, sending them all the way to New Zealand to scale huge cliffs and then do the bromance hug once they reached the peak. This time around, Eider has selected just-hot-off-City-Hunter Lee Min Ho and Yoona of SNSD to … Continue reading →
Leave it to LMHMG (see glossary for definition) to be the one to screw with my vacation schedule and drop a K-ent bombshell. Lee Min Ho and Park Min Young, having just starred in the well-received City Hunter, has just confirmed they are dating. On one hand, I am thrilled for them. Beyond thrilled actually, I am totally and completely … Continue reading →
Oh boy, this isn’t looking too good for my boy Lee Min Ho and his turn as City Hunter. The second trailer is out, and the WTF-ery level actually didn’t go down from the inexplicably odd first trailer. This trailer makes it look like two completely different genre dramas spliced together, the comedy rom-com with the taunt thriller. Look, even … Continue reading →
With less than three weeks away from the premiere of City Hunter on SBS, right on schedule, the first teaser trailer has dropped. Y’all know I read City Hunter the manga, and I’ve been internally reconciling all the changes to the original story concept to this K-drama adaptation, so I figure I’m ready for anything CH wants to throw at … Continue reading →
When I saw the first stills of Park Min Young in her character of a Blue House bodyguard for City Hunter, I flashed back to Chae Rim in her character of a Blue House bodyguard for Rivals, and I immediately started screaming and trying to exorcise the resemblance from my mind. No, I don’t hate Chae Rim (she was actually … Continue reading →
If you asked me to fantasize about an uber-delicious K-actor doing a particular activity in a drama that would make me swoon – Lee Min Ho riding an elephant in Thailand would NOT be on the list. In fact, said scene would be banned from my list, because it’s just weird, not to mention totally random in the context of … Continue reading →

Wah? Of all the dissociative things that pop up in the funhouse that is Korean drama land (such as calling a drama The Thorn Birds when it has no priest whatsoever), this might just take the cake. The K-adaptation of the famed manga City Hunter finally has a female lead to go along with its male lead Lee Min Ho … Continue reading →
