I’m so ready to go on an adventure with Lee Seung Gi as the titular SBS drama lead in Vagabond. Wherever he’s headed it looks gorgeously picturesque such as the latest stills from the overseas location shoot in Morocco. He’s got the seasoned and weathered angry look down pat as a stuntman searching for answers in a plane crash that … Continue reading →

I’m quite amused with how popular Jasper Liu (Liu Yi Hao) is in South Korea now. He conquered Japan early on his career and I could see his offbeat and sweet nature appealing to the Japanese fans.

Has it been 15 years, really? Legit blew my mind to think nation’s son (or son-in-law) Lee Seung Gi has been in the entertainment industry for 15 years and counting this week. He posted a selfie last week to thank fans for this milestone as be debuted on June 5, 2004 at the age of 17 years with the song … Continue reading →
I think the delay for SBS to air action drama Vagabond from end of May to September is turning out to be a great idea.

I’ve loved me some boba tea ever since it was invented like 30 years ago but nowadays it’s impossible to deny that the concoction has evolved beyond tea and tapioca pearls. You can’t walk a block anywhere in a major city without getting hit by a boba store banner but the drinks are way to sweet and more of a … Continue reading →
