I’m actually looking forward to this movie for some reason, even though the pairing of Yang Mi with Luhan seems like a textbook no-brainer movie casting to stick the two most buzzed about C-entertainers in the same project. China continues to power the remake train of Korean movies and dramas, not to the point of seeming unoriginal and desperate, but … Continue reading →
This rumor takes the cake for how far out there it is, if it’s true then it certainly might be the biggest scoop of the Asian entertainment year. Chinese entertainment media is falling over thanks to some juicy big mid-week gossip. A popular anonymous weibo account that regularly breaks star rumors dropped a bombshell scandal that has been linked to … Continue reading →
I would be so grateful if EXO fans could enlighten me on Luhan‘s appeal. I know he left the group over half a year ago and isn’t a member anymore, but I am genuinely clueless when it comes to what makes this very young man (who looks even younger) so popular. I ask this because Luhan just made the cover … Continue reading →
This break up might end up being good for both sides without any future conflicts. At least from the angle of popularity and potential both sides are doing just fine.

Which is why I’m happy to be pleasantly surprised with the upcoming Chinese version of the hit … Continue reading →
At the end of the day show business is still a commodity and the show must go on. That makes the producers of the Chinese version of the hit K-movie Miss Granny pretty darn savvy to start releasing movie stills the very week that one of it’s stars generates massive headlines. The C-version is also called Miss Granny with the … Continue reading →
HOLY SHIT. I’m seriously speechless right now. What the heck is really is going on at K-pop powerhouse agency SM Entertainment? I mean this less in a rubber necking way and more concerned about whether the company is having a mini-meltdown as I type. That would be awful for the remaining entertainers there trying to keep their head down and just … Continue reading →
The remake of hit movies and shows are nothing new across different entertainment industries. Sometimes it works and there is room for another version, other times one wishes the original would be left well enough alone. This year’s hit K-movie Miss Granny starring Shim Eum Kyung, which won her a Best Actress Baeksang, will be getting a C-movie version to … Continue reading →
