Last week was the 2016 Asia Artist Awards, which was by all accounts a giant steaming mess with ceremony glitches and a hodge podge of categories that made the very award seem superfluous. With that said, this awards ceremony managed to get a good showing of popular K-stars that skewed younger, with the biggest ladies being Suzy, Yoona, and Park Shin … Continue reading →
It’s hard to keep watching my beloved Hyun Bin pick movie after movie, but maybe my patience will be rewarded next year after he finishes this one and perhaps considers a K-drama then. Binnie and Yoo Ji Tae, the two male leads of upcoming Korean thriller movie Ggoon (Swindler) sat down for script reading along with a sprawling cast of familiar … Continue reading →
It’s all come together now for Kim Eun Sook‘s upcoming tvN fantasy drama Goblin, a male lead dominated production that continues Kim Eun Sook’s trend of finding the most charismatic male leads around.

It’s been a nice month-long build up towards the premiere of the C-version of Queen In Hyun’s Man. The drama Love Through a Millennium starts this Sunday and airs two episodes a week every Sun-Mon similar to the typical Korean drama airing schedule rather than the frenetic C-drama airing of two short episodes a night all week long.

I’m getting a tad overexcited about the upcoming C-remake of Queen In Hyun’s Man. Blame it on the visuals, or shall I say I’m a sucker for super pretty dramas. The C-remake is being produced in conjunction with the Korean company that made the original, shipping in the Korean PD behind I Need Romance 2 and I Need Romance 3 … Continue reading →
I often wonder about serendipitous timing of news stories, either it’s mostly manufactured or conveniently timed, or else shit really does happens in twos and threes.
