MBC drama People With Flaws got embroiled tangentially in the off screen divorce drama surrounding male lead Ahn Jae Hyun but hopefully that’s all in the past now and viewers can anticipate this drama solely on its intended merits. I still think the set up is too K-drama opposites attract, a man focused on good looks and a woman who … Continue reading →
A drama is the work of tens if not hundreds of people, with the high profile cast only the tip of the iceberg. I hope the recent tabloid glare on male lead Ahn Jae Hyun doesn’t negatively impact his upcoming MBC drama People With Flaws costarring Oh Yeon Seo. It actually sounds kinda stupid in concept – a woman who … Continue reading →
Seriously, nothing good ever comes from trying to resolve an impasse with emotional reactions. For the currently mired in melodrama and accusations pending divorce between K-stars Ahn Jae Hyun and Gu Hye Sun, it doesn’t matter if one or the other is 100% at fault or more likely both played a role in the failed marriage, it doesn’t solve the … Continue reading →
There’s a new K-drama lined up and frankly it better be awesomely written and directed to muster any interest from me. MBC has scheduled rom-com People With Flaws for this November 2019 and cast Ahn Jae Hyun and Oh Yeon Seo as the leads. He hasn’t had a hit as a standalone male lead and her last hit was years … Continue reading →
The leads are confirmed for the next MBC Wed-Thurs drama coming down the pipe line for summer 2019. The network has scheduled the rom-com People with Flaws starring Oh Yeon Seo and Ahn Jae Hyun, an unexpected pairing but both have worked on plenty of MBC dramas before. The drama is about the romance between a woman who refuses to … Continue reading →
This isn’t really buzzy news even in the smaller world of K-ent star couples but since I wrote about their pretty surprising dating news last year it closes the loop now to write about their unsurprising breakup. K-acting stars Oh Yeon Seo and a few years younger Kim Bum have confirmed their breakup after 10 months of dating. They met … Continue reading →
The fashions are less the center of attention when the purpose of an event is charitable rather than awards driven. Lots of big name K-celebs took time out to attend the W Korea annual cancer charity fundraiser in Seoul, with half in subdued looks for the more serious occasion and others trying on colorful and rather interesting looks. Kim Hee … Continue reading →
I love me some super girly fashions on occasion but the Mulberry event in Seoul this week was frilly, ruched, and puffed to excess. Quite a few well known actresses and idols were in attendance and this time the idols out dressed the actresses in terms of going for the more understated of the brands looks. Rose and Lisa of … Continue reading →
Some things are better left alone even if it wasn’t done properly, especially if the second go-around is going to be even worse in a different way. The Cheese in the Trap movie with returning male lead Park Hae Jin with new costars Oh Yeon Seo, Park Ki Woong, and Yoo In Young has spent three weeks in the Korean … Continue reading →
This is such an out-of-nowhere dating couple I don’t really have any commentary to offer. But then again since I’ve been covering K-ent there have been plenty of random pairings so this isn’t wholly bizarre. K-ent is reporting that Oh Yeon Seo and Kim Bum are dating, and shortly after news broke their agencies confirmed the two met in early … Continue reading →
If I were Oh Yeon Seo I would be counting my lucky stars that the movie filmed last year happens to be premiering this week in South Korea, just in time to completely shift all discussion from Hwayugi to Cheese in the Trap. She’s in the news this week promoting the movie adaptation of the webtoon with her stepping into … Continue reading →
My Lee Seung Gi has been freed! Like his character Song Oh Gong with the geumganggo magical bracelet binding him, the ending of Hwayugi feels like he’s taken off the shackles and can move on to better things but also knowing he’s tried his best. He arrived late at the drama wrap party so wasn’t snapped by the media but … Continue reading →
I haven’t read Cheese in the Trap webtoon so I can’t say whether the lead characters are less interesting than the second leads the way things played out in the live-action K-drama version that aired in 2016 on tvN. I do have a feeling that the second leads for the upcoming movie version may steal the show, for the drama … Continue reading →
