jTBC must be thanking their lucky stars that the start of its promos for upcoming sports and police procedural drama Good Boy coincidences with the Paris Olympics, what with the leads all being Olympic gold medalists turned cops. The first drama stills are out showing Park Bo Gum in action and winning his boxing gold medal and also Kim So … Continue reading →
What perfect timing for jTBC to release its first still of upcoming sports and procedural drama Good Boy. It’s a drama revolving around medal winning retired South Korean Olympians who have become police officers and their intersecting stories. Park Bo Gum is a boxer and Kim So Hyun a sharpshooter so both have the athletic skills in the drama to … Continue reading →
I love a controversial take, it makes for good back and forth discussion. A news article this week in K-ent has a reporter doing a review of post military discharge Park Bo Gum and deemed him a disappointment. The ensemble movie Wonderland got bad reviews and low box office, and now his variety show My Name is Gabriel is also … Continue reading →
A recent article on the state of the South Korean box office reveals that it’s been a terrible first half of 2024 so far heading into the end of June. Other than award winning and box office success Exhuma that kicked off the year with a bang, it’s been one flop after another and even the usual big names that … Continue reading →
So it’s a Moon kinda night at the VIP movie premiere and afterparty for the star studded sci-fi movie Wonderland starring Tang Wei, Jung Yumi, Park Bo Gum, Suzy, and Choi Woo Shik. Many cast members from two hit dramas The Moon Embraces the Sun and Moonlight Drawn by Clouds were there together and it made for quite a picture … Continue reading →
Popular K-stars Park Bo Gum and Suzy have been the mood for the entire week. First they cohosted the 2024 Baeksang Arts Awards and now they are promoting the movie Wonderland together. It’s an ensemble with even bigger names than then but as the youngest of the cast they have their scenes together as a couple in their twenties dealing … Continue reading →
The 2024 Baeksang Arts Awards took place this Tuesday May 7th in Seoul and it was also the 60th year of the event so a milestone for sure. There is a lot to digest so let’s get to it! Moving took home the drama side Daesang and I knew that would happen when Best Drama went to My Dearest so … Continue reading →
The first promos for sci-fi movie Wonderland have been less than wonderous but having such a stacked cast still makes it worth checking out. The youngest leads are Park Bo Gum and Suzy who play a couple who meet again through an AI generated simulation. The movie is billed as dreamy and heartwarming, with Park Bo Gum able to generate … Continue reading →
It’s been a good streak of drama and movie successes for so many of my faves – Song Joong Ki with Vincenzo then Reborn Rich, Lee Do Hyun in The Glory, The Good Bad Mother, and now Exhuma, and of course Kim Soo Hyun with Queen of Tears. But soon it’s the time for the cutest of them all Park … Continue reading →
So Park Bo Gum is going from When Life Gives You Tangerines to Good Boy with a short break in filming in between. He wrapped the former drama with IU and next month will start filming the latter with Kim So Hyun. Both are slated to air in 2024, with Good Boy getting a definitive end of 2024 arrival. This … Continue reading →
It’s unfortunate that K-drama When Life Gives You Tangerines starring Park Bo Gum and IU is airing on Netflix because if it aired domestically on either television or cable there would be ratings to gauge how popular this drama is, and from what I can see this story is straight up catnip for South Korean tastes. The first look at … Continue reading →
I love the orangy colored backdrop for this announcement, feels so apropos and cheeky. Netflix announced that it will be airing the Jeju Island set K-drama When Life Gives You Tangerines (Korean title Thank You for Your Hard Work) this year in 2024. The drama stars IU and Park Bo Gum as the leads and will go through eras with … Continue reading →
I sure hope this script is banging because K-actor Park Bo Gum has taken the longest hiatus to come back after finishing military service and I hope his selections airing this year are worth it. His last drama was Record of Youth in 2020 and now we’re in 2024 already, but he has filmed Thank You for Your Hard Work … Continue reading →
