I’m sure the fan interest in top Korean star couple Son Ye Jin and Hyun Bin‘s real life wedding will die down soon, but NOT YET hahaha! Seriously, this couple’s nuptials definitely qualify for rubbernecking even if they weren’t famous, the dress was exquisite, the tux impeccable, the floral arrangements breathtaking, and the couple shooting exuding love and happiness from … Continue reading →
Of course a private wedding would have leaks hit the publications due to the happy couple being famous, and super duper famous at that so we see long lens and even drone shot pictures courtesy of tabloids. But I think Hyun Bin and Son Ye Jin expected it otherwise why have it outdoors, plus their attending friends and family are … Continue reading →

I wish there was more to jTBC Wed-Thurs drama Thirty Nine then just writing about its steady ratings. It’s got no buzz in K-ent and among K-netizens, and I know since I cover K-dramas and the buzzy ones are always trending high whether from raves or rants.

Holy hot cakes this is absolutely the wildest casting of 2022, and maybe of the last few years. When have I ever seen a male lead reunite with his female lead but then as the second male lead. Like, whut? K-ent is reporting that Jung Hae In will be joining the cast of K-drama Tree Dies on Their Feet, but … Continue reading →
So I haven’t started on jTBC Wed-Thurs drama Thirty Nine yet still, not because I don’t want to watch just have too much on my plate between Forecasting Love and Weather, Twenty Five, Twenty One, and now A Business Proposal. I also still need to binge All of Us are Dead and Juvenile Justice. But back to Thirty Nine, it … Continue reading →
At this point it’s safe to get into the water Thirty Nine. Okay okay, I’m teasing but sometimes I worry that I will watch a drama and have it fall apart quickly and ruin the vibe, Sisyphus: The Myth imma looking at you. I’m used to K-dramas falling apart at the end, that’s the norm rather than the exception, but … Continue reading →

Top stars and engaged couple Hyun Bin and Son Ye Jin announced earlier this month that they are tying the knot next month in March 2022, and their agencies confirmed it but said it would be a private wedding.

One of the ancillary positives of Crash Landing on You for me was the validation and also outfit feast of seeing K-actress Son Ye Jin showcase her visuals. That she could pull off any outfit the drama put her in, including actual North Korea looks from hair to clothes plus accessories proved the adage that goddesses can wear potato sacks … Continue reading →
An entertainment reporter at YTN wrote an article today (click here) that went into depth to discuss the first two episodes of just premiered jTBC drama Thirty Nine.
