The cast and crew held a press conference this week and confirmed that the drama will be split into two seasons, so the year end premiere is season 1 and season 2 will … Continue reading →
School bullying in South Korea has been discussed at length both in real life investigations and fictionalized often in dramas and movies to highlight the pervasive issue. Upcoming Netflix drama The Glory puts it front and center as female lead Song Hye Kyo plots a long revenge course solely due to her school bullying in high school days. The long … Continue reading →
I love EVERYTHING about this first promo for upcoming Netflix K-drama The Glory. It’s glorious, pun intended, in how the poster captivates and the teaser mesmerizes. The poster is a screenshot of the end scene of the teaser, which starts with an embroidery of a branch into a green high heel and branching out into entire entire tree with Song … Continue reading →
It’s celebration time for K-actress Song Hye Kyo who turned 41 years old last week on her November 22nd birthday. She posted pictures of what seems like a low key but lovely celebration complete with rose, a white character with ribbon frosting, and her beloved Bichon. She’s gearing up for the December 2022 premiere on Netflix of her next drama … Continue reading →
The best annuity is having one mega hit that basically pays dividends for the rest of life, and only few stars can enjoy lucking into that. The Hallyu era hit drama Winter Sonata is that drama for leads Bae Yong Joon and Choi Ji Woo, and over two decades later he’s still always on the list of favorite Korean actors … Continue reading →
I feel like there is so much going on in entertainment news these days that the Fall Fashion show season which is usually more prominent in news reports is getting below the fold treatment. But fans of stars in attendance definitely can enjoy their baes decked out and more than ever getting prime billing in the front row. K-actor Lee … Continue reading →

The Paris fashion shows are back this year in full force rather than the reduced events of the past two years during the height of the Pandemic era, and with it I feel like even more stars are in attendance to make up for the lost years.

There are top tier A-list actresses in South Korea that I feel will stay at that level forever regardless of occasional low rated dramas or low box office movies. Song Hye Kyo is one of that elite group and she’s so teflon with her image, I just see a very steady measured pace with her when she does stuff and … Continue reading →
Now that the underwhelming Now, We are Breaking Up has been broken up with for us viewers that stuck with it to the end, it’s time to look forward for Song Hye Kyo‘s next drama The Glory.

I found Song Hye Kyo‘s last drama Now, We are Breaking Up a real waste of the fashion industry. I don’t know if I was simply not feeling the fashions and plot lines but I felt the drama could have been set in any other industry and the same issues could apply. I also didn’t deliver the edgy trendy “high … Continue reading →
PD Lee Gil Bok has worked on many big K-dramas but only recently got to the head PD chair and I think he’s a formidable talent. He directed Romantic Doctor, Teacher Kim 2 and most recently Now, We are Breaking Up, the directing was one of the most consistent positives in that drama. He was interviewed after the drama wrapped … Continue reading →
