I don’t know if it’s intention or not but I definitely feel the horror-esque vibe of upcoming KBS drama Lovely Horribly.

For some reason Song Ji Hyo gives … Continue reading →
It may be freezing cold in many areas of the Northern Hemisphere, including the chilly climes of South Korea, so seeing Song Ji Hyo in her new spring fashion pictorial for Sisley is a welcome warm breeze. Even nicer is how cute and quirky these outfits are, I like them all except for the weird fashion style to wear socks … Continue reading →
Since I don’t follow K-pop the interest in the pan-Asian Mnet Asian Music Awards (MAMA) is solely on the attendee star power of many K-stars. The Hong Kong show last night was a total win for me on the actors and actresses who attended and their fashion choices. EVERYONE LOOKED GREAT!
