Inclement weather did not stop the famous Korean actors and actresses slated to attend the 2010 final leg of MAMA (Mnet Asian Music Awards) to be held in Hong Kong. Song Joong Ki is the most prominent face as the host and also the top billing Hallyu star in the fold. He’s hosted before and actually is quite adept at … Continue reading →
I’m expecting the star power at the upcoming 2018 MAMA (Mnet Asia Music Awards) to be as high powered as previous years if not more. On the just announced hosts the awards organizers have just pulled off a simultaneous three-peat. Hosting the Korea portion will be 2018 drama It Boy Jung Hae In thanks to Pretty Noona Buys Me Food, … Continue reading →
This looks is so far out that I can’t believe a guy in real life is willingly doing it, and none other than top Hallyu star Song Joong Ki no less. With a floofy perm that is exactly a carbon copy of Darren Chen (Guan Hong) from playing the Hua Ze Lei (Rui) character in Meteor Garden 2018, Song Joong … Continue reading →
What happens when a beloved bastion of male visual perfection is tweaked to show us that even the worst hair fallacies cannot be overcome. C-ent is rolling in laughter over a recently released series of photoshops turning famous Korean and Chinese actors into bald comb over cringefests. I feel bad for men losing their hair but if that happens just … Continue reading →
I think if Song Joong Ki didn’t already do a drama with Song Hye Kyo then he’s actually my ideal pick for the character of the younger boyfriend in her upcoming drama Boyfriend which has cast Park Bo Gum. Whatever Song Joong Ki may be like in real life, and by all accounts he’s as conscientious, considerate, and nice as … Continue reading →
When the Korean drama flower boy trend started the early days it was Jung Woo Sung in the mid-90s and in the twenty years since that moniker has been attached to plenty of It Boys. I always felt one of the most apropos use was to describe K-actor Song Joong Ki and not in a pejorative all looks no talent … Continue reading →
It’s been 10 years since K-actor Song Joong Ki debuted and I can’t think of anything he could have done differently to achieve greater success than what he actually accomplished. It was both slow and steady without working nonstop, yet he reached the pinnacle of Hallyu fame and critical acclaim in a pretty short period of time. His agency Blossom … Continue reading →
This is a huge K-drama confirmed casting but the impact has been tempered by the three leads names bandied about for some time in connection with this project. Upcoming ancient history sageuk Asadal has locked down leads Song Joong Ki, Kim Ji Won, Jang Dong Gun, and Kim Ok Bin. The four will front what is arguably the biggest K-drama … Continue reading →
K-actor Song Joong Ki seems to be on a reunion binge, first with news that he’s doing sageuk drama Asadal working with his Tree With Deep Roots PD again, and now news that he’s been offered and is considering the male lead for upcoming science fiction space K-movie Lightning Ship by the director of A Werewolf Boy. While his last … Continue reading →
The casting for upcoming big budget sageuk Asadal is pulling out the stops and adding one more leading man to already confirmed Song Joong Ki. K-actor Jang Dong Gun is currently starring in the KBS adaptation of Suits and may be suiting up in period gear right after as he’s been offered the other leading man role in Asadal based … Continue reading →
The wait is over and it wasn’t even that long if you ask me. Coming off a mega pan-Asia drama hit like Descendants of the Sun, it’s not surprising Song Joong Ki hasn’t picked a drama for the last two years. I like to think he was also enjoying the real life romance with his DotS costar turned now wife … Continue reading →
It’s good to be K-actress Kim Ji Won this week as she has not just one high profile K-drama offer on her hands but is toggling two now. K-ent is reporting that Kim Ji Won has been offered the female lead for upcoming sageuk drama Asadal written by the production team of Tree with Deep Roots and Six Flying Dragons. … Continue reading →
