The only drama Song Joong Ki did in 2011 was an extended cameo performance in Tree with Deep Roots, playing the younger version of King Sejong. His performance was so electrifying that it netted him an award at the year end SBS Drama Awards, which is just a pat on the back even if his was wholly deserving. He held … Continue reading →
Who wants more Song Joong Ki? Uh, that would be me and every other grabby lady out there. It’s alright, he has enough talent to go around. For the January 2012 edition of Ceci Magazine, Joong Ki goes grouchy, grumbly, and introspective. The movie Wolf Boy just started filming last week, and he and co-star Park Bo Young expressed their … Continue reading →
I spent last night with some adorable squealing friends who decided every third word would be Song Joong Ki. So guess who I woke up and thought of first thing in the morning. I blame you three! You know who you are, dongsaengs. Of course waking up with Song Joong Ki on my mind means I need to post about … Continue reading →
Hot on the heels of Kang Ji Hwan holding his Japanese fan meeting, Song Joong Ki was also there this past weekend holding a more intimate gathering with his fans in Tokyo. So intimate, he managed to shake hands with every single fan who attended. O__O So. Jealous. The Japanese fans get the best stuff, whilst we elsewhere suffer. Joong … Continue reading →
Song Joong Ki with a scarecrow? Who comes up with these random ideas anyway? This one comes courtesy of Vogue Korea, which decided that one of the hottest young stars in Korea needed to pose with a stick and some straw rather than, oh, maybe an animated person. I’d be good with a bromance concept with Yoo Ah In, or … Continue reading →
The arrival of the teaser trailer for the upcoming sageuk Tree with Deep Roots does mean that Protect the Boss will be ending soon. Strangely I’m not that sad about it. I think 16 eps is the perfect length to tell the PTB story, and it’s truly such a treasure of a rom-com I want to enjoy it as it’s … Continue reading →
After following Song Joong Ki‘s career since he managed to bring the cute in Triple against three incredibly hot men (Lee Jung Jae, Yoon Kye Sang, and Lee Seon Kyun), I’m always taken aback as to how high fashion his magazine shoots tends to be. I concede he looks much younger than his age, but it’s like the magazines go … Continue reading →
I absolutely refuse to believe that this man-boy is 27 years old. Either he’s won the perpetual youth lottery, or I just need Song Joong Ki to do one certifiable romantic leading man role before my mind can transition him over. Oddly, he’s a good decade older than Yoo Seung Ho, but they could pass for fraternal twins of the … Continue reading →
I really do not follow awards shows, except to check out the fashion, because frankly it’s all pointless and mostly backdoor manuveuring at the end of the day. But I like them for pure entertainment purposes (pretty people, shiny things, me likey). MNET 20 is the only Summer awards show in Korea, intended to be nothing but a popularity contest … Continue reading →
This is way too cute not to share. The Korean restaurant brand San Soo is promoting its line of mother’s-helper food stuffs, and who better to help sell to the omma than a trio of Korean actors with different types of appeal. San Soo rounded up Song Seung Heon (my oppa!), Yoon Sang Hyun (forever and always Tae Bong), and Song Joong … Continue reading →
I’ve heard another completely unsubstantiated casting rumor – that Song Joong Ki may be the lead for a Summer drama called Fly Again, which may be Yoon Eun Hye‘s next drama. She’s apparently unable to do Sweet Scandal since she’ll be busy with her movie publicity for the next month. If Fly Again becomes a reality, I think it may … Continue reading →
I wonder if Basic House did their research before hiring Moon Geun Young and Won Bin as their spokes couple for 2011. The reason I say this is because both have been selected by Sohu (China’s top search engine) for inclusion into their annual 50 Most Beautiful People of the World picks. In fact, only four Korean entertainers made it … Continue reading →
