I won’t look a gift horse in the mouth though it’s really surprising to see tvN drop two previews for Vincenzo packed full of footage and different ones at that. It’s nearly 2 minutes worth of visuals and action with plenty for everyone. Song Joong Ki is the mafia lawyer turned South Korean lawless lawyer, and sorry if I’m borrowing … Continue reading →
I keep getting Lawless Lawyer vibes from the promos for Vincenzo, and both being from tvN and featured out-of-the-box lawyers perhaps that’s the reason. The promo visuals aren’t copying anything but the intense savvy male lead played by Song Joong Ki and the cool capable female lead by Jeon Yeo Bin just reminds me of that awesome OTP dynamic from … Continue reading →
I not only want this movie to be good I really hope it does well. Too bad we won’t ever know what type of traditional box office it would have brought in but if it starts trending on Netflix that will be good news enough. Sci-fi Korean movie Space Sweepers (Spaceship Victory) drops this weekend on Netflix worldwide, finally meeting … Continue reading →
Wowsers, everyone looks soooooo good in upcoming legal drama Vincenzo. Song Joong Ki of course gets the benefit of perfectly tailored likely Italian suits but his costars Jeon Yeo Bin and Taecyeon are also looking great in their own character ways. Jeon Yeo Bin plays a lawyer in South Korea and she’s channeling polished and pretty in her suits. I … Continue reading →
February 2021 is going to be sick in terms of how many K-dramas on my radar will drop, and across the board different genres. The legal thriller craving will be filled by tvN drama Vincenzo, or more shall I say my Song Joong Ki craving. It’s still bizarre that he hit it big with fluffy Descendants of the Sun when … Continue reading →
K-dramas have been so good to me for the past year, starting with Hyun Bin in Crash Landing on You I’ve been on a binge of dramas that entertained me. There was Kim Soo Hyun back in It’s Okay to Not be Okay, Lee Jun Ki sizzling with duality in Flower of Evil, watching cutie pie Park Bo Gum glow … Continue reading →
I’m glad Netflix isn’t hoarding finished projects and appears to have a deft hand in releasing new titles quickly. The sci-fi action flick Space Sweepers (Spaceship Victory) was stymied twice in attempted movie release in South Korea during the multiple COVID-19 spikes last year so the production practically went and sold the movie rights to streaming giant Netflix with hopefully … Continue reading →
Almost every one of my actor baes came back with a K-drama in 2020 but Song Joong Ki was one of the few who didn’t. But he’s primed on deck to be one of the first in 2021 as filming has commenced for early 2021 tvN drama Vincenzo. I don’t think the cast can travel to Italy for the overseas … Continue reading →
Aaaaahhhhh this feels nice, a sense of normalcy and nostalgia for how big this awards got in recent years and perhaps a nice slimming down to focus on just the core competencies. The 2020 MAMA (Mnet Asian Music Awards) went off this weekend with a huge red carpet and many stars walking it in person. This is foremost a music … Continue reading →
I’m all for shows to go on as long as it can be done safely, and this year South Korea has managed a dash more normalcy with adjusted events than other countries. The biggest music event of the year is always the Mnet Asian Music Awards (MAMA) which has been held overseas or in multiple venues on different days in … Continue reading →
It’s been a week of streaming platform news coupled with some long awaited movie release dates. On the Hollywood front, Wonder Woman 1984 is finally getting released on Christmas Day with simultaneous broadcast on HBO Max. Wish it was on Netflix lol because I pared away HBO a few years ago. On the Korean cinema side, big budget sci-fi movie … Continue reading →
Come one, come all, come get all your oppa and dongsaeng childhood pictures galore and marvel at how everyone grew up into the hotties we know today. It’s impossible to deny that many a K-actress got some surgical help to become the current day beauties so it’s safer to marvel at the men of South Korean entertainment that have parlayed … Continue reading →
This may be our first glimpse of what K-actor Song Joong Ki will look like in his upcoming K-drama Vincenzo. He’s smack in the filming right now and his agency History D&C released a batch of new stills for fans including a handwritten note on one picture where he sends his best wishes to his fans to stay warm during … Continue reading →
