So in one month I’m going to have a handsome demon to go along with my adorable dog, meaning the SBS drama My Demon premiering to join my current new love A Good Day to be a Dog. Both are fantasy tales with one conceit but with two leads I like/love and a whole lotta pretty visuals. My Demon is … Continue reading →
Gosh, I remember when I first got into K-dramas it was the visuals that hooked me more than the plots and characters because the industry really understood that a very handsome man and a very beautiful woman falling in love would be worth checking out even if the plot goes to pot. The downfall of the Hallyu drama is that … Continue reading →
K-dramas have been on a lull for me last month but I’m loving A Good Day to be a Dog (so silly and cute) and now I also have a date set for SBS fantasy romance My Demon with Kim Yoo Jung and Song Kang. SBS released the first teaser today and confirmed a November 24th premiere which seems still … Continue reading →
Kyaaaaaa I want this so badly! How did the drama gods read my subliminal mind and conjure this one up? K-ent is reporting that Kim Yoo Jung and Song Kang are in talks to pair up for a new fantasy romance K-drama titled My Demon. She’s a chaebol heiress and he’s the demon that’s lost his powers and saves her. … Continue reading →
The decision to put Song Kang and Kim Tae Ri as the dual covers for the upcoming Elle Korea special D-edition December 2022 pictorial is perplexing if you consider their talent level. But it makes sense because both are really popular in South Korea, her for delivering hit movies and dramas and him for being in so many drama hahaha. … Continue reading →
I think drama and movie successes are just the appetizers for stars to rake in the endorsement deals where the real bucks are made. It makes sense as ultimately entertainment is a commodity and viewers are also customers on the other end. This year in 2023 the male K-actor with the most endorsement deals is Kim Soo Hyun with 15, … Continue reading →
I’m glad I have some knowledge of K-pop because I know that groups have a Visual, i.e. the girl or guy who is the best looking but not the best at the actual singing/performing stuff. But in a group it’s fine because the others pick up the other elements, so when it comes to acting one can’t be a Visual … Continue reading →
So the order of the GIFs and pictures are in the ranking of how frequently K-netizens discuss wanting these two to work together. I can’t disagree with most dream pairings especially when the perfectly curated GIF delivers all the feels in mere seconds of a stitched together scene. To date, the most common wish is for Hyun Bin and Jeon … Continue reading →
I’m the type to get things done as early as possible especially things that are not fun but still need to get it over with. If I were a dude in South Korea I would enlist as early as possible but for entertainers it’s definitely a shot in the dark either way. Enlist early and start the arduous star road … Continue reading →
The announcement of the second and third seasons of horror thriller Sweet Home means Song Kang will continue his streak at Netflix‘s favorite South Korean son. It may seem inexplicable or anathema to the International viewers for why he’s so popular but so far he has many successes and even the less successful dramas the failure was not attributed to … Continue reading →
I think Sweet Home really kicked off the Netflix produced K-drama craze, it aired in December 2020 and we all know the explosion that happened in 2021. Sweet Home trended high on viewership when it aired and there was always talk of successive season(s) but while other later aired Netflix dramas got next season announcements sooner it’s now time for … Continue reading →
I knew it wasn’t just me that so many articles I write in the last year or so keep including the same stars frequently. A recent K-ent post (article click here) discusses what is going on right now – there are so many K-dramas in production due to the new popularity on Netflix, more streaming sites getting into producing their … Continue reading →
Much has been discussed about how K-actor Song Kang has become the It Boy the last two years and especially on Netflix where all his recent dramas have streamed. Agencies and production companies can push him for sure but it sure seems K-netizens are really warming/warmed to him. This week there was a new poll of K-netizens on the topic … Continue reading →
