The first teaser trailer is out for Time Slip Dr. Jin. It’s too fast and short to get much out of it – a bit hokey, but not flat out dreadful (so far). I dunno what to think, I think it wants to be more Queen In Hyun’s Man but might end up more Rooftop Prince. I laughed so hard … Continue reading →
While its direct competition A Gentleman’s Dignity just released its first teaser trailer, it feels like Time Slip Dr. Jin just started filming. With less than three weeks left until its premiere, the drama about a modern day surgeon who time travels back to the late Joseon era to practice his craft in less ideal circumstances interests me only because I love Song Seung Heon and Lee … Continue reading →
Ah, now this is complete. The first stills have leaked from the set of Time Slip Dr. Jin showing Lee Bum Soo in sageuk clothing, which completes the reveal of all the males leads. The new stills also include Song Seung Heon and Jaejoong in their sageuk clothes, and I continue to think they took suitably fitting in their period … Continue reading →
I”m sorry. The incongruity of a sageuk-dressed Song Seung Heon holding a stethoscope has me chortling with mirth. I think he looks puuuurfect in sageuk garb, minus the super cocky posture and head tilt. But I guess it makes sense since he’s supposed to be a super cocky surgeon from the modern times transported back to save Joseon era patients … Continue reading →
My love for Song Seung Heon is one of those truly inexplicable things, and one which I’m always glad is out in the open so I can endearingly mock him and gush about him without feeling like its some sort of guilty little secret. The first stills have been released for his upcoming time travel sageuk drama Time Slip Dr. … Continue reading →
Oh my freaking bejeebus! Before I get to the casting talk about Timeslip Dr. Jin, I have to first announce this new piece of information I gleaned. Apparently the good Dr. Jin will be written by two screenwriters, one of whom did Road No. 1, and the other did Spy Myung Wol. No, I am not joking and this is … Continue reading →
Well, well, well, this certainly slightly negates what I said not a day earlier about A Gentleman’s Dignity surely creaming Timeslip Dr. Jin when both premiere on May 26th. Today news broke that Lee Bum Soo has been cast in Timeslip, which pretty much means he’s the real second lead and Jaejoong is there for the pretty hot young thing … Continue reading →
That is the ratings question come this May. SBS has confirmed that its recently started filming Kim Eun Sook-penned super hot ahjusshis drama A Gentleman’s Dignity will be trying to recapture the success of Kim Eun Sook’s last drama Secret Garden by getting a weekend airing time slot. The PD will be Kim Eun Sook’s long time collaborator who worked … Continue reading →
Yay! My Heon oppa is coming back to the small screen. It’s been over a year since Song Seung Heon dropped a charming performance in the uneven My Princess, and surprisingly had marvelous chemistry with leading lady Kim Tae Hee. This time around he’s switching gears from rom-com to fantasy sageuk. He’s considering, and likely the casting is pretty much … Continue reading →
Almost a year after the premiere of My Princess, the breezy and cute drama reunited its main cast in Tokyo this past weekend for a concert event. Attending were leads Song Seung Heon and Kim Tae Hee, second lead Ryu Soo Young taking time out from his other gig on Ojakkyo Brothers, and Ki Kwang plus his BEAST mates. Everyone looks … Continue reading →
A bevy of top K-stars have been selected to model Cartier LOVE jewelry for this year’s Cartier Korea charity event, which has selected the International Vaccine Institute to receive a donation of a portion of Cartier’s proceeds from the December sales of its LOVE collection in Korea. I’m all for vaccinating children and even adults in high risk regions, plus … Continue reading →
OMG, I can’t even. Look at that picture above. No, you are not imagining things. Song Seung Heon, Kim Tae Hee, and Micky Yoochun are in fact dirtied up like West Virginia coal miners and holding a…….pizza board rather than a coal shovel. This entire concept endorsement is so LOLtastic I almost can’t squee over the fact that HeonHee have … Continue reading →
A day after KBS announced, to a shocked and stupefied cast and public, that it was firing pretty much the entire cast of its upcoming medical drama Brain because it felt the drama skewed too young with the twentysomethings KBS hired originally, Song Seung Heon has been confirmed as taking over the lead role of a neurosurgeon at a top-ranked … Continue reading →
