Kim Tae Hee is having a very good August 2015, that’s for sure. Her new drama Yongpal with Joo Won is a major hit (relatively speaking in this day and age of depressed television ratings), and now she’s garnered another crown by being voted by K-netizens as the number 1 celebrity beauty in Korea in 2015. One can argue that … Continue reading →
This is news to me but apparently K-ent has long seen same age K-actresses Sung Yuri and Jang Nara are face-twins. Really? They’re both ridiculously pretty and don’t seem to age one whit from their late teen debut days, but for some reason I’m not seeing the resemblance much. With that said, Sung Yuri has been hosting the candid discussion … Continue reading →
It’s ladies dating week as K-ent gets a double dose of good news with its established leading actresses. Chae Rim, who has a successful career in both Korea and China, will be tying the knot with her Chinese actor boyfriend Gao Zi Qi. They first met on the set of the sprawling epic period 2012 C-drama Li’s Family Courtyard playing … Continue reading →
One would think Han Ji Hye would’ve learned her lesson by now and stay the heck away from weekend dramas where she singlehandedly set some sort of record for being slapped around in May Queen. But alas, she either has a developed a fondness for poor suffering abused heroines, or else the script for I Summon You, Gold (Call Forth Gold) … Continue reading →
Talk about a rather hard hitting display of star power for a cause that I’m not so sure is all that pressing. Don’t get me wrong, the world is filled with countless areas in need of aid and I’m always happy to see stars lend their fame to make a positive and tangible impact on societal needs. With that said, … Continue reading →
Sung Yuri has had a great first half of 2012. Her weekend drama Feast of the Gods was a modest success (any good, folks who’ve watch it?), and her movie Runway Cop with Kang Ji Hwan was similarly a modest box office success. She’s been sporting the same short bob for awhile now, and I hope she grows it out. … Continue reading →
Putting aside the LOL-tastic press conference for Runway Cop starring Kang Ji Hwan and Sung Yuri, this movie still looks equal parts silly and adorable. I like having the man lose the weight and undergo a makeover for a change, plus once he turns into a male model physique-wise he’s still a dorky cop on the inside. I don’t have … Continue reading →
The level of epic FAIL and sheer absurdity in the press conference by the cast of the upcoming comedy movie Runway Cop (Korean title Detective Cha) almost made me topple off my chair and snort inelegantly. It appears that the production held a mock runway show and had the male leads prance around in character (or pretending to be random … Continue reading →
Bwhahaha, you might need to make sure there is nothing remotely spillable within your near vicinity when you watch the just released first teaser for Kang Ji Hwan and Sung Yuri‘s upcoming movie Detective Cha. With a simple and truth-be-told already done before concept of an unattractive cop undergoing a makeover to go undercover (Miss. Congeniality, anyone?), the twist for … Continue reading →
Feast of the Gods with Sung Yuri and Joo Sang Wook released a second teaser this week, which was definitely more engaging than the first one, but for all the wrong reasons. Wow was it makjangy to the core, what with the suspenseful music, crying, screaming, yelling, and general aura of pain and frustration littered in a measly 30 seconds. … Continue reading →
The first teaser is out for the upcoming K-drama Feast of the Gods, which is flying so far under the radar it might as well declare itself undercover. The drama stars seasoned actors Sung Yuri, Joo Sang Wook, Lee Sang Woo, and Seo Hyun Jin, with the only synopsis available saying that it is about Korean cuisine. Since it’s a … Continue reading →
Early February sees the premiere of a new weekend drama on MBC called Feast of the Gods. Casting was finalized awhile ago, but the drama just started quietly releasing official promotional stills. The show will be partly filmed in Jeju, so the still above is of the lead Sung Yuri filming a melancholy scene on Jeju back in December. I’m … Continue reading →
Okay, why wasn’t I invited to this holiday party! Oh right. Because I am not part of King Kong Entertainment, one of the more well known agencies in Korea. For the late December edition of High Cut, the pretty and talented entertainers of the agency gathered together for a cheerful photoshoot. I mostly just recognize the always sultry Kim Suh … Continue reading →
