My excitement keeps building for Uncontrollably Fond, the drama that is taking way to longer to arrive and will need to wait for more servings of Master: God of Noodles to wrap up. So far the teasers and stills have varied greatly in setting and tone, from bickering college days to intense emo adult tension, and now the third teaser … Continue reading →
This Friday night was the 2016 Baeksang Arts Awards in Seoul, with the brightest Korean television and film stars of the year gathered for glitz, glamour and peer recognition. Acclaimed movie director Lee Joon Ik took home the Film side Daesang for directing The Throne and Dong Ju while the Daesang on the television side didn’t go to a person but … Continue reading →
I’m already onboard with the OTP romance in KBS drama Uncontrollably Fond, all college days bickering and adult age unresolved tension. Sure, Kim Woo Bin seems like he’s playing Choi Young Do in Heirs a few notches grown up and a few levels below in wealth, the same in your face personality with a twinkle in his eye – that … Continue reading →
I’m super ambivalent about Suzy‘s look at the recent Carin fan signing event for the eyeglasses brand she reps. This time I can articulate the ambivalence – I don’t like the style of the outfit but like that Suzy wore it because it’s a different breath of fashion air. Suzy wore a pink off shoulder peasant shirt with wide legged … Continue reading →
The first drama teaser for Uncontrollably Fond played up the after between the leads Kim Woo Bin and Suzy‘s characters – there is underlying tension and unspoken emotions zinging between them as she conducts and interview as the PD towards his now big name star. This just released second teaser reveals a glimpse of the before, how the two met … Continue reading →
I was making nnnnnngggggg noises and grabbity hands at the screen all thanks to this unexpected new preview for upcoming KBS Wed-Thurs drama Uncontrollably Fond. It doesn’t arrive for another two months in early July as currently airing Master: God of Noodles is a longer run drama, so this new much too short but oh so good video preview is … Continue reading →
If this prime real estate on the side of KBS headquarters is any indication, the network is really really banking big on upcoming summer drama Uncontrollably Fond. It will be entertaining to watch the drama air in the dead muggy summer nights when nearly every expected scene shows the leads wrapped in coats, scarves and jackets, since the drama was … Continue reading →
Acting chemistry aside, Suzy does look good with any leading man by her side. Here she is sharing the latest selfie from the set of upcoming KBS drama Uncontrollably Fond, and whether it’s with leading man Kim Woo Bin or second leading man Im Joo Hwan there’s no worry about any visual mismatch. The drama wrapped filming a week ago … Continue reading →
The relative lull of the last few months will soon heat back up for Suzy once upcoming KBS drama Uncontrollably Fond with Kim Woo Bin airs this June. It’s so weird still to witness the extent of her popularity in Korea, moreso than talent alone merits, but then I like her so much that the expected blow back also seems … Continue reading →
It’s a wrap for the pre-produced KBS drama Uncontrollably Fond, following in the same production trajectory footsteps as current same network smash hit Descendants of the Sun. Uncontrollably Fond has been filming since late December and finished up this past week right as the spring starts descending in full. The two famous leads Kim Woo Bin and Suzy were snapped … Continue reading →
Details are coming together for my next most anticipated K-drama now that Descendants of the Sun has premiered. That would be Uncontrollably Fond, or Arbitrarily Fond as I’ve been calling it before but now will switch to Uncontrollably Fond as that’s the official English title KBS is going with. The drama is still filming with the main cast of Kim … Continue reading →
Suzy‘s two year reign as Korea’s favorite little sister star may have serious competition this year finally. 2016 dawns with the arrival of Girl’s Day‘s Hyeri, riding the success wave that is Answer Me 1988 along with her aegyo from last year, not to mention FNC Entertainment pushing AOA‘s Seolhyun like she’s a tasty vitamin treat and all of Korea needs … Continue reading →
It feels like KBS drama Arbitrarily Fond has been filming for quite a long time but it’s actually only been a few months. The transition from live-filming to pre-produced isn’t new to other drama countries but for K-dramas it still takes some getting used to in expecting teasers and stills and whatnot. Arbitrarily Fond would seem like the perfect drama … Continue reading →
