My babies are back together again! I must’ve been good indeed to be rewarded by High Cut magazine sending Kim Soo Hyun and Suzy to New Zealand for an outdoorsy photoshoot. Kim Soo Hyun is riding high in his acting career after winning a Baeksang Best Actor award for The Moon that Embraces the Sun and his Summer ensemble caper … Continue reading →
When a drama I really loved finishes, I usually need a gradually weaning off of it. Such as rewatching choice scenes, and inevitably posting some more about it until I’m ready to put it to bed. So if you didn’t like Big, ignore me as usual unless you want to listen to me talk to myself (which might be amusing … Continue reading →
[Breaking news: I know which episode Kyung Joon’s body might wake up. It was in the news. I’ll hide the spoiler below the cut.] Following in the footsteps of Gong Yoo and Lee Min Jung‘s Me2Day chat two weeks ago with the fans of Big, the other two leads Suzy and Baek Sung Hyun held their own chat yesterday with … Continue reading →
Waiting for new episodes of Big is like a drip drip water torture, but good news is that KBS hasn’t been stingy in releasing information about the drama. Recently there has been lots of BTS stills released, and many of them show the actors hard at work studying the script of goofing off. The vibe is decidedly animated and happy, … Continue reading →
The more teasers and stills released by Big, the more it turns me into a kid in a candy store. Or a more apt analogy would be that it turns me into Tom Hanks in Big dancing on the floor sized piano strip on the floor of F.A.O. Schwartz. I revert back to being giggly and giddy, which is exactly … Continue reading →
You can give this to the Hong Sisters, they have yet to do a drama that flat out sucks. I’m iffy about half their projects, but its more along the lines that it doesn’t work for me cohesively, but I can see why others love it. Every time they announce a new project, I find myself intrigued and excited, even … Continue reading →
I know I’ve been bitching about Han Ga In in The Moon that Embraces the Sun, but it’s not because I don’t like her. I loved her in Bad Guy, and even in her crappy dramas and/or performances, I’ve never grown annoyed with her much. She’s like this really pretty slightly detached wallflower in those situations. I was a little … Continue reading →
I really do not follow awards shows, except to check out the fashion, because frankly it’s all pointless and mostly backdoor manuveuring at the end of the day. But I like them for pure entertainment purposes (pretty people, shiny things, me likey). MNET 20 is the only Summer awards show in Korea, intended to be nothing but a popularity contest … Continue reading →
This post is dedicated to my sister (my real one, not my kindred spirit drama sisters), who spent the past week calling me ostensibly to say hi each time, but really it was just an excuse to talk about Dream High. Which really was also an excuse for her to moon over Kim Soo Hyun. I don’t blame her, I … Continue reading →
Wow. I am really beginning to get into Dream High. The first two episodes were okay, competent at best (pretty to look at with stiff acting from the youngsters and a certain Yonsama), but didn’t really convey any heart and depth. It was glossy and slick, just one step above all style, no substance. But it was good enough, leaving … Continue reading →
