Ten years is a long time, and the past decade has been good to the long running MBC variety show We Got Married. It’s spawned global editions and even was licensed to China for its own version, and through it all the original continues to generate buzz as onscreen couples come and go. Last year the hit SBS variety show … Continue reading →
I think the We Got Married franchise ought to have perfected its brand of dedicated fanservice romance by now. With nearly a decade of selling mostly well selected star couplings, the show has branched out in global cross border editions (memorable pairings like Taecyeon–Gui Gui or Puff Guo–Heechul), and has now been licensed to China for its own version. Season … Continue reading →
The production team of We Are In Love, the Chinese version of Korean variety show We Got Married, certainly has some casting clout. The first couple confirmed for the second season of the popular show are high profile popular Korean actress Song Ji Hyo with Taiwanese actor Bolin Chen. She’s an uber variety veteran thanks to Running Man while he’s … Continue reading →
Three Up and Three Down (三上三下) is the most apt description for the final celebrity casting of the C-version of popular Korean variety show We Got Married, as the earlier leaks got three right and three wrong. Titled We are in Love (or Let’s Fall in Love), the C-version is produced in full conjunction with the original MBC production team … Continue reading →
This so-called breaking dating news almost seems inevitable and bound to elicit angry fan reaction based on other recent developments, yet at the same time it’s still just two happy people dating which is never a bad thing. Tabloid fixture The Fact (formerly Sports Seoul) has just released photo evidence of resurgent popular K-actress Kim So Eun out on a late … Continue reading →
It’s much appreciated for the respective agencies of young Korean actors Lee Jong Seok and Kim Woo Bin to come out quickly with a response after news broke from the Chinese press that both were in talks to join the cast of the upcoming C-version of We Got Married. Jong Seok and Woo Bin’s reps basically said in much more … Continue reading →
I often wonder about serendipitous timing of news stories, either it’s mostly manufactured or conveniently timed, or else shit really does happens in twos and threes. Hot on the heels of the We Got Married brouhaha last week around the Song Jae Rim–Kim So Eun couple when she poured cold water on the fandom by nixed the possibility of any … Continue reading →
I’m super stoked for the arrival of We Got Married Global Edition season 2 with one of the couples being the highly likely to be hilarious together Kim Heechul of Super Junior and Puff Guo of Dream Girls. Of course they can swap war stories about being a member of a popular idol group, or they can borrow a page … Continue reading →
Thanks to the media savvy folks at MBC, the second season of We Got Married: Global Edition kicked off its filming on January 15th and immediately we get a first look at the interesting coupling of popular Korean boyband Super Junior member Kim Heechul and up-and-coming Taiwanese girl group Dream Girls member Puff Guo (Guo Xue Fu). The TW-media already … Continue reading →
Okay, this I gotta watch. Season 2 of the Global edition of Korean variety program We Got Married is about to kick off filming soon and the casting has just been leaked. I watched the first season purely for the hilarity and cuteness that was Taecyeon of 2PM and Gui Gui (Wu Ying Jie) and those two did not disappoint in … Continue reading →
I had my doubts about the so-called global edition of We Got Married, which felt like a desperate ratings grab for an aging Korean variety show to tap into a wider market after the domestic audience may be bored with it. But the casting of 2PM‘s Taecyeon with his lunky good nature and Gui Gui (Wu Ying Jie) with her … Continue reading →
Let me start off by getting the pink elephant in the room out of the way – I do not get Lee Hong Ki‘s hair. At all. No clue what the hell happened to him (zapped by lightning? got styling tips from No Min Woo circa the Full House 2 days?) or why he thought to leave the house looking … Continue reading →
Heck if this isn’t the perfect antidote to the recent spate of bad news and blergh drama offerings out of Korea – Taecyeon of 2PM and his international edition We Got Married bride Gui Gui (Wu Ying Jie) did a reverse of the marriage process last week as they filmed their wedding on Jeju island after they first filmed their honeymoon … Continue reading →
