K-ent is making up for last year’s comparably lack of sizzle on the wedding front by already hitting Taiwan’s star wedding output from last year and we’re only halfway through 2017. This past weekend announcers Oh Sang Jin and Kim So Young got married in a star-studded Seoul hotel wedding, while way down South actress Yoon Jin Seo tied the … Continue reading →
If I were a betting man I would abstain from picking the winner of the upcoming Mon-Tues K-drama ratings battle. There are too many variables in the air and none of three contenders have a sure fire hook going for it.

Better that than stalking around my lair like an angry panther plotting how to end the writing career of the screenwriter for Hyde, Jekyll, Me so she never darkens the screen again with her so-called writing. It helps that Smelly Girl looked adorable from … Continue reading →
Woo hoo, the impending arrival of The Girl Who Sees Smells means that Hyde, Jekyll, Me is shuffling off to the great pasture in the shitty drama pasture in the sky.

It’s a sad state of affairs that Kang Ji Hwan is in the States and so close yet still so far away because I’ve no time to go stalk him. Boo hoo to that.
