K-thriller movie Phantom is based on the Chinese novel The Sound of the Wind which was adapted to a … Continue reading →

He plays a detective and she’s a hotel employee who goes back home to her family mansion when she hears that her sister has gone … Continue reading →
I’ve watched K-dramas for so many years I’m almost inured to how insanely good looking the actors are and many who have equal talent to boot as well. Recently two dramas had me doing double takes and marveling at how those actors really filled up the screen with their height in ways that captivated my attention more than before. I’ve … Continue reading →
Awwww, I loved this couple! At least as much as I could from afar as simply a fan and wishing for happy endings. K-actor Yoon Kye Sang and actress Honey Lee have broken up, confirmed by their agencies today after weathering earlier rumors of breakups which were denied. They have been dating for 7 years and it’s always low key, … Continue reading →
Apologies for the delayed post on jTBC drama Chocolate, a combination of my own impressions not yet fully formed until this week’s episodes 5-6 and also due to work travel. This is simply one sloooooooooow burn drama, and takes a long long time to really get going. Imagine a vintage vehicle that doesn’t show it’s incredible depth until you’ve left … Continue reading →
Cable network jTBC Mon-Tues rom-com Clean With Passion for Now is ending next week on February 4th right on lunar new year and all it’s done is inspire me to clean (good) without an inspiration to keeping watching the drama (bad). I watched up to episode 8 and then just paused due to inertia rather than proactive refusal to continue … Continue reading →
I’m going to give all the credit to young actress Kim Yoo Jung for the success of just premiered jTBC rom-com Clean With Passion For Now. She’s so effervescent and a fantastic actress in conveying any emotion that she’s the sun of this drama radiating all the charisma and light. No diss to the two male leads Yoon Kyun Sang … Continue reading →
It’s cuteness and surprising visual complementary looks for the first time with the two drama leads Yoon Kyun Sang and Kim Yoo Jung as they guest on the variety show Knowing Bros. They donned high school uniforms in the new kids transferring to class concept, with Kim Yoo Jung just a year out of high school herself but Yoon Kyun … Continue reading →
The lead casting for upcoming jTBC drama Clean With Passion For Now has garnered lots of opinions both positive and mostly negative, but this is an entire drama that has plenty of other cast members to round out the cleaning team at the center of the tale. Male lead Yoon Kyun Sang is an OCD neat freak who runs a … Continue reading →
It’s less than two weeks away for the premiere of jTBC webtoon adapted K-drama Clean With Passion For Now and after all the casting changes and commentary I’m just ready to see how it all turns out. A new batch of drama stills and BTS pics continue to showcase female lead Kim Yoo Jung as so adorable she’s a veritable … Continue reading →
Since the romance premise of Clean With Passion For Now has the opposites attract setup, perhaps it’s actually a fitting casting to pair up hulking Yoon Kyun Sang with petite Kim Yoo Jung giving us the visual disparity along with their personality extremes. He’s a clean freak and she’s cheerfully messy, and I sure hope it’s just that and not … Continue reading →
I’m surprised there’s such a strong opinion against Yoon Kyun Sang acting opposite Kim Yoo Jung in upcoming jTBC rom-com drama Clean With Passion For Now. My worry was that they wouldn’t match up well visually, she’s more cute and perky and he’s my image of broody and intense. But apparently some folks are upset at the 12 year age … Continue reading →
As a lifelong shoujo manga fan the poster for upcoming K-drama Clean With Passion For Now totally hits my squee spot. It’s a carbon copy of a cover from one of the manhwa chapters but the leads Yoon Kyun Sang and Kim Yoo Jung are nailing it (selling it) in the exact way I crave for a live-action adaptation. Don’t … Continue reading →
