Jun Pyo and Jan Di (Jun Di), OR Ji Hoo and Jan Di (Ji Di)

 

Netizens are not only watching BBF, but are also visualising how the babies of Jun-pyo and Jan-di, and Ji-hoo and Jan-di will look like. Definitely see the resemblance there! Baby Jun Di has his dad’s signature curls and baby Ji Di has gold blond hair. Aww how cute!

Zeni Geba: Episode 1 Sneak

Frankly I only expected to perhaps catch a glimpse of this drama because of Kenichi Matsuyama… but alas! I fell in love with it about 10 minutes into the first episode. I’m quite sure this drama ain’t for everyone though. Zeni Geba loosely translated means ‘money crazy’, and it’s a rather dark drama about a guy who became “money crazy” after a traumatic childhood, though I’m not quite sure what its central message is yet.

Anw I’m hooked enough to want to share the love; hope you’ll be enticed to watch this drama! (:

Synopsis:

Gamagori Futaro (Kenichi Matsuyama) has been poor since the day he was born. As a child his recklessly wasteful and abusive father sunk the family into debt and disappeared, leaving Futaro and his sick mother to fend for themselves. With no money to pay for medical treatment for his ailing mother she eventually died.

Photo collage for East Of Eden

I believe for many of us, the show has been engaging to a large extent due to the marvellous performances of our 3 wonderfil female leads who totally steal the show!

 

Sneak preview on East of Eden

.. and my two-cent worth of opinions.

First let us look at the MV

GREAT MV. Since it has many hot juicy scenes of SONG SEUNG HEON.

It gives us an idea of the main conflict in the drama, although I have no idea what SSH was yelling his heart out about on top of the mountain. Apparently someone (obviously the troublemaker and seemingly the mother of one of thoes babies) switched two babies at birth. And seems like SSH’s character had an extremely painful childhood with his family murdered or sth.

Other than the coughintriguingcough plotline, what there really is to look forward to, IMHO, is solid acting from the star studded cast, an awesome soundtrack, loads of dramatic moments, three pretty female leads and lots of SONG SEUNG HEON. -gushes-

      

Speaking of the cast, I think i’ll find Han Ji Hye and Lee Yeon Hee much more appealing, though i have a hump the latter is not going to get the guy while the former is starring as his first love. That leaves us with Lee Da Hae, everyone’s favourite star from megahit My Girl and megaflop Robbers. Personally, Lee Da Hae does not appeal to me and her character in the drama (which is featured quite minimally in the MV but enough for me to form my first impression) does not attract me as well. Lee Yeon Hee is much more endearing to me.

Sorry to fans out there, but i don’t even know why Yun Jung Hoon is cast in this drama -.- I think they figured the show’s got enough attractions already. He has this strange affinity with SSH and Kwon Sang Woo, having replaced the former in Sad Sonata and is now working with him in his comeback drama. No matter what, he sure is a lucky guy. (I’m not saying it’s all luck okay. I’m not that unfair.)

All in all, EOE is definitely the next show to look forward to. I hope it really is as good as it is hyped to be, and create another korean hit. Stay tuned!

Behind Yoon Eun Hye’s glamour

                

I think Yoon Eun Hye is an actress who has worked very hard to come thus far. Her journey to stardom is almost like an inspirational life story for all the ugly ducklings out there. *winks*

             

            

Yoon debuted as a member of the popular girl group Baby V.O.X in 1999 at the tender age of 15. Although she became known as the “cute” one in the group, there were also criticisms of her weight.

        

Han Ga-in Weds again

For commercial’s sake.

Doesn’t she look lovely?

        

Painter of the Wind

Painter of the Wind, starring Korea’s little sister Moon Geun Young and veteran actor Park Shin Young, has commenced filming on 28th April. With that, we get to see Moon in her first role since entering university and also, her first role as a boy man.

         

        

If you can’t already tell, Moon plays a painter who disguises herself as a boy. Park Shin Yang is a master painter who is also her mentor.

(Gosh, PSY is almost old enough to be her father! And you want us to buy their romance?!)

Actresses sporting the short hairdo

       

If you’re the type who look up to stars for fashion tips you would have noticed the short hairstyle craze esp. in the Korea showbiz. Is it possible to have short hair without looking boyish? 

            

Boyish short – ‘cos short is in and long is out!

Boys before Flowers

                  

                 

                   

A brainstorming session for the Korean remake of ”Boys before Flowers” which I’m damn excited about since I absolutely loved the Taiwanese show Meteor Garden. =D
