Weighing in on Secret Garden

Secret Garden is turning out to be very, very winning. The characters are interesting and layered, the dynamics funny and the premise engaging. I can’t say I’m hooked, but I AM committed to it already! Hyun Bin as Kim Joo-won, CEO of a department store I knew this guy has comic chops, but I’m still [...]

Secret Garden releases official posters

I’m not really excited about the idea of body swap in the upcoming weekend drama Secret Garden, and it’s described as a melodrama.. isn’t that taking itself too seriously? Buuut it’s got Hyun Bin and Ha Ji Won, who’re both looking good in the stills released. The drama which premieres November 13 has released its official posters (and the [...]

[Snap!] Jang Geun Seok, stop looking so misleading.

I wonder how that pose came about -.- Anw, I love how Moon Geun Young looks at the production press conference of Mary Stayed Out All Night. The dress is cute, and the shoes are a highlight! She even has a lovely healthy glow.    The drama airs next week, can’t wait!

My love-hate affair with Sungkyunkwan Scandal

I became inexplicably drawn to Sungkyunkwan Scandal from like episode 8, and it definitely has a lot to do with the awfully sexy and charismatic Yoo Ah In! Omg, that guy totally owns my heart now <3 It’s not like I don’t know that Sun-joon and Yoon-hee are the OTP and Sun-joon truly deserves her love and affection. (Not that [...]

These two deserve their own grand love

            Yoo Seung Ho ——— 1993-Aug-17            Shim Eun Kyung ——— 1994-May-31 Yoo Seung Ho should stop teaming up with noonas and romance someone his age (or younger) like one of my favourite teen stars Shim Eun Kyung xD Yoo has been taking on adult and main roles, while I can’t wait to see Shim Eun Kyung shine [...]

【Hairtalk】The kdrama heroine ways to wear your hair

The last (and first) Hairtalk post I did was on Barbie Hsu. Here’s a new one featuring Han Ga In, heroine of the currently airing Bad Guy. My hairstyle atm is partially influenced by her straight bangs hehe. On a side note, I love the soundtrack of this drama!

Kim Hyun Joong and Jung So Min will head Playful Kiss

I’ve pretty much calmed myself down by the time I write this, but surely the production didn’t just pair a newbie starlet who just had her screen debut alongside a singer-actor who’s still learning to emote?? I’m watching Bad Guy with some fast-forwarding… and Mo-nae just doesn’t command my attention (or perhaps I didn’t give the girl [...]
