Housemaid to feature nude bed scene
As if I didn’t already have enough to intrigue me about the remake of The Housemaid: star Lee Jung-jae will apparently be featured in a nearly all-nude bed scene with his co-star Jeon Do-yeon, who plays the femme fatale housemaid character who comes between him and his perfect young bride (Seo Woo) in the psychological...

The Influence’s teaser poster and preview
The official poster has been released for “mystery digital blockbuster” The Influence, and my main question is: Considering that it stars one of Korea’s top A-listers (Lee Byung-heon) and the nation’s “Barbie doll” (Han Chae-young), that’s the best they could do?

Wish Upon a Star: Episode 12
(Awwww. And look at the little-boy slippers next to the grown-up ones!) A very good episode for Pal-gang, I thought. Is it strange to feel proud of fictional characters for making mature decisions and being levelheaded? That sounds like it ought to be boring stuff, but on the contrary, it’s really satisfying to watch her... More »
