Jung Ryeo-won’s London shoot for In Style
Last one (for now), promise! Actress Jung Ryeo-won is featured in June’s issue of In Syle magazine, which was shot at a small estate on the outskirts of London and used the concept of the “romantic bohemian” for its photo spread. In the shoot (which I find totally gorgeous with its lush spring colors and... More »

Hyun Bin’s spread in Marie Claire’s June issue
Hyun Bin displays a different, fierce image in his new spread for the June issue of Marie Claire magazine (which is vaguely Jang Dong-gun-esque, isn’t it?). In the accompanying interview, Hyun Bin talked about his most recent acting project, Late Autumn, which was filmed wholly on location in Seattle with co-star Tang Wei. He said,... More »

Song Joong-ki in Elle magazine
This is the time of the month when the fashion mags release their teaser photos for the next month’s issues, which is why we’ve got a couple of them released at the same time. This one features Song Joong-ki, whose “pretty boy” concept goes literal (the term for pretty boy is directly translated “flower boy”)... More »

Coffee House: Page 1
I rarely have such a positive reaction to a drama after just one hour, but I’ll say it: I loved the first episode of Coffee House. More than I was expecting, in fact. I’d been keeping my expectations down — didn’t want to be disappointed again — which I was pretty successful in doing, mostly... More »

Cinderella’s Sister: Episode 13
Another emotion-packed episode, parts of which I loved and other parts which I did not love at all. Seems this is becoming a pattern for me with his drama — it’s like these two extremes are growing ever farther apart, so that the heart-wrenching parts of each episode are enough to bring a tear to...

Oh My Lady: Episode 16 (Final)
Ah, the end is here! I suspect this episode made most if not all fans very happy, as it tied up the plot in a light-hearted but satisfactory way that was in keeping with the tone of the drama. It’s too bad that things didn’t get really compelling until about Episode 10 (then stepped it... More »

Prosecutor Princess: Episode 14
I have one word to describe this episode: FRUSTRATING! It was frustrating on several levels, all of which I understood for the sake of Angst (who won’t go away) and for the sake of developing characters. But let’s also put it this way: I watched it with a fellow non-Korean drama addict, and I could... More »
