Eric shows his comic side behind the scenes of Poseidon
Cute! I was thinking that the upcoming maritime-police show Poseidon would be strictly high-action dramatic stuff, but perhaps there’s room for a dose of humor in there as well, based on these behind-the-scenes photos from the filming location. That’s something I’m quite okay with; Eric’s got a pretty good sense of comic timing, with a... More »

Secret Garden: Episode 3
SBS has had a number of dramas with truly beautiful cinematography in the past year — Bad Guy, Dr. Champ, Will It Snow For Christmas, Jejoongwon — and now we can add Secret Garden to that list. I’m really enjoying this drama based on story and acting alone — and Hyun Bin and Ha Ji-won’s... More »

Park Chan-wook’s Hollywood debut
Master of the psychologically disturbed dark thriller, director Park Chan-wook (Old Boy, Thirst) is poised to direct his first film in Hollywood, starring…Jodie Foster? I’m trying to wrap my head around Park Chan-wook directing Jodie Foster…hm…does anyone else think that if they remake Old Boy, they should make HER the star? And have him direct?... More »

Han Ga-in goes blonde for Bazaar
Actress Han Ga-in (Bad Guy) makes a drastic change for a photo shoot in Bazaar — she’s usually known for her pure, pretty image — by going for rumply blonde hair and a fashion style that can be described as woodland-nymph-meets-urban-fashionista-meets-couture-muse-meets-gothic-prairie-girl. Completely random looks, and yet, the photo shoot is a little bit ethereal and... More »

Dr. Champ: Episode 15
The picture above isn’t really a spoiler right? I mean, come on – they already kissed. I think it’s safe to say that I’m going to be sad about this drama ending. I truly enjoyed recapping this drama; I think “underdog” dramas are my thing… Once again, thanks very much to javabeans and girlfriday for... More »

Fanmade City Hunter posters are lookin’ good
Lee Min-ho’s drama City Hunter is still months away from premiering, but already fans are abuzz with anticipation and have taken to their Photoshop with fervor, creating some nifty-looking mock posters. Frankly they’re pretty damn good, much like the fanmade posters for Mary Stayed Out All Night, which I thought were even better than the... More »

Runaway: On the run for four more episodes?
Looks like Runaway: Plan B is gearing up for a possible extension, upping the episode count from 20, to 24. It’s somewhat surprising that KBS wants to extend, given that the ratings aren’t exactly where they’d like, for such a star-studded cast and big-budget production. But the middling ratings (hovering around 12.2% this week, TNS)... More »

Jeon Tae-soo for High Cut
Jeon Tae-soo has just come off his stint on Sungkyunkwan Scandal as resident eyeball-popping, deathbeam-glaring villain, Ha In-soo, and before he transitions into his next role, he decided to stop on by High Cut for what can only be described as…a strange idea, gone stranger. He looks like his noona Ha Ji-won dressed him up... More »
