Tamra the Island: Episode 14
And if we thought last episode was enough angst for us, it seems it isn’t. As Tamra speeds towards the (imposed) finale, there is a lot of ground (and emotions) to cover. Luckily, however, the necessary plot developments aren’t getting in the way of two of this show’s biggest strengths: character and relationships. The characters... More »

More from Yoo Ah-in’s Esquire shoot
If yesterday’s Yoo Ah-in post taught us anything, it’s that we cannot be trusted to formulate coherent thoughts or carry on lucid discussion when in the presence of adorable new Yoo Ah-in photo shoots. Which I suspect bothers nobody, myself included. On the other hand, can we all handle TWO such instances, back-to-back like this?... More »

Hyun Bin gets a makeover for Cosmo
…And girlfriday dies. I mean, I pretty much like him in everything but those sparkly tracksuits (although the comedy factor is really undeniable), but hot damn if he isn’t looking ESPECIALLY awesome here. Can he please have this hair every day? And can I please help make it tousled, just so? Hyun Bin is blazing... More »

Kang Dong-won sneaks in to basic training
It wasn’t a secret that Kang Dong-won was planning to report for mandatory military service this month, but he did go out of his way to make his enlistment as quiet as possible on November 18. That means that Kang bypassed the usual fan and press sendoff — which is generally a star’s last chance... More »

Tamra the Island: Episode 13
Hello angst. From the opening argument to the final tear, there is a lot of tension (and plot development) in episode 13. After our lovely reprieve in the previous episode, things for our characters are getting kind of awful. But Tamra does angst so amazingly well that I still love this episode. Tags: featured, Hwang...

Yoo Ah-in models for HAZZYS
I suppose I should TRY to find something useful to say here, even though it is a Yoo Ah-in picture post, which means much squealing in glee is sure to ensue. (Not that I blame ya.) The first four photos come from the newest spread for clothing brand HAZZYS, in which everyone’s favorite Crazy Horse... More »

Kim Min-joon takes villain’s role in Blue Salt
With the addition of Kim Min-joon (Friend, Our Legend), upcoming thriller film Blue Salt has its villain — or at least another one, given that lead actress Shin Se-kyung is playing an assassin. Though I suspect she will not quite be a villainess; her character does approach the retired mob boss played by Song Kang-ho... More »

Moon Chae-won sheds tears for Daddy’s Girl poster
Wait, I thought this drama was supposed to be… cheery? Here are the two official posters for SBS’s new drama It’s Okay, Daddy’s Girl, starring Moon Chae-won as a spoiled daughter who gets a rude awakening that kick-starts her maturation. I’m anticipating that the drama will feature some tears at the outset when Moon’s father... More »
