Character posters for SBS’s Sign
Question: If your two main characters are forensic doctors, why is one of them holding a camera in the drama poster? Here are the character posters for the new SBS drama Sign, in which Kim Ah-joong (with said camera) plays a forensic doctor who decides to make a (slight) career change after working in the... More »

Rain’s new blockbuster co-starring Shin Se-kyung
Just as his drama Runaway Plan B comes to a close, Rain has announced his new project, a blockbuster film called Red Muffler (a working title). His co-star? She’s not the A-list superstar one might expect to star opposite Rain, but up-and-comer Shin Se-kyung (Blue Salt, High Kick Through the Roof). Rain’s casting is finalized,... More »

Now Yoon is confirmed, as are the three star(let)s who have been cast alongside her in this reportedly humorous and witty project about the lives of 20-something women: Park Han-byul, who played a...

The man behind the Voice: Lee Seon-kyun interview
He’s The Voice, The “Shep,” the guy who makes hobo hair look like sexy bedhead, and angry yelling seem…kinda hot. Lee Seon-kyun (Petty Romance, Pasta, Coffee Prince) sits down with Joy News for an interview about his latest project, acting, and life after becoming a husband and father. His latest role is an adult manhwa... More »

Moon Chae-won interview: Becoming daddy’s girl
As I’d mentioned before, I’m finding the new SBS drama It’s Okay, Daddy’s Girl watchable and interesting despite a number of flaws that do, admittedly, hold it back from being as good as it could be. But I like the setup and responded strongly to the family relationships — and it doesn’t hurt that the... More »

Secret Garden: Episode 7
If Episode 6 was a fantastically zany, nonstop hour of insane body-swap antics, then Episode 7 is a dash of that mixed with more of an emotional element. Always welcome, in my book. Also: If the naming gets confusing, just remember: The name that it sounds like (Ra-Him = Ra-im) is the name of the... More »

Chun Jung-myung to take on his first sageuk?
Everyone’s favorite baby-faced man-boy Chun Jung-myung (Cinderella’s Sister, What’s Up Fox) is looking at his next project…a sageuk? Historical dramas aren’t his usual fare, but it’d be his first, so I’m all for uncharted waters. Thankfully, it’s a fusion sageuk, so there’s bound to be enough cheekiness to go around. The drama is MBC’s upcoming... More »

Joseon X-Files: Episode 11
Episodes 11 and 12 are really two parts of one story (as were Episodes 7 and 8 ) and aired on the same night, so I considered writing them up together. But I think there’s enough to talk about in this one alone, although I plan to have 12 up shortly so we can get... More »

A rain-soaked shoot for Sign
SBS’s medical-forensic-crime drama Sign is one that admittedly doesn’t capture my interest right now, but I think there’s the possibility for it to be better than I’m thinking. Until I remember that the writer also wrote Yoon Eun-hye’s flop My Fair Lady and Kim Sun-ah’s flop When Night Comes (and Hyun Bin’s Snow Queen). Even... More »
