Behind the scenes on the set of Athena
I love seeing happy pictures from a serious drama. These stills from the set of Athena: Goddess of War show the cast in a much lighter mood behind the scenes, when they’re not busy running around saving the world. I’m really enjoying the drama thus far, mostly because although it’s the same old spy stuff,... More »

Don’t count your chickens before they’ve hatched, but I will concede that My Princess is definitely faster out of the gate. It’s breezy, it’s charming, and…it’s So Purty. But also, I’m surprised by how cute they are. I mean, who knew—stick a Hand Towel in a comedy, and voila…personality! Tags: featured, Kim Tae-hee, My Princess,... More »

The race tightens even further between Sign, Princess
Yowsa, and I thought the race was tight yesterday, with only 0.2% separating the top two dramas. Thursday’s episode narrowed the gap even further, with Sign just barely hanging onto the lead by 0.1% — it pulled in a 17.7% over My Princess‘s 17.6%. What’s even more impressive is that both dramas rose from their... More »

A toast to kick off Chilling Romance
Here’s the first still from the upcoming movie Chilling Romance, which stars Sohn Ye-jin (Into the White Night) as a woman who gains the ability to see ghosts after an accident.
