My Princess: Episode 12
by | February 10, 2011 | 312 Comments
Our couple gets backed into a corner, and everyone comes over with a bad case of Noble Idiocy. Well, everyone who has a heart. But thankfully Hae-young’s got it bad enough to go princess hunting. Which of course sends everyone else on the hunt as well. Who needs wabbits when it’s open season on princesses?... More »

Hyun Bin, workin’ it in outerwear
by | February 10, 2011 | 109 Comments
I’m kind of sick to death of seeing Hyun Bin (Secret Garden) in every Korean news story ever, but this campaign for sports/outerwear line K2 just made me smile, because he’s WORKIN’ IT, like Tyra-Banks-style-fierce, and I don’t even know why. He looks good, of course. But the poses make me laugh. Like, what’s going... More »

Wang Ji-hye’s spread in Céci
by | February 10, 2011 | 34 Comments
I’m not usually a huge fan of Céci photo shoots (a lot of them are on the boring end of the spectrum), but I like these photos of Wang Ji-hye, the actress in KBS’s President, though I know her more as the love-to-hate-her In-hee (Bot) of Personal Taste, aka the girl who did not understand...

My Princess: Episode 11
by | February 9, 2011 | 293 Comments
There’s something that just really works about this couple, for me. She’s a little dense and he’s got a pretty large noble streak — though he hasn’t crossed over to the dark side of idiocy, yet — but together, they’re just so cute. The why-we-Should-Not-Be conflict is credible (and harks back to that inescapable point... More »

Kim Jae-won (My Love Patzzi, Hwang Jini) is just barely two weeks out of the military, but he’s already got a leading role lined up in a drama. Looks like someone’s eager to get back in the game. And I’m sure it’s not a moment too soon for fans who have waited two years. He’s... More »

Dream High: Episode 11

Get ready to have your hearts broken, people. See, this is what happens when you follow a girl to the big city. She stomps on your heart and you end up slinging drinks at a nightclub as you drink your sorrows away…wait, aren’t you a minor? So, the bar is just shorthand for Angst, and... More »

Yoo Ah-in models for Jack & Jill
by | February 8, 2011 | 119 Comments
It’s only ads for a clothing brand, but who am I to complain when it gives us more Yoo Ah-in? The scene-stealing Sungkyunkwan Scandal beast-man pretty-boy (can you be both? In his case, I say yes) traveled to New York last month to shoot his latest ads for casualwear brand Jack & Jill, a company... More »

Kim So-yeon makes her appearance in Athena
by | February 8, 2011 | 86 Comments
Finally! We’ve sure been waiting long enough for this day. The Goddess of War herself, Kim So-yeon, will be reprising her IRIS character for Athena on today’s Episode 17. Truthfully I’ve been lagging a bit behind on watching Athena, but I still contend that it’s better than IRIS, at least for me. Now if Kim... More »
