Kim Hyo-jin in Harper’s Bazaar
You’ve probably noticed that it’s that time of month again, when fashion rags tease their upcoming issues with previews of celebrity photo spreads. This one features actress Kim Hyo-jin (Mary Stayed Out All Night) in the April issue of Harper’s Bazaar, which is centered around the theme “intelligent and sexy.” If by intelligent you mean...

Jo Hyun-jae rockin’ the manliner in Céci
Here’s the last guy I would’ve pegged for doing a photo shoot involving manliner and baby-pink jeans. But how CUTE is he? 49 Days‘ resident gruffypants Jo Hyun-jae steps outside his usual image for a shoot in April’s issue of Céci. I like everything except that hat, which is something in the family of stripper-cop-meets-drag-queen.... More »

Allure’s shoot with the cast of The Duo
Here are a few pretty shots released from the currently airing action-sageuk drama The Duo, whose three lead stars are featured in character for April’s Allure Korea magazine. Above, Chun Jung-myung poses as his born-rich-raised-poor character Chun-dong, who, despite his obvious adorableness as a baby-faced cutie, is reportedly not performing so well in his first... More »

49 Days: Episode 4
I like it when the heroine is someone with a lot of growing to do, and not just makeover-style, but real character growth. Ji-hyun is such an interesting heroine because although she’s naïve and dumb and really quite off in her own princess land, she’s also very open and trusting and sweet. She sort of... More »

Ratings race tightens for midweek dramas
Royal Family In the current Wednesday-Thursday ratings game, there’s no runaway winner, with all three dramas within five percentage points of each other. Not a super-exciting three-way battle, but at least there’s no huge flop. (Flops are always slightly painful to witness, yet also fascinating at the same time. It’s like the rubbernecking syndrome.) But... More »

Sunwoo Sun quits Crime Squad
Sunwoo Sun has announced that she’s dropping out of KBS’ current Monday-Tuesday cop procedural Crime Squad, reportedly due to some problems between the producers and her agency. Okay, I don’t want to be all lemons-out-of-lemonade about this if she’s being ousted for a bad reason, but I’m actually glad she’s being written out. I don’t... More »

Kim Bum being adorable in GQ
Yeeeeaaaahhh… I don’t have much to say about Kim Bum‘s “dandy guy” shoot for GQ Korea, other than he’s adorable. But it’s Kim Bum, so what else is new? The guy’s practically built his recent career on simultaneously looking boyish AND all grown-up. (The “grown up” part is a relative distinction; compare him now to,... More »

49 Days: Episode 3
I do love me some disgruntled Scheduler, but coming in at a close second is disgruntled Kang — or, to be more accurate, the trying-so-hard- to-be-disgruntled- but-failing-to-hide-his- marshmallow-interior Kang. There’s something irresistible about the two of them, both revealing soft spots that are more and more evident the longer Ji-hyun runs in circles around them,... More »
