Now for the heroine’s turn: Yoon Eun-hye sheds the little black minidress and heels and dresses way down for Lie To Me, where she sports some athleticwear and a messy ponytail to play her character Ah-jung. These particular stills come from a flashback to her days as a student preparing to take the civil service... More »

Lee Min-ho on location for City Hunter
Shoots for SBS’s upcoming City Hunter have taken its star, Lee Min-ho, overseas; he traveled abroad to Thailand last month, which is where most of these photos come from. The production hasn’t provided too many details about the plotline for the Thai shoots, so I’m just hoping that the furry, moppy thing that crawled on... More »

Upcoming drama Festival changes its title
…to… You’ve Fallen For Me [넌 내게 반했어]. Well, I like it, for starters a hell of a lot better than the bland original title Festival. The upcoming campus music drama starring You’re Beautiful‘s Park Shin-hye and Jung Yong-hwa went through an interesting process to get the name change, by asking fans to give their... More »

Kang Ji-hwan stills from Lie To Me
*Drool* (Maybe not that) Funny story: I recently reconnected with a cousin I’d only met once, a dozen years ago. Conversation was pleasant though stilted, as happens when kinship wars with time and distance to create that curious dissonance — are we close? Are we not? Should we cut the jondae and jump straight to... More »

What’s up, What’s Up?
Time to check in on several dramas-on-hold, although info is scarce: There’s been a noted lack of updates on the futures of What’s Up and Poseidon, which continue to languish in limbo. It doesn’t exactly bode well for their fates, especially considering that The Musical and Birdie Buddy are both in the same position, with... More »

Thorn Birds contemplates an extension
…but decides against it. I hadn’t even been aware that KBS’s Wednesday-Thursday melodrama Thorn Birds was contemplating an extension, but I’m not surprised that they’ve opted to stick to its original plan of 20 episodes, given its ratings performance. According to a source with the production, the series had been in talks to add four... More »

ATHENA: Episodes 19-20 (Final)
I love the shot above – so artistic and yet served a purpose in the storytelling. So let’s go down into the depths of hell together, and finish the series! I’d really like to thank those who stuck through with aberdeen_angus and me as we recapped this drama – all the way down to the... More »

The new KBS rom-com starring Jang Nara has released a few more stills; in them, Jang’s character is subject to the whims of her boss’s daughter and becomes... More »

Kim Myung-min starts filming Pace Maker
It’s nice to see Kim Myung-min lightening up again, considering how intense and emotionally draining his projects have been in recent years. (For instance, he played a minister who loses his faith in God when his daughter is kidnapped in The Demolished Man, and pushed his body to the limit while playing a dying man... More »
