Cha Seung-won in Best Love
Finally, it’s Cha Seung-won’s turn for the spotlight for his new drama, Best Love, the Hong sisters project that stars him as a famous actor. He’s still sporting the facial hair (sigh), but it’s a much tidier version than the look he wore for Athena, which practically had a lifeforce of its own. Cha’s character... More »

Romance Town’s Sung Yuri goes back to high school
Sung Yuri may be 30 years old, but she jumps back about a decade in these stills, dressed in a high school uniform to play the teenage version of her Soon-geum character in Romance Town. I’d say she looks fine as a student…if only the boy cast as her classmate didn’t look like he hasn’t... More »

1 Night 2 Days: Episode 327
This episode continues the island trip following the teddy-bear race, wherein the boys settle down for a relaxing night of comfort…NOT. Here, the guys hang their prides and their appetites on their cooking abilities, or, as the case may be, a conspicuous lack thereof. It occurs to me that if 1N2D were filmed any more... More »

Park Ye-jin and Kim Suro reunite for Mr. Idol
Park Ye-jin (My Princess) has begun filming the role that Park Shi-yeon left behind, in the idol music industry film that was formerly titled Happy Together, now called Mr. Idol. Can’t say I love the title change, as it sounds more like a male model calendar contest than a film about idol stars, but at... More »

ATHENA: Episode 18
Mutiny!! Kinda. Sorta. I thoroughly enjoyed Sean Richard’s slo-mo action scene, despite it lasting only a few seconds. Hey – seeing him in action makes my day; at least he’s not just standing around and shooting. I gotta find the small things to humor me. *Shrug* Tags: Athena, Cha Seung-won, Choi Siwon, featured, Jung Woo-sung,... More »

The Musical still hanging in production limbo
So, what’s the deal with The Musical? Well, the drama’s future is still unclear as its fate hangs in limbo, but it’s frankly not looking too good. Already the show about musical actors, producers, and songwriters has had some rough beginnings, with its inability to secure a time on a broadcaster’s schedule last year, after... More »
