1 Night 2 Days: Episode 326
How do you take an uproariously funny show about six adorable grown men acting like children, and up the cute factor? Give ‘em enormous teddy bears, that’s how! Add in some sneakiness, lying, backstabbing, and botched subterfuge, and we have the next generation in delivery racing. And while newbie Uhm Tae-woong is still pretty green... More »

Drama special Hair Show premieres Sunday
Tomorrow marks the premiere episode of a new Drama Special from KBS, a four-part miniseries about the ins and outs of a high-end salon, called Hair Show. Somehow I kept getting stuck on the title because I just expected it to be like a hair-rock musical or something, but it’s just a drama set in... More »

Kim Byul plays rock guitarist for new film
Kim Byul (Baby and Me) is one of those actresses I think ought to be working more, and getting more recognition, based on the sparks of potential she’s shown in her career thus far. Perhaps this new project will be her chance, as she’s landed the lead female role in a movie titled Dangerous Thrill,... More »

The Housemaid follow-up stars Kim Kang-woo
Okay, folks, I’ve got some bad news and some good news. First, the bad: Lee Jung-jae (Thieves) is no longer playing Mr. Housemaid as previously announced. The good: Kim Kang-woo (Story of a Man), whom I’d counted on seeing in Poseidon before that drama went into limbo, is now cast as the lead. This movie... More »

Royal Family gets an extension
Royal Family, the Wednesday-Thursday series starring Ji Sung and Yeom Jung-ah, has been granted a two-episode extension, raising its total episode count from 16 to 18. I’ve been hearing positive things about the show, despite my own disinterest in it (sorry, I just couldn’t), so it’s good news for the show — two episodes isn’t... More »

Sung Yuri transforms into a maid for Romance Town
I’m pretty sure I’ll find myself continuing to call Sung Yuri’s new drama Maids in my head, but I’ll have to get used to referring to it by its new title, the (sigh) rather lackluster Romance Town. (Some commenters suggested that perhaps the title sounds better by its Korean name, but alas, I can say... More »

Yoo Ah-in goes boy scout for High Cut
The newest baddest Bad Boy in town, Yoo Ah-in (Sungkyunkwan Scandal) poses for a playful shoot in High Cut, straight on the heels of his buddy Song Joong-ki‘s spread. I see what you’re doing, High Cut. Don’t think I’m gonna fall for your bait and spend my day watching Yeo-rim/Guh-ro MVs. I have willpower, you... More »

49 Days: Episode 8
Han Kang! Kang-aaaaah! Why so cute? You’re killing me with your I-was-gruff-at-sixteen thing. Your bewilderment at feeling feelings is the most adorable thing about this drama, which is saying somethin’, since I’m including Reaper Boy and his array of pouty faces. Oh, now they’re warring… Can’t. Choose. Just. One. Maybe they can have a shouting... More »

Stills from the first shoot of Best Love
Remember how I was wondering whether Gong Hyo-jin‘s star-with-a-bad-image character for Best Love had earned her bad rap by being a bitch, or if she was merely misunderstood? I think I’m going with bitch: Tags: Best Love, Gong Hyo-jin, Jung Jun-ha... More »
