Myung-wol the Spy: Episode 1
Myung-wol the Spy makes me giggle, for all the right reasons: It’s funny, it’s flashy, it looks good, and it’s entertaining. I was hoping for a deft directorial hand, and with the director of Sungkyunkwan Scandal behind the camera, Myung-wol has an assured, stylish air. It’s mindless fun in the sense that you can sit...

Teasers and more stills for The Princess’s Man
Looks like The Princess’s Man is really going for the epic romance angle, which is fitting given the whole Romeo & Juliet premise that the story’s built upon, starring Park Shi-hoo (Queen of Reversals) and Moon Chae-won (It’s Okay, Daddy’s Girl) as the Joseon-era version of the star-crossed lovers. Here are two teasers and more... More »

1 Night 2 Days: Episode 341

The game gets upgraded with the addition of yet another catchphrase, so now they’re juggling three possible action/reaction scenarios. It’s just enough to be playable…barely. I swear, you can see the guys thinking... More »

Romance Town: Episode 17
The revenge is ON! This episode was way better because for one thing, there was far less crying, whining, and greediness going around. Everyone’s reached a somewhat secure and happy place. But some fortunes are still reversing, as the rich families of 1st Street are still suffering. On top of that, I call this episode... More »

Character stills and posters for Myung-wol the Spy
Here’s a whole slew of official posters, character stills, and behind-the-scenes photos from romantic-spy-action-comedy Myung-wol the Spy, which premieres this week. I have to say, some of these look utterly ridiculous — I love it. My particular favorite is the poster of the leads on a motorcycle, dressed in wedding garb. It suits the drama’s... More »

Park Jin-hee and Park Ji-yoon in Grape Candy
Park Jin-hee (Giant, The Woman Who Still Wants To Marry) and singer-actress Park Ji-yoon (Lie To Me) have been cast as the leads in a movie titled Grape Candy, whose tone is described as “mysterious and delicate.” There’s something about the description and the premise that reminds me of the dark indie film Bleak Night,...

Lee Jung-jin and Lee Min-jung in Wonderful Radio
Here’s our first look at Lee Jung-jin (Runaway Plan B) and Lee Min-jung (Midas) on the set of their upcoming romantic comedy film Wonderful Radio. I don’t know what’s going on with Lee Jung-jin’s hair there, but perhaps it’s a character quirk? If they’re trying to go for unkempt hair as a character statement, they... More »
