Mr. Idol’s posters, stills, and teaser
It’s the era of the idol singer (seriously, Korea’s practically drowning in idols these days), so it’s only appropriate that we start making them the focus of dramas (see: Dream High and the upcoming and hopefully hilarious Vampire Idol) and movies like this one, Mr. Idol. The plot of Mr. Idol centers around a star-making... More »

Movie Review: Boy Meets Boy
Oodles of cute is all I have to say. This short film was just so charming I had to tell everyone about it. It’s from 2008, but the message it sends is still relevant today, especially in Korea. This is definitely a quick, fun, must-see film. It’s only 13 minutes long (16 minutes for the... More »

Jang Shin-young becomes Empress
There’s another cable drama to keep an eye on this fall: Empress stars Jang Shin-young (I Am Legend) and premieres a week from today on E Channel. The title doesn’t refer to a literal empress or some sort of fusion-fantasy imperial storyline (a la Goong or My Princess). It’s a revenge story of sorts, and... More »

Man of Honor begins shooting with Park Min-young
First shoots commenced with this scene of KBS melo-sports-romance drama Man of Honor, which stars Chun Jung-myung and Park Min-young. Funny how the “man” part of the title refers to heroine’s character rather than the hero; the Korean words used in the title happen to be a puntastic take on the leads’ names, Young-kwang (Honor,...

No Brain for Song Seung-heon
Okay, this is messed up. Upcoming KBS medical drama Brain ditched its original cast (Lee Sang-yoon and Yoon Seung-ah) for a chance to score big fish Song Seung-heon as the leading man… and in the end Song turned the project down and walked away, leaving the production with NO cast. Pfft. I hate to say... More »

The Musical: Episode 3
And the cute continues! And by “cute” I really mean Daniel Choi. Is it so much to ask for a refreshing and frank conversation about everyone’s relationships with everyone early in the series? Before people can start misunderstanding other people, and drive each other mad with assumptions. Park Ki Woong - thanks for not being an ass... More »
