Nerdy sidekick Bong Tae-kyu cast in lead role
Quirky, geeky, constant-sidekick Bong Tae-kyu has been cast in his first leading role, in a film adaptation of Alice in Wonderland, called Alice. You might recognize him as the spineless friend-turned-thief in this year’s Personal Taste, where he borrowed against his friend Kae-in’s house and then ran away (whatever, Show). This time he’ll be playing... More »

My Girlfriend Is a Gumiho: Episode 6
It’s my favorite of all k-drama tropes: the fits-of-jealousy as a stand-in for early declarations of love. It’s angst, love, denial, and pettiness all rolled into one, and I for one, can’t get enough. The Green-Eyed Monster takes center stage this episode, and turns everyone right-side-up, then upside-down, providing hysterical laughter, adorable hijinks, and lots... More »

Song Joong-ki goes to camp with fan club
Song Joong-ki took time out of his jam-packed schedule to go on a 2-night, 3-day summer camp with his fan club last weekend. Song attended the camp with 130 members of his fan club, Ki Aile, and the candid pictures are as expected—super cute. Song’s buddy, comedic actor Kim Ki-bang (My Name is Kim Sam-soon,... More »

Kim Nam-gil’s last photoshoot, no really this time
I know I said it was his last photoshoot last time, but this time it’s really The Last. I think. Probably. Kim Nam-gil did a pre-army shoot for Ad Hoc, in which he models a ‘chic-casual’ look, sporting a vibe similar to his Bad Guy persona. Looks like his weeks before enlistment were busier than... More »

I Am Legend: The Musical?
Could SBS drama I Am Legend be turned into a musical? It looks like Legend‘s production company, A Story, is looking to produce a Mamma Mia-style musical, with pop-rock songs based on the drama. The drama is flying high right now with fan love and heaps of critical praise, not only for the acting and... More »

Invincible trailer and official poster
Upcoming gangster-action film Invincible [무적자], starring Song Seung-heon, Joo Jin-mo, Kim Kang-woo, and Jo Han-seon, has released its official poster and trailer. It looks cheesy, epic, and therefore awesome. The remake of 1986′s A Better Tomorrow (starring Chow Yun-fat) can’t possibly top the original, in my opinion. That film is the highlight of one of...

Lee Jun-ki’s photo exhibition
Actor Lee Jun-ki will be featured in a photo exhibit, as the subject of a series of photographs called Good & Bye, Boy by photographer Kim Jung-man. The title is delightfully nonsensical, and features photographs of Lee Jun-ki from his debut all the way to his enlistment this past May. It’s being held as an... More »

My Girlfriend Is a Gumiho: Episode 4
When a show is fast, clever, AND heartfelt, I’m owned, heart and soul. What can I say? I’m a sucker for the wimpy hero, and the super-powered girl who turns his life upside-down. There are so many great reversals—the powerful girl looking up at him like a wide-eyed child, her transformation into a monster frightening... More »

Playful Kiss casts newbie Yoon Seung-ah as best friend
It looks like Playful Kiss is looking to newbies for the supporting roles, which I’m a fan of, since it’s a high school drama and will benefit from some fresh faces. Relative newbie actress Yoon Seung-ah has been cast as the best friend, Min-ah, to Jung So-min‘s Ha-ni, and will be displaying a 4D (quirky,... More »

Yoon Eun-hye and Kim Hyun-joong in fall fashion
Kim Hyun-joong and Yoon Eun-hye in an adorable photoshoot for Basic House, featuring shirts from ManToMan in a campus-inspired couple look. This is the pair’s second shoot for Basic House, and this time they were more natural, and reportedly more at ease with each other in the shoot. Too cute for words. Via BNT News... More »
