Myung-wol the Spy: Episode 8
by | August 2, 2011 | 183 Comments
Twists, feelings, and fisticuffs! And yes, that look on Kang-woo’s face is the very first time he’s awed by someone’s beauty… other than his own. I may have squealed out loud on more than one occasion in this insanely hilarious episode, but I swear, it had nothing to do with the shower scene. Scout’s honor.... More »

Sneak peek at Jeon Do-yeon’s Countdown
by | August 2, 2011 | 43 Comments
So there are a lot of big movies coming this fall, but this is one that I’ve been eagerly anticipating, and the trailer does not disappoint. Countdown looks slick, sexy, and badass. Just a straight-up con job with two awesome actors? What’s not to love about that? Jeon Do-yeon (The Housemaid) stars as a mysterious... More »

by | July 31, 2011 | 42 Comments
Actress Park Shi-yeon (Coffee House) will be making her big screen comeback early next year opposite Park Hee-soon (A Barefoot Dream) in a thriller sex comedy (How’s that for a genre mashup?) called Scent of a Woman. Yeah, someone should tell them there’s a drama around with the same name. Wouldn’t that be your first... More »

Eric v. Kang-woo, the twitter wars
by | July 28, 2011 | 120 Comments
Wherein Eric argues with self. Because why not, really? Eric is one of those stars known for being off-the-wall (he’s pretty infamous for being a 4-D Hallyu star), and it seems he’s outdone himself this time, creating a twitter account for his Myung-wol the Spy character Kang-woo, and then tweeting back and forth as Eric...

City Hunter: Episode 19

Not like you didn’t own me before, Show, but this finale-lead-in? Kicks so much ass. I honestly didn’t think City Hunter was going to go out as strong as it came in, but I’m happy to be wrong. So giddy. I knew my love was not for naught. Tags: City Hunter, featured, Lee Jun-hyuk, Lee... More »

by | July 27, 2011 | 100 Comments
Actress Park Min-young is still on the set of her current drama City Hunter, but she’s already been cast in her next project. (By the by, doesn’t Park Min-young always star in the crack drama of the year, two years running? That’s some thunder. Perhaps she’ll be three for three before the year is even... More »

Myung-wol the Spy: Episode 6
by | July 26, 2011 | 181 Comments
So Myung-wol finally feels feelings… which make her run away… which makes Kang-woo give chase… which makes Ryu jealous… which makes me one happy camper. I love that the only time something as classic as playing hard-to-get works for Myung-wol is when she isn’t TRYING to play the game. Also if Kang-woo were any cuter,... More »

Victory! Who knew a terminal illness could be so freeing? Never thought I’d say those words, but as it turns out, sometimes finding out that you’re going to die is just the thing you need to start living.
