Yoon Eun Hye gets crafty
Perhaps looking to follow in the footsteps of fellow actors Jung Ryeo Won and Park Jiyoon, actress Yoon Eun Hye has expressed a desire to put together her own exhibition of photos and drawings. Another case of a spoiled star indulging a vanity project? Well maybe, but maybe not. Yoon Eun Hye’s rather well-known for... More »

News bites: January 14
Park Jin Hee juggles two handsome leading men (Jo Han Seon and Lee Ki Woo) in her upcoming romantic comedy, Time of Memory and Loss.

You haven’t made it till you’ve got anti-fans
I’d like to sit down for coffee and girlchat with actress Moon Sori. Or knock back a pint of beer, since she seems cool like that.

No celebrity good deed goes unpunished
Actress and bone marrow donor Choi Kang Hee Alls I’s gotta say is: Anti-fan culture is ridiculous. Even supposing a celebrity donates money or performs an act of charity purely for the attention, the bottom line is that worthy causes are benefited.

Fat or skinny, it’s hard catching a break
I commiserate with Kim Mi Ryeo. At first, I was annoyed with all the news she was garnering — for her weight loss, for her crying on television, for her leap from actor to singer to actor — but now I just feel kinda sorry for her. She’s one of those stars who probably has... More »
