47th Baeksang Arts Awards
by | May 26, 2011 | 195 Comments
It’s too bad that Hyun Bin was missing from the 47th Baeksang Arts Awards, since he and his drama picked up a bunch of awards. (Alas, there’s that whole mandatory military thing.) Not only did he grab a Daesang in the TV portion (film Daesang went to Lee Byung-heon for his thriller I Saw the... More »

by | May 9, 2011 | 89 Comments
Moon Geun-young celebrated her 25th birthday over the weekend (though she’d be counted as 24 by Western standards), which is receiving press attention for two reasons: (1) She sent her fans a birthday message via handwritten letter, and (2) top actress Go Hyun-jung sent her a birthday congratulations. Moon’s handwritten letter was posted to her... More »

by | May 1, 2011 | 58 Comments
Add actress Go Hyun-jung to the list of actors-turned-authors; the Daemul and Queen Seon-deok star has published a book of beauty secrets titled, appropriately enough, Go Hyun-jung’s Secrets. The book covers Go Hyun-jung’s everyday life in “documentary format,” which, uh, okay. (I suppose we can deduce that it means there are photos and short descriptions/essays/... More »

Go Hyun-jung glams it up for Elle
by | March 17, 2011 | 38 Comments
We’re used to seeing top actress Go Hyun-jung playing chic (Daemul) or relatable (What’s Up Fox?), but it’s not often we see her taking on that other K-dramaland staple, the femme fatale. The former beauty queen (Go was a Miss Korea runner-up) puts on the dramatic makeup and ruby-red lips for the April issue of... More »

2010 SBS Drama Awards
by | December 31, 2010 | 187 Comments
There are lots of awards handed out, for sure, but at least SBS has some strong shows this year, with great performances all around in the competition. Go Hyun-jung stacks up another Daesang for her turn as the first Korean female president in Daemul, which if I’m to go based on all the parodies, involved... More »

See the stars before they were stars
by | December 31, 2010 | 28 Comments
I love these types of shows: KBS has put together a special program, Top Star X-File, which digs up old photos and footage of current stars. Among those featured in the episode: Hyun Bin of the currently airing Secret Garden, Go Hyun-jung of the currently airing Daemul, Yoon Shi-yoon of this year’s hit Baker King... More »

Go Hyun-jung lines up her next project
by | November 28, 2010 | 28 Comments
It looks like the queen of the small screen is ready to rule the cineplex as well. A-lister Go Hyun-jung (Daemul, Queen Seon-deok) has lined up her next project: her first solo starring role in a film. Which isn’t to say she won’t have co-stars. But there won’t be anyone splitting top-billing with her, because... More »

From the president’s office in SBS’s Daemul
by | September 16, 2010 | 65 Comments
She may be president, but I’m thinking she looks more like a pageant princess. Or a prom queen. Let’s just say that I don’t think a pink evening gown and sparkly heels are perhaps the most dignified look for a nation’s first female president, even if she IS played by the awesome Go Hyun-jung. Accompanying... More »
