Myung-wol the Spy: Episode 5
Hee! How much do I love that so much subtext — and even some of the text — of this entire episode is sex? It’s treated with utter seriousness, which just makes it even gigglier for me, watching these grown people trying to strategize and maneuver this relationship in military/strategic terms. What a crackup. SONG... More »

Myung-wol the Spy: Episode 4
Such a fun, quirky series that mixes spy farce with rom-com elements. It has some lighthearted silly moments, treasure-hunting spy moments, but also characters with interesting mysterious layers. And the funny pretty much kills me. Tags: Eric, featured, Han Ye-seul, Jang Hee-jin, Lee Jin-wook, Myung-wol the Spy... More »

Myung-wol the Spy: Episode 3
What a hoot. I think I may end up loving this show. The first episode piqued my interest with the gorgeous visuals and offbeat vibe, the second had me busting a gut with its quirky humor, and the third? It stirred that sense of excitement, that feeling that I could feel love on the horizon.... More »

Myung-wol the Spy: Episode 2
This show is friggin’ hilarious. I love the sense of humor of it – it’s like a farce, but played straight, like a dark comedy. The North Korean stuff feels like Dr. Strangelove which is right on the money, and the setup is perfectly ridiculous, but totally engaging. It’s like half-war-comedy, half-screwball-romance, which is refreshingly... More »

Myung-wol the Spy: Episode 1
Myung-wol the Spy makes me giggle, for all the right reasons: It’s funny, it’s flashy, it looks good, and it’s entertaining. I was hoping for a deft directorial hand, and with the director of Sungkyunkwan Scandal behind the camera, Myung-wol has an assured, stylish air. It’s mindless fun in the sense that you can sit...

Character stills and posters for Myung-wol the Spy
Here’s a whole slew of official posters, character stills, and behind-the-scenes photos from romantic-spy-action-comedy Myung-wol the Spy, which premieres this week. I have to say, some of these look utterly ridiculous — I love it. My particular favorite is the poster of the leads on a motorcycle, dressed in wedding garb. It suits the drama’s... More »

Myung-wol the Spy heads overseas for shoots
More stills are out of rom-com Myung-wol the Spy, which is looking like it just may be the perfect fluffy summer romance. (I hope, at least.) And for some reason, the stills of Eric in particular make me giggle, though there’s nothing intrinsically funny about it. I just always enjoy when actors play versions of... More »

Myung-wol the Spy’s poster and promo stills
Poster shoots were recently held for upcoming quirky romance Myung-wol the Spy, and my first impression is to laugh, which is always a good thing in a comedy, no? It’s looking pretty cute, with Eric, playing Mr. Big Hallyu Supa-star, cowering as he clings to North Korean undercover spy Myung-wol Han Ye-seul. Bye-bye, Prince Charming... More »

And I have to say, I’m pretty impressed with the results; the characters seem well-developed and the cast looks strong. In the trailer, several students at... More »

46th Baeksang Arts Awards
The 46th Baeksang Arts Awards were held on March 26 in Seoul, which is one of the biggest awards ceremonies in the industry, in both television and film. Only, this year I’ve got to say my reaction at the winners was mostly: WTF, Baeksangs? Tags: awards, Choi Kang-hee, Daniel Choi, Go Hyun-jung, Ha Ji-won, Ha... More »
