by | August 10, 2010 | 135 Comments
The first stills of Playful Kiss gave us the bickering side to the main couple’s relationship, so now it’s time for some skinship! Well, almost skinship as the leads, Kim Hyun-joong and Jung So-min, tease us with this almost-kiss. I’ve said it before, but they do really look cute together. (I’m approaching the drama with...

Gah, and what ugly uniforms they are. Boys Before Flowers may have featured indecently short schoolgirl outfits more suited for adult-fun-times role playing, but at least they were cute. The three leads of Playful Kiss are featured in the August 6 broadcast of MBC’s Section TV Entertainment Report, which found the trio at the drama’s... More »

Bad Guy: Episode 13
by | July 30, 2010 | 40 Comments
These two should have their own show. They could have conversations about nothing and it would be funny. I’d watch that, seriously. Thirteen episodes in and I’m still marveling at the gorgeous look of this drama. There’s no doubt that the director puts as much care into the look of the show as he does... More »

First stills are out of MBC’s new trendy drama Playful Kiss, which recently began shooting with its leads, Kim Hyun-joong and Jung So-min.

Behind-the-scenes stills from Bad Guy
by | July 23, 2010 | 27 Comments
It’s a little odd to see “new” images of Kim Nam-gil come out because we know he just headed off for military service a week ago. But his drama Bad Guy is still on the air, so we’re still getting teases and promos. Plus, maybe because of the serious tone of the show, I particularly... More »

Well, she’s no Park Bo-young, but of all the possible names in contention to lead Playful Kiss, new actress Jung So-min is my favorite choice. It’s being reported that she is the final choice for the lead role opposite Kim Hyun-joong (and let’s hope that after all the hoopla surrounding casting rumors, this one finally... More »

Jung So-min’s marine girl shoot for In Style
by | June 29, 2010 | 19 Comments
I like this marine-themed shoot of Jung So-min in In Style, because not only is it pretty to look at, it could pretty much be taken from the set of her current drama Bad Guy. (If Bad Guy were a happy drama, that is, rather than a mystery thriller.) The first time we meet her... More »
