Movie Review: The Thieves
Some directors have made careers on the backs of making certain kinds of movies and Choi Dong-hoon is one such director.

Kim Hye-soo juggles 124 talents for God of the Workplace
Only a couple weeks till KBS’s God of the Workplace lifts its curtain, and from all the promo materials we’ve seen thus far, it looks like we can anticipate a light, upbeat workplace rom-com.

Kim Hye-soo considers TV role with Please Come Back, Miss Kim
Please Come Back, Miss Kim is the name of a new KBS drama in the works, and I can’t be the only one who hears that and immediately thinks of the 2006 drama Please Come Back, Miss Soon-ae, the body-swapping comedy starring Park Jin-hee.

2012 Blue Dragon Film Awards
The 2012 Blue Dragon Film Awards were held last night, and now it feels like we’ve entered awards season in earnest, following up on last month’s Grand Bell Awards. There were a few of the same names and titles, but on the whole, I’d say the Blue Dragons were much more in line with what... More »
