Coffee’s action-packed trailer and comic-inspired posters
by | February 3, 2012 | 47 Comments
Now THIS looks cool. The trailer and posters are out for the historical spy movie Coffee, which are totally different from what I was expecting, but in the best way — it’s historical action with a twist. And the character posters have a comic book feel that is totally different from what I thought this... More »

Kim So-yeon turns into barista-spy for historical thriller Coffee
by | January 21, 2012 | 47 Comments
Death by coffee. That seems to be the main idea behind spy-intrigue-historical-thriller film Coffee (phonetically Kabi, per the old word for the drink). Well, I’m sure there are worse ways to go. Said the coffee nut who named herself after the addiction. Above is the film’s newly released poster, which I find intriguing. It sets... More »

Javabeans Playlist #3: Actor edition
by | August 18, 2011 | 120 Comments
More songs! And this time, they’re sung by some of your favorite (or not) actors. This list is hardly comprehensive, and I picked mostly those actors who weren’t singers first. (And if they were, they are generally stars who are not known for their singing, despite their origins. See: Kim Kang-woo’s awesome beginnings as a... More »

Kim So-yeon for InStyle
by | March 30, 2011 | 110 Comments
My god, this woman is gorgeous no matter what she wears. Really, I think she could make a potato sack work on the red carpet. Kim So-yeon (Dr. Champ, IRIS) does a photo shoot for InStyle where she purportedly “transforms into a goddess.” Yeah, I’d say she already is one, no transformation needed. The concept... More »

Kim So-yeon to take on Coffee?
by | March 21, 2011 | 77 Comments
Will Kim So-yeon be filling the spot vacated by Lee Da-hae? It looks like the big-budget spy melodrama Coffee is finally getting back on its feet after some huge production delays. And uh…not to lead the parade or anything, but if I were casting a spytastic movie, historical or not, I’d have started by knocking... More »

Kim So-yeon makes her appearance in Athena
by | February 8, 2011 | 86 Comments
Finally! We’ve sure been waiting long enough for this day. The Goddess of War herself, Kim So-yeon, will be reprising her IRIS character for Athena on today’s Episode 17. Truthfully I’ve been lagging a bit behind on watching Athena, but I still contend that it’s better than IRIS, at least for me. Now if Kim... More »

Allure had the foresight to photograph a slew of actresses while they were getting ready for the end-of-year awards ceremonies, and they’ll be featured in an upcoming spread entitled “One Hour Before the Red Carpet.” I love moments like the one captured above, of Song Ji-hyo (Goong, Serious Crime Squad), which shows her goofy side,...

2010 SBS Drama Awards

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 »

What?! I loved this moment! Oh… The most beautiful (visually speaking – yes, I loved screencapping this one) drama of the year is about to end, and I’m as happy as a k-drama watcher can be, with a most satisfying ending after weeks of obsessing over such beloved characters. I’d like to thank you avid... More »

Dr. Champ: Episode 15

The picture above isn’t really a spoiler right? I mean, come on – they already kissed. I think it’s safe to say that I’m going to be sad about this drama ending. I truly enjoyed recapping this drama; I think “underdog” dramas are my thing… Once again, thanks very much to javabeans and girlfriday for... More »
