Miss Korea: Episodes 1-2
Miss Korea was the other new drama that premiered last week, and while I wouldn’t call it a straight romantic comedy (it’s a bit moody for that, though not in a bad way), it has some solid things going for it, like two charismatic leads and a backstory to keep their present-day connection crackling with...

Queen-maker and crew in Miss Korea’s promo posters
Posters are out for MBC’s upcoming drama Miss Korea, and mostly what I take away from them is: everybody pretty. The posters illustrate our rather straightforward premise of turning a regular woman into a beauty queen. What’s less clear to me is how this is supposed to be such a challenge when we’re talking about... More »

Miss Korea’s preview introduces its cast
This preview for MBC’s Miss Korea has zero dialogue, but still manages to deliver a pretty efficient intro to the show, which looks (I hope) easygoing and cute. At least, that’s what I expect of the writer-director duo who are reteaming for a third time after Pasta and Golden Time, Kwon Seok-jang and Seo Sook-hyang.... More »

Lee Seon-kyun goes back to high school for Miss Korea
Pwahaha. Lee Seon-kyun is playing HIS OWN high school character? I’m going to go ahead and assume that this makes his new drama Miss Korea a comedy then, because there’s nothing not funny about that. I love the man, but he looks like an ajusshi pretending to blend into a room full of high school... More »

Lee Seon-kyun to romance Miss Korea
Ha, well this PD-writer team is nothing if not consistent. The writer of Pasta and the director of Golden Time and Pasta are coming back with the new rom-com Miss Korea for MBC this winter, and they’ve called their favorite leading man Lee Seon-kyun up for a reunion tour. He’ll be joining Miss-Korea-to-be Lee Yeon-hee... More »

Jung Yumi and Lee Seon-kyun’s reunion in indie film Our Sunhi
It’s always nice when an indie movie has a good showing at the box office. Director Hong Sang-soo’s latest project Our Sunhi did well in its opening weekend, with over 13,000 tickets sold. Though the numbers pale in comparison to the blockbusters — of course movies like The Face Reader (already nearing 3 million tickets)... More »

Lee Seon-kyun takes action film To the Grave
There’s a new movie on the docket for Lee Seon-kyun (Golden Time, All About My Wife), which answers my question of Huh, where’s he been and is he finally trying to slow down and rest a little? (Conclusion: nope.) ‘Cause for a while there it seemed like he was on a tear, going from movie... More »

Lee Seon-kyun headlines new road variety show
What a fun idea. There’s a new variety show being developed for SBS called March [as in parade or processional, not the month], and it’s modeled after Ha Jung-woo’s road movie 577 Project. Very cool. The show is taking a different approach and casting one celebrity host for each new trip, who invites his/her friends... More »

Golden Time writer puts foot in mouth, insults cast
javabeans: So, did you read this news? *passes story along.* *waits for spit-take reaction.* girlfriday: *SPIT TAKE* javabeans: Because it’s crazy, right? To be the writer of a successful television drama (in this case, scriptwriter Choi Hee-ra of MBC’s medical series Golden Time), and then give an interview bashing all your stars and calling them...

Golden Time confirms three-episode extension
What the? I wrote about MBC’s Golden Time considering an extension yesterday, and figured they’d probably get that extra hour. But THREE more? How could you possibly be at Episode 19 of a 20-episode show, and at the last minute come up with enough material for three more? Yes, the show does move at a... More »

Golden Time ponders extension (dude, you have one episode left)
I think the headline sums it up pretty well. MBC’s Monday-Tuesday medical drama Golden Time just aired its 19th episode yesterday, which means that there’s only one more episode left in the initial plan. However, thanks to an episode being pre-empted due to the London Olympics last month, it got off-schedule, putting its finale episode... More »
