2011 KBS Drama Awards
Awards, awards, awards! And tons of pretty people. As with yesterday’s MBC Drama Awards, note that winners are decided in part due to popularity, in part due to ratings and politics. That said, I don’t think anyone will argue with their Daesang winner, Shin Ha-kyun (below), who has been tearing it up on Monday and... More »

The Princess’s Man: Series review
Epic, moving, suspenseful, and superbly paced. If I were limited to only a handful of words, that’s how I’d describe The Princess’s Man, KBS’s romantic melodrama and premium sageuk from earlier this summer. Then again, I’ve never been good with brevity and I do have an open-ended word count available, so let’s cut to the... More »

48th Grand Bell Awards
October 17 was the night of the 48th Grand Bell Awards (or, per its Korean name, Daejong Awards), and it was a big event for a few films in particular. And while the Joseon-era David-versus-Goliath action sageuk Bow: The Ultimate Weapon didn’t sweep the categories, it did take home a nice chunk of them. But... More »

Park Shi-hoo tweets from Bali
With their big drama The Princess’s Man now wrapped, stars Park Shi-hoo and Moon Chae-won are both jetting off to far-flung locales for some rest and relaxation. Park recently tweeted these photos from his Twitter account, announcing, “From Bali. I’m OK.” I guess it’s not entirely a vacation for him since he’d gone for a... More »

Bow, the Ultimate Weapon takes first place at the box office
This summer’s seen a number of strong films, at least box-office-performance-wise. (Sector 7, for instance, has been largely panned for its story but has been racking up the ticket sales. Others that have enjoyed solid numbers include explosion-laden Quick with Lee Min-ki, and the Korean War blockbuster The Front Line.) Joining those films is sageuk... More »

Romantic sageuk The Princess’s Man will be offering up a change of pace for Wednesdays and Thursdays when it takes over the slot vacated by the just-ended Romance Town this week. While that drama was lighter-spirited, this one will dial up the tragic romance and melodrama with its Romeo & Juliet premise. (The story: Two... More »

Teasers and more stills for The Princess’s Man
Looks like The Princess’s Man is really going for the epic romance angle, which is fitting given the whole Romeo & Juliet premise that the story’s built upon, starring Park Shi-hoo (Queen of Reversals) and Moon Chae-won (It’s Okay, Daddy’s Girl) as the Joseon-era version of the star-crossed lovers. Here are two teasers and more... More »

Cast stills from sageuk romance Princess’s Man
“Sageuk Romeo & Juliet” is the in-a-nutshell description of Princess’s Man, the upcoming KBS drama that stars Park Shi-hoo (Queen of Reversals) and Moon Chae-won (It’s Okay, Daddy’s Girl) as Joseon-era star-crossed lovers. The setup for their doomed romance: ambition over the throne, natch. It’s pretty much the basis of 99% of sageuk dramas, and... More »
