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 »

47th Baeksang Arts Awards

It’s too bad that Hyun Bin was missing from the 47th Baeksang Arts Awards, since he and his drama picked up a bunch of awards. (Alas, there’s that whole mandatory military thing.) Not only did he grab a Daesang in the TV portion (film Daesang went to Lee Byung-heon for his thriller I Saw the... More »

Moon’s handwritten letter was posted to her... More »

KBS just may have the longest winners list at the end-of-the-year award ceremony, but they do have the most programming. Not surprisingly, some of the big winners were expected names, like Baker King Kim Tak-gu, Cinderella’s Sister, and Chuno. The Grand Prize of the night went to Jang Hyuk, who beat out Choi Su-jong’s president... More »

Mary Stayed Out All Night: Episode 16 (Final)
by | December 28, 2010 | 247 Comments
Hurricane Mary, coming through! This drama goes out the same way it began…totally insane. But you know, by now it’d be even MORE schizophrenic if the drama did a total 180 and started to make sense. So it’s best we go out with as much crazy as we started with. It’s time to embrace the... More »

Mary Stayed Out All Night: Episode 15
by | December 27, 2010 | 239 Comments
This episode is all Mu-gyul. Unfortunately, it’s all Mu-gyul being petulant and mopey, which tends to put a damper on things. I’ve already lost my mind trying to follow the wacky logic of this drama, and the last episode pushed girlfriday over the edge. Which means… now it’s time for Mu-gyul to lose his hold... More »

What’s the going rate for what’s left of my marbles?   EPISODE 14 RECAP So…Mu-gyul gets KIDNAPPED. No, really. I was hoping that maybe I just had too much to drink and... More »

Mary Stayed Out All Night: Episode 13
by | December 20, 2010 | 211 Comments
It’s like this drama went from zero to eighty in the span of seconds — one moment, it’s spinning its wheels while remaining in the same place for ten episodes, and then suddenly wheels find purchase on the gravel and speed off into the distance, careening wildly because all that speed makes it hard to...

Mary Stayed Out All Night: Episode 12
by | December 15, 2010 | 265 Comments
Pro: The episode had some fluffy, light, funny beats, which I’ve been missing lately. Con: This show has LOST ITS MIND. The plot makes no sense at all. Pro: At least the nonsensical plot is moving? Con: But there’s no consistency to the characters! Pro: How ’bout that awesome taunting look on Jang Geun-seok’s face... More »
