Park Hae-il’s quirky Vogue photo shoot
Ha, adorable. Park Hae-il gets in touch with his inner goofball for this new Vogue Korea photo shoot, which just makes me smile. He looks like a big doofus, but also maybe the world’s best-dressed doofus. I have no idea why he’s waving around a fish or holding close a… turnip?… but damned if he... More »

Gong Hyo-jin and Park Hae-il in Aging Family
Teehee, this movie looks like a riot. I was already interested in Aging Family when they cast it chock full of actors I like, but the teaser is even funnier than expected. The new family comedy from director Song Hae-sung (A Better Tomorrow, Maundy Thursday) is about three grown-up kids who are each a wreck... More »

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 »

Gong Hyo-jin and Park Hae-il headline new film
Oooh, Park Hae-il (Bow, The Ultimate Weapon) and Gong Hyo-jin (Love Fiction, 577 Project) together? Color me interested. Too bad it’s not a romantic pairing though; it’s a brother-sister duo for this project. They’ve signed on to headline a new movie called Aging Family, about a trio of grown children who return home to their... More »

Movie Review: Bow, the Ultimate Weapon
There’s no time like summer for blockbuster action flicks, and this past summer was no exception. Among big-budget films like Sector 7 and The Front Line, sageuk action thriller Bow, the Ultimate Weapon (also titled War of the Arrows) reigned supreme in domestic box office sales and performed solidly at awards ceremonies. Lead actor Park... 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 »

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 »

Moon Chae-won cast in sageuk action film
Moon Chae-won fans, never fear: She’s been cast in a new movie, which should (hopefully) expand on her repertoire a bit with its action-sageuk focus. The project is Bow: Ultimate Weapon (as in, bow and arrow), a historical piece taking place in the Joseon era boasting a reportedly fresh story and strong script. In addition... More »
