I Love Lee Tae-ri: Episode 1
by | July 31, 2012 | 92 Comments
Woah, I’m shocked too. An extremely cute opening for I Love Lee Tae-ri who under the guise of some silly hijinks asks us some poignant questions. What if the little boy who we dismiss as a child is very much a man already? And what if that woman who desperately faces the world with an... More »

Boys becoming men overnight: the new drama trend
by | April 4, 2012 | 105 Comments
Huh. There’s a new fantasy-romance drama on the horizon, and it’s about a teenage boy who suddenly turns into a 30-year-old adult—and it’s NOT Big, the drama that’s courting Gong Yoo and Lee Min-jung and written by the Hong sisters that’s also about a teenager turning into an adult overnight. This one is titled I... More »

by | October 6, 2011 | 159 Comments
The 16th Busan International Film Festival opened on October 6, and the red carpet to the opening screening — So Ji-sub and Han Hyo-joo’s tragic romance Only You — was awash with stars. (For those of you used to seeing the festival called PIFF, it recently changed its spelling. The festival is in its 16th... More »

Mr. Idol’s posters, stills, and teaser
by | September 25, 2011 | 62 Comments
It’s the era of the idol singer (seriously, Korea’s practically drowning in idols these days), so it’s only appropriate that we start making them the focus of dramas (see: Dream High and the upcoming and hopefully hilarious Vampire Idol) and movies like this one, Mr. Idol. The plot of Mr. Idol centers around a star-making... More »

Park Ye-jin and Kim Suro reunite for Mr. Idol
by | April 11, 2011 | 36 Comments
Park Ye-jin (My Princess) has begun filming the role that Park Shi-yeon left behind, in the idol music industry film that was formerly titled Happy Together, now called Mr. Idol. Can’t say I love the title change, as it sounds more like a male model calendar contest than a film about idol stars, but at... More »

My Princess: Episode 16 (Final)
by | February 24, 2011 | 324 Comments
So I never would’ve put my money on this, but this finale rocks. It’s not only adorable and as cute as always, but there’s actual conflict, and it’s good. (I KNOW!) So weird. What the hell were you doing for all those episodes, Show? Saving your wad for the big finale? What’s nice is that... More »

My Princess: Episode 15

SO MUCH CUTENESS in this episode. It’s like the good ol’ days, which I wasn’t expecting so late in the game with all the monarchy stuff nearing resolution, but which I found refreshingly welcome. True, it’s a little low on story movement, but when you pit story movement against some majorly adorable Kim Tae-hee/Song Seung-heon... More »

Hear Ye, Hear Ye! The Cute has returned! All hail the return of The Cute! Someone please, throw us a royal ball in The Cute’s honor. It’s the least you could do for dragging us through such nonsense and boredom. I mean, what’s a princess gotta do for a royal party up in this house?... More »

My Princess: Episode 13
by | February 16, 2011 | 256 Comments
We’re playing with some of the same plot points in this one, but at least we get some snuggle-bunny times for our princess and her bodyguard. Not a whole lot, but hey, I’ll take what I can get, since this couple’s cuteness is more than half of the drama’s sustaining life force. The remainder (for... More »

My Princess: Episode 12

Our couple gets backed into a corner, and everyone comes over with a bad case of Noble Idiocy. Well, everyone who has a heart. But thankfully Hae-young’s got it bad enough to go princess hunting. Which of course sends everyone else on the hunt as well. Who needs wabbits when it’s open season on princesses?... More »
