Flowers strike back: Moon/Sun edition

javabeans — Wed, 01 Feb 2012 18:34:27 +0000

girlfriday: Well, this is an idea gone awry.

javabeans: Is…that…who I think it is? Well, that’s embarrassing.

girlfriday: Someone took “flower boy” way too literally. Those pants are just… wow.

javabeans: Look, just because they’re called “flower boys” doesn’t mean you have to represent every part of that etymology, in picture form.

Ji Jin-hee’s playful charm in High Cut

girlfriday — Wed, 25 Jan 2012 23:11:10 +0000

Damn, some guys just have that old school movie star look about them that blows all the flower boys out of the water. Why is Ji Jin-hee (Take Care of Us Captain, Dong Yi) looking so good? It probably helps that he’s sporting a ruggedly handsome look in the first photo, then switches gears to dorky-hot in the last one, aaaand I’m pretty much toast.

Jang Geun-seok in High Cut

javabeans — Wed, 04 Jan 2012 02:13:08 +0000

javabeans: Now this is what we call a Scrolldown Fug. (TM Fug Girls.)

girlfriday: It’s like a fashion mullet: All business on top, party on the bottom.

javabeans: Are palazzo pants making a comeback? Because the moment they went of style in the ‘90s was the brief moment when fashion embraced sanity.

girlfriday: And in ajumma flower print no less.

javabeans: I’ll say this for Jang Geun-seok: He sure went all-out. Those be some high-end curtains he Maria von Trapp’d.

Nam Sang-mi in January’s Sure magazine

javabeans — Tue, 03 Jan 2012 18:30:57 +0000

Nam Sang-mi can be currently seen rocking the retro in the ’60s-’70s-’80s drama Light and Shadow, but she’s back to modern for Sure magazine’s January issue, which is where these photos come from.

Apparently this Sure spread takes a cue from her showbiz-set drama by taking the theme “The show must go on”… which I can’t see anywhere, frankly. These magazine shoots hardly ever really make sense of their supposed concepts, but I don’t know that you can cull “showbiz” from anything in it. It could just as easily have been called “romantic lovely lady” or another of those random string of adjectives the ladymags like to string together haphazardly. (You know: “Classic tousled elegant.” “Funky elegant bohemian.” “Shiny happy people holding hands.”)

Park Shi-hoo for L’Officiel Hommes

javabeans — Wed, 21 Dec 2011 19:01:07 +0000

Park Shi-hoo picture post! Alert: Abs ahead.

The photo shoot comes from men’s magazine L’Officiel Hommes, which carries an accompanying interview. Among the topics of mention is the fact that Park hasn’t dated in four years: “I’ve been busy working, and it hasn’t been easy to meet someone.”

About his late-blooming fame (relatively speaking), 33-year-old Park said, “I’ve always preferred running over long distances over sprinting. Once I start something, I have to see it to the end.”

Song Joong-ki for GQ

girlfriday — Tue, 22 Nov 2011 18:03:14 +0000

Here’s Song Joong-ki in a decidedly strange spread for GQ. Normally I’m a fan of quirky, but this one’s just plain weird. For one, they’ve got the torso and legs of a woman standing there like a headless prop, which drives me batty. (Objectify much? Seriously, Mr. Scarecrow got better treatment than her.) And secondly, is it just me, or does he look AFRAID of what might be under that teeny tiny bikini?

Kim Soo-hyun and Han Chae-young for Marie Claire

girlfriday — Mon, 21 Nov 2011 13:05:17 +0000

Aw, don’t they grow up so fast? One day he’s playing a kid with a dream, and the next he’s blue-steeling it in a photo shoot, soaking up the noona love. Perhaps he’s honing his noona-killer skills for his upcoming role in MoonCloud Kissing SunBeam? Er, what am I saying? Since when does Kim Soo-hyun need practice when it comes to noona-slaying?

Lee Da-hae’s Los Angeles photo shoot

girlfriday — Mon, 14 Nov 2011 18:46:40 +0000

Here’s a glimpse at what actress Lee Da-hae has been doing since her last drama Miss Ripley, a role that has successfully put her back in good standing, as far as her public image goes. The drama itself wasn’t nearly as dark as I wanted, but she did a good job playing the wounded heroine, even though I desperately wished she’d stop being wounded and just be BAD.
