Bachelor’s Vegetable Store: Episode 3
We’re just two Bachelors into the Six Pack, which is slow for my liking, but on the upside I just adore what we’ve seen of them so far.

Bachelor’s Vegetable Store: Episode 2
Finally! Ji Chang-wook! Boy, did you make me suffer through a whole lot of backstory to get to you.

Protect the Boss posters and character stills
We’ve got posters and character promo stills out for SBS’s Protect the Boss, and I have to say that this drama is slowly growing on me with what appears to be an offbeat, wacky vibe. It just may be quirky enough to work. I wasn’t initially too enthralled by the chaebol hero and the boss-secretary... More »
