Moon Chae Won's Comeback in the Small Screen Through KBS Good Doctor, Soon!

Image
An Innocent Man and The Princess' Man fan, that's me. Moon Chae Won's acting won me over from these two great drama series that I have yet to be over with. Well, she did have amazing chemistry with both actors on her previous dramas and anticipating another awesome one for her upcoming drama Good Doctor.  Joo Won from Kim Tak Gu made an impact, though I haven't had the chance to see 7th Grade Civil Servant yet. But I read that the ratings are good and his popularity soared high even more. I'm first skeptical about the team up between these two. I hope to see MCW with a much older guy because JW has this baby face aura. But then again, I'll give it a chance, because I know that this one is going to be a good drama.  the news: as tagged Joo Won And Moon Chae Won’s First Script Reading For “Good Doctor” cre: soompi Fans eager to see the return of  Joo Won  and  Moon Chae Won  to the small screen won’t have to wait much longer.

Kwon Sang Woo in MBC New Drama "Medical Top Team"

Image
For Kwon Sang Woo fans, including me, this is his next project on MBC to be aired later this year, October 2013. He is busy this year,  with Queen of Ambition wrapped up early this year. Two dramas for KSW is more than enough for us. We get to see him act again and what's more, he is a doctor/surgeon in his next project.  the news: as tagged Kwon Sang Woo to return to the small screen as a surgeon for new drama 'Medical Top Team' cre: allkpop Actor  Kwon Sang Woo  is set to return to viewers with a new drama!

He'll be playing the role of 'Park Tae Shin', who is a genius in the field of surgery, but is often misunderstood due to his rash comments and attitude. However, underneath the exterior lies a so...

[mslee1107 Review] Empire of Gold Episode 2 - Divided For Power

Image
From the ending of episode 1, Jang Tae Joo [TJ] held the money bag and begged the hospital to save his father while the cops were holding his arms and dragging him away, witnessed by his sister Hee Joo.  Next scene found him inside the cell. Hee Joo visited him and told him that their father passed away and his remains were scattered in a place he likes to be. Tae Joo felt helpless. He imagined his father visited him and told him to make it in this world and win even once. An advise that he will definitely heed. TJ had experience a difficult situation in a hard way. He realized that what his father told him before was true. Sometimes, doing the right thing won't get you nowhere. It had to be courage and determination to get what you want to win the battles in life. Luckily, Choi Dong Sung of Sung Jin Construction survived the operation. I'm still not sure why this family seems to hold secrets, thus tension can be felt. CDS is clearly very fond of his yo...

Kdrama Actors With International Backgrounds

Image
cre:  http://www.kdramastars.com If you've ever wondered why some kdrama actors seem to be so fluent in other languages, it's probably because they lived in and attended school in other countries. For example 2PM's Ok Taecyeon, who appeared in "Cinderella's Sister," "Dream High" and will star in the upcoming drama "Who Are You?" spent several years attending school in the U.S. He was born in Korea but immigrated with his parent to Bedford, Massachusetts, living there for seven years. He attended Bedford High School, before attending, Gel In High School in Seoul and Dankook University. Besides English, he can also speak Japanese, which comes in handy at his fan meetings there. Actress Han Groo, who plays Ha Soo Young in the new drama "Scandal," moved to the U.S. with her family when she was in fourth grade. She attended elementary school in Arizona and junior high in California, earning excellent grades. Th...

Song Hye Kyo's Stand Against False Rumors

Image
cre:  http://www.kdramastars.com For most of her acting career Song Hye Kyo has laughed at the rumors that circulated about her, but a few years ago some of those rumors took an ugly turn. Things got so out of hand that the star of "That Winter The Wind Blows," Worlds Within" and "Full House" was forced earlier this year to file lawsuits against 41 netizens for spreading rumors between Sept. 2008 and Dec. 2011 Of those 41 netizens, the Seoul Central District Court has indicted 24 with fines. UAA Entertainment, Song Hye Kyo's agency, said they learned they won the case by reading the news. But they were not surprised at their victory since it was obviously the kind of slander that celebrities should be protected against. Legally, there is a difference between posting gossipy rumors about your favorite star and defaming their character. A netizen can say something negative about a celebrity but he or she cannot make false accusations that can p...

Image
cre:  http://www.kdramastars.com Lee Byung Hun is on his way to Hollywood again. It's a trip he has made often in the last few years as his career in Hollywood accelerates. Only this time the Hallyu star is heading there for a photo shoot with his glamorous "Red 2" co-star, actress Catherine Zeta-Jones. The co-stars will pose together for a cover photo for the August issue of Elle Korea. According to a representative from the magazine, the spread will feature them as a couple, which should be interesting. Even placing their pictures together shows what an attractive couple they could be if Catherine Zeta-Jones were not already married to actor Michael Douglas and Lee Byung Hun was not about to marry actress Lee Min Jung in August. Magazine representatives say the photo will illustrate both actors' charms and rumors say it is going to be "Red"-hot. The couple photograph is being used exclusively on the cover of the Korean edition of Elle and ...

MinSul is Back! To The Beautiful You Interview with Minho and Sulli

Image
Just around this time of the year when MinSul made me spazz so much and made me a shipper! The chemistry of these couple are so amazing, you just can't keep your grins under control. And then, I remember what's it's like to be young and fresh and in love. TTBY gave all these to me and more. I remember friendships through thick and thins. I remember pains of first love. Through all these, Minho and Sulli gave the best portrayals to the characters of Tae Joon and Jae Hee. Not only did they gave me reasons to be glued to the screen, they are a sight whenever they fill the screen. And to all who believes something is there than meets the eye, well, you know guys what I am talking about. The after TTBY events, the succeeding shows like RM..SM entertainment truly did not disappoint us. Another look at our MinSul through this TTBY interview. ENJOY and I know just seeing them together sitting side by side on the same screen will make you scream! Yah! No one is stopping y...

[Review] Empire of Gold Episode 1 - First Look...First Impression

Image
I just finished watching the first episode of the drama Empire of Gold which aired this week, Monday 9:55 KST. First Look... The drama started with the handsome Go Soo in his character as Jang Tae Joo. Although the scene is yet to be understood, the timeline I think is current. He exudes as a ruthless businessman. A man who will do anything in his power not be seized or be a pawn in the game of politics and business. With his handsome face and looking very, very suave in his suit, he began to bargain with a congressman. He can not be fooled easily. He knows when he is being deceived. He is as cunning as the next villain in a drama. In an attempt to coerced, convince and threaten the congressman to take a vacation outside the country and not turn him in [for reasons I have yet to uncover] he did not continue to stab the man. But when he turned away, he sensed and that's when he killed him.  Witnessing all these was Yoo Seol Hee, a beautiful woman who I later kne...

[mslee's thoughts] Kim Hyun Joong Back in the Small Screen After 3 Years via KBS2! updating...

Image
Can I just say that this is the best news I read upon opening my twitter and facebook account this morning? Wow, I'm so happy and thrilled for Kim Hyun Joong for this new project that will air on KBS2. After my disappointment to what happened in City Conquest, this is truly a blessing for Hyun Joong. As a fan, I embrace all things KHJ and reading this news, I feel that maybe this is the right time for his comeback. And reading about what's the story is going to be about, the era, I know this is his drama for this year. I have a feeling that the character will definitely suit him. I have yet to read accounts about the plot but as it was tweeted earlier by another KHJ fan, Age of Feelings, which is going to be the title is based on a manhwa. I googled the exact meaning of the term and this is what it says. via Wikipedia Manhwa  ( Korean pronunciation:  [manβa~manwa] ) is the general  Korean  term for comics and print  cartoons  (common u...
