FRIDAY NIGHT DRAMA: My Princess

I don’t know how this week has been for you but for me, it’s been an absolute nightmare. In an effort to salvage what little sanity I have left, I decided to go back in time and pull up a drama whose very name invokes all manner of warm-fuzzies for me, in the hopes that those warm and pleasant memories would be strong enough to drive all of the crappiness of this past week away. While I can’t say this desperate attempt to forget my life for a moment has been totally successful, the memories I have of sitting down to watch my very first K-Drama, and the feelings that inevitably followed, were enough to bring about a few moments peace which is why I’m now suggesting you make the time to marathon My Princess this weekend.

HALLYU ZOMBIE DRAMA REVIEW: Emergency Couple Episodes 1-2 (4/4)

Zombie: So it seems we’re all in agreement that the first episode of Emergency Couple wasn’t nearly as awesome as maybe we were all hoping it would be. Maybe it’s because we’re all married that we don’t find a hugely gianormous fight between our OTP all that funny; especially when said fight brings about the end of a marriage.

TUNE OF THE WEEK: T.O “Lie”

After a two-week deluge of K-Pop comebacks and debuts, this week has been relatively slow which is why I’ve decided to go back a couple of weeks and feature a fantastic song that kind of got lost in all of the holiday hullabaloo, T.O’s soulful contribution to the Unemployed Romance OST, “Lie.”

FRIDAY NIGHT DRAMA: Full House

With Rain’s comeback well underway, I thought it only fitting to celebrate by marathoning Rain’s 2004 rom-com hit, Full House; which is why I’ve decided to feature it as this week’s Friday Night Drama.

TUNE OF THE WEEK: Lee Dong Woo “Fly With You”

I’m not sure what’s with the trend lately for K-artists to release swing-era inspired tunes but I LOVE IT! That being said, it only makes sense to make Lee Dong Woo’s “Fly With You” my tune of the week.

FOUR DEVILISHLY HANDSOME ANIME ROGUES YOU WISH WERE REAL

If you’ve watched K-dramas for any length of time, you’re no stranger to the strange spell the leading men are capable of casting. However, you may not be aware that drama men aren’t the only ones capable of entrancing you with their charming voodoo. Here are four leading anime men whose spells are so powerful you’ve caught yourself wishing they were more than an animated character, despite their shady character.

BOYFRIEND COMING TO CHICAGO

For American K-Pop fans, the month of January has been a pretty good one, as both U-KISS and CNBLUE have graced our westernukiss 2014 shores with their presence (and more importantly) a handful of concerts. For those lucky enough to live on one coast or another, these concerts have been a fantastic opportunity to support our beloved K-Pop idols in person but for those of us, doomed to live smack dab in the middle of this K-Pop barren country, that chance seems to be nothing more than an impossible dream.
