Japanese actress Keiko Kitagawa is playing a swordswoman in her new movie After the Flowers, which is scheduled to show in March 2010. Don’t have much clue what the film is about; love its promotional pics for Keiko though…
Korean pop group Super Junior’s member Kang-in, who was indicted for a bar brawl last month, is in trouble again… a bigger trouble in fact.
He was booked for fleeing the scene after causing a traffic accident under the influence of alcohol in early morning of October 16 [more on Koreatimes]
Kang-in only turned himself in six hours later, probably after consultation with his company; both the artist and company have issued public apologies (to the fans).
Apology WTF. He could have killed someone; luckily nobody was seriously hurt in the accident. DUI was bad enough, and running away instead of checking the victims? It’s a disgrace dude.
Korean drama IRIS’s OST, titled Don’t Forget, sung by Baek Ji-young. The MV only focused on the love triangle between the three main characters in the spy-action thriller, played by Lee Byung-hun, Kim Tae-hee and Jung Jun-ho…
Nice song; Baek Ji-young did well to bring out the sorrow and emotions. Would be great to have a clean (without conversation) version.
IRIS is one of the most anticipated Korean dramas of the year. The star-studded show opened strongly on October 14; its English subbed episodes are scheduled to start showing on KBS World channel (lucky me lol) on Nov 11.
Other co-stars include Kim Seung-woo, Kim So-yeon and Choi Seung-hyeon.
