Lee Seung Gi and Ha Ji Won Share Sparks on King 2 Hearts Stills

Truly, "age doesn't matter" in dramaland! After I've seen a bunch of photo stills from King 2 Hearts featuring Lee Seung Gi (Yay! My Hubby!) and Ha Ji Won (one of my favorite female Korean stars), I had no choice but to eat up all my discontented words when I said that this team-up wouldn't work for me. Because you know what, Seung Gi and Ji Won do. Undeniably, their chemistry works on me on all levels. Photo stills alone are enough for me to declare my love for this new romantic ship.

THE ROOFTOP PRINCE AND HIS QUIRKY VASSALS IN A COLORFUL TRACKSUIT

Bring on the Royals! Aside from Fashion King, SBS is also grooming a prince who lives not in a classy palace but in a messy rooftop. After he breathed life to the privileged scholar in Sungkyunkwan Scandal and a perfect heir in Miss Ripley, Park Yoochun is now back on dramaland as the Rooftop Prince.

Now Playing : IU's Last Fantasy

IU's powerful but soothing voice wakes my nerves and alerts my mind everytime I need to stay up late. I love this girl and without her, my sleepless nights will never be the same again. Right now, I'm listening to IU's latest song entitled Last Fantasy. The music video of this song presents us the clips in her recent successful tours in Japan. Check out the video below accompanied with Korean romanization and English translation of the lyrics.

Initial Thoughts About Four "Thousand" Dramas (Part 1)

In case you got the wrong idea, let me clarify first that I'm not going to lay down my first impressions about four thousand different dramas. That's a massive account and so far, I only have more than a hundred of Asian dramas on my list. Instead, I am going to tackle about the early episodes of four Korean dramas that have the word "thousand" incorporated on the their titles.

Fresh Fashion King Stills in New York

Aaaaaaaaand another batch of Fashion King stills enter my corner. In these new photos, we have Shin Se Kyung studying enthusiastically as a fashion design student, Yoo Ah In sporting a rugged look in front of Cooper Union Arts School, Kwon Yuri flashing her elegance in the street and Lee Je Hoon looking like a dashing gentleman on the set in New York.

Park Min Young's Roman Holiday and The Significance of The Trip to her Love Life

Europe is the best place for people in love! Whether there is real meat behind the split-up issue or just purely fabricated flesh to manipulate Lee Min Ho's rabid fans, I don't care at all. I believe what I want to believe. I see things through the filter of my own interpretation and what carry weight to me the most is, Park Min Young unnie is having a great and glamorous time wandering the streets of Italy while licking ice-cream.

Snowy Days in Denver

It's been months since we moved from the Philippines to U.S. and I could say that I already passed the adjustment stage. The people, culture, lifestyle and language didn't became an issue to me. Actually, it's the weather or should I say climate that plays a big difference in my everyday life. I grew up in a tropical country where most of the time it's hot so having the opportunity to experience snow is already a dream come true. It may sound funny and trivial to others but it's true. I really did wish when I was a kid to touch snow at least once in my life and it did happen when we migrated to Denver.

First Look at Lee Je Hoon and Yuri On The Set of Fashion King

SNSD's YURI & RISING ACTOR LEE JE HOON

Fashion King is teasing me so hard everyday, I feel like begging my mom to allow me to travel more than three hours by plane from Denver to New York just to stalk its cast. After dropping a bunch of photo stills these past few days featuring Yoo Ah In and Shin Se Kyung, today marks the turn of rising actor Lee Je Hoon and SNSD member Yuri to face the camera as Fashion King releases some stills of the two on set.

Uncover Song Joong Ki : 55 Trivias About The Flower Boy

SONG JOONG KI

Song Joong Ki is the epitome of cuteness. He is not that stunningly handsome but there's something about this boy next door that could make girls swoon. He is an eye-candy that I love to watch (and lick! LOL ^^) on-screen. Whether he is cracking his comical charm or delivering a heart-rending performance, you'll easily know that he is not just a pretty face. He can do both well and it doesn't stop there. Song Joong Ki has a lot of talents to offer, setting aside the fact the he is also a brainy student.

Ojakgyo Brothers : Episode 57 Preview (The Tae Hee-Ja Eun Wedding)

Ring the wedding bells as Hwang Tae Hee and Baek Ja Eun finally reach the altar to make a vow. This is what I like the most in watching family dramas that have a 50+ episodes, wedding is always a must! I feel so relieve and happy that the couple will finally tie the knot. I just hope no complications will rise that can stop this blissful event. Oh! Please! Let these two lovely creatures be "hubby and wifey" and make babies as cute as them. ^^

Park Min Young is The Spring Muse of Compagna 2012 Catalog

Sophisticated and mature : This is the kind of girl Lee Min Ho allows to slide on his grasp as haters' long-awaited break-up turns into a news (if this issue is 100% truth). They say that once a relationship ends, the best thing to do is to "move on" and it looks like Park Min Young is doing a fabulous job on her part. Her latest pictorial for the 2012 Spring Collection of Compagna is a proof that she's handling all the negativity with elegance and radiance. Her beauty glows in a luminous room as she displays her lovely charm in every pictures.

More Yoo Ah In and Shin Se Kyung Fashion King Stills Plus Yuri's Valentine Gifts

A friend of mine in facebook mentioned to me yesterday that PurpleLee's Corner looked like Fashion King's own blog. Well, I can't argue with her because evidently, most of my posts nowadays are concern about this upcoming fashion drama. I just can't help it! Everytime new stills reach my radar, my fingers start to work voluntarily. And now, I have another batch of photo teasers to boost my overflowing anticipation. March 12, why can't it comes sooner!

It looks like SBS is willing to burn a huge sum of money (take note : US dollar) for its upcoming fashion drama starring Yoo Ah In, Shin Se Kyung, Lee Je Hoon and SNSD's Yuri. Recently, the four major cast and the crew of the upcoming Monday-Tuesday series Fashion King headed to U.S to shoot some scenes in New York and Las Vegas for two weeks.

The Reasons Why Girls Fall For Bad Boys in K-dramaland

HERE'S THE REAL DEAL - In a girl's mind, a "nice guy" like Prince Charming is always the "ideal man", but in her heart a girl can't help but fall in love with a complete irony of him. He's the guy with a signboard on his forehead declaring that he's A BAD BOY!!! Whether girls admit it or not, in dreams and fantasy, a boy has to be a true-blue gentleman, but in reality it's the rebellious guy with a cause who captures the hearts.

There is no scientific explanation that can decipher why a girl desires a bad guy over a good one. But some observations and fact can help us unravel the mystery why a BAD BOY has a magnetic attraction that can pull a girl's heart, even if she knows that he's also the type of guy who breaks one. From the start, you are already fully aware that being with him will give you pain and tons of tears but you can't help it! What can you do? You are like a prisoner who can't escape his solid spell. Having him around feels like heaven and hell, it's bitter and sweet but you just can't get enough of it that you're always wanting for more.

In Time With You : OST Lyrics (English Translations)

If you're an avid lurker of PurpleLee's Corner, you have the idea how much I worship this show! I love "In Time With You" will all my heart and that is not an overstatement because I do. I really do. Aside from the heart-tugging story of best friends-turned hubby and wifey, the songs included in the official soundtrack of this Taiwanese drama play a big part why all my emotions are dig out of my limbic system.

Lee Seung Gi is Ha Ji Won's King : Should I be Happy or Sad?

(Photo source : THE KING : 2 HEARTS channel at viki.com )

Delighted and discontented are the two sides of the coin I'm tossing on the air right now to find out what I should feel about the upcoming drama of Lee Seung Gi and Ha Ji Won in MBC. The coin already reached my floor but it is still flipping continuously, weighing the final side that will serve as the outcome. I know the coin will stop rotating soon and judgment will be done but not until my eyes land on the pilot episode of this series, or maybe a teaser will be enough to determine the answer.

Book Preview : The Future of Us

"Oh! Another Jay Asher's book!" I said while scanning the available novels in the limited shelves of the book section in King Soopers. The Future of Us piqued my interest mainly because the author of the brilliant book Thirteen Reasons Why, is one of the duo who penned this contemporary slashed sci-fi novel along with Carolyn Mackler.

Fashion King Introduces the Main Characters

THE FOUR LEADS OF THE FASHION KING

Upcoming SBS series Fashion King knows how to flare up the platform. Few weeks before it finally sets foot in the drama runway, character posters are already out igniting the anticipation of excited fans like me. I am floored to see all the latest cast developments continuously stealing the center stage of my corner (so expect more Fashion King updates ahead!). I just hope this drama will prove that it deserves all the hot ravings I'm giving right now (unlike the ill-fated and disappointing Man of Honor. Meh!).

Lee Won Geun Kisses Jang Jae In in her Latest "None Other Than You" Music Video

Oh shoot! Lee Won Geun, why did you have to lock lips with that girl in the music video? Noooooooooo! I can't take this! Boy, you just rip my fangirl heart into pieces and now I'm gonna hunt Jang Jae In down, and slit her throat so that she can't sing anymore (Rabid MIN-MIN Haters' inspired actions, never imitate these people!) LOL! Just kidding! I'm jealous but I adore Jang Jae In. I like this girl especially her husky but soothing voice that compliments her cute but spunky charm.

For Jae In's newest single, "None Other Than You", Lee Won Geun (also known as the Younger Woon) from The Moon That Embraces The Sun plays as her sweetheart in the music video. It pains to see him being so lovey-dovey with her but the song washes away all the jealousy I feel while watching it.

Unofficially Yours Drops Bold and Wacky Posters and Trailer

He wants love but she wants freedom. He wants to try but she wants to chill. He wants a formal commitment but she wants a casual relationship. He wants an official status but she wants an unofficial one. Whose wants will succeed in this whirlwind love story in the end?

Find out the answer in Star Cinema's latest Valentine movie offering, Unofficially Yours top-billed by Angel Locsin and John Llyod Cruz. This movie is set to reflect the modern casual relationship women and men today are engaging. Recently, the movie reveals a bunch of daring posters that also signal a comical touch and a striking official trailer that makes me want to watch the film more.

Second Kick-ass Trailer of The Hunger Games

Just a warning, I'll curse and stone to death (only in my brain) all the people involve behind the making of this movie-adaptation if they totally suck the story of The Hunger Games. Seriously, they should be punish if they fail to give justice to the book. It's a mortal sin, you know! LOL.

But I guess, the movie version has the power to rock my world knowing that Suzanne Collins (the author herself) is one of the three creative minds who work on the screenplay. Taking the trailer as the judging piece, I got weird goosebumps while watching it so clearly, it has a wow-factor. It feels surreal that the book that made me share the nightmares of people living outside the Capitol is finally battling it out on the big screen.

Camera for Fashion King starts rolling

Yoo Ah In's first leading-role drama Fashion King has already started filming, joining him in the set is her new leading lady, one of my favorites, gorgeous actress Shin Se Kyung. I'm glad that this fashion series is now on the go. I've been waiting for any buzz about this since last year of December. Here below are some of the first stills and behind the scene pictures taken from the shooting of the drama.

Look at him! That's the shocked but still cute face Yoo Ah In can pulled off. For this particular scene above, Ah In needed to be hang and jump with the help of wire-action-stunts that took 20 takes to be done. It seems like our king is running away from some gangsters (or maybe loan sharks) and the third-story-window is the only escape route available for him.
