A.N.JELL in Japan

You're Beautiful

You’re Beautiful is coming to its end next week with two more episodes. The cast, including A.N.JELL members (Jang Geun Suk, Park Shin Hye, Jung Yong Hwa and Lee Hong Ki) are now in Japan shooting their final scenes.

I’m kinda sad that this drama is reaching its end but I’m also excited to see how everything wraps up. I absolutely enjoyed everything about this drama and I hope ABS-CBN, who acquired the rights to air the drama in the Philippines, does it justice with their dubbing. Bringing the cast here would be great too *wink* *wink*.

Here are some photos of the cast at the airport. They have been in Japan since November 18 and will finish shooting the finale on the 22nd.

Shinee and Mighty Mouth are coming to the Philippines

Korean Cultural Festival

Pinoy K-pop fans, listen up.

As part of the festivities for the Korean Week in the Philippines, the Korean Embassy is sponsoring a Korean Cultural Festival. Among its highlights is a free concert featuring the K-pop boyband Shinee, hip hop group Mighty Mouth and the jazz group Winterplay. The concert will be held at the Cultural Center of the Philippines on November 27 at 3 p.m., and yep, admission is free.

Finally, the Korean Embassy has responded to requests from K-pop lovers here to bring in more Korean artists. We’re pretty psyched about this.

Attention drama otakus! What’s your must see jdorama this fall season?

It’s been a while since I’ve enjoyed watching a jdorama. The last Japanese drama I’ve seen was Kimi Wa Petto, an old drama I downloaded just because I missed Matsumoto Jun. I wasn’t even able to finish Smile since no one was subbing it. :-(

Anyhoo, Tokyograph came up with a list of dramas this fall and I’m pretty excited to see that two of my favorite Japanese leading men are back. Yay!
