2007 MBC Drama Awards

20071231MBC_females

The 2007 MBC Drama Awards was a big enough honor to bring out the Bae Yong-joon out from Neverland to accept the award for the Grand Prize (대상) the highest honor and also the Netizen’s Choice Award.

Yun Eun-hye and Gong Yoo were recognized for their outstanding acting skills for the popular hit drama, Coffee Prince.

The MBC Awards recognizes excellence in acting by being generous with its recognition. Two persons from each category for the best and outstanding actor/actress awards are chosen (sometimes translated as ‘top excellence’ and ‘excellence’ awards). Based on such a system, it seems that almost everyone on an MBC drama picked up an award. A win-win situation for the actors, but at the same time, the seriousness of the awards is watered down. Do they really need 2 separate categories for “top excellence” and “excellence” in acting?

Oh, I wish I was at the MAC Viva Glam VI Party

MAC’s Viva Glam VI Party showcased Marilyn Manson’s ex, Dita Von Teese, on Friday night. I had planned to go to the party but missed it because I was on the flight back to Seoul. Like Ms Teese who is flanked by 2 deliciously half-naked male models, I had the pleasure of being on a full plane in a middle seat also flanked by men, but that’s where the commonality ends. From the beginning of the flight, the aisle guy kept letting out concentrated toxic fumes every time he shifted in his seat and then, when he fell asleep, he completely let loose. I was not shy about covering my nose. However, what was even worse was when the lights went down, the window guy began to stare at me to see if I was aware of the frenzied activity that was going on under his blanket! Ugh. Yuck. Ew.  In my relatively short life, that was THE worst plane ride ever. Phew, ok, I had to let that out.

However, I digress. It’s too bad that I missed out on seeing Hyori and Bada in a sexy black outfits, international model Song, Park Shinhye of GoongS, Park Ji-yong and Jun Hye-bin. It would have been infinitely more interesting (and pleasant smelling) than being stuck in a middle seat sandwiched by 2 noxious men on a long 12 hour flight.*

Park Shin-hye’s first kiss on GoongS

Young star, Park Shin-hye (16) onscreen kiss with fellow star, Se7en is her first kiss ever. Lucky girl. But totally unromantic kiss. Look at Se7en staring at her. Dang. I guess it’s better than the last kiss.

Drama Sequel: Goong S (translation: Palace S)

"Goong S" is finally here! It’s sequel to "Goong" which was a huge hit last year in Korea.  It was a cute fusion of modern day romance, arranged marriages and the Korean royal family, hence the name Goong (trans: royal palace).  The drama was filled with humorous dialogues as well as the extravagant displays of traditional Korean custom (han bok).  Oh yes, and the fashion of Yoon Eun Hea – the lead actress was amazing as well.

The expectations for the sequel is higher and I sure hope that Se7en can meet them.  However, the drama is starting with a very unfortunate event.  The producers and the station are fighting over the name.  Basically, the producers of last years "Goong" wants royalty fees for using the name, and I think the current producers don’t want to pay.

So whats the plot?  Se7ven was chinese food delivery boy who had a "normal" life until he finds out that he was the heir to the throne and the rest of the drama is about Se7en learning about the various traditions and customs of the royal life and adjusting to his new fate.  Sounds interesting?  Tell us what you think!
