Netizen: Park Myungsoo And His Wife


Park Myungsoo, "Couple Shot With Wife Han Soomin... Such A Topic Maker"

One of the reasons why this got so much attention is due to the privacy Park Myungsoo tends to keep with his family! He has also not revealed his daughter on broadcasts. This particular selca circulated around and got much attention.

Music/Recommendation: Louie ft. Crucial Star - Walk



A few months ago I heard this playing in a store down in Ewha University's shopping district and I was completely sold. Surprised that I missed out on this one when I ran through Louie's album, Inspiration, as a huge fan of Geeks since I first heard them in Officially Missing You. It is one of the less popular side tracks in his album but definitely one of my personal favourites since I first heard it!

It has a simple mid-tempo melody, and Louie does a sort of speak-rap rhyme sequence throughout the song which makes it tremendously catch and fun to listen to. I really enjoy how the lines that differ in length rhyme so harmoniously together alongside the melody. The lyrics have a simple story to it; a couple separates and the guy pines for her to come back, realising that he can't live without her.

Fashion: Gongvely Edition

Model turn actress Gong Hyojin has to be one of the most stylish popular actresses out there; her style is modern and sophisticated, and she pulls off everything amazingly. I don't know why it took me quite awhile to do this; her shows have been many of my favourites and I always am in awe of her outfits in dramas.

As I've previously mentioned, I do find that actresses do not have the same fan patterns as idols do and hence are far less documented except by news portals. Either way, first up is some gongvely airport fashion!





There are so many I enjoy from her, so I'm going to make this picture heavy but systematic. So: Her most recent hit drama, It's Ok, That's Love, gave way to some major fashion eye candies as well. With the drama, she brought back many classic silhouettes that looked great with her model proportions. Her daily outfits outside of work saw some loose fitted tops either with bohemian elements, variations of blue jeans including some bell bottomed ones, and loosely fitted pants. It fitted the character in the show well as a working professional female, while still being able to retain some visual interest.









Now for some red carpet or event looks.

Netizen: The Genius Kim Yoohyun's Wife



So I found something interesting on Instiz after the most recent episode of The Genius 3: Black Garnet (Episode 9). I'm still viewing the show favourably and enjoying it massively, but I didn't know he was actually married! He had really good chemistry with Ha Yeonjoo.

Netizen/TV: Noh Hong Chul's Loss and Infinity Challenge's Future



For a long time I've been a massive fan of Infinity Challenge and have barely missed a single episode. But more than Junjin, more than Gil, Noh Hong Chul's loss hit me hard. He was always one of the members that you had a love-hate relationship with for his rather extreme demenanor which leads to different sentiments with differing situations. I'm upset that he made a mistake so soon, I'm upset that it happened so quickly after he has proven his worth and public recognition (with Choice 2014), and I'm upset that IF's dynamics will greatly change with his departure.

Even more than being upset, I fear that the show will slowly head its way to its demise. While they had always battled occasional dips in popularity and ratings, this probably has to be one of its greatest with such a swift and sudden shift in dynamics. Who will step up now? IF's charm had always been in the dynamics and interactions between the largely diverse members, with humour points stemming from their close relationships. Any changes to that, additions and subtractions included, might work against it with the massive fan base it has accumulated over the many years of broadcast. A part of me believes that it's just another challenge that will eventually be overcomed given the sole fact that it is Infinity Challenge, but.. Well, I just sincerely hope nothing bad happens so that I'll still have my regular weekly dose of IF.
