Actor Scope: Kim Seon Ho

Image
Kim Sun Ho or Kim Seon Ho is on the rise recently, and I can see why? I got introduced to him Through "Catch the Ghost". Honestly, I saw "Good Manager" on his portfolio, but I couldn't remember him at all. Probably, because his face was always covered with his hair and glasses, so I just felt that his voice was familiar. Anyway, I started watching "Catch the Ghost" originally because it was a genre I love. Also, I never saw Moon Geun-Young in a mystery before, so I wondered how well she could act in that. Turned out too well! As always I moved from one drama to another, until finally, I have only one show left to watch for him. I even watched him on "2 Days 1 Night Season 4".  Keep on reading for a guide to all Kim Seon-ho's works. Who is Kim Seon Ho? Name:   Kim Seon-ho (김선호) Birthday:   May 8, 1986 Instagram:   @seonho__kim V Live:   Kim Seon Ho TikTok:   https://www.tiktok.com/@seonho__kim?lang=en Management: Salt Entertainment with ar

Most Handsome Korean Male Actors

Image
This is my own preference, so feel free to fight with me in the comments section below! 😏 1. Kim Seon Ho  Ok, so what is your definition of handsomeness? I don't like the macho type of guys; they look kinda, cold and unapproachable. Don't get me wrong! They are good to watch from afar, and they are cool in fights and so on, but still, I would rather have someone who would make me laugh. Kim seon ho has just that charm for me! His character in the currently airing drama " Hometown Cha Cha Cha" is funny, laughable, and very approachable, and I love his acting style. It is like he turns into the character. I sometimes even forget he is the same character I see in 2 days 1 night! The goofy, fun guy who doesn't care that much about his face on 2day1night can't really be the same handsome guy in Start-up, can he? Anyway, he is no.1 on my list, and I don't care if you think otherwise!!! 2. Lee Je Hoon  Honestly, when I first watched Je Hoon, he didn't strike

Korean Dramas Ironic Cliches

This is a different article from what I used to write. There is no research needed this time because this is all about what I learned throughout the past 10 years watching Kdramas.  If you are an avid fan of Kdrama like me, you probably noticed these patterns in Kdrama. 1. The White Truck of Doom  When someone dies in an accident in Kdrama, it is amazing how one truck seems to be the cause all the time. Whether the driver was drunk, it was a planned accident, or simply an unfortunate incident, this truck is just a truck of Doom. It is the source of many memes online to the point that it is starting to affect the seriousness of accident scenes for me. 😸 2. She Tripped So We Hugged and Kissed Romcoms have these patterns that you can't miss, including back hugs, love triangles, handsome childhood sweetheart comeback, etc. The one pattern you know will happen at the start of a relationship is the trip and hug scenario. She tripped, so to prevent her from falling, we hugged! Or he trip

BeetBits: Move To Heaven

Image
 Probably the fastest binge ever in my own history of binge-watching. Move To Heaven is a short 10 episode drama produced by Netflix, especially for Kdrama lovers. It explores life and death through the story of the workers at Move To Heaven trauma cleaning agency. From Lee Je Hoon to the newly discovered Tang Joon-Sang, the cast for this drama is more than top-notch.  Trauma Cleaning  Ever heard of trauma cleaning? Personally, I have never heard nor even thought about them. It is weird, they say, "away from the eyes, away from the mind." It is totally true in this case. I have even written about unconventional careers before for a job; surprisingly, this job was not even mentioned anywhere. It is like the whole industry of crime scene cleaning is not exactly recognized by people. After reading a few articles about a trauma cleaner's job, it is a job that requires handling chemical materials that remove the worst type of contamination you can think of. Certainly, a job th

BeetBits: Vincenzo

Image
If you follow me on Twitter, you would know that Vincenzo is one of the few dramas I followed weekly till its final episode recently. I was very happy and satisfied with how things were developing in this drama - until a certain point, that is!!! Why I loved Vincenzo! Vincenzo is a story about a consigliere who leaves Italy after the head of the family dies and goes to Korea to start a war again evil 😅. While I am not familiar with how well the drama showcases the mafia, it is a fact that Song Joong Ki put a lot of effort in this role. According to reviews, his Italian is very good, and he definitely tried to mimic Italian body language even if he was not always successful.  Vincenzo starts as a well-balanced show with quirky characters and fun interactions between Vincenzo and the tenants of Guemga Plaza, and serious altercations between Vincenzo and Ok Taecyeon - Aka. Evil Guy - Aka. Jang Junu.  The main genre of the show is dark comedy; however, it definitely didn't set the to

BeetBits: Team Bulldog: Off-Duty Investigation

Image
I seriously need to write a list of unpopular Kdramas for 2020. I keep discovering new gems that I should have watched last year.  Team Bulldog Off-Duty Investigation This is a 12-episode short series starring Cha Tae Hyun and Lee Sun Bin as the main characters alongside multiple first-rate supporting actors. I especially loved Jung Sang-hoon in here. I always saw him in comedic roles and he was fun to watch but I wanted to see him in a serious role once.  Team Bulldog Off-Duty Investigation Review Team Bulldog is a mystery drama with quirky characters, fun investigations, disgusting murderers, and interesting reporters. You get the whole package in just 12 episodes in this drama. A group of misfits try to solve mysteries that the police themselves cannot solve. With one member a real detective, they are not a totally illegitimate group; therefore, they have access to crime scenes and police resources when needed. The group itself includes a former forensic pathologist, a former profil

BeetBits: Love Me If You Dare

Image
Been a while since my last Chinese drama review, Love Me If You Dare is a Chinese mystery drama starring Wang Kai, Wallace Huo, and Ma Sichun. The first thing I noticed about the actors is the uncanny resemblance between Ma Sichun and Kim Hyun-Joo, the famous Korean actress. Just to show you, here they are together.  Who is who? I will let you guess!! What is the Story of Love Me If you Dare Chinese Drama? Now to move along, I started this show based on a Twitter recommendation, and it was indeed well-recommended. The show discusses the life of a genius profiler and crime psychology professor who is able to deduct and find the most dangerous criminals ever; he even collaborated with the FBI, CIA and so on. Said genius starts to solve a series of crimes with the help of an assistant he somehow got interested in. All the crimes led him to the identity of his mortal enemy of sorts, a smart stalker like no other. This is a drama that combines thriller, mystery, action and romance together.

BeetBits: Hot Stove League

Image
Korean dramas in 2020 were really top-notch. Despite finishing my fair share of dramas, I am still discovering new gems till now in January. Hot Stove League is one of the dramas I didn't think I would like because I literally know nothing about Baseball. In fact, I am "sports illiterate" in general. However, this is one show that could count as educational, entertaining, and even non-romantic. Still, before starting the drama, it is better if you are not familiar with the rules of baseball to at least read an article before the beginning of this drama. It is not a drama about a high school team, therefore, you won't start the drama with an introduction to the rules of the game. In fact, one of the first meetings in the show included terminologies like WAR (Wins Above Replacements), batting average, etc. Therefore, I recommend you read the following articles before you start.  1. Baseball Rules by Rules of Sports 2. Baseball Positions: All 9 Fielding Positions Explai
