7 Top Kpop Idols Turned Actors

Image
As fans of Kpop, we all like to see our Bae try something new, especially acting because then we get to see them weekly for some-time. Some idols succeed in giving us perfect satisfaction as actors and some don't. We keep loving them though, just not as actors. Everyone probably has their list of the best Idol-Actors and we decided to share our list with you.  Best Kpop Idols Who Can Act 1. Choi Siwon ( Super Junior) Super Junior's first centre "Choi Siwon" is probably one of the best Idol-Actors you could think about. His first role in the drama "Oh My Lady" was very good. Although the drama itself was not highly rated, his acting did show enough talent to grab the attention of various directors. He followed that role with some unique roles in dramas like Posseidon, She Was Pretty, King of Dramas, etc. No one can forget his acting in “ I Was Pretty”, it left us all heartbroken with the worst second lead syndrome you could think about. His f...

BeetBits: Best Lover Review

Image
This week's BeetBits Review will focus on yet another Chinese drama. " Best Lover " is a Korean-Chinese collaboration drama. It stars the famous "My Girl" actress Lee Da Hae and the new "Super Junior" singer Zhou Mi .  Dubbing Issue The reason I chose to review this drama this week especially is because this drama is the first one ever to make me encourage dubbing. For those of you who don't know, this drama is available on Netflix. However, I don't encourage watching this one on Netflix at all. The version available everywhere is totally different from the Netflix version. Somehow Netflix bought the version before the dub was added or removed the dubbed voices. Whatever the case is, the version on Netflix shows a full Korean drama with one Chinese guy always speaking Mandarian, and somehow the people understand him. It makes no sense, and it is irritating to any viewer who understands that these are in fact, two different languages...

These Actors Deserve More: Best Supporting Korean Actors

Image
Best Supporting Korean Actors Ever fell in love with a second lead and then discovered that he does not have a lot in his resume. Ever felt that you really wanted the main role for someone and waited to see it happen. We all had moments were we suffered from the second lead syndrome. We just hoped so bad to have the heroine end with that guy somehow cuz, come on, he deserves it. Below you will find our list of the supporting actors I think deserve more love: 1- Yoon Park Yoon Park is definitely a handsome and talented guy, however, he definitely does not get enough roles for someone that talented. His role in "What Happened To My Family?" was definitely such a heart-wrenching role. Although, I would rather not spoil the story, however, one specific scene in the hospital where he works just broke my heart. He also played stunning roles in dramas like " Come Back Ahjushi" and "Introverted Boss" 2- Dong Ha ...

Reading Bee: One Piece Recommended Fanfics

Image
As an avid reader of books, fanfiction, fiction, etc. I have decided to dedicate a special section on this blog to reading. The Reading Bee will consist of book reviews, fanfiction reviews, online article reviews, etc. Every two-four weeks, I will write a recommendation article or a review of a book of some kind. This will probably be the only section with non-Asian related articles from now on. One Piece Stories Today, I will write about my favourite One Piece Fanfictions. One Piece is a legendary anime to many people, and it really tickles the imagination of fanfiction writers. Fans love a good fanfiction, and I personally strive to find the best of the best. If you are like me, check out the following list : 1-   Mindshattered By Velkyn Karma If you are looking for a dramatic fic, there is nothing more tragic than this one. The story takes place right after the 3 years time skip. However, the place Zoro ends up in is slightly different from Mihawk's cas...

BeetBits: Well-Intended Love Review

Image
I can't believe I will start this series of articles with a Chinese drama of all things. Being an avid fan of both Korean and Japanese dramas, I thought I would definitely focus more on Korean dramas in this weekly precise mini-series of reviews. However, after thinking about it, I have decided to make this as international as possible. BeetBits will be released every Sunday from now on and it will be a small review of a single series each week. This week our focus will be on " Well-Intended Love " Actors and Characters  When I started " Well-intended Love" I was just bored and picked something randomly, but it did manage to capture my interest. The main actor Xu Kaicheng is quite handsome with strong charisma. I am not familiar with the language so I thought I would find the drama weird and actually drop it, but embarrassingly enough I did not. (cuz the main actor was handsome >-<) Anyway, the lead role has a charm, and there is the depth tha...

Actor Scope: Yoo Seung-ho

Image
This young, handsome, cool actor actually started his career as a child actor. He is one of the few child actors who managed to survive the harshness of the industry and build a stunning resume of movies, dramas, MVs, and so on. He started as a model then moved on to acting in films and MVs. As someone who only just recently discovered this guy. I have decided to make him the subject of this very first actor scope article. This series will now become a stable series with an actor each month to focus on. It is similar to the stalker guides you find online, but since the word " Stalker" has a bit of a negative connotation of sorts, I have decided to name my series "Actor Scope". Also, I will only mention the top of the top for each actor so I won't mention every single drama or movie they worked on. Movies Yoo Seung-ho is a 25 years old actor born in 1993 (the same year as me). He started his career very early on. In 2002, He was in the movie " T...
