Zico appears on “Running Man” to do the “Any Song” challenge with our favorite Song…Song Ji-Hyo!
“My Holo Love” (나 홀로 그대)
What “My Holo Love” gets across is that people are lonely and long for human companionship.
“Itaewon Class” (이태원 클라쓰)
“Itaewon Class” is one of those rare K-Dramas where I disliked both female leads for different reasons. But it just goes to show that a good series doesn’t need a loveline to hold the viewer’s interest.
“Suits” (슈츠)
The Korean adaptation of “Suits” is an exciting series that shows off Park Hyung-Sik’s acting range and beautifully expressive face.

“Jung Hae-In’s Travel Log”
Jung Hae-In’s adventures in New York are delightful to watch. Here’s hoping he does another season. I know his international fans would love to travel with him vicariously to explore South Korea next.
“Tunnel” (터널)
Like many of the characters in this series, Gwang-ho is a bit of an idiot. Instead of quietly sneaking up to nab the various culprits, he constantly yells out his plans to catch the 새끼/saekki (or son of a bitch), giving the aforementioned 새끼 plenty of time to escape.
Who is in Season 2 of “Kingdom”?
Before tucking into the new episodes of “Kingdom: Season 2,” let’s take a look at the roles that got Ju Ji-hoon and his co-stars to this point in their careers.

Suga, Bong Joon-Ho & Other Korean Celebs Donate to Fight Against Coronavirus
In an attempt to remain anonymous, Gong Yoo donated money to help fight coronavirus under his real name of Gong Ji-cheol. The star of the film “Train To Busan” was among a slew of Korean celebrities (including Suga from BTS) who gave money to help medical workers and those afflicted by the disease.
BTS Takes Over Late-Night With ‘Tonight Show,’ ‘Carpool Karaoke’ Appearances
BTS has done its share of guest spots that follow the standard routine: perform a song and then sit on the sofa chatting about what American food they like. But ever since their appearance last May on “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert,” some American variety shows have gone out of their way to make things more unique.
Team Dream vs. Handsome Tigers
There have been some really great K-Dramas that had baseball arcs in their storyline. Yoo Yeon-seok had the second male lead role in “Reply 1994,” where he played a baseball player. And Jung Hae-in played a college baseball player who was so handsome that Gong Yoo’s character was jealous of him in “Goblin.”
BTS’ “Map of the Soul: 7” Album Review
A breezy “Hey-na-na-na” precedes their declaration of nothing being able to “Hold me down/ ‘Cuz you know I’m a fighter” makes it obvious that, like this entire album, “ON” is an exhortation to their fans, but also homage to their own career.
All About BTS’ “Map of the Soul: 7”
“BTS at this point is much more than a pop band,” songwriter Ellis Miah said. “They are a force of nature. Their energy brings smiles and excitement everywhere they go. To be involved in writing a song with them is a huge honor.”

Monsta X: “All About Luv” album review
It’s no coincidence that the release date for Monsta X’s latest project “All About Luv” is on Valentine’s Day — title aside, all of its songs explore elements of relationships. But don’t call it a love album: for as many sweet nothings as the set contains, its most powerful tracks deal with breakups and deceit.
Why Do Critics Love Bong Joon-Ho and Dismiss BTS?
MTV News interviewed me for this piece on how differently “Parasite” director Bong Joon-Ho and BTS are viewed by critics.
