“Arang and the Magistrate” Tantalizing Character Descriptions and Latest Trailer

After reading these character descriptions, I am even more excited. Eun-Oh, the character that Lee Junki is playing, is not what I expected from the original short taglines.

Wow, I haven’t been this excited for a drama just by the character stills alone. I love the soft but colorful quality of the photos and I especially love everyone’s costumes. This drama is going to be so visually beautiful. Yay for the fantasy genre! Click on photos to enlarge.

Poster Released for “Arang and the Magistrate”

Shin Mina Looking Seductive for High Cut

I’m itching to do a recap so I’m really excited for the start of the upcoming dramas, Arang and the Magistrate, Faith, and Nice Guy. There hasn’t been much promotional material for Faith and Nice Guy so I’m devouring up Arang for now. Here is Shin Mina looking gorgeous for the July issue of High Cut. The concept of the photo shoot is “Black Swan” although I don’t see what’s so black swan about the photos except maybe the fierce gaze? Supposedly she is channeling a Lolita look for the cover photo with the veil. I see that but what’s black swan got to do with Lolita?
