[EDITORIAL] SBS Running Man's 'Dong Fury': A racial issue or just comedy?


Episode 150 of SBS’ incredibly popular ‘urban’ variety show ‘Running Man’ was a Marvel Avengers special. Each of the members and guests assumed their own superhero characters, many of which were based on the original Avengers team. This episode was very much anticipated, probably in part due to the huge success of the recent Hollywood film Avengers Assemble (2012) and perhaps also because adventurous themes such as this give the programme producers the chance to go all out with the costumes and special effects.

[KOREAN DRAMA REVIEW] 'Flower Boy Next Door' (2013)

 
 

‘Flower Boy Next Door’ is a 2013 drama based on Yoon Hyuk Suk’s webcomic ‘I Peek at Him Everyday’. It is the third instalment of the tvN ‘Flower Boy Series’ after ‘Flower Boy Ramen Shop’ (2011) and ‘Shut Up Flower Boy Band’ (2012).

All of these dramas do not have a connected narrative, but as you may have guessed, all share a Flower Boy theme in one way or another.

[GET THE K-POP LOOK] EXO - 'Wolf'.



EXO finally made their long-awaited comeback late last month after about a year away with the very wild track ‘Wolf’. As expected, the boys have dominated the charts with this latest single, showing a very dark and almost tribal concept. EXO’s fashion is always interesting, and this music video shows off an innovative, yet rather understated style.

Want to see if you can mimic this look on the British high street? Look no further!
