News/Commentary: Lee Seung-gi and Hung Joon in drag

Continuing on historical fashion, co-stars, Hung Joon, Suzy, and Lee Sung-gi recently wore female hanboks on the set of their drama, Gu Family Book.

Korean traditional clothing is actually pretty cute. Out of the two guys, I definitely think Lee Seung-gi is more feminine, especially in his baby blue hanbok. While cross-dressing is a bit taboo in the United States, many Korean actors and idols have no qualms about embracing their femininity. I mean, how many times has Super Junior dressed in drag for concerts?

Do you like when male celebrities cross-dress? I think it shows a more comedic side to them, and it's always fun to see them joking around. What do you think?

Check out the preview for Episode 17 (ENG):

News: Song Hye Kyo Stylists' Secrets

Song Hye Kyo's styling in her drama, That Winter the Wind Blows has sparked interest in her styling due to her role as a young heiress. After it was broadcasted, people talked at the same time that because of the dramatic scenes, her lipstick and emotional depiction were hot topics. Now many people are talking about her Pearl earrings. 

 Song Hye Kyo's beauty stylist, who is responsible for styling secrets, focuses on modern pieces that don't distract from the emotion of the scene so that the audience can focus on the details of both Song Hye Kyo's acting and her styling.  Even in her private collection, Song Hye Kyo wear a lot of clothes that are pretty and go well together, you can tell by just looking at them in the closet.

Song Hye Kyo's pearl earrings catch everyone's attention

In the drama, Song Hye Kyo's wears "modern pearl earrings", which have become the talk of the town. 

Her stylists says, "pearl serves casually if we want it to", and it adds to Song Hye Kyo's attractiveness. Other pieces that garnered an explosive reaction from the Korean public were her white coat and her Hermes scarf.  Regarding the scarf, her stylist said "a scarf gives a nurturing feeling when placed on the neck, and it seems to be a good way to look glamorous. A sensible bag tie is also a good idea". She recommends "as much scarf detailing as possible and a modern design" to help enhance any outfit.  

So it seems like the key to becoming glamorous like Song Hye Kyo is nice lipstick, attractive pearl earrings, a detailed scarf, and a simple bag.

How do you like her styling?

Endorsement: 10cm x G9

Indie band 10cm has released their latest digital single called “Earthling?" as a collaboration with online shopping site G9, a new branch of G-Market, which has been endorsed by G-Dragon. 

‘G9′ will offer special promotions with 9 special daily deals presented to their upgraded members who are called ‘Earthlings’. This song is supposed to humorously describe the situation of the online shopping site’s regular members (‘Aliens’) not knowing about the shopping deals of ‘Earthlings'.

I think it's a great way to combine music and fashion. Korea is doing well with their collaborations. 

How do you like the song?

News: Clazzquai's Horan looks striking in her wedding dress

After announcing her engagement months ago, Clazziquai's Horan got married on 30th March at the Renaissance hotel in Gangnam. 

She looked stunning in her classic dress. It featured a sweet-heart neckline and a princess skirt. She complimented her look with an elegant tiara and full veil. It had a satin finish that helped illuminate her wedding glow. Congrats, Horan!

After seeing the pre-wedding pictures, I feel like her dress is definitely more classic. It will still seem beautiful years from now. Here are some of her "teaser" pictures:

While I love the long sleeve dresses, I appreciate the fact that she looked more like a bride in the dress she wore. 

Do you like Horan's traditional style?
