Park Eun-Bin: "The Ghost Detective" drama press conference pics and video....


 Very streaky when it comes to posting about Korean actresses and dramas. There will be about thirty posts or so in a two month period and then zero for the next two months. Luckily we're starting on the good stretch of the streak which means if there's any K-drama fans out there you'll be finding many posts you'll enjoy.
 Eun-Bin is someone who I really like so much but as is the case with too many Korean actresses it''s difficult to do many posts for her as there's such a huge shortage of mag spreads and other things. But do promise to work on another solo post for her and also am planning on having a few posts for other Korean actresses coming up. Last posts for Eun-Bin were for her "Judge vs. Judge" drama which was a very good watch but didn't end up finishing the recaps for it. That's common for me with Korean dramas as they're a bit long so very rarely do a recap for all of the episodes.





 "The Ghost Detective" is Eun-Bin's latest drama and it just finished it's run last night, it aired for sixteen nights with back to back episodes. This was a series I've wanted to watch since it began but thought it'd be better to wait until it finished, now that it has I'm right on it as two episodes have already been viewed. Will be having the recaps for the first four shows hopefully this Friday, kind of a sluggish start but the second episode was really intense and what a cliffhanger it left us with.
 Won't go into the details now as you'll be able to read about them in a few days from now. Didn't see much of Eun-Bin in the first show but plenty of her in the second, that first episode was mainly introducing the two main male characters and setting up the first story. The drama began on September 4th, on August 29th there was a press conference for the show. It was held at the Amris Hall in Times Square, Seoul and most of the main characters were in attendance. Plenty of fine pics here of Yeo-Wool, her name in the drama, plus after them check out a video of the event.

Yuka Ogura: 2018 Magazine scans #5 plus calendar event pics and video....




 Kind of forgot about Yuka a bit to the fury of many viewers probably as she's turned out to be one of the most popular gals I've introduced the past year. Have five terrific mag spreads for today but there are some from July and August that aren't included and may have them in her next post.
 On October 13th Yuka was at an event for her 2019 calendar which I think may be her first one. At the top is a video of the event and have many pics of it here with the top two being the front and back covers, like many models she does dress way more conservatively at events. In the video and some of the pics you can see that Yuka is enjoying a glass of champagne, she was finally legal to drink about two months ago. EDIT: Of course it's been deleted....














 On to the spreads which as mentioned total five and most are on the big side as there's fifty pics. First off is this set from the September issue of Cyzo and Yuka does look a tad different.









 Fine set here from edition #44 of WPB and these next four spreads have outtake pics from Yuka's calendar which is probably tremendous.









 Yuka often is the cover girl of a magazine and she has the honor for the last three with this set being from the October 24th issue of Weekly Shonen.














 Not sure if any gravure model has appeared in as many mags as Yuka has the past two years though her acting career is picking up a bit of steam as she's been in three dramas and two films this year. This jaw-dropping set is from the October 30th issue of Flash.











 Whew, that bottom pic is Hall of Fame material along with so many others today such as the first one in the post. Final breathtaking Yuka spread is another cover edition and is from the October 1st Young Magazine, after the pics check out a short video of the photo shoot.
