Now, I told a commenter/sometimes poster I would try some good, wholesome “Eddie Shore” blogging…

by Robert Koehler on June 19, 2012

in Korean Tabloid Crap

But one last post before I do.

You know the times are a’changin’ when the Segye llbo can make it through an entire story without mentioning that the dude in this photo spread posing with Lee Hyo-ri is a foreigner.

A rare post that provides eye candy to readers of all genders and sexual orientations.

You got to love where his right hand is.

Robert,

As Jeffery noted, thank you from all of us, even from the ones who don’t find LHR particularly alluring. My Calvin Kleins should look as good on me…

Lest we not forget taste… some of us are “Guess” men.

Perhaps ethnicity not mentioned because it’s that sort of Korean news writing where you deliberately avoid mentioning the obvious so as to not make the main subject of the story look bad.

And I mean that in all seriousness. It would’ve had to have been in the headline if mentioned at all. It’s entirely within the realm of possibility that the powers that manage her specifically asked that it not be mentioned.

It’s been done before, the jeans, sexy posing with the wegooknamja on the sofa – by Shin Mina, that’s why.

And Shin Mina and Hyori are both definitely natural.

OMG, those awful lines, that awful voiceover “we hope that Shin Mina’s blah blah sexiness radiates all over the world”

Robert, I’m concerned about this Eddie Shore promise. What does this mean? Can I put my own request in for more Jerry Springer style content?

And Lee Hyori is my favourite Korean celebrity. She seems like the most “normal” girl of the lot. I also dig that she’s a bit older than the teenage k-pop set and is still killing it.

Thanks for the Shin Mina link, Yuna. We’re very much pro-Shin Mina here at the Marmot’s Hole. We’re also pro-Cho Sun-hee, too. I’m guessing it was Cho Sun-hee working that shoot. Sounded like her, anyway.

I’ll try to sneak some tabloid stuff in when I can.

As hypocritical as it makes me, I do find something disturbing about those pictures. Maybe it’s not that he’s white, but that he just looks… evil. Maybe if it were James May, I’d feel better about it.
