The New A-List: Asia (2007)

What’s popping:

Loads, as the one-hour entertainment documentary brings you the hottest Asian A-listers of today.

Lee Jun-ki

From Bollywood’s Aishwarya Rai to the talented Zhang Ziyi and heartthrobs like Takeshi Kaneshiro and Chang Chen, the program is a showcase of notable Asian talents.

Jun Ji-hyun

Of course, the show wouldn’t be complete (or mentioned in this blog) without our favourite Hallyu stars! And three of them are given the nod here – Rain, Lee Jun-ki and Jun Ji-hyun!

The Energizer Bunny

And who are the Top 3 Asian stars blazing their way to A-list-dom? They are none other than the Energizer Bunny a.k.a. Rain of Korea (whoo hoo!), Edison Chen of Hong Kong (he's actually Canadian) and Oscar-nominated actress Rinko Kikuchi of Japan.

The plot:

Entertainment documentary about the A-list Asian stars of today. Comments and opinions are from TV personalities and filmmakers. Among them are Korean-American talk show host May Lee and Hong Kong’s David Wu.

My finger took on a life of its own during the Rain segment,
