Okay where I can donate money to make this happen like RIGHT NOW. Because the pairing of Park Bo Young and Jung Hae In in a rom-com seems straight out of fan fiction that I’m not even creative enough to write but will forever thank the drama gods if it existed. She’s a rom-com queen in both dramas and movies … Continue reading →
Well this is a legit competition and I’m glad to see it was a decision made that went down to the final selection. Last week it was announced that Zhou Ye and Cheng Lei would headline the C-drama adaptation of Legend of the Female General based on the novel. She’s been leveling up as the female lead in one drama … Continue reading →
I am ALWAYS going to be in the own voice dub camp, even with some stars whose voice I don’t like because it’s too high pitched or squeaky I still think it adds authenticity and uniqueness. Dylan Wang is reportedly a C-star who not only does his own voice but actively wants to do it and makes time for going … Continue reading →
So the promos for Disney+ drama Vigilante is all on the shoulders of the cast other than male lead Nam Joo Hyuk, who has enlisted in the army earlier this year. Never fear though because it’s a packed cast with Yoo Ji Tae, Lee Joon Hyuk, and Kim So Jin, adapted from the same name webtoon and arriving as the … Continue reading →
I don’t know if what makes Wonderland of Love work THIS HARD for me is a chicken (the leads and their acting) or the egg (the directing and the script) but goodness is this the most unexpected C-drama to emerge from the recent scrum of premieres to grab me by the gut and heart completely. There is When the Wind … Continue reading →
I feel like I’m in a stare down with MBC and it keeps calling my bluff that I will abandon this drama. Wednesday rom-com A Good Day to be a Dog only has 14 episodes and airs once a week and already MBC has pre-empted it once and will do so again this week. Episode 5 will have to wait … Continue reading →
Heeeeeelp me! There are so many dramas going on right now all of a sudden and I am so in over my head lol. Adding to the glut of K-dramas and C-dramas is period revenge and second chance drama Story of Kunning Palace, which was thisclose to airing earlier this year in May and decided to make its abrupt arrival … Continue reading →
So last week saw two doses of Song Kang drama previews, the romance laden My Demon and the death and destruction laden Sweet Home 2. I need a palate cleanser after the teaser for SH2 and what better than hottie demon Song Kang bickering cutely with haughty heiress Kim Yoo Jung. I love the new stills that hew closely to … Continue reading →
It’s a good last few days in C-ent as there are now more interesting C-dramas released to check out and fill the late fall void. Tencent premiered Wonderland of Love with Xu Kai and Jing Tian doing their best Romeo and Juliet in war torn Chinese kingdoms impression with likely lots of fighting standing in for flirting. Both are dealing … Continue reading →
So my love for screenwriter Park Hye Ryun is basically contrary to mainstream lol, I’m so invested in Pinocchio, While You Were Sleeping, and Start-Up, but her bigger hits are I Hear Your Voice and now Castaway Diva which I am enjoying but not rabid about. Her formula is still at work here to great success, an engaging and emotionally … Continue reading →
Last week saw the premiere of modern garment industry and fashion C-drama Rising with the Wind with Gong Jun and Zhong Chu Xi and its landed with a collective yawn. This has led to C-ent pundits to discuss how Gong Jun has basically exhausted all the buzz and firepower from his career elevating hit Word of Honor in 2021 without … Continue reading →
Next week on November 10th is the premiere of The Marvels and I don’t recall a MCU movie being as non-buzzy as this one. The talk of the downswing of Marvel movies has been going on for a few MCU movies now probably after Endgame since The Eternals but reportedly The Marvels is tracking at a lower opening than even … Continue reading →
After Cheng Lei got his breakout for My Journey to You there was talk of his leveling up to male lead and it’s here with the kick off filming of Legend of the Female General.
