So another C-drama just started filming after the lunar new year holidays and it’s called Xiao Yao (逍遥 which means carefree). It stars Tan Song Yun as the titular Xiao Yao named female lead and Hou Ming Hao which for some reason evokes Hou Ming Hao and his last drama pairing with Zhou Ye in Back From the Brink. This … Continue reading →
I have a soft spot for K-dramas that deal with time travel or soul switching but used in a way that gives the leads more time with family and resolving unfinished business. 17 Again, Hello It’s Me, and Twinkling Watermelon are a few recent faves of mine. Upcoming tvN drama Lovely Runner (Running Away with Sun Jae on My Back) … Continue reading →
So the rumors that Dylan Wang is really trying to leave the idol drama world and enter the mainstream drama/movie land is definitely true as after his most recently filmed drama Guardians of the Dafeng he only has a movie in discussion and now this serious drama he just signed on for. The drama is called Confessions in the Dark … Continue reading →
Hahahaha, this casting is straight out of fan fiction but there is clearly is a shred of possibility as it’s making the rounds in C-drama casting rumors within the industry. There is talk of Xiao Zhan and Yang Zi doing a second go-around for the wuxia period drama The Year of the Book (书君年 Shu Jun Nian). I will believe … Continue reading →
So the Queen herself Kim Ji Won and the Tears himself Kim Soo Hyun are just two totally different family background people trying to make a marriage work in upcoming tvN drama The Queen of Tears.

So hit screenwriter Park Ji Eun isn’t just known for making entertaining and highly rated K-dramas that provide a swoony romance for the main leads, she’s also known for a string of well-written and sometimes even scene-stealing secondary leads and/or couples which has led to many a breakout opportunities. In You From Another Star it benefitted Yoo In Na and … Continue reading →
Omomomo, what big names are coming in for a surprise visit soon on the small screen. I’m sorry not sorry I posted these two stars together but both cameos came out in the news on the same day so it’s just easier to squeeze it into one post. I do not care about their past personal life connection whatsoever, both … Continue reading →
So K-actress Song Ha Yoon has been in the industry for 21 years (!!!) and has only just broken out, so she deserves to bask in this limelight and enjoy it for as long as she likes. She was interviewed for a post-drama chat after Marry My Husband finished this week and she expressed on living the role of Jung … Continue reading →
What a difference a few months and a hit drama makes, and for C-actress Tang Yan it’s literally night and day. She was on the downswing the last three years and even got mocked by her own fans for her agency released really fashionably cheesy pictures for her birthday. But after the C-drama Blossoms Shanghai came out last month in … Continue reading →
Holy drama gods am I so excited for this one. The rom-com K-drama Between Greetings kicked off filming this week as female lead Han Ji Min posted a picture of her at the script reading.

With C-drama Amidst a Snowstorm of Love with Wu Lei and Zhao Jin Mai, I feel like a mom who should be having fun watching their kid compete in a game but instead I zoned out but will perk up to clap loudly should he/she win the match kind of situation. The modern sports themed romance C-drama just wrapped its … Continue reading →
It’s finale week for tvN Mon-Tues drama Marry My Husband and hit series went into the final week weaker due to recent plot shenanigans but managed to end up a satisfying note. Two baddies got the transferred death fates and the third got jail time plus going crazy, so for a drama about a wronged woman getting revenge she certainly … Continue reading →
