Even before Jo Byung Gyu‘s bullying scandal he shot to fame in the ensemble cast of Sky Castle and then the lucky break with The Uncanny Counter.

It’s been a BANGER of an summer drama season so far in 2023. I am spoiled lol but appreciate every moment of it. Last week fantasy romance drama See You in My 19th Life ended its consistently plotted 12-episode run and this week SBS horror drama Revenant also wrapped with just 12-episodes. Revenant was my Fri-Sat backburner addiction, I relished … Continue reading →
