Netflix is devoting a lot of promo time still to Vincenzo which is a great investment as streaming allows the drama to stay hot on the site for longer than the network airing period. It’s been a month since the drama wrapped but it was such a meaty work I remain curious for more tidbits. Song Joong Ki along with … Continue reading →
It’s getting closer to Song Hye Kyo‘s return to the small screen with her romance drama Now, We are Breaking Up, which I figure will definitely have a breakup but probably also a get together.

I tend to see dating/breakup or marriage/divorce news from East Asian entertainment industries in close proximity, perhaps it’s the idea that a good news makes a couple with bad news want to release it so it gets less attention. Who knows. C-ent has two new singles as married acting couple Tong Li Ya and Chen Si Cheng announced on May … Continue reading →
It’s from one fire into another for idol-actor Taecyeon, he’s just wrapped Vincenzo a few weeks ago and is diving right into his next drama. He’s taking on another challenge after doing the psychopath villain role in Vincenzo, this time it’s the vaunted sageuk character that requires precise diction and a very authentic period vibe. We all know it’s a … Continue reading →
Oh how, like, a decade changes everything lol. TW-actor Roy Qiu is having a career best year in 2021, though he’s had plenty good ones before in his nearly 15 year long career.

Well this is a breath of much needed air. Upcoming jTBC Wed-Thurs drama Monthly House was sailing on the side of my peripheral watch list but has scooted smack in the middle thanks to a slew of right up my alley promos.

The cool sounding upcoming Netflix produced K-drama Glitch is adding to the cast around confirmed female lead Jeon Yeo Bin. She will be joined by Nana and Lee Dong Hwi, in what is billed as a weird, comedic, sci-fi drama about a woman searching for her long time boyfriend who disappeared in a haze of strange lights.

This is what I call a great great ancillary drama promotion tie in. Netflix is truly on a roll, picking up great K-drama picks to stream and pouring money and effort into promoting it. Last week the exclusive new series Move to Heaven dropped about a team who cleans up the belongings of people who have passed away. This week … Continue reading →
The Sat-Sun time slot remains tvN‘s most high profile and where it puts all the big name cast dramas, so right now there is Mine with Lee Bo Young and Kim Seo Hyung and funnily enough that drama will be followed by Lee Bo Young‘s real life hubby Ji Sung‘s upcoming The Devil Judge (Demon Judge). Mine feels like a … Continue reading →

My nearly 3 month long Wed-Thurs date with Lee Seung Gi is over, and zero regrets with the time spent. Unlike some of his stupider drama choices (*cough* Vagabond *cough*) this time tvn drama Mouse was too smart for its own good. It was like a math student who got the answer early on then trying to question and outthink … Continue reading →
JAW. DROP. Ok, I’m not sure what will top this for shocking dating/marriage reveal of 2021 but the bar has been set. The entirety of Wednesday in Japanese entertainment news was dominated by the announcement of marriage by 40 year old singer-actor Hoshino Gen and 32 year old actress Aragaki Yui. Like, in real life.
