SETTV is finally dropping the motherlode of trailers and teaser for its upcoming Sunday night TW-drama Drunken to Love You. The more I see of this drama the more I want to watch it. While it don’t think it can get close to the incredible ratings Fated to Love You garnered (which I attribute to the breakout of Ethan Ruan … Continue reading →
The preview for episode 8 of 49 Days doesn’t tell us anything of import, but what the heck, at least the characters continue to intersect more and more. Other than Scheduler, I do not like any character in this drama (though I adore most of the actors). Kang is like an 8 year old boy with his emotionally stunted and … Continue reading →
SBS released a slightly longer preview for tomorrow’s episode 7 of 49 Days. I’m not quite sure if it reveals anything dramatic, but it has more scenes with Han Kang, which always perks me right up. One thing I can say for sure about 49 Days, which is I have no clue what’s going to happen and how OTPs will … Continue reading →
What a fun, fresh, and creative promotional concept coming out of cable network tvN for its upcoming drama Manny. The teaser trailer is out, and (1) it’s totally a teaser, since you barely glimpse lead Seo Ji Seok, and (2) it’s done guerilla advertising style by asking people on the street if they know what a “manny” is – the … Continue reading →
I asked for a game-changer at the end of my recap for episode 6 of 49 Days, and the drama gods may have answered me based on the written preview for episode 7. I do like how ALL the rules in 49 Days are beyond arbitrary and capricious, changing as quickly as the wind. Hey, if you go fantasy, and … Continue reading →
That noise you hear? That’s the sound of a Koala screaming from wanting something but being told she has to wait. SETTV released the second trailer for Drunken to Love You, and my newfounded appreciated for Rainie Yang almost turned into a full-blown girl crush after watching this more romantic and emotional trailer as compared to the slapstick adorableness of … Continue reading →
I must say that the sight of a handsome man with a duster in his hand is strangely alluring. I have no clue why Han Kang is cleaning, but if it continues to be relevant to moving the plot forward in 49 Days, then by all means clean away! In all the previews I’ve translated this week, there is not … Continue reading →
I find myself in a lull between dramas when nothing excites me, and 49 Days is the perfect easygoing drama to follow at this time. While I grouse about the things I find lacking about it (so far), it nevertheless has been a breezy watch that leaves me curious about the greater story to be told while never anxiously awaiting … Continue reading →
So Ridiculously Cute! I think I about laughed myself to death with this first preview of Drunken to Love You. It looks beyond stupid, yet I’m charmed by its earnestly good-natured spirit. Rainie Yang looks to continue her wow-the-Koala-campaign and is just thumbing her nose at me for not liking her until recently. And Joseph Chang, who is not conventionally … Continue reading →
Looks like SBS is being extra nice with respect to releasing written previews early. Too bad the previews are very short and not terribly revealing. Boo, I want juicy previews. It’s hard to say how this week’s episodes will steer the drama, but I’m hoping to see more of Yi Kyung’s story. A combination of Nam Gyu Ri’s bad acting … Continue reading →
I’ll be honest and confess that the single best scene in the first two episodes of 49 Days was when Min Ho opened that hotel room door and pulled In Jung inside, and the look of angst they gave each other. Until then, it was all people talking about feelings and emotions in order to set up the story proper, … Continue reading →
Midas has slowly but steadily been getting better and better. I’ve simply been too busy to post more about it, but rest assured that I am watching it and have quite a lot of thoughts about the story and the characters. I started watching Midas for Jang Hyuk, and I’m staying for the side stories. I am way more interested … Continue reading →
Will 49 Days be good? I sure hope so, because I need a K-drama fix and lately not a single drama has been sticking. *pouts* I do like soul-switching stories, and really enjoyed Who Are You? despite the iffy acting and shaky chemistry between the leads. I’m gearing up to watch the first episode now, and the preview for episode … Continue reading →
