The IU and Byun Woo Seok romance drama with the fictional modern day Joseon prince and his chaebol arranged marriage wife comes with loads of expectations thanks to the big … Continue reading →
The toggling of K-dramas between medical and legal themes keeps happening because when these dramas tend to have a higher chance of doing well. MBC is planning a new medical K-drama titled Mind Doctor, adapted from a webtoon. An offer is out to Kang Ha Neul for the male lead and if he accepts will be a great choice, plus … Continue reading →
This postponement isn’t anything to be alarmed by but is worth noting in case fans were expecting it to drop sooner than it now will. K-drama Love Doctor with Kim So Hyun and Choo Young Woo will now air in October 2026 rather than the original August time slot in the summer. The delay is due to the filming schedule … Continue reading →
So this is not the news I was hoping to hear, I was ready for this drama to be shelved for a lot longer. At least until Kim Soo Hyun‘s scandal has more definitive resolution, right now it’s just him denying the allegations that he dated then underaged Kim Sae Ron who later committed suicide after her own career downfall. … Continue reading →
The start of 2026 in K-drama land hasn’t been smooth. Netflix had a good showing with Can This Love be Translated but shortly thereafter male lead Kim Sun Ho got into a tax evasion scandal. Only Ji Sung and The Judge Returns is doing well in K-drama land but not enough to generate stronger buzz. So SBS really needs to … Continue reading →
This feels like the perfect role reversal and one that will likely appeal to K-viewers. Shin Ye Eun is in talks for the K-drama High School Queen, adapted from a webtoon about a former Joseon era warrior queen reincarnated into a modern day high school student who uses her martial arts skills and powerful presence to punish bullies. She’s such … Continue reading →
This drama Boyfriend on Demand looks so silly but could be fun if done in a tongue-and-cheek way. But I fear female lead Jisoo, doing the heavy lifting from her role, will get slammed yet again for her acting and diction. It’s like she keeps trying to be an actress and K-netizens keep refusing to accept her lol. This drama … Continue reading →
I feel like the mid-2010s just whooshed right back and erased a decade with this casting, lol. Nothing wrong with it but it does feel old school. Seo In Guk and Krystal have been cast in romance K-drama An Officer Worker Who Sees Fate, adapted from the same name webtoon. He plays a guy destined to become a fortune teller … Continue reading →
The follow up project after a breakout hit for any star is always interesting news and comes with heightened scrutiny. With great power comes greater responsibility lol. K-actor Lee Chae Min ended last year on a career high thanks to K-drama Bon Appétit, Your Majesty (The Tyrant’s Chef) which was one of the biggest hits of 2025. Now he’s in … Continue reading →
We should have gotten these first lol. What’s a good romance drama promo without starting with the romance aspect of it, namely stills of the leads in one frame. The two newly released drama stills from Perfect Crown finally show something happening with leads IU and Byun Woo Seok. His character has been quite two-dimensional for me in the promos … Continue reading →
The Cha Eun Woo tax evasion scandal started before his fellow agency mate Kim Sun Ho but that one wrapped up quickly (admission and apology and payment of taxes) while his seems to still be ongoing for whatever reason. For scandals its a double edged sword of concluding quickly to move on faster or drag on until hopefully the next … Continue reading →
There are many shelved dramas in both K-ent and C-ent, ones that have never seen the light and others released quietly a long time after whatever scandal halted its release. The high profile big budget Signal 2 (The Second Signal), the long awaited second season to the hit 2016 tvN drama has likely joined that ignominious group. This week tvN … Continue reading →
Oh I’m down with this unexpected and fresh K-drama pairing. Kim Sung Cheol and Jin Ki Joo are in talks for a new medical K-drama titled Sleeping Doctor (or Doctor Sleep) described as a healing drama. Both will play doctors, with her as someone who has experienced sexual assault and learned to overcome it, but is also plagued by narcolepsy … Continue reading →
