This looks so ridiculous and absurd but coming from Kim Eun Seok I feel like there has to be more than what I’m seeing. Because what I’m seeing from the set up in the newly released teaser for Genie, Make a Wish is just…..bad lol.

So looking back it’s wild that 2012-2015 may have been THE heyday for K-dramas in terms of sheer quality when PD Shin Won Ho went back-to-back-to-back with Answer Me 1997, then Answer Me … Continue reading →
We have the first hit of the summer 2025 season for K-dramas and it’s not the legal drama that most thought would do better.

Oh wow this is going to be 100% the Kim Yoo Jung show lol. And judging from the first teaser it’s going to be dark, intense, and quite a full image transformation for her from the usual sweet girl to a total sociopath social climber. The drama is called Dear X adapted from the same name webtoon and is slated … Continue reading →
