If there is one fallen celeb I want to yeet himself right off the celeb stage it would be Big Bang‘s Seungri. Alas while he may never have a famous career again I can see him returning to all the dirty money he made over years and continuing to make more dough behind the scenes in private endeavors, so that’s … Continue reading →
This is the last Netflix K-drama to air from that huge batch announced at the beginning of 2021, most of which went on to global viewership exposure with Squid Game being the most famous. All of Us are Dead is a high school setting zombie K-drama with a relatively unknown/rising young cast adapted from the same name webtoon. It dropped … Continue reading →
It’s kinda ironic that after all that hullabaloo around jTBC Sat-Sun drama Snowdrop it will likely end with a whimper and a sigh. No one protesting and not much people watching left. It’s okay though, the ardent fans can still cheer on their Jisoo and the casual fans hopefully get a satisfying ending for those who like the story. I’ve … Continue reading →
Wow, I haven’t heard this drama mentioned in quite some time and honestly I feel like every single actor and actress involved has moved on completely by now. K-ent is reporting that the production company behind fantasy sageuk Arthdal Chronicles has licensed the IP to produce a video game and also a manhwa story. It belies the question on who … Continue reading →
Oh gosh this is so so lovely. I think any viewer who thinks that sometimes Park Shin Hye doesn’t express believable love onscreen with certain leading men can rest assured that it’s not on her, because she absolutely is in love with her husband actor Choi Tae Joon with what we see in these two pictures. Same goes for him, … Continue reading →
So this show is not being billed as a K-drama in the traditional sense, upcoming Apple TV drama Pachinko is based on a New York Times bestselling novel by a Korean-American writer with a story starting in post-war Korea and then moving to Japan and the US following four generations of a Korean family. I would say the Japan setting … Continue reading →
This is definitely new year new start for K-actor Jang Dong Yoon. He was supposed to have had a fantastic 2021 with the highly anticipated big budget zombie sageuk Joseon Exorcist and that turned into him taking an extended hiatus until the whole cancellation brouhaha died down. This year he’s coming back with the rom-com drama My Man is Cupid … Continue reading →
The ratings for SBS Mon-Tues romance Our Beloved Summer would have been okay had the drama aired on cable network like tvN but being a prime time drama it is undeniably low and not what was expected for a high profile quality project starring two successful movie actors in Choi Woo Shik and Kim Da Mi. The ratings started with … Continue reading →
I’ve been shuffling around the house a lot this winter because I don’t want to bundle up like I’m a squashmallow or turn on the heater and dry out my skin, but it really is cold from the bones out at times. It would be nice to have an alternative source of warmth like the Swoony male leads offer in … Continue reading →
I’ve had my eye on Lee Jun Young (Jun of U-Kiss) since I randomly decided to watch the really bad but inexplicably addicting idol drama Imitation last year. He’s also on the K-ent watch as a rising male actor who is poised to break out this year and I hope he does because I saw so much charisma and potential. … Continue reading →
K-actor Kim Nam Gil definitely owes SBS for giving him his first major male lead role in Bad Guy after he broke out with MBC drama Queen Seondeok. But the network bungled BG a bit by preempting it multiple times for sports coverage and each time it came back the episodes ratings would drop. It’s hard to watch a drama … Continue reading →
Once the leads are cast in dramas its out of my hands and I just pray it all works out. For age difference gapped leads I also hope the drama explains why their characters fall for each other (personality and situation) and also style them to look visually compatible. With upcoming jTBC drama Forecasting Love and Weather (Office Romance Cruelty), … Continue reading →
I feel like my boy Lee Seung Gi has spent the greater part of the last decade trying to prove he’s a “real” actor and he didn’t have to but I’m really happy he did. His first major part was in the Famous Chil Princesses, a daily drama, and then he followed that up with rom-coms Brilliant Legacy/Shining Inheritance and … Continue reading →
