So this is really happening and with this main foursome cast, I never could have fantasy cast this lol. K-ent is reporting that the K-drama adaptation of webtoon Remarried Empress will air on Disney+ and is slated to be a 10-episode drama. Please drop it all at once Disney+ rather than one episode or a few episodes a week, pretty … Continue reading →
I think the safe best is to soft launch the promos of Resident Playbook and gauge the public appetite for a medical drama. It should be fine seeing as The Trauma Code: Heroes on Call was a big hit, but that drama was about ER type cases but this is more the slice-of-life of a med school student in residency … Continue reading →
K-actor Kim Soo Hyun isn’t just a top star domestically in South Korea, he’s also a top Hallyu star around almost all of East Asia and Southeast Asia with so many popular K-dramas of his that exported over to those countries for airing. He’s been consistently popular in Mainland China, but C-netizens unlike other groups have nearly immediately and collectively … Continue reading →
So the public won’t need to wait until next week as today Kim Soo Hyun and his agency Gold Medalist released its official statement on the allegations Kim Soo Hyun dated Kim Sae Ron when she was still underage. The statement is very long (translations will abound) but here I’ll just do the TL:DR: the statement admitted Kim Soo Hyun … Continue reading →
This is a David v. Goliath battle where even if David is a sleazy tabloid Youtube scandalmonger if this is all true then it’s doing God’s work in revealing the dark underbelly of top Korean star Kim Soo Hyun. Garo Sero Institute responded on this fourth day of the Kim Soo Hyun dated underaged Kim Sae Ron scandal to Gold … Continue reading →
This past weekend big budget Netflix exclusive K-drama When Life Gives You Tangerines premiered the first four episodes, with three more four episode drops on the subsequent Fridays to come. The theme is love, family, adversity, and life through the four seasons, literally and figuratively. The first poster of leads IU and Park Bo Gum they are school students in … Continue reading →
Hahahaha, OMG I’m dying at the ballsy and shameless response from Gold Medalist on behalf of Kim Soo Hyun. In the face of three days worth of mounting allegations and evidence that he dated now deceased actress Kim Sae Ron when she was still underaged and also contributed to her stress and worries with a debt collection notice after her … Continue reading →
I’ve covered so many wild fall from graces – drug use, prostitution, drunk driving, bullying, assault, tax evasion, and more – and cannot believe that the top drama actor from South Korea will also top the list for one of the grossest violations in pedophilia, i.e. romantically intimate with an underage person. I don’t know if those two actually had … Continue reading →
Well, unless Kim Soo Hyun and his agency Gold Medalist sues all the parties involved and gets a full retraction and apology, its hard to believe this was all made up and nothing happened with him and now deceased young actress Kim Sae Ron. Just saying it’s all lies is not enough with so much information out there and now … Continue reading →
The casting for this K-drama has turned into one of the wildest (and most intriguing) in recent years and this final piece in the foursome of leads is the cherry on top. K-actress Lee Se Young has joined the upcoming adaptation of manhwa Remarried Empress as the second female lead/antagonist Rashta. As a former child actress turned leading lady, this … Continue reading →
I know that When Life Gives You Tangerines is the prestige drama with Park Bo Gum as the lead but I’m looking forward more to his other drama Good Boy on jTBC. There are two new stills and also a network promos of a few of its upcoming dramas that include clips from Good Boy and it’s giving strong physical … Continue reading →
There is a new tvN weekend drama and it’s a world’s away from the budget and profile of its predecessor. The Potato Lab with Lee Sun Bin and Kang Tae Oh premiered this past weekend taking over for When the Stars Gossip and debuted with 1.705% and 1.811% ratings. That’s low but on par with what Stars did for the … Continue reading →
Normally I would say 3 hits and two flops is at least still a winning percentage but considering the magnitude of the sunk costs of the two failures it’s still not a track record K-dramas can boast of. With When the Stars Gossip ending, K-ent is doing yet another reflecting of how best to produce hits and it’s not by … Continue reading →
