Hul, talk about so weird I actually had to read the synopsis twice to process and also that this is apparently a wacky comedic of sorts and not some horror story. Cha Eun Woo will continue his drama streak after True Beauty, up next is playing the second male lead in fantasy supernatural drama Island and he may have yet … Continue reading →
I’m psyched for tvN drama Cliffhanger (Mount Jiri or Jirisan) but actually didn’t feel it was trending this high on the K-netizens wish list. A recent online research firm poll of 1000 people ages 20 and up ask “what is your most anticipated K-drama as well as male actor and female actress for the remainder of 2021”? Cliffhanger was the … Continue reading →
The live-action part of upcoming K-drama Yumi’s Cells really does overcome the lackluster visuals in the promo stills and poster, once leads Kim Go Eun and Ahn Bo Hyun are onscreen then their characters look less awkwardly styled and more quirky fashion sense. I think it’s because their natural attractiveness and ability to act comes to the forefront and viewers … Continue reading →
I found the first official poster for upcoming KBS romance drama Dali and the Cocky Prince (Dal Ri and Gamjatang) bizarrely terrible but thankfully the first teaser swung things back to the positive side albeit in a very one-sided way. Male lead Kim Min Jae is ON FIRE, he totally stole the 30 second teaser with his animated exuberance, and … Continue reading →
Okay, I totally love the character posters for upcoming sageuk Red Sky (Lovers of the Red Sky or Hong Chun Gi) but probably not for the reason SBS wants me to. I don’t think its any good or visually all that appealing but holy is it great for dissection. It’s like the drama can’t figure put what genre or vibe … Continue reading →
I would pick a crash and burn over just a meh project, at least when it comes to K-drama since the former is memorable and the latter part of the scrum of dramas that come and go. tvN this weekend saw the end of The Devil Judge (Demon Judge), totally primed for ratings and buzz thanks to the cast of … Continue reading →
The pure data analytics available from Google search terms are exactly that, the number of times a word was typed into a search bar and pressed go. No subjectively whatsoever. So it’s definitely been an eventful year so far into 2021 in K-ent (and really in multiple other Asian ent industries) so the recently released Google top search terms for … Continue reading →
A cohesive picture is always more telling about a story than just reading a chapter at a time. Perhaps jTBC drama Nevertheless should have been a Netflix produced series where all the episodes drop at once. It never delivered on the buzzy lead hype of Song Kang and Han So Hee pairing up and the push-and-pull dynamics of a realistic … Continue reading →
Ah, I totally see the interpersonal set up of the core three leads in SBS sageuk Red Sky (Lovers of the Red Sky or Hong Chun Gi) just like in The Moon Embraces the Sun. Male lead Ahn Hyo Seob is the stickler upstanding male lead, Kim Yoo Jung is the charming girl every guy would fall for, and Gong … Continue reading →
If the goal was the make the worst rom-com drama poster ever then the production of upcoming KBS drama Dal Ri and Gamjatang have majorly succeeded woo hoo! Because this is one terrible, horrible, no good poster, doing zero justice to either leads Kim Min Jae or Park Kyu Young. This reminds me of the same vibe as the very … Continue reading →
jTBC college romance and bad decisions drama Nevertheless is wrapping up its run with a less than hoped for ratings but it got plenty of buzz from beginning to now end for a variety of reasons both good and bad. That it starred the two IT young stars of 2021 in Han So Hee and Song Kang was definitely the … Continue reading →
Well it’s certainly a double dose of good news for Im Soo Hyang and probably a karma payment for her last drama being neigh unwatchable (and pulled off streaming sites in Korea) due to her male lead bullying scandal. She has just been cast as the female lead opposite So Ji Sub in his comeback drama in four years Dr. … Continue reading →
