It’s a thriller called Made in Korea set in the 1970’s revolving around the economic development of the country and the drug trade underbelly along with the dogged legal system. Binnie is playing … Continue reading →
Awwwww, I love this cameo reunion and it’s also an inversion of their prior roles. Award winning chameleon actor Oh Jung Se will be making a guest appearance in this weekend’s tvN drama Queen of Tears which will reunite him with his former onscreen costar Kim Soo Hyun. The two very memorably played brothers in It’s Okay to Not be … Continue reading →
Okay, I’m old enough to remember when this very idea was done before and how it rocketed a certain actor to stratospheric heights. Cue Stephen Chow in the eternal classic that is HK-movie Fight Back to School and we all just want to see an elite cop pretending to be a high school student don’t we. Well K-drama will be … Continue reading →
This is an unfortunate case of reel world scheduling bucking up against real life timing. The tvN drama Resident Playbook (Wise Resident Life) is the younger version spin-off drama of the hit series Hospital Playlist which had two seasons. Resident Playbook headlines super buzzy young actress Go Yoon Jung and a bevy of up-and-coming younger stars like Shin Si Ah, … Continue reading →

I love when a star speaketh not just the truth but what the vast majority of audience members are thinking. Leading lady Kim Nam Joo was out promoting her new drama Wonderful World this week and was a guest on a variety show and was asked about her working with Cha Eun Woo. She explained that once she explained to … Continue reading →
There are cases of stars getting cancelled or in trouble with the law and we stop seeing them onscreen, but other times stars just slowly stop acting and there are too many to count and I have plenty of faves on that list. Recently two actresses gave interviews explaining why each has been MIA on the small screen for years. … Continue reading →
The timing couldn’t have been better for Disney+ to premiere a new K-drama right after its male lead dominated all the K-ent news earlier in the week for a very cute and happy dating reveal. The drama The Impossible Heir with Lee Jae Wook, Lee Jun Young, and Hong Soo Joo was dropped today and honestly Lee Jae Wook’s dating … Continue reading →
I have a soft spot for K-dramas that deal with time travel or soul switching but used in a way that gives the leads more time with family and resolving unfinished business. 17 Again, Hello It’s Me, and Twinkling Watermelon are a few recent faves of mine. Upcoming tvN drama Lovely Runner (Running Away with Sun Jae on My Back) … Continue reading →
So the Queen herself Kim Ji Won and the Tears himself Kim Soo Hyun are just two totally different family background people trying to make a marriage work in upcoming tvN drama The Queen of Tears.

In You From Another Star it benefitted Yoo In Na and … Continue reading →

I’m sorry not sorry I posted these two stars together but both cameos came out in the news on the same day so it’s just easier to squeeze it into one post. I do not care about their past personal life connection whatsoever, both … Continue reading →
