January 2024 is a wrap and a big congrats to the first K-drama hit of the year with Marry My Husband. The latest episode 10 got a fitting 10.714% ratings, breaking double digits for the first time and really high numbers for a cable drama on tvN. This drama definitely got more negative news than positive pre-airing what with Park … Continue reading →
I really like this casting of the two young leads and feel like with the lack of liuliang baggage this could be a sleeper hit. Filming remains underway since late last year with period C-drama Legend of the Female General (锦月如歌 Jin Yue Ru Ge) starring Zhou Ye and Cheng Lei with both actually playing generals so it’s like a … Continue reading →
So this is in the news but also has been denied swiftly so take it for what it’s worth. K-ent reported today that award winning top young actress Park Eun Bin is in talks for her next drama Hyper Knife and the more interesting thing is that her salary will be a whopping 300 million won per episode. That’s about … Continue reading →
So after years of talks and planning, the K-drama remake of Goong (Princess Hours) is happening this year. Not sure if it will air this year but the filming is by all accounts definitely happening. The original is still beloved and for many just a wonderful fond memory of falling in love with K-dramas through Goong or one of its … Continue reading →
The shining winner of the weekend K-dramas (and by that I mean anything airing Fri-Sat or Sat-Sun) has to be MBC sageuk Knight Flower. The Honey Lee starring vehicle is nearly doubled in ratings since its premiere and the latest episode 6 got 12.5%. Prestige sageuk Captivating the King with Jo Jung Seok and Shin Se Kyung is steady in … Continue reading →
There are some stars one just vibes that his or her career is basically over and I sense that from K-actress Han Ye Seul. And I mean only her career as a leading lady in K-ent, she can still be a celebrity in many ways but the decade where she was a top leading drama actress is now ten years … Continue reading →
I can totally see K-actress Gong Hyo Jin working a lot in the next two years, what with her singer husband Kevin Oh currently serving in the military after enlisting for his service last month in December 2023. She has the big budget K-drama When Stars Talk opposite Lee Min Ho coming out sometime this year and now she’s in … Continue reading →
So one of the most high profile K-dramas of 2024 has kicked off production as male lead Kim Woo Bin posted a picture of his character name placard on the table of what appears to be the script reading for the drama Everything Will Come True. It’s written by ratings magnet and probably the most well known screenwriter in K-drama … Continue reading →
So this is a step up in all ways for me and I hope he accepts the role. Yeo Jin Gu is up for the male lead of K-drama Serenade (Saraenaedae) and if that drama title sounds familiar it’s the sageuk that was in talks with Jo Byung Gyu and he ended up not signing on for. It’s a lighter … Continue reading →
Dayum, Park Min Young deserves a you go girl but from all accounts the success of this K-drama is a group effort. tvN Mon-Tues drama Marry My Husband is a bona fide hit and deserves all the accolades as not going are the ratings continuing to go up there is a lot of buzz around it as well. Park Min … Continue reading →
So last week wasn’t just a some K-dramas ending, it was also the premiere of tvN weekend sageuk drama Captivating the King. The drama stars Jo Jung Seok as the King and Shin Se Kyung as the spy captivating him if we take the drama title literally but as cheesy as the title is the drama itself is a classic … Continue reading →
The K-dramas that started before the holidays season are one by one wrapping up and this weekend on jTBC the slice of life seaside drama Welcome to Samdalri ended with the final episode 16 getting a super high 12.399%.

When I first went into My Demon I noticed it’s weak spots and gaps but found the drama as a whole really engaging and worth watching. But as K-dramas are wont to do, as it went along it never got better and the weak parts started to weigh down the show to the point I FF-d the last few episodes … Continue reading →
