I’ve been watching recently finished tvN Mon-Tues drama Twinkling Watermelon since it premiered and it has been one of the most consistently satisfying K-dramas in recent memory. Starring Ryeo Un, Choi Hyun Wook, Seol In Ah, and Shin Eun Soo, the drama is like a reverse Hello, Me! time travel with the son going back to the past to meet … Continue reading →
If I were the crew of MBC drama My Dearest I wouldn’t want a wrap party I would want to sleep for 3 days straight and get paid due overtime for the crazy filming conditions. This weekend Saturday night is the airing of the final episode of My Dearest and from the SNS posts of the cast it was filming … Continue reading →
I saw these new stills just after I finished watching The Marvels and it was exactly the eye bleach I needed to erase the image of Park Seo Joon as Prince Yan from my brain forever. Netflix released a batch of new drama stills for upcoming period creature feature series Gyeongseong Creature that sees Park Seo Joon and Han So … Continue reading →
It must’ve been a lackluster year in romance and rom-com K-dramas because of the top three favorite drama couples only one came from that genre. It goes to Junho and Yoona in rom-com King the Land, which brought in buzz and ratings for the network and lots of the love for the leads even if the drama itself was just … Continue reading →
Rom-coms are never big budgeted to begin with but when I saw the poster and first trailer for My Man is Cupid I just felt bad for the cast involved. This looks like a cast off project that leads Jang Dong Yoon, Nana, and Park Ki Woong picked up either to pay the bills or fill time on their open … Continue reading →
Ooooh, this is juicy and a true power struggle with stakes. I don’t think non-Chinese dialect speakers understand the genesis of the dub in C-dramas and even earlier with HK-dramas and TW-dramas. The issue is that the Chinese ethnic groups have so many dialects some of which are unintelligible to each other that a universal dialect is needed to at … Continue reading →
The first K-dramas to promulgate the Hallyu trend were the seasons dramas, namely Winter Sonata which was actually the second in the series with the first being Autumn in My Heart, then WS, followed by Summer Scent and then Spring Waltz. It was story secondary to the seasonal theme and backdrop but the visuals when combined properly with the right … Continue reading →
It’s the end of the Answer Me 1988 real life couple era, as popular young stars Ryu Jun Yeol and Hyeri confirmed they have split up. The couple dated for 6 years after filming the drama together and it was a balm for drama shippers as their characters were beloved to end up together onscreen but didn’t so the off … Continue reading →
So Netflix is borrowing a page from the split airing of The Glory and airing Gyeongseong Creature in two parts but lucky for us viewers the two parts will only be two weeks apart rather than three months again. The first drama poster and teaser preview just dropped and it’s an actual creature feature, all pun aside I didn’t know … Continue reading →
The MBC weekend old school sageuk romance drama My Dearest has been worthy of its prestige roots and shining through the extraordinary acting of leads Namgoong Min and Ahn Eun Jin. I’ve put this drama on my binge watch list due to being addicted to other dramas during both periods of its split run and now Part 2 is winding … Continue reading →
Netizens are clamoring for the arrival of SBS fantasy romance drama My Demon and I can’t blame them. It looks soooooo up my alley but I’m not dying for it since I have so many other dramas on my plate so yay for that. There are two new character posters and a new preview that has me giggling over the … Continue reading →
Okay where I can donate money to make this happen like RIGHT NOW. Because the pairing of Park Bo Young and Jung Hae In in a rom-com seems straight out of fan fiction that I’m not even creative enough to write but will forever thank the drama gods if it existed. She’s a rom-com queen in both dramas and movies … Continue reading →
Well this is a legit competition and I’m glad to see it was a decision made that went down to the final selection. Last week it was announced that Zhou Ye and Cheng Lei would headline the C-drama adaptation of Legend of the Female General based on the novel. She’s been leveling up as the female lead in one drama … Continue reading →
