jTBC just premiered Strong Girl Nam Soon last weekend, the follow up drama to the 2017 Strong Girl Bong Soon both centered around a family of very very very physically strong women who all look super feminine. The OG leads Park Bo Young and Park Hyung Sik are making cameo appearances in Nam Soon and from the stills just released … Continue reading →
Gosh, I remember when I first got into K-dramas it was the visuals that hooked me more than the plots and characters because the industry really understood that a very handsome man and a very beautiful woman falling in love would be worth checking out even if the plot goes to pot. The downfall of the Hallyu drama is that … Continue reading →
K-dramas have been on a lull for me last month but I’m loving A Good Day to be a Dog (so silly and cute) and now I also have a date set for SBS fantasy romance My Demon with Kim Yoo Jung and Song Kang. SBS released the first teaser today and confirmed a November 24th premiere which seems still … Continue reading →
There is a certain synergy with Yoo Seung Ho picking a found family with a grandma drama as his next project. His debut work is the tearjerker The Way Home and now he’s signed on for the K-drama I’m Home opposite wonderful veteran grannie Na Moon Hee. She runs a family stationary store outside a high school and unexpectedly loses … Continue reading →
As a dog mom and a lover of rom-coms I’m feeling more and more excited for upcoming KBS drama A Good Day to be a Dog. Adapted from the same name webtoon, it’s got a silly premise but with the right leads can totally pull it off. The latest poster has leads Park Kyu Young and Cha Eun Woo in … Continue reading →
This feels like a full circle casting at the right time for K-actress Suzy. She’s long shed the idol-actress moniker as it’s been years since she was the idol side of things and in the most recent past year she got lots of praise and also awards for her acting in the K-drama Anna. So her taking on the role … Continue reading →
It’s well known that K-actress Son Ye Jin loves to play golf but her beaming smile and radiating demeanor when playing golf on a variety show that aired this week is clearly not for the love of the sport. During the round she chit chatted a lot about her life now as a mom and wife, she got married last … Continue reading →
So the first love gets a second chance concept has been done umpteenth times in K-dramas and most recently had a really nuanced take with Our Beloved Summer. Another one is in the works with the quirky title I am Against My Love and is getting buzz for being the project helmed by the PD of Descendants of the Sun, … Continue reading →
So the summer of 2023 was not nice to Yang Yang, going in with one of the most promoted C-dramas of the busy season and coming out with only complaints from viewers the Fireworks of My Heart. At least he’s been filming the upcoming xianxia C-drama A Record of a Mortal’s Guide to Immortality and perhaps can adjust his acting … Continue reading →
It’s clear that K-actress Park Eun Bin is top of her age group class among actresses after Extraordinary Attorney Woo, for her next drama Castaway Diva I’ve rarely seen such a solo female-lead centric story and promos for anyone else in that same range. The drama is scheduled for October 2023 in the Sat-Sun time slow after Arthdal Chronicles 2: … Continue reading →
So idol turned actor Ro Woon is now going to be an actor full time and it’s only fitting that the news comes out when he’s pulling drama double duty. His currently airing drama Destined with You will be followed near seamlessly next month with the sageuk romance drama The Matchmaker (Wedding Battle) where he and female lead Choi Yi … Continue reading →
I love a positive breakout story and the male lead of Moving definitely earned it. Young actor Lee Jung Ha went from just starting out his entertainment career with small parts in a few dramas to headlining the buzziest K-drama of 2023. To play bumbling sweet natured fly boy Kim Bong Seok, he put on 30 kgs of weight to … Continue reading →
I swear that tvN drama Castaway Diva (Diva of the Deserted Island) was one of those still far away dramas but with the first teaser released this weekend it’s coming next month in October. That’s wild but not as wild as the premise that an island bumpkin girl gets lost on an even more deserted island for years and years … Continue reading →
