If anyone with eyes can tell me that I am somehow totally wrong for finding the first poster and teaser for the upcoming Genie, Make a Wish just the most terrible looking thing ever please share your take. Because I was making “ugh” faces from the moment this poster and preview dropped and even writing about it makes me want … Continue reading →
The beauty of the Answer Me/Reply series of three K-dramas was the family, the romance, the nostalgia, and the evoking of memories in the passage of time. So looking back it’s wild that 2012-2015 may have been THE heyday for K-dramas in terms of sheer quality when PD Shin Won Ho went back-to-back-to-back with Answer Me 1997, then Answer Me … Continue reading →
We have the first hit of the summer 2025 season for K-dramas and it’s not the legal drama that most thought would do better. There is the tvN drama Law and the City with Lee Jong Seok and Moon Ga Young which is doing decent numbers up to 7.705% in the last episode as it just ended. But it’s jTBC … Continue reading →
When K-dramas want to do the first love trope, which it does a lot and to mixed results, it definitely delivers on the visual. The sun dappled warm coziness of the first posters for upcoming jTBC romance My Youth is so pretty, and kudos for having the story feature two sets of couples. Song Joong Ki and Chun Woo Hee … Continue reading →
There are two new August weekend K-drama arrivals, neither of which particularly appeal to me in either subject matter or cast but would happily check out if I heard it was good. It’s now been three episodes for each and the ratings of MBC drama Mary Kills People with Lee Bo Young and Lee Min Ki are on an opposite … Continue reading →
This year 2025 was supposed to be a big year for Disney+ K-dramas, with the platform late last year holding a splashy star-studded media event in Singapore with the stars of the various on deck shows attending. Then in March of this year right before the biggest of all its K-dramas Knock Off was about to air the next month, … Continue reading →

Oh wow this is going to be 100% the Kim Yoo Jung show lol. And judging from the first teaser it’s going to be dark, intense, and quite a full image transformation for her from the usual sweet girl to a total sociopath social climber. The drama is called Dear X adapted from the same name webtoon and is slated … Continue reading →
Well if it isn’t the K-drama screenwriter Queen and also the Queen of doing new things. Kim Eun Sook most recently of The Glory, The King, Eternal Monarch, Mr. Sunshine, and Goblin fame is reportedly already set for her next drama, despite the fantasy romance one she recently filmed Genie, Make a Wish with Suzy and Kim Woo Bin not … Continue reading →
It’s been awhile since I’ve seen either leads Suzy and Kim Sun Ho on the small screen, but both will be back soon. Suzy and Kim Sun Ho has started filming the K-drama Delusion, but before that arrives both have other K-dramas already completed that should air first. She has Genie, Make a Wish with Kim Woo Bin and he … Continue reading →
So I thought this drama would be in production by now considering it was announced awhile ago with the casting of Kim Ji Won as the lead, but it’s not yet started and even adding additional cast members seems slower than usual. This week actor Kim Woo Seok was announced and joins veteran Lee Jung Eun in the drama Doctor … Continue reading →

The first poster and trailer is out for the K-drama starring Ma … Continue reading →
Next month in August the sageuk romance with a modern girl time-travel element Bon Appétite, Your Majesty will premiere on tvN in the Sat-Sun time slot.

The drama stars Yoona as … Continue reading →
