I thought Reborn Rich would be a foundational boulder type of drama lasting through the ages but it seems after the polarizing last episode its taking on the ephemeral nature of most hits after the curtain falls.

Sooooooo this looks like either an epic fail or a wildly unexpected surprise. Netflix just dropped the first preview for rom-com K-drama Love to Hate You and I’m just perplexed my entire way through it.

I am loving all these additional tidbits for Netflix hit drama The Glory, making the behind-the-scenes look at the drama more compelling compared to what was seen in the final product.

C-drama Unchained Love has aired 22-episodes out of the total 36 so it’s into the final stretch of airing and I thought to check in.
