I feel like Park Min Young has so many remakes associated with Japan. She’s either been in K-drama remakes of J-doramas the most recent being Confidence Queen or her dramas have been remade in Japan such as Marry My Husband or her drama is simply insanely popular in Japan like What’s Wrong with Secretary Kim. That’s great for her and … Continue reading →
Lol, if this drama isn’t set up solely to be a love triangle, to the degree that the first teaser is only the love triangle. jTBC has released the first look at upcoming rom-com K-drama The Practical Guide to Love adapted from the webtoon Efficient Dating for Singles and it’s an old school throwback to the very set up that … Continue reading →
So I give stars ample opportunity to change my mind about him or her but in the case of Lee Jin Wook it’s been over twenty years and a dozen K-dramas and still this actor does nothing for me. There are other stars I’ve loved in K-dramas who have stopped acting and/or left the industry and it’s just weird he’s … Continue reading →
So the drama title is stylized exactly to read The WONDERfools, soon to air in 2026 on Netflix and starring Park Eun Bin and Cha Eun Woo. I can’t even describe what this drama is about better than Netflix itself with this blurb – “A goofy group of townies stumbles into superpowers and fights rising evil as doomsday panic grows … Continue reading →
So my first thought was this pairing isn’t working for me. But then I saw that it is adapted from a C-drama and that the set up is older woman-young man then I guess this casting makes sense. K-ent is reporting that Park Min Young and Yook Sung Jae are in talks for a new romance K-drama titled Nine to … Continue reading →
Okay, I am so sat for this K-drama! Next week on January 16th is the premiere of Netflix K-drama Can This Love be Translated, starring Kim Sun Ho and Go Yoon Jung in a project that was announced two years ago so it’s been on my radar since. She’s a top actress filming what appears to be a cross-boarder romance … Continue reading →
The 2026 new year is off to a sad start in K-ent as today January 5th in South Korea it was confirmed that award winning veteran actor Ahn Sung Ki has passed way. He was 74 years ago and in okay health, but fell ill and into a coma five days ago after reportedly choking on food. It is likely … Continue reading →
With the arrival of 2026 I hope real life is filled with positivity and drama world drops mostly good dramas. One of the more high profile K-dramas is the SBS medical series Doctor X: Age of the White Mafia with Kim Ji Won as a remake of the same name older J-dorama. She attended the year end SBS drama awards … Continue reading →
K-star IU has proven her chops from idol singer to award winning actress over her fifteen years in the industry so she’s fine to take on fluffier dramas to change up her works. But her male lead in upcoming MBC tentpole 2026 K-drama Perfect Crown (21st Century Prince’s Wife) is Byun Woo Seok who had one of the biggest breakouts … Continue reading →
I think the gumiho and human romance K-drama has hit double digits or at least close enough with the addition next month of SBS drama No Tail to Tell (Human From Today). I can count watching at least half a dozen myself and there are smatterings of it built into other dramas, but this Korean folklore and superstitious myth of … Continue reading →
I did a double take when I saw this casting news because both stars are names I’ve not seen in awhile in recent year K-dramas. This is totally an old school casting and in a sports drama to boot, feels like it could be attempting another Hot Stove League. News reports say that Kim Rae Won and UEE have been … Continue reading →
I’m so glad this drama is on Netflix, or even cable would be okay. As long as its not on terrestrial television in South Korea at least I can tune out the howls of outrage from any K-netizen that wants to protest less than perfect Kim Sun Ho back on the small screen. With Netflix airing Can This Love be … Continue reading →
I was worried that the back-to-back soul swap sageuk airing of K-dramas Moon River on MBC transitioning to To My Beloved Thief on KBS might steal the latter’s thunder by being a second to arrive problem. But right now with Moon River ending this weekend and Beloved Thief ramping up to its first week of January premiere I’m feeling like … Continue reading →
