Okay, this is totally the handiwork of the Kairos PD! Like, it has all the trappings of being just as awesome with a different twisty story. The new preview out is da bomb, so sleek and yet thrumming with just below the surface emotion. Ji Sung plays twin brothers (a walk in the park for him) investigating a decades old … Continue reading →
I’m surprised that I liked Yumi’s Cells 2 this much, I thought it would be a nice watch but never expected to be so emotionally invested. All praise not just to Kim Go Eun‘s delicate and lovely acting but to how the production continued to develop her cells and take us along that emotional journey. New stills are out for … Continue reading →
The success of ENA drama Extraordinary Attorney Woo isn’t just a domestic South Korea event, on July 14th Flixpatrol has it number 6 on the worldwide top 10 streaming TV shows on Netflix so it’s getting worldwide views as well. K-news is reporting that the production has received offers from multiple platforms to remake the drama for the US market … Continue reading →
Holy heck this is too cute not to share. K-actress Kim Se Jung rolled from A Business Proposal right into filming her next drama Today’s Webtoon before she can even fully bask in the success of that unexpectedly delightful rom-com confection. Lucky she took some of the happy connections with her as this week she received a coffee truck support … Continue reading →
If you like whales, smart female leads, awkward bumbling cuteness, and a satisfying resolution each and every episode then come on down to join the Extraordinary Attorney Woo party! This Wednesday’s episode 5 almost doubled the previous episode with an astronomical 9.128%. It’s high for any cable network, usually jTBC and tvN gets these numbers a few times a year, … Continue reading →
Well this is a nice surprise, I haven’t seen much of K-actress Kim So Hyun in recent months but this week she updated her SNS with lots of pretty pictures. She shared a close up and two additional pictures showing her hanging out at a cafe. She’s wearing a simple black tank top with tan linen pants, a very pretty … Continue reading →
Call it the Suzy effect much like Park Eun Bin is rocketing the formerly unknown cable network ENA to superstardom thanks to her new drama. Streaming network Coupang Play is having a banner month thanks to K-drama Anna starring Suzy, Jung Eun Chae, and Kim Joon Han. It got great reviews for the directing by the female PD and also … Continue reading →
Chingus! I’m so shook! Like, I love both guys for Yumi and I know my heart will break for one (or both) but at the same time happy with whatever choice Yumi makes (either guy or herself). This is the magic of Yumi’s Cells 2, with the second season continuing the wonderful storytelling of the first season with a new … Continue reading →
Omo, come again? Like, way to harsh my buzz Hong Sisters! News broke today about the structure of Alchemy of Souls, which announced prior to airing that it would consist of Part 1 and Part 2. Part 1 is scheduled for 20-episodes and the subsequent Part 2 would have 10-episodes. Now the production is explaining that Jung So Min will … Continue reading →
It’s only aired two weeks and four episodes but now I’m way curious to see how high this little drama that could will go. ENA drama Extraordinary Attorney Woo (Weird Lawyer Woo Young Woo) has already broken 5% ratings for a relatively unknown and little promoted drama on a tiny cable network by episode 4. Now it’s out that the … Continue reading →
I know this drama will get a proper English title eventually but it’s weird to keep calling it Youth, Climb the Barrier because it has like, nothing to recommend what it’s about. I’m talking about the K-drama adaptation of the Chinese novel The Golden Hairpin which was already filmed as a C-drama adaptation but that remains unable to air due … Continue reading →
As expected, the see-saw Saturday to Sunday ratings pattern remains steady and this Sunday’s episode 8 of Alchemy of Souls went back up past 6%, in the same vein as Jang Wook takes one step back but really two steps forward. The attempted soul swapping was thwarted by the OG soul of Mu Duk, who somehow found Wook in the … Continue reading →
I’ll report on the ratings for Alchemy of Souls if there is any meaningful change but it’s been staying around 5.3% and 6.5% on Sundays for two weeks now and it’s more interesting to keep tabs on the actual plot development. This world that the Hong Sisters created, cobbled together from a bajillion prior novel, drama, movie, play bits and … Continue reading →
