The original The Uncanny Counter was the unexpected ratings hit in late 2020 marking one of smaller cable network OCN‘s biggest wins. It was scheduled for a season 2 right away but then got delayed after male lead Jo Byung Gyu got accused of a school yard bullying scandal which has since been handled as the first accuser recanted. The … Continue reading →

jTBC has confirmed another drama airing schedule, with Behind Your Touch (original title Hip) to premiere after King the Land, so in mid-August. This drama is from the screenwriter of critically acclaimed series The Light in Your Eyes (Brilliant) so will be a reunion with Han Ji Min as the female lead. The drama has Han Ji Min playing a … Continue reading →
For some reason I thought C-stars Tan Song Yun and Xu Kai have done a drama together before now but alas it was just the usual casting carousel jumble so this upcoming drama will be their first together. It’s called As Beautiful As You (Chinese title You Are More Beautiful than the Starlight) and it’s an start-up company tech industry … Continue reading →
I’m just popping popcorn here wondering which C-dramas are going to pass the censors this summers what with the May bloodbath that sent a handful onto the shelves abruptly. Xianxia romance C-drama The Longest Promise was filmed two years ago in 2021 and has since then periodically discussed thanks to Xiao Zhan being the high profile male lead opposite Ren … Continue reading →
I’m not sure if Yoo Ah In ever played a drug kingpin in any of his movies because he’s turned out to be one in real life. Sure he’s not accused (thus far) of dealing but his drug use allegations have increased in severity yet again. To date he was tested and found to have five different illegal or prescription … Continue reading →
Hhhhmmm, not sure how I feel about it. K-ent is reporting that the screenwriter of mega hit small cable drama Extraordinary Attorney Woo has signed a deal with the same production company for a season 2. It’s with the production company so my first thought is that it may not end up airing on ENA and could go to a … Continue reading →

Starring Liu Yu Ning and Song Zu Er adapted from the same name novel, it’s not a xianxia and seems more like slow burn court and family politics … Continue reading →
Park Min Young routinely tops the Japan polls of favorite K-actresses so it’s no surprise to see her this week in Tokyo for a cosmetics brand CF event. She rocked a cutout black dress with open sides and back and a high slit, it was sexy without being over the top. Her elegant makeup and simple low pony rounded out … Continue reading →
Congrats to the Bad Mom (The Good Bad Mother) and her complicated loving relationship with her son as the jTBC weekday drama ends with this Thursday’s episode 14. Most K-dramas are 16-episodes, some 20 and a few even 12-episodes but this is an odd length as I can recollect. Other than that the drama was a one way success train, … Continue reading →
This totally reminds me of a scene out of Song Hye Kyo‘s drama Now, We are Breaking Up, the high fashion luxury back drop and her with a younger gorgeous hunk. I actually didn’t hate that drama but it was just lackluster, could have been better but I don’t know the specifics of what needed to be fixed, only that … Continue reading →
