This is a fight as old as time, but I do appreciate the levity of throwing in more than just lead and second lead choices. Netflix asked its viewers of four of its streamed K-dramas if you would choose between A or B if you are the lead character. In Extraordinary Attorney Woo it’s between cutie patootie Jun Ho and … Continue reading →
Haha, maybe the graphic designer on the movie Confidential Assignment 2: International Cooperation heard all the complaints about how low budget and dumb the official movie posters were. So for the individual movie character posters at least each character looks less stiff albeit three dudes are literally doing the exact same pose. It’s the gun drawn one of course, with … Continue reading →
This Friday’s ratings for MBC drama Big Mouth was 9.8%, which puts this drama on the same trajectory as SBS Fri-Sat drama earlier this year Again My Life. An okay start but good word of mouth plus a fantastic male lead pulling in the viewers along the way. This Friday’s episode 5 got 9.8% ratings and the reviews continue to … Continue reading →
This sounds perfect for release next August during ghost month. The main cast trio has been assembled for a 2023 horror film titled Breaking Grave (Pamyo). Kim Go Eun and Lee Do Hyun are the young leads with veteran Choi Min Shik alongside, playing a group consisting of a female shaman, a feng shui master, and a funeral director tasked … Continue reading →
Ooooh this pairing is so up my alley! C-ent casting blogs are saying that Allen Ren and Zhao Lu Si are cast in an upcoming period drama. It’s called Sword Comes (or Sword Arrives) a short two word title but from the title it’s clearly a wuxia drama and not a xianxia (fantasy) drama. Both have had hit dramas in … Continue reading →
This is a frequent occurrence in the world of entertainment but its still so frustrating and demoralizing. I’ve heard of scripts getting re-written, dialogues getting changed, character trajectories getting changed midway through, and of course a final product getting re-edited. That’s apparently what happened to recently aired K-drama Anna, which got solid reviews and was the biggest drama hit for … Continue reading →
I feel like this is old school casting and in a good way. Han Hyo Joo has been offered the female lead in 2023 sci-fi drama Dominant Species (Dominion) which would pair her with Joo Ji Hoon who has been cast as the male lead. I mention old school because they basically debuted the exact same time in the mid-2000 … Continue reading →
Holy, this sounds like a fanfic made solely for all my C-drama kinks because the stuff I don’t like much are minimized and the stuff I love are maximized. The first teaser video is out for upcoming xianxia meets Republican era romance C-drama Thousand Years For You (Chinese title 请君 Qing Jun or a greeting that means “Please, Your Lord”). … Continue reading →
Art is 100% subjective and even the most out there artworks have their creators and fans. With that said, there is a majority zone by which art is enjoyed and the weirder art tends to fall outside that norm. K-actress Han So Hee has been posted art pictures on her Instagram lately and even her fans are not very uncomfortable … Continue reading →
It’s rare to see a group agency move in tandem but that’s what has happened this week with a quarter moving to a newly formed agency. Jeon Ji Hyun is the biggest name that left Culture Depot and going with her is Seo Ji Hye, Kim So Hyun, and Yoon Ji On. The new agency is called Ieum Hashtag and … Continue reading →
The largesse of the Extraordinary Attorney Woo success isn’t just reserved for the core leads but a rookie actress in a supporting role is gaining noticeable momentum. Joo Hyun Young hit a homerun on her first at bat as this drama is her first acting role and she not going picked a winner her character is also such a great … Continue reading →
I applaud writer Kim Eun Hee for continuing to challenge herself and this genre of horror is in she’s been tangentially dabbling with in her recent dramas. Jirisan had spooky bits and zombie sageuk Kingdom was scary as heck at times though zombie occupies its own genre outside of just pure supernatural horror. Her upcoming early 2023 SBS drama The … Continue reading →
So the next season is also happening for SBS medical drama Romantic Doctor, Teacher Kim, coming back in 2023 for the third go-around.
