There is a female centric K-drama coming up that sends shivers of awesome down my spine. tvN Wed-Thurs drama Kill Heel drops later this month and portends layers of strong women badassery. I would love if leads Kim Ha Neul, Kim Sung Ryung, and Lee Hye Young team up to battle baddies but alas they are likely gunning for each … Continue reading →
I remember when all those Taiwanese actors and actresses I loved were just late teens to early twenties young adults when they filmed those cracktastic idol dramas like Prince Turned into Frog, It Started with a Kiss, Fated to Love You, Devil Beside You, and so many more. Now that whole crew is mostly married, some with kid(s), and all … Continue reading →
K-actor Kim Min Jae is swapping out the nouveau riche chaebol gamjatang heir for Joseon era scrubs as he’s been confirmed for the tvN series Joseon Psychiatrist Yoo Se Poong. He plays a success royal acupunturist who leaves the palace after he loses that ability and finds new healing methods in a small village. He partners with Kim Hyang Gi … Continue reading →
I love me a reunion but this recent trend will hopefully not continue because it is a teensy bit squicky. I saw a preview still for upcoming Disney+ romance drama Kiss Sixth Sense with Yoon Kye Sang and Seo Ji Hye and got super excited because I love them both. And then my drama watching memory kicked in and I … Continue reading →
K-actress Park Bo Young is looking ahead in 2022 with a new K-drama and hopefully it will wash away the lackluster picks of her most recent dramas Doom at Your Service and Abyss. This one isn’t a fantasy drama, thank god, it’s called Morning Comes to Psychiatric Wards Too and is from the screenwriter of The Light in Your Eyes … Continue reading →
Another child actress is ready for her teen role mantle and this one was one of the cutest little cherubs I’ve ever laid eyes on when she debuted. Kal So Won rocketed to fame in Miracle in Cell #7 as the daughter who later grows up into Park Shin Hye‘s adult but Kal So Won had more screen time and … Continue reading →
I’m hoping for a Dali and the Cocky Prince redux here with SBS rom-com A Business Proposal (Office Blind Date), namely really crappy posters and previews but a winning and charming light romance story when it airs. The above official drama poster could not be less interesting if it tried, even a fan spliced drama could be better. It’s a … Continue reading →
Streaming platform Apple TV is a still a newbie in stepping into the K-drama realm so it’ll be interesting to see if the company promotes upcoming Koreans in Japan multigenerational drama/series Pachinko. Netflix has the process down to a science at this point having launched over a dozen self-produced K-dramas in the last two years but Apple TV is starting … Continue reading →
The fact that retired former top actress Brigette Lin is 67-years old had me floored, both in how beautiful she still looks at that age and how much time has passed. She’s been retired from acting since 1994 with Ashes of Time as her last project so that is nearly 30 years, she’s been married and living a seemingly low … Continue reading →
Man, if this K-movie was released a decade ago when K-pop fans still held strong to their stans not dating it would cause a riot because the onscreen chemistry from the stills alone of upcoming Netflix movie Love and Leashes (Moral Sense) are smoking hot between idol-actors Seohyun and Lee Jun Young. I would have loved a SNSD and U-KISS … Continue reading →
Oh hells yeah! I’m off to say a couple of Hail Marys to the drama gods after this but I have to share the news ASAP. K-ent is reporting that Lee Se Young will be the leading lady opposite Lee Seung Gi in the K-drama adaptation of romantic webtoon Love by Law. Lee Se Young was still in teen actress … Continue reading →
I feel like this drama is more suited to air in the summer, or perhaps since it’s telling a time spanning story through four years then it will also cycle through the seasons as the story ebbs and flows so it’s suitable to air anytime and still deliver the feels. Twenty Five, Twenty One is slated to drop next week … Continue reading →
Well this is an interesting tabulation of Netflix shows in terms of popularity. A new list is out through January 30, 2022 showing the cumulative hours watched of each Netflix show. I think it’s more accurate in some ways than number of people who clicked on it because some could watch and then drop it, whereas total hours means the … Continue reading →
