It’s a new year and for these three bestie girlfriends it looks like they are on the hunt to live their best lives. The teaser is out for jTBC drama Thirty Nine with Son Ye Jin, Jeon Mi Do, and Kim Ji Hyun playing three friends on the cusp of turning forty years old and still single it appears. But … Continue reading →
Man, I like just one thing about Snowdrop and it’s probably the least likely to happen thing, which is the OTP having a happy ending. It’s a turd bucket of a drama in terms of set up and story line and characterization but after watching the first half the two leads Jung Hae In and Jisoo are actually quite cute … Continue reading →
Twenty years? Seriously, twenty years! Who would have thunk it and who here remembers living through this entire experience which kick started the Hallyu era. Today on January 14th, 2022 marks the exact 20th anniversary of the date Winter Sonata premiered on Korean televisions. I don’t think ANYONE could have predicted on January 14th, 2002 that this drama would change … Continue reading →
One of the messiest celebrity divorces in TW-ent in recent memory is back in the news this week, thanks to male lead singer Leehom Wang coming out of his two weeks quarantine after coming back to Taiwan from China in the wake of his ex-wife Lee Jing Lei‘s allegations of his mistreatment and misconduct during their marriage. This week he … Continue reading →
Okay, I totally had a deja vu moment when I heard this drama synopsis and wondered if I was back in January 2021 when Hometown Cha Cha Cha was cast. K-ent is reporting that Im Shi Wan and Seolhyun have been tapped as the leads for the countryside romance drama Summer Strike, which legit sounds like Hometown Cha Cha Cha … Continue reading →
The casting response is fast on this drama but it is also not a surprise since top actor Gong Yoo is quite selective on his projects. He was offered the male lead to make a prime time drama return in screenwriter Kim Eun Hee‘s next drama tentatively titled Evil (or The Devil, I’ve seen both). She’s coming back from a … Continue reading →
I don’t know if this was vetted with Lee Seung Gi‘s agency before the announcement but it’s certainly not something I heard before so I wonder if it’s only recently inked or perhaps nearly done so no official announcement until now. KBS presented its entire year 2022 line up of K-dramas and it was all ones previously announced except for … Continue reading →
Why do these babies do this to me! I just want them to be happy and bask in their happy dating lives but no, denial is a River in Egypt and they just have to spring it at the finish line. To date I’m still the most shocked by the news that Roy Qiu and Tiffany Ann Hsu met on … Continue reading →
This case sounds a lot like the allegations against Jo Byung Kyu and both young actors got their big break in Sky Castle together to boot. Rising K-actor Kim Dong Hee, who had a major male supporting role in Itaewon Class and was the male lead in Extracurricular, was accusing last year in 2021 of bullying by a former elementary … Continue reading →
New year and hopefully a new reboot for K-actor Yoo Seung Ho. K-ent is reporting that he’s parting ways with existing agency Story J after his contract expired but the agency replied that it’s still in discussions with Yoo Seung Ho. I think it’s a given he’s going the leave, his last dramas were all either meh to okay but … Continue reading →
So this is a much better preview for upcoming jTBC drama Weather People, I’ve also seen it called Forecasting Love and Weather which I like a whole lot better. The first previews were boring and weirdly anemic in showcasing any chemistry between leads Park Min Young and Song Kang. The age gap showed less that she looks old(er) but more … Continue reading →
It’s a case of back in the saddle for him and ready for her promotion for her. MBC has cast Yook Sung Jae and Jung Chae Yeon as the leads for its mid year 2022 airing K-drama Golden Spoon. It’s a fantasy romance life journey themed drama about a young man who uses a mysterious golden spoon to change his … Continue reading →
Mememememe, count me in with the K-netizens! Actually the C-netizens are also jones-ing for this reunion pairing onscreen and if Lee Do Hyun can work with Go Min Si three times now the drama gods can and must absolutely give us his pairing with IU again. The two were in Hotel Del Luna together where she was the female lead … Continue reading →
