I like cute couples with much in common and are against the odds of making it. It feels like reel and real combined and I’m rooting for the underdogs with only positivity around them. Sadly Korean idol couple Heechul of Super Junior (and variety hosting) fame and TWICE member Momo will not go the long haul. The couple has confirmed … Continue reading →
Okay, who is still buying DVD sets lol! OMG I feels like a lifetime ago but my incredible collection of K-drama DVD sets remind me constantly that was once the way to own faves. Anyhoo, Park Seo Joon is in K-ent news this week as Amazon Japan released the Best Sellers list of it’s K-dramas and his dramas make up … Continue reading →
This is totally family affairs that played out in public, and the happy ending probably makes it all worth it. K-actress Hwang Jung Eum has been married for a few years to a businessman husband and last year during the height of COVID-19 lockdowns she filed for divorce. During the pandemic there were quite a lot of breakups and divorces … Continue reading →
Okay this sounds like an interesting drama pick for Suzy. I also like she’s taking a drama first before the usual buzz over the male lead because she needs to either stand on her own or accept that she’s only able to do dramas with a equivalent male lead. Suzy has been cast in the Coupang Play thriller drama The … Continue reading →
I’m on the prowl for a new K-drama soon as my recent ones have ended or will end soon, and I wish tvN romance comedy drama Hometown Cha Cha Cha (formerly Seaside Village Cha Cha Cha) would be premiering this month or next especially since it seems so summery in vibe. Alas tvN hasn’t given it a confirmed time slot … Continue reading →
Well this is certainly a rarity in K-drama but clearly stuff really went off the rails during filming. Rookie actress Park Hye Eun (but she uses Park Hae Eun on her own SNS account) has been fired from the currently filming Hong Sisters fantasy drama Return (or Resurrection) as the female lead. Filming only started recently and has now been … Continue reading →
Hoo boy, now this is a drama casting I wish the male lead didn’t accept, even if it turns out to be good all the early signs are that it won’t be my cup of tea. Im Soo Jung and Lee Do Hyun are confirmed and will head into filming for romance drama Melancholia, depicting the love story of an … Continue reading →
All I ask of my actors/actress is that they be able to exercise their craft whether through visuals or physical expression but so often it comes up against the modern cheat sheet that is alterations. Whether someone went under the knife is for he/she to acknowledge and accept but as viewers we can only say someone looks the same or … Continue reading →
It’s been a mixed bag so far this year in 2021 with sageuks but overall it felt like I’m getting that genre satisfied nicely with the ones I’ve watched. It’s also nice that one finishes and another starts right after so I can focus on one at a time and up next is SBS drama Red Sky (Hong Chun Gi). … Continue reading →
I still remember the infamous Princess Aurora aka “Im Sung Han’s Death Note”, the drama where the behind-the-scenes shenanigans resulted in onscreen plot developments where character after character was either shipped off or killed off (and not resurrected). Writer Im Sung Han kinda lost her ratings touch after that maybe because actors didn’t want to work with her anymore and/or … Continue reading →
K-actress Im Soo Hyang has had her show of hit dramas and flop dramas and many more in between, she’s one of the most consistently productive K-actresses with the amount of dramas she does on a regular clip. I’m glad she’s getting work but I do not get her appeal as an actress, she just doesn’t work for me so … Continue reading →
Newly arrived tvN drama You are My Spring is……interesting to say the least. I watched episode 1 and can’t for the life of me decide if I like it or dislike it. If it wasn’t for leads Seo Hyun Jin and Kim Dong Wook both of whom I love, I probably would lean towards dislike but it’s not because the … Continue reading →
Okay, this K-ent article is so ridiculously over effusive I have no idea what the writer is thinking to write thousands of words on why Han So Hee has that “shocking charisma, like magic it can cover up any lacking areas.” The writer discusses how jTBC had high hopes for Nevertheless but the ratings keep dropping and now is in … Continue reading →
