Here we go again – time to gear up to follow another K-drama live. I’m getting too old for this. Or maybe I just don’t have the stamina anymore. It’s a mentally exhausting and emotionally draining experience where the rewards most oftentimes don’t outweigh the time investment. I’m actually hoping 49 Days is just good and not great, because then … Continue reading →
It’s weird how my excitement for upcoming SBS drama 49 Days has dropped considerably the closer its gets to its premiere date next Wednesday. Don’t get me wrong, my interest is not being lowered by what I’ve seen of the trailers or stills, but more likely fatigue from the promotional deluge. The production released a full 10-minute trailer for the drama, … Continue reading →
The pretty (oh my god so pretty) cast of the upcoming SBS Wed-Thurs drama 49 Days held its press conference yesterday in preparation for its premiere next week. I’ve posted enough about the drama so I have nothing more to add substantively about the story, but fashion and chemistry-wise this press conference was a win and added to my interest … Continue reading →
We’re two weeks away from the premiere of 49 Days, and my personal goal is to finish my Sunny Happiness recaps by then so that I can get that addiction out of my system (good luck with that) in order to start squealing over this drama.

Next week is the head-to-head premiere of two seemingly complex and heady melodramas, The Thorn Birds and Royal Family, but all I can think about is for March 16th to arrive instantaneously.

How many variations of “I Want This Drama Now” do you think I can conjure up? I dunno, but I’ve got to start assembling them because I don’t want to bore everyone by my constant repetition. The first teaser of 49 Days has arrived. Oh hallelujah *cries tears of joy joy happy happy*. I’m going out on a limb and … Continue reading →
How many days until 49 Days? That was the only thought going through my mind when I saw the first ever BTS glimpse of the Stunning Sixsome (as I henceforth dub them) for the upcoming SBS Wed-Thurs drama 49 Days. I also let out this inhuman screech that surely must have shattered some windows in the building. I WANT THIS … Continue reading →
After a week or so of speculations and additional casting news, the entire main cast of the upcoming drama 49 Days has finally been confirmed. I don’t think I’ve ever seen an entire cast of main leads comprised completely of sageuk veterans, except for when the drama in discussion is a sageuk. 49 Days is a modern fantasy melodrama, and … Continue reading →
The long wait is finally over! For me at least. For Jae Hee fans, keep on waiting guys! My first K-drama love, Jo Hyun Jae (the man who starred in the drama that got me into K-dramas), who was discharged from the military the same day as Jae Hee early in 2010, has finally settled on his first comeback project. … Continue reading →
