So it’s a fresh pairing for upcoming SBS drama Flexx Cop, with Ahn Bo Hyun getting his top billed male lead role opposite last year’s breakout from Reborn Rich supporting actress Park Ji Hyun.

It’s rare that a drama ending is so satisfying it redeems all the flaws earlier but that’s how See You in My 19th Life made me feel. Notice I didn’t say great or perfect because it’s not, but the story stayed tight and consistent to telling the many lives of Ji Eum and what it means to remember and also … Continue reading →
So there is a Chinese saying that to untie a bell one needs the person who tied the bell (解鈴還須繫鈴人) which means that to resolve a problem one needs the person who caused it in the first person to do so.

Well, if this isn’t the womp womp this drama desperately needed for the OTP segment to actually have mature depth. See You in My 19th Life has set up the leads as he’s still nursing his dead first love who was her 18th incarnation and she’s back in this 19th life to basically keep living her 18th life as his … Continue reading →
I wanted See You in My 19th Life to be better than it is but what it is remains worth watching. The Sat-Sun drama is now through episode 6 and the ratings are high 4% on Saturdays and low 5% on Sundays consistently.

I think fantasy always sounds interesting on paper but the execution has been spotting in K-dramas. The Beauty Within was amazingly heartfelt but Doom at Your Service fell completely flat, just naming two from the opposite ends of the spectrum. tvN upcoming drama See You in My 19th Life takes the premise of a woman who remembers all her past … Continue reading →
I can never accuse Ahn Bo Hyun is being typecast, he’s like the opposite of that. From the first time I took notice of him as one of the soldiers in Descendants of the Sun six years ago, he’s tried on a wide plethora of projects. It’s hard to find diametrically opposite male lead roles as Woon in Yumi’s Cells … Continue reading →
I’m with the K-netizens on this one but also think it will make for an interesting works/mega fail dichotomy when the drama comes out. The casting of Ahn Bo Hyun as the male lead in the upcoming fantasy romance See You in My 19th Life with Shin Hye Sun as the female lead sounds like a good pairing of two … Continue reading →
