Man what a difference a month makes. This week K-ent reports that all three rumored leads of the upcoming K-drama remake of TW-drama Someone or One Day have confirmed – Ahn Hyo Seob will take on the role played by Greg Hsu, Jeon Yeo Bin is the female lead that Alice Ke played, and Kang Hoon rounds out the cast … Continue reading →
I can’t believe there is only two more episodes left of A Business Proposal! Next week is the finale already and the fantastic sharp pacing of this drama is because of it’s shorter 12-episode length but then it leaves fans like me sad to see it end so soon. Episode 10 was wonderful in every way – the car chase, … Continue reading →
The latest episode 8 of A Business Proposal wasn’t as snappy and uproariously charming as episode 7 but it maintained the high energy and movement forward. This episode also went back up over 10% in ratings to a new high of 10.8% and it’s well deserved because Ahn Hyo Seob is really much better in these two episodes which makes … Continue reading →
It’s confetti in the air time to celebrate a momentum achievement thanks to the little rom-com that could. SBS Mon-Tues drama A Business Proposal accomplished a new feat this Tuesday as episode 6 hit 10.1% ratings, and a primetime drama doing double digits these days is a rare bird. This week’s episodes 5-6 were so funny, better than last week’s … Continue reading →
SBS Mon-Tues drama A Business Proposal remains my candy corn of choice, so much sugar but oh so fun to ingest. Episode 4 continued the ratings rise albeit a smaller amount up to 8.7% which makes me excited and hopeful this rom-com will be one of the rare to break 10%. But then I realized that it’s only a 12-episode … Continue reading →
Well lookee here, the worst dramas turned out to be the best drama, and this is now Dali and the Cocky Prince part deux in terms of low expectations and unexpectedly awesome product. Last week’s premiere of A Business Proposal on SBS was a breath of fresh air, a true rom-com with all the cute quirks that played up a … Continue reading →
The new Mon-Tues SBS drama A Business Proposal (Office Blind Date) arrived this week and its reception was as expected the same degree as the drama hewed close to the webtoon its adapted from. The first episode got 4.9% AGB nationwide ratings and the second episode went up to 6.5%. Since this is airing on SBS the ratings are not … Continue reading →
Seeing the just dropped suite of drama posters for upcoming SBS romance A Business Proposal (Office Blind Date) makes it actually seem cute in a derpy way. The adherence to the webtoon visuals was clearly the marching orders and while the OTP on with Kim Se Jung and Ahn Hyo Seob looked really flat and unappealing, the rest are actually … 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 →
So far the only promising thing about SBS romance drama A Business Proposal (Office Blind Date) is that leads Ahn Hyo Seob and Kim Se Jung are age and visually compatible. It’s a low bar that I’m still surprised how many K-romance drama casting fail at it. But I still hate Ahn Hyo Seob’s hairstyle for this drama, that college … Continue reading →
This Saturday was the 2022 Golden Disc Awards in South Korea, after the spate of year end drama awards it’s a nice change to see the music side fete the notable achievements of 2021. Since I write about dramas and movies and only rarely follow the musical acts my interest in this ceremony and winners are only those who are … Continue reading →
A sense of deja vu isn’t necessarily a bad thing but it certainly means having to compete with the memory of the predecessor. The first teaser is out for SBS 2022 rom-com drama A Business Proposal (Office Blind Date) and the first off is that I like the original Korean title better. It’s adapted from the same name webtoon and … Continue reading →
SBS handed out a heck ton of awards at the year end celebration today and the 2021 SBS Drama Awards was definitely more jam packed with dramas and stars than the prior night over at MBC. The Daesang went to Kim So Yeon for Penthouse, well deserved as her performance was beloved by critics and viewers even if the character … Continue reading →
