My hats off to the MBC Fri-Sat drama Wonderful World for being a slow and sure storyteller and getting the recognition. The drama debuted with 5% ratings and the most recent episode 11 got over 11%, doubling the ratings with even room for further growth. Kim Nam Joo is a veteran actress with a track record of good drama selection but Cha Eun Woo has been coasting on good looks with improvement albeit incremental. Seeing this drama do well on its own merits makes me happy for the cast and crew especially the positive reviews for Cha Eun Woo who stepped outside his perfect male lead character and plays a rough and tumble man with a secret. The drama is slated for 14 episodes so get onboard if this revenge and mystery thriller is your jam.

I’m normally okay with preemptions these days since it’s been awhile since a K-drama got me addicted but I’m thisclose to be super addicted to MBC weekly rom-com A Good Day to be a Dog and this week’s unexpected non-airing … Continue reading
As a dog mom and a lover of rom-coms I’m feeling more and more excited for upcoming KBS drama A Good Day to be a Dog. Adapted from the same name webtoon, it’s got a silly premise but with the … Continue reading
Until I watched Park Kyu Young in one of my fave rom-coms Dali and the Cocky Prince I didn’t find her all that suitable as a romantic leading lady. Afterwards I realized she’s not just a natural at the rom-com … Continue reading
So its a runaway vote win for idol-actor Junho, netting 21 votes to be the top industry insider experts pick for best young idol turned actor of his gen group. Thirty one industry honchos were each given two votes to … Continue reading
MBC continues to lag in ratings and buzz and I’m not expecting this drama to change much other than I’m curious and interested to watch it. The first stills are out for A Good Day to be a Dog adapted … Continue reading
K-celebs were out on Friday night in Seoul for a Christian Dior brand event that feels like fall is for sure coming from the brand outfits on display. Jisoo has been a very public and touted CD brand spokesperson especially … Continue reading
So Cha Eun Woo turned down that conceptually weird turning into a chicken nugget drama but ended up doing a less weird turning into a dog drama lol. This one sounds like a webtoon artist plugged elements into a random … Continue reading
