Holy hotcakes does this look good! And I mean just that, the characters look great in the upcoming K-movie Pirates 2 (Goblin Flag) but it can clearly suck balls in script and directing when it comes out so for now I will just enjoy the good parts shown so far. The movie is the sequel to the box office hit … Continue reading →

I feel like tvN Mon-Tues drama A Piece of Your Mind was the similar cousin to jTBC also Mon-Tues drama When the Weather is Good. Both were quietly paced and warmly emotional, and neither got high ratings or buzz during its run.

I felt such a sense of deja vu when I saw the latest character posters and previews for upcoming tvN drama A Piece of Your Mind and it brought me back two decades in one glance.

Upcoming tvN romance A Piece of Your Mind (Half of a Half) feels like the story won’t be nearly as important as how leads Jung Hae In and Chae Soo Bin bring their … Continue reading →
The symbolism is a bit too literal as the first character posters are out for tvN Mon-Tues drama A Piece of Your Mind. It features half of Jung Hae In‘s right side of his face and half of Chae Soo Bin‘s left side of her face, and since the literal translation of the Korean title is Half of a Half … Continue reading →
