August has been a slow month for drama premieres so far as the new arrivals came earlier in the summer. The month end will see the arrival of two big prime time dramas in Moonlight Drawn by Clouds and the K-drama version of Bu Bu Jing Xin, but on the weekends there’s the stylish and warm like a well-worn suit … Continue reading →
I loved a well-dressed man and in upcoming KBS weekend drama Laurel Tree Tailors audiences will be getting not one but four of them. Nicely plotted, KBS, I’m so tuning in. Starring Lee Dong Gun, Cha In Pyo, Jo Yoon Hee, Choi Won Young, Hyun Woo, and Ra Mi Ran, the drama centers around four tailors who through friendship and … Continue reading →
With lunar new year over and done with, finally it feels like the never ending slew of holidays has passed and it’s time to get down to business. February marks the arrival of several high profile K-drama premieres, two of which are going head-to-head in three weeks at the end of the month. KBS is finally unveiling the fully pre-produced … Continue reading →
The successful run of tvN drama Oh My Ghost wrapped up this past weekend and paves the way for upcoming Choi Ji Woo drama Second Time Twenty Years Old. I quite liked OMG a lot and hope for the same quality with this new drama. My big worry remains how the drama wants to tackle the romantic entanglements, to go … Continue reading →
I’m wondering if audiences of old school Hallyu dramas will get whiplash if they were to check out Choi Ji Woo is upcoming tvN drama Second Time Twenty Years Old?

I wouldn’t say tvN is impressive or original with the official drama posters, nor is it visually stunning enough to … Continue reading →
The next K-drama I’m most looking forward to is tvN‘s Second Time Twenty Again. I am really enjoying currently airing Oh My Ghost so it’s not to rush OMG off the screen, but I have grown super fond of Choi Ji Woo thanks to the triple punch – a fantastic turn as The Suspicious Housekeeper, being wonderfully hateful in Temptation, and … Continue reading →
There are worst places to be in the casting process than where upcoming KBS drama Hello Monster is right now. The drama is in a weird spot of having filled out the cast except for the leading man role. Luckily the drama still has plenty of time to find a strapping fellow to play the criminal profiler expert since Hello … Continue reading →
It’s finally time to pull back and the curtains and see what Records of a Night Watchman has to offer. The first teaser preview is out and it’s definitely worth checking out. It looks less sageuk and more historical fantasy. I’m seen K-dramas so heavily fantasy such as Bae Yong Joon‘s The Legend (Legend of the First King’s Four Gods) … Continue reading →
The first drama stills are out for the upcoming MBC Mon-Tues drama Records of a Night Watchman, the supernatural fusion sageuk that’s going to take over for Triangle once these three brothers finish hashing out their issues in another month. The first stills are from the parents generation before young leads Jung Il Woo, Go Sung Hee, Yunho, Seo Ye Ji, … Continue reading →
