So this is both a sweet and funny in timing dating confirmation. Acting stars Son Ho Jun and Gong Seung Yeon are alleged to have been dating, for two whole years actually. I don’t know if a tabloid was about to out them but the timing couldn’t have been better for releasing the information to have it skate under the … Continue reading →
SBS held the first drama awards of 2023 among the three big networks and it was a muted affair due to the days earlier passing of top actor Lee Seon Kyun. All the stars wore black except for one white and grey but there were definitely no one in anything colorful or eye catching. Kim Tae Ri and Lee Je … Continue reading →
I totally forgot how much tvN Sat-Sun fantasy drama Bulgasal cost to make because it just seemed rather low key since it premiered that I put it with other regular fantasy dramas like Tale of the Nine Tales and the like. But it’s not, it’s a $40 billion won drama that is second in price tag to the ambitious Arthdal … Continue reading →
The hullabaloo around jTBC Sat-Sun drama Snowdrop and its highly controversial premiere last weekend overshadowed the same time arrival of new tvN Sat-Sun drama Bulgasal (Immortal Souls). Starring Lee Jin Woo, Kwon Nara, Lee Joon, and Gong Seung Yeon, I wasn’t personally interested but it was occupying what has been tvN’s prime airing slot taking over for Jirisan. It actually … Continue reading →
When I first saw the previews for Squid Game I totally went “Huh, I’ve gone on this rodeo before”, but of course doing a same concept doesn’t mean there isn’t an appetite for it in the here and now so that drama went on to set records. Seeing the promos for tvN fantasy drama Bulgasal: Immortal Souls, I totally think … Continue reading →
Currently airing Jirisan continues to get plenty of media coverage and is still another month from finishing but it’s time for tvN to start promos for the next drama in that time slot which is Bulgasal (Immortal Souls). Starring Lee Jin Wook, Kwon Nara, Lee Joon, and Gong Seung Yeon, this is a case of four equally headlining leads packed … Continue reading →
Looks like tvN has a tightly knit acting group lined up for the upcoming spring drama Circle, an inner circle of talented and good looking leads so to speak. Confirmed now are dual male leads Kim Kang Woo and Yeo Jin Goo, each taking the lead in a portion of the drama set in 2037 and 2017, respectively. Sadly teen … Continue reading →
It’s a sigh of relief to see at least one star presence at the VIP premiere of the movie A Single Rider not look like a fashion victim. Other than Park Shin Hye, low key and effortlessly chic, everyone else got hit with either the clothing fail, the makeup monstrosity, and/or the hair woes. If I add Eom Ji Won … Continue reading →
I’m getting major déjà vu vibes from the previews for Introverted Boss (Sensitive Boss), the upcoming workplace comedy drama on tvN airing on Mon-Tues after Rude Miss Young Ae season 15. It reminds me so much of the mood and feels from both Another Oh Hae Young and Marriage Not Dating, and it’s not just because there are so many … Continue reading →
So it looks like this noodle god drama really is happening, even if the storyboard sounds weird, the time slot potentially even weirder, and the production team the weirdest of all. KBS has cast upcoming Wed-Thurs Master: God of Noodles to headline Chun Jung Myung, Jo Jae Hyun, Jung Yumi and Lee Sang Yeob. But the drama is following Descendants … Continue reading →
The SBS 2015 Drama Awards wraps up the trio of year end big K-drama awards shows, and while network was the overall ratings winner for the year the selections for its awards were somewhat underwhelming. Joo Won took home the Daesang for his performance in Yongpal, which I actually liked and now makes me not blah about him, but it … Continue reading →
