I don’t know if the big budget A-lister prestige K-dramas are still a sure bet after last year saw a few do less than stellar. The biggest disappointment is probably political thriller Polaris (The Tempest) with Jeon Ji Hyun and Kang Dong Won, and production is still going forward with The Koreans a remake of the US series The Americans. … Continue reading →
Lol, if this drama isn’t set up solely to be a love triangle, to the degree that the first teaser is only the love triangle. jTBC has released the first look at upcoming rom-com K-drama The Practical Guide to Love adapted from the webtoon Efficient Dating for Singles and it’s an old school throwback to the very set up that … Continue reading →
The great reception for Han Ji Min in her last romance K-drama makes sense that her next pick will also be the same genre. She earlier signed on for K-drama Efficient Dating of Single Men and Women (Efficient Dating of Singles) and this week it’s announced that her male lead will be Park Sung Hoon. It took me a moment … Continue reading →

I swear this drama was cast and announced in August of this year and then I went back through my posts and it was actually August of last year in 2023. Wow at how fast time flies and how long it took to get it to the small screen. Love Scout (Korean title My Perfect Secretary) with Han Ji Min … Continue reading →
This feels like a random slow day of summer dating release from tabloid Dispatch but it also isn’t one involving idols so always less likely to get any reaction from fans. Dispatch published pictures this week of K-actress Han Ji Min out on a date with musician Choi Jung Hoon, a member of the rock band Jannabi. Both sides then … Continue reading →
Holy drama gods am I so excited for this one. The rom-com K-drama Between Greetings kicked off filming this week as female lead Han Ji Min posted a picture of her at the script reading. Her male lead is Lee Joon Hyuk and having two established veteran incredibly strong actors onscreen together makes me so happy. Bonus points for this … Continue reading →
Well this is certainly a very appealing and sensible casting of two well matched leads in a genre I love. K-ent is reporting that Han Ji Min and Lee Joon Hyuk have been offered the lead roles in an upcoming romance K-drama called Acquaintances. She plays the successful founder of a headhunting firm but sucks at the interpersonal stuff and … Continue reading →
The production team behind the jTBC drama Behind Your Touch also did one of my all time favorite K-dramas The Light in Your Eyes, and in fact female lead Han Ji Min is reuniting as the deal for both dramas. I guess what I am trying to say is that despite how weird and off putting the premise of Behind … Continue reading →
Call me pleasantly surprised that the premiere weekend of jTBC drama Behind Your Touch did not end in flaming from viewers over the butt touching mind reading ability conceit. Reviews are positive though acknowledging the humor is really slapstick and throwback but as long as viewers enjoy that tone and so far nothing is offensive then the production really needs … Continue reading →

It’s been a slower than usual summer season for K-movies, other than for the 3rd installment of The Roundup: No Way Out topping three weekends at the box office and Smugglers one weekend, it’s been Hollywood movies at the top.

I feel like this stuff would be fine maybe even 10 years ago, 20 years ago definitely, but in this day and age when bodily autonomy is openly expected it’s just odd how this drama leans against it. jTBC drama Behind Your Touch has Han Ji Min playing a vet who can read minds when she touches the behind of … Continue reading →
