Hotel King is one of those dramas where I watched two episodes and bailed. It wasn’t beyond terrible but was bad enough that even the reunion OTP of Lee Dong Wook and Lee Da Hae wasn’t enough to keep me around. With that said, the three new pictures posted by Lee Da Hae on her social media account this weekend … Continue reading →
I’m one of those early K-drama fans who watched My Girl years ago and loved it. The story was entertaining (back then) and the OTP was adorable like kittens and puppies with a very young Lee Dong Wook and Lee Da Hae.

Let’s not kid ourselves, this thing has nary an interesting thing going for it aside from the My Girl OTP having another go at … Continue reading →
Casting news waxes and wanes and last week was a particularly busy week for K-dramas. It’s always the male leads that garner more attention but there can’t be a drama without a female lead so it’s time to see how the Spring pairings are shaping up on the ladies side of things. First up is my most anticipated SBS cop … Continue reading →
With the weekend dramas Golden Rainbow and Thrice Married Woman well into its airings, the networks are finally getting down to business of locking down the main leads for the follow up dramas.
