I don’t know why I’m lowkey super excited for the next tvN Wed-Thurs drama My Roommate is a Gumiho. By all accounts expectations should be low but Mouse really wore me out and a silly fun rom-com can totally refill the drama meter. The drama airs on tvN this Wednesday with a simulcast on Chinese streaming giant iQiyi, which co-produced … Continue reading →
I feel like these two are overdue for a well received drama, and by gosh I’m rooting for them now. Jang Ki Yong and Hyeri are about to return to the small screen with the fantasy romance My Roommate is a Gumiho but we get a first glimpse of their onscreen visuals and chemistry in the newly released pictorial on … Continue reading →
K-actor Byun Woo Seok in my current opinion of him is a case of reel to real. As second male lead in Record of Youth, he seemed to steal the spotlight in the promo posters from Park Bo Gum but when the real deal arrived he was flat and dull in the drama proper. When he tried to emote you … Continue reading →
The rumored casting of Yoo Seung Ho and Hyeri in an upcoming sageuk is going forward with KBS starting to gather cast and crew to start filming in May. The drama is called Thinking of the Moon When the Flowers Bloom and is set in the late Joseon era during the strongest prohibition period. The female lead is a down … Continue reading →
Man, the amount of craziness in K-drama land has compounded so much recently I don’t even have the energy to remark on casting or projects with less than ideal leads. Case in point the upcoming tvN drama My Roommate is a Gumiho starring Jang Ki Yong (got the whole package but picks crappy projects) and Hyeri (naturally can’t act but … Continue reading →
Clearly 2021 is going all in on young romance sageuks and I’m fine with it as long as the casting and production team are solid. KBS is lining up a second half of the year sageuk titled Thinking of the Moon When the Flowers Bloom based on the real life prohibition period in Joseon history. In talks for the leads … Continue reading →
Okay, this drama sounds like a mash up off Goblin’s cohabitation element and Tale of Gumiho‘s fox bead aspect, and Tale of Gumiho ended up being a stupid and lame mashup of Goblin and Hotel Del Luna. I would castigate this drama for retreading except it’s based on a manhwa as tvN will air the K-drama adaptation of Falling Cohabitation … Continue reading →
This Mon-Tues wraps up Record of Youth and during the drama airing male lead Park Bo Gum has reportedly finished his basic training already en route to enlisting in the Navy. He hard carried this drama but there was still too much dull chemistry with the weaker costars around him, but the brief shining moments to help liven the mood … Continue reading →
Looks like the gumiho is back in the spotlight for the current drama cycle. Another gumiho themed K-drama has finished casting and will be on deck in early 2021 hopefully. Falling Cohabitation (Terrifying Cohabitation) is adapted from the same name webtoon and talks about a girl who swallows a male gumiho’s magical orb and they have to live together. Jang … Continue reading →
Okay, someone HAD TO have sent out a dress code otherwise how the heck is three out of six wearing couples tee, albeit in a love triangle look ahahaha. The perfect precious main cast of six from the hit K-drama Answer Me 1988 hung out recently and posted the pictures on their SNS, making me wonder just how much this … Continue reading →
Four years in and this couple remains as adorable and low key as they started. I want so much for them to have a permanent happy ending but they are still young so that may be awhiles away but I hope they also have the maturity to keep growing stronger together. Real life current boyfriend and girlfriend and former costars … Continue reading →
First off, if your fave isn’t mentioned here don’t get your goat up. This is just a list of some stars being mentioned right now as making a financial contribution to the fight to contain the novel coronavirus Covid19 spread. South Korea went from one of the Asian countries with known cases to suddenly an explosion of coronavirus cases centered … Continue reading →
I’m sorry that I can’t take idol turned actress Hyeri seriously yet, not when her wonderfully natural turn in Answer Me 1988 feels like a lucky shot because everything since she’s back to being bad. Her most recent drama the workplace Miss Lee ended last week and she’s giving the usual post-drama interviews where the topic went to my favorite … Continue reading →
