Filming is underway for MBC‘s next long weekend drama Bad Thief, Good Thief, intriguing both for breaking out of the typical family stories mold for weekend fare and for the nice mix of main leads. Starring Ji Hyun Woo, Seohyun of SNSD, Kim Ji Hoon, and Im Joo Eun, the drama centers around thieves disrupting the shadowy operations of a … Continue reading →
The first stills are out for upcoming MBC 50-episode weekend drama Bad Thief, Good Thief, which has a synopsis that doesn’t sound like a typical family K-drama which has dominated that time slot. The drama is about a band of thieves who disrupt the operations of a powerful top group secretly manipulating South Korea. So Robin Hood battling the big … Continue reading →
This is one drama casting where I’d keep three out of four choices and ask for a substitute. But since it’s a done deal I’ll still check it out because both male leads are always worth watching. Ji Hyun Woo and Kim Ji Hoon are confirmed for upcoming MBC weekend drama Bad Thief, Good Thief, and will be joined by … Continue reading →
I really like K-actor Ji Hyun Woo and it’s strictly for his expansive performing talent. The musical actor underpinnings are an added bonus but as a K-drama leading man he’s delivered a spectrum of leading men types all to perfect degree whether it’s nebbishy beta male in Angry Mom or self-absorbed alpha jerk in Trot Lovers. The problem now is … Continue reading →
SBS premiered two new prime time dramas this week to opposite spectrum results, and the one win greatly trumps the one loss if you ask me. Doctors with Park Shin Hye and Kim Rae Won burst out of the gate to fantastic ratings, garnering 12.9% AGB nationwide on Monday and the second episode rose 1.3% to bring in 14.2%Â AGB nationwide … Continue reading →
I’m not sure good hair is supposed to be my first takeaway from the promos for upcoming SBS Wed-Thurs drama Wanted, but for first impressions it’s certainly not a negative one other than it’s likely not what this thriller drama is trying to convey. While the other SBS drama premiering this week, namely Doctors on Mon-Tues, is garnering more buzz, … Continue reading →
A cat and mouse game will soon be underway on SBS Wed-Thurs, with thriller drama Wanted taking over the time slot in two weeks from the soon to end Entertainer. Starring Kim Ah Joong, Uhm Tae Woong, and Ji Hyun Woo, it’s looking like a cousin to the tone and set up of God’s Gift: 14 Days, returning SBS to … Continue reading →
Filming has commenced for the next SBS Wed-Thurs drama Wanted, taking over on June 22nd from Entertainer. Only one out of the three initial leads signed on, with Kim Hyun Joo and Jin Goo passing on their roles while Uhm Tae Woong makes his drama return after last year’s mildly buzzy Valid Love. Joining Uhm Tae Woong is Kim Ah … Continue reading →
Tomorrow will be a dueling test of how much Hyde, Jekyll, Me will continue to in infuriate me with what swill passes for plot in that drama versus how much I’ll end up liking the newcomer drama Angry Mom. I loved its predecessor Kill Me Heal Me but that story reached a satisfying conclusion so I’m not sad to see … Continue reading →
The promotions for Angry Mom have been cute enough, but not so captivating right off the bat that it is guaranteed to hook viewers. I think the premise might bring the audience in since the topic of high school bullying is something that hits close to home. I’m still waiting for the drama posters but in the meantime the drama … Continue reading →
Upcoming MBC Wed-Thurs drama Angry Mom continues to look uber cute. I’m so glad I got over my Kim Hee Sun aversion so that I can actually look forward to this drama because the mom goes back to high school to protect her daughter concept is right up my alley. She’s still not an actress I would consider good at … Continue reading →
I’m breathing a sigh of relief that the first preview for upcoming MBC drama Angry Mom hits all the right notes for me. There’s the spitfire titular angry mom played by Kim Hee Sun, the hapless teacher that is Ji Hyun Woo going back to his beta-male side, and the petulant teenage daughter played by Kim Yoo Jung. Those three … Continue reading →
It’s super assuring to see the upcoming MBC Wed-Thurs drama Angry Mom start filming already with over a month left in predecessor drama Kill Me Heal Me‘s run. Both leads Kim Hee Sun and Ji Hyun Woo are returning to MBC after a long hiatus and mixed success in their previous recent works on other networks. Their last dramas were … Continue reading →
