The end of March is here and April doesn’t look more promising in terms of global affairs in real life. But in drama life the upcoming SBS Fri-Sat drama The King: Eternal Monarch promises loads of reality escaping entertainment. The latest preview is a too brief quick scan through the faces of all six main leads Lee Min Ho, Kim … Continue reading →
The upcoming SBS drama The King: Eternal Monarch will be taking over the Fri-Sat time slot from Hyena so it’ll be a new spot for Kim Eun Sook when she collaborates with the Big Three networks. There is no way this drama isn’t going to get high ratings, there isn’t anything out there buzzy right now or nearly as high … Continue reading →
One of the reasons I’m so stoked for the upcoming SBS fantasy romance The King: Eternal Monarch is to hopefully see the redemption of Kim Go Eun. I LOVED Goblin but I really didn’t like character, and it was the sheer overwhelming love for the other three leads that helped overcome her naive wide-eyed blankness as a personality. She played … Continue reading →
Man, screenwriter Kim Eun Sook has so much to work with and still digs into her classic well of rom-com tropes. The second teaser for SBS drama The King: Eternal Monarch drops a hard hug, tons of staring, girl tying her hair in a ponytail as man gazes on warmly, and even an actual white horse galloping around. Don’t get … Continue reading →
Let’s get this out of the way, all the leads for upcoming SBS fantasy drama The King: Eternal Monarch looks great. Why wouldn’t they, with the big budget and also their natural visuals namely Lee Min Ho, Kim Go Eun, and Woo Do Hwan. I also think screenwriter Kim Eun Sook heard all the criticism lobbed at her writing of … Continue reading →
It’s always neat to see early behind the scenes pics of highly anticipated dramas and no other 2020 scheduled K-drama is probably trending as high in buzz as the Kim Eun Sook fantasy romance The King: Eternal Sovereign. Two months ago fans saw male lead Lee Min Ho literally personifying Prince Charming riding a white horse and now we see … Continue reading →
If Jung Hae In and Kim Go Eun are auditioning for a drama OTP then they just blew it out of the park and if I were a drama executive I would shoehorn these two into a good script ASAP. The two are continuing on their promotional campaign for their feel good movie Tune in for Love and are getting … Continue reading →
With the shrinkage of the K-drama airing times, with Mon-Tues getting put on hiatus or made permanent by the big three networks, there will also be fewer events K-dramas as before. The only big drama on deck for 2020 is Kim Eun Sook‘s fantasy romance The King: Eternal Sovereign with leads Lee Min Ho and Kim Go Eun. Kim Eun … Continue reading →
I’m not quite feeling the onscreen or on print chemistry of Jung Hae In and Kim Go Eun as they promote their upcoming movie Tune in for Love (Yoo Yeol’s Music Album). They kinda have sibling face and the same sweet low key vibe when they act so they at most seem like best platonic friends type, and I felt … Continue reading →
I really like Kim Go Eun and Jung Hae In but feel like both are always at the knife’s edge of K-netizen commentary. If they do well it’s taken as a given but one wrong step in acting, role, or behavior and each are excoriated. I wish K-netizens stopped eating their talented young and nurture them to walk the long … Continue reading →
This looks like a sweet harmless movie if I ever saw one and funnily enough stars two stars that K-netizens are prickly towards. Jung Hae In and Kim Go Eun put on their late ’90s gear to star in the K-movie Tune in for Love (Yoo Yeol’s Music Album) set during the IMF crisis where two people share love stories … Continue reading →
All that bickering from yesterday with the rumored casting of Kim Go Eun opposite Lee Min Ho for Kim Eun Sook‘s next high profile drama better pipe down now, because nothing is worse than the two fandoms of costars taking the other down. Kim Go Eun is now confirmed as the female lead for the fantasy drama The King: Eternal … Continue reading →
This is just behind-the-news chatter but K-ent is reporting that casting is underway for Kim Eun Sook‘s next drama The King: Eternal Sovereign after confirming the crucial male lead role last week with Lee Min Ho. Of course all eyes are on who lands the coveted though also sometimes thankless role of the female lead in what is always more … Continue reading →
