I didn’t follow the K-movies this year so I don’t even know if any of the winners were the right ones lol but I still love awards ceremonies for the glitz and glamor.

I always feel like Kim Jae Wook and rom-coms are such a tenuous treat that I don’t want to get too excited and spook him from doing more in the future like a skittish colt lol.

I have my doubts about this casting coming through but I will never look a gift horse in the mouth. Kim Jae Wook may be making his first drama return in nearly three years with the romance drama Crazy Love, which I am so much squee about it’s not even funny.

Do I think Krystal looks believable as a capable South Korean female soldier. For sure no, but then I’m still mega excited about the upcoming OCN action/horror/thriller Search regardless because her emotive delicacy will likely not be required here.
