Teaser drama posters for a drama with the word mask in it can get away with not showing us any faces, but the ones for upcoming MBC sageuk Ruler: Master of the Mask did an nice job setting up the duality of the two male leads. One a crown prince and the other a beggar, and somehow their paths crosses … Continue reading →
Meet cutes remain a tried and true staple of K-dramas, not necessarily building towards a successful OTP but if done right continues to deliver the first satisfying rush in the romantic set up in any K-drama. The first meeting of the star-crossed OTP in upcoming MBC sageuk Ruler: Master of the Mask shows Kim So Hyun and Yoo Seung Ho … Continue reading →
Recently premiered MBC Wed-Thurs drama Radiant Office has been less than successful in ratings, and frankly audience feedback hasn’t been positive either. Not sure what’s not working since I’m not watching but I’m definitely keen to usher it off and welcome next drama the sageuk Ruler: Master of the Mask with my baby boy Yoo Seung Ho. The fact that … Continue reading →
The last time a K-drama put a honey of mine in a mask it did not end, I’m still mildly traumatized by Lee Jun Ki being so wasted in the narrative and directorial hot mess that was Moon Lovers: Scarlet Heart: Ryeo. I hope MBC knows what it’s doing for spring sageuk Ruler – Master of the Mask, because if … Continue reading →
Cameras have started rolling on the set of upcoming MBC sageuk Ruler: Master of the Mask. The big lead time start is good news, even though the drama doesn’t arrive until May it’s nice to get an early glimpse at a drama I’m super looking forward to. Starring Yoo Seung Ho, Kim So Hyun, L, and Yoon So Hee, the … Continue reading →
This casting will definitely limit the possibility the second leads will steal the thunder from the main leads, but will also double up on the visuals for this drama so overall a win-win. Yoon So Hee and L (Kim Myung Soo) are confirmed for next year’s sageuk drama Ruler: Master of the Mask, which has already inked leads Yoo Seung … Continue reading →
It’s probably safe now to assume that the upcoming K-version of In Time With You will be completely different than the original. I didn’t love the original so it’s fine with me, but I think those who did might want to skip The Time I Loved You unless one goes in with an open mind with the wholesale reinvention. I’m … Continue reading →
Despite filming already underway for The Time I Loved You (The Time We Were Not in Love), I thought the late additions to the cast was complete when the production added talented newbie actress Choo Soo Hyun as the second female lead. Looks like there is one more surprise in the works as news broke today that Infinite‘s L (Kim … Continue reading →
If the rest of the members of boy band Infinite want to get into acting, I’m game to give them a try since 2014 has been quite good to the few who have. L (Kim Myung Soo) has been acting even before this year but all his earlier acting gigs have been nonstarters as far as I’m concerned. Whether it … Continue reading →
Four out of seven is a majority so it’s only fitting I write about certain members of the K-pop boyband Infinite now that four are currently gracing the airwaves and doing so in a rather enjoyable manner for me. L and Hoya are starring in the SBS primetime Wed-Thurs drama My Lovely Girl while Woohyun and Sungyeol are over on … Continue reading →
This is a completely random post and I haven’t done of of these in ages. There is just too many dramas, books, movies and the like dropping nonstop I don’t even have time to write about a quarter of the new entertainment much less fritter away time on frivolous commentary. With that said, I’m so in love with L‘s blond … Continue reading →
With It’s Okay, It’s Love signing off with a satisfying flourish last week, tomorrow SBS welcomes lighter fluffier fare in the Wed-Thurs time slot. The arrival of My Lovely Girl (My Lovable Girl) marks leading man Rain‘s return to television after four years as well as Krystal‘s first turn as a leading lady. I’m cool with their 12 year age … Continue reading →
Seeing the new stills of leading lady Krystal in My Lovely Girl (My Lovable Girl), as well as the latest preview teaser, one thing jumped out at me that didn’t dawn until now. Krystal appears to be playing the age-worn K-drama Candy heroine, complete with poor background and handful of part time jobs to make ends meet while she works … Continue reading →
