I saw scripts out for upcoming MBC sageuk romance drama Lovers but I guess cast announcements are still getting doled out. This weekend it was announced that Lee Da In will be the second female lead, she plays the best friend of the female lead played by Ahn Eun Jin. This is will Namgoong Min‘s first romance centric drama in years and I for one am mega stoked and I love this casting the more I hear of it. The drama is from the PD of The Veil (Black Sun) and the screenwriter of King’s Daughter Soo Baek Hyang and The Rebel.

I think the heyday of Lee Seung Gi being the Nation’s Grandson is over and that’s a good thing because otherwise the K-netizen commentary on his dating life would have been even more vicious. Last year he went public with … Continue reading

I paused writing about SBS time travel drama Alice because while I am still watching the inexplicable flourishes the production insists on adding that adhere to K-drama tropes. I really wish this drama aired on OCN instead, alas it doesn’t … Continue reading

I’m super loving EVERYTHING about Alice, even if it’s a story about a mother/son duo kick-assing everything back to the way it is and saving humanity from wonky time-travel shenanigans. Kim Hee Sun and Joo Won are the oddest yet … Continue reading

I think a time slip must’ve happened because new SBS Fri-Sat drama Alice is already here. So the one week break from predecessor Backstreet Rookie passed in a glance and this Friday the network goes back to the time travel … Continue reading

This is the year of time-travel and/or parallel universes, it has been done before in K-dramas but seems lumped together this year with Train, 365: Repeat the Year, The King: Eternal Monarch, and now Alice. This past weekend felt a … Continue reading
