Dang, fatherhood absolutely suits Song Joong Ki, he’s like reverse aging and radiating so much happiness it’s contagious. The actor was in Seoul this week for the press conference of the thriller movie Bogota: City of the Lost with costars Lee Hee Joon and Kwon Hae Hyo. It’s his first public appearance since announcing the arrival of his second child … Continue reading →
I still remember when COVID-19 first broke out in the early months of 2020 worldwide the for K-ent it involved a lot of movie premieres getting shuffled, moving to streaming, and filming getting adjusted. One of which involved the period and location movie Bogota: City of the Lost, which as the name suggests is set in the Colombian city and … Continue reading →
My nearly 3 month long Wed-Thurs date with Lee Seung Gi is over, and zero regrets with the time spent. Unlike some of his stupider drama choices (*cough* Vagabond *cough*) this time tvn drama Mouse was too smart for its own good. It was like a math student who got the answer early on then trying to question and outthink … Continue reading →
Whatever my gripes are with tvN Wed-Thurs drama Mouse, it continues to keep me wanting to click watch on each episode so that’s a testament to the cast and the still to be revealed secrets I still want to know. This week’s episodes 18-19 was really a bunch of confirmation reveals on a lot of theories viewers have been speculating … Continue reading →
A nicely laudatory ceremony for the 2021 Baeksang Awards wrapped up tonight in South Korea and I’m pretty happy with the results. The Daesang went to Yoo Jae Suk for his continued exemplary work as a variety star and host, so it wasn’t given to the drama side. Beyond Evil took home Best Drama and male lead Shin Ha Kyun … Continue reading →
There is so much good news for Song Joong Ki and Lee Hee Joon, both are nominated for a Baeksang acting award this year and have gotten rave reviews for their acting performance in currently aired/airing dramas Vincenzo and Mouse, respectively. Both deserve a nice extended break after pouring their heart and guts out on long 20-episode drama shoots but … Continue reading →
I….have a lot of thoughts about tvN drama Mouse, but it’s so jumbled much like this drama I don’t know where the start hence the lack of consistently writing about it. It’s probably the most “interesting” drama airing right now for me, but the majority of that stem from constant WTF, aggravation, shock for shock factor, and general sense of … Continue reading →
Another release is here from the Korean Actors 200 list, with the website continuing to do a great job of teasing the next release and then dropping just stunning pictures of the actors and actresses in each batch. This third release has a great mix of leads and supporting stars who may not be household names but definitely recognizable by … Continue reading →
I’m so conflicted with tvN Wed-Thurs drama Mouse, much like the male lead Ba Reum played by Lee Seung Gi. I want to love this drama so much with a fantastic cast and slick execution on top of a twisty script. But emotionally it just doesn’t resonate with me the same way the writer’s previous super twisty thriller God’s Gift: … Continue reading →
Episode 5 of Mouse can probably be a standalone episode because it left me speechless. The tactics were frustrating to deliver the crescendo but the emotional impact really washed away all the nonsensical, coincidental, and absurd events that needed to deliver the gut punch. I can’t believe the Korean police would allow a live show with call in to catch … Continue reading →
I found tvN Wed-Thurs drama Mouse a bit underwhelming last week, it didn’t grab me as the killings were exceedingly brutal but the characters unknown so it doesn’t emotionally connect. The first and second episodes also didn’t segue well, from the OG serial killer now behind bars to new investigations with some bumbling tone thrown in, I wasn’t quite feeling … Continue reading →
Every time there is a Lee Seung Gi drama I’m on pins and needles hoping my boy picked well and doesn’t end up with a narrative stinker. His recently premiered tvN drama Mouse comes with high critical pedigree from the screenwriter of God’s Gift: 14 Days and Black and a lofty premise not just on catching a serial killer but … Continue reading →
Upcoming tvN drama Mouse is certainly marching in a no-nonsense way into its early March premiere, with none of the shiny glitzy promos and an overwhelming sense of dread. The first drama poster was pretty plain featuring male leads Lee Seung Gi and Lee Hee Joon staring at something with a police gaze and now the individual posters take the … Continue reading →
