MBC‘s new Wed-Thurs drama Hospital Ship had a fast launch with double digit ratings premiere in the first day but the second day episodes went down in ratings to high single digits. Things appear to have stabilized this week as the medical team on the sea ratings went back up to double digits, with Wed’s episode taking in 10.8% and … Continue reading →
There was a slight but meaningful down tick in ratings for the second day episodes of Hospital Ship, showing once again that narrative and execution is the king of ratings consistency over big name star power such as Ha Ji Won as the female lead. The MBC Wed-Thur new offering dropped below the premiere episodes 10% line and notched a … Continue reading →
I’d take this ratings win for Ha Ji Won even though its a comparatively unimpressive victory considering her competition. Newly arrived Wed-Thurs MBC drama Hospital Ship set sail with 10.6% AGB nationwide ratings for the first episode, barely skating into double digit category despite having a lead in drama that led the time slot and also the other two network … Continue reading →
If something doesn’t succeed then sucking so badly as to enter infamy may be a viable alternative to paddling in the middling center of mediocrity. Recently premiered Wed-Thurs KBS drama Manhole (Wonderland’s Feel or Feels So Good) is sliding into so bad it’s memorable for being that bad territory whether it was intentional or note, and frankly judging from the … Continue reading →
What a bummer for the cast and crew of newly arrived but likely DOA Wed-Thurs KBS drama Manhole (Wonderland’s Feel or Feels So Good). Episode 1 premiered with an anemic 3.1% AGB nationwide ratings but episode 2 managed to fall from even that low bar dropping to 2.8%. Ouch and kinda not a surprise, I figured this type of trendy … Continue reading →
It’s new drama Wednesday as KBS premieres the time-traveling wacky romance Manhole (Wonderland’s Feel or Feels So Good) taking over from the teary intense sageuk Seven Days Queen. Opposite the already airing The Man Who Dies to Live and Reunited Worlds, Manhole’s episode 1 ratings are so low it might as well crawl back inside the proverbial manhole. Episode 1 … Continue reading →
Idol-actor Jaejoong has got to be one of the most visually good looking Korean male stars out there so there is an added chuckle factor seeing him act way dorky and now fully ridiculous in the latest batch of drama stills for Manhole (Wonderland’s Feels or Feels So Good). I don’t think anything can top the lulz factor of seeing … Continue reading →
Even if KBS funky drama Manhole (Wonderland’s Feels or Feels So Good) turns out to be awful I will always remember enjoying the promos and always being taken off kilter in a good way. The individual posters are out featuring the lead foursome of Jaejoong, UEE, Jung Hye Sung, and Baro, with the unique casting coincidence of having three out … Continue reading →
The more promos I see from upcoming KBS Wed-Thurs drama Manhole (Wonderland’s Feels or Feels So Good) the more I think the production is as aware of the title puns as the English speaking audience and is just running with it. The whole thing is screwball and that works well to humanize Jaejoong who typically comes across as a too … Continue reading →
Whether KBS produces an actual good drama with Manhole (Wonderland’s Feels or Feels So Good), it’s produces the most unintentional sniggers in recent memory with the English title alone and that’s a whole lotta good fun to be had. Now we get the first look at said manhole, a time-traveling one at that, and the man who will be time-traveling … Continue reading →
If upcoming KBS Wed-Thurs drama Manhole (Wonderland’s Feels or Feels So Good) is intentionally trying to be weird and subversive then it’s doing a smashing job because I have no idea what to expect. The first teaser with the leading four cast members of Jaejoong, UEE, Baro, and Jung Hye Sung dancing to PPAP with their own even more herky … Continue reading →
I’ll try my best not to titter too much writing about upcoming KBS drama Manhole (Wonderland’s Feels or Feels So Good), and maybe a good way not to snigger too much like a teenager is to remember that there is already a thriller K-movie of the same name Manhole about a serial killer using manholes to kidnap and kill victims. … Continue reading →
There’s the case of seeing something out of context so it makes no sense until it gets placed in the bigger picture. Then there’s the case of seeing the bigger picture and still it befuddles with weirdness. Maybe that’s what the production of upcoming KBS drama Manhole (Wonderland’s Feels or Feels So Good) is going for. I saw fan snapped … Continue reading →
