It’s pretty easy to figure out which K-dramas I’m interested in or excited about but there are lots more K-drama fishes in the pond then the ones I care to cover. For companies worldwide the fourth and final quarter of the year has started and it’s time to put the pedal to the metal and bring home the win. For the networks in Korea, some have flown high while others have faltered, but with so many upcoming K-dramas in the pipeline the Fall season is an unpredictable free for all that can reset the stage. Every network has a win in the different time slots so far this year: KBS did especially well on weekends with My Daughter Seo Young, The Best Lee Soon Shin, and now King’s Family, while MBC scored wins with Horse Doctor and Gu Family Book, and SBS has been spreading out the wins across time slots with That Winter, The Wind Blows, I Hear Your Voice, and The Master’s Sun. Now it’s time to look forward to the last batch of K-dramas that could give 2013 the final kick in the arse in terms of delivering a final injection of quality fare, or it’ll close out the year’s end with a whimper of lots of buzz with no bite. Take a poll and see which K-dramas are the most hotly anticipated, and conversely consider which K-dramas actually have potential to be really good. Despite the skewed coverage around here, there isn’t just two K-dramas premiering in the Fall in the form of Heirs/The Inheritors and Marry Him If You Dare. I’m actually plenty curious about most of what’s coming and giddy with excitement for some unexpected ratings and quality results. It’s so boring when its predictable, let the Fall K-drama showdown begin now! Continue reading

Originally there was going to be a head-to-head showdown between the upcoming two new Wed-Thurs dramas – Heirs or The Inheritors was going to premiere on October 2nd the same day as Medical Top Team. But for whatever reason SBS … Continue reading
Joo Ji Hoon cannot catch a break when it comes to drama hair-dos. I can’t even wrap my mind around his hair for the role of the antagonist doctor in Medical Top Team. It’s slicked back, which usually denotes an … Continue reading
I have a long and fruitful love/boredom relationship with medical K-dramas. I’ve marathoned quite a few, but by and large the genre basically tells me to stay away. Those of you who read my blog know my real profession, so … Continue reading
I’m not trying to hype up Heirs or give it excessive mentions but it really is the most fascinating upcoming K-drama purely for the hot mess potential. I’m also wondering if all the legions of fanboys and fangirls of the … Continue reading
