He’s the successful CEO of a camping gear company and she’s the new rookie hire, except they have a past when she’s the capable … Continue reading →
The biggest Netflix K-drama of 2024 as anticipated has kicked off promos as the platform released the first official stills for Squid Game 2. I liked but didn’t love the drama but it was a bona fide global phenomenon when it aired in early 2021 and carried the wave of pandemic claustrophobia and fear of financial insecurity paired with gameplay … Continue reading →
It was the night for prestige sageuk drama My Dearest over at the MBC Year End Drama Awards. Male lead Namgoong Min won the Daesang for his performance in the drama, Best Couple with Ahn Eun Jin, which also took home Best Drama. The dramas that did okay for the year on the network all gave its leads various levels … Continue reading →
I feel like I’m in a stare down with MBC and it keeps calling my bluff that I will abandon this drama. Wednesday rom-com A Good Day to be a Dog only has 14 episodes and airs once a week and already MBC has pre-empted it once and will do so again this week. Episode 5 will have to wait … Continue reading →
I’m normally okay with preemptions these days since it’s been awhile since a K-drama got me addicted but I’m thisclose to be super addicted to MBC weekly rom-com A Good Day to be a Dog and this week’s unexpected non-airing of episode 4 hit me like ice cold water. I need my doggie couple and the obligatory cuteness of doggie … Continue reading →
As a dog mom and a lover of rom-coms I’m feeling more and more excited for upcoming KBS drama A Good Day to be a Dog. Adapted from the same name webtoon, it’s got a silly premise but with the right leads can totally pull it off. The latest poster has leads Park Kyu Young and Cha Eun Woo in … Continue reading →
Until I watched Park Kyu Young in one of my fave rom-coms Dali and the Cocky Prince I didn’t find her all that suitable as a romantic leading lady. Afterwards I realized she’s not just a natural at the rom-com cadence but she has excellent chemistry with her leading men, she had it in spades with both male leads in … Continue reading →
MBC continues to lag in ratings and buzz and I’m not expecting this drama to change much other than I’m curious and interested to watch it. The first stills are out for A Good Day to be a Dog adapted from a webtoon about a high school teacher with the curse to turn into a dog when she kisses someone. … Continue reading →
So Cha Eun Woo turned down that conceptually weird turning into a chicken nugget drama but ended up doing a less weird turning into a dog drama lol. This one sounds like a webtoon artist plugged elements into a random story generator and came up with a fantasy romance conceit for upcoming drama A Good Day to be a Dog. … Continue reading →
Well way to harsh the female lead’s thunder with a later announcement or perhaps giving her the solo spotlight now. Netflix has announced that the female lead for the second season of Squid Game will be Park Kyu Young, joining the returning four big names from the original drama as well as another four male lead level new additions all … Continue reading →
I think Sweet Home really kicked off the Netflix produced K-drama craze, it aired in December 2020 and we all know the explosion that happened in 2021. Sweet Home trended high on viewership when it aired and there was always talk of successive season(s) but while other later aired Netflix dramas got next season announcements sooner it’s now time for … Continue reading →
The 2021 KBS Drama Awards was the surprising highlight for me of the three network ceremonies, there was so many of my faves in attendance and everyone looked great! Even the black dresses were uniquely cut so it wasn’t so boring, but most of the ladies took bigger fashion chances than the Korean actress contingent usually do. It was a … Continue reading →
