I sense that SBS knows exactly what it has to work with on upcoming Wed-Thurs drama Remember and is doing a bang up job of maximizing it on all the promos. The latest batch features angsty Yoo Seung Ho looking drop dead handsome in a tux, adorable Park Min Young doing her best plucky girl heroine, and baddie Namgong Min … Continue reading →
Remember is looking mighty familiar and I’m unable to guess whether that’ll be a good or bad thing. It feels like so many K-drama thrillers that have come this way in recent years – good guy/girl racing against the clock and against the bad guys in order to save a life. Coming from SBS, it reminds me most of God’s … Continue reading →
The first preview is out for period C-drama Braveness of the Ming, best known for being leading lady Park Min Young‘s first foray into Chinese entertainment. I say best known for because this drama otherwise wouldn’t get nearly as much attention, which isn’t knocking its quality or lack thereof, but merely noting that there are so many similar such C-dramas … Continue reading →
When it rains it apparently pours Yoo Seung Ho, or at least it seems that way in the K-ent weather system. This past week dropped two sets of drama script reading stills both featuring Yoo Seung Ho, he’s the male lead in upcoming SBS Wed-Thurs drama Remember, as well as the male lead in cable network MBC Every1‘s Imaginary Cat. … Continue reading →
Don’t get typecast Namgoong Min! I have major fondness for SBS drama The Girl Who Sees Smells, despite a story that mostly made no sense and bumbling police work, the acting and chemistry of the cast made up the deficiencies and turned it into a fun watch for me. One standout was the chef character played by Namgoong Min, always … Continue reading →
I’ll take this casting news with my foot on the optimistic side, overall there are more things going right than bemoaning things not being ideal. Upcoming SBS Wed-Thurs legal drama Remember, to follow after The Village (Achiara’s Secret), has added two more faces to join confirmed male lead Yoo Seung Ho. He’ll be pairing up with noona Park Min Young … Continue reading →
I’m digging how not bad upcoming peroiod C-drama Braveness of the Ming looks. I know that’s hardly a resounding vote of confidence, but hear me out considering I see C-drama stills by the boatload and most make me want to rinse my eyes out. Some are too dour and dull, others too silly and bizarre, but Braveness of the Ming … Continue reading →
I’ve seen so many disappointing C-dramas to expect much from upcoming period drama Braveness of the Ming. I’m only following along with the filming since it’s K-actress Park Min Young‘s first C-drama and she looks so unexpectedly fantastic in this role it keeps me curious to see more. All I’ve seen are official and BTS stills of Park Min Young … Continue reading →
This rumor is sure to make Healer fans hella happy, even if it’s as much a shot in the dark as anything to come from entertainment gossip. Both Ji Chang Wook and Park Min Young‘s star rose another notch after doing the cult favorite Healer, a drama that didn’t get the domestic or even international mainstream ratings but definitely has … Continue reading →
Color me genuinely impressed with the early results from K-actress Park Min Young‘s foray into Chinese dramas. While idol-actress Suzy was reportedly the production’s first choice as leading lady, ultimately I think it worked out wonderfully all around for Park Min Young to accept period C-drama Braveness of the Ming. Acting opposite Hans Zhang, who is no stranger to working … Continue reading →
I’m tempted to ask for a re-do on the upcoming period C-drama God of War Zhao Zhi Long, or at least a re-do on Yoona‘s portion only so that she can get her drama look transformed into something suitable to highlight her lanky modern beauty. It’s distressing that the production turned her into a washed out servant girl look, a … Continue reading →
With the way some K-drama castings have gone recently, and the general low pay long hours environment, it’s no wonder more and more actors and actresses are heading overseas to China to work. Last month there was quite the buzz over Suzy possibly being cast as the leading lady in an upcoming period C-drama. It would be her first overseas … Continue reading →
This is a two-fer bit of news to me though neither aspect surprises me when the entertainment world is all about remakes and crossovers. Park Min Young is experiencing a bona fide career resurgence thanks to her well-received performance in the cult hit Healer. The drama didn’t get sterling ratings when it aired but had quite a vocal online audience. … Continue reading →
