It’s a balance scale if you add up the ratings for two dramas to equal the ratings for at third one, and even more astonishing that the two added dramas air on free prime time networks and the highest rated drama on paid cable. Wed-Thurs is total dudsville in the prime time dramas Come and Hug Me and The Undateables … Continue reading →
Eeeps, I have concerning news to report for those who are as enchanted by tvN rom-com drama Why Secretary Kim as I am. The drama has apparently switched screenwriters! WTF you may be screaming, but the switch actually happened after episode 2, with original screenwriter Jung Eun Young who did Boarding House No. 24 joined by two new screenwriters Baek … Continue reading →
These days I’m happy when any drama does well in ratings just because it’s rarer and rarer, but when it’s happening to a drama I’m fond of and watching in real life the happiness is compounded. tvNÂ already has Lawless Lawyer doing well still which remains an intense watch, but for summer time lightness and rom-com laughter it’s all about Why … Continue reading →
The monthly K-drama actor and actress buzz rankings are out and June 2018 has the fast surging jTBC drama Miss Hammurabi place leads Sung Dong Il and Go Ara in the top 1 and 2 spots. Good for them! Coming in after is Park Min Young in 3rd followed by her Why Secretary Kim costar Park Seo Joon in 4th. … Continue reading →
I’m genuinely giddy with joy, rather selfishly even, that tvN webtoon adapted drama Why Secretary Kim has premiered as a hit this week. The drama airing on the cable network premiered with 5.757% ratings in episode one and episode two decreased slightly to 5.403%. It’s actually a feat in this day and age when rom-coms get low ratings and manga/webtoon … Continue reading →
I feel like the production of upcoming tvN Wed-Thurs drama Why Secretary Kim really knows the goldmine it has thanks to the casting. The overflow of cute promos featuring the pretty of female lead Park Min Young and the handsome of male lead Park Seo Joon is quite obvious but I’m not complaining. The drama premieres this week and even … Continue reading →
I’m curious to see whether upcoming tvN drama Why Secretary Kim succeeds in the ratings, and if so whether it heralds the resurgence of leading lady Park Min Young. She never really left but after Sungkyunkwan Scandal and City Hunter she lost her buzz for a bit, and I blame the wacky Man of Honor which I couldn’t help but … Continue reading →
We’re still two weeks out from the premiere of tvN rom-com Why Secretary Kim but the drama has maintained a steady pace in releasing promos. The second drama poster dropped with Park Seo Joon ripping up the resignation letter from his trusty Secretary Kim played by Park Min Young but she’s so prepared she has additional letters in hand. He’s … Continue reading →
I probably have my hopes a little too optimistic for upcoming tvN drama Why Secretary Kim, but it’s understandable since the cable network continues to deliver solid dramas while the big three seem incapable of churning out consistent quality in any genre. Why Secretary Kim is adapted from a popular webtoon and the PD of This Life is Our First, … Continue reading →
The visuals with the leads of Why Secretary Kim are so spot on for the roles based on the webtoon and vis-a-vis each other that it makes up for whatever flimsy narrative is in the teasers so far. All I know is that the company president Park Seo Joon is harmlessly narcissistic and his secretary Park Min Young appears prettily … Continue reading →
Oh dear these two are going to be such eye candy onscreen. The first couple stills are out of Park Seo Joon and Park Min Young in upcoming tvN romance Why Secretary Kim, and by couple I mean in the same frame looking like a couple attending a black tie affair even though they are likely still just company president … Continue reading →
I’m getting a small crush on Park Min Young’s entire look in upcoming tvN drama Why Secretary Kim. The makeup, hair color and style, and of course her smart yet feminine secretary attire, she gets a solid A for radiating surround sound level charm. It contrasts nicely with Park Seo Joon who is the rich powerful boss yet is made … Continue reading →
I know K-dramas love to feature chaebols and my favorite of those types of representations is the delusional self-absorbed type who is all bark and no bite, harmless in their narcissism like it’s a hobby. Park Seo Joon gets to play that very type of chaebol complete with his very capable dedicated secretary played by Park Min Young, with tvN … Continue reading →
