Go Sung Hee will be the lucky (or unlucky) leading lady to join Park Shi Hoo in his upcoming TV Chosun sageuk Wind, Cloud, and Rain.

For some reason I feel like KBS drama Are You Human Too has been airing for a long time in the Mon-Tues slot but it still has a few more weeks of run time before creepy rom-com successor Lovely Horribly … Continue reading
I don’t know if it’s intention or not but I definitely feel the horror-esque vibe of upcoming KBS drama Lovely Horribly. For female lead Song Ji Hyo it’s the scene of her walking in the rain with a shovel over … Continue reading
I feel like K-ent is determine to boil anyone’s distaste or reservations towards actor Park Shi Hoo like a frog by normalizing his return to drama land. The success of 2017 weekend drama My Golden Life was due to the … Continue reading
This drama setup actually sounds interesting in that K-drama fated and full of coincidences sort of way, and yet the casting just grinds it all to a near halt for me. The next KBS Mon-Tues drama premiering in early August … Continue reading
