It’s time for the KBS 2013 Drama Awards and this one was once again a mixed bag. I was expecting the Daesang to go to Lee Bo Young since she headlined the biggest ratings drama of the year with My Daughter Seo Young for KBS but its airing dates may have worked against it since it started in September of … Continue reading →
Guh, episode 7 of Prime Minister and I was soooooo good. Its ratings went up to 8.9% since there was no competition with MBC preempting Empress Ki and SBS did the same with Warm Words. No clue whether this bit of ratings jump will stick but for now I’m thrilled because episode 7 was funny and substantive and increasing the … Continue reading →
While MBC is preempting both episodes of Empress Ki and SBS is doing the same for Warm Words, KBS is the sole network airing a new episode of its Mon-Tues drama Prime Minister and I. But only one episode 7 will air tonight and thus the broadcast schedule will be disrupted. KBS has decided to add one more episode to … Continue reading →
I think there is only one episode of Prime Minister and I next week, and in fact most of the K-dramas might have one or even both episodes preempt due to year end award shows and the like. I’m cool with that since I’m also on vacation and all, but I’m going to be hella anxious if episode 7 ends … Continue reading →
I thought episode 5 of Prime Minister and I was a tiny bit of a slow patch but wowsers did episode 6 get right back to business and deliver all sorts of feelings and narrative reveals left and right. The romance isn’t anywhere near floating to the surface yet but that strange new family Yul and Da Jung have created … Continue reading →
Just an FYI that I’ll probably only have time for baby recaps in the next two weeks since I’m vacation so don’t think I’ve dropped any dramas or have suddenly gone from love-to-hate. Prime Minister and I ended episode 4 on a high note so the wait has felt interminable for episode 5 to drop and now that it’s here … Continue reading →
One of the reasons I know Prime Minister and I has hooked me good and garnered my full attention is that I’m interested in all aspects of the OTP relationship development. Of course the skinship (and there must be copious amounts of it) is a top priority, but I’m also just as invested in them becoming a functional married couple … Continue reading →
I’m mentally ready for In Ho to step up in Prime Minister and I because the narrative needs it otherwise he’s as useful as window dressing, but I’m not emotionally ready for Yoon Si Yoon to either turn bad or become a totally morose and hopeless third wheel in the OTP relationship. This drama is moving so fast whatever is … Continue reading →
My love for Lee Bum Soo continues to reach new heights with his droolworthy performance so far in Prime Minister and I. I also now love Yoona and find her just adorable and gorgeous. Her casual looks in this drama are so down-to-earth without being purposely fugly and her dressed up looks are to-die-for. She was an ethereal vision in … Continue reading →
I’m positively over-the-moon with how wonderful Prime Minister and I continues to be. An hour whips by and I have a giant grin plastered on my face the entire time. The ancillary stuff like plotting uncle and brooding aide and lovelorn chief of staff is sprinkled lightly to keep the action moving, but the drama understands its central purpose which … Continue reading →
I love this drama and I love even more how happy it makes me. A drama needn’t be perfect to love it as long as it conveys the feeling of love perfectly. While the OTP of Da Jung and Yul in Prime Minister and I are nowhere near tumbling into blissful romance, their are edging closer toward jumping onto a … Continue reading →
I re-watched both episodes of Prime Minister and I this weekend just because. It really is that good right off the bat. If I don’t get episode 3 soon I might snap like a frozen twig in Winter. Thank god there are new drama stills to thaw me out a little. I confess to finding Yoona really pretty for the … Continue reading →
Despite its low rated start, Prime Minister and I is firing on all cylinders and everything works right off the bat. That deserves accolades for that alone, and the rest we can only hope remains just as good and entertaining. This is one of the most out-there contract marriage set ups what with a Prime Minister and a tabloid reporter … Continue reading →
