I’ve been waiting for the drama to really give me a balanced OTP to care about, to make both ends of the main leads equally invested in the outcome. Episode 8 of Queen Cheorin (Mr. Queen), by taking the Queen out of the palace and making the King actually think about what he’s dealing with, raised the stakes and intensity … Continue reading →
A new record is getting set and I’m getting more interested in following the ratings than the drama itself. It would also be cool to see tvN gain back the throne from rival jTBC. Sat-Sun drama Queen Cheorin (Mr. Queen) increased in ratings yet again, crossing the 12% mark to hit 12.414%. It’s tied with Goblin as the fasted tvN … Continue reading →
While I can totally see why real So Young tried to commit suicide and maybe even wished she was somebody else and then transferred souls with modern day chef Bong Hwan. But in Queen Cheorin (Mr. Queen) a lot of the hijinks aren’t really gender driven and more modern day person attitudes transplanted to Joseon era for shocks and laughs. … Continue reading →
tvN Sat-Sun drama Queen Cheorin (Mr. Queen) has proven itself to be the winning ride for the network to end 2020 on, with episode 5 today increasing again in ratings to 11.337%. I personally like but don’t love it, it’s entertaining whenever I sit down to watch but I’m not actively wanting to see what happens to the story. My … Continue reading →
Sat-Sun K-drama Queen Cheorin (Mr. Queen) has settled into its rhythm and is exactly what South Korean viewers are looking for, with each episode ratings increasing and the most recent episode 4 breaking double digits with 10.447%.

Being active on the internet sometimes makes one believe that information being shared and discussed online would have real life impact. But it’s just a vocal minority sounding louder than actually is and real life has its own reactive beats. tvN Sat-Sun drama Queen Cheorin (Mr. Queen) was quite the topic of conversation since it’s premiere a week ago, from … Continue reading →
Oh wow, I’m neither surprised but still befuddled by so much ado about nothing. tvN was ready to celebrate the successful premiere of weekend fantasy sageuk Queen Cheorin (Mr. Queen), debuting with the second highest weekend ratings for the network and improving in the next episode. Either viewers didn’t get the memo that it was “fantasy”, hello time-travel and body-swapping!, … Continue reading →

I liked the premise of C-drama Go Princess Go better than the execution, because goodness was it so low rent it was basically rent-a-costume with whatever haphazard acting could be summoned up for the plot. But the “what if” was so fun to ponder – a modern day playboy male transported in soul back to the past into the body … Continue reading →
I’m so excited for tvN sageuk Queen Cheorin that I’m not even annoyed it can’t settle on an English drama title. I think using the Korean title would be best but first it went with No Touch Princess and now it’s going to be Mr. Queen. That’s a little to cheeky and I won’t want to run afoul of the … Continue reading →
I first noticed K-actress Shin Hye Sun‘s underrated comedic ability in Legend of the Blue Sea, she turned a stock clingly second female lead into a layered and endearing role. She’s great playing the straight woman in lead roles but I love when she acts out in immature ways that we can all relate to lol. She’s going to have … Continue reading →
