This is certainly a depressing way to get some press, and even the old adage that there is no such thing as bad publicity doesn’t seem to apply here as I can’t see an upside. K-ent media is addressing the long running ratings woes that have plagued KBS, above and beyond the general ratings depressed landscape among all the broadcasters. … Continue reading →
It’s been soooooo long since the all three big networks simultaneously premiered a new drama during a prime time slot. For example, I still remember the “which one will I watch first?” conundrum and excitement around epic three-way premieres like Cinderella Unni, Personal Taste, and Prosecutor Princess. There are many different ways to slice a premiere night ratings three way, but … Continue reading →
Normally a pre-airing pictorial of drama cast members will always features the OTP, what with romance being part and parcel of almost every K-drama. Sometimes it would expand to include all four leads in varying pairings, which makes this two male leads only pictorial featuring Sassy Go Go‘s Lee Won Geun and Ji Soo all the more rare and appreciated. … Continue reading →
Even though I was already looking forward to upcoming KBS Mon-Tues drama Sassy Go Go, I’m still surprised by how much I really really liked the long preview. The drama doesn’t just look promising, I’m already connected with the trials and tribulations of the two leads played by Jung Eun Ji and Lee Won Geun.

I love it when high school dramas sweetly explores friendships in a sincere way, understanding that teens aren’t necessarily about love and angst as much as high school life is driven primarily around interpersonal interactions.

Seeing the combination of Jung Eun Ji in sa chool uniform brings back all the feels from Answer Me 1997, even before I dig into anticipating her new drama Sassy Go Go. It’s not a bad nostalgia trip to be one since that was her best role to date, and the better of the two AM dramas released so far. … Continue reading →
Upcoming KBS Mon-Tues drama Sassy Go Go is trying its hardest to dish out the perky and cute in equal measure and so far it’s succeeding with me. The first previews were intentionally dorky and silly but got the point across – this is one earnest school yard tale about kids navigating the pitfalls of high school life using cheer or … Continue reading →
I caution anyone not in a supremely peppy mood from watching the first teaser for upcoming KBS Mon-Tues drama Sassy Go Go. It’s like a jolt of energy and cheer right to the noggin, and frankly left me a bit dizzy from too much high school pep shooting off the screen. At least it’s a confirmation that the drama is … Continue reading →
KBS has assembled a real solid cast for upcoming Mon-Tues drama Sassy Go Go (formerly called Cheer Up). It might not deal with as heavy topics as MBC did with its school drama this year Angry Mom, and will hopefully crib the good parts of Who Are You: School 2015 without taking along the draggy aspects. The first stills are … Continue reading →
KBS is getting the cast together fast for upcoming Mon-Tues drama Sassy Go Go (formerly called Cheer Up), which makes sense since the drama is scheduled to air at the end of September following Eccentric Daughter-in-law (The Virtual Bride). With Kim Yoo Jung passing on the title role, Jung Eun Ji has stepped in as a perfect choice to play … Continue reading →
