School 2017 Continues the KBS Hit Tradition of Casting Rising Stars Who Later Go on to Major Stardom with Kim Jung Hyun, Jang Dong Yoon, and Kim Se Jung

I confess to skipping the last installment of the KBS drama School franchise, namely School 2017. Four years ago I looked at the cast and didn’t know anyone and thought it was a bunch of randos so passed. Now I’m ready to find time for a watch thanks to the incredible success of the cast in the intervening years, and … Continue reading →

New SBS Mon-Tues Drama Falsify Arrives to Lead the Ratings Over A King Loves and School 2017

Being one week late to the new drama premiere party hasn’t hurt new Mon-Tues SBS drama Falsify, and in fact may have helped as the other two new K-dramas that premiered last week on the rival networks both landed with a thud. Today’s premiere of Falsify took in 11.6% for episode 1 and rising in episode 2 to 12.6%. Over … Continue reading →

Next Mon-Tues is the premiere of not just one but two new K-dramas so that’ll shake things up a bit. MBC will be airing sageuk A Kings Love, going up against the midway point of the earlier arriving sageuk My Sassy Girl on SBS, leaving KBS the outlier option as the network premieres the latest iteration of the well received … Continue reading →

KBS Releases First Thriller Vibe Teaser for Upcoming School 2017

I guess there’s not much story to tell within the School series if it’s about the happy and well-adjusted lives of ordinary high school students in Korea. I’m sure there are such kids but within the School universe it feels like everyone who gets screen time is dealing with one of the rainbow spectrum of school yard woes. In School … Continue reading →

I don’t have much of an opinion about the sudden casting news around School 2017, but I am a firm believer that you get what you pay for. If casting newbies is what KBS wanted that would be fine but I’m getting whiplash feeling like the network couldn’t even decide which direction it wanted to go.

Healthy competition is good for all, keeping up the intensity and spurring achievement to greater heights. It’s been a very healthy competition with nary a kitten meow of a cat fight between child actress turned leading actresses Kim Yoo Jung and Kim So Hyun, proving that their fans are either mature or maybe the same group that loves them both. … Continue reading →
