I feel like the normalization of the fringes of tastes and desires starts when the average person knows someone who likes it, or someone who knows someone. It’s not necessarily a moral decision but more a comfort level, and the upcoming Netflix K-movie Moral Sense (Love and Leashes) will take on a new topic in the traditionally vanilla spaces of … Continue reading →
Getting new or occasional viewers to check out K-dramas necessitates a story that is universal in connection but it must overcome subtitles and the general cheesiness factor that most still associate with it.

The fallout and alleged reveals continue to dig up painful memories from three years ago in 2018 on the production of MBC drama Time.

Kim Jung Hyun’s career was on … Continue reading →
Consider me surprised that this is getting an adaptation, but then not surprised after I read where it will air. Netflix continues to broaden its Korean entertainment offerings and other than producing K-dramas it has also bankrolled exclusive movies. The streaming giant will be adapting the Korean webtoon Moral Sense into a Netflix movie starring Seohyun of Girl’s Generation and … Continue reading →
All drama production has resumed since the last August into early September two week pause due to COVID-19 resurgence in South Korea.

I’ve been noncommittal with Go Kyung Pyo and Seohyun‘s upcoming drama Private Life but am adding interest seeing them in the September 2020 edition of Marie Claire Korea. Go Kyung Pyo is … Continue reading →

It’s only the 2nd year for the Seoul Awards, sponsored by Sports Seoul, but there must either be great marketing or someone knows all the A-listers because this year’s ceremony was nearly as star-studded as the prestigious Baeksang Awards.
