So we just started the month of May in 2023 so the initial discussion last year that Arthdal Chronicles 2 will air in the first part of 2023 is clearly not happening. But whether it will be ready for a premiere later this year or end up a 2024 drama is still unclear. What’s clear is that the drama wrapping … Continue reading →
Oh this is so out of nowhere and super interesting drama news! K-ent is reporting that a sageuk drama (or melodrama romance haha) is being prepped for 2023 with the not so interesting name of Spy but a super intriguing potential pairing of Jo Jung Seok and Shin Se Kyung.

Well, it’s clearly countdown time, but all things considering a really positive time in the life of K-actor Kang Tae Oh. He’s hit it daebak and is leaving on a swell of public interest and positive impressions thanks to his role in Extraordinary Attorney Woo.

Well, why am I not surprised that if someone wants to throw more money at Arthdal Chronicles then it will indeed get made. The second season of the period drama, always expected in terms of narratively as the drama ended on a major cliffhanger and barely seemed to scratch the surface of the story, will be coming in 2023 and … Continue reading →
A kind and generous heart paired with a beautiful visuals is reason enough to watch Shin Se Kyung‘s Youtube channel. The actress has been running her own YT channel since 2018 and this year in 2021 she continued her annual act of donating all her channel earnings to charity.

Earlier I posted that Shin Se Kyung was looking for a new agency after her long time contract with Namoo Actors expired but it was not official and some fans believed she would end up re-signing. I don’t think it’s good or bad whether she leaves Namoo, the agency has shepherded her career through her entire twenties and she got … Continue reading →

Another drama ended this week, and from the buzz (or lack thereoff), it appears jTBC Wed-Thurs romance Run On elicited audience interaction as light in touch as the slice-of-life it was presenting. This one I watched two episodes of and enjoyed it well enough and felt like I would like it more if I marathoned it since there wasn’t anything … Continue reading →

All I hope for is the drama not falling apart in the end but there is one … Continue reading →
I’m so annoyed to be sooooo busy right now with work that I’m still behind on newly aired dramas, including the one I’m most excited about this December the double dose of OTP jTBC drama Run On. The network aired one of my favorite dramas of this year in 18 Again (so many tears and feels!) and Run On just … Continue reading →
