Cable network jTBC ended its run of the Fri-Sat thriller police drama Sketch this weekend, averaging ratings in the 2.5% range which qualifies as a solid success for the cast and crew. Lately tvN and even jTBC have seen ratings upwards of 5-6% that it’s easy to forget these are paid cable networks so ratings are lower plus the some … Continue reading →
The weekend drama time slot now has not just one but three excellent quality K-dramas to check out, and unsurprisingly all are on the cable networks. On the second half of airing is Lawless Lawyer on tvN with the incredible chemistry of Lee Jun Ki and Seo Ye Ji, then we have Rain and Lee Dong Gun going mano-a-mano over … Continue reading →
I heaved big sigh of relief with the weekend premiere of jTBC thriller police drama Sketch, for the fact that both male leads are faves of mine and totally due for a drama that audiences like and reward with ratings. Starring Rain, Lee Dong Gun, and Lee Sun Bin, Sketch was under promoted and even I nearly forgot about its … Continue reading →
Please drama gods do not make Lee Dong Gun the bad guy in upcoming jTBC drama Sketch. I can handle him being the antagonist/nemesis to Rain’s male lead but not the ultimate big bad, because I need the two to join forces later on after overcoming initial disagreement with each other. The reunion of the two male leads from Sang … Continue reading →
Who else has a sense of deja vu seeing the first drama stills from the upcoming jTBC supernatural-tinged police thriller Sketch. Of course the first stills are of leading man Rain but I legit felt like I was either seeing a more scruffy version of Rain’s character in Fugitive: Plan B or Rain photoshopped into one of the many pictures … Continue reading →
There’s currently something about noonas and rain going on at jTBC Fri-Sat but come mid-May all the flirting and slice-of-life romance will give way to stopping killers by sketching out the future three days in advance. Filming has started on thriller K-drama Sketch starring Rain, Lee Dong Gun, and Lee Sun Bin along with veteran actor Jung Jin Young. The … Continue reading →
We’ve got a full cast peeps and it’s looking mighty fine, at least on the male leads side. Rain and Lee Dong Gun are teaming up once again more than a decade after Sang Doo, Let’s Go to School and also doing the double male lead drama casting that’s more and more popular lately. Rain plays a detective who pairs … Continue reading →
Right now I would have trouble picking Lee Sun Bin out of a time up of tall, thin, sleek-faced Korean actresses and idols because I haven’t watched her act other than in dramas I checked out early on. She looks like a mashed up hybrid of Song Hye Kyo, Han Sun Hwa, and Park Han Byul and has done a … Continue reading →
The male leads are coming together first for upcoming thriller K-drama Sketch, and it’s funny that both had their biggest hit K-dramas the same year in 2004 and my favorite K-drama roles of theirs were in the same drama! Lee Dong Gun is confirmed as the second male lead opposite Rain for Sketch, scheduled to air in late spring/early summer 2018 … Continue reading →
Good news for Rain fans, myself included of course since he’s just gotten more endearing as a person over the years even though his acting and taste in picking projects remains woefully inconsistent. He’s coming back in 2018 with a new drama, going to cable network jTBC to headline the action thriller Sketch (not to be confused with upcoming SBS … Continue reading →
