This Sunday’s episode 6 rose a teeny bit in ratings to 14.880% but the story for me went back on … Continue reading →
Man, if it weren’t for Arthdal Chronicles as the outlier, and TBH everyone did think would be a huge hit, then I would believe that Song Joong Ki has the midas touch. Every drama other than AC where he has been a lead has been ratings hits and this new one Reborn Rich is setting new cable records. Episode 4 … Continue reading →
Okay, this is a dicey opinion with room for nuance. The first criticism of hit jTBC drama Reborn Rich (The Chaebol’s Youngest Son) is here, and of course there will be negativity that accompanies anything that is trending, A reporter wrote about Song Joong Ki having excessive camera filters in Reborn Rich playing the 20-something college student era of his … Continue reading →
The Korean drama expansion continues into the end of the year as the K-ent contingent made their presence known at this week’s 2022 International Emmy Awards. Not to be confused with the Primetime Emmy’s which are more prestigious covering top US shows, the International Emmy’s are more run the entire spectrum and probably harder to compare shows and performances across … Continue reading →
I didn’t pay attention to the airing schedule for Reborn Rich (The Chaebol’s Youngest Son) so it was like a treat from the drama gods to wake up on Sunday with a new episode 3! jTBC is airing three episodes each week from Fri-Sun and what a great way to kick off a ratings hit and critically lauded new drama. … Continue reading →

Well that was a quick turnaround for what could have been a really unexpected but somehow kinda neat K-ent star coupling. Song Joong Ki and Kim Tae Ri have each swiftly denied the dating rumors after someone claimed to have seen them dating incognito in Paris complete with a grainy picture of two people’s backs walking on the street. Surprisingly … Continue reading →
Ok, this dating combo is so out of left field I’m still craning my neck to wonder where the heck it came from. Perhaps it’s not so surprising to fans of the two stars swept up together since they worked together before and only had complimentary things to say about each other during the promo of their movie. I’m talking … Continue reading →
This is looking like a battle of the acting greats with Lee Sung Min and Song Joong Ki going mano-a-mano in the new teaser for Reborn Rich (The Youngest Son of the Chaebol). jTBC has slipped a bit since that year stretch where it was putting out unexpected strong dramas but remains capable of producing quality fare.
