So my post about how cable sageuk drama Missing Crown Prince was a meh offering starting off with low 1.452% ratings and male lead Suho’s idol background as well as criticism of female lead Hong Ye Ji was not necessarily premature as it was true at that time but 10 weeks later things have changed. The MBN weekend drama ended … Continue reading →
This weekend has the new jTBC drama Behind Your Touch airing now that hit rom-com King the Land has finished. Starring Han Ji Min as a vet with the ability to read minds after she touches someone or some animal’s butt pairing up with hot tempered city to countryside cop played by Lee Min Ki and joined by strange newcomer … Continue reading →
I feel like this stuff would be fine maybe even 10 years ago, 20 years ago definitely, but in this day and age when bodily autonomy is openly expected it’s just odd how this drama leans against it. jTBC drama Behind Your Touch has Han Ji Min playing a vet who can read minds when she touches the behind of … Continue reading →
The promos for this upcoming jTBC drama absolutely sell very specific product and for some reason it’s just not for me. The next Sat-Sun drama from the cable network will be Behind Your Touch starring Han Ji Min, Lee Min Ki, and Suho and it seems like a cross between Hometown Cha Cha Cha and a Stephen Chow movie. Han … Continue reading →
jTBC has confirmed another drama airing schedule, with Behind Your Touch (original title Hip) to premiere after King the Land, so in mid-August. This drama is from the screenwriter of critically acclaimed series The Light in Your Eyes (Brilliant) so will be a reunion with Han Ji Min as the female lead. The drama has Han Ji Min playing a … Continue reading →
Three in two weeks is a lot or at least curiously bunched together. After Yang Se Jong and Yook Sung Jae, idol Suho of EXO will also be enlisting for his mandatory military service this month in May 2020. He penned a handwritten letter to his fans and hopefully the schism in EXO has died down after some fan backlash … Continue reading →
Now this is more like it! The opening night red carpet of the 2019 Busan International Film Festival (BIFF) really delivered the wow factor with many famous names and faces showing up to support the local film industry. The big pairing to walk the red carpet together was Jung Woo Sung and Honey Lee looking impeccable in the respective black … Continue reading →
I’m so numb to the K-drama PPL escalating insanity but even I was almost jolted to annoyance upon spotting a cold coffee cup in male lead Suho‘s hands in the official drama poster for MBN cable drama Rich Man, adapted from the J-dorama Rich Man, Poor Woman. When everyone in a drama eats at Subway and/or frequents the same three … Continue reading →
I’m currently on J-dorama kick and boy does it feel like a much needed palate cleanser between my steady courses of K-dramas. That makes for a nice dovetail into the upcoming K-drama remake of one of my favorite J-doramas Rich Man, Poor Woman. The drama Rich Man will be airing on MBN and stars idol-actor Suho and K-actress Ha Yeon … Continue reading →
The arrival of the K-drama remake of J-dorama Rich Man, Poor Woman is actually earlier than I thought, with the shortened title of Rich Man premiering on cable network MBN on May 9th. I’m relatively interested for various reasons, love for the original, enough time passing that it would be nice to revisit the story again in a different presentation, … Continue reading →
The first stills are out for the K-drama adaptation of one of my favorite J-doramas of all time Rich Man, Poor Woman. The K-version is simply called Rich Man, maybe because the Poor Woman part is condescending but without it the whole obvious yet subtly executed dichotomy is less overt. Not to mention the Poor Woman is my favorite character … Continue reading →
Is it me or does it feel like a greater number than usual K-dramas are in production right now. Not complaining though too many of them are still in the legal/police/medical genre for me. Two that are not are part of the remake wave, namely OCN‘s K-version of British show Mistresses and MBN‘s remake of J-dorama Rich Man, Poor Woman. … Continue reading →
Leave it up to K-ent to once again drama cast to my consternation, well maybe that’s too pessimistic but it’s to my concern for sure. The casting is set for the upcoming K-drama remake of hit J-dorama Rich Man, Poor Woman, not a recent work but still has a fond spot in my heart and relatively high name recognition among … Continue reading →
