This totally makes sense as the existing K-drama deck on Netflix needs to continually be added to otherwise it just feels like the same few dramas being pushed with a new one or two added every month. SBS has signed a deal with Netflix to air it’s most popular older dramas on the streaming platform which should give new life … Continue reading →
Ooooh, a fun game, I want to play too! SBS is opening up a bulletin board with a poll open for 1 week asking viewers which of its drama OTPs do the fans want to see reunited in another drama again. Remember, only SBS dramas but there are sooooo many classics and great pairings to choose from. Currently viewers have … Continue reading →
The new prime time drama arrivals have officially ended for now until the next big transition period arrives, for now the last two weeks have seen four new K-dramas premiere and the ratings shake out. For the Wed-Thurs time slot, Ruler: Master of the Mask and Suspicious Partner have been airing for a month now so newly arrived sageuk Seven … Continue reading →
It’s new drama Wednesday, with not one but two new arrivals in the prime time slot. SBS has modern rom-com Suspicious Partner while MBC is offering up classic sageuk intrigue with Ruler: Master of the Mask, both joining KBS‘s quirky noir Mystery Queen which is in the middle of its run.

There was the election dance spoof and now there is a beat up the poor besotted male lead moment first teased as a romantic moment. At least female lead Nam … Continue reading →
An election themed dance off on the beautiful balmly spring streets of Seoul is a creative intro for upcoming SBS Wed-Thurs drama Suspicious Partner. I’m sufficiently entertained by how earnest and into it the entire cast gamely participates in this goofy bit, wringing comedy by committing to the silly. The drama arrives in two weeks after Saimdang: Light’s Diary finally … Continue reading →
If I’m going to pre-judge a K-drama OTP based solely on first stills then Ji Chang Wook and Nam Ji Hyun have just won my heart. Their new drama Suspicious Partner doesn’t arrive until the first week of May, airing on SBS Wed-Thur time slot following Saimdang: Light’s Diary so this is the perfect time to slowly ramp up promos … Continue reading →
I’m so excited for upcoming SBS Wed-Thurs drama Suspicious Partner, regardless of the leading lady casting carousel and the litany of title changes. I never got invested in currently airing sageuk Saimdang: Light’s Diary and judging from the steady around 10% ratings neither did the audience despite the big name return of Lee Young Ae from a decade long acting … Continue reading →
