Call it the Suzy effect much like Park Eun Bin is rocketing the formerly unknown cable network ENA to superstardom thanks to her new drama. Streaming network Coupang Play is having a banner month thanks to K-drama Anna starring Suzy, Jung Eun Chae, and Kim Joon Han. It got great reviews for the directing by the female PD and also … Continue reading →
I have the hugest soft spot for idol-actress Suzy but I never go into her new drama or movie thinking she’s going to vastly improve. Incrementally for sure, that’s possible, but a great step forward hasn’t happened yet in her decade of acting. But this may be it, her new Coupang Play drama Anna premiered on Friday and with just … Continue reading →
The streaming only K-dramas continue to sneak up on me and also leave me tons to catch up on. I’m still behind on Kiss Sixth Sense and just caught one episode of Yumi’s Cells 2 so far. Coupang Play has another K-drama on deck called Anna starring Suzy as the titular Anna along with Kim Joon Han and Jung Eun … Continue reading →
This feels like a Suzy cosplay drama, maybe a show to show her range and perhaps even challenge and push her outside her comfort zone. She’s headlining the upcoming Coupang Play streaming K-drama Anna where she’s a downtrodden poor girl who falls into a lie created life of a very rich woman. I would love to know how to transform … Continue reading →
Okay, I can totally see this but also totally never see it happening. But if fan casting and fan fiction wants to run with it then it’s a very suitable pairing. Suzy and Park Bo Gum have worked together multiple times hosting and the most recent at the 2022 Baeksang Arts Awards. Their interaction at the ceremony especially with the … Continue reading →
The annual Baeksang Arts Awards was held this Friday night in Seoul and the 2022 edition totally dropped some surprises and some expected wins. In a first, the winner of the Popularity Awards Junho and Kim Tae Ri also won the Best Acting prizes in their respective categories. Junho took home Best Actor Drama for The Red Sleeve Cuff and … Continue reading →
Usually fashion events in K-ent have a handful of stars attending, if I see six or more then it’s a solid event but this weekend’s Christian Dior soiree in Seoul had easily a dozen probably more big name and popular stars in attendance for a full fete. There were actual drama reunions such as Suzy and Nam Joo Hyuk, so … Continue reading →
The casting flood continues in K-ent this week and another drama has finalized the main lead roles. Suzy was already confirmed for The Girl Downstairs, the K-drama adaptation of webtoon Lee Doona, and now her male lead is the just returned from military service Yang Se Jong.

Is Suzy just playing herself here, heh! If so then there is plenty to look forward to for sure. Suzy is in talks for the Netflix drama The Girl Downstairs, which is adapted from a popular Naver webtoon titled Lee Du Na. The titular Lee Du Na is the center spot of an idol group who suddenly retires and started … Continue reading →
I think most long time drama watchers know that K-actress Kim Tae Hee has been the unmoving consensus among K-ent and K-netizens for her Top Beauty. This week there is an article discussing the successor to the Top Beauty Per Decade and the feeling that there is no consensus decision. In the 1980’s the pick was Hwang Shin Hye, and … Continue reading →
In the currently airing SBS drama Our Beloved Summer, male lead Choi Woo Shik‘s character is a successful adult artist after being an academic loser in high school.

This year 2021 didn’t see K-actress Suzy in any acting project but she’s bookended it with 2020’s Start-Up and 2022’s The Second Anna. Start-Up was definitely a Suzy type of role, plucky and determined with a down-to-earth charm, but for The Second Anna she’s going to play a woman who lies about her life and ends up living another life. … Continue reading →
Okay, don’t get your jammies wedged, I do know the picture above is super duper old. But it felt fitting as the two winners have worked together before, nearly a decade ago and all signs point to likely in the future due to how often the A-list actors and actresses are shuffled in casting. The 2021 Seoul Drama Awards was … Continue reading →
