There is a reason that summer Hollywood movies are called popcorn flicks, it’s brainless fun and the emphasis is on FUN. tvN action drama Vagabond has been no fun so far, earlier on it had to be serious and sad because an entire plane full of passengers including a bunch of kids died because of a greedy government and corporate … Continue reading →
I…..I wish Vagabond was straight up good. Good and enjoyable rather than good and exhausting, which is good with an asterisk and we all know that’s what will follow a project when all is said and done. SBS Fri-Sat drama Vagabond aired up to episode 8 this weekend, halfway done now and perhaps halfway into uncovering the conspiracy that caused … Continue reading →
My growing frustration with SBS Fri-Sat drama Vagabond is that it could be so much better. There is a compelling conspiracy and tight action sequences, but the writing is in all CAPS with no subtlety or depth because everything still goes a mile a minute. I’m exhausted watching, without the pauses there is no time to absorb what is happening … Continue reading →
The second week of SBS Fri-Sat night drama Vagabond basically is unchanged from the first week, so I say this because those who like it will continue to do so and those who don’t probably have no reason to start now. Episode 3 ratings are 7.3%, 8.4%, 9.3% and episode 4 took in 6.8%, 8.1%, 10.2%, so this big budget … Continue reading →
Well this is an interesting casting news but I’ll have to see it inked to believe it will happen. K-ent is reporting that Park Bo Gum has been offered the male lead in upcoming K-movie Wonderland, which made news earlier this year with Suzy being cast as the female lead. Park Bo Gum and Suzy are awards ceremony staples together … Continue reading →
It’s premiere week with some big name dramas I’ve been waiting for but due to work business and travel I’ve only been able to watch the new SBS Fri-Sat night drama Vagabond. Episode 1 aired this Friday and the network split it into three parts with commercials in between to maximize the ad revenue so the ratings were 6.3%, 8.0%, … Continue reading →
It’s finally time to start running for the titular Vagabond, a drama that finished filming months and months ago and feels like it’s been promoting for that long as well. The cast of the SBS Fri-Sat drama attended the press conference to kick off the week before the upcoming premiere this Friday and everyone looks super different than their characters … Continue reading →
In the few years that Suzy and Lee Seung Gi have matured since their first collaboration in sageuk Gu Family Book, and moving their characters up a few hundred years to modern times, some things never change. In the latest Suzy-centric teaser for upcoming SBS action thriller Vagabond, she still reads her dialogue so flat and it’s distracting against the … Continue reading →
If one didn’t know that upcoming tvN drama Vagabond was an action thriller then the visually loud drama posters will hammer that point home. There are guns, guns, and more guns, and also lots of angry and intense stares. Well, male lead Lee Seung Gi is delivering the intensity for sure with plenty of anger fueling his quest for truth … Continue reading →
I’m so ready to go on an adventure with Lee Seung Gi as the titular SBS drama lead in Vagabond. Wherever he’s headed it looks gorgeously picturesque such as the latest stills from the overseas location shoot in Morocco. He’s got the seasoned and weathered angry look down pat as a stuntman searching for answers in a plane crash that … Continue reading →
It’s been over a year since K-actress Suzy was cosplaying a government agent running, shooting, and escaping in upcoming SBS drama Vagabond. I hope she’s ready to dive into promoting the drama airing next month because she’s go glammed up recently in all her CF and endorsement events the visuals are even more incongruous to sell her as a rough … Continue reading →
Looks like SBS is on a Lee Seung Gi roll from late summer into early fall, what with his variety show Little Forest and now the airing date confirmed for thriller Vagabond. Come September 20th, fully pre-produced Vagabond will finally debut with likely mid-to-high expectations what with the big name cast especially the reunion with his former costar Suzy who … Continue reading →
Movies may be K-actress Suzy‘s next stop and she’s got one success and one failure in that medium. She hit it big as the younger role for Architecture 101 but flopped hard when she headlined the sageuk The Sound of a Flower. Today came reports that she’s been offered the female lead in Late Autumn director Kim Tae Yong‘s next … Continue reading →
