This is a very timely and nice cameo appearance with lots of synergy to spare. Former drama costars Lee Min Ki and Jung So Min will be making a guest starring appearance in hit tvN rom-com Why Secretary Kim, with the connection being the two worked with Secretary Kim PD who directed their also hit rom-com last year This Life … Continue reading →
A successful drama run these days is rarer than ever especially in the romantic comedy genre where it’s basically a unicorn. Just wrapped tvN Mon-Tues romance drama This Life is Our First (Because This is Our First Life), with less comedy than expected but still chuckles aplenty, held a much deserved cast drama wrap party this week as the final … Continue reading →
I don’t know if this is much ado about nothing but it’s certainly gotten more attention as the drama airing has gone on for tvN‘s hit rom-com This Life is Our First (Because This is Our First Life). Japanese entertainment has now taken note of similarities of that drama with the hit J-dorama from 2016 We Married as a Job … Continue reading →
I spent last weekend catching up on OCN fantasy thriller procedural Black and gushing all over it, but that’s like one amazing meal compared to the consistent afternoon snack that has been sustaining me for the last five weeks in tvN rom-com This Life is Our First (Because This is Our First Life). Last week’s episode 10 broke 4% ratings … Continue reading →
My favorite new K-drama is here and Mon-Tues will be owned by tvN‘s cohabitation rom-com This Life is Our First. As suspected when I heard the premise and saw the first promos, this is the K-version of hit J-dorama Nigeru wa Haji da ga Yaku ni Tatsu (We Married as a Job or the literal translation title of Runaway is Ashamed But … Continue reading →
Two new Mon-Tues dramas are here and neither appear to make a strong splash and definitely nowhere near contending with time slot leader Temperature of Love. Witches Court on KBS nearly doubled the ratings at 6.6% over MBC‘s 20th Century Boy and Girl which aired two hours of new episodes to make up for the preemption last week. 20th Century … Continue reading →
There’s quite a handful of new K-dramas arriving next week and the first to drop next Monday October 9th is tvN Mon-Tues rom-com This Life is Our First. The drama marks Lee Min Ki’s first drama lead return in ten years since Dalja’s Spring, whereas Jung So Min has been in a drama tear in recent years most recently with … Continue reading →
The cuteness is tripled in the drama poster for upcoming tvN series This Life is Our First (Because This is Our First Life) when I count leads Jung So Min and Lee Min Ki before I even got to the fluffy white cat in his arms. They have adorably quirky facial expressions, hers says she scored a house to live … Continue reading →
There is a new reason in K-drama land to bring together two fated leads in onscreen cohabitation, if one is homeless and the other house poor then what perfect serendipity for them to cross paths at the park. The vibe for upcoming tvN drama This Life is Our First is totally bathed in the cable network’s light airy atmosphere, as … Continue reading →
Cable network tvN is now no longer the sole player in the paid to watch market with rival jTBC making huge strides in the last two years in airing popular and critically well received dramas. That doesn’t mean tvN is on the downward trajectory and I hope the network continues to churn out interesting dramas without succumbing to the fallacy … Continue reading →
One is striking while the iron is hot and the other is coming back after a decade hiatus, I have high hopes this vast gulf will bring together two talented acting stars for drama magic onscreen this fall. Cable network tvN has confirmed the leads for its fall drama This Life is Our First, first with news that movie actor … Continue reading →
