The return of the on Olympic hiatus weekend K-dramas slowed the ratings increase for the two new arrivals Forecasting Love and Weather and Twenty Five, Twenty One but now two weekends in it’s clear these two will be set as hit and bigger hit under its belt. Twenty Five, Twenty One broke the 10% ratings mark this Sunday with episode … Continue reading →
At this rate I think the majority of K-ent stars are going to get COVID-19, I barely even cover the stars who have gotten it in the last few months since the Omicron spike starting in November but it’s just nonstop the news about testing positive. Today it’s K-actress Kim Tae Ri, who is reportedly doing fine and just in … Continue reading →
There has been so many new K-dramas recently but the big Netflix hit has been school yard zombie drama All of Us are Dead. It premiered a month ago and according to Flixpatrol data as of the end of February 28, 2022 it’s still in the worldwide top 10 at number 4. A surprise is seeing tvN drama Twenty Five, … Continue reading →
At this point its safe to call both tvN drama Twenty Five, Twenty One and jTBC drama Forecasting Love and Weather both successes. It helps that the two do not compete head on in ratings due to the different time slot though airing on the same nights of Sat-Sun. That eliminates the fandom wank to compete and allows both dramas … Continue reading →
It’s the third week of airing for Twenty Five, Twenty One and Forecasting Love and Weather and its facing the more typical big line up of competing K-dramas which are back after Olympic hiatus, and for one drama after scandal hiatus. Episode 3 of Twenty Five dropped below 8% to 7.956% and for Forecasting Love and Weather it dropped from … Continue reading →
I personally did an eeny-meeny-miny-mo in deciding which of the two new weekend K-dramas to watch first, I didn’t want to watch both and compare as the two are competing with each other in ratings due to different time slot and also I wanted to just enjoy one drama and soak in the vibe for the time being. I landed … Continue reading →
The weekends are going to be smooth sailing for the next few weeks thanks to the successful arrival of two new romance dramas as the second week of airing appears to cement the domestic viewers interest in the stories. jTBC romance Forecasting Love and Weather was the lower of the two premiere ratings last week but has been increasing about … Continue reading →
It’s a sigh of relief after the weekend premieres of two new cable dramas, and probably the biggest winners from opening weekend’s good ratings and good reviews (critics and K-netizens) are the young male leads Nam Joo Hyuk and Song Kang. They even give off similar auras as tall, boy-next-door type male actors and I can see them being up … Continue reading →
Both were underdogs before it aired and it’s a validation that something about each drama brings in their viewers. The second episode of newly premiered Sat-Sun dramas Forecasting Love and Weather on jTBC and tvN having Twenty Five, Twenty One both saw ratings increases from their premieres. Forecasting Love and Weather increased from 4.514% to 5.455% and even more impressive … Continue reading →
It’s important to preface that the two new Sat-Sun K-dramas are NOT directly competing with each other for eyeballs. For tvN drama Twenty Five, Twenty One, it airs at 9:10 pm, and over at jTBC the drama Forecasting Love and Weather comes on at 10:30 pm. That makes for what I love most, each drama really competing with itself, does … Continue reading →
I feel like this drama is more suited to air in the summer, or perhaps since it’s telling a time spanning story through four years then it will also cycle through the seasons as the story ebbs and flows so it’s suitable to air anytime and still deliver the feels. Twenty Five, Twenty One is slated to drop next week … Continue reading →
Whoever is doing the posters for February 2022 tvN drama Twenty Five Twenty One is going out of his/her way to emulate Start Up in vibe and presentation. The newest poster has leads Kim Tae Ri and Nam Joo Hyuk hanging out against a blue sky backdrop, take out her popsicle and his can of soda and it’s just Dal … Continue reading →
I just realized two dramas are premiering in February that have just the age in the title, lol sorry for not making the connection earlier. jTBC‘s Thirty Nine deals with three ladies nearing their forties and the ancillary emotional and life issues, while tvN is bringing Twenty Five Twenty One with the two leads navigating the start of their adulthood. … Continue reading →
