This past Mon-Tues concluded the airing of SBS drama Thirty But Seventeen, one of the rare ones for me where I thoroughly enjoyed the drama despite having no inclination to watch because of the two leads. I’m still not sold on male lead Yang Se Jong overall but liked his role and performance for this drama, whereas Shin Hye Sun … Continue reading →
Fate and romance are on the way for the leads of upcoming romance Thirty But Seventeen, and with a double side of time stopped awkwardness.

It look me a long time to fall for Yeon Woo Jin as an actor but once that switch its flipped then it’s here to stay.

It’s a done deal for SBS‘s next weekend drama Divorce Lawyer in Love. The drama has confirmed the casting of Yeon Woo Jin and Jeo Yeo Jung as the titular leads in what is being described as a fun bickering rom-com.

Oh how times flies and it did fly a little faster for the FTLY remake since its predecessor A New Leaf shaved two … Continue reading →
There’s cute, and there’s so sweet it gives you a toothache level cute. The three official posters for the upcoming MBC rom-com Fated to Love You fall into the latter category. I love them all! Such a great pick me up after a lackluster premiere to the rom-com Trot Lovers, reminding me that another potential rom-com crack is coming along … Continue reading →
I’m not going to complain that there is too much Choi Jin Hyuk these days but it sure does feel like the man is everywhere. Starting with last year’s major breakthrough in a supporting role in Gu Family Book, Choi Jin Hyuk has been working nonstop in dramas and movies. He was one of the better things in Heirs, had a leading … Continue reading →
The upcoming Korean remake of the popular TW-drama Fated to Love You is going to live and die by the chemistry of the leads. A lot of viewers already know the story from watching the original or hearing about it so the narrative won’t be hook enough to lure audience to keep watching.

Is the third time a charm for the I Need Romance franchise? I sure hope so and we’ll find out when I Need Romance 3 premieres next Monday on tvN. The cast attended a press conference today where I think leading lady Kim So Yeon‘s entire sartorial concept was “Go wow them!”. She showed up in a red off-the-shoulder Herve … Continue reading →
