MBC is beginning the new year of its Monday-Tuesday slot with a sageuk and it’s titled Rebel: Thief Who Stole the People. The previous drama to occupy this timeline was low rated Night Light (which I’m planning to check out) — not its fault as it was against rating winner Romantic Teacher Doctor Kim.

Anyway, the show has been highly buzzed drama since its announcement. Lee Young Ae last Continue reading →

Introverted Boss just premiered and now another workplace drama is about to start in a few days — Chief Kim. But this one is more inclined towards being a comedy than a rom-com. Nam Goong Min plays the titular Chief Kim who is a skilled accountant but works for gangsters. As a result of some events, he ends up joining a company called TQ Continue reading →
