Good news!! Lee Min Ho has signed on his next drama and it’s called  He Who Wishes To Wear the Crown, Endure Its Weight: Heirs. Okay, that’s it…nothing more, right?! Anyways, everyone is calling it Heirs for convenience, so let me also take this moniker as it will be a bit difficult to use the longer version. The show will be a romantic comedy, written by Kim Eun Sook, known for her hugely popular, similar genre dramas like Secret Garden and A Gentleman’s Dignity. It is another thing that I haven’t seen either of her works, but from what I read, everybody either loves them (a lot!!) or hates them. Continue reading →

Well, to be more clear, it’s Special Affairs Team TEN, a crime procedural drama that garnered good reviews as well as ratings when it aired during 2011-2012. It is a story about a special crime unit called Ten that solves cases which have less than 10 percent chance of getting solved. I love such procedural, mystery-thriller shows, but as I cannot watch every drama out there and my list continues to gather dramas day by day, I have put a hold on going for any new entry in my plan-to-watch zone.

How many of you are confused with this coming season of drama premieres, as seriously there is a drama profusion in the next month of April. Wherever I see, I find stills or teasers or posters of forthcoming shows, and it’s so difficult to remember which one is gonna premiere when. But of course, there is a variety (well, sort of) for the viewers, but in a narrow way: there are sageuks (so many!!), rom-coms and thrillers. So I decided to make a list of upcoming shows so that it becomes easier to remember them. I excluded some of the shows like weekend ones and will make another enumeration for them in part 2.

Okay now, the title Birth Secret itself sounds so drama-ish for its extensive use throughout in dramaland, particularly in makjang shows. And the general dramas also happen to have a fondness towards the clandestine past stories, which usually form the latter part or provide the climax for our shows, after they complete their main story. So, when I first read about this latest entrant in the upcoming weekend drama galore, I found it really funny. Continue reading →

I’ve already stated the forthcoming dramas I’m most excited about. And the one about which I’m least excited…it’s the melodrama When A Man Loves. And I have many reasons for it. Firstly, the story. It sounds so typically melodramatic with an added feature of infidelity (in the name of true love..meh), which I find truly repulsive. It’s not like I haven’t seen such movies, but then here it’s a drama hero and I seriously can’t root for him in such a situation. Second reason is that I didn’t like Shin Se Kyung‘s one note acting and constant Continue reading →
