I wonder if the follow-up drama to KBS rating juggernaut Descendants Of The Sun is garnering much interest. It is Master: God of Noodles and at first I thought it was about some chef and his culinary skills. But the show is actually a revenge tale where Chun Jung Myung (Heart To Heart) plays a man who loses everything and then Continue reading

*Happy dance* Well, I wish this dance was performed with all my heart and soul as what could be better than Gong Yoo finally making a drama comeback? My only issue is that he will be doing a drama penned by top writer Kim Eun Sook. I have enjoyed the comedy of Secret Garden but it never mesmerised me. We can all agree that Heirs was not a good drama (although I did like it while it aired…for solely other reasons than Continue reading

I’m really excited for new SBS Wednesday-Thursday drama Entertainer. It seems to have just the right amount of fun, feel-goodness, exuberance and an underdog story to click all the right buttons.

Answer Me franchise is known for two things: first — being realistic and down to earth, bringing a sense of nostalgia, being an emotional roller coaster and having awesome moments with so much heart that you can’t help but love the characters and those moments. The second is the infamous mystery about who is going to end up with the heroine. So the enjoyment and appreciation of this show depends on your preference. If you are annoyed by this mystery, and don’t want to give Answer Me 1988 a chance, it’s going to be a great loss as the show is brilliant. Yes, it has that husband-mystery game but the main focus is family and friendship. And of course, the moments! Continue reading
