hwle It’s funny that the last time I did a post on having a glimpse of upcoming dramas, it was in April 2014! I know! It’s that old and I didn’t do another similar post up till now. But as I was making my plans about forthcoming shows, I got a bit confused about everything as I was hearing casting news left and right and front and centre and thought of making a chart to make things clear about what’s in store for us in dramaland this month.

Descended From The Sun is one of the most high profile dramas of 2015. It is because the show is being penned by star writer Kim Eun Seok who has Secret Garden, A Gentleman’s Diginity and Heirs under her belt and if we go back a little, then she has also written Lovers In Prague, Lovers In Paris, City Hall and On Air. One thing is common in these shows — all were superhits and created popular trends among the viewers, you Continue reading

I never watched Let’s Eat and so it won’t come as a surprise that its second season on tvN leaves me indifferent. I think I can’t get excited for a show where main focus is food. Don’t get me wrong, I love eating but strangely I’m not attracted to fictional shows which are all about food. Anyway, the drama was well received and the second installment Let’s Eat 2 will also be about, well, food. Yoon Doo Joon is reprising his role but it’s a wonder that the drama will not have the original heroine (sadly for fans of the couple) Lee Soo Kyung. Instead, we have Seo Hyun Jin (The Three Musketeers) as the heroine this time. Continue reading
