The pair of Lee Sun Kyun and IU seems rather odd but it forms the main lead couple of new tvN drama My Ajusshi. The show is premiering tomorrow in the Wednesday-Thursday slot with a strong behind-the-camera team — it is directed by the PD of amazing dramas like Signal, Misaeng, Sungkyunwan Scandal, to name a few and penned by the writer of Oh Hae Young Again and I Live in Cheongdamdong. The names have surely set the bar high for expectations. My Ajusshi looks similarly moody, indie-like in its treatment and is a story of healing. So I’m not sure if there will be a romantic angle between the two leads.

Remember what I said about not being a sageuk lover? Well, now I will be watching not one but two sageuks for coming months as after getting totally entertained by last week’s premiered drama Moonlight Drawn By Clouds, I’m looking forward to this week’s premiere show — Moon Lovers: Scarlet Heart: Goryeo. The latter is surely a star-studded drama as we have lots and lots of actors performing the K-version of a popular Chinese novel and drama. And that is probably the main reason I’m excited about the show. It is basically a romance story with some garnishing of fantasy elements. Continue reading →

I’ve read a lot about the popularity of period Chinese novel and drama based on it — Bu Bu Jing Xin — and so when I heard that Korea is remaking it into a drama, I was not clueless about the project (as I’m for many other remakes). Weeks and weeks of casting and speculations followed and now we finally have a confirmed cast and a title that went from Moon Lovers to settling on Bobogyungshim: Ryeo. Well, that will be as difficult Continue reading →

Producers provides buckets of entertainment, humour and a fun time with an excellent cast and camaraderie. Don’t let the episode length of more than 1 hour concern you for picking up this show, because for me, the episodes never seemed long and more than anything, it provided me an enjoyable ride from start to finish.
