When The Camellia Blooms is like a breath of fresh air. Firstly, it is set in a countryside rather than Seoul which forms the backdrop of maximum dramas. The show also has two lead protagonists with amusing personalities. The drama is airing on KBS as well as Netflix and is off to a breezy start. Continue reading

Hotel Del Luna has gained ratings as well as popularity since its premiere back in July. I started it but currently its status is on hold for me, leaning towards dropped category as my interest is very minimal for this fantasy show. I like the setting, acting, music, characters, IU‘s costumes. But somehow it lacks that magic that I expect from the writers, my favorite, the Hong Sisters. Or else, I’m unsuccessful in funding that hook which enables me to continue a drama. Or the Master’s Sun-esque episodic format is the downside. Maybe I will get back to it when in the right mood.

It is headlined by Song Seung Heon who plays a former politician who is desperately trying to go back to being elected and joining the National Assembly. One day, he meets an 18 year old girl Continue reading

I’m super happy with this upcoming drama! It’s like a dream pair, but which I never even thought about. What more, Kang Ha Neul (Misaeng) finally getting a main lead role! Yes, yes and yes. He will be romancing Gong Hyo Jin (who is returning to dramaland after 3 long years with her last drama being Jealousy Incarnate) in new KBS show When The Camellia Blooms. It’s a Continue reading
