I liked Lee Dong Gun a lot as the sensible husband in one of the underrated but really good rom-coms Sweet 18 which starred Han Ji Hye opposite him. That made me excited for his comeback project Mi Rae’s Choice (2013) but I ended up dropping it, which turned out to be a great decision as the show left everyone angry and frustrated after its run. It was also sad for the cast as the show received very low ratings. Hence, I’m happy to report that he is starring in his next drama and better that the network is tvN, which keeps on churning out one quality project after another. In fact, most of my favourites from last year belonged to the cable channel. Continue reading →

I’m really enjoying Mi Rae’s Choice (or Marry Him If You Dare). It’s cute and adorable with a lightning fast pace with dollops of humour to make a perfect feel good rom-com. The performances are great across the board with some nicely sketched characters. There is also a delightful exploration of the broadcast station as it is the set-up of our show, giving it a workplace drama vibe as well. Continue reading →

As we are moving towards the tail end of 2013, I was thinking about the striking features of the year and thus realised that this year saw an occasion as rare as the stars on a cloudy night and that was the comeback of many actors to dramaland. Every year there are one or two shows which give us the opportunity to see the elusive stars but 2013 was especially filled with returns to the small screen. Some get busy doing movies, some go for military enlistment and some take a break; whatever maybe the reason but viewers are always delighted to see their favorite actors for at least 16 episodes or 8 weeks straight.

Marry Him If You Dare (or Mi Rae’s Choice) is premiering in few hours. Its preceding drama Good Doctor received good ratings and that way, it has a good possibility to take the rating baton from it. Also, the competing shows have mediocre to low numbers, so that’s advantageous for it. The show has old formula of romantic comedy repackaged with the twist of time travel. It tells story of a Continue reading →
