I have liked Lee Je Hoon and Esom in their previous dramas, Signal and Because This Life Is Our First respectively, hence I’m excited to see them together in upcoming SBS drama Deluxe Taxi. Based on a webtoon, the show is written by the writer of movies Codename: Jackal (2012) and Fabricated City (2017).

The King: Eternal Monarch is a classic case where the combination of hottest stars, magnificent sets, production quality, intriguing premise and top writer doesn’t result in a satisfying ride. One of the most anticipated dramas of the year, it fails big time in terms of writing and execution. Of course, there are some good bits and pieces but that doesn’t outweigh the numerous shortcomings.

Looks like it will soon match its predecessor as the original installment crossed 20% mark. Continue reading
