Poster shoot photos from tvN’s upcoming Nine
It isn’t very much, but at least we get a glimpse into the tvN time-traveling drama Nine: Nine Time Travels (or, to avoid redundancy, just Nine), which stars Lee Jin-wook as a quantum-leaping news anchor who jumps back twenty years and is out to solve a crime. Unlike Queen In-hyun’s Man (which is the producing... More »

Dating tips aplenty in tvN’s sorta-drama Play Guide
Huh. I got all excited at this news of tvN (yay!) casting a new project (yay!), especially since it features a Ramyun Flower Boy as its lead (yay Park Min-woo!)… and then read the article and got confusappointed by this so-called Play Guide. It’s a new scripted series all set to debut tomorrow night, and... More »

Poster and stills for revenge drama Thorn Flower
Daily dramas aren’t my cup o’ tea, but here’s one way to make them more engrossing: Make it dark and vengeful, with lots of blackness and blood-red accents to evoke a vaguely horror-like thrill. That’s what we’ve got here with Thorn Flower, the upcoming daily offering from cable up-and-comer JTBC, which released its main poster... More »

Casting finalizes on Nine, the drama not titled Court Lady
Whoops, so Court Lady—that follow-up cable drama being produced by the team who put out last year’s addictive romance-fantasy Queen In-hyun’s Man—turns out not to be Court Lady after all, but a different title entirely: Nine: Nine Time Travels.

JTBC’s medical-epidemic drama End of the World
A Wife’s Credentials was one of JTBC’s big successes last year (although the station had a pretty great first year all around, with offerings like Padam Padam, Childless Good Fortune, Dowager Queen Insoo, and Can We Marry), and the cable station is hoping lightning strikes twice with the return of its director, PD Ahn Pan-seok,...

Scriptwriter Kim Soo-hyun is continuing her hot streak with Childless Good Fortune, the weekend family drama on JTBC that’s currently two-thirds of the way through its run (its last broadcast...

Childless Good Fortune becomes highest rated cable drama
The game, she is a-changin’. Another cable drama has claimed the top ratings title, snatching the distinction away from Answer Me 1997 mere months after that drama hit it big with a finale of 6.03%. Now it’s the Kim Soo-hyun-written weekend family drama on JTBC, Childless Good Fortune (or Childless Comfort), which has edged out... More »

JTBC branches out into the daily drama market
Y’know, of all the newly launched cable stations, I think JTBC is the one who got it right (or most right, at least). Even putting aside the quality of their programming (with shows like Padam Padam, A Wife’s Credentials, Childless Good Fortune, and Can We Marry), they’ve taken a gradual approach, starting small and expanding...

KBS tries to recreate Answer Me’s success in new variety drama
I know what y’all are thinking: What the heck is a “variety drama”? To be honest I’m not sure I understand it either, but that could be because it’s one of those terms people started using ’cause it sounded good, not because it made sense. And dramaland sure understands that concept, doesn’t it? Thanks to... More »
