And the Seon-deok juggernaut rolls on
Dream, Hometown of Legends I knew Queen Seon-deok was doing well, but it’s positively crushing the competition. I wouldn’t really use the word “juggernaut” for a drama under 40% ratings (20% is popular, 30% is a wild success, and 40% — well, a 40% in this drama climate is a phenomenon). While Seon-deok‘s 30% ratings... More »

Hometown of Legends adds to a horror-filled August
I have the feeling that the summer horror trend already has its winner in MBC’s drama Hon, but KBS’s Hometown of Legends is trying to catch up when it premieres today for its short (eight-episode) run this month. Here’s its newest poster, featuring new actress Lee Sae-na as a ghost. The two dramas take pretty... More »

Horror dramas Hon and Hometown of Legends
Lee Seo-jin of Hon Since horror is supposed to offer a chill in the hot summer months, we can see why there’s such a sudden burst of horror material these days. Two television dramas will soon add to the tally, giving us a Monday-thru-Thursday lineup of horror through August and September. MBC’s Hon (“Soul”) is... More »

KBS nominates (practically everyone) for acting awards
Like MBC before it, KBS has also released its list of year-end acting award nominees. And while Hong Gil Dong (above) wasn’t the most prominent drama featured among the contenders (that would have to be the daily drama Mom’s Dead Upset, which brought in a whopping four nominations just in the Daesang category), it’s the...

Hometown of Legend: Episode 8 (finale)
Advice from the tired and extremely footsore: if most of your campus goes straight up and down, wear comfy shoes. Also, do not fall behind on your readings. Ever. Well, here we are at the end of the road. I expected it to be more Saw and Grudge-like (I admit, all the eye-related CGI scare... More »

Hometown of Legends: Episode 7
I do apologize for any perceived delays, but unfortunately for me, recaps don’t write themselves (not that I haven’t tried to make them), and I need to sleep as well as study. I also work from the csubs, and this usually adds a day or two to the time between airing and recapping. Hope you... More »

Hometown of Legends: Episode 6
PSA of the day: Say no to drugs! (Or too much beer, for thou shalt regret it.) Alas, that frosh season has begun. As always, many thanks to Luv for the screencaps. SONG OF THE DAY Kim Gun-mo – “슬픈 휴식” (Sad rest) [ Download ] [Audio clip: view full post to listen] Tags: Hometown... More »

In which Jae Hee is the lord in question (going by Yoon Ki Joo), and Lee Young Eun stars as both of his loves (Yeo Rim and Chae Ok respectively). SONG OF THE DAY Sissel Kyrkjebø – “Lær Meg Å Kjenne.” You may recognize this Norwegian song from that pivotal scene in Hong Gil Dong‘s... More »

Hometown of Legends: Episode 4
Ooooookay. In between bouts of watching intense gymnastics and work, I have successfully recreated the panda look. By the way, the subs had an additional warning that wasn’t present for the other episodes, so I would guess this one is extra gory. People under 15 need not read ahead. (Note from the future: But this... More »

Hometown of Legends: Episode 3
Pictures credited to Luv, who is awesome. I have discovered that less sleep = easily scared Sevenses. Not sure how that works – but my point is, sleep well before you watch this series. Not that this episode was scary either, but I really really hate the dark. SONG OF THE DAY Biuret – “오늘밤은... More »
