Playful Kiss makes a dismal premiere (ouch!)
OUCHHHHH. Even for those who don’t put much stock in drama ratings, this has to hurt: Playful Kiss premiered today with a painfully low rating, 3.5%. That’s even lower than the flop it replaced, Road No. 1, which ended on an already low 5.3%. Unsurprisingly, competitor KBS Baker King Kim Tak-gu held a distant lead... More »

Gumiho vs. Kiss: Vote!
As you know, an epic showdown is approaching, with My Girlfriend Is a Gumiho and Playful Kiss both airing on Wednesday-Thursday nights. Girlfriday and I have literally spent hours (HOURS!) trying to figure out how to handle recaps of both dramas (if Playful Kiss ends up being recap-worthy, that is), and both dramas have the... More »

Extended 15 min trailer for Playful Kiss
Just yesterday we had the new teaser for Playful Kiss, and now there’s a longer cut available (thanks to everyone who sent it to me!). I don’t actually think it’s an official trailer — it feels kind of rough — but it gives us an extended look at the drama. It seems like Boys Before... More »

New teaser for Playful Kiss
The first teaser for Playful Kiss was very short, though evocative (and cute!). This new one is a bit longer and gives us more of an idea of the opposites-attract dynamic between the two leads, Kim Hyun-joong and Jung So-min. Although at this point it’s more of opposites-bicker-in-denial-of-attraction, at least on his (perfect, polished) end,... More »

Kim Hyun-joong’s Playful Kiss family
Here we get our first look at a Playful Kiss family portrait, which depicts the parents and younger brother of Kim Hyun-joong‘s lead character. By all reports (I haven’t seen the original series myself) the family has a fair amount of screentime, in particular the mother character, played here by the wonderful Jung Hye-young. She’ll...

First teaser clip for Playful Kiss
First the official posters, now a trailer. This is the first video clip to be released for Playful Kiss, which is short but sets up the initial dynamic nicely in the wordless sequence. I love the nervous, fidgety anticipation of Jung So-min, who is downright adorable — I’m rooting for her already. I’m hoping beyond... More »

Posters are out for Playful Kiss
The Playful Kiss posters are out! I think Jung So-min is kinda doing all the narrative work here, but I remain hopeful that the romance between her and Kim Hyun-joong will be solid and convincing. This may be naive of me, but I’m placing an awful lot of trust in director Hwang In-roi, who was... More »

Playful Kiss casts newbie Yoon Seung-ah as best friend
It looks like Playful Kiss is looking to newbies for the supporting roles, which I’m a fan of, since it’s a high school drama and will benefit from some fresh faces. Relative newbie actress Yoon Seung-ah has been cast as the best friend, Min-ah, to Jung So-min‘s Ha-ni, and will be displaying a 4D (quirky,... More »

Lee Tae-sung and the boys in Playful Kiss
No guilty panties this time around, but there are some funky hairdos in these latest Playful Kiss promo photos. I know I’ve poked fun at Lee Tae-sung‘s coif before, but I’ll hand it to him: As long as he’s wearing it, at least he’s workin’ it. Lee plays Bong Jun-gu, a simple-hearted guy who is... More »
