You have done well, and romantic guest house look promising. However I hope the youthful era of You have done well has a Reply 1988 style percentage of the drama air time rather than 50/50 split.

Aww, it's heartwarming to see Park Hae-joon go from "I Haven’t Done My Best Yet" to "You Have Done Well." That's something we all want to hear.

I always look forward to SeoIn-Guk's dramas, although they never seem to do well, but I'm a fan. I don't know, maybe it's his face or maybe it's his voice. Haven't seen any of Park So-Dam's dramas, although I find her charming, who knows, maybe I give this one a go. Go Yoon-Jung found a special place in my heart after Law School, so in general, I like the cast, hope the story be worth it.

1. I will watch to the bitter end, even if it is garbage because of my love of SIG, however I hope it is good because I am PSD fan as well.

2. IU. I know I am in the minority here but PBG doesn't do it for me and he doesn't ever have chemistry with his FLs, so I am not holding out hope for this pairing, but maybe I will be pleasantly surprised.

4.Romantic guest house seems interesting

5. Pandora looks like makjang personified, so why not.

6. Will definitely watch Call it love.

1. Dream casting if it happens, and Soompi and MDL are reporting that Kim Jae-wook also may have a main role and Lee Jae-wook, Choi Si-won, Jang Seung-jo, and Sung Hoon might have cameos as SIG's various reincarnations. Who knows if this is anything more than a PR agent's fantasy for now - but that's quite the fantasy!

3. Cute, but I still don't understand why ghosts need taxis.

Very true about the ghosts and taxis. That is why I didn't comment. I think it is simply a no for me.

I'm looking forward to everything except Pandora (no offense, Pandora). Seo In-guk fantasy? Sounds good to me. Period romance with IU and Park Bo-geom? Where do I watch please? Cute, ghosty love/shenanigans? Definitely. Romance sageuk insurance against Our Blooming Youth being bad? Always welcome. Angsty forbidden love? I won't be able to watch live anyway, but I'm excited to read what I'm sure will be wild weecaps.

Me too! My reaction scrolling through -

Seo In-Guk, Park So-dam, and now Go Yoon-jung! I find them all charming so I'll definitely check it out.

Waiting in happy anticipation for You Have Done Well.

Delivery Man could be cute, worth a look in.

Romantic Guest House - also happily anticipating

Pandora - Ummm, no, I'll pass and this poster does nothing to make me change my mind.

Call It Love - Disney+, bummer. I'll read the weepcaps.
