Big names for the first two, but I'm more excited about the Park Bo-gum x Kim So-hyun one than Kim Soo-hyun x Kim Ji-won.
Also want to watch Pick Up Sun-jae and Run.

That poor cake indeed! 😨

QUEEN OF TEARS still looks interesting, but the title sure sounds like a lot of melo. 🤔

… here we go again with the high school uniforms. 🙄😂 What a stark contrast to the sexy villain persona Byun Wooseok played in STRONG GIRL. (Ps: the drama is called “Loverly Runner” on MDL. Timeslip romance & that title? Is the show stuck in 2023…? 🤔)

Four out the six sound like they will make the ‘I earned some beans of joy this year’ list, hopefully, there will more beans on that list than last year.

1) Queen of Tears : I'm waiting for it since they announced the main cast! I like the supporting cast too because they should be lead in their own dramas >_<

2) Good Boy : I didn't specially like Park Bo-gum and Kim So-hyun's last dramas. So I hope for the best!

4) We will get a little Tomorrow's reunion because Rowoon will make a cameo for our favourite styled grim reaper, Kim Hee-sun!

6) I love Kim Hye-Yoon and I'm excited to see her in a new drama. She has the habit to be paired with giants, it will be fun. I'm excited to watch Lee Seung-Hyub as musician in this drama, as leader of N.Flying he will be perfect for this role!

Queen of Tears is looking all warm and cozy, and definitely relaxed.
Kwak Dong-yeon🤭🤭🤭.

When I read 2's plot summary on Asianwiki yesterday, I immediately recalled this week's beanies recommendation and how similar it is, except the transition here is career wise.

The wedding cakes caused no trouble my dear Amazing Troubleshooters team , the erring partners did.

Our House is a one of a kind. How they subverted the trope of oil and water family relationships is what's piquing my interest the most.

January 21 be here, stat!

Looking forward to making clips of Pick Up Sunjae... Kim Hye Yoon will probably be walking on apple boxes again!

#1 Title Queen of tears - so I am not getting a drama without Kim Soo-hyun tearing up?
#2 - Solid cast and production team..I am expecting this drama to provide me sunshine , spice and everything nice.
#6 - That is some height difference... are we going to have repeat of Extraordinary you? If yes, I am happy beanie...

Park Bogum and Kim So Hyun in an action comedy is all I can see!

1. YESSSSSHHHH

2. I have never found PBY to have good or any chemistry with his FLs. I don't really get his appeal honestly. I think the only time I believed him in a romance was Reply 1988 and acting wise he is just fine to me. Maybe this will change my mind about him, because I like KSH.

3. I really want this to be GOOD!!

6. They keep putting poor KHY with MLs twice her size, lol.

No. 4. MBC’s OUR HOUSE. This is the first I have heard of this drama but what a cast of female actors. I loved Kim Hee-sun in MBC’s TOMORROW (2022) and I haven’t seen Lee Hye-young since her great performance as villain Judge Cha Moon-sook in tvN’s LAWLESS LAWYER (2018).
If @kurama you are working on getting a Rowoon cameo (and that would be great) I have to start working on getting LL alumna Yeom Hye-ran a cameo in this.
(And since it is a MBC production there is a chance that a legal US stream will be available.)

Queen of Tears- looking foword to this one. Will be interesting to see a couple making it work AFTER their happy ever after

Pick Up Sun-jae and Run - I have forgotten about this and I didn't know Kim Hye Yoon was the lead- both excellent suprises! Lets gooo

So many fun choices! I even had to get a new notebook with larger pages to keep track of everything I watch! Good sounding dramas and lots of snow--perfect for settling in with some hot tea and blankets for extended watching!

I just want to echo @tccolb here--what do kdrama promo teams have against beautifully decorated cakes? Just think how long it took to get that elaborate icing/fondant design, and then have Lee Ji-ah just quickly ruin it with her fist.

Why not have the FL ripping a fake bridal veil or something, or hammering a fake ring? Message just as effective, no messy hands, and no food tossed away in the interests of a promo poster. Apparently these concept designers never heard of my grandmother's saying when it came to food: "Waste not, want not!"

1. ❤ Kim Soo-hyun ❤ I would like to sit with him like that.

2. Park Bo-gum doesn't "action-comedy" sound like Flexi X Cop.

3. Yah!! Don't waste cake ... jebal!! 🎂

4. Why no reference to Chansung?

5. Already in watchlist.

6. Hmm ... wonder what @CecilieDK thinks of that.

1. Super excited for what will undeniably be a popular hit, but oh it stings to see Kwak Dong-yeon back in supporting roles. Can he please, for the love of the drama gods, be the lead in a decently-scripted romcom? It's all I ask for.

2. In dramaland, even elite athletes eventually (d)evolve to cops. It's an anticipated pair so I had hoped for better than yet another police (with its contractually required serial killers and all) drama.

3. What was the point of ruining that cake?? What do smashed cakes have to do with divorce lawyers??

4. More than the cast, what I find exciting about this is the synopsis says it has a daughter-in-law/mother-in-law team up to protect their family. I'm so here for this new trend away from the typical nagging, abusive MILs to ones who support their new daughters.

5. I'm happy to have Jo Jung-suk in a sageuk again, but will anything ever live up to the brilliant heights of Nokdu Flower?

6. Poor Kim Hye-yoon will once again have neck pains due to her costar. Is it weird that this teen/coming-of-age time-slip drama is my most anticipated of this entire list? Probably, but I just love KHY so much and want her to be in every project ever. I hope they choose a better English language title soon.

1. I’m so excited I could scream. I opted for a very high pitched squeal instead lol. Excited for the cast, the PD, the writer - basically everything. My expectations are probably way too high but at this point, I can’t help it!

2. Im honestly not the biggest PBG fan. I feel like he’s very overrated and his dramas are almost always not my cup of tea. But KSH is my fav and im happy for her to not be stuck with yet another rookie actor. It’s been a while since that’s happened (Ruler was prob the last and damn my expectations for that drama was stratospheric…)

Kim So-Hyun is back to doing romance! Yay...can't wait.

despite my unwarranted dislike with Park Bo Gum acting, im excited to know that JTBC’s Good Boy come from writer of Life on Mars and
PD of Beyond Evil. hopefully a good combo that will rock kdramaland.
