News bites: June 14, 2023

1. I made the smart decision to drop Uncontrollably Fond pretty early on so I don’t have the baggage with this pairing as others do. I’ve warmed up considerably towards Suzy over the last couple of years and honestly, I’m just so, so happy Kim Woo-bin is back. And in a romcom too! The screenwriter being Kim Eun-sook, though, doesn’t exactly spark joy…

2. *Sigh* Relegated to second fiddle, AGAIN. There is no justice in dramaland. Park Jin-ju should be one of our most successful leading ladies, not be the token sassy friend of much newer, greener actors.

3. Hell of a cast for sure (Jo In-sung!!!), but the plot doesn’t interest me at all. I feel like superheroes wouldn’t translate well to the kdrama medium. And what it is with Disney+ snatching up all the A-listers for there uninspired projects?

4. Now THIS… this is an ensemble I’m here for. Not a single weak link in that lineup, I love them all. Happy pride month to me, indeed.

5. Greeeeeat, another new streaming platform. This is definitely not a field that’s already notorious for oversaturation and lagging numbers. I bet it’ll be extra tough to get (legal or otherwise) English subs for us international folks too. Just great.

6. Awww, they’re so cute! My interest for this drama has been steadily growing with every poster. Idk, I’m just really ready for Kim So-hyun’s return.
