Premiere Watch: Rookie Cops, All of Us Are Dead by missvictrix Puppies, incoming! This week we’ve got two premieres, both featuring their own youthful (and adorable) cast, and both original to streaming broadcasters. The two dramas might have puppies in common, but if the promos are any indication, there will be a marked difference between […]
Premiere Watch: Through the Darkness, Dr. Park’s Clinic
Premiere Watch: Through the Darkness, Dr. Park’s Clinic by missvictrix January is looking like a quiet month for premieres (before the February drama-tsunami hits). That being said, we’ve got two completely different shows hitting the airwaves this weekend: a probing thriller about Korea’s first criminal profiler, and a wacky comedy featuring some of the greats. […]
Premiere Watch: Ghost Doctor, Tracer

Premiere Watch: Moonshine, The One and Only, The Silent Sea
Premiere Watch: Moonshine, The One and Only, The Silent Sea by missvictrix We have a fun assortment of dramas awaiting us this week!

Premiere Watch: Bad and Crazy, Snowdrop, Bulgasal: Immortal Souls
Premiere Watch: Bad and Crazy, Snowdrop, Bulgasal: Immortal Souls by missvictrix It’s that time again! More dramas are making their debut this weekend, and they’re each exciting and thrilling in their own way. From crazy cop action to historical drama and immortal revenge, I’m not sure which drama to lunge for first. Bad and Crazy […]

Premiere Watch: Show Window: The Queen’s House by missvictrix Time slot: Monday & TuesdayBroadcaster: Channel AGenre: Melo, mysteryEpisode count: 16 Channel A’s next drama is here, and it seems to be following the vein of their usual (and shall we say, sensational) programming.

Premiere Watch: School 2021, One Ordinary Day
Premiere Watch: School 2021, One Ordinary Day by missvictrix Even after all the recent premieres, there are more dramas coming in for a landing this week! One premiere is the latest installment of a long-standing K-drama tradition, and the other is the exact opposite: the first drama production from a brand new streaming service. School […]
Premiere Watch: Hellbound
I just finished the first 3 episodes which are like Part 1 as the next and final 3 seem to be a gear switch with a new batch of characters. I could potentially finish all 6 in one go – but that’s not doing justice to this thought provoking drama. When seeing the trailer, it […]
Premiere Watch: Dr. Brain, Happiness
Premiere Watch: Dr. Brain, Happiness by missvictrix More dramas coming in hot! This week’s drops are quite interesting ones — we have the first-ever drama production from Apple TV+ (all eyes on how that goes), and an apocalyptic infectious disease-themed drama that feels way too close to life to be entertainment. But we’ll watch anyway. […]
Premiere Watch: Crime Puzzle, Inspector Koo, Chimera
Premiere Watch: Crime Puzzle, Inspector Koo, Chimera by missvictrix We might be getting too used to a drama smorgasbord every time we have a new round of premieres, because this week we only have one flavor to choose from: crime. Each drama brings something different to the table, but it’s still not the genre hodgepodge […]
