The world may seem incredibly imbalanced right now but one thing's for sure; we'll never run out of K-dramas to distract us from our real-life troubles. Currently, there are two shows that have viewers buzzing with anticipation and that's It's Okay to Not Be Okay and Backstreet Rookie.
Kim Soo Hyun and Seo Ye Ji's on-screen romance in It's Okay To Not Be Okay keeps the ratings steady. The tvN drama marks Kim Soo Hyun's first full-length role following the actor's military training.
Korean dramas have always been extremely popular and in the recent few years, the international love for these shows has multiplied into millions more. The best part about these K-dramas is that they don't limit themselves to one particular genre and rather focus on the complex storylines that cover different facets of human emotions.
Backstreet Rookie is facing its share of controversies. The show began on the wrong foot, inviting numerous complaints.
Backstreet Rookie has been under controversy from the time it replaced The King: Eternal Monarch, last month. Many viewers have complained about the sexual nature of the storyline, especially Jung Saet-byul (Kim Yoo-jung) and Han Dal-shik's (Um Moon-suk) characters.
Ji Chang-wook, who became an instant fan-favourite with his lead act in popular shows like Healer and Suspicious Partner, continues to leave us mesmerised with his recent outing, Backstreet Rookie. Also starring Kim Yoo-jung, Backstreet Rookie traces the love story between a convenience store manager Choi Dae-hyun and his part-time employee, Jung Saet-byul.
As fans prepare to watch the fifth episode of It’s Okay To Not Be Okay, the makers have found themselves mired with a second controversy. Earlier this week, we reported that the show made the news for its bold content.
There are several on-screen K-drama couples who have given us relationship goals. However, this year alone, there have been three couples who have caught our attention and left viewers gushing.
There might be 6000 complaints against Backstreet Rookie but avid fans of Ji Chang-wook and Kim Yoo-jung are showing their support towards the new SBS drama. As a result, the Korean show has been recording an increased rating in South Korea.
The night is filled with all kinds of demons and not necessarily the ones creeping underneath the bed. The third episode of It's Okay To Not Be Okay rightly brought one such inner demon to perspective on Saturday.
Ji Chang Wook and Kim Yoo starrer SBS drama Backstreet Rookie aired its third episode and received love from the viewers. After the premiere of its first two episodes earlier this month, the series found itself in the middle controversy and many K-drama fans demanded the series be cancelled.
It seems like Backstreet Rookie's problems are not going to die down anytime soon. The SBS drama, which filled in the slot previously held by Lee Min Ho's The King: Eternal Monarch, stars Ji Chang Wook and Kim Yoo Jung in the lead.
It is not new to see South Korean stars come forward to support their fellow actors and their shows and movies. But every time it happens, it makes our hearts flutter.
Kim Soo Hyun has returned to the small screen for the first time since he wrapped his military training with It's Okay To Not Be Okay. The actor plays Moon Kang Tae in the Korean drama.
For K-drama enthusiasts, Crash Landing on You almost feels like home. The 2020 drama managed to win millions of hearts for its star-crossed lovers' storyline which centered on Yoon Se-ri (Son Ye-jin), a South Korean heiress who gets swept across to North Korea into the strong hands of Ri Jeong-hyeok (Hyun Bin), a North Korean captain in the Korean People's Army.
Over the weekend, two new Korean drama series began airing in South Korea. One saw the return of Kim Soo Hyun to the small screen following his military training with It's Okay To Not Be Okay and the other was Backstreet Rookie.
One of the most exciting K-dramas which is airing currently has to be It's Okay to Not Be Okay, which stars Kim Soo-hyun, Seo Ye-ji, Oh Jung-se and Park Kyu-young. For the unversed, the drama looks into the weirdly entertaining love story between Moon Kang-tae (Soo-hyun), a caretaker who works at a psychiatry ward and Go Moon-young (Ye-ji), an acclaimed children's book author who suffers from antisocial personality disorder as the two broken souls find some solace in each other.
Trust me when I say this: It is hard to be a Korean drama fan. No, no, not because I ample options of series to watch from.
Parasite might have won the Oscars for Best Picture this year but South Koreans have clearly not turned a blind eye towards Joaquin Phoenix's Joker. This weekend, Korean drama lovers were presented with a new show called It's Okay To Not Be Okay.
