[Drama] Our Slightly Risque Relationship

조금 야한 우리 연애 stars "The Voice" Lee Seongyun (Pasta, 1st Shop of Coffee Prince) as a prickly broadcast PD. He enters a love-hate relationship with Hwang Wooseulhye (why does she have such a long name?) who plays a new reporter at his company.

It looks really cute and witty by the description of Lady Javabeans. Read here. Regardless of a good script and director, since it has 이선균, I was gonna watch it anyway. He's such a great actor...and very handsome ㄲㄲㄲㄲㄲ

I hope someone subs it. KBS airs this installment of Drama Special this weekend!

[Drama] Baker King, Kim Takgoo

KBS's newest drama Baker King, Kim Takgoo for the Wednesday-Thursday timeslot will premiere next week on the 9th.  It'll be 36 episodes of human/family drama and perhaps...mostly likely romance.  DramaWiki's summary:

Kim Tak Goo (played by Yoon Shi Yoon) is the eldest son of Goo In Jong, the president of Samhwa Enterprise, a legend in the baking industry. Although he is an extremely talented baker and seemed destined to succeed his father as president, Goo In Jong's family plotted to rob him of his inheritance because he was born to In Jong's mistress. Tak Goo's determination to become number one in the baking industry drives him to rebuild his career from scratch despite the many trials he faces.

Eugene from S.E.S. will also join the cast!  Yay, I love her!  Read more about the characters over at DramaBeans.

Since my career backup plan is to own my own bakery, I am really excited to watch and learn a little about the bakery business from this Baker King.  The whole proving-thyself plotline has always been very relatable and heartwarming, so I really can't let myself miss out on this!

If the popularity of Hana Yori Dango/Kkotboda Namja (Boys Over Flowers) is a sign of things to come, this remake called Jangnan Seureon Kiss (장난스런 Kiss, Playful Kiss) is gonna be HUGELY popular.  I'm excited for what Hwang is gonna do for it because honestly, I only got through episode 20ish in ISWAK and I couldn't even finish the 7th episode of BOF.

Head over to DramaBeans to follow the developments.
