Abyss ... First Look at a New Korean Drama

-



Abyss, The name alone give you a sci-fi feeling, a different feeling from the story. Netflix aired the first couple of episodes of this series just recently and as an avid follower of Kdramas, I had to watch it. The series starts with the death of the main character. Yes, you read that correctly!. The main character dies suddenly without any explanation in the drama and then he is revived.

 He is revived as a handsome guy who girls fall in love with all the time.  The main actor is a handsome guy, however, the main character isn't? confused ... same here. Park bo young also appears in a similar form, however, in her case, the main character turns into park bo young who is in fact not pretty, from the main character's point of view of course!

Although the drama starts with a death, the fact that the death scene with all its gore turned into something hilarious just seconds later explains exactly what type of drama this is. I believe it will be a unique drama that won't stick to the traditional well-known and expected results of the general mystery context. If anything, the appearance of Seo In-Guk in the first episode is amongst the top un-expected surprises for me. It was nice to see him after so long.

 So far, the drama has more than just one unexpected event. It discusses what it is like to be revived ... however, with a different face. It also discusses a mysterious killer that is hard to understand and so far has no reason to kill. The guy acting as the villian is also a unique actor, he is quite an actor, I remember clearly falling in love with his acting as a father in the sons and as a chef in Jealousy Incarnate. He is different that is for sure. Despite the fact that this drama is new, I believe it will be quite the attention-grabber this season.

BeetBits: Move To Heaven

 Probably the fastest binge ever in my own history of binge-watching. Move To Heaven is a short 10 episode drama produced by Netflix, especially for Kdrama lovers. It explores life and death through the story of the workers at Move To Heaven trauma cleaning agency. From Lee Je Hoon to the newly discovered Tang Joon-Sang, the cast for this drama is more than top-notch.  Trauma Cleaning  Ever heard of trauma cleaning? Personally, I have never heard nor even thought about them. It is weird, they say, "away from the eyes, away from the mind." It is totally true in this case. I have even written about unconventional careers before for a job; surprisingly, this job was not even mentioned anywhere. It is like the whole industry of crime scene cleaning is not exactly recognized by people. After reading a few articles about a trauma cleaner's job, it is a job that requires handling chemical materials that remove the worst type of contamination you can think of. Certainly, a j...

Actor Scope: Choi Tae Joon

Tae Joon is one of the actors I believe need more attention from the public. He is not as famous as other actors internationally despite being a great actor with a good resume. He started his career as a child actor. However, he stopped for a bit during puberty and returned as a handsome guy through Padam Padam (2011). He is also a full-round entertainer. I always look around searching for more content for this guy which is why I think this article will be the most prolonged Actor Scope ever for me.  Variety Shows  I can’t mention this guy without mentioning his appearances on Korean variety shows. I got to know him as the  Choi Tae Joon of Hello Counselor  at first so I will start from it.  Hello Counselor  (2010) Tae Joon is probably the only actor to join the cast of this famous Korean variety show. It is a show that receives citizens concerns and tries to solve them through discussions. He first appeared as a regular ...

Good Morning Call Cast Taken from a famous manga, "Good Morning Call" is a Netflix Original Japanese drama  starring  Haruka Fukuhara,  Shun'ya Shiraishi,  Dôri Sakurada  and produced by Mayuko Okamoto and Akimitsu Sasaki. The drama started airing on 2016 and currently has two full seasons following the main couple throughout both high school and university. Good Morning Call manga was written by Yue Takasuka and sold more than 5-million copies. Although the manga itself is popular, as a person who never read the manga before, my review will only consist of my opinion on the drama alone, without any comparisons to the manga. On IMDB, the rate for this drama is 7.9, which is extremely high if you count the genre of the drama. Typical rom-com dramas are rarely actually given good rating cuz of the repetitive storyline and the level of acting. Personally, I have stayed away from a lot of the famous live adaptations of mangas that I love, because of h...
