I'm a big fan of these Japanese - Korean mixed dramas. Remembering Friends, Virgin Snow, and Stars Echo from early 2000s. Surprisingly Lee Se Young and Kentaro Sakaguchi are also coming out with a drama as well!

I'm one of the few people who have probably watched this on MDL. Its probably because its hard to find and there are no offical subs or fansubs. Only AI subs exist.

Just gonna comment. But, it seems like the subber does not want to directly be associated with the title of the drama in a "public capacity" since it can lead to problems with original movie holder. (check their tweet). Might want to delete since they will delete that tweet soon anyways.

Yeah that was the sad thing.... Probably was one of the few competitors of Viki (and the only significant one a long time ago). No idea why WarnerBros bought it only to kill it off less than two years later. Asian content distribution and popularity has definetly become more profitable in the last 5 years or so considering investments made by Amazon, Disney +, and Netflix into providing more content as well as additional streaming services popping up.

Are you talking about the MDL rating or the Korean broadcast ratings?

Always a big fan of of these types of dramas. Friends (2002) between Won Bin and Kyoko Fukada was a cute drama.

11/27 9:45 PM KST so basically it’s normal time slot

Dang, looks like Episode 8 was delayed due to Fifa World Cup Match

Would need to buy on a Japanese site like Yahoo Auctions, Amazon JP, or Mercari JP

Nishino Nanase in a historical drama.... pretty excited to see her even if she is just a supporting role.

Wonder which actors will accept an offer to return.

Fun fact: They had some promo materials like T-shirt , bag, and photocard they used for promo for this movie. They were signed by Mio Imada..... I bought the T-shirt off one of the winners but it was so expensive.

Tbh I think the 90s and early 2000s had a lot of great J-dramas!

Pretty rare for Kdramas unless issues with broadcaster or some kind of controversy with cast. For this one in particular, this drama was involved with the now shuttered DramaFever. DramaFever was bought by WarnerBros and subsequently shut down. So likely the holdup was due to some kind of contract or no broadcaster to show the show anymore when it was first scheduled to be released. I think CDrama is mainly delayed due to censorship, controversy with actors. Always an unfortunate thing when dramas don't get released.... so much hard work and money gone to waste away.

This drama is about to become like the drama Mojito / Casting a Spell On You...... randomly dropped on a streaming platform one day....

It was filmed in 2017

It was filmed back in 2017.... was in limbo forever........

Movie has only been released in theaters so far. Blu-ray and dvd won’t be released until 12/6 everyone…..

All speculation at this point I guess. Maybe they'll make some original content?

I have to commend the people who added a bunch of the contestants into the the Credits here at MDL. That is not easy to do.....
