What makes this drama qualify as Tentpole on their 2026 lineup?
If i had to guess, probably that S1 and S2 did very well for them and they expect that the third season will stay the course and continue its previous success into this season since it's pretty popular
Let’s hope bloodhounds gets the may date or even earlier in April! Cool to see that it’s been at least 6 months…
Will be interesting to see if they get the May date b/c If Wishes Could Kill, Teach You a Lesson, and Notes from the Last Row along with The WONDERfools and this are also scheduled for Q2. And by the looks of it we are getting two for sure in April and another two in June for them to fit those five into Q2
It was announced a while ago that Boyfriend on Demand was going to be the last drama for their Q1 so it looks like they will go: Apr 3 -> Apr 24 -> May 15 -> June 5 -> June 26
Oh wow i didn't even notice it was going to take that long, um i'd assume it could be the that the lineup for KBS this year is pretty barebones and outside of My Beloved Thief this is the only other first half drama
According to Kim So Hyun's agency, PEACHY, she has been offered the lead role of Ji Eun Seol in "White Scandal" and is currently reviewing it. The production schedule has not yet been finalized, and casting is reportedly underway.
Nam Ji Hyun on not appearing in Good Partner 2: "I can't be with 'Good Partner 2' due to schedule problems, but I'm not worried because Na Ra senior is firmly guarding it."
“Since me joining was never confirmed, the term ‘departure’ is inaccurate. When the news of S2 broke following the end of S1, I think people naturally assumed I would be joining because my poster was featured alongside Jang Nara sunbae. It seems a misunderstanding arose because the word 'departure' was used in the headlines, despite what was actually in the content.”
“I was flustered when people around me sent me congratulatory messages, thinking, ‘What should I do when nothing is confirmed?'. I’m personally curious to see what stories will be told in Season 2. After all, isn't Jang Nara sunbae the pillar of Good Partner? I'm personally curious about what kind of story Season 2 will contain. Isn't Jang Nara, the pillar of 'Good Partner,' going to be there? Since it's an episodic drama with great scalability, I think I could be the main character in an episode whenever needed."
Song Kang reportedly casted as the the male lead, Dan I Hyeok. Dan I Hyeok is the illegitimate son of NB Group and one of South Korea's most successful actors and top stars. To fulfill his mother's dying wish and avoid being pushed out of the line of succession, Dan I Hyeok will enter into a contractual relationship with Ji Eun Seol, a former child actor.
Kim Ga-eun, who wrote "Call It Love" is in charge of writing the drama. Kim Chul-gyu, a trustworthy director known for his meticulous directing in dramas like "Mother" and "Flower of Evil," will direct. They are currently actively casting and will begin filming in the second half of the year after Song Kang wraps up filming for "Four Hands."
in the document attached, there is also a mention of reawakened man with a 2026 date on page 25, is that for one…
For that i think it is continued work on the webtoon rather than a live-action series development. For now at least, what they have under production is just this and Study Group S2 it looks like
