Which roughly translates as "Eternal Night of Star River"
This is.. kinda different?
The synopsis on MDL looks machine translated, so I'll just say that from the trailer, Esther Yu's character finds herself stuck in the web novel that she's writing, as a character, and the whole thing works like a computer game, no less.
Her first mission, is to marry the male lead and consumm...

A mysterious epidemic that seems to result in zombies..? At least, that's what I'm getting from the trailer, and that kinda-sorta sounds like Happiness, which I unexpectedly loved.

If you like Lee Je Hoon &/or retro cop shows, this looks like it could be just your thing.

I had no idea that Escape of the Seven warranted a Season 2, but it's happening, and here's a sneak peek.
This is not my preferred style of makjang; it's a little too extreme for my taste.
But if it's yours, it's 16 eps and is coming to our screens sometime soon, on SBS.

Ok, this teaser looks pretty angsty.. I'm still intrigued though.

I have to confess that I'm pretty intrigued by this one.. There's something quite fascinating about the idea (ok, trope) of someone suddenly coming to realize that a loved one they'd always assumed was a regular person, is anything but a regular person.
I'll be keeping an eye on this one.
Show will be 8 eps, and will start airing on 17 Jan, on Disney+ and Hulu.

Well. We get a better look at the world of this drama, and I do think you guys are right, that this one will deal with the occult.
I'm very unlikely to watch this one, but if you like the idea of this, it's coming to your screen pretty soon.
Show will be 6 eps and is due to drop on Netflix on 19 Jan 2024.

So.. this seems like rather delicate timing, given that we're all still reeling from Lee Sun Gyun's recent passing, so I don't know if I'd be up to checking this out, despite it starring Ji Sung and Jeon Mi Do, whom I both really really like.

I'd had no intention of checking out Perfect Marriage Revenge when the promos came out, because it looked like a typical B-grade makjang, and that's just not my usual cup of tea.
However, I do like a well-done makjang from time to time, coz they can be such juicy, gleeful fun.
