The K-drama world has been taken by the storm that is Netflix’s My Demon. The show is the perfect blend of old-school fantasy tropes and modern K-drama trends, making it exactly right for both old fans and new ones. Many called 2023 the year of K-drama redemption thanks to shows like My Demon, which are loved by all. I suppose it is true in some ways because many who had stopped watching Korean dramas started watching them again because of a sense of nostalgia and fun that the new shows brought with them. Netflix has in many ways hijacked the industry, and for the most part, they have a specific type of K-dramas that work on the platform; however, in 2023, we’ve seen them bring in more and more shows in the Netflix original category that venture into the typical K-drama atmosphere. My Demon is reminiscent of the old fantasy...

In evident, art-house fashion, the film follows Choi Hyeon, a S.Korean man, who works in China as a professor and is married there, in a melancholic trip in the streets of the city of Gyeongju, and down memory lane. In his trip, that was instigated by the death of an old friend, he meets another old friend, the deceased's wife, an ex-lover and gets to know the beautiful owner of a tea-house and her friends.
“Gyeongju” is available from Echelon Studios
Zhang Lu directs a very personal film, with the protagonist conversely mirroring his own situation, since Lu is Chinese, but now works in S. Korea. The dialogue is scarce and the pace quite slow, as Lu almost forces the audience to observe the surroundings, the beauties of the city, and the everyday life in it.
Through this trip, and the experiences Choi Hyeon has, he also makes some subtle comments,...

BTS's Jimin has dropped a number of solo songs throughout the years, but on April 24, he unveiled his first-ever original soundtrack (Ost). The star collaborated with former Wanna One member Ha Sung-woon to release "With You" as part of the soundtrack for the new Netflix K-drama "Our Blues." As fans know, Jimin and Sung-woon are good friends. They've hung out on a number of occasions and supported each other throughout their careers, making their collab all the more special.
Days before the track's release, a representative from Yam Yam Entertainment (the company behind the "Our Blues" soundtrack) teased, "Jimin's soft vocal tone and Ha's attractive, engaging tone are weaved together in this song and their harmony made it even more beautiful." After finally hearing "With You" for themselves, fans couldn't agree more. If you can't get enough of the song either,...

Ji-woon Kim’s “A Bittersweet Life” is one of those Korean gangster movies (Korea makes about a billion of these a year, give or take a couple of million) that really convinced me the Koreans were still making great movies that didn’t involve cute girls dying of unexplained medical maladies. Now it appears as if Hollywood is set to remake the film with the approval of Cj Entertainment, the movie’s original backers. In the South Korean original, Byung-hun Lee (soon to be seen in Hollywood flicks “I Come with the Rain” and “G.I. Joe”) plays a suave gangster who is marked for death by his own crew. He’s buried alive, but somehow survives and comes back to exact some bloody revenge on his old boss. Much bloodletting ensue. The film co-starred Min-a Shin, Yeong-cheol Kim, and Jeong-min Hwang, and was written and directed by Ji-woon Kim...
