Esther Yu's Love Game in Eastern Fantasy domestically beats Zhao Lu Si's The Story of Pearl Girl
Okay, so maybe I’m a little biased because ‘ The Innocent Man' has been one of my all-time favourite Korean dramas and the two main actors are in this list. I'm just too excited for these three dramas. The second I heard Song Joong Ki was discharged from his mandatory military service, I’ve been dying to see what his next project will be. Now I’m just dying to see it streamed! Which leads me to my first drama I just can't wait for.
1. Descendants of the Sun
Maybe it’s because i'm totally into military-ish dramas or i'm totally into Song Joong Ki, all I know is that February 24th can’t get here fast enough. I am just too too too excited for this one. Here’s the run down on this: Special units' Captain Yoo Shi-Jin ( Song Joong Ki) meets Doctor Kang Mo-yeon (Song Hye Kyo) in the war-torn country of Uruk, where they fall in love in the mists of disaster and disease. Uhm, I think this one’s gonna’ make me cry a bit…. Just a bit. The cast alone makes me beyond pumped for this Korean warring melodrama. This drama had me at Song Joong Ki. Then I watched the trailer. It had me in goosebumps and left me with a fan-girl squeal!
Keeping up with the military theme is number 2 on this list. Now, I’ve read a lot of manga in my day, which is what lead me to my drama addiction in the first place, but not any manhwas. With so many dramas coming from Manhwa, I feel like I’m missing out. Number 2 on my list, is based off on such Manhwa.
2. Goodbye Mr. Black
I love some good old fashioned revenge stories… (Refers back to first paragraph about ‘ Innocent Man'). This drama is set to release in March 2016. It sounds like it’ll be right up my alley and maybe yours too! Lee Jin Wook and Moon Chae Won star in this drama about a Navy SEAL member Cha Ji Won (played by Lee Jin Wook) who is discharged from military service and deemed a traitor, then is exiled after being set up by his bestie. He comes back seeking revenge after assuming a new identity. It also stars Song Jae Rim and Daniel Henney… who are mouth-wateringly sexy. I’m really excited and totally ready to drool over this cast! I’m desperate to see a trailer, so if you find one please share with me!
Last, but not least is number 3. This one I know the least about, which may be for the best, I love surprises. But the cast and plot alone were enough to get my heart pumping with anticipation.
3. Come Back, Ajusshi
Rain, Oh Yeon Seo, Lee Min Jung, Lee Ha Nui, and Kim Soo Ro. Now the story is a good old classic Korean Drama favorite body swap, mixed with comedy and romance. The plot is based off of a Japanese novel "Mr. Tsubakiyama's Seven Days”. When an office worker dies from overworking, he gets reincarnated as a good looking successful younger man. This reminds me of a cross between 49 days and Oh My Ghost. The trailer gave me a good chuckle. So I’m pretty excited and unsure of what to expect.
Bonus: Uncontrollably Fond
Staring Kim Woo Bin and Suzy. Ill-fated first love gets reunited later in life. This is scheduled to be released in June 2016. I think once I see a trailer for this one, I’ll get excited. Let me know what you think in the comments!
