After featuring in Vincenzo and A Time Called You, Jeon Yeo-Been has returned to K-dramas with a melancholy romantic series, Our Movie, alongside Namkoong Min. On the other hand, the drama’s male lead, Namkoong Min, joined the show after My Dearest, which came out in 2023.

However, as the series has entered the second half of its run, the Sbs drama saw a slight rise in its viewership ratings. As per the viewers, the storyline didn’t connect to the audience, and the chemistry wasn’t hitting the right chords, but the latest rise in the ratings proves that viewers have started to like the series.

The upcoming re-recorded version of Taylor Swift's debut album, Taylor Swift (Taylor's Version), has the chance to remedy what has certainly become the greatest disappointment of The Eras Tour. When it comes to this highly renowned and historical world tour, "disappointment" is a word that's hard to associate it with. From smashing records to creating cultural moments and movements, The Eras Tour is something that's gone far beyond Swift herself, and has proven just how much of a juggernaut she is in terms of talent, influence, innovation, and more.

Despite this, there is definitely one major stumble this tour has taken that hasn't been remedied: the lack of appreciation for her debut album. As a tour that covers every era of Swift's discography, it feels wrong to skip over the very first era she had, but it's never had its own section. In fact, the only time Swift plays...

Back in 2022, Netflix struck gold with yet more real-life stories of human misery in "Worst Roommate Ever." But this was no regular true crime docuseries. Compiling several tales of woe involving people and their incomprehensibly unhinged roomies, this show came produced by horror standard bearer Blumhouse and was a big enough hit to spawn a second season, which arrived in June 2024. This follow-up season came complete with episode titles that shrewdly evoked the spirit of gossip mag headlines, such as "My Bff Tried to Kill Me," "Housemate from Hell," and "The Lethal Landlord" — ensuring Netflixers binged themselves into oblivion for a second time.

Now, the streamer is at it again, with a spin-off series entitled "Worst Ex Ever," which, astoundingly, is not about my last girlfriend. No, as you might have guessed, this is yet another compilation of unbelievable tales of the unhinged, this time on the theme of exes.

Chemistry between leads is vital for a successful K-drama romance, along with a strong plot to keep the audience engaged. Adding elements like mysteries, crime, or the fantastical makes a love story more exciting and creates compelling characters. Well-developed characters outside of the romance enhance the depth of a couple's relationship in a K-drama series.

Romantic couples are a vital part of many television shows, and K-Drama series often have couples with the best onscreen chemistry. No matter what genre a K-drama falls under, there is almost always a central romantic couple who must overcome adversity and differences to be together. However, these couples are only compelling if the actors have enough chemistry to make their attraction believable, leaving the audience breathless. A K-drama will rarely find success if the lead couple isn’t a good match.

Implementing mysteries, fantastical elements, and even crime gives the protagonists something to investigate or accomplish together.

If you thought our collective true crime fascination would have wound down at some point over the past few years, you've probably been pretty surprised at just how enduring our appetite for this stuff really is. We might only be a month and a half into 2024, but this year has already proven the true crime genre continues to captivate audiences worldwide, especially when Netflix is the purveyor.

Earlier this year, there was the "sickening" documentary "Hell Camp: Teen Nightmare," which chronicled the suffering of dozens of teenagers who were kidnapped and taken to a "wilderness therapy camp" which was basically an excuse to abuse them over the course of several months — and all with their parents' blessing. Lovely stuff. After that little appetizer, we all apparently became fascinated with Netflix's "American Nightmare," which told the story of a woman who was blamed for her own kidnapping. Now, the streamer has...
