Reporter Tae Yu-na and Ten Asia will properly cover all aspects of the drama based on what she heard and saw on the spot. We will be the eyes and ears of readers in an era where dramas are flooding in on numerous channels.
While the dramas 'A Scandal' and 'Agency' starring Jeon Do-yeon and Lee Bo-young are continuing their upward trend in the second half and are running on a box office success, the lineup of sequels and new works is also strong. In particular, works by star artists such as Kim Soon-ok and Kim Eun-sook have taken over the baton, raising expectations even further.
Currently, weekend mini-series dramas such as 'One-shot Scandal', 'Agency', 'Model Taxi 2', and 'Red Balloon' are fiercely competing for viewership ratings. In particular, 'Ilta Scandal' and 'Agency' started at 4% and rose to surpass 10%, and 'Model Taxi 2' continued the popularity of the previous season and reached 12% in just one episode. ‘Red Balloon’ also has a solid fan base at around 8%.
In a situation where there is no compromise, viewers are left happily wondering what to watch. 'Agency' and 'Ilta Scandal' are coming to an end, causing disappointment.
However, the sequel is also not easy. After 'Ilta Scandal' ends, 'Pandora: A Fabricated Paradise' (hereinafter referred to as 'Pandora'), in which writer Kim Soon-ok, who wrote 'Penthouse', 'The Last Empress', and 'Temptation of a Wife', participated as a creator, will be unveiled. .
'Pandora' is a revenge story about a woman who lives a life that everyone envies, recovering her lost memories of the past and punishing the forces that manipulated her fate. Above all, following the 'Penthouse' series, Lee Ji-ah has been selected as the main character, drawing attention.
Following the previous work, ‘Pandora’ will show another ‘Lee Ji-ah’s revenge story’. Lee Ji-ah plays a character who was a perfect wife and mother living a happy life, but as the fragments of her lost memories come together, cracks appear in her life. Above all, expectations are high as it is predicted that the actor will show intense action scenes where he will endure all kinds of threats for the people he loves.
Also, on March 10th, Part 2 of the long-awaited Netflix series ‘The Glory’ will be released. As 'The Glory' gained explosive popularity upon the release of Part 1 on December 20, 2022, expectations for Part 2 are sky-high.
In particular, the trailer, character poster, and still cuts that were released previously have attracted a variety of speculations. Song Hye-kyo shedding tears, Lee Do-hyun holding a syringe, and Kim Hee-ra being arrested by the police are all awaiting the release of Part 2 due to the unpredictable developments.
Above all, the biggest point to watch is how the revenge drama that risks the life of school violence victim Moon Dong-eun (played by Song Hye-kyo) will end, and as writer Kim Eun-sook says, "when and by whom the perpetrators will be punished." Attention is being paid to whether the ending will unfold without disappointment, as director Ahn Gil-ho said, who was confident that all the pieces would be recovered.
In addition, as the follow-up to 'Agency', 'Sacred, Divorced' starring Cho Seung-woo and Han Hye-jin is also scheduled to be broadcast for the first time, so competition for weekend dramas is expected to be fierce in March as well, and viewers are expected to have another fun problem to worry about.
