'In Time With You' Korean Remake

Good news for those of you who are fans of the 2011 Taiwanese drama 'In Time With You', as it will be getting a Korean remake!

The Korean remake is said to air mid-winter 2015 with Min Hyo Jung as the writer for the drama, whose past works include the popular Hallyu drama, Full House.

Plot:
On her 30th birthday, Cheng You Qing received an email on "the symptoms of premature aging" from Li Da Ren, her best friend of 14 years. She made a bet with Li to see who will get married first before they turn 35. As she looked around for a potential husband, she discovered that she was surrounded by unacceptable candidates, like gay assistant or cheating ex-boyfriend. The only man who could love her despite all her flaws is her best friend. The only problem was that they both swore that they were not or will ever be romantically attracted to each other. (Drama Wiki)

Dramas to Watch

There are many great dramas that are airing this season, some of which I mentioned in earlier posts.
This is a short list of some of the dramas I still have yet to watch but really want to.

The drama I most want to watch is:
Mr. Baek (aka. Mr. Back)


Plot:
Mr. Baek is a successful hotelier who's more interested in hoarding his money than in enjoying his golden years. But in a strange turn of events, this classic scrooge gets a second chance at life when he wakes up as a younger version of himself (Shin Ha Kyun). With no way to prove his identity, Mr. Baek must enter his own company as a rookie and is forced to work his way up once again. With precious little time, Mr. Baek is given the opportunity to take stock of his life — and to give love a chance.
Starring:
Shin Ha-Kyun, Jang Nara, and MBLAQ's Lee Joon

Love Cells (although the plot sounds ridiculous)


Plot:
Dae Choong is unlucky in love until he meets a magical cat named Nebi who can talk and transform any man into a leading hero. But will his crash course in love be enough to win the heart of a pop star?
-This is a web drama based off the Korean webtoon.

Kpop: YG New Unit

Lee Hi and Suhyun (Akdong Musician) have formed a new unit called HI SUHYUN and have released the single "I'm Different" feat. Bobby (iKon).

The song is definitely one of my favourites this year along with Epik High's Born Hater.

The music video is also very fun and interesting; not to mention how good looking Bobby is in the music video!

New Mini-Drama

Be Arrogant

I recently found out about this Mini-drama when scrolling through Viki one day. 

The plot sounded interesting and I'm kind of a fan of Girl's Day (Kpop girl group) and saw Yura plays one of the main characters, so I decided to watch it. 

So far I've only watched 1 episode as I've been super busy with school assignments, but I can say it was pretty good and very interesting. I will definitely continue watching it along with my other list of dramas (view earlier posts) once Christmas break starts.

Where can you watch it?
