Interesting, I didn't check out the list of upcoming movies, but I do check out kmovies with interesting plots

Glory Part 2, Taxi Driver 2, Queen Maker, Escape Of The Seven, Queen of the Mask and Cruel Intern. These all sound interesting.

Especially Glory Part 2, I'm currently obsessed with this drama. I have to watch Taxi Driver too. Queen of the Mask reminds me of Graceful Friends (which I haven't finished.) Escape of the Seven sounds interesting, I kinda like the "different people from all walks of life get tied to something sinister/crazy" trope. Queen Maker seems wholesome and I like Kim Hee-Ae, so I will watch it. Oh and Cruel Intern... yes.

@Sleepy Owl  hahaha - you don't know that @rocher22 oppa is WDH? It only means that you don't visit his thread here - LOL -  

 

For me, these (2) movies have good and interesting plots. "Unlocked" - A woman's life is turned upside-down after a dangerous man (Im Si Wan) gets a hold of her lost cell phone and uses it to track her every move. "The Match" - This is based on two real-life notable Go players. The film tells the story of Cho Hun-hyun, (Lee Byung Hun) a Go champion who discovers a gifted but untrained young boy Lee Chang-ho in an amateur contest. He takes him under his wing to turn into a professional player.

I vote for: Chronicles of Crime / Bait - Jang Geun Suk, Heo Sung Tae

 

[jongski]

 from the poll... it's Bloodhounds! check the thread.. lets discuss when it premiers

 

And then not on the poll but the one I'm looking forward  to......

 

Soompi and others have news reports about this already.. If confirmed.. the adapatation of "RickRoll'D".  This is a webtoon from the same author who of Sweet Home - Kim  Carnby.  This is her best more than "Sweet Home" and  I've always wanted to see drama version.  This is dark pycho thriller .

 

Below is the plot! cr: animelist/wikifandom

 

"The story revolves around Jin Seon, a highschool kid who was an accomplice with his serial killer dad. As Jin Seon falls in love with a girl who was next target spotted by his father. Here is an psychological thriller by Hwang Youngchan which tells this tale about predator, prey and the saviour."

 

There is nowhere that Seon Jin can find solace. At school, he is ruthlessly bullied due to his unsettlingly quiet nature and weak appearance. However, this is not the source of Jin's insurmountable terror: the thing that he fears more than anything else is his own father.

To most, Jin's father is a successful businessman, good samaritan, and doting parent. But that is merely a facade; in truth, he is a deranged serial killer—and Jin is his unwilling accomplice. For years, they have been carrying out this ruse with the police being none the wiser. However, when his father takes an interest in the pretty transfer student Yoon Kyun, Jin must make a decision—be the coward who sends her to the gallows like all the rest, or be the RickRoll'D of a son who defies his wicked parent.

 

 Thanks all! lets watch good dramas and enjoy them.

thanks for the list @Sleepy Owl; while there is no drama I am looking forward to in particular, at least the synopsis or poster looks interesting for some. hopefully it is far more interesting than 2022 where I only finished 2 dramas.

I am looking forward to this drama as well!!!

 

[ktcjdrama]

There are so many dramas that I don't know about. It's hard to keep track, but so far, I made the vote based only on what I've already known, and also based on the names of the leads I want to see 

[madmad min]

I forgot all the titles for reals, Let me just summarize the cast...

 

1. Lee Min Ho and Gong Hyo Jin

2. Kim Soo Hyun and Kim Ji Won

3. Shin Hye Sun and Ahn Bo Hyun

4. Woo Do Hwan and the SFL in 2521

5. Strong Girl Bong Soon Sequel?

6. Tale of the Nine Taled Prequel?

7. Wi Ha joon and Ji Chang Wook 

8. Lee Jun Ki in Chronicles 2

 

I am not bad with the names , I just forgot to remember all of the above for some reason lol...

Omo! I really wanted to vote for this but am so worried it won't live up to Strong Woman Do Bong Soon....

Uri Bong-Bong couple is just too precious

 

@madmad min chingu, did you also love them?

And which oppas are those, chingu? Any with abs? 

[lebeaucouple]

Thanks for the tagging @Sleepy Owl, @partyon, @confusedheart

 

For 2023 drama list, i will look forward for the sequel for the following:

• Taxi driver Part 2
• Glory Part 2
• Island Part 2
• Arthdal Chronicles Part 2
• Big Bet Part 2
• DP Part 2
• Sweet Home Part 2
• Tale of the Nine Tailed 1938
• The First Responders Part 2

I will watch :

• Love to Hate You - - Kim Ok Bin, Yoo Tae Oh (i like the 1st male lead since he acted in Arthdal Chronicles)
• Gyeongseong Creature - Park Seo Joon, Han So Hee (i understand that this drama will have sequel too)
• Queen of Tears - Kim Soo Hyun, Kim Ji Won

 

The rest of the drama depends on the storyline and the actors/actresses, it can be frustrating when the story is weak even when there are A-class actors in it.

Of course... but no abs will do too. Give me dimples, twinkly winks, sweet smiles, I'll watch too 

[RomanticRosebud]

Some sorta fantasy ones I'm looking forward. I know nothing in that genre or anything else will be as good as AoS/AoS 2 for me but Alchemy of Souls left me craving more fantasy, tho it's modern fantasy still and some slice of life dramas I guess..... Anyhoo this is my list:

 

1. Season of Kouduku

2. See You in My 19th Life

3. Oasis

4. Run into You

5. Heavenly Idol

6. Gyoseng Creature

7.  A Time Called You

 

and awaiting word on Lee Jae Wook and Go Youn Joung's next dramas.

Can't wait to watch some of them!
