KBS2’s upcoming drama “Cabbage Your Life” has released its first teaser! “Cabbage Your Life” follows the chaotic story about Sung Tae Hoon’s city family, who suddenly end up in Yeonriri village, as they struggle to return to Seoul. Park Sung Woong plays Sung Tae Hoon, the head of the household, who worked his way up to a corporate manager. But a sudden transfer forces him to move with his family to the rural village of Yeonriri. Sung Tae Hoon navigates a journey from city life to the countryside as he searches for true happiness. The teaser opens with a close-up of a man’s black shoes as he trudges along. The man is none other than Sung Tae Hoon. When he arrives at a field carrying black bags in both hands, he exclaims in disbelief, “Why am I here?” Breaking the fourth wall, Park Sung Woong narrates, “I signed the contract because they said they would change my image [as an actor], but it’s my first time burying cabbage instead of people.” Setting his bags down on the dirt, he looks out over the wide field, marking the city man Sung Tae Hoon’s first step into rural life. “Cabbage Your Life” premieres on March 26 at 9:50 p.m. KST.

Han Ji Min Dishes On Her Character In Upcoming Drama “The Practical Guide To Love”
Han Ji Min has shared her thoughts on her upcoming drama “The Practical Guide to Love”! “The Practical Guide to Love” tells the story of Lee Ui Yeong (Han Ji Min), a woman who dives into the world of blind dates after deciding to pursue love. When she meets Song Tae Seop (Park Sung Hoon) and Shin Ji Su (Lee Ki Taek), two men with strikingly different charms, she finds herself torn between them—prompting a journey to discover what true love really means. On why she chose to star in the drama, Han Ji Min shared, “I was drawn to the script because it portrays realistic stories and concerns about love that we often see around us, especially for people at a marriageable age.” She added, “Lee Ui Yeong’s greatest and most appealing trait is her honesty. Whether she is working, interacting with friends, meeting a blind date, or struggling with love, she never loses that honesty,” expressing her affection for the character. While Lee Ui Yeong thrives at work thanks to her competence and the trust of her colleagues, she has been stuck in a rut when it comes to dating. Han Ji Min explained, “Lee Ui Yeong feels like an ordinary person anyone could think of among their acquaintances. I personally thought of one or two friends like her as well.” She continued, “Focusing solely on work and then one day finding yourself thinking seriously about marriage feels like a natural life flow that many people go through. Lee Ui Yeong isn’t a flashy or extraordinary character—she feels more like a friend who could be right beside you, which makes her all the more appealing.” Han Ji Min also revealed that she resonated with Lee Ui Yeong’s relationship with her mother, Park Jung Im (Kim Jung Young). She shared that the character’s close, almost friend-like relationship with her mother resembles her own real-life relationship. She commented, “In real life, I often travel with my mother and we’re like friends. It made me think that I want to become even closer and more affectionate with her in the future.” Lastly, Han Ji Min shared what viewers should focus on in the drama, saying, “I hope viewers can comfortably follow Lee Ui Yeong’s emotions. The show realistically portrays the feelings we experience during cycles of meeting and breaking up, as well as the excitement, worries, and anxieties we face before a new love.” She concluded, “If you were Lee Ui Yeong, which choice would you make between Song Tae Seop and Shin Ji Su? I hope viewers will think about it from Lee Ui Yeong’s perspective.”
Lee Na Young Makes A Bold Live Broadcast Exposé Against Seo Hyun Woo In “Honour”
Lee Na Young will deliver a real-time exposé during a live broadcast in tonight’s episode of “Honour”! Based on a Swedish series, “Honour” is a mystery thriller that tells the story of three lawyers who confront a massive scandal from the past head-on. Lee Na Young, Jung Eun Chae, and Lee Chung Ah star as founding partners of the law firm L&J (Listen and Join), which specializes in representing victims of crimes against women. Spoilers The previous episode ended with Yoon Ra Young (Lee Na Young) falling into a trap orchestrated by Park Je Yeol (Seo Hyun Woo) and was forced into a tense, one-on-one confrontation with him in the darkness. Adding to the shock, another victim of sexual exploitation—whom Park Je Yeol had drawn into the secret app “Connect In” after receiving a suspended indictment—was discovered unconscious in a hotel room. The revelation of Park Je Yeol’s brutal domestic violence toward his wife Hong Yeon Hee (Baek Eun Hye) further fueled calls for justice against both him and the illicit prostitution app. In today’s episode, the showdown between Yoon Ra Young and Park Je Yeol will intensify as both are pushed to the brink. In the preview, Park Je Yeol delivers a chilling warning: “I gave you plenty of chances. Go ahead—let’s see you break.” Yet Yoon Ra Young refuses to back down. Standing once again before a live broadcast camera, she calmly declares, “There is a secret prostitution app. And a current prosecutor is involved,” publicly exposing the truth in real time. The explosive revelation, broadcast nationwide, is expected to shake the entire country. Watching the broadcast, Kang Shin Jae (Jung Eun Chae) and Hwang Hyun Jin (Lee Chung Ah) are left visibly shaken, underscoring the enormous fallout the exposé is likely to trigger. Meanwhile, Park Je Yeol—who has always maintained a composed facade—finally erupts in rage. Scenes of him losing control in his office and later appearing flustered as he is cornered by reporters hint at a cathartic turning point to come. Attention is now focused on whether Yoon Ra Young’s determined exposé can dismantle the powerful cartel surrounding both Park Je Yeol and “Connect In.” The production team commented, “Episode 8 will center on the aftermath of Yoon Ra Young’s decisive revelation and the situation Park Je Yeol finds himself in as a result. Viewers can also look forward to another thrilling ending that will raise the bar once again. Please don’t miss the broadcast.” Episode 8 of “Honour” will air on February 24 at 10 p.m. KST.
Park Jinyoung And Kim Min Ju’s Gazes Remain Filled With Deep Feelings In New Drama “Shining” Posters
JTBC’s upcoming Friday series “Shining” has unveiled new posters! “Shining” is a drama about young people who once shared a world of their own and gradually become each other’s source of trust and the light that guides their lives. The main poster shows a tender moment between Yeon Tae Seo (Park Jinyoung) and Mo Eun Ah (Kim Min Ju), sitting side by side on the subway. Bathed in the bright sunlight streaming through the window, they exchange warm looks, creating a feeling that is stronger and deeper than in the past. The affection between them, unchanged after more than a decade, brings a new kind of excitement, different from before. In particular, the phrase, “There are things that apply only to you and me. It’s possible because it’s you and me,” suggests that the world the two created together while sharing memories of their first love in childhood still holds true, even after all these years. Meanwhile, in the character posters, Yeon Tae Seo and Mo Eun Ah show a mix of loneliness and wistfulness. Yeon Tae Seo rides the subway, staring out the window, while Mo Eun Ah stands on the platform outside. In the brief moment their eyes meet, their faces show a complex mix of emotions. In addition, the phrase, “I met you again, the one I could never forget,” shows Yeon Tae Seo’s longing and unwavering feelings for Mo Eun Ah, while the phrase, “Can we be together?” reveals Mo Eun Ah’s subtle emotions as she imagines a different ending from their breakup 10 years ago. “Shining” is set to premiere on March 6 at 8:50 p.m. KST.
5 Tropes We Ate Up In Episodes 5-6 Of "Our Universe"
Episodes 5 and 6 of “Our Universe” really leaned into the rom-com tropes and clichés that make watching K-dramas so fun and comforting. They’re the kind of moments every longtime K-drama fan knows by heart: catching a cold after getting caught in the rain and the caretaking segment that follows (a bowl of water and a towel are absolutely required), the classic slip-into-his-arms, and love triangle shenanigans. But while these moves have been done before, “Our Universe” gave them their own spin rather than making them feel like boring carbon copies. Things just hit a little different when you’re juggling office drama, a curious toddler, and unresolved feelings with both your boss and your co-parenting roommate. Read on to see if you caught these five moments in episodes 5 and 6 of “Our Universe” that are quintessentially K-drama: Warning: episodes 5 and 6 spoilers ahead! 1. The lost-and-stranded side quest The show has a little search‑and‑rescue moment in the woods last week, and it starts with a camping trip that Hyun Jin (Roh Jeong Eui) and Woo Joo (Park Yu Ho) are invited to by a neighbor. After the recent hospital scare and the doctor’s suggestion to support Woo Joo’s mental health, Hyun Jin thinks it will be good for him to get outside and be around other kids. At this time, Hyun Jin and Tae Hyung (Bae In Hyuk) are once again on rocky terms ever since her manager, Yoon Seong (Park Seo Ham), found out about their living arrangement in a slightly embarrassing scenario. But their fights rarely last long. Because she feels bad about how it all played out and her hiding the truth, she invites Tae Hyung along to mend their relationship. The camping trip puts them on good terms again, but it doesn’t last. The miscommunication trope strikes: Tae Hyung overhears Hyun Jin talking about how awkward things have been living together, and it sounds like she’s almost relieved he’ll be moving out soon. He only catches the worst part and leaves before she gets to all the good things she actually says about him. This fuels another argument between the two. Hyun Jin proceeds to walk off, and it isn’t long before it is dark and they haven’t heard from her. As it so happens, Hyun Jin was on the phone when she went down a path that wasn’t meant to be taken and must have gotten lost and fallen along the way. After some running around and nearly having a heart attack, Tae Hyung finds Hyun Jin curled up on the ground with a minor leg injury. As if things couldn’t get worse, it immediately starts storming, so the two find quick shelter and wait out the rain before returning to camp. The search and rescue was quick and without serious injuries, but it definitely showed Hyun Jin just how reliable Tae Hyung is. If they’d been holed up together a little longer, it wouldn’t have been the worst thing for their relationship, but all’s well that ends well. 2. The rain-cold-care arc Getting caught in the rain can only mean one thing.After the bumpy end to their camping trip, the co-parents call it a night and head home early with Woo Joo. The next day, Tae Hyung develops a nasty cold, but he acts like it isn’t a big deal. Tae Hyung is so used to being left on his own that he says he is fine and tells Hyun Jin to just go out and continue with her normal plans, though she leaves very worried about him. It’s on this day that she has plans to meet with Yoon Seong for a work thing that is really more like a date. As his cold worsens, Tae Hyung unconsciously ends up waiting for her to return home. He thinks he’s been left alone again when he wakes up to see Hyun Jin has already been by his side. It’s at this point that Tae Hyung finally realizes his feelings for Hyun Jin. And he actually breaks a K-drama trope by not waiting to tell her. Tae Hyung confesses in such a simple and honest way, and it feels very on-character for him. It probably caught viewers off guard, just like it did Hyun Jin. 3. The dark alley scare Getting followed by a creepy guy in a dark alley is practically a K‑drama genre requirement at this point, and it’s a box last week’s episodes checked. If young adult life and parenthood weren’t already scary enough on their own, at the co-parents’ apartment complex, there has been a man targeting women living alone. He’s been said to tail them in the dark, and there was a break-in at their place just the other day, so the danger is real, and it’s close. Tae Hyung, being the reliable, quietly protective guy he is, tells Hyun Jin to head home on time and avoid wandering around alone, but she fails on day one. Hyun Jin accidentally falls asleep on the bus, forcing her to get off at a different stop and end up doing the exact thing she shouldn’t be doing: walking down a dark alley alone with a predator on the loose. She feels someone behind her as she is walking, but right before anything can happen, Tae Hyung steps in front of her. Thankfully, what starts as a scary moment ends in a cute one. Tae Hyung makes her promise to call him when she’s in need, and he’ll be there. 4. The slip-and-catch The K‑drama catch reflex might be overdone, but how these two get there is ridiculous in the best way. With the predator lurking around the apartment complex, Tae Hyung gives Hyun Jin a pepper spray just in case. He plays it off nonchalantly, but he’s clearly put a lot of thought into her safety. The problem is that neither of them really knows how the thing works. One wrong press and Tae Hyung ends up pepper-spraying himself in the eye. Cue the two of them sprinting upstairs like absolute clowns, trying to rinse it out while Tae Hyung is dying from the sting. Once they finally get it all out, all that water on the floor turns into the perfect setup for more chaos. Hyun Jin slips into Tae Hyung’s arms, and it definitely stirred up some feelings now that he’s openly confessed how he feels. 5. The love triangle There have already been hints that something might be happening between Yoon Seong and Hyun Jin after reconnecting as co‑workers at BS Foods. They liked each other back in college, but they never made it to the “let’s date” stage. Their reunion feels like a possible second chance: Yoon Seong keeps sending very obvious crush signals, and Hyun Jin’s effort to impress him shows she hasn’t totally let go of those old feelings. But there’s also Tae Hyung, who’s acting more and more like a good dad and, unlike Yoon Seong, he’s made his feelings for Hyun Jin crystal clear. Now that Yoon Seong knows about Hyun Jin’s living situation, all doors are open for him to get closer to her and scope out the competition. Right after the camping trip, Yoon Seong ends up paying her hospital bill for her leg injury, and they agree to grab dinner over the weekend with Woo Joo. After the main meal goes well, Yoon Seong asks if Hyun Jin wants to go for a second round at a cafe, but she’s worried about Tae Hyung, who was at this point sick from the camping trip. Instead, she returns home. With Tae Hyung’s confession and Yoon Seong being more forward, Hyun Jin has a lot to think about. But there’s no stopping this love triangle, especially now that Yoon Seong’s team is going to be working on a project with Amy Chu (Jin Seo Yeon), whom Tae Hyung now works for. And because this show knows how to make timing part of the comedy, their first company meeting is when an earlier misunderstanding decides to make a comeback. The side effect of Tae Hyung being at the office is that Hyun Jin’s coworkers quickly recognize that he is the “lobby guy” from the viral office clip when he surprised Hyun Jin at work with Woo Joo. The team goes out to dinner for team bonding, but that’s not exactly what happens for the leads. Yoon Seong and Tae Hyung spend the dinner pretty much sizing each other up, and Hyun Jin is stuck in the middle. The whole thing ends in a totally unserious bowling face-off while everyone else is blissfully unaware of the unspoken battle taking place. The petty rivalry is in full swing, and it’s fun watching these young adults be a little foolish in love after weeks of Hyun Jin and Tae Young healing from their loss and having to be responsible co-parents at the same time.
