After a previous rather busy month , August will be quieter with a smaller number of K-Dramas that nevertheless remains varied. Our selection will include five dramas whose themes will be those of thriller, time travel and romance!
New K-Drama from August 2018
Lovely Horribly
러블리 호러블리
String: KBS2
Episodes: 32
Release period: August 13 to October 2, 2018
Synopsis :
Yoo Philip is a writer who can see ghosts. What he writes becomes reality. Ji Eul Soon finds himself bound to him by an unusual fate: the happiness of one leads to the misfortune of the other. They start working together and mysterious things happen around them.
With: PARK Si Hoo (My Golden Life), SONG Ji Hyo (Entourage), LEE Ki Kwang [BEAST] (Circle), HAM Eun Jung [T-ara] (Unique Daughters-in-Law)…
Our first series is not a romantic and fantasy comedy like the others. The mystery around the future couple already makes us curious. It is classified in the horror category because of the ghosts that will probably not be very sympathetic, if we rely on the scenario. The plot corresponds well to this time of year when being scared appeals to teenagers or adults!

The Ghost Detective
오늘의 탐정

We remain in the horror field for this drama between thriller, mystery and fantasy. A fairly classic pitch certainly but which brings its share of surprises and reflections. The cast and the story promise us good things in perspective. To the editors, we recommend it to lovers of suspense and thirsty for adrenaline!

We change register and here we are in the well-known register of melodrama. We will explore the fate of an heiress and the one who entrusted her place, as well as the desires and secrets surrounding these two women. An interesting story where the actresses will have to use their charms and talents to satisfy us. And since they are not beginners, there is no need to procrastinate. Go for it!

We were impressed by the first season, which was very violent and full of twists and turns. Unfortunately, we will not find Jang Hyuk but a new actor to replace him but the trailers keep the same approach. The world of the detective and the thriller are back in this second season.Let us hope that it will be at least as good. On our side, it is impossible not to follow it!

We end our little tour with a touch of humor in this romantic comedy embellished with a journey back in time. When nothing goes well in a couple, we would sometimes like to go back in time. This is the case of this couple in the routine for whom this chance is likely to play tricks on them, in addition to finding themselves facing potentially complex situations. A moment of rest is necessary in order to vary the pleasures!
