@whoosh #kDramaLooniesNominations2026

I watched more #cDrama in 2025 and only a few 2025 #kDrama - five total (plus one 2025 #kMovie). Of those 2025 Korean dramas, I'm nominating two for consideration, one is a #saguek.

The Tale Of Lady Ok
When Life Gives You Tangerines

@jcurries Btw, Gang Dong Won is scheduled to be in the 2026 #kDrama #saguek Soul with Kim Go Eun. Definitely looking forward to this one.
@EllenInEdmonton @jcurries In #kDrama #saguek #DongYi, which I liked, I think the majority of Dong Yi's lines are saying " jeonha" in various scenes (respectfully, lovingly, worriedly, sadly). I exaggerate, but still ... 🙃

@EllenInEdmonton @jcurries And, there's that.

전하 jeonha (Your Highness)

폐하 pyeha (Your Majesty)

Over and over ...

#kDrama #saguek

@EllenInEdmonton @jcurries Welcome to the unofficial #kDrama #saguek club! One historical will lead to another, and so on. 🙂
@jcurries Jumong is such a classic #kDrama. One of my favorites, too, and one of my earliest #saguek. Song Il Gook was absolutely wonderful to watch.

I'm going to watch the #kMovie Uprising (2024, Joseon #saguek) again, which I liked. I thought the ML looked familiar at the time but couldn't place him. And, DUH, it's Kang Dong Won (ML Tempest) looking ragged in long hair and a beard wielding a sword (still handsome, Netflix lists him as Gang Dong Won, again duh). It also stars Jin Seon Kyu, another favorite actor.

@AnnaAnthro This is a wonderful chronological list of #saguek #kdrama, and so extensive. Reviewing it right now for my references.

@stuffjolikes

@jcurries Yi San is one of my fave #saguek #kdrama.

The Tale Of Lady Ok (2024) is a very good well-acted fast-paced #saguek about social justice during the Joseon period, how it applied to her situation, and various people and conditions in the village she ends up in. I was unfamiliar with both leads but by the end I was very impressed with FL Im Ji Yeon as Lady Ok, and ML Choo Young Woo playing a double role. There were other strong performances from the supporting cast, especially Lee Jae Won as faithful Man Seok.
