Here Comes 2017, Here Comes New Dramas!

As a year passed, a year then comes along. After enjoying such good dramas like Moon Lovers, Drinking Solo, Another Oh Hae Young, Doctors, W and many more in 2016, we will be welcomed by a brand new year with many upcoming dramas.

I will write the first half of the upcoming dramas, which will air on this January(I get the information from asianwiki and wikipedia).

By the way, I just list a short length drama which episodes are about 16 to 20.

Let's start with the earliest one~ (Do not forget to follow my instagram @sobat.drakor ~~~)

1. Voice

Released Date: January 14, 2017

Channel: OCN

Director: Kim Hong Sun (Pied Piper, Liar game)

Genre: Ma Jin Won

Genre: Action Suspense

Moo Jin-Hyuk (Jang Hyuk) was a popular detective who solved major cases, but after his wife was murdered by a serial killer his life spiraled down. He is filled with guilt that he was not able to protect his wife and he secretly looks for her killer.

Meanwhile, Kang Kwon-Joo (Lee Ha-Na) graduated at police academy with top marks. She began to work at an emergency 112 call center. Working there, a brutal murder case takes place and her father/police sergeant went to the crime scene. Her father is killed there and Kwon-Joo hears what happened over the phone. Afterwards, she goes to the U.S. to study and comes back to Korea as a professional voice profiler.

Detective Jin-Hyuk and Kang Kwon-Joo solve cases together. Chasing a serial killer responsible for the deaths of their family member.

If you a fan of Jang Hyuk and want to see him doing some action scenes, don't hesitate to watch this drama~ As you can see, the director has experiences in action movies, so we can have high expectation for this drama~

2. Introvert Boss

Released date: January 16, 2017

Channel: TvN

Director: Song Hyun Wook (Another Miss Oh, Marriage not dating)

Writer: Joo Hwa Mi (Marriage not Dating)

Genre: Romance, Comedy

Eun Hwan-Ki (Yeon Woo-Jin –Marriage not dating, Divorce lawyer in love) is the CEO of a public relations company, but he is extremely shy. Due to his personality, even his employees do not know him well.

Chae Ro-Woon (Park Hye-Soo –Age of youth, yongpal) begins work at Eun Hwan-Ki’s company. She is very energetic and receives recognition for her work, but her only interest is in CEO Eun Hwan-Ki. She plans to reveal who Eun Hwan-Ki really is.

Aaaaa~ here comes Yeon Woo Jin. He is popular for his roles in romantic comedy dramas. And yeah, he never disappointed me. He is naturally funny, and this roles will suit him I think. And for female lead, Park Hye Soo, I saw her in age of youth, and I love her character there. I hope she can do her best again in this drama.

And I realize that both director and writes have worked together before in marriage not dating, and I can say marriage not dating is a very good romantic comedy drama.

3. Missing nine

Released Date: January 18, 2017

Channel: MBC

Episode: 20

Director: Ashbun (Hotel King, Angry mom)

Writer: Han Jung Hoon (38 task forces, Bad Guys)

Genre: Disaster, Mystery, Melodrama

9 people from Legend Entertainment fly on a private plane to a concert. The 9 people consists of entertainers Seo Joon-O (Jung Kyoung-Ho), Choi Tae-Ho (Choi Tae-Joon), Ha Ji-A (Lee Sun-Bin), Lee Yeol (Chanyeol), Yoon So-Hee (Ryu Won) and staff members Ra Bong-Hee (Baek Jin-Hee), Jung Ki-Joon (Oh Jung-Se), Hwang Jae-Kook (Kim Sang-Ho), Tae Ho-Hang (Tae Hang-Ho). The plane then becomes involved in a mysterious crash. The 9 people survive, but are stranded on a deserted island.

4 months later, Ra Bong-Hee returns to South Korea as the only survivor & witness from the plane crash.

I see that there are many important casts here, since its title is missing 9, yeah the important characters here is 9. What I am waiting for is the acting of Chanyeol EXO. It is not his very first time, since he has played in naver line drama and chinese movie, but sure I am curious how he acts in this drama which has an unusual genre, disaster.

4. Defendant

Released Date: January 23, 2017

After playing in The Entertainer, Ji Sung is now ready to play in a suspense drama in SBS. Of course we can hope for thrilling scenes which can make us angry as we tears. Fighting, Ji Sung~

Those 4 are the dramas which I am eagerly waiting this month! With great casts and interesting story line. I hope those dramas will not disappoint me, or you, us.
