I heard because of the conflict between one of the FL and her former agency this drama can't air until it's been sorted. so another drama has taken the april 1 slot...

FL from fangs of fortune ML from 12 letters but I don't know what this is about 

air date: basically CONFIRMED june 2

DROPPED watched 6. shaky plot with a supposedly smart FL who keeps getting beaten by the bad guys. production isn't great but isn't the worst i've seen either

school violence and the man who has to clean it up I think

air date: june 5

bai lu and RYAAAAAN~~~~ idk about the plot. might not be good. but ryan is shirtless again

air date: CONFIRMED june 9

I think it's a tomb raider thing set in republic era (gag) 

air date: RUMOR feb. now june 10-15 CONFIRMED june 11 because it randomly dropped today

NOT INTERESTED watched 2. Not very good. I don't know why I keep thinking these tomb raiding dramas will be good (they never are). The dubbing is terrible, the pacing is boring, and the tone is so off (jokey but also serious and sentimental). Also Kathleen is right and 2ML is....not a very good actor. He kind of does the same thing in every drama.

idk if I'll even like this. FL is from gen to gen and I really haven't liked her in anything (yet)

air date: RUMOR june 16 CONFIRMED june 16

idk. ML joseph and 17 FL from dream within a dream.

air date: CONFIRMED june 20
