It's not on the list that's been circulating of 2025 tvN dramas to be simulcast on Netflix. The list was posted in February and has been accurate so far.
The remaining ones are: - Love, Take Two - Bon Appetit, Your Majesty - Typhoon Company - Pro Bono
Apparently Choi Minsik attended all the auditions for the role of Lee Kang. After Hyunwook’s audition, he was asked to share a meal with his sunbaenim. Later, Hyunwook found out that he was the first actor Choi Minsik had ever invited for a meal after an audition. 🥹
it doesn't really matter since they released all episodes at once
I prefer any drama of this genre to have longer episodes than just a speedy 35 min. Most of my favorite dramas in this genre are 50-70 min, and they were never draggy. Plus, I find it way worse when there's not enough time to properly flesh out the characters and do good world-building.

I don't see the relevance of your answer. It matters for everyone who prefers longer episodes. It's also much harder to achieve good episodic structure with several acts, a clear beginning and end, when the episodes are half of a normal kdrama episode.
Dramas that are just "a long movie" split into parts are not it. Just make a movie, then.
Who'd want to watch something that looks so dreary and depressing? Suggesting terminally ill people can't have moments of joy and happiness is insulting. Many live life to the fullest with the time they have left, sometimes even more so than the rest of us.
So again, I hope the drama is more full of life than its lifeless promo.
Every piece of promotional material I’ve seen from this makes it seem entirely self-serious and desperately dull. Hopefully the actual drama itself is better.
The fusion sageuk aspect with the time slip is probably my favorite part of this. I can't wait for her to blow his Joseon mind with modern dishes that aren't invented yet in that time period. What better way to win over a gourmet tyrant king than through amazing food? He's gonna fall first, I'm sure of it.
I feel like people are being too harsh on this drama ngl. It hasn't even aired yet. We haven't we gotten a teaser…
A lot of people on this site feel very strongly about young male actors being cast opposite more experienced actresses. It feels “off” to them because of their own personal preference of older male actors.
You see it every time this happens. People are complaining and saying oh they should’ve cast so and so [insert popular male actor between the ages of 35-45 here].
I guess it’s made worse here as they initially did cast an older male actor. But neither Chaemin nor Yoona deserve hate or preconceived notions just because someone couldn’t manage their Instagram account properly.
This is a pass for me. The problem for me is that the source material which is the basis for this sageuk, web…
Seems an odd thing to care about that the character is loosely based on some king that has been dead for centuries; they even changed the name. But you do you!
Since netflix dramas are getting shorter and shorter....old days was a minimal of 16 eps.. then again better short…
Netflix dramas are not "getting shorter". They've been consistent since they started making Korean content. Their K-originals are typically 6-12 episodes.
It’s so funny that all we get is them eating. Like we get it, they have lots of meals together. Hopefully not too often though because group scenes with meals are notoriously hard to film well and can easily get repetitive if overused. We’ll see, I guess.
