The hit Korean drama S Line has officially come to an end with the release of its final two episodes (5 and 6). Since its debut, the six-episode series has gained massive global attention for its unique and controversial storyline that revolves around glowing red lines, mysterious lights that appear between people who have had sexual relationships.

S Line quickly rose to fame not just in South Korea but internationally, thanks to its gripping plot, strong performances, and casts. The drama, which premiered on TVING, became a breakout success after clips and scenes went viral on platforms like TikTok and Twitter, with fans dissecting each episode and creating memes, theories, and even discussions about what they would do if the red line existed in real life.

South Korean actor Choo Young Woo has made a major breakthrough this July by taking the top spot on the actor brand reputation rankings. This unexpected rise has surprised many fans and industry insiders, especially as he beat out veteran stars like Lee Jung Jae and Lee Byung Hun.

Choo, who currently stars in the romantic drama Head Over Heels, has been gaining steady attention for his emotional depth, natural acting, and charming on-screen presence. His recent roles have drawn praise not just for his visuals but for his growing skill and range as an actor. His latest performance appears to have struck a chord with viewers, helping to boost his overall image and popularity in the entertainment scene.

The brand reputation rankings, which are released monthly by the Korean Business Research Institute, are based on a mix of media coverage, consumer interest, and online engagement. Choo Young Woo’s name saw a rise in these areas this month, leading him to take the lead ahead of industry giants.

His fans have taken to social media to celebrate his achievement, calling it well-deserved and long overdue. Many believe this marks a turning point in his career, with more lead roles and bigger opportunities likely to follow.

South Korean actor Jo Jung-suk is returning to the big screen this summer with a new twist on the zombie genre. His upcoming movie, “My Daughter Is a Zombie”, contains comedy, family love, and fantasy, and it’s officially set to hit theaters across South Korea on July 30, 2025.

The film is based on a popular Naver webtoon by Lee Yun-chang and tells the story of Jeong-hwan, a devoted single father played by Jo Jung-suk. His life takes a wild turn when his daughter, Soo-ah (played by rising young actress Choi Yoo-ri), turns into a zombie during a global outbreak. But unlike others, Soo-ah still shows small signs of her old self, she remembers things, reacts emotionally, and still wants to dance. Refusing to give up on her, Jeong-hwan takes her back to their countryside hometown to keep her safe and help her recover in his own way.

Alongside them is Jeong-hwan’s mother, played by veteran actress Lee Jung-eun. As the strict but warm-hearted grandma, she’s ready to do anything to help her granddaughter even if it means hitting her with a traditional back-scratcher when needed. Together, the family embarks on a mission to bring back Soo-ah’s humanity.

The cast also includes Cho Yeo-jeong, who plays Yeon-hwa; Jeong-hwan’s old flame. She strongly believes Soo-ah is no longer human, setting the stage for emotional tension and tough decisions. Other roles are filled by actors like Yoon Kyung-ho and Park Hyo-joo, while even a fluffy cat makes a surprise appearance that has already caught fans’ attention in trailers.

The film stands out for its creative mix of genres.

It has laugh-out-loud moments, heart-tugging scenes, and a unique approach to what it means to be a zombie. The trailer alone features Soo-ah quietly asking her dad, “Can you wait a little longer for me?” This simple line has already left viewers emotional.
